Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate whether the knee adduction moment (KAM) could be reduced by a short instruction in the Draw-in (DI) maneuver in healthy adults, and whether knee joint function would improve with a longer DI gait intervention in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). METHOD In Study 1, healthy adults received 10 minutes supervised instruction in DI gait in and then practiced the gait independently for 10 minutes. Three-dimensional motion analysis measurement was performed in each phase. In Study 2, patients with OA performed a 20-minute DI gait intervention daily for 6 weeks. At baseline and after 6 weeks, knee pain, the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, the MOS 8 item Short-Form Health Survey, thoracic kyphosis angle, knee joint range of motion, knee extension muscle strength, hip abduction muscle strength, and activity level were evaluated. RESULTS In Study 1, the DI gait to decrease KAM could be learning following only 10 minutes of instruction and 10 minutes of self-practice in healthy adults. In Study 2, knee pain was reduced by 19 % and the thoracic kyphosis angle was reduced by 2.6° after 6 weeks. No significant changes in other parameters were detected, and the implementation rate was 86 ± 14 %. SIGNIFICANCE In healthy adults, DI gait instruction for 10 minutes of instruction and 10 minutes of self-practice reduced the KAM. In patients with knee OA, 20 minutes of DI gait per day for 6 weeks may reduce knee pain and thoracic kyphosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) The current study aims to propose a nomogram-based 2- and 3-years survival prediction model for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma treated by definitive radiotherapy using pretreatment computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (FDG PET) radiomic features and dosiomics features in addition to the common clinical factors using multi-institution data. MATERIALS/METHODS Data of 112 patients from one institution and 28 patients from the other institution were retrospectively collected. Radiomics and dosiomics features were extracted using five segmentations on CT and PET images and dose distribution. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) with logistic regression was used to select radiomics and dosiomics features by calculating the radiomics and dosiomics scores (Rad-score and Dos-score), respectively, in the training model. The predictive clinical factors, Rad-score, and Dos-score were identified to develop a nomogram model. RESULTS We extracted 15219 features from the radiomics and dosiomics analysis. By LASSO Cox regression analysis, 13 CT-based radiomics features, 11 PET-based radiomics features, and 19 dosiomics features were selected. Clinical factors of T-stage, N-stage, and clinical stage were selected as significant prognostic factors by univariate Cox regression analysis. A predictive nomogram for prognosis in was established using these factors. In the external validation cohort, the C-index of the combined model of CT-based radiomics, PET-based radiomics, and dosiomics features with clinical factors were 0.74, 0.82, and 0.92, respectively. Moreover, we divided the cohort into high-risk and low-risk groups using the median nomogram score. Significant differences in overall survival (OS) in the combine model of CT-based radiomics, PET-based radiomics, and dosiomics features with clinical factors were observed between the high-risk and low-risk groups (P = 0.019, P = 0.038, and 0.014, respectively). CONCLUSION The current study established and validated 2- and 3-year survival prediction models based on radiomics and dosiomics features with clinical factors. The prediction model with dosiomics analysis could better predict OS than CT- and PET-based radiomics analysis in esophageal cancer patients treated with radiotherapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Chemoradiotherapy is often the treatment of choice for cervical esophageal cancer due to the invasiveness of surgery. However, toxicity after chemoradiotherapy often affects the quality of life related to swallowing and speech. This study evaluated laryngoesophageal dysfunction-free survival (LEDFS) in patients with cervical esophageal cancer, which has recently been used in head and neck cancer. MATERIALS/METHODS We analyzed 59 patients with cervical esophageal cancer without distant metastases other than supraclavicular lymph node metastases who received radical chemoradiotherapy with 5-fluorouracilplus platinum between 2002 and 2018. Loco-regional control (LRC), overall survival (OS), LEDFS, metachronous esophageal cancer incidence rates, and late toxicities were evaluated. LEDFS events were defined as death, local recurrence, total or partial laryngectomy, tracheostomy for more than 2 years, and feeding tube use for more than 2 years, as recommended by the Larynx Preservation Consensus Panel. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rates. The generalized Wilcoxon test was used to compare the two groups. The Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v5.0 was used to assess toxicities. RESULTS The median age was 66 years (range, 38-83). There were 13 women and 46 men. Stage I, II, III, IVA, and IVB disease according to UICC 8th staging were 15, 9, 9, 10, and 16 patients, respectively. 22 received conventional radiotherapy and 37 received volumetric modulated arc therapy. The median total irradiation dose was 66 Gy. Platinum plus 5-fluorouracil chemotherapy was administered to all patients. The median follow-up for survivors was 87.5 months. The 5-year LRC, OS, and LEDFS rates were 54.2%, 48.9%, and 41.9%, respectively. The prognostic factors for OS were performance status (PS), hypopharyngeal extension, and clinical stage in univariate analysis and only clinical stage (hazard ratio [HR] 3.87, 95% Confidence interval [CI]: 1.52-9.87, p<0.01) in multivariate analysis; the prognostic factors for LEDFS were PS, hypopharyngeal extension and clinical stage in univariate analysis and hypopharyngeal extension (HR 2.38, 95% CI: 1.12-5.03, p = 0.02) and clinical stage (HR 4.07, 95% CI: 1.48-11.06, p<0.02) in multivariate analysis. Metachronous esophageal cancer was observed in 28.6% of patients at 5 years. As severe late toxicities, grade 3 pneumonitis, esophageal stricture, esophageal fistula, laryngeal stricture, and laryngeal edema were observed in 1 (2%), 1 (2%) and 4 (7%), 1 (2%) and 1 (2%), respectively. Grade 2 hypothyroidism was observed in 31 (53%) patients. CONCLUSION Chemoradiation for cervical esophageal cancer showed good results. The prognostic factors for LEDFS were pharyngeal extension and clinical stage. Late esophageal and laryngeal toxicity, hypothyroidism, and metachronous esophageal cancer should be noted.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Although chemoradiotherapy (CRT) is widely used as a curative treatment for esophageal cancer, it is often difficult to perform standard CRT for the elderly in the real world. This study aimed to investigate the impact of the Geriatric 8 (G8) score on treatment strategies and outcome in definitive radiotherapy (RT) for elderly esophageal cancer patients. MATERIALS/METHODS We analyzed 81 esophageal cancer patients aged ≥65 years who received definitive RT between 2018 and 2021. The G8 score was acquired at the first visit to the radiation oncology department. The treatment strategy was decided by a multi-disciplinary conference, and the G8 score was not used to determine the treatment strategy. Standard treatment (standard CRT) was defined as RT with elective nodal irradiation and a total dose ≥50 Gy, and chemotherapy with two cycles of platinum (70 mg/m2) and 5FU (700 mg/m2 for 4 days) concurrently. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to generate actual survival curves. The Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0 was used to assess toxicities. The Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the two groups, and statistical significance was set at p<0.05. The Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve was used to calculate the cutoff value. RESULTS The Median follow-up time was 30 months (range: 8-51) for survivors. The mean G8 scores by treatment strategy were 13.9 (range: 9-17) for standard CRT group (n = 26), 12.1 (range: 7-16) for reduced CRT group (n = 30), and 9.7 (range: 4.5-14) for RT alone group (n = 25). G8 score was significantly higher for standard CRT (p = 0.017) and significantly lower for RT alone (p<0.01). The cut-off value of the G8 score for standard treatment, calculated by the ROC curve, was 12.5 points. In the non-standard treatment group, the cut-off value of the G8 score for RT alone, calculated by the ROC curve, was 10.5 points. The 2-year overall survival (OS) rates for standard CRT, reduced CRT and RT alone were 74%, 71% and 35%, respectively, and significantly lower in RT alone (p<0.001). The 2-years OS rates for G8 score >10.5 points and ≤10.5 points were 69% and 48%, respectively (p = 0.039). Grade 3 or higher acute toxicities were observed in 33 patients (41%); 14 (54%) in standard CRT, 17 (57%) in reduced CRT and 2 (8%) in RT alone. Grade 5 acute toxicity was not observed. G8 scores tended to be higher in the patients with grade 3 or higher acute toxicities, but the difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.057). Grade 3 or higher late toxicities were observed in 7 patients. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that there is an association between the G8 score and clinicians' treatment decisions. Although RT alone could be safely performed even in patients with low G8 scores, administration of chemotherapy strongly affected prognosis. These results suggest the importance of developing less toxic systemic therapy regimens for patients with low G8 scores.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) The purpose of this study is to establish a prediction model for the development of grade 2 or higher radiation pneumonitis (RP) using radiomics analysis of pretreatment CT images, PET images, and dose distribution, in addition to clinical factors, in patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with radical chemoradiotherapy. MATERIALS/METHODS We retrospectively evaluated 128 cases of locally advanced NSCLC treated with radical radiotherapy at our institution from 2008 to 2021. Clinical factors included age, sex, performance status (PS), KL-6, smoking history, histological type, clinical stage, and total radiation dose. Radiomics analysis was performed by analyzing treatment planning CT images, PET images, and dose distribution, and Rad-score (Radiomics-score) was calculated for the extracted features using Lasso-Cox regression. Rad-score (Radiomics-score) was calculated by Lasso-Cox regression for the extracted features. Risk factors were selected by univariate/multivariate analysis of clinical factors and Rad-score. Three models for predicting RP were developed from the identified risk factors using Nomogram: Clinical, Rad-score, and Combined model. The model was evaluated using area under the curve (AUC) based on receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and concordance index (C-index). RP was evaluated using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0. The cumulative incidence of Grade 2 or higher RP was evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS Of the 128 cases, grade 2 or higher RP was observed in 50 cases (39%). Regarding clinical factors, gender, smoking status, and histology were selected as significant predictors of RP. Lasso-Cox analysis of radiomics features selected 11 features from CT images, 7 features from PET images, and 16 features from dose distribution as predictors of RP, yielding a total of 34 factors. The combined model (C-index: 0.96, AUC: 0.92) showed the best discrimination performance compared to the clinical model (C-index: 0.73, AUC: 0.56) and the Rad-score model (C-index: 0.87, AUC: 0.92). Risk classification using the combined model showed that the 1-year cumulative incidence of grade 2 or higher RP was 65% in the high-risk group, significantly higher than 15% in the low-risk group (p<0.001). CONCLUSION The combined model with Rad-score and clinical factors can predict grade 2 or higher RP in NSCLC patients with high accuracy.

Abstract
We present an experimental method to generate quasiperpendicular supercritical magnetized collisionless shocks. In our experiment, ambient nitrogen (N) plasma is at rest and well magnetized, and it has uniform mass density. The plasma is pushed by laser-driven ablation aluminum (Al) plasma. Streaked optical pyrometry and spatially resolved laser collective Thomson scattering clarify structures of plasma density and temperatures, which are compared with one-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations. It is indicated that just after the laser irradiation, the Al plasma is magnetized by a self-generated Biermann battery field, and the plasma slaps the incident N plasma. The compressed external field in the N plasma reflects N ions, leading to counterstreaming magnetized N flows. Namely, we identify the edge of the reflected N ions. Such interacting plasmas form a magnetized collisionless shock.

Abstract
Vancomycin is associated with nephrotoxicity; however, the influence of the number of combined nephrotoxic agents on the incidence of vancomycin nephrotoxicity has not been clarified. We investigated patient backgrounds in 148 inpatients who received vancomycin treatment. The patients were divided into nephrotoxicity (n=35) and non-nephrotoxicity (n=113) groups. A comparison of the patient backgrounds in the two groups revealed significant differences in weight, changes in serum creatinine before vancomycin administration, blood urea nitrogen to serum creatinine ratio, length of vancomycin therapy, vancomycin trough concentration, and number of combined nephrotoxic agents. Multiple logistic regression analysis using these six factors as autonomous variables showed that the highest vancomycin trough concentration (odds ratio, 1.080; 95% confidence interval, 1.030-1.140; p = 0.003) and the number of combined nephrotoxic agents (odds ratio, 1.590; 95% confidence interval, 1.120-2.260; p = 0.010) were significantly related to nephrotoxicity.

Introduction
Absolute risk of Lifetime risk (LTR) is useful estimate for risk communication compared with short term risk or relative risk especially for young people. Proteinuria is leading cause of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) and independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Although nonproteinuric renal disease is global burden of ESKD, it has been poorly focused. To date, there have been no reports of impact of proteinuria and low eGFR on LTR with the outcome of CVD death in Asian population.
Purpose
We aimed to estimate LTR of CVD death stratified by the status of proteinuria and low eGFR.
Methods
We used modified Kaplan-Meier approach to estimate the remaining lifetime risk of cardiovascular death based on EPOCH-JAPAN(Evidence for Cardiovascular Prevention From Observational Cohorts in Japan) database. LTR was estimated at each index age starting from 40 years for those with proteinuria and without proteinuria stratified by low eGFR, which is defined as eGFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m². Participants were classified into three groups, which were those with proteinuria (Proteinuria (+)), those without proteinuria with low eGFR (Proteinuria (-)/Low eGFR (+)), those without proteinuria without low eGFR (Proteinuria (-)/Low eGFR (-)).
Results
A total of 47,292 participants from 9 cohorts was included in the analysis. Mean follow-up period was 14.6 years with 690,463 person years and total CVD death was 1,075 in men and 1,193 in women. The LTRs at the index age of 40 years were as follows: 17.7% (95% confidence interval: 15.4 – 19.0%) in Proteinuria (-)/Low eGFR (-) group, 26.2% (20.2 – 31.1%) in Proteinuria (-)/low eGFR (+) group, 24.5% (15.1 – 29.3%) in Proteinuria (+) group for men; 15.3%(13.7 – 16.5%), 29.9%(14.7 – 46.8%) , 28.3%(19.4 – 34.7%) for women.
Conclusions
We observed that those without proteinuria with low eGFR have equivalently high LTR with those with proteinuria. These results indicate that even in the absence of proteinuria, low eGFR has high impact on LTR. Lifestyle modification from young age is necessary to prevent from renal dysfunction.

Abstract
Topological magnetic structure possesses topological stability characteristics that make it robust against disturbances which are a big advantage for data processing or storage devices of spintronics; nonetheless, such characteristics have been rarely clarified. This paper focused on the formation of chiral soliton lattice (CSL), a one-dimensional topological magnetic structure, and provides a discussion of its topological stability and influence of thermal fluctuation. Herein, CSL responses against change of temperature and applied magnetic field were investigated via small-angle resonant soft X-ray scattering in chromium niobium sulfide ([Formula: see text]). CSL transformation relative to the applied magnetic field demonstrated a clear agreement with the theoretical prediction of the sine-Gordon model. Further, there were apparent differences in the process of chiral soliton creation and annihilation, discussed from the viewpoint of competing between thermal fluctuation and the topological metastability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intraperitoneal chemotherapy using paclitaxel is considered an experimental approach for treating peritoneal carcinomatosis. This study aimed to determine the recommended dose, and to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety, of the combination of intravenous gemcitabine, intravenous nab-paclitaxel and intraperitoneal paclitaxel in patients with pancreatic cancer and peritoneal metastasis. METHODS The frequencies of dose-limiting toxicities were evaluated, and the recommended dose was determined in phase I. The primary endpoint of the phase II analysis was overall survival rate at 1 year. Secondary endpoints were antitumour effects, symptom-relieving effects, safety and overall survival. RESULTS The recommended doses of intravenous gemcitabine, intravenous nab-paclitaxel and intraperitoneal paclitaxel were 800, 75 and 20 mg/m2 respectively. Among 46 patients enrolled in phase II, the median time to treatment failure was 6·0 (range 0-22·6) months. The response and disease control rates were 21 of 43 and 41 of 43 respectively. Ascites disappeared in 12 of 30 patients, and cytology became negative in 18 of 46. The median survival time was 14·5 months, and the 1-year overall survival rate was 61 per cent. Conversion surgery was performed in eight of 46 patients, and those who underwent resection survived significantly longer than those who were not treated surgically (median survival not reached versus 12·4 months). Grade 3-4 haematological toxicities developed in 35 of 46 patients, whereas non-haematological adverse events occurred in seven patients. CONCLUSION Adding intraperitoneal paclitaxel had clinical efficacy with acceptable tolerability.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Isolated cleft of the anterior mitral valve leaflet is a very rare congenital disease and a cause of mitral regurgitation
not associated with atrioventricular septal defect. In this case, we report our experience in valvuloplasty treatment for mitral regurgitation with this rare aetiology.
Case description
23-year-old Russian women. Although cardiac murmur was pointed out in her childhood and she was diagnosed as mitral regurgitation, she refused treatment. After getting married with a Japanese man and moving to Japan, her symptoms had worsened and she visited our hospital for treatment. Preoperative transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) had indicated the regurgitation from the central part of the mitral valve. Preoperative transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) had pointed out the isolated cleft of the anterior mitral valve.
Surgical mitral valvuloplasty was scheduled, and the TOE after anaesthetic induction showed the isolated cleft of the anterior mitral valve the same as in the preoperative period and pointed out the posterior leaflet billowing. The operative finding was also similar to TOE: the largely bisected central anterior mitral valve and billowing, P2 billowing, shortening of P1 and P3, P2-3 cleft. There were no chords at the anterior cleft. The valvuloplasty was performed including five-time pump runs in total: 1) Continuous suture for the anterior cleft and ring annuloplasty were performed, and the regurgitation was seemed to be almost controlled at the water-leak test and the ink test; 2) Artificial chordae and leaflet plications were added to residual regurgitation from the posterior region; 3)The residual regurgitation was controlled to Mild but it became a lateral jet toward the ring; 4)Mild remnant flow was pointed out: the regurgitation seemed to be from the posterior cleft, where immediately below the ring suture; 5) Pericardium patch was added and the remnant flow was almost eliminated. The pump was weaned and the operation was finished without any problems.
Discussion
The cause of difficulty in this valvuloplasty was thought to be caused by the difficulty in evaluating the mitral valve morphology. It was evident that the anterior leaflet of the mitral valve was largely bisected. However, it was difficult to evaluate the coaptation line and area due to the absence of chordal cords in the anterior cleft and the billowing or shortening of the posterior leaflet. Although preoperative three-dimensional analysis helped evaluating the isolated cleft and the regurgitation was almost controlled in the evaluation in the operation field, nevertheless, a residual regurgitation occurred and indicated in the TOE after re-beating.
Conclusion
It is important and necessary to use fine evaluation of coaptation is needed in valvuloplasty for isolated cleft of the anterior mitral valve leaflet; not only apply three-dimensional analysis but also apply two-dimensional echocardiogram.

Background / Introduction
Evidences have shown that cardiac function decline and systolic phase change are caused by massive afterload of the stenosed aortic valve in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis. As a result of the reduction of the left ventricular afterload by valve replacement, the cardiac function recovers. However, it has not been clarified yet how the changes in cardiac function affect the relationship between the right and left heart systems, as well as the systole phase.
TAPSE and MAPSE are known as indices of simple cardiac function evaluation by measuring the movement distance of the atrioventricular annulus. We obtained these indices (i.e. TAPSE, MAPSE) within the same heartbeat using speckle tracking analysis of the atrioventricular annulus and evaluated the changes in cardiac function and phase between the right and left heart systems.
Purpose
To reveal the relationship of cardiac function and time phase between the right and left heart systems by evaluating the maximum movement distance and time of the atrioventricular annulus within the same heartbeat and the same view in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis before and after TAVI.
Methods
A prospective cohort study was conducted. We recruited and analyzed 44 patients with severe aortic valve stenosis who received TAVI treatment, able to record baseline before treatment and follow-up 6 months and 12 months after treatment at our hospital from March 2017 to May 2019. Patients were excluded if more than 2 degree of atrioventricular valve regurgitation or incomplete data. The apical four-chamber view was used for speckle tracking analysis with the origin of the apical extension and region of interest (ROI) of the mitral annulus and tricuspid annulus. For each patient before treatment, at 6 months and 12 months after treatment, the maximum contraction distance (DM), maximum contraction time (TM) of the mitral valve annulus, maximum contraction distance (DT) and maximum contraction time (TT) of the tricuspid annulus were measured. Maximum contraction distance ratio (DM/ DT) and maximum contraction time ratio (TM/ TT) were calculated. For statistical analysis, t-test and ANOVA were used, and a significance threshold of p <0.05 was applied.
Results
TM/ TT decreased at 12 months after TAVI, and DM/ DT increased significantly at 6 months and 12 months after TAVI when compared to baseline before treatment.
Conclusions
In patients with severe aortic valve stenosis, the correction of cardiac function difference between the right and left heart systems occurs from 6 months after TAVI. Moreover, the correction of contraction phase difference between the right and left heart systems at 12 months after TAVI. Thus, the synchrony between the right and left heart system is recovered 12 months after TAVI.

Abstract
We have developed a rapid analysis method for determination of histamine using ultra-performance liquid chromatography and fluorescamine derivatization. Histamine was extracted from foods with trichloroacetic acid after homogenization. The supernatant obtained by centrifugation was filtered and derivatized without solid-phase extraction. The mobile phase was 10 mM phosphate-acetonitrile (75 : 25) without ion-pairing. Recovery tests of histamine from fishes, seasoning and fish products gave acceptable recovery (95.8-117.7%). This method should be useful for rapid evaluation of food poisoning outbreaks.

Abstract
BACKGROUND According to the Japanese Esophageal Society (JES) guidelines, risk factors for lymph node (LN) metastasis in the muscularis mucosa (MM)/submucosa to a depth of up to 200 μm (SM1) in cases of esophageal squamous cell carcinomas (ESCCs) include the presence of lymphatic invasion (ly), venous invasion (v), infiltration pattern (INF)c, and SM1. The long-term prognoses of these patients are unclear, and there are very few reports on the validation of the curative criteria for MM/SM1 ESCCs. AIMS To examine the long-term prognoses of these patients and the risk factors for LN metastasis of MM/SM1 ESCCs after endoscopic resection (ER). METHODS This study included patients with MM/SM1 ESCCs who underwent ER at Hiroshima University Hospital from December 1990 to November 2016. We evaluated the clinicopathological characteristics of 98 patients and overall survival, disease-specific survival, recurrence-free survival, and recurrence rates in the e-curative and non-e-curative groups. RESULTS The mean observation period was 75 months. There was no significant difference in disease-specific survival rate between the e-curative and non-e-curative groups (100 vs. 98%). There was no significant difference in disease-specific survival rates between the groups (100 vs. 98%). In contrast, the LN recurrence-free survival rate in patients with INFa, ly(-), and v(-) was significantly higher than that in patients with INFb/c, ly(+), or v(+) (100 and 87%, P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Contrary to the JES guidelines, our findings suggest that new criteria (MM/SM1, INFa, negative vertical margin (VM0), ly[-], and v[-]) may be associated with curative ER without additional treatment.

Abstract
It is unclear whether multiple nonstructural (NS) 5A resistance-associated substitutions (RASs) correlate with the outcome of sofosbuvir (SOF) and ledipasvir (LDV) therapy. We investigated the effects of multiple NS5A RASs in NS5A inhibitor-naïve patients with chronic hepatitis C virus genotype 1b infection treated with SOF/LDV. In 313 patients treated with SOF/LDV, we assessed the effects of multiple NS5A RASs on the sustained virological response (SVR). RASs at L28, R30, L31, Q54, P58, Q62, A92, and Y93 in the NS5A region were examined by direct sequencing. The prevalence of RASs was as follows: 2.6% at L28, 8.7% at R30, 6.1% at L31, 48.7% at Q54, 9.9% at P58, 9.9% at Q62, 5.1% at A92, 13.8% at Y93, and 19.2% at L31 or Y93. A total of 133 patients had no RASs. SVR was achieved in 98.7% of the patients. SVR rates significantly differed between patients with and without the L31 or Y93 RAS (93.0% [53/57] vs 100% [250/250], P = .0011). In addition, among patients with the L31 or Y93 RAS, 29.8%, 45.6% and 24.6% had one, two and three or more NS5A RASs, respectively. The SVR rate was significantly lower in patients with the L31 or Y93 RAS with more than three NS5A RASs compared to those with fewer than three NS5A RASs (71.4% [10/14] vs 100% [43/43], P = .0025). Although the prevalence of multiple NS5A RASs at baseline was low in NS5A inhibitor-naïve patients, the presence of multiple NS5A RASs was associated with the effectiveness of SOF/LDV therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the effect of release of experimentally introduced nasal obstruction on maxillofacial morphology and percutaneous arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2 ) in rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS Six-week-old male Wistar rats (n = 36) were divided into a control group (n = 6) and a nasal obstruction group (n = 30). In the nasal obstruction group, the right nostril was occluded with silicon, which was subsequently removed after a given experimental period (days 7, 21, 35, 49 and 63). These animals were then divided into groups D7, D21, D35, D49 and D63 (each n = 6), according to the day at which the obstruction was released. The SpO2 was measured in rats with nasal obstruction at five experimental points. The maxillofacial morphology in rats on the first day and 63 days after the start of the experiment was evaluated by microcomputed tomography. RESULTS The SpO2 was still lower at 2 weeks after the improvement of the nasal obstruction in the D49 group than in the control group. In addition, the height of the nasal maxillary complex of the D35, D49 and D63 groups was significantly decreased compared with the control group. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study suggest that long-term unilateral nasal obstruction in growing rats may affect the growth of the nasomaxillary complex and reduce the SpO2 permanently. Therefore, early improvement of nasal obstruction in rats during the growth period may improve the SpO2 and cranial development and promote normal growth and development.

Abstract
The interaction of very low energy antiprotons (ps) and antineutrons (ns) with nuclei is interesting for its influence on both fundamental cosmology and nuclear physics. Measuring the annihilation cross section of antimatter on matter can help in solving the universe matter-antimatter puzzle and could give relevant hints in the definition of strong interaction model parameters as well. The ASACUSA collaboration recently measured the antiproton-carbon annihilation cross section at 5.3 MeV of kinetic energy of the incoming antiproton. The experimental apparatus consisted in a vacuum chamber containing thin foils (~0.7-1 μm) of carbon crossed by a bunched beam of antiprotons from the CERN Antiproton Decelerator (AD). The fraction of antiprotons annihilating on the target nucleons gives origin to charged pions which can be detected and counted by segmented scintillators placed outside the chamber. This work describes the experimental details of the apparatus and the technique to perform the cross section measurements.
