Clinical impact of age‑specific distribution of combination patterns of cytology and high‑risk HPV status on cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or more.

To the best of our knowledge, the present study is the first to elucidate the significance of cytology and high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) status in different age groups for the detection of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN)2, CIN3 and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). There were 12 combinations based on cytology and hrHPV status [cytology: Atypical squamous cells (ASC) of undetermined significance, low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion, ASC not excluding high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) and HSIL; hrHPV status: HPV16/18-positive (16/18+), hrHPV positive for subtypes other than 16/18 (others+) and hrHPV-negative (hrHPV-)]. All patients were categorized into four groups based on age (18-29, 30-39, 40-49 and ≥50 years).

Randomised controlled trial of cultural-adapted and programme-adopted cognitive behavioural therapy for children and adolescents' anxiety in Japan: protocol for a Multi-, Inter-, and Cross-cultural Clinical Child Study (MIXCS).

Introduction: The primary objective of the Multi-, Inter-, and Cross-cultural Clinical Child Study (MIXCS) is to evaluate the hypothesis that the effects of cultural-adapted cognitive behavioural therapy (CA-CBT) and programme-adopted cognitive behavioural therapy (PA-CBT) for children and adolescents' anxiety are both superior to a psychological control (moral education control: MEC) for reducing child and adolescent anxiety disorders and symptoms as well as related constructs. The secondary objective is to explore commonalities and differences in therapy factors between CA-CBT and PA-CBT.

Method And Analysis: The study has been designed as a randomised, controlled and assessor masked multicentre superiority trial with three groups: CA-CBT, PA-CBT and MEC.

Association of Autism Spectrum Disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Traits with Depression and Empathy Among Medical Students.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the associations of the traits of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) with depression and empathy among medical students.

Patients And Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 202 fifth-year students at a Japanese medical school for 10 months during their clinical clerkship. The survey included sociodemographic questions and validated tools to measure depressive symptoms (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale [HADS]), medical students' empathy for patients (Jefferson Scale of Empathy-Student version [JSE]), ADHD traits (ADHD Self-Report Scale Screener [ASRS Screener]), and ASD traits (Autism-Spectrum Quotient Japanese version-21 [AQ-J-21]).

Vertical transmission of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus at delivery and its clinical impact: An observational, prospective cohort study.

Introduction: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection has a significant clinical impact on both pregnant women and neonates. The aim of this study was to assess accurately the vertical transmission rate of MRSA and its clinical impacts on both pregnant mothers and neonates.

Material And Methods: We conducted a prospective observational cohort study of 898 pregnant women who were admitted to our department and 905 neonates from August 2016 to December 2017.

A Case of Recurrent Hemorrhagic Corpus Luteum with Elevated Follicle-Stimulating Hormone, Controlled by Estrogen/Gestagen Therapy.

A high secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in reproductive-aged women is unusual. We report a case of recurrent corpus luteum hemorrhage and subsequent ovarian torsion with markedly elevated FSH levels in a reproductive-aged woman in the absence of functional gonadotroph adenoma (FGA) or premature ovarian failure (POF). A 22-year-old nulligravid woman with a history of bilateral hemorrhagic corpus luteum and subsequent ovarian torsion presented with acute abdominal pain.

Acceptance and commitment therapy combined with vestibular rehabilitation for persistent postural-perceptual dizziness: A pilot study.

Purpose: This study investigated the feasibility of acceptance and commitment therapy for persistent postural-perceptual dizziness and preliminarily verified the long-term effectiveness of the therapy.

Materials And Methods: This study implemented the within-group pre-post comparison design. We enrolled 27 adult patients who met the criteria of persistent postural-perceptual dizziness.

A Case of Synchronous Primary Corpus and Ovarian Cancer with Pseudo-Meigs Syndrome: Utilization of a Diagnostic Laparoscopy for the Accurate Diagnosis.

We report a case of synchronous primary corpus and ovarian cancer (SPC) with massive ascites due to Pseudo-Meigs syndrome (PMS). A 48-year-old woman presented with complaints of abnormal genital bleeding and abdominal discomfort. Massive ascites and tumors in the endometrium and right ovary were detected.

A randomized controlled trial of a bidirectional cultural adaptation of cognitive behavior therapy for children and adolescents with anxiety disorders.

Background: Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) programs with ethnic and cultural sensitivity are scarce. This study was the first randomized controlled trial of cognitive behavior therapy for children and adolescents with anxiety disorders using bidirectional cultural adaptation.

Methods: The Japanese Anxiety Children/Adolescents Cognitive Behavior Therapy program (JACA-CBT) was developed based on existing evidence-based CBT for anxious youth and optimized through feedback from clinicians in the indigenous cultural group.

A Case of Pregnancy Complicated with Evans Syndrome with Sequential Development of Autoimmune Warm Antibody Hemolytic Anemia and Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura.

The simultaneous or sequential development of autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) and idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is known as Evans syndrome. We experienced a case of Evans syndrome that developed AIHA during pregnancy and ITP long after delivery. The patient was a 35-year-old pregnant woman (gravida 2, para 1).

A Case of Pregnancy Complicated with ATIII Deficiency in a Patient Who Developed Severe Venous Thromboembolism in Her Fourth Pregnancy and Had a Favourable Outcome in Her Subsequent Pregnancy with Careful Management of Anticoagulation Therapy including Edoxaban.

Congenital ATIII deficiency is one of the congenital thrombophilia diseases that can cause severe venous thromboembolism (VTE) in pregnant patients. A 30-year-old female, 4 gravida and 2 para, came to the emergency department with a complaint of oedema and pain in the left lower leg at 11 weeks of gestation. An inferior vena cava thrombus and pulmonary embolism were found.

Gliomatosis peritonei with F-fluorodeoxyglucose accumulation and contrast enhancement secondary to immature teratoma: A case report.

Gliomatosis peritonei (GP) is a rare condition characterized by mature glial tissue implants widespread in the peritoneum, which is occasionally followed by treatment for immature teratoma (IM). The present study reported a case of GP with fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) accumulation and contrast enhancement followed by treatment for IM. A 30-year-old female, 2-gravida and 0-para, underwent laparotomy with hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, and partial omentectomy followed by four cycles of chemotherapy with bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin for IM (Grade 2) of stage IIIC.

Two cases of Wolffian tumor with novel magnetic resonance imaging findings reflecting characteristic pathology.

A Wolffian tumor is a rare tumor arising from the remnants of the mesonephric duct. Herein, we report two cases. A 61-year-old woman presented with swollen left adnexa.

Occurrence of Lectin in the Silkgland of the Silkworm, Bombyx mori: (lectin/silkgland/hemolymph).

Monoclonal antibodies were prepared against the 350 kDa lectin purified from larval hemolymph of the silkworm, Bombyx mori. The antibodies inhibited the hemagglutinating activity (HA activity) and bound specifically to the hemolymph 350 kDa lectin on Western blotting analysis. Immunohistological observations revealed the occurrence of lectin in the cuticular intima of the anterior silk gland, but not the middle or posterior silk glands of fifth instar larvae of Bombyx mori.
