Abstract
Solid-state nuclear track detectors (SSNTDs) are often used as ion detectors in laser-driven ion acceleration experiments and are considered to be the most reliable ion diagnostics since they are sensitive only to ions and measure ions one by one. However, ion pit analyses require tremendous time and effort in chemical etching, microscope scanning, and ion pit identification by eyes. From a laser-driven ion acceleration experiment, there are typically millions of microscopic images, and it is practically impossible to analyze all of them by hand. This research aims to improve the efficiency and automation of SSNTD analyses for laser-driven ion acceleration. We use two sets of data obtained from calibration experiments with a conventional accelerator where ions with known nuclides and energies are generated and from actual laser experiments using SSNTDs. After chemical etching and scanning the SSNTDs with an optical microscope, we use machine learning to distinguish the ion etch pits from noises. From the results of the calibration experiment, we confirm highly accurate etch-pit detection with machine learning. We are also able to detect etch pits with machine learning from the laser-driven ion acceleration experiment, which is much noisier than calibration experiments. By using machine learning, we successfully identify ion etch pits ∼105 from more than 10 000 microscopic images with a precision of ≳95%. A million microscopic images can be examined with a recent entry-level computer within a day with high precision. Machine learning tremendously reduces the time consumption on ion etch pit analyses detected on SSNTDs.

Abstract
The T2K experiment presents new measurements of neutrino oscillation parameters using 19.7 ( 16.3 ) × 10 20 protons on target (POT) in (anti-)neutrino mode at the far detector (FD). Compared to the previous analysis, an additional 4.7 × 10 20 POT neutrino data was collected at the FD. Significant improvements were made to the analysis methodology, with the near-detector analysis introducing new selections and using more than double the data. Additionally, this is the first T2K oscillation analysis to use NA61/SHINE data on a replica of the T2K target to tune the neutrino flux model, and the neutrino interaction model was improved to include new nuclear effects and calculations. Frequentist and Bayesian analyses are presented, including results on sin 2 θ 13 and the impact of priors on the δ CP measurement. Both analyses prefer the normal mass ordering and upper octant of sin 2 θ 23 with a nearly maximally CP-violating phase. Assuming the normal ordering and using the constraint on sin 2 θ 13 from reactors, sin 2 θ 23 = 0 . 561 - 0.032 + 0.021 using Feldman-Cousins corrected intervals, and Δ m 32 2 = 2 . 494 - 0.058 + 0.041 × 10 - 3 eV 2 using constant Δ χ 2 intervals. The CP-violating phase is constrained to δ CP = - 1 . 97 - 0.70 + 0.97 using Feldman-Cousins corrected intervals, and δ CP = 0 , π is excluded at more than 90% confidence level. A Jarlskog invariant of zero is excluded at more than 2 σ credible level using a flat prior in δ CP , and just below 2 σ using a flat prior in sin δ CP . When the external constraint on sin 2 θ 13 is removed, sin 2 θ 13 = 28 . 0 - 6.5 + 2.8 × 10 - 3 , in agreement with measurements from reactor experiments. These results are consistent with previous T2K analyses.

Abstract
We report a search for cosmic-ray boosted dark matter with protons using the 0.37 megaton×years data collected at Super-Kamiokande experiment during the 1996-2018 period (SKI-IV phase). We searched for an excess of proton recoils above the atmospheric neutrino background from the vicinity of the Galactic Center. No such excess is observed, and limits are calculated for two reference models of dark matter with either a constant interaction cross section or through a scalar mediator. This is the first experimental search for boosted dark matter with hadrons using directional information. The results present the most stringent limits on cosmic-ray boosted dark matter and exclude the dark matter-nucleon elastic scattering cross section between 10^{-33}cm^{2} and 10^{-27}cm^{2} for dark matter mass from 1 MeV/c^{2} to 300 MeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
Background The standard of care for unresectable, locally advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC) is chemoradiotherapy (CRT) followed by durvalumab, based on the PACIFIC study. Although multiple Japanese phase II studies have shown high efficacy and tolerability of CRT with cisplatin plus S-1 (SP), no prospective study using durvalumab after SP-based CRT has been reported. Objectives We conducted a multicenter phase II study of this approach, the interim analysis of which showed a high transition rate to durvalumab consolidation therapy. Here, we report the primary analysis results. Design In treatment-naïve LA-NSCLC, cisplatin (60 mg/m2, day 1) and S-1 (80-120 mg/body, days 1-14) were administered with two 4-week cycles with concurrent thoracic radiotherapy (60 Gy) followed by durvalumab (10 mg/kg) every 2 weeks for up to 1 year. Methods The primary endpoint was 1-year progression-free survival (PFS). The expected 1-year PFS and its lower limit of the 80% confidence interval (CI) were set as 63% and 47%, respectively, based on the results of TORG1018 study. Results In all, 59 patients were enrolled, with 51 (86.4%) proceeding to durvalumab. The objective response rate throughout the study was 72.9% (95% CI: 59.7-83.6%). After median follow-up of 21.9 months, neither median PFS nor OS was reached. The 1-year PFS was 72.5% (80% CI: 64.2-79.2%, 95% CI: 59.1-82.2%), while the 1-year overall survival was 91.5% (95% CI: 80.8-96.4%). No grade 5 adverse events were observed throughout the study. The most common adverse event during the consolidation phase was pneumonitis (any grade, 78.4%; grade ⩾3, 2.0%). Eventually, 52.5% of patients completed 1-year durvalumab consolidation therapy from CRT initiation. Conclusion This study of durvalumab after SP-based CRT met its primary endpoint and found a 1-year PFS of 73% from CRT initiation. This study provides the first prospective data on the prognosis and tolerability of durvalumab consolidation from the initiation of CRT.

Abstract
Particle counting analysis is a possible way to characterize GeV-scale, multi-species ions produced in laser-driven experiments. We present a multi-layered scintillation detector to differentiate multi-species ions of different masses and energies. The proposed detector concept offers potential advantages over conventional diagnostics in terms of (1) high sensitivity to GeV ions, (2) realtime analysis, and (3) the ability to differentiate ions with the same charge-to-mass ratio. A novel choice of multiple scintillators with different ion stopping powers results in a significant difference in energy deposition between the scintillators, allowing accurate particle identification in the GeV range. Here, we report a successful demonstration of particle identification for heavy ions, performed at the Heavy Ion Medical Accelerator in Chiba. In the experiment, the proposed detector setup showed the ability to differentiate particles with similar atomic numbers, such as C6+ and O8+ ions, and provided an excellent energy resolution of 0.41%-1.2% (including relativistic effect, 0.51%--1.6%).

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a frequent complication in cancer patients and is often detected as asymptomatic peripheral deep vein thrombosis (DVT). However, guidelines for peripheral DVT have not been established in either general cardiology or onco-cardiology. Furthermore, in cancer patients, it is generally considered difficult to administer standard doses of anticoagulants due to the high risk of bleeding caused by thrombocytopenic tendency during chemotherapy, as well as bleeding lesions such as gastrointestinal and gynecological cancers.
Treatment of peripheral DVT with direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) may minimize the worsening of bleeding and prevent the transition to proximal DVT.
Objective
The purpose of this study was to investigate the optimal treatment for peripheral DVT in cancer patients.
Methods
242 consecutive patients with peripheral DVT of the lower extremities (excluding complications of pulmonary thromboembolism or proximal DVT) were examined by venous ultrasound from April 2019 to March 2020. 190 patients could be followed up by ultrasound examination, for up to 2 years. The course of the DVT was retrospectively examined. In cases of anticoagulant therapy, standard and low dosage of DOACs were evaluated.
Results
142 patients were treated with anticoagulant (AC) therapy (group AC(+)), 48 patients were without AC therapy (group AC(−)). (4 of the 142 patients were treated with warfarin and the rest with DOACs).
DVT worsened in 8 patients (5.6%) in the AC(+) group and 23 patients (47.9%) in the AC(−) group. DVT worsening was significantly less in the AC(+) group (p<0.0001).
There were no cases of worsening to proximal type in the AC(+) group and 4 cases (17.4%) in the AC(−) group.
Of the 138 patients who used DOACs as AC therapy, 62 used half or less than the standard dose for maintenance (low-dose DOAC group), and 76 used the standard dose as maintenance (standard-dose DOAC group).
In the low-dose DOAC group, DVT worsened in 5 cases, remained unchanged in 7 cases, and improved in 50 cases. In the standard-dose DOAC group, there were 4 cases of worsening DVT, 3 cases of no change, and 69 cases of improvement. There was no significant difference in the DVT treatment effect between the two groups.
There were no thrombus-related deaths.
Conclusion
Peripheral DVT worsens in about half of cancer patients without anticoagulation, and 17% of these worsen to proximal VTE. In addition, low-dose DOACs are found to be as effective as standard-dose DOACs in treating peripheral DVT in cancer patients. Peripheral DVT treatment with low-dose DOACs can reduce the risk of bleeding complications and thrombus-related mortality in cancer patients and should be one of the supportive treatments for the completion of cancer management.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) requires life-long anticoagulant therapy, whereas limited data exist on the safety and efficacy of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) and vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) along with balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA).
Objectives
To evaluate outcomes and complications in CTEPH following BPA for individuals receiving DOACs or VKAs.
Methods
Consecutive CTEPH patients underwent BPA from September 2014 to August 2021 were included in a retrospective analysis. Complications during BPA, post-BPA hemodynamics and bleeding events were obtained from patient's medical records. Our routine follow-up “selective” pulmonary angiography, to evaluate all segmental pulmonary arteries one by one at six months and every year after final BPA session, was performed to elucidate the incidence of in-situ fresh floating thrombus.
Results
Of total 250 individuals, 104 were treated with DOACs and 146 with VKAs following BPA. Mean observation period was 905 (SD ± 660) days. Total 1278 BPA sessions were performed among the period in which 409 sessions were treated with DOACs and 869 sessions with VKAs. Significant improvements in hemodynamics and functional status were observed in both groups following BPA. There was no significant difference of hemoptysis during BPA between DOACs and VKAs (7.1% vs 10.1%, P=0.131). Major bleeding events during observation period were equivalent in those treated with DOACs and VKAs. No significant re-elevation of pulmonary artery pressure was observed in both groups after BPA. Follow-up selective pulmonary angiography identified in-situ fresh floating thrombus in pulmonary artery in 22 cases of total 769 follow-up sessions. The occurrence of fresh thrombus was significantly higher in those receiving DOACs than VKAs in therapeutic range of PT-INR >1.8 (3.9% vs 1.2%, P=0.023) whereas no significant difference between DOACs and overall VKAs (3.9% vs 2.4%, P=0.177)
Conclusions
Post-BPA hemodynamic outcomes and bleeding events appear unaffected by choice of anticoagulant. However, the incidence of in-situ pulmonary thrombosis detected by selective pulmonary angiography was significantly higher in those receiving DOACs than VKAs in therapeutic range, suggesting inadequate anticoagulation under current dose of DOACs. Our study provides a rationale for further examination to evaluate the efficacy of DOACs in CTEPH.

Abstract
UNLABELLED In patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis, prior osteoporosis treatment affected the bone mineral density increase of following treatment with 12 months of romosozumab, although it did not affect that of following treatment with 12 months of denosumab after romosozumab. PURPOSE To investigate the effects of prior osteoporosis treatment on the response to treatment with romosozumab (ROMO) followed by denosumab (DMAb) in patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis. METHODS In this prospective, observational, multicenter study, treatment-naïve patients (Naïve; n = 55) or patients previously treated with bisphosphonates (BP; n = 37), DMAb (DMAb; n = 45) or teriparatide (TPTD; n = 17) (mean age, 74.6 years; T-scores of the lumbar spine [LS] - 3.2 and total hip [TH] - 2.6) were switched to ROMO for 12 months, followed by DMAb for 12 months. Bone mineral density (BMD) and serum bone turnover markers were evaluated for 24 months. RESULTS A BMD increase was observed at 12 and 24 months in the following patients: Naïve (18.2% and 22.0%), BP (10.2% and 12.1%), DMAb (6.6% and 9.7%), and TPTD (10.8% and 15.0%) (P < 0.001 between the groups at both 12 and 24 months) in LS and Naïve (5.5% and 8.3%), BP (2.9% and 4.1%), DMAb (0.6% and 2.2%), and TPTD (4.3% and 5.4%) (P < 0.01 between the groups at 12 months and P < 0.001 at 24 months) in TH, respectively. The BMD increase in LS from 12 to 24 months was negatively associated with the levels of bone resorption marker at 24 months. Incidences of major fragility fractures for the respective groups were as follows: Naïve (5.5%), BP (16.2%), DMAb (11.1%), and TPTD (5.9%). CONCLUSIONS Previous treatment affected the BMD increase of following treatment with ROMO, although it did not affect that of following treatment with DMAb after ROMO.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Durvalumab was safe and effective in patients with unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) in a phase 3 trial (PACIFIC trial). Although a history of radiation pneumonitis (RP) has been reported to increase the risk of exacerbation of pneumonitis associated with programmed death-1 axis inhibitors, the detailed clinical results of durvalumab treatment in patients with baseline grade 1 RP were not reported in the PACIFIC trial. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of durvalumab therapy in these patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a multicenter prospective cohort study involving 35 patients. Patients were eligible if they met the following criteria: inoperable stage III NSCLC, administration of durvalumab within 42 days after CCRT using platinum-based chemotherapy, no disease progression after CCRT, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0-1, and presence of grade 1 RP at baseline. We assessed the effectiveness and safety of durvalumab with a minimum 1-year follow-up period for all patients. RESULTS Thirty-five patients were enrolled in our study from February 2019 to December 2019. The median progression-free survival was 11.4 months (95 % confidence interval, 7.1 months-not reached), and the median overall survival was not reached. Eleven (31 %) patients had grade ≥2 pneumonitis/RP, 10 (28 %) developed grade 2 pneumonitis/RP, and 1 (3 %) developed grade 5 pneumonitis/RP. Five (14 %) patients experienced treatment-related grade ≥3 adverse events. CONCLUSION Durvalumab might be safe and effective in patients with stage III NSCLC with baseline grade 1 RP following chemoradiotherapy.

Abstract
Particle counting analysis (PCA) with a multi-stage scintillation detector shows a new perspective on angularly resolved spectral characterization of GeV-scale, multi-species ion beams produced by high-power lasers. The diagnosis provides a mass-dependent ion energy spectrum based on time-of-flight and pulse-height analysis of single particle events detected through repetitive experiments. With a novel arrangement of multiple scintillators with different ions stopping powers, PCA offers potential advantages over commonly used diagnostic instruments (CR-39, radiochromic films, Thomson parabola, etc.) in terms of coverage solid angle, detection efficiency for GeV-ions, and real-time analysis during the experiment. The basic detector unit was tested using 230-MeV proton beam from a synchrotron facility, where we demonstrated its potential ability to discriminate major ion species accelerated in laser-plasma experiments (i.e., protons, deuterons, carbon, and oxygen ions) with excellent energy and mass resolution. The proposed diagnostic concept would be essential for a better understanding of laser-driven particle acceleration, which paves the way toward all-optical compact accelerators for a range of applications.

Abstract
PURPOSE Although the efficacy of programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) blockade is generally poor for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with activating mutations of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene, EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) may improve the tumor immune microenvironment. We performed a randomized study to assess whether nivolumab improves outcome compared with chemotherapy in such patients previously treated with EGFR-TKIs. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC who acquired EGFR-TKI resistance not due to a secondary T790M mutation of EGFR were randomized 1:1 to nivolumab (n = 52) or carboplatin-pemetrexed (n = 50). The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). RESULTS Median PFS and 1-year PFS probability were 1.7 months and 9.6% for nivolumab versus 5.6 months and 14.0% for carboplatin-pemetrexed [log-rank P < 001; hazard ratio (HR) of 1.92, with a 60% confidence interval (CI) of 1.61-2.29]. Overall survival was 20.7 and 19.9 months [HR, 0.88 (95% CI, 0.53-1.47)], and response rate was 9.6% and 36.0% for nivolumab and carboplatin-pemetrexed, respectively. No subgroup including patients with a high tumor mutation burden showed a substantially longer PFS with nivolumab than with carboplatin-pemetrexed. The T-cell-inflamed gene expression profile score (0.11 vs. -0.17, P = 0.036) and expression of genes related to cytotoxic T lymphocytes or their recruitment were higher in tumors that showed a benefit from nivolumab. CONCLUSIONS Nivolumab did not confer a longer PFS compared with carboplatin-pemetrexed in the study patients. Gene expression profiling identified some cases with a favorable tumor immune microenvironment that was associated with nivolumab efficacy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Osimertinib as first-line treatment for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring epidermal growth factor (EGFR) mutations remains controversial. Sequential EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) might be superior to the first line osimertinib in patients at risk of developing acquired T790M mutations. METHODS We enrolled consecutive patients with EGFR-mutated (deletion 19 or L858R) advanced NSCLC treated with first-line drugs and evaluated predictive markers using classification and regression tree (CART) for the detection of T790M mutations based on patient backgrounds prior to initial treatment. RESULTS Patients without acquired T790M mutations had worse outcomes than those with T790M mutations (median OS: 798 days vs. not reached; HR: 2.70; P < 0.001). CART identified three distinct groups based on variables associated with acquired T790M mutations (age, CYF, WBC, liver metastasis, and LDH; AUROC: 0.77). Based on certain variables, CART identified three distinct groups in deletion 19 (albumin, LDH, bone metastasis, pleural effusion, and WBC; AUROC: 0.81) and two distinct groups in L858R (age, CEA, and ALP; AUROC: 0.80). The T790M detection frequencies after TKI resistance of afatinib and first-generation EGFR-TKIs were similar (35.3% vs. 37.4%, P = 0.933). Afatinib demonstrated longer PFS (398 vs. 279 days; HR: 0.67; P = 0.004) and OS (1053 vs. 956 days; HR: 0.68; P = 0.051) than first-generation EGFR-TKIs. CONCLUSION Identification of patients at risk of acquiring T790M mutations after EGFR-TKI failure may aid in choice of first-line EGFR-TKI. Furthermore, afatinib may be the more effective 1st-line EGFR-TKI treatment for patients at risk of developing T790M as initial EGFR-TKI resistance.

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
In an experiment performed with a high-intensity and high-energy laser system, α-particle production in proton-boron reaction by using a laser-driven proton beam was measured. α particles were observed from the front and also from the rear side, even after a 2-mm-thick boron target. The data obtained in this experiment have been analyzed using a sequence of numerical simulations. The simulations clarify the mechanisms of α-particle production and transport through the boron targets. α-particle energies observed in the experiment and in the simulation reach 10-20 MeV through energy transfer from 20-30 MeV energy incident protons. Despite the lower cross sections for protons with energy above the sub-MeV resonances in the proton-boron reactions, 10^{8}-10^{9}α particles per steradian have been detected.

Abstract
9037 Background: Although the efficacy of antibodies to programmed cell death–1 (PD-1) appears to be less pronounced in patients with NSCLC harboring epidermal growth factor receptor gene ( EGFR) mutations, patients who develop disease progression (PD) to TKIs due to mechanisms other than secondary T790M mutation of EGFR might be more likely to benefit from NIVO. Here, we report the results of first randomized phase II trial to compare NIVO with the CbPEM in those population. Methods: Pts with advanced EGFR mt NSCLC who experienced PD after EGFR-TKIs were randomized 1:1 to NIVO or CbPEM. Eligibility criteria included the treatment history with TKIs as follow; no evidence of T790M after PD on 1st/2nd generation (gen) TKIs (A) after PD on 3rd gen TKIs as a 2nd line for T790M positive tumor (B) or 3rd gen TKIs as a front-line (C). The primary end point is progression-free survival (PFS) and biomarker analysis were included for exploratory analysis. Results: A total of 102 patients was randomized. Median PFS and overall survival (OS) were 1.7 and 20.7 months (mo), respectively, for NIVO arm (n = 52) versus 5.6 and 19.9 months for CbPEM (n = 50) (Hazard ratio [HR] = 1.92 and 0.88, respectively). Overall response rate and duration of response were 9.6% and 5.3 months for NIVO and 36.0% and 5.5 months for CbPEM. PD-L1 expression on tumor cells and tumor mutation burden (TMB) were evaluated in 77 (TPS 0%. 1-49%, > 50%, n = 46, 20, and 11) and 50 (Median TMB 6.2mt/mb). Immune-related gene expression profiling was under evaluation and the results will be demonstrated in the meeting. The efficacy of NIVO in PD-L1 strong positive (>50%, n = 8) and no evidence of T790M after PD on 1st/2nd gen TKIs (n = 29) was tended to be better than their counterparts. There was no significant correlation between TMB and the efficacy of NIVO. Pneumonitis was observed in one patient (1.0%) for NIVO arm and no new safety signals were noted. Conclusions: NIVO was not associated with longer PFS than CbPEM in selected pts with advanced EGFR mt NSCLC. OS was similar between groups. Baseline PD-L1 status and genetic alteration features may be relevant predictive markers to select pts who would benefit from NIVO. Clinical trial information: jRCTs051180133. [Table: see text]

Abstract
Introduction/Background Durvalumab demonstrated a good efficacy and safety in patients with unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) in the PACIFIC trial. Although a history of radiation pneumonitis (RP) has been reported to increase the risk of pneumonitis associated with programmed death-1 inhibitors, the safety and efficacy of durvalumab in patients with baseline Grade 1 RP have not been assessed. Therefore, we carried out a multicenter prospective cohort study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of durvalumab in these patients. Patients and Methods This was a multicenter prospective cohort study of 35 patients with Grade 1 RP after CCRT and before durvalumab initiation. This study was a first prespecified analysis for the first 20 patients with the primary objective of assessing the short-term safety; it was assessed 3 months after durvalumab initiation. Results Twenty patients were enrolled in this study between March 1, 2019, and September 3, 2019. Three patients (15%) experienced drug-related Grade ≥3 adverse events, while three patients (15%) had Grade ≥2 pneumonitis/RP within 3 months after durvalumab initiation. Three months after durvalumab initiation, all the patients were alive and four patients (20%) experienced disease progression. Conclusion Durvalumab can be a feasible treatment option for patients with stage III NSCLC with baseline Grade 1 RP following CCRT.(Trial registration number: UMIN000036061. The registration period was between March 2019 and December 2019.).

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Coronary flow reserve (CFR) reflects the functional capacity of microcirculation to adapt to blood demand during increased cardiac work.
Purpose
We tested the hypothesis that aging had impacts on coronary flow velocities and CFR in patients with no evidence of myocardial perfusion abnormality on single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT).
Methods and results
Seventy-six patients with no evidence of myocardial perfusion abnormality on SPECT undergoing transthoracic Doppler echocardiography were enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into three age groups: 17 patients aged <70 years (Group I), 38 patients aged 70–79 years (Group II), and 21 patients aged ≥80 years (Group III). Compared with Group I, CFR was significantly lower in Group II (P<0.01) and Group III (P<0.01). Multivariate analysis showed that female (P=0.03), cigarette smoking (P=0.004), hemoglobin level (P=0.001) and LV mass index (P=0.03) were determinants for resting coronary flow velocity. On the other hand, age (P=0.008), hemoglobin level (P<0.001) and LV mass index (P=0.04) were determinants for hyperemic coronary flow velocity. Age was only independent determinant for CFR (β=−0.48 P<0.001).
Conclusions
Our data suggested that aging impaired CFR in patients with no evidence of myocardial perfusion abnormality primarily due to the decrease in hyperemic coronary flow velocity.

Abstract
Electron antineutrino appearance is measured by the T2K experiment in an accelerator-produced antineutrino beam, using additional neutrino beam operation to constrain parameters of the Pontecorvo-Maki-Nakagawa-Sakata (PMNS) mixing matrix. T2K observes 15 candidate electron antineutrino events with a background expectation of 9.3 events. Including information from the kinematic distribution of observed events, the hypothesis of no electron antineutrino appearance is disfavored with a significance of 2.40σ and no discrepancy between data and PMNS predictions is found. A complementary analysis that introduces an additional free parameter which allows non-PMNS values of electron neutrino and antineutrino appearance also finds no discrepancy between data and PMNS predictions.

Abstract
Background Pembrolizumab is effective as first-line therapy against advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in patients with programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression levels ≥50% [1]. However, it is not effective in all patients, and the factors predicting responses among this population remain unknown. Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients with NSCLC and a PD-L1 tumor proportion score (TPS) > 50%, who received first-line monotherapy with pembrolizumab from February 1, 2017 to April 30, 2018. The study included 11 hospitals, which participated in the Hanshin Oncology clinical Problem Evaluation group (HOPE). We analyzed the differences between responders and non-responders in terms of age, sex, performance status score, degree of progression, histological type, smoking history, expression of PD-L1, use of steroids prior to treatment, metastasis site, and laboratory data. Results A total of 205 patients were included in this study. Of those, 108 patients exhibiting complete or partial response were defined as responders. Those exhibiting progressive disease (N = 52) were defined as non-responders. In the univariate analysis, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status score ≥ 2 (p = 0.0832), stage IV disease or recurrence (p = 0.0487), PD-L1 TPS 50–89% (p = 0.0657), use of steroids prior to the administration of pembrolizumab (p = 0.0243), malignant pleural effusion (p = 0.0032), and baseline C-reactive protein (CRP) levels > 1.0 mg/dL (p = 0.0390) were significantly associated with non-response to treatment. In the multivariate analysis, use of steroids prior to the administration of pembrolizumab (odds ratio [OR]: 5.86; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.32–31.8; p = 0.0200), malignant pleural effusion (OR: 2.68; 95% CI: 1.15–6.35; p = 0.0228), and baseline CRP > 1.0 mg/dL (OR: 2.17; 95% CI: 1.03–4.68; p = 0.0402) were significantly associated with non-response to treatment. Conclusion In real-world patients with NSCLC and a PD-L1 TPS ≥50%, use of steroids prior to treatment, malignant pleural effusion, and baseline CRP levels > 1.0 mg/dL reduced the response of first-line monotherapy with pembrolizumab.

Abstract
PURPOSE The impact of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) on the tumor immune microenvironment (TME) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is unclear. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We retrospectively identified 138 patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC who underwent rebiopsy after progression during EGFR-TKI treatment. PD-L1 and CD73 expression in tumor cells and tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) density at baseline and after progression were determined by IHC. Tumor mutation burden (TMB) was determined by next-generation sequencing. RESULTS The proportion of patients with a PD-L1 expression level of ≥50% (high) increased from 14% before to 28% after EGFR-TKI (P = 0.0010). Whereas CD8+ and FOXP3+ TIL densities were significantly lower after EGFR-TKI treatment than before, CD8+ TIL density was maintained in tumors with a high PD-L1 expression level. Expression of CD73 in tumor cells after EGFR-TKI treatment was higher than that before in patients with a high PD-L1 expression level. TMB tended to be higher after EGFR-TKI treatment than before (3.3→4.1 mutations/Mbp, P = 0.0508). Median progression-free survival for subsequent treatment with antibodies to PD-1 was longer for patients with a high than for those with a low PD-L1 expression after EGFR-TKI (7.1 vs. 1.7 months, P = 0.0033), and two of five patients whose PD-L1 expression level changed from low to high after EGFR-TKI treatment achieved a PFS of >6 months. CONCLUSIONS EGFR-TKI treatment was associated with changes in the TME of EGFR-mutated NSCLC, and such changes may provide clues for optimization of subsequent PD-1 inhibitor treatment.

Abstract
Influenza virus is activated by proteolytic cleavage of hemagglutinin by trypsin. After determining the optimal trypsin concentration, intracellular and extracellular influenza A/PR/8/34 (H1N1) and A/Victoria/361/2011 (H3N2) virus productions were compared in cultures treated with T-705 (favipiravir) and GS 4071 (an active form of oseltamivir). Although both drugs efficiently inhibited extracellular viral RNA release in a dose-dependent manner, T-705 inhibited it to the level of the inoculum without trypsin treatment, while GS 4071 inhibited it to a final level 10 times higher than that without trypsin. T-705 inhibited intracellular viral RNA production to the level of input virus in both trypsin-treated and untreated cells. In contrast, GS 4071 dose-dependently inhibited intracellular viral RNA production in cells treated with trypsin but allowed viral RNA synthesis. The level of maximum inhibition by GS 4071was 10 times higher than that of cells without trypsin and 1,000 times greater than the inoculum titer in cells without trypsin. T-705 inhibited both intracellular and extracellular virus production 1,000 and 10 times more strongly, respectively, than GS 4071. T-705 has powerful anti-influenza activity in the absence of trypsin and even in the trypsin-optimized growth condition, suggesting the therapeutic advantage in treatment of influenza complicated with bacterial pneumonia. Keywords: influenza; T-705; Tamiflu; trypsin; bacterial trypsin-like protease.

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
Objectives As first line therapy, pembrolizumab provides longer progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) than platinum doublets in programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1)-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with tumor propensity scores (TPS) ≥50%. However, clinical trials do not represent real-world patients. Materials and Methods This multicenter retrospective study conducted across 11 medical centers in Japan analyzed clinical data from patients receiving first-line pembrolizumab for NSCLC between February 1, 2017 and April 30, 2018. The efficacy, safety, and suitability of pembrolizumab monotherapy were evaluated. Results The median age of the 213 enrolled patients was 71 (range: 39-91) years. Among them, 176 (82.6%) were male, 20 (9.4%) were never smokers (median Brinkman index: 900), 172 (80.8%) had an ECOG PS of 0-1, 55 (25.8%) had squamous-cell carcinoma (SQ). PD-L1 TPS were 50-74%, 75-89%, and 90-100% in 97 (45.5%), 47 (22.1%), and 69 (32.4%) patients, respectively. Adverse events (AEs) of grades ≥3 were observed in 39 (18.3%) patients. Pneumonitis was the most common severe AE, occurring in 10 patients (4.7%) including 1 with grade 4 toxicity; no severe AE-related deaths occurred. The overall response rate, median PFS, and median OS was 51.2%, 8.3 months, and 17.8 months, respectively. On multivariate analysis, ECOG PS (0-1 vs. ≥2: HR: 1.69, 95.0% CI: 1.05-2.72; p = 0.03138), CRP/Alb (<0.3 vs. ≥0.3: HR: 1.92, 95.0% CI: 1.28-2.87; p = 0.00153), steroid usage (not usage vs. usage: HR: 2.94, 95.0% CI: 1.45-5.95; p = 0.00267), and PD-L1 TPS (50-89% vs. 90-100%: HR: 0.65, 95.0% CI: 0.43-1.00; p = 0.04984) were significantly and independently correlated with PFS of pembrolizumab. Conclusion The results confirm the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab in real-world patients. Poor PS and steroid usage at the time of commencing pembrolizumab treatment indicate poor outcomes. First-line pembrolizumab particularly benefits patients with PD-L1 TPS ≥90% or low inflammatory states (CRP/ALB<0.3).

Abstract
Background Pembrolizumab is currently approved as a first-line therapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with a programed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression ≥50%. However, the association between the efficacy of pembrolizumab and PD-L1 expression levels in patients with PD-L1 expression ≥50% has not been fully elucidated. Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients with advanced NSCLC and a PD-L1 tumor proportion score (TPS) of ≥50% who received pembrolizumab as a first-line therapy at 11 institutions in Japan between February 2017 and January 2018. Patients were divided into TPS 50–89% and TPS 90–100% (ultra-high PD-L1 expression) cohorts. Results In total, 149 patients were included: 99 (66.4%) and 50 (33.6%) patients were in the TPS 50–89% and TPS 90–100% cohorts, respectively. Baseline characteristics were similar between the TPS 90–100% and TPS 50–89% cohorts. The objective response rates (ORR) in the TPS 90–100% and TPS 50–89% cohorts were 58.0% and 46.5%, respectively (p = 0.23). Time to treatment failure (TTF) was longer in the TPS 90–100% cohort than in the TPS 50–89% cohort (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.67, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.42–1.07; p = 0.09). Although TTF within 120 days after the initiation of pembrolizumab therapy was comparable between both cohorts (p = 0.54), TTF after 120 days was significantly longer in the TPS 90–100% cohort than in the TPS 50–89% cohort (HR: 0.22, 95% CI: 0.06–0.87; p = 0.031). Immune related adverse events of grade 3 or more occurred in 16.0% and 19.2% of patients in the TPS 90–100% and TPS 50–89% cohorts, respectively. Conclusions The patients with an ultra-high PD-L1 expression continued pembrolizumab therapy longer, driven by a reduced risk of treatment failure in the late phase. PD-L1 expression levels might be a predictive biomarker of a first-line immunotherapy benefit in the late phase among NSCLC patients with TPS ≥50%.

Abstract
To identify the precise molecular processes to induce DNA lesions, we attempt a novel spectroscopy of X-ray induced luminescence (XIL) using soft X-ray synchrotron radiation, which is a non-destructive analysis of the reaction intermediates in the elementary reaction pathway of damage induction and self-organized restoration. Using a liquid micro-jet technique to introduce aqueous samples in a vacuum chamber, we measure UV-visible luminescence from nucleotide solution as a function of the soft X-ray energy from the nitrogen to oxygen K-edge region. The XIL intensities for the nucleotide solutions are significantly enhanced in the soft X-ray region (410-530 eV) which is ascribed to the K-shell excitation/ionization of nitrogen atoms in the nucleobases. Furthermore, the XIL spectra do not show any signature of X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) of the nucleobases. This is because the luminescence intensities collected from the integral area of the micro-jet only reflect the quantum yield of luminescence of the absorbed X-ray into UV-visible light irrespective of the absorption cross sections, i.e. of XANES. Thus the present result is the first evidence of luminescence as a result of X-ray absorption of aqueous nucleotides.

Abstract
Background Although the cause of acute eosinophilic pneumonia (AEP) has not yet been fully clarified, cigarette smoking is reported to be a risk factor for developing AEP. The heat-not-burn cigarette (HNBC) was developed to reduce the adverse effects of smoke on the user's surroundings. However, the health risks associated with HNBCs have not yet been clarified. We report a successfully treated case of fatal AEP presumably induced by HNBC use. Presentation of case A 16-year-old man commenced HNBC smoking two weeks before admission and subsequently suffered from shortness of breath that gradually worsened. The patient was transferred to emergency department and immediately intubated because of respiratory failure. Computed tomography showed mosaic ground-glass shadows on the distal side of both lungs with a PaO2/FIO2 ratio of 76. The patient required veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for severe respiratory failure. He was diagnosed with AEP by clinical course and detection of eosinophils in sputum; thus, methylprednisolone was administrated. The patient was weaned off ECMO four days after initiation and extubated the day after. He fully recovered without sequelae. Conclusion As far as we know, our patient is the first case of AEP induced by HNBC use successfully treated with ECMO. Emergency physicians must be aware that HNBCs can induce fatal AEP. The use of heat-not-burn cigarettes has been increasing in recent years. The effects of heat-not-burn cigarettes on health have not yet been clarified. Heat-not-burn cigarettes possibly induce acute eosinophilic pneumonia. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation was effective in a patient with a severe case of acute eosinophilic pneumonia.

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
INTRODUCTION Nivolumab is effective in the treatment of previously treated patients with advanced NSCLC. However, its radiological evaluation is challenging because of atypical patterns of response such as pseudoprogression. We examined the characteristics and outcomes of previously treated patients with NSCLC who were treated with nivolumab and experienced development of pseudoprogression. METHODS We conducted a 15-center retrospective cohort study of previously treated patients with advanced NSCLC who received nivolumab monotherapy. For the patients who showed pseudoprogression, we defined progression-free survival 1 (PFS1) as the time to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors-defined first progressive disease and progression-free survival 2 (PFS2) as the time to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors-defined second progressive disease or death. RESULTS Among the 542 patients included, 20% and 53% showed a typical response and progression, respectively. Of the 14 (3%) patients who showed pseudoprogression, most (n = 10) showed a response within 3 months of nivolumab treatment. The median PFS1 and PFS2 were 1.0 and 7.3 months, respectively. The median PFS2 was significantly shorter in the patients who showed pseudoprogression than the PFS of the patients with a typical response (p < 0.001). In contrast, patients showing pseudoprogression had significantly longer overall survival than did patients showing typical progression (p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Pseudoprogression was uncommon, and the duration of response in patients who showed pseudoprogression was shorter than that in patients who showed a typical response. However, the survival benefit of pseudoprogression was markedly better than that of typical progression. Further research is required to elucidate the characteristics of and mechanisms underlying pseudoprogression.

Abstract
The T2K experiment measures muon neutrino disappearance and electron neutrino appearance in accelerator-produced neutrino and antineutrino beams. With an exposure of 14.7(7.6)×10^{20} protons on target in the neutrino (antineutrino) mode, 89 ν_{e} candidates and seven anti-ν_{e} candidates are observed, while 67.5 and 9.0 are expected for δ_{CP}=0 and normal mass ordering. The obtained 2σ confidence interval for the CP-violating phase, δ_{CP}, does not include the CP-conserving cases (δ_{CP}=0, π). The best-fit values of other parameters are sin^{2}θ_{23}=0.526_{-0.036}^{+0.032} and Δm_{32}^{2}=2.463_{-0.070}^{+0.071}×10^{-3} eV^{2}/c^{4}.

Abstract
A search for boosted dark matter using 161.9 kt yr of Super-Kamiokande IV data is presented. We search for an excess of elastically scattered electrons above the atmospheric neutrino background, with a visible energy between 100 MeV and 1 TeV, pointing back to the Galactic center or the Sun. No such excess is observed. Limits on boosted dark matter event rates in multiple angular cones around the Galactic center and Sun are calculated. Limits are also calculated for a baseline model of boosted dark matter produced from cold dark matter annihilation or decay. This is the first experimental search for boosted dark matter from the Galactic center or the Sun interacting in a terrestrial detector.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Nivolumab has been shown to be effective and safe in previously treated patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, little is known regarding its performance in real-world (i.e., non-trial) settings. Furthermore, nivolumab efficacy is unknown in patients who are ineligible for clinical trials or who are categorized into small subgroups in such trials. METHODS We conducted a 15-center, observational, retrospective cohort study of patients with advanced NSCLC who received nivolumab monotherapy between January and December 2016. RESULTS Of 613 patients included in our study, 141 had poor performance status (PS) and 106 were EGFR mutation - or ALK rearrangement-positive. The response and disease control rates were 20% and 44%, respectively; the estimated 1-year progression-free survival (PFS) was 18%. Multivariate analysis identified never smoking, poor PS, and EGFR mutation/ALK rearrangement as independent negative predictors of PFS. The most frequently reported grade ≥3 adverse event was pneumonitis (5% of patients). Severe pneumonitis (grade ≥3) occurred significantly earlier than mild pneumonitis (1.6 vs. 2.3 months, P = 0.031). Patients with pneumonitis achieved higher response rates and longer PFS than those without (37% vs. 18%, and 5.8 vs. 2.1 months, respectively; P = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS Smoking status, PS, and EGFR mutation/ALK rearrangement were independent predictors of PFS. Our study elucidated nivolumab's efficacy in previously underreported patient populations; i.e., those with poor PS and/or with driver oncogenes. We also found that pneumonitis is not infrequent, and carries key implications for outcomes. These data should be useful for improving the clinical courses of nivolumab-treated patients with NSCLC.

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
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to examine the relationships among subjective well-being, food and health behaviors, socioeconomic factors, and geography in chronically ill older Japanese adults living alone. DESIGN The design was a cross-sectional, multilevel survey. A questionnaire was distributed by post and self-completed by participants. SETTING The sample was drawn from seven towns and cities across Japan. PARTICIPANTS A geographic information system was used to select a representative sample of older people living alone based on their proximity to a supermarket. Study recruitment was conducted with municipal assistance. MEASUREMENTS To assess subjective well-being and food and health behaviors of respondents with disease, a logistic regression analysis was performed using stepwise variable analyses, adjusted for respondent age, socioeconomic status, and proximity to a supermarket. The dependent variable was good or poor subjective well-being. RESULTS In total, 2,165 older people (744 men, 1,421 women) completed the questionnaire (63.5% response rate). Data from 737 men and 1,414 women were used in this study. Among people with a chronic disease, individuals with good subjective well-being had significantly higher rates than those with poor subjective well-being for satisfaction with meal quality and chewing ability, food diversity, food intake frequency, perception of shopping ease, having someone to help with food shopping, eating home-produced vegetables, preparing breakfast themselves, eating with other people, and high alcohol consumption. A stepwise logistic analysis showed that the factors strongly related to poor subjective well-being were shopping difficulty (men: odds ratio [OR] = 3.19, 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.94-5.23; P < 0.0001; women: OR = 2.20, 95% CI, 1.54-3.14; P < 0.0001), not having someone to help with food shopping (women: OR = 1.41, 95% CI, 1.01-1.97; P = 0.043), not preparing breakfast (women: OR = 2.36, 95% CI, 1.40-3.98; P = 0.001), and eating together less often (women: OR = 1.99, 95% CI, 1.32-3.00; P = 0.002). CONCLUSION Subjective well-being of people with chronic diseases is associated with food intake and food behavior. The factors that affect poor subjective well-being in chronically ill older Japanese people living alone include food accessibility and social communication.
