| 1 | Prediction of lymph node metastasis and sentinel node navigation surgery for patients with early-stage gastric cancer显示文摘Accurate prediction of lymph node(LN) status is crucially important for appropriate treatment planning in patients with early gastric cancer(EGC). However,consensus on patient and tumor characteristics associated with LN metastasis are yet to be reached. Through systematic search,we identified several independent variables associated with LN metastasis in EGC,which should be included in future research to assess which of these variables remain as significant predictors of LN metastasis. On the other hand,even if we use these promising parameters,we should realize the limitation and the difficulty of predicting LN metastasis accurately. The sentinel LN(SLN) is defined as first possible site to receive cancer cells along the route of lymphatic drainage from the primary tumor. The absence of metastasis in SLN is believed to correlate with the absence of metastasis in downstream LNs. In this review,we have attempted to focus on several independent parameters which have close relationship between tumor and LN metastasis in EGC. In addition,we evaluated the history of sentinel node navigation surgery and the usefulness for EGC. | Atsuo Shida Norio Mitsumori Hiroshi Nimura Yuta Takano Taizou Iwasaki Muneharu Fujisaki Naoto Takahashi Katsuhiko Yanaga | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,33: | 13 |

| 3 | Successful treatment of conversion chemotherapy for initially unresectable synchronous colorectal liver metastasis显示文摘A 72-year-old woman with a sigmoid colon cancer and a synchronous colorectal liver metastasis(CRLM),which involved the right hepatic vein(RHV)and the inferior vena cava(IVC),was referred to our hospital.The metastatic lesion was diagnosed as initially unresectable because of its invasion into the confluence of the RHV and IVC.After she had undergone laparoscopic sigmoidectomy for the original tumor,she consequently had 3 courses of modified 5-fluorouracil,leucovorin,and oxaliplatin(m FOLFOX6)plus cetuximab.Computed tomography revealed a partial response,and the confluence of the RHV and IVC got free from cancer invasion.After 3 additional courses of m FOLFOX6 plus cetuximab,preoperative percutaneous transhepatic portal vein embolization(PTPE)was performed to secure the future remnant liver volume.Finally,a right hemihepatectomy was performed.The postoperative course was uneventful.The patient was discharged from the hospital on postoperative day 13.She had neither local recurrence nor distant metastasis 18 mo after the last surgical intervention.This multidisciplinary strategy,consisting of conversion chemotherapy using FOLFOX plus cetuximab and PTPE,could contribute in facilitating curative hepatic resection for initially unresectable CRLM. | Kenta Baba Akihiko Oshita Mohei Kohyama Satoshi Inoue Yuta Kuroo Takuro Yamaguchi Hiroyuki Nakamura Yoichi Sugiyama Tatsuya Tazaki Masaru Sasaki Yuji Imamura Yutaka Daimaru Hideki Ohdan Atsushi Nakamitsu | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,6: | 10 |
| 4 | Efficacy of an orally active small-molecule inhibitor of RANKL in bone metastasis显示文摘Bone is one of the preferred sites for the metastasis of malignant tumours,such as breast cancer,lung cancer and malignant melanoma.Tumour cells colonizing bone have the capacity to induce the expression of receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand(RANKL),which promotes osteoclast differentiation and activation.Tumour-induced osteoclastic bone resorption leads to a vicious cycle between tumours and bone cells that fuels osteolytic tumour growth,causing bone pain and hypercalcaemia.Furthermore,RANKL contributes to bone metastasis by acting as a chemoattractant to bone for tumour cells that express its receptor,RANK.Thus inhibition of the RANKL–RANK pathway is a promising treatment for bone metastasis,and a human monoclonal anti-RANKL antibody,denosumab,has been used in the clinic.However,orally available drugs targeting RANKL must be developed to increase the therapeutic benefits to patients.Here we report the efficacy of the small-molecule RANKL inhibitor AS2676293 in treating bone metastasis using mouse models.Oral administration of AS2676293 markedly inhibited bone metastasis of human breast cancer cells MDA-MB-231-5a-D-Luc2 as well as tumour-induced osteolysis.AS2676293 suppressed RANKLmediated tumour migration in the transwell assay and inhibited bone metastasis of the murine cell line B16F10,which is known not to trigger osteoclast activation.Based on the results from this study,RANKL inhibition with a small-molecule compound constitutes a promising therapeutic strategy for treating bone metastasis by inhibiting both osteoclastic bone resorption and tumour migration to bone. | Yuta Nakai Kazuo Okamoto Asuka Terashima Shogo Ehata Jun Nishida Takeshi Imamura Takashi Ono Hiroshi Takayanagi | 2019 | Bone Research2019,7,1: | 8 |
| 5 | Feasibility of initial endoscopic common bile duct stone removal in patients with acute cholangitis显示文摘AIM To investigate the feasibility of initial endoscopic common bile duct(CBD) stone removal in patients with acute cholangitis(AC).METHODS A single-center,retrospective study was conducted between April 2013 and December 2014 and was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee at our institution.Written informed consent was obtained from each patient prior to the procedure.The cohort comprised 31 AC patients with CBD stones who underwent endoscopic biliary drainage(EBD) for na?ve papilla within 48 h after AC onset.We retrospectively divided the participants into two groups: 19 patients with initial endoscopic CBD stone removal(initial group) and 12 patients with delayed endoscopic CBD stone removal(delayed group).We evaluated the feasibility of initial endoscopic CBD stone removal in patients with AC.RESULTS We observed no significant differences between the groups regarding patient characteristics.According to the assessments based on the Tokyo Guidelines,the AC severity of patients with initial endoscopic CBD stone removal was mild to moderate.The use of antithrombotic agents before EBD was less frequent in the initial group than in the delayed group(11% vs 58%,respectively; P = 0.004).All the patients underwent successful endoscopic CBD stone removaland adverse events did not differ significantly between the groups.The number of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography procedures was significantly lower in the initial group than in the delayed group [median(interquartile range) 1(1-1) vs 2(2-2),respectively; P < 0.001].The length of hospital stay was significantly shorter for the initial group than for the delayed group [10(9-15) vs 17(14-20),respectively; P = 0.010].CONCLUSION Initial endoscopic CBD stone removal in patients with AC may be feasible when AC severity and the use of antithrombotic agents are carefully considered. | Akira Yamamiya Katsuya Kitamura Yu Ishii Yuta Mitsui Tomohiro Nomoto Hitoshi Yoshida | 2017 | World Journal of Clinical Cases2017,5,7: | 5 |
| 6 | Fulminant hepatic failure in a case of autoimmune hepatitis in hepatitis C during peg-interferon-alpha 2b plus ribavirin treatment显示文摘A 27-year-old Caucasian female with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection treated with interferon (IFN) who developed severe autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is described. The infecting viral strain was of genotype Ib and the pre-treatment HCV viral load was at a high level. The patient was treated with pegylated IFN-alpha 2b and ribavirin,and her HCV-RNA became negative at wk 12,but after that she developed fulminant hepatic failure. The patient recovered after steroid pulse therapy consisting of methylprednisolone 1000 mg/d for three days which was administered twice. A needle liver biopsy revealed the typical pathological findings of AIH. | Takayuki Kogure Yoshiyuki Ueno Koji Fukushima Futoshi Nagasaki Jun Inoue Eiji Kakazu Yasunori Matsuda Osamu Kido Yu Nakagome Osamu Kimura Noriyuki Obara Yuta Wakui Takao Iwasaki Tooru Shimosegawa | 2007 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2007,13,32: | 5 |
| 7 | Colon perforation due to antigenemia-negative cytomegalovirus gastroenteritis after liver transplantation: A case report and review of literature显示文摘BACKGROUND Cytomegalovirus(CMV) remains a critical complication after solid-organ transplantation. The CMV antigenemia(AG) test is useful for monitoring CMV infection. Although the AG-positivity rate in CMV gastroenteritis is known to be low at onset, almost all cases become positive during the disease course. We treated a patient with transverse colon perforation due to AG-negative CMV gastroenteritis, following a living donor liver transplantation(LDLT).CASE SUMMARY The patient was a 52-year-old woman with decompensated liver cirrhosis as a result of autoimmune hepatitis who underwent a blood-type compatible LDLT with her second son as the donor. On day 20 after surgery, upper and lower gastrointestinal endoscopy(GE) revealed multiple gastric ulcers and transverse colon ulcers. The biopsy tissue immunostaining confirmed a diagnosis of CMV gastroenteritis. On day 28 after surgery, an abdominal computed tomography revealed transverse colon perforation, and simple lavage and drainage were performed along with an urgent ileostomy. Although the repeated remission and aggravation of CMV gastroenteritis and acute cellular rejection made the control of immunosuppression difficult, the upper GE eventually revealed an improvement in the gastric ulcers, and the biopsy samples were negative for CMV. The CMV-AG test remained negative, therefore, we had to evaluate the status of the CMV infection on the basis of the clinical symptoms and GE.CONCLUSION This case report suggests a monitoring method that could be useful for AGnegative CMV gastroenteritis after a solid-organ transplantation. | Takahiro Yokose Hideaki Obara Masahiro Shinoda Yutaka Nakano Minoru Kitago Hiroshi Yagi Yuta Abe Yohei Yamada Kentaro Matsubara Go Oshima Shutaro Hori Sho Ibuki Hisanobu Higashi Yuki Masuda Masanori Hayashi Miho Kawaida Takehiko Mori Takumi Fujimura Ken Hoshino Kaori Kameyama Tatsuo Kuroda Yuko Kitagawa | 2019 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2019,25,15: | 5 |
| 8 | Measurement of prostaglandin metabolites is useful in diagnosis of small bowel ulcerations显示文摘BACKGROUND We recently reported on a hereditary enteropathy associated with a gene encoding a prostaglandin transporter and referred to as chronic enteropathy associated with SLCO2 A1 gene(CEAS). Crohn's disease(CD) is a major differential diagnosis of CEAS, because these diseases share some clinical features. Therefore, there is a need to develop a convenient screening test to distinguish CEAS from CD.AIM To examine whether prostaglandin E major urinary metabolites(PGE-MUM) can serve as a biomarker to distinguish CEAS from CD.METHODS This was a transactional study of 20 patients with CEAS and 98 patients with CD.CEAS was diagnosed by the confirmation of homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation of SLCO2 A1. We measured the concentration of PGEMUM in spot urine by radioimmunoassay, and the concentration was compared between the two groups of patients. We also determined the optimal cut-off value of PGE-MUM to distinguish CEAS from CD by receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve analysis.RESULTS Twenty Japanese patients with CEAS and 98 patients with CD were enrolled.PGE-MUM concentration in patients with CEAS was significantly higher than that in patients with CD(median 102.7 vs 27.9 μg/g × Cre, P < 0.0001). One log unit increase in PGE-MUM contributed to 7.3 increase in the likelihood for the diagnosis of CEAS [95% confidence interval(CI) 3.2-16.7]. A logistic regression analysis revealed that the association was significant even after adjusting confounding factors(adjusted odds ratio 29.6, 95%CI 4.7-185.7). ROC curve analysis revealed the optimal PGE-MUM cut-off value for the distinction of CEAS from CD to be 48.9 μg/g × Cre with 95.0% sensitivity and 79.6% specificity.CONCLUSION PGE-MUM measurement is a convenient, non-invasive and useful test for the distinction of CEAS from CD. | Yuichi Matsuno Junji Umeno Motohiro Esaki Yoichiro Hirakawa Yuta Fuyuno Yasuharu Okamoto Atsushi Hirano Shigeyoshi Yasukawa Fumihito Hirai Toshiyuki Matsui Shuhei Hosomi Kenji Watanabe Naoki Hosoe Haruhiko Ogata Tadakazu Hisamatsu Shunichi Yanai Shuji Kochi Koichi Kurahara Tsuneyoshi Yao Takehiro Torisu Takanari Kitazono Takayuki Matsumoto | 2019 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2019,25,14: | 5 |
| 9 | Protocol liver biopsy is the only examination that can detect mid-term graft fibrosis after pediatric liver transplantation显示文摘AIM:To assessed the clinical significance of protocol liver biopsy(PLB)in pediatric liver transplantation(LT).METHODS:Between July 2008 and August 2012,89and 55 PLBs were performed in pediatric patients at two and five years after LT,respectively.We assessed the histopathological findings using the Metavir scoring system,including activity(A)and fibrosis(F),and we identified factors associated with scores of≥A1 and≥F1.Our results clarified the timing and effectiveness of PLB.RESULTS:The incidences of scores of≥A1 and≥F1 were 24.7%and 24.7%,respectively,at two years after LT and 42.3%and 34.5%,respectively,at five years.Independent risk factors in a multivariate analysis of a score of≥A1 at two years included≥2 h ofcold ischemic time,no acute cellular rejection and an alanine amino transaminase(ALT)level of≥20 IU/L(P=0.028,P=0.033 and P=0.012,respectively);however,no risk factors were identified for a score of≥F1.Furthermore,no independent risk factors associated with scores of≥A1 and≥F1 at five years were identified using multivariate analysis.A ROC curve analysis of ALT at two years for a score of≥A1 demonstrated the recommended cutoff value for diagnosing≥A1 histology to be 20 IU/L.The incidence of scores of≥A2 or≥F2 at two years after LT was 3.4%(three cases),and all patients had an absolute score of≥A2.In contrast to that observed for PLBs at five years after LT,the incidence of scores of≥A2 or≥F2 was 20.0%(11 cases),and all patients had an absolute score of≥F2.In all cases,the dose of immunosuppressants was increased after the PLB,and all ten patients who underwent a follow-up liver biopsy improved to scores of≤A1 or F1.CONCLUSION:PLB at two years after LT is an unnecessary examination,because the serum ALT level reflects portal inflammation.In addition,immunosuppressive therapy should be modulated to maintain the ALT concentration at a level less than 20 IU/L.PLB at five years is an excellent examination for the detection of early reversible graft fibrosis because no serum markers reflect this finding. | Yukihiro Sanada Koshi Matsumoto Taizen Urahashi Yoshiyuki Ihara Taiichi Wakiya Noriki Okada Naoya Yamada Yuta Hirata Koichi Mizuta | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,21: | 5 |
| 10 | Drag-reduction behavior of an unusual nonionic surfactant in a circular pipe turbulent flow显示文摘The Alkyl Polyglucoside(APG) is a nonionic surfactant with no toxicity and with high biodegradability, its drag-reduction behavior in a circular pipe flow is measured, and the rheological characteristics are investigated with a rheometer with a cone-plate flow cell. From the measured results, the APG is shown to have a high drag-reduction capacity, whose shear viscosity is shear-ratedependent at high concentrations, while its solution at concentrations with drag-reduction effects is non-viscoelastic as verified by zero relaxation time in the relaxation process of the shear stress, which contradicts the general viewpoint that there is a correlation between the viscoselastic characteristics and the turbulent drag reduction for the drag-reduction surfactant. However, the APG solution is birefringent as observed through a birefringent test, which indicates that there are rod-shaped micelles in the solution under the shearing flow. The higher extensional viscosity inferred from the extensional phenomenon observed in the measurements of the shear viscosity could be responsible for the drag reduction property of this nonionic surfactant. | 蔡书鹏 HIGUCHI Yuta | 2014 | Journal of Hydrodynamics2014,26,3: | 5 |
| 11 | Serum Neutrophil Gelatinase-associated Lipocalin(NGAL)Is Elevated in Patients with Asthma and Airway Obstruction显示文摘Neutrophilic airway inflammation is one of the features of severe asthma.Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin(NGAL),or lipocalin-2,is a glycoprotein associated with neutrophilic inflammation and can be detected in blood.Recently,blood NGAL levels have been reported to be elevated in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.However,the clinical significance of serum NGAL levels in patients with asthma has not been elucidated.The aim of this study was to explore the association between serum NGAL level and clinical parameters in patients with asthma.Sixty.one non-smoking people with stable asthma were enrolled in this study.All patients underwent blood ollction and pulmonary function tests.The associations between serum NGAL levels and clinical parameters were analyzed retrospectively.Serum NGAL levels in patients with asthma and obstructive ventilatory defect were higher than those in patients with asthma without obstructive ventilatory defect(76.4±51.4 ng/mL vs.39.3±27.4 ng/mL,P=0.0019).Serum NGAL levels were correlated with forced expired flow at 50%of vital capacity%predicted and forced expired flow at 75%of vital capacity%predicted(r=-0.3373,P=0.0078 and r=0.2900,P=0.0234,respectively).Results of a multiple regression analysis demonstrated that serum NGAL level was independently associated with obstructive ventilatory defect.Serum NGAL levels were elevated in patients with asthma and obstructive ventilatory defect.NGAL may be involved in airway remodeling possibly mediated by neutrophilic inflammation in asthma. | Junichiro Kawagoe Yuta Kono Yuki Togashi Mayuko Ishiwari Kazutoshi Toriyama Chika Yajima Hideaki Nakayama Satoshi Kasagi Shinji Abe Yasuhiro Setoguchi | 2021 | Current Medical Science2021,41,2: | 5 |

| 13 | Counter-Rotating Type Tidal Stream Power Unit Boarded on Pillar(Performances and Flow Conditions of Tandem Propellers)显示文摘The authors have invented the unique counter-rotating type tidal stream power unit composed of the tandem propellers and the double rotational armature type peculiar generator without the traditional stator. The front and the rear propellers counter-drive the inner and the outer armatures of the peculiar generator, respectively. The unit has the fruitful advantages that not only the output is sufficiently higher without supplementary equipment such as a gearbox, but also the rotational moment hardly act on the pillar because the rotational torque of both propellers/armatures are counter-balanced in the unit. This paper discusses experimentally the performances of the power unit and the effects of the propeller rotation on the sea surface. The axial force acting on the pillar increases naturally with the increase of not only the stream velocity but also the drag of the tandem propellers. Besides, the force vertical to the stream also acts on the pillar, which is induced from the Karman vortex street and the dominant frequencies appear owing to the front and the rear propeller rotations. The propeller rotating in close to the sea surface brings the abnormal wave and the amplitude increases as the stream velocity is faster and/or the drag is stronger. | Yuta Usui Toshiaki Kanemoto Koju Hiraki | 2013 | Journal of Thermal Science2013,22,6: | 4 |
| 14 | Anisotropic brittle-ductile transition of monocrystalline sapphire during orthogonal cutting and nanoindentation experiments显示文摘Single-crystal sapphire is utilized as a high-performance engineering material,especially in extreme and harsh environments.However,due to its extreme hardness and brittleness,the machinability of sapphire is still a challenge.By means of nanoindentation and plunge-cut experiments,the anisotropic brittle-ductile transition of the prismatic M-plane and rhombohedral R-plane is examined by analyzing crack morphologies and the critical depth-of-cut(CDC).The experimental results of the nanoindentation tests are correlated to the plunge-cut experiment.Both the prism plane and the rhombohedral crystal plane exhibit a two-fold symmetry of ductility with various crack patterns along the machined grooves.The direction-dependent plasticity of the hexagonal sapphire crystal is mainly connected to a twinning process accompanied by slip dislocation. | Philipp Maas Yuta Mizumoto Yasuhiro Kakinuma Sangkee Min | 2018 | Nanotechnology and Precision Engineering2018,1,3: | 3 |
| 15 | Pre-hepatectomy type Ⅳ collagen 7S predicts post-hepatectomy liver failure and recovery显示文摘BACKGROUND Liver resection is an effective treatment for benign and malignant liver tumors.However,a method for preoperative evaluation of hepatic reserve has not yet been established.Previously reported assessments of preoperative hepatic reserve focused only on liver failure in the early postoperative period and did not consider the long-term recovery of hepatic reserve.When determining eligibility for hepatectomy,the underlying pathophysiology needs to be considered to determine if the functional hepatic reserve can withstand both surgery and any postoperative therapy.AIM To identify pre-hepatectomy factors associated with both early postoperative liver failure and long-term postoperative liver function recovery.METHODS This study was a retrospective cohort study.We retrospectively investigated 215 patients who underwent hepatectomy at our hospital between May 2013 and December 2016.Early post-hepatectomy liver failure(PHLF)was defined using the International Study Group of Liver Surgery’s definition of PHLF.Long-term postoperative recovery of liver function was defined as the time taken for serum total bilirubin and albumin levels to return to levels of<2 mg/dL and>2.8 g/dL,respectively,and the time taken for Child-Pugh score to return to Child-Pugh class A.RESULTS Preoperative type IV collagen 7S was identified as a significant independent factor associated with both PHLF and postoperative long-term recovery of liver function.Further analysis revealed that the time taken for the recovery of Child-Pugh scores and serum total bilirubin and albumin levels was significantly shorter in patients with type IV collagen 7S≤6 ng/mL than in those with type IV collagen 7S>6 ng/mL.In additional analyses,similar results were observed in patients without chronic viral hepatitis associated with fibrosis.CONCLUSION Preoperative type IV collagen 7S is a preoperative predictor of PHLF and longterm postoperative liver function recovery.It can also be used in patients without chronic hepatitis virus. | Masatsugu Ishii Osamu Itano Masahiro Shinoda Minoru Kitago Yuta Abe Taizo Hibi Hiroshi Yagi Ayano Takeuchi Hanako Tsujikawa Tokiya Abe Yuko Kitagawa | 2020 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2020,26,7: | 3 |
| 16 | Cronkhite-Canada syndrome associated with myelodysplastic syndrome显示文摘We report a case of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome(CCS)associated with myelodysplastic syndrome(MDS).A 54-year-old woman,diagnosed as MDS the prior year after evaluation of anemia,visited our hospital with the chief complaint of epigastric discomfort.She also had dysgeusia,alopecia,atrophic nail change,and pigmentation of the palm,all of which began several months ago.Blood tests revealed severe hypoalbuminemia.Colonoscopy(CS)showed numerous,dense,red polyps throughout the colon and rectum.Biopsy specimens showed stromal edema,infi ltration of lymphocytes,and cystic dilatation of the crypt.Her clinical manifestations and histology were consistent with CCS.We prescribed corticosteroids,which dramatically improved her physical findings,laboratory data,and endoscopic fi ndings.This is the first report of CCS in a patient with MDS. | Rei Suzuki Atsushi Irisawa Takuto Hikichi Yuta Takahashi Hiroko Kobayashi Hiromi Kumakawa Hiromasa Ohira | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009,15,46: | 3 |
| 17 | Hemorrhagic shock due to submucosal esophageal hematoma along with mallory-weiss syndrome:A case report显示文摘BACKGROUND Esophageal submucosal hematoma is a rare condition.Although the exact etiology remains uncertain,vessel fragility with external factors is believed to have led to submucosal bleeding and hematoma formation;the vessel was ruptured by a sudden increase in pressure due to nausea,and the hematoma was enlarged by antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy.Serious conditions are rare,with a better prognosis.We present the first known case of submucosal esophageal hematoma-subsequent hemorrhagic shock due to Mallory-Weiss syndrome.CASE SUMMARY A 73-year-old female underwent endovascular treatment for an unruptured cerebral aneurysm.The patient received aspirin and clopidogrel before surgery and heparin during surgery,and was well during the surgery.Several hours after returning to the ICU,she complained of chest discomfort,vomited 500 m L of fresh blood,and entered hemorrhagic shock.Esophageal submucosal hematoma with Mallory-Weiss syndrome was diagnosed through an endoscopic examination and computed tomography.In addition to a massive fluid and erythrocyte transfusion,we performed a temporary compression for hemostasis with a Sengstaken-Blakemore(S-B)tube.Afterwards,she became hemodynamically stable.On postoperative day 1,we performed an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and confirmed no expansion of the hematoma nor any recurring bleeding;therefore,we removed the S-B tube and clipped the gastric mucosal laceration at the esophagogastric junction.We started oral intake on postoperative day 10.The patient made steady progress,and was discharged on postoperative day 33.CONCLUSION We present the first known case of submucosal esophageal hematoma subsequent hemorrhagic shock due to Mallory-Weiss syndrome. | Jiro Oba Daisuke Usuda Shiho Tsuge Riki Sakurai Kenji Kawai Shun Matsubara Risa Tanaka Makoto Suzuki Hayabusa Takano Shintaro Shimozawa Yuta Hotchi Kenki Usami Shungo Tokunaga Ippei Osugi Risa Katou Sakurako Ito Kentaro Mishima Akihiko Kondo Keiko Mizuno Hiroki Takami Takayuki Komatsu Tomohisa Nomura Manabu Sugita | 2022 | World Journal of Clinical Cases2022,10,27: | 3 |
| 18 | Augmented reality: The use of the PicoLinker smart glasses improves wire insertion under fluoroscopy显示文摘AIM To demonstrate the feasibility of the wearable smart glasses, Pico Linker, in guide wire insertion under fluoroscopic guidance. METHODS Under a fluoroscope, a surgeon inserted 3 mm guide wires into plastic femurs from the lateral cortex to the femoral head center while the surgeon did or did not wear Pico Linker, which are wearable smart glasses where the fluoroscopic video was displayed(10 guide wires each). RESULTS The tip apex distance, radiation exposure time and total insertion time were significantly shorter while wearing the Pico Linker smart glasses. CONCLUSION This study indicated that the Pico Linker smart glasses can improve accuracy, reduce radiation exposure time, and reduce total insertion time. This is due to the fact that the Pico Linker smart glasses enable surgeons to keep their eyes on the operation field. | Takafumi Hiranaka Takaaki Fujishiro Yuichi Hida Yosaku Shibata Masanori Tsubosaka Yuta Nakanishi Kenjiro Okimura Harunobu Uemoto | 2017 | World Journal of Orthopedics2017,8,12: | 3 |
| 19 | Automated crystal structure analysis based on blackbox optimisation显示文摘In the present study,we show that time-consuming manual tuning of parameters in the Rietveld method,one of the most frequently used crystal structure analysis methods in materials science,can be automated by considering the entire trial-and-error process as a blackbox optimisation problem.The automation is successfully achieved using Bayesian optimisation,which outperforms both a human expert and an expert-system type automation despite the absence of expertise.This approach stabilises the analysis quality by eliminating human-origin variance and bias,and can be applied to various analysis methods in other areas which also suffer from similar tiresome and unsystematic manual tuning of extrinsic parameters and human-origin variance and bias. | Yoshihiko Ozaki Yuta Suzuki Takafumi Hawai Kotaro Saito Masaki Onishi Kanta Ono | 2020 | npj Computational Materials2020,,1: | 3 |
| 20 | Study on Rotational Frequency Noise in a Centrifugal Compressor for Automobile Turbochargers显示文摘The rotational frequency noise(also known as the pulsation noise) due to the mistuning of impeller blade rows introduced at the manufacturing stage of the impellers is observed in the small-sized centrifugal compressor for automobile turbochargers. The present paper addresses the elucidation of the generating mechanism and parameter dependency such as the kind and degree of mistuning. In order to analyze numerically the rotational frequency noise due to mistuning, the unsteady computational fluid dynamics(CFD) of the whole compressor including volute is executed, and the resultant time history of the pressure is fed into the spectral analysis. | Daichi Wakaki Yuta Sakuka Nobuhiko Yamasaki Akihiro Yamagata | 2014 | Journal of Thermal Science2014,23,1: | 3 |
