Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 ( IDH1 ) and IDH2 are found frequently malignant gliomas likely involved early gliomagenesis. To understand the prevalence of these mutations their relationship to other genetic alterations impact on prognosis for Japanese glioma patients, we analyzed 250 cases. were 73 (29%) 2 (1%) cases, respectively. All detected heterozygous, most an Arg132His (G395A) substitution. IDH frequent oligodendroglial tumors (37/52, 71%) diffuse astrocytomas (17/29, 59%),...
Gliomas are classified based mainly on microscopic resemblance to their presumed glial origin such as astrocyte and oligodendrocyte. However, more objective diagnostic criteria indispensable for the precise treatment of patients. For instance, loss short arm chromosome 1 (1p) in oligodendrogliomas is recognized an important marker better response chemotherapy longer survival To gain insight into molecular biological background identify genes characterizing each subgroup, we investigated gene...
Ubiquitin, an essential protein in nonlysosomal proteolytic system, is expressed after metabolic stress to the cell. The authors investigated response of ubiquitin hippocampus Mongolian gerbil forebrain ischemia. level hippocampal was compared with that under ischemic tolerance induced by preconditioning. also studied gene expression using situ hybridization method. Transient ischemia resulted consumption free and increase multiubiquitin chains. These changes were transient outside CA1...
The effect of propentofylline, an adenosine uptake inhibitor, on ischemic tolerance was investigated in the gerbil global ischemia model. Propentofylline administered 24 hours after short preconditioning ischemia, and animals were subjected to 5-minute thereafter. at a dose 20 mg/kg intraperitoneally, but not 10 mg/kg, significantly potentiated protective CA1 hippocampal neurons. This completely abolished by simultaneous administration theophylline (20 mg/kg), receptor blocker. finding...
The aims of this study were to develop a population pharmacokinetic (PPK) model for pravastatin pharmacokinetics with regard enterohepatic circulation (EHC) and evaluate effects polymorphisms in SLCO1B1 ABCC2 on the (PK) profile quantitatively. A total 636 blood samples from 57 healthy male volunteers used. PPK analysis was carried out using nonlinear mixed effect modeling (NONMEM) validated by bootstrap analysis. PK best described EHC Erlang's distribution. covariate revealed that...
Nivolumab is approved as adjuvant treatment in subjects with resected oesophageal or gastroesophageal junction cancer (EC/GEJC) based on results from the pivotal CheckMate 577 trial. We present a model-based clinical pharmacology profiling and benefit-risk assessment of nivolumab EC/GEJC supporting less frequent dosing regimen.
The authors present the case of a 17-year old man with slit ventricle syndrome, presenting as progressive neurological deterioration after head trauma. Serial computed tomography scans revealed slight ventricular enlargement, suggesting shunt malfunction. Communication between lumbar subarachnoid space and lateral ventricles was confirmed by cisternography. He underwent lumboperitoneal shunt, resulting in complete resolution symptoms. A is considered to be promising option for treatment syndrome.
Abstract Purpose Elotuzumab plus pomalidomide/dexamethasone (E-Pd) demonstrated efficacy and safety in relapsed refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). The clinical pharmacology of elotuzumab [± lenalidomide/dexamethasone (Ld)] was characterized previously. These analyses describe population pharmacokinetics (PPK), the effect Pd, assess exposure–response relationships for patients with RRMM. Methods A previously established PPK model updated E-Pd data from phase 2 ELOQUENT-3 study (NCT02654132)....
A cerebral tumor was identified at necropsy in a mature female hooded crane (Grus monacha). On gross examination, the cut surface of revealed soft gelatinous mass. histologic mainly composed 2 discrete components that resembled oligodendroglioma and astrocytoma. Both had anaplastic changes, such as pleomorphism, high proliferative activity, microvascular proliferation, necrosis. The oligodendrogliomatous component showed honeycomb appearance formed by accumulation variably sized neoplastic...
Primitive polar spongioblastoma was first described by Russell and Cairns in 1947. However, the pattern is often seen many neuroepithelial tumors, this category deleted previous World Health Organization (WHO) classification. In 2010, Nagaishi et al . reported on a case involving tumor with typical histological of suggested that might not be suited to any tumors current WHO We report an autopsy unclassified high‐grade glioma very similar A 44‐year‐old man who presented headache exhibited...
症例は82 歳の女性.左片麻痺を認め,救急車で搬送受診.頭部CT にて明らかな異常はなく,心電図にて心房細動は認めなかった.NIHSS は18 点.頭部MRI にて,右大脳基底核に梗塞を認めた.MRA にて右中大脳動脈閉塞を認め,発症後3 時間30 分にt-PA 静脈注射を施行.t-PA 投与15 分後に左上下肢麻痺は改善したが,開始後55 分に完全失語,右片麻痺が出現した.MRA にて左中大脳動脈閉塞を認めたため,血管内手術を施行.血栓吸引し,再開通が得られた.CT にて脳出血の合併はなく,右上下肢麻痺も改善を認めた.心エコーにて明らかな心臓内血栓を認めなかったが,心電図にて心房細動を認めた.稀に,t-PA 静脈注射後に新たな脳梗塞が発生することが報告されており,いずれも予後不良である.特に心房細動を伴う患者のt-PA 静脈注射の際には脳塞栓再発の可能性も念頭におき,血管内治療の準備をしておくべきであると思われた.

During present pandemic, patients who suspected COVID-19 were instructed to call Consultation PHC prior visiting hospital. aim this study was elucidate differences polymerase chain reaction (PCR) positivity between referrals and direct walk-in patients.The single-center, retrospective cohort...
