| 抄録 | Alcoholic liver disease is a risk factor for non-virus-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which is increasing in prevalence. This study aimed to identify the factors for recovery from alcoholic liver failure. Sixty-two consecutive patients hospitalized for alcoholic liver failure at Okayama City Hospital were enrolled. The characteristics of patients who survived to the 1-month follow-up and whose liver function improved to Child–Pugh A at 3 months (CPA3) and 12 months (CPA12) were compared with the rest of the patients. The survivors at 1 month (50 patients) were significantly younger than the deceased patients and had better liver and renal function with higher levels of γ-glutamyl transferase (GGT). The same factors, except renal function, were correlated with achieving CPA3. High AST, ALT, and GGT levels as well as short spleen length, total abstinence, and good Child–Pugh scores at admission were identified as factors for achieving CPA12. The extent of alcohol intake before admission was not identified as a risk factor in any analysis. In conclusion, baseline liver function is crucial for survival and achieving CPA3, whereas high transaminase and γ-GTP levels, the absence of splenomegaly, and total abstinence are significant factors for achieving CPA12. |

| 抄録 | An intraoperative double-low condition is defined as concurrent low values for bispectral index (BIS) and mean arterial pressure (MAP), and may predict perioperative outcomes. We hypothesized that prolonged double-low times might be associated with an increased incidence of postoperative delirium. We conducted a single-center retrospective observational study on patients who had been admitted to our hospital’s intensive care unit (ICU) after surgery and whose BIS and MAP data had been recorded during general anesthesia. The primary outcome was the incidence of postoperative delirium. A double-low condition was defined as BIS < 45 and MAP <75 mmHg. The total double-low time was calculated in 1-min increments and used to divide the patients into quintiles. Multiple logistic regression analyses were conducted. Among the 334 patients included in the study, the incidence of postoperative delirium was 15.6% (n=52). Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that a prolonged double-low time, defined as a total double-low time of > 42 min (i.e., third, fourth, and fifth quintiles), was significantly associated with an increased incidence of postoperative delirium (adjusted odds ratio: 2.61, 95% confidence interval: 1.27-5.37, p=0.009). Prolonged double-low time during general anesthesia was independently associated with an increased incidence of postoperative delirium in surgical ICU patients. |

| 抄録 | The curriculum at the Department of Pathophysiology in the Periodontal Sciences program at Okayama University includes normative preclinical training (NPT) using phantoms. NPT is given to the whole class of 5 th year students divided in groups of 8 students/instructor. In 2019, an innovative personalized preclinical training (PPT) pilot study was implemented for this group of students whereby two students, each with their own dental unit, were coached by one instructor. The main topics covered were dental ergonomics and endodontics. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of PPT in dental ergonomics and endodontics toward increasing the knowledge and future clinical skills of students who had already undergone NPT. A test on endodontics was taken before and after PPT. A questionnaire was completed to assess their perception of improvement regarding the above-mentioned topics. Test scores and questionnaire results both showed that the students’ level of knowledge and awareness of future clinical skills was significantly higher after PPT. This pilot study demonstrated that PPT increased the students’ knowledge and future clinical skills. As preclinical training forms the foundation for clinical practice, investment in future research regarding this personalized approach is likely to enhance students’ understanding and clinical performance. |

| 抄録 | We investigated the link between prolonged sedentary bouts and all-cause mortality in patients on chronic hemodialysis, using a prospective cohort. A total of 104 outpatients on chronic hemodialysis from 2013 to 2019, aged 71.4±11.4 years, were enrolled. Prolonged sedentary bouts (≥ 30 min and ≥60 min) (min and bouts) and relative prolonged sedentary bouts (≥ 30 min and ≥ 60 min) (%) on the patients’ non-hemodialysis days were measured by a tri-accelerometer, and we also analyzed the patients’ clinical parameters. The relationship between prolonged sedentary bouts and all-cause mortality was evaluated by a survival analysis and the Cox proportional hazard model. Thirty-five patients died during the follow-up period. A Kaplan-Meier analysis detected significant differences in the survival rate between two groups stratified by the median for all prolonged sedentary-bout parameters. After the adjustment for confounding factors, all of the prolonged sedentary-bout parameters were determinant factors for all-cause mortality. These results indicate that prolonged sedentary bouts on non-hemodialysis days were closely related to all-cause mortality in the patients on hemodialysis. |

| 抄録 | Eating disorders (EDs) are associated with a high mortality rate. Patients with EDs often experience severe dehydration due to food restriction and/or vomiting. Severely underweight patients are often prescribed bed rest during inpatient care to reduce their energy consumption, and they may thus develop multiple risk factors for venous thromboembolism (VTE). We compared the clinical features of ED inpatients with VTE to those of ED inpatients without VTE. Seventy-one inpatients with ED were treated at Okayama University Hospital’s psychiatric ward in 2016-2020; five were experienced a VTE. Compared to the non-VTE group, the VTE group’s median age and disease duration were greater and the median body mass index (BMI) was lower. The VTE group’s D-dimer peak values were > 5 mg/L. Physical restraint and central venous catheter use were associated with VTE. Longer ED duration and lower BMI might be risk factors for VTE. To make inpatient treatment for ED safer, it is important to avoid the use of physical restraints and central venous catheters. Continuous D-dimer monitoring is necessary for the early detection of VTE in ED patients at high risk of VTE. |

| 抄録 | Percutaneous cryoablation of renal tumors is widely used because of its high efficacy and safety. This high safety can be attributed, at least in part, to the visibility of the ablated area as an “ice ball”. This therapy has fewer complications (incidence, 0-7.2%) and is less invasive than surgery. Minor bleeding is inevitable in most kidney-related procedures, and indeed the most common complication of this therapy is bleeding (hematoma and hematuria). However, patients require treatment such as transfusion or transarterial embolization in only 0-4% of bleeding cases. Various other complications such as ureteral or collecting system injury, bowel injury, nerve injury, skin injury, infection, pneumothorax, and tract seeding also occur, but they are usually minor and asymptomatic. However, operators should know and avoid the various complications associated with this therapy. This study aimed to summarize the complications of percutaneous cryoablation for renal tumors and provide some techniques for achieving safe procedures. |

| 抄録 | Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a side effect in patients taking bone-modifying agents (BMAs), which are highly beneficial for treating osteoporosis and cancer. Bisphosphonates are prescribed to treat secondary osteoporosis in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We recently encountered two unusual cases of intraoral ONJ in RA patients who had not been treated with a BMA and did not have features of methotrexate- associated lymphoproliferative disorder. Their ONJ stage II bone exposures were treated by conservative therapy, providing good prognoses. These cases indicate that ONJ can occur in RA patients not treated with bisphosphonates. Several risk factors are discussed. |

| 抄録 | A 35-year-old female presented with headache, photophobia and developed sudden loss of vision after having undergone right-side ophthalmectomy and radiochemotherapy for retinoblastoma in infancy. A neoplastic lesion was found in the left middle cranial fossa and was surgically removed. The diagnosis was radiation-induced osteosarcoma with RB1 gene alteration. Although she received chemotherapy for the residual tumor, it progressed 17 months later. Maximal surgical resection with craniofacial reconstruction was required. We utilized two three-dimensional models for surgical planning. She was discharged without neurological deficits other than loss of light perception subsequent to left ophthalmectomy. In cases where retinoblastoma is treated with radiotherapy, long-term follow-up is necessary to monitor for radiation-induced tumor development. |

| 抄録 | Osteoid osteoma (OO) is a benign bone tumor that presents with nocturnal pain. Computed tomography (CT)- guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has been widely performed for OO, and major adverse events post-RFA are rare. We report a case of OO in the left navicular bone of a 15-year-old male. He underwent RFA for OO, and the pain improved temporarily. At the 1-month follow-up, the patient complained of left foot pain, and a CT examination revealed a fracture of the ablated navicular bone. Fractures are rare but must be taken into account after bone RFA. |

| 抄録 | We report a case of ipsilateral periprosthetic fractures above and below the knee that occurred at different times due to navigation tracker pin and bone fragility. A 66-year-old Japanese woman with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) underwent a total knee arthroplasty. Four months post-surgery, a periprosthetic fracture above the knee at the navigation pin hole was detected. She underwent osteosynthesis and could walk independently, but she developed an ipsilateral tibial component fracture. Conservative treatment with a splint was followed by bone union. Patients with RA treated with oral steroids tend to develop ipsilateral periprosthetic fractures around the knee due to bone fragility. |

| 抄録 | Melanosis coli (MC) is an acquired colorectal disorder visualized as colonic mucosa pigmentation. Disease severity is confirmed based on MC depth, shape, and coloration, although the clinical course is not fully understood. This study sought to clarify characteristics of MC development and disappearance and to investigate its clinical course and severity. Contributors to MC grade progression were explored. This study reviewed MC cases discovered via colonoscopy at a single institution over a 10-year period. Of all 216 MC cases, 17 developing and 10 disappearing cases were detected. Anthranoid laxative use was a key factor: 29.4% of the developing cases had used such agents before the initial MC diagnosis, whereas 40% of disappearing cases had discontinued anthranoids prior to detection of MC disappearance. Among 70 grade I cases, progression to grade II occurred in 16 cases during a mean follow-up of 3.67±2.1 years (rate of progression=22.8%). Males more commonly showed progressive than stable grade I cases, and the probability of progression was higher for male than for female cases. An association between anthranoid administration and MC presence was presumed, and grade I MC was found to progress in severity over 5 years. |

| 抄録 | Novel deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) reportedly changes the image quality characteristics based on object contrast and image noise. In clinical practice, computed tomography image noise is usually controlled by tube current modulation (TCM) to accommodate changes in object size. This study aimed to evaluate the image quality characteristics of DLIR for different object sizes when the in-plane noise was controlled by TCM. Images acquisition was performed on a GE Revolution CT system to investigate the impact of the DLIR algorithm compared to the standard reconstructions of filtered-back projection (FBP) and hybrid iterative reconstruction (hybrid-IR). The image quality assessment was performed using phantom images, and an observer study was conducted using clinical cases. The image quality assessment confirmed the excellent noise- reduction performance of DLIR, despite variations due to phantom size. Similarly, in the observer study, DLIR received high evaluations regardless of the body parts imaged. We evaluated a novel DLIR algorithm by replicating clinical behaviors. Consequently, DLIR exhibited higher image quality than those of FBP and hybrid-IR in both phantom and observer studies, albeit the value depended on the reconstruction strength, and proved itself capable of providing stable image quality in clinical use. |

| 抄録 | Systemic therapy for stage IV breast cancer is usually an initial treatment and is based on findings regarding biomarkers (e.g., hormone receptors and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 [HER2]). However, the response to therapy and outcomes sometime differ among patients with similar prognostic factors including grade, hormone receptor, HER2, and more. We conducted retrospective analyses to evaluate the correlations between the overall survival (OS) of 46 stage IV breast cancer patients and (i) the peripheral absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) and (ii) composite blood cell markers. The peripheral blood cell markers included the neutrophil- to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), the monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), the systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), and the most recently introduced indicator, the pan-immune-inflammatory value (PIV). The SIRI and PIV showed prognostic impacts on the patients: those with a low SIRI or a low PIV showed significantly better OS than those with a high SIRI (5-year, 66.0% vs. 35.0%, p<0.05) or high PIV (5-year, 68.1% vs. 38.5%, p<0.05), respectively. This is the first report indicating the possible prognostic value of the PIV for OS in patients with stage IV breast cancer. Further studies with larger numbers of patients are necessary for further clarification. |

| 抄録 | We measured the muscle mass and phase angle of each body part to evaluate the relationship between balance and gait functions in individuals with a pre-frailty status. This cross-sectional observational study determined the skeletal muscle mass-to-body weight ratio and phase angles of 21 control (robust) and 29 pre-frail subjects. Their Brief-Balance Evaluation Systems Test, Timed Up-and-Go (TUG) test, Life-Space Assessment, and Modified Fall Efficacy Scale scores plus the relationship between muscle mass, phase angle, and motor function were evaluated. In the pre-frailty group (three males, 26 females, aged 75.58±7.60 years), significant correlations were noted between the Brief-Balance Evaluation Systems Test score and lower-limb (r=0.614) and wholebody (r=0.557) phase angles, and between the TUG test score and lower-limb muscle mass-to-body weight ratio (r=−0.616), lower-limb phase angle (r=−0.616), and whole-body phase angle (r=−0.527). Evaluating the phase angle of the lower extremities of pre-frail patients and intervening accordingly may help clinicians maintain and improve these patients’ balance and gait functions. |

| 抄録 | The importance of a well-fitted, comfortable brassiere to overall quality of life after breast reconstruction has not been evaluated. Our aim was to determine the impact of a semi-customized brassiere on patients’ health-related quality of life after breast reconstruction. The subjects were prospective patients with mastectomy who were to undergo immediate or delayed breast reconstruction at our hospital. After surgery, a professional bra fitter sized each patient for a semi-customized brassiere and provided follow-up consultations. A self-reported questionnaire on breast aesthetics, postoperative pain, and satisfaction was used to assess the primary outcomes. Data were prospectively collected at baseline (before surgery) and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery and analyzed. Forty-six patients (50 breasts) were included in the analysis. Consistent wearing of the brassiere reduced pain (p<0.05), with good overall satisfaction (p<0.001). Aesthetic scores on breast shape and size were higher with than without the custom brassiere at 3 months (p=0.02) and 6 months (p=0.03) after surgery. Wearing the brassiere reduced anxiety at all time points of measurement. A well-fitting brassiere ensured safety and provided a high degree of satisfaction without anxiety for patients after breast reconstruction. |

| 抄録 | Inducible resistance to the macrolide, lincosamide, and streptogramin B (iMLSB) antibiotic family is a latent mechanism for antimicrobial resistance in Staphylococcus aureus. We here investigated the frequency and genotypic profiles of iMLSB resistance in clindamycin (CLDM)-susceptible S. aureus isolated in Okayama University Hospital from June 2020 to June 2021. We phenotypically screened the iMLSB resistance via D-zone test and performed PCR testing for the erythromycin ribosomal methylase (erm) genes: ermA and ermC. Among 432 CLDM-susceptible S. aureus isolates, 138 (31.9%) exhibited an iMLSB-resistance phenotype, with methicillinresistant S. aureus isolates (MRSA; 61 isolates: 58.6%) exhibiting higher positivity than methicillin-sensitive S. aureus isolates (MSSA; 77 isolates: 23.5%) (p<0.001). Male patients had a higher frequency of iMLSB resistance than females (OR [95%CI]: 1.8 [1.2-2.8]; p=0.007). Genotypically, ermA predominated in both MSSA (70.1%) and MRSA (86.9%) compared to ermC (14.3% in MSSA and 11.5% in MRSA). A single strain of MRSA possessed both ermA and ermC, while 12 (15.6%) MSSA isolates were negative for both ermA and ermC, suggesting the presence of other genetic mechanisms. Collectively, these results show that approximately 33% of CLDM-susceptible S. aureus isolates at our university hospital exhibited iMLSB resistance, predominantly caused by ermA in both MSSA and MRSA. |

| 抄録 | We provide the first report of successful salvage surgery for a post-C1 laminectomy symptomatic recurrence of a retro-odontoid pseudotumor (ROP) that caused myelopathy. The 72-year-old Japanese woman presented with an ROP causing symptomatic cervical myelopathy. With ultrasonography support, we performed the enucleation of the ROP via a transdural approach and fusion surgery for the recurrence of the mass. At the final observation 2-year post-surgery, MRI demonstrated the mass’s regression and spinal cord decompression, and the patient’s symptoms had improved. Our strategy is an effective option for a symptomatic recurrence of ROP. |

| 抄録 | We describe a floating technique via a posterolateral approach with intraoperative O-arm navigation to facilitate decompression of the spinal cord in thoracic myelopathy due to severe ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL). A 62-year-old man with myelopathy due to thoracic OPLL had left-leg muscle weakness, urinary disturbance, and spastic gait. Bilateral leg pain and gait disturbance had persisted for 2 years. He was successfully treated by the posterolateral OPLL floating procedure and posterior pedicle fixation under O-arm navigation. At a 2-year follow-up, manual muscle testing results and sensory function of the left leg had recovered fully. His cervical Japanese Orthopedic Association score had improved from 5/12 to 11/12. The novel intraoperative O-arm navigation-guided posterolateral floating procedure for thoracic OPLL is effective for achieving precise decompression and strong fixation with a posterior approach only and can provide an excellent result for severe thoracic OPLL without the risk of adverse events from intraoperative radiation. |
