Abstract

Background Glucocorticoids affect bone turnover. Little is known about how bone turnover changes when glucocorticoids are discontinued following long-term administration. Methods This retrospective observational study was conducted on the relationship between discontinuation of long-term administration of glucocorticoid and bone turnover markers (BTMs) in patients with childhood-onset idiopathic nephrotic syndrome. Serum bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP), intact procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (P1NP), and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-5b (TRACP-5b) were evaluated as BTMs. Results Thirty-eight pairs of BTMs at glucocorticoid administration and after discontinuation were analyzed in 29 patients. The median age at baseline was 12.4 (interquartile range, 9.0-14.5) years, and the median time from the onset of nephrotic syndrome was 5.9 (3.3-9.7) years. The mean period from prednisolone discontinuation to the measurement of BTMs after glucocorticoid discontinuation was 3.5 ± 1.0 months. Changes in BTMs after glucocorticoid discontinuation were modest when the daily prednisolone dose was < 0.25 mg/kg/day (ln BAP standard deviation [SD] score, p = 0.19; log intact P1NP SD score, p = 0.70; TRACP-5b, p = 0.95). When the daily prednisolone dose was [greater than or equal to] 0.25 mg/kg/day, all BTMs increased significantly after glucocorticoid discontinuation (ln BAP SD score, p < 0.01; log intact P1NP SD score, p < 0.01; TRACP-5b, p < 0.01). Conclusions Decreased BTMs can rise within a few months of discontinuing long-term glucocorticoid administration. When the administered glucocorticoid dose is low, changes in BTMs may be small.

Abstract

The aim of the hadron physics research programs conducted at J-PARC is to explore the structure of hadronic matter using the world's highest-intensity meson beams. Since the first beam was extracted at the hadron experimental facility (HEF) in February 2009, a wide variety of physics experiments have been proposed and performed to address open questions regarding quantum chromodynamics (QCD) at low energy. The high-intensity $K^-$ and high-momentum beams available at J-PARC open a new era in hadron and nuclear physics, in which strange and charm quarks play an important role. We review the programs focused on addressing the hadron structure as strongly interacting composite particles, the origin of hadron mass, and interactions between hadrons under broken flavor SU(3) symmetry., Comment: 73 pages, 42 figures, accepted for publication in PPNP

Abstract

ObjectiveTo define the frequency, duration, and severity of intractable nausea, vomiting, or hiccups in aquaporin-4-immunoglobulin G (AQP4-IgG)-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) and propose diagnostic criteria and a severity scale for area postrema syndrome (APS).MethodsAn International NMOSD database was interrogated for frequency of APS. Patients with AQP4-IgG-positive NMOSD completed an APS symptom questionnaire. Nausea and vomiting severity was derived from the Pregnancy-Unique Quantification of Emesis and Nausea (PUQE) score. The diagnostic criteria, severity scale, and immunotherapy response was applied to a prospective validation cohort of patients from multiple centers.ResultsAnalysis of an international database for AQP4-IgG-seropositive NMOSD (n = 430) revealed a high prevalence of isolated APS attacks (onset 7.1%-10.3%; subsequent 9.4%-14.5%) across continents. For 100 patients with 157 episodes of APS, nausea (n = 127, 81%) lasted for a median of 14 days (range 2-365), vomiting (113, 72%) with a median of 5 episodes/d (2-40) lasted 1-20 minutes, and hiccups (102, 65%) lasted a median of 14 days (2-365). Symptoms consistently and completely resolved following immunotherapy. Data were used to propose APS diagnostic criteria and repurpose PUQE score (hiccups severity grade based on symptom duration). The clinical utility was demonstrated in a prospective validation cohort.ConclusionIsolated APS attacks are frequently encountered both at onset and during the NMOSD course. The diagnostic criteria proposed here will assist clinicians in recognizing APS. Diagnosis of an APS attack earlier than 48 hours is possible if a dorsal medulla lesion is detected. Accurate diagnosis and evaluation of APS attack severity will assist in outcome measurement in NMOSD clinical trials.

Abstract

Background Tubulointerstitial nephritis and uveitis (TINU) syndrome is a rare disease, especially in children. Owing to the short-term observational period and the small number of patients analyzed in previous reports, the long-term clinical and laboratory characteristics and renal prognosis of children with TINU syndrome remain unclear. Methods In this retrospective observational study, we enrolled 29 children with TINU syndrome from February 1990 to February 2019. Results During the median follow-up duration of 38 months, the kidney function, urinary [beta]2 microglobulin-creatinine ratio (U-[beta]2MG/Cr), and uveitis in the patients had significantly improved at 24, 6, and 36 months after diagnosis. Higher U-[beta]2MG/Cr was associated with longer duration of kidney function normalization. Half of the patients required uveitis treatment for 5 years after the diagnosis. Conclusions Patients with severe low-molecular weight proteinuria at diagnosis needed a longer duration to achieve improvements in kidney function. Uveitis has a much longer treatment period than tubulointerstitial nephritis. This study demonstrates the good prognosis of children with TINU syndrome in terms of their long-term clinical and laboratory characteristics.

Abstract

Hypoxic training is effective for improving athletic performance in humans. It increases maximal oxygen consumption (V̇O2max) more than normoxic training in untrained horses. However, the effects of hypoxic training on well-trained horses are unclear. We measured the effects of hypoxic training on V̇O2max of 5 well-trained horses in which V̇O2max had not increased over 3 consecutive weeks of supramaximal treadmill training in normoxia which was performed twice a week. The horses trained with hypoxia (15% inspired O2) twice a week. Cardiorespiratory valuables were analyzed with analysis of variance between before and after 3 weeks of hypoxic training. Mass-specific V̇O2max increased after 3 weeks of hypoxic training (178 ± 10 vs. 194 ± 12.3 ml O2 (STPD)/(kg × min), P

Abstract

Conventional rodent neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) models using patient-derived immunoglobulin G (IgG) are potentially affected by the differences between the human and rodent aquaporin-4 (AQP4) extracellular domains (ECDs). We hypothesized that the humanization of AQP4 ECDs would make the rodent model lesions closer to human NMOSD pathology. Humanized-AQP4-expressing (hAQP4) rats were generated using genome-editing technology, and the human AQP4-specific monoclonal antibody (mAb) or six patient-derived IgGs were introduced intraperitoneally into hAQP4 rats and wild-type Lewis (WT) rats after immunization with myelin basic protein and complete Freund's adjuvant. Human AQP4-specific mAb induced astrocyte loss lesions specifically in hAQP4 rats. The patient-derived IgGs also induced NMOSD-like tissue-destructive lesions with AQP4 loss, demyelination, axonal swelling, complement deposition, and marked neutrophil and macrophage/microglia infiltration in hAQP4 rats; however, the difference in AQP4 loss lesion size and infiltrating cells was not significant between hAQP4 and WT rats. The patient-derived IgGs bound to both human and rat AQP4 M23, suggesting their binding to the shared region of human and rat AQP4 ECDs. Anti-AQP4 titers positively correlated with AQP4 loss lesion size and neutrophil and macrophage/microglia infiltration. Considering that patient-derived IgGs vary in binding sites and affinities and some of them may not bind to rodent AQP4, our hAQP4 rat is expected to reproduce NMOSD-like pathology more accurately than WT rats.

Abstract

Simple Summary: Spinal cord tumors encompass a diverse range of rare neoplasms originating from tissues in and around the spinal canal. Traditional treatment modalities like surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy have been the mainstay for managing these tumors. Nowadays, advancements in gene therapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy are offering groundbreaking possibilities. This article outlines the available and developing options for diagnosis and such treatments. Spinal cord tumors, though rare, present formidable challenges in clinical management due to their intricate nature. Traditional treatment modalities like surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy have been the mainstay for managing these tumors. However, despite significant advancements, challenges persist, including the limitations of surgical resection and the potential side effects associated with radiation therapy. In response to these limitations, a wave of innovative approaches is reshaping the treatment landscape for spinal cord tumors. Advancements in gene therapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy are offering groundbreaking possibilities. Gene therapy holds the potential to modify the genes responsible for tumor growth, while immunotherapy harnesses the body's own immune system to fight cancer cells. Targeted therapy aims to strike a specific vulnerability within the tumor cells, offering a more precise and potentially less toxic approach. Additionally, novel surgical adjuncts are being explored to improve visualization and minimize damage to surrounding healthy tissue during tumor removal. These developments pave the way for a future of personalized medicine for spinal cord tumors. By delving deeper into the molecular makeup of individual tumors, doctors can tailor treatment strategies to target specific mutations and vulnerabilities. This personalized approach offers the potential for more effective interventions with fewer side effects, ultimately leading to improved patient outcomes and a better quality of life. This evolving landscape of spinal cord tumor management signifies the crucial integration of established and innovative strategies to create a brighter future for patients battling this complex condition.

Abstract

Understanding how muscle activity changes with different surface grades during canter is essential for developing training protocols in Thoroughbreds because canter is their primary gait in training and races. We measured the spatiotemporal parameters and the activation of 12 surface muscles in the leading limb side of 7 Thoroughbreds. Horses were equipped with hoof strain gauges and cantered at 10 m/s on a treadmill set to grades of −4%, 0%, 4%, and 8%, randomly, for 30 seconds each without a lead change. Integrated electromyography (iEMG) values during stance and swing phases were calculated and normalized to mean iEMG values during stride duration at 0% grade in each muscle. The iEMG values at each grade were compared using a generalized mixed model. Stride duration significantly decreased due to shorter swing duration on an 8% grade (P < 0.001) compared to all other grades, where no significant changes were observed. Compared to a 0% grade, the normalized iEMG values during the stance phase on an 8% grade in five muscles significantly increased (Musculus infraspinatus; +9%, M. longissimus dorsi (LD); +4%, M. gluteus medius (GM); +29%, M. biceps femoris; +47%, M. flexor digitorum lateralis; +16%). During the swing phase, the normalized iEMG values in six muscles significantly increased on an 8% grade compared to a 0% grade (M. splenius; +21%, M. triceps brachii; +54%, LD; +37%, GM; +24%, M. semitendinosus; +51%, M. extensor digitorum longus; +10%). No significant changes were observed in iEMG values on −4% and 4% grades compared to the 0% grade. Although +/− 4% grades had little effect on neuromuscular responses, 8% uphill canter reduced stride duration due to decreased swing duration and required increase of muscle activation during either stance and swing phase. Canter on an 8% grade might strengthen equine muscles to increase propulsive force and stride frequency. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
