Abstract
Pathophysiological analysis and drug discovery targeting human diseases require disease models that suitably recapitulate patient pathology. Disease-specific human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) differentiated into affected cell types can potentially recapitulate disease pathology more accurately than existing disease models. Such successful modeling of muscular diseases requires efficient differentiation of hiPSCs into skeletal muscles. hiPSCs transduced with doxycycline-inducible MYOD1 (MYOD1-hiPSCs) have been widely used; however, they require time- and labor-consuming clonal selection, and clonal variations must be overcome. Moreover, their functionality should be carefully examined. Here, we demonstrated that bulk MYOD1-hiPSCs established with puromycin selection rather than G418 selection showed rapid and highly efficient differentiation. Interestingly, bulk MYOD1-hiPSCs exhibited average differentiation properties of clonally established MYOD1-hiPSCs, suggesting that it is possible to minimize clonal variations. Moreover, disease-specific hiPSCs of spinal bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) could be efficiently differentiated via this method into skeletal muscle that showed disease phenotypes, suggesting the applicability of this method for disease analysis. Finally, three-dimensional muscle tissues were fabricated from bulk MYOD1-hiPSCs, which exhibited contractile force upon electrical stimulation, indicating their functionality. Thus, our bulk differentiation requires less time and labor than existing methods, efficiently generates contractible skeletal muscles, and may facilitate the generation of muscular disease models.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle atrophy is characterized by decreases in protein content, myofiber diameter, and contractile force generation. As muscle atrophy worsens the quality of life, the development of anti-atrophic substances is desirable. In this study, we aimed to demonstrate a screening process for anti-atrophic peptides using photo-cleavable peptide array technology and human contractile atrophic muscle models. We developed a 96-well system, and established a screening process with less variability. Dexamethasone-induced human atrophic tissue was constructed on the system. Eight peptides were selected from the literature and used for the screening of peptides for preventing the decrease of the contractile forces of tissues. The peptide QIGFIW, which showed preventive activity, was selected as the seed sequence. As a result of amino acid substitution, we obtained QIGFIQ as a peptide with higher anti-atrophic activity. These results indicate that the combinatorial use of the photo-cleavable peptide array technology and 96-well screening system could comprise a powerful approach to obtaining anti-atrophic peptides, and suggest that the 96-well screening system and atrophic model represent a practical and powerful tool for the development of drugs/functional food ingredients.

Abstract
Studying spin-momentum correlations in hadronic collisions offers a glimpse into a three-dimensional picture of proton structure. The transverse single-spin asymmetry for midrapidity isolated direct photons in p^{↑}+p collisions at sqrt[s]=200 GeV is measured with the PHENIX detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). Because direct photons in particular are produced from the hard scattering and do not interact via the strong force, this measurement is a clean probe of initial-state spin-momentum correlations inside the proton and is in particular sensitive to gluon interference effects within the proton. This is the first time direct photons have been used as a probe of spin-momentum correlations at RHIC. The uncertainties on the results are a 50-fold improvement with respect to those of the one prior measurement for the same observable, from the Fermilab E704 experiment. These results constrain gluon spin-momentum correlations in transversely polarized protons.

Abstract
Engineered three-dimensional models of neuromuscular tissues are promising for use in mimicking their disorder states in vitro. Although several models have been developed, it is still challenging to mimic the physically separated structures of motor neurons (MNs) and skeletal muscle (SkM) fibers in the motor units in vivo. In this study, we aimed to develop microdevices for precisely compartmentalized coculturing of MNs and engineered SkM tissues. The developed microdevices, which fit a well of 24 well plates, had a chamber for MNs and chamber for SkM tissues. The two chambers were connected by microtunnels for axons, permissive to axons but not to cell bodies. Human iPSC (hiPSC)-derived MN spheroids in one chamber elongated their axons into microtunnels, which reached the tissue-engineered human SkM in the SkM chamber, and formed functional neuromuscular junctions with the muscle fibers. The cocultured SkM tissues with MNs on the device contracted spontaneously in response to spontaneous firing of MNs. The addition of a neurotransmitter, glutamate, into the MN chamber induced contraction of the cocultured SkM tissues. Selective addition of tetrodotoxin or vecuronium bromide into either chamber induced SkM tissue relaxation, which could be explained by the inhibitory mechanisms. We also demonstrated the application of chemical or mechanical stimuli to the middle of the axons of cocultured tissues on the device. Thus, compartmentalized neuromuscular tissue models fabricated on the device could be used for phenotypic screening to evaluate the cellular type specific efficacy of drug candidates and would be a useful tool in fundamental research and drug development for neuromuscular disorders.

Abstract
Background:Biologic disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) have demonstrated that proinflammatory cytokines such as interleukin (IL-) 6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) play important roles in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Other cytokines, such as type I interferons (IFNs), are also implicated in its pathogenesis (ref 1). However, the complete picture of the cytokine network involved in RA remains to be elucidated.Objectives:By quantifying sets of cytokines in the serum of RA patients before and after treatment with various biologic DMARDs, we sought to determine the effects of drugs on (A) type I IFNs, (B) soluble IL-6 receptors, and (C) other cytokines.Methods:52 patients with RA were treated with various biologic DMARDs (tocilizumab (TOC): 16, abatacept (ABT): 15, and TNF inhibitors (TNFi): 21). Serum samples were obtained (1) before, (2) approximately 4 weeks after (3) and approximately 12 weeks after the initiation of treatment. A suspension bead-array system was used for analysis; Bio-Plex Human Cytokine 17-plex Assay kits and Express Custom Panels (Bio-Rad), including IFN-β, IFN-α2, soluble IL-6 receptor α (sIL6Rα) and gp130 were used.Results:(1) As expected, the disease activity score 28-joiny count (DAS28) using the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) significantly decreased in all three groups (TOC, ABT and TNFi) by 12 weeks.(2) IFN-α2 was barely detected in the serum samples. IFN-β seemed to increase slightly in the ABT group, but the increase was not statistically significant.(3) The levels of sIL6Rα did not change substantially. Those of gp130 decreased slightly but significantly in the TOC group by 12 weeks.(4) The levels of IL-6 decreased significantly in the ABT group by 12 weeks. Those in the TNFi group decreased significantly at 4 weeks but not 12 weeks (Fig. 1A).(5) The levels of IL-7 decreased significantly only in the TOC group (Fig. 1B).Conclusion:(1) The biologic DMARDs tested in this study did not significantly affect the serum levels of type I IFNs in this study.(2) The decrease in gp130 in the TOC group may imply that gp130 is induced by IL-6, although whether this level of decrease has physiological significance is open to question.(3) Serum IL-6 was significantly decreased in the TNFi group at 4 weeks but not 12 weeks. TNF has been reported to induce IL-6 (ref 2), but negative feedback loop(s) may be present. Such a feedback system might make the discontinuation of TNFi difficult, even if patients are in remission.(4) IL-7 may be a target of IL-6. A higher level of IL-7 has been reported to be present in the joints of RA patients compared with osteoarthrosis and it is a cytokine implicated in the differentiation of osteoclasts (ref 3). This may partly explain the effect of TOC on preventing bone erosion in RA.References:[1]Ann Rheum Dis. 2007; 66: 1008–14[2]Rheumatology 2007; 46: 920-6[3]Rheumatology 2008; 47: 753-9Acknowledgments:We thank all the members of the Division of Rheumatology and Clinical Immunology, Department of Medicine, Jichi Medical University.

Abstract
We report on the nuclear dependence of transverse single-spin asymmetries (TSSAs) in the production of positively charged hadrons in polarized p^{↑}+p, p^{↑}+Al, and p^{↑}+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV. The measurements have been performed at forward rapidity (1.4<η<2.4) over the range of transverse momentum (1.8<p_{T}<7.0 GeV/c) and Feynman x (0.1<x_{F}<0.2). We observed positive asymmetries for positively charged hadrons in p^{↑}+p collisions, and significantly reduced asymmetries in p^{↑}+A collisions. These results reveal a nuclear dependence of TSSAs for charged-hadron production in a regime where perturbative techniques are applicable. These results provide new opportunities to use p^{↑}+A collisions as a tool to investigate the rich phenomena behind TSSAs in hadronic collisions and to use TSSAs as a new handle in studying small-system collisions.

Abstract
Asymmetric nuclear collisions of p+Al, p+Au, d+Au, and ^{3}He+Au at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV provide an excellent laboratory for understanding particle production, as well as exploring interactions among these particles after their initial creation in the collision. We present measurements of charged hadron production dN_{ch}/dη in all such collision systems over a broad pseudorapidity range and as a function of collision multiplicity. A simple wounded quark model is remarkably successful at describing the full data set. We also measure the elliptic flow v_{2} over a similarly broad pseudorapidity range. These measurements provide key constraints on models of particle emission and their translation into flow.

Abstract
Human pluripotent stem cells, including human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs), serve as highly valuable sources for both cell-based therapies and basic research, owing to their abilities to self-renew and differentiate into any cell type of the human body. However, tumorigenic risks of residual undifferentiated stem cells limit the clinical application of hiPSCs, necessitating methods to eliminate undifferentiated hiPSCs from differentiated cells. Here, we found that undifferentiated hiPSCs were more sensitive to the treatment with a medium supplemented with high concentration of L-alanine than human fibroblasts (hFBs), human skeletal muscle cells (hSkMCs), hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes (iCMs) or hiPSC-derived fibroblast-like cells (iFLCs), which were used as differentiated cells. Undifferentiated hiPSCs co-cultured with differentiated cells were selectively eliminated following treatment. In addition, we found that the medium supplemented with high concentration of D-alanine or β-alanine also induced cell death of hiPSCs and the treatment at 4 °C didn't induce cell death of hiPSCs. The cell death induced would be associated partly with high osmotic pressure of the medium supplemented with L-alanine. As L-alanine is a component of proteins in human body and popular ingredient of cell culture media, treatment with high concentration of L-alanine may be useful for eliminating tumorigenic residual hiPSCs for stem cell-based therapies.

Abstract
This study was performed to investigate the clinical characteristics of lupus enteritis in Japanese patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). A total of 481 patients with SLE admitted to our hospital between 2001 and 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. Diagnosis of lupus enteritis was based on the following three criteria: (1) abdominal symptoms, (2) diffuse long-segment bowel thickening and (3) a requirement for glucocorticoid therapy. Lupus enteritis was identified in 17 patients (3.5%) and there were two distinct types: small intestine-dominant and large intestine-dominant. Significant differences between the two types were noted with respect to the age, frequency of biopsy-proven lupus nephritis, frequency of rectal involvement, maximum bowel wall thickness, and requirement for steroid pulse therapy. Among patients with large intestine-dominant lupus enteritis, 60% had extra-intestinal symptoms (hydroureter, bladder wall thickening, and bile duct dilatation) that are known complications of intestinal pseudo-obstruction. Two patients with large intestine-dominant lupus enteritis developed intestinal pseudo-obstruction either before or after diagnosis of lupus enteritis. Five patients (29%) developed recurrence during a median observation period of 7.2 years (1.4-14.4 years). In conclusion, large intestine-dominant lupus enteritis resembles intestinal pseudo-obstruction and these two diseases may have a common pathogenesis.

Abstract
Abstract
[Background] Axilla surgery in node-positive breast cancer is dramatically changing from axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) to sentinel node biopsy (SNB). From the results of ACOSOG Z0011, IBCSG23-01 and AMAROS trials, adjuvant therapy and regional node irradiation could reduce regional lymph node recurrence for sentinel node-positive breast cancer patients. However, optimal indication of SNB alone remains uncertain. Trial design: To evaluate the outcome of sentinel node-positive breast cancer patients, the Japanese Society for Sentinel Node Navigation Surgery (SNNS) conducted a prospective cohort study in 2013 (UMIN000011782, Jpn J Clin Oncol, p.876-9, 2014). [Eligibility criteria] For eligible patients, SNB was performed or scheduled after 1 January 2012. Then 1 to 3 positive micrometastases or macrometastases in sentinel lymph nodes are confirmed by histological or molecular diagnosis. Primary chemotherapy before or after SNB is also acceptable for registration. [Specific aims] The primary endpoint is the 5-year recurrence rate of regional lymph node in patients treated with SNB alone. The secondary endpoint is the 5-year overall survival rate of this cohort. Patients treated with SNB followed by ALND are also registered simultaneously to compare the prognosis. The propensity score matching (PSM) is used to make the distributions of baseline risk factors comparable. [Statistical method] Based on an estimated recurrence rate of 5% at 5 years among patients treated with SNB alone, 240 patients are needed to give a 80% power to reject the null hypothesis that the recurrence rate is 10% with a one-sided type I error rate of 2.5%. If we consider that some patients will be lost to follow-up or become ineligible, a total of 250 patients will be needed to comprise the sample. [Present accrual] Eight hundred and eighty patients who underwent SNB alone or SNB followed by ALND were registered from 27 participating institutes between 2013 and 2016. Data cleaning is being performed. Patient's background and PSM will be reported.

Abstract
Background: Pertuzumab provided overall and progression-free survival (PFS) benefits in HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer patients (pts) in the CLEOPATRA (Clinical evaluation of docetaxel, pertuzumab and trastuzumab) study. However, few studies have described the efficacy of other drugs in combination with pertuzumab plus trastuzumab. Here, we present a pre-specified analysis of eribulin in combination with pertuzumab plus trastuzumab as first- and second-line therapy for advanced or metastatic breast cancer (AMBC) in a multicenter, open-label phase II study (UMIN000012232, JBCRG-M03).
Methods: HER2-positive AMBC with no or single prior chemotherapy for AMBC were enrolled. All pts were administered trastuzumab and taxane as adjuvant or first-line chemotherapy. Treatment consisted of eribulin 1.4 mg/m2 on days 1 and 8 of a 21-day cycle and trastuzumab (8 mg/kg loading dose, then 6 mg/kg) plus pertuzumab (840 mg/body loading dose, then 420 mg/ body) once every 3 weeks, all administered intravenously. The primary endpoint was PFS, and secondary endpoints included overall response rate (ORR) and safety. PFS was determined using Kaplan–Meier analysis. Tumor response was assessed according to RECIST ver. 1.1.
Results: Fifty pts were enrolled from November 2013 to April 2016. Forty-nine pts were eligible for safety analysis and the full analysis set (FAS) included 46 pts. The median age was 56 years (23–70), and 8 (16%) and 41 (84%) pts were treated in first- and second-line settings, respectively. Eleven pts (23.9%) were de-novo Stage 4, and 35 pts (76.1%) had progressed in metastatic disease after completion of local therapy. Median PFS was 9.3 months (M) (95% confidence interval [CI]: 6.4–12.3). Table 1 shows the efficacy data for each treatment line and includes ORR, complete response rate (CR), partial response rate (PR), stable disease rate (SD), progressive disease rate (PD), not evaluable rate (NE) and PFS in the FAS. The median relative dose intensities of eribulin, trastuzumab, and pertuzumab were 93.3% (77.0%–100%), 100% (96.0%–100%), and 100% (89.7%–100%), respectively, in the FAS. The grade 3/4 adverse events (AE) were neutropenia in 5 pts (10.2%), including 2 pts (4.1%) with febrile neutropenia; hypertension in 3 pts (6.1%), and other AEs in only one patient. The average of the ejection fraction did not decrease significantly. Symptomatic left ventricular systolic dysfunction was not observed.
Conclusion: In pts with HER2-positive AMBC, first- and second-line therapy of eribulin in combination with pertuzumab plus trastuzumab demonstrated substantial antitumor activity with an acceptable safety profile. We are planning a phase III study comparing eribulin with taxanes in combination with pertuzumab plus trastuzumab for the treatment of HER2-positive AMBC.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Obesity and insulin resistance are associated with inferior levels of chemosensitivity and overall prognosis for breast cancer (BC) treatment. Recent studies suggest that the quality and quantity of visceral adipose tissue (VAT) play a significant role in adipocyte function, and are related to insulin resistance. We therefore tested the hypothesis that high amount and low quality of VAT worsen treatment outcomes via insulin resistance mechanisms.
Patients and Methods: We examined two independent studies: a cross-sectional study (cohort 1) and a retrospective study (cohort 2). Cohort 1 included 106 women with early-stage BC who were undergoing surgery. Patients with normal weight (17.5< body mass index [BMI, kg/m2] ≤25, n = 53) and overweight/obese patients (BMI >25, n = 53) were selected by a pair-matching method. Insulin resistance was evaluated by HOMA-R: fasting insulin (microU/L) × fasting glucose (nmol/L)/22.5. And insulin-like growth factor (IGF) family including IGF-1 and IGF-binding protein 3 (IGFBP3) were measured before beginning treatment. The amounts of visceral fat (aVAT) was measured by 3-dimensional volumetric software using the stocked computed tomography (CT) imaging data. The quality of VAT was assessed based on the mode value of CT Hounsfield Unit of VAT (VAT-HU) at navel level of CT axial view. The association between the former variables and the quality and quantity of VAT was analyzed. Cohort 2 included 271 patients who received chemotherapy in the neo-adjuvant (NAC) or adjuvant setting. Imaging analysis was performed in the same way, and the association between those values and survival outcome after chemotherapy was analyzed by retrospective chart review.
Results: In cohort 1, aVAT was significantly correlated with serum insulin and HOMA-R levels (Pearson's R 0.44 and 0.42, respectively; P<0.05). On comparing the two groups divided by BMI, the levels of IGF-1 and IGFBP3 were not significantly different between the normal weight and the overweight/obese groups (P = 0.31 and 0.77, respectively). However, the overweight/obese group demonstrated significantly higher HOMA-R (P<0.05). In cohort 2, aVAT was significantly correlated with BMI (P<0.05). In a multivariate analysis, pathological complete responses were not associated with aVAT (P = 0.60). After a median follow-up of 112 months, tertile stratification revealed that the third tertile of aVAT had a significantly shorter distant disease free survival (DDFS) in the NAC setting (p<0.05). When adjusted by covariates in the Cox proportional regression model, aVAT and VAT-HU demonstrated significant contribution to a worsened DDFS ([p<0.05, hazard ratio {HR} 1.39; 95% confidence interval {CI} 1.11 to 1.75] and [p<0.05, HR 1.20, 95% CI 1.01 to 1.43], respectively).
Conclusions: Our study found that high amounts and low quality of VAT worsen treatment outcomes. Furthermore, we found that insulin resistance was related to those two factors. Although further validation is needed, our present work suggests the importance of evaluating the quality and quantity of visceral fat for estimating insulin resistance and treatment outcomes after chemotherapy for patients with early-stage BC.

Abstract
Recently, multiparticle-correlation measurements of relativistic p/d/^{3}He+Au, p+Pb, and even p+p collisions show surprising collective signatures. Here, we present beam-energy-scan measurements of two-, four-, and six-particle angular correlations in d+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200, 62.4, 39, and 19.6 GeV. We also present measurements of two- and four-particle angular correlations in p+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV. We find the four-particle cumulant to be real valued for d+Au collisions at all four energies. We also find that the four-particle cumulant in p+Au has the opposite sign as that in d+Au. Further, we find that the six-particle cumulant agrees with the four-particle cumulant in d+Au collisions at 200 GeV, indicating that nonflow effects are subdominant. These observations provide strong evidence that the correlations originate from the initial geometric configuration, which is then translated into the momentum distribution for all particles, commonly referred to as collectivity.

Abstract
During 2015, the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) provided collisions of transversely polarized protons with Au and Al nuclei for the first time, enabling the exploration of transverse-single-spin asymmetries with heavy nuclei. Large single-spin asymmetries in very forward neutron production have been previously observed in transversely polarized p+p collisions at RHIC, and the existing theoretical framework that was successful in describing the single-spin asymmetry in p+p collisions predicts only a moderate atomic-mass-number (A) dependence. In contrast, the asymmetries observed at RHIC in p+A collisions showed a surprisingly strong A dependence in inclusive forward neutron production. The observed asymmetry in p+Al collisions is much smaller, while the asymmetry in p+Au collisions is a factor of 3 larger in absolute value and of opposite sign. The interplay of different neutron production mechanisms is discussed as a possible explanation of the observed A dependence.

Abstract
Human pluripotent stem cells, including human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs), are promising materials for regenerative medicine and cell transplantation therapy. However, tumorigenic potential of residual undifferentiated stem cells hampers their use in these therapies. Therefore, it is important to develop methods that selectively eliminate undifferentiated stem cells from a population of differentiated cells before their transplantation. In the present study, we investigated whether plasma-activated medium (PAM) selectively eliminated undifferentiated hiPSCs by inducing external oxidative stress. PAM was prepared by irradiating cell culture medium with non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma. We observed that PAM selectively and efficiently killed undifferentiated hiPSCs cocultured with normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDFs), which were used as differentiated cells. We also observed that undifferentiated hiPSCs were more sensitive to PAM than hiPSC-derived differentiated cells. Gene expression analysis suggested that lower expression of oxidative stress-related genes, including those encoding enzymes involved in hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) degradation, in undifferentiated hiPSCs was one of the mechanisms underlying PAM-induced selective cell death. PAM killed undifferentiated hiPSCs more efficiently than a medium containing the same concentration of H2O2 as that in PAM, suggesting that H2O2 and various reactive oxygen/nitrogen species in PAM selectively eliminated undifferentiated hiPSCs. Thus, our results indicate that PAM has a great potential to eliminate tumorigenic hiPSCs from a population of differentiated cells and that it may be a very useful tool in regenerative medicine and cell transplantation therapy.

Abstract
Enzymatic hydrolysates were prepared from commercially available kamaboko type samples using three gastrointestinal proteases and protein proteases. The yields of these hydrolysates were about 10–31% and these protein contents ranged from 62 to 533 g/mg per sample powder on their wet weight basis. The hydrolysates showed higher antioxidative activities and scavenging activities against active oxygen species such as hydroxyl radical and superoxide anion radical. Moreover, these hydrolysates exhibited high angiotensin I-converting enzyme inhibitory activites that were similar or higher than those from various fermented foods such as fish sauce, sake, soy sauce, vinegar, miso and natto. The antioxidative and antihypertensive activities of commercially available kamaboko type samples were not related to the colour of the samples. The results indicated that enzymatic hydrolysates from commercially available kamaboko type samples, whose health benefits are scientifically supported, have the potential to be an increasingly important component of a healthy lifestyle and to be beneficial to the public and the food industry.

Abstract
Dynamic helical CT-guided needle localization of non-palpable and mammographically occult breast lesions is described. Dynamic helical CT-technique enabled fast volume scanning of the whole breast during the early contrast enhancement phase, which provided sufficient contrast to localize the target lesions. The procedures were successfully completed without complications.

Abstract
Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is the commonest cause of flaccid paralysis worldwide. Miller Fisher syndrome (MFS) is a variant of GBS characterized by ophthalmoplegia and ataxia. Together GBS and MFS form a continuum of discrete and overlapping subtypes, the frequency of which remains unknown. We retrospectively analysed the clinical features (antecedent symptoms, pattern of neurological weakness or ataxia, presence of hypersomnolence) of 103 patients at a single hospital in Japan. Patients were then classified according to new diagnostic criteria (Wakerley et al., 2014). Laboratory data (neurophysiology and anti-ganglioside antibody profiles) were also analysed. According to the new diagnostic criteria, the 103 patients could be classified as follows: classic GBS 73 (71%), pharyngeal-cervical-brachial weakness 2 (2%), acute pharyngeal weakness 0 (0%), paraparetic GBS 1 (1%), bifacial weakness with paraesthesias 1 (1%), polyneuritis cranialis 0 (0%), classic MFS 18 (17%), acute ophthalmoparesis 1 (1%), acute ptosis 0 (0%), acute mydriasis 0 (0%), acute ataxic neuropathy 1 (1%), Bickerstaff brainstem encephalitis 3 (3%), acute ataxic hypersomnolence 0 (0%), GBS and MFS overlap 1 (1%), GBS and Bickerstaff brainstem encephalitis overlap 1 (1%), MFS and pharyngeal-cervical-brachial weakness overlap 1 (1%). Application of the new clinical diagnostic criteria allowed accurate retrospective diagnosis and classification of GBS and MFS subtypes.

Abstract
Transvenous embolization of venous compartments within the venous sinus wall was the method initially attempted for closing dural arteriovenous fistulas in 15 patients (22 sinuses). The venous channel, separate from the sinus lumen and located in the venous sinus wall, could be embolized in 6 lesions (3 patients), including 3 superior sagittal sinus fistulas, 2 transverse sinus fistulas, and 1 straight sinus fistula. This technique resulted in closure of the fistulas and preservation of sinus patency as well as immediate improvement of clinical symptoms. The embolizable venous compartment of the fistula within the venous sinus wall could be detected by preoperative angiography, magnetic resonance imaging, and intraoperative venography. This unique drainage of dural arteriovenous fistulas may develop concurrently with more obvious portions of the fistula. Transvenous embolization of these venous compartments can close the fistulas and normalize impaired sinus function.

Abstract
MicroRNAs were first discovered as small endogenous RNA molecules and some viruses have been reported to interact with host miRNAs. By investigating miRNA expression in serum derived from HBV-infected patients, we have clarified the relationship between miRNA expression and chronic HBV infection. Additionally, we demonstrate the use of miRNAs as both novel biomarkers and new therapies against HBV. We included the sera of 20 patients with chronic HBV infection, sera of 20 patients with HCV infection and sera of 10 healthy controls in this study. The miRNA libraries were sequenced using a 32-mer single end sequence. The validation study of circulating miRNA in serum was conducted by qRT-PCR. The HBV genomic regions of genotype B and genotype C that were speculated to be targeted by miRNA were constructed using complementary oligonucleotides in the vectors. Reporter assays were performed 48 h after transfection. The expression levels of 21 miRNAs were found to be differentially expressed in the three groups. 10 miRNAs (hsa-miR-100-5p, miR-125b-5p, miR-193b-3p, miR-194-3p, miR-30a-3p, miR-30c-2-3p, miR-3591-5p, miR-4709-3p, miR-574-3p and miR-99a-5p) were found to be upregulated in CH-B by deep sequence analysis. The computer analysis showed that two regions of HBsAg are potential targets of miR-125b-5p and miR-30c-2-3p and that these miRNAs may downregulate the expression of HBV-S. The HBV genotype C segment speculated to be targeted by hsa-miR-125b-5p significantly decreased the expression of the reporter. This study indicated that expression of miR-125b-5p was related to the etiology of chronic hepatitis B infection and regulated the expression of HBsAg.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to examine the clinical outcomes of immediate breast reconstruction using perforator flaps from different donor sites, and to characterize the trends among these flaps. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 136 consecutive patients who underwent immediate breast reconstruction using free flaps after skin-sparing mastectomy (SSM) or nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM). The whole breast was pathologically analyzed in 5-mm sections. Breast reconstruction was performed using the deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap, gluteal artery perforator (GAP) flap, and posterior medial thigh perforator (PMTP) flap. Patient characteristics were compared among donor sites. RESULTS NSM was converted to SSM because of intraoperative subareolar tumor positivity in 7 of 107 patients. Eleven patients had positive margins in permanent sections. All but one patient had a positive horizontal margin in the peripheral direction. The 5-year recurrence-free survival rate was 91.9%. The locoregional recurrence rate was 5.1% with a mean follow-up observation period of 75 months. DEIP, GAP, and PMTP flaps were used in 64 (47.1%), 38 (27.9%), and 34 (25.0%) patients, retrospectively. DIEP flaps were used in older patients and those with a higher body mass index. GAP flaps were used in younger patients. DIEP and GAP flaps were used for larger breasts, and PMTP flaps for smaller breasts. CONCLUSION NSM or SSM with immediate perforator flap breast reconstruction is an oncologically acceptable surgical option. We believe that age, desire to have children, body mass index, and excised breast volume are valuable factors for selecting the optimal donor site.

Abstract
Background: On the basis of our recent findings of oncogenic KRAS-induced interleukin-8 (IL-8) overexpression in non-small cell lung cancer, we assessed the clinicopathological and prognostic significances of IL-8 expression and its relationship to KRAS mutations in lung adenocarcinomas. Methods: IL-8 expression was examined by quantitative RT–PCR using 136 of surgical specimens from lung adenocarcinoma patients. The association between IL-8 expression, clinicopathological features, KRAS or EGFR mutation status and survival was analysed. Results: IL-8 was highly expressed in tumours from elderly patients or smokers and in tumours with pleural involvement or vascular invasion. In a non-smokers' subgroup, IL-8 level positively correlated with age. IL-8 was highly expressed in tumours with KRAS mutations compared with those with EGFR mutations or wild-type EGFR/KRAS. Lung adenocarcinoma patients with high IL-8 showed significantly shorter disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) than those with low IL8. DFS and OS were significantly shorter in the patients with mutant KRAS/high IL-8 than in those with wild-type KRAS/low IL-8. Cox regression analyses demonstrated that elevated IL-8 expression correlated with unfavourable prognosis. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that IL-8 expression is associated with certain clinicopathological features including age and is a potent prognostic marker in lung adenocarcinoma, especially in oncogenic KRAS-driven adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
Abstract We report a case of hypocalcemic myopathy confounded by polymyositis due to an elevated level of serum creatine kinase (CK). A 30-year-old man was referred to our hospital for the treatment of provisionally diagnosed polymyositis. His presentation with tetany, hyporeflexia, and general fatigue, in addition to muscle weakness on admission, prompted us to scrutinize a blood sample in search of secondary myopathy. Blood chemistry revealed an elevated level of serum CK, marked hypocalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, and a low serum level of intact parathyroid hormone. The Ellsworth Howard test confirmed the diagnosis of hypoparathyroidism. Supplementation with calcium and 1α-hydroxyvitamin D3 improved his muscle weakness rapidly, and his serum CK level returned to the normal range. Hypoparathyroidism should be included in differential diagnoses of elevated serum CK.

Abstract
The authors conducted a multiinstitutional phase II study to establish a postsurgical combined chemotherapy and radiation therapy regimen for patients with primary germ cell tumors of the brain. After surgical debulking of the tumor and histological verification, patients were divided into three therapeutic groups: good prognosis, intermediate prognosis, and poor prognosis. Patients received two kinds of chemotherapy (three courses) prior to receiving radiation therapy: carboplatin-etoposide combination ([CARB-VP]: carboplatin 450 mg/m(2) on Day 1, etoposide 150 mg/m(2) on Days 1-3) or ifosphamide-cisplatin-etoposide combination ([ICE]: ifosphamide 900 mg/m(2), cisplatin 20 mg/m(2), and etoposide 60 mg/m(2) on Days 1-5). Patients in the good prognosis group (those with germinomas) were treated with CARB-VP followed by local radiation therapy (24 Gy). Patients in the intermediate prognosis group received CARB-VP followed by local radiation therapy (50 Gy); they received five additional chemotherapy treatments. Patients in the poor prognosis group received ICE followed by whole craniospinal radiation therapy; they also received five additional chemotherapy treatments. Eighty-two patients were evaluated. For the 56 patients with germinomas, a 93% rate of complete remission after treatment was achieved. The remission rate was 76% for 21 patients in the intermediate prognosis group, and no recurrence was detected during a median follow-up period of 2.6 years. In the group of five patients with poor prognosis, the disease in three patients progressed during chemotherapy or radiation therapy and they died within 6 months. There were no serious complications in the surviving patients. The authors found their treatment protocols to be currently effective for patients with germinomas and those with an intermediate prognosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Most thoracic surgeons encounter atypical cases or unexpected situations that usually lead them to convert minimally invasive surgery to open thoracotomy. But are there other options besides open surgery? The purpose of this study was to suggest a video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) classification system and present tips for the application of VATS to atypical cases or unexpected situations. We have categorized VATS procedures for atypical cases or unexpected situations into two groups: the modification of techniques/instruments and the creation of additional access incisions. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed VATS with optional additional techniques. We used direct visualization or monitoring as the situation demanded, switching back and forth between the monitor and direct vision. RESULTS Of the 33 cases we reviewed, 27 patients had malignant lung disease and 6 had benign lung disease. All patients underwent lobectomies including one or more of the following: bronchoplasty (n = 12), control of the main pulmonary artery (n = 9), total adhesiotomy (n = 7), combined resection with the diaphragm (n = 3), and separation of totally fused fissures (n = 2). The mean length of the skin incision was 8 cm, the mean total operating time was 208 min, and the mean blood loss was 173 mL No operative or hospital deaths occurred. CONCLUSIONS Veteran surgeons can instinctively deal with intraoperative variance, but we frequently see inexperienced surgeons panic and change the course of their procedures. A VATS classification system may have educational benefits for newer surgeons. We believe that the creation of a categorized coping plan will help inexperienced surgeons deal with unanticipated problems.
