Factors associated with EMS on-scene time and its regional difference in road traffic injuries: a population-based observational study.
BMC Emerg Med
September 2022
Department of Emergency and Critical Care Medicine, Nara Medical University, Shijo-cho, 840, Kashihara City, Nara, 634-8522, Japan.
Background: The outcome of road traffic injury (RTI) is determined by duration of prehospital time, patient's demographics, and the type of injury and its mechanism. During the emergency medical service (EMS) prehospital time interval, on-scene time should be minimized for early treatment. This study aimed to examine the factors influencing on-scene EMS time among RTI patients.

J Stroke
May 2022
Department of Neurology, Henry Ford Health System, Detroit, Michigan, USA.
Article Synopsis
- Recent studies showed a rise in cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) cases during the COVID-19 pandemic, prompting this evaluation of hospitalization and mortality rates comparing the pandemic year (2020) to the year prior (2019).
- A cross-sectional study analyzed data from 171 stroke centers worldwide, focusing on CVT admissions and associated mortality from January 2019 to May 2021, revealing no significant differences in overall CVT volume or mortality between 2019 and 2020.
- However, the first five months of 2021 saw a notable increase in CVT admissions compared to 2019 and 2020, with higher mortality rates linked to COVID-19-positive patients and instances of vaccine-induced immune
Successful Laparoscopic Treatment of Pancreatic Metastasis From Sigmoid Colon Cancer: A Case Report.

April 2022
Osaka Medical College Hospital, Takatsuki, Japan.
Progressive colorectal cancer frequently presents with various manifestations, including hepatic, pulmonary, and peritoneal metastases, as well as local and anastomotic site recurrences. However, pancreatic metastasis is extremely rare. Complete surgical resection is currently considered the most effective and only potentially curative treatment for colorectal cancer with distant metastases.

Breast reconstruction with transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous (TRAM) flap is performed for the treatment of large defects of the breast. However, this may result in an abdominal wall hernia or bulging. A 53-year-old Japanese woman with left breast cancer underwent left skin-sparing mastectomy, sentinel node lymph node dissection, and immediate reconstruction with a contralateral pedicled TRAM flap.

May 2022
Division of Cardiology, Cardiovascular Center, Shiroyama Hospital, Habikino, Osaka, Japan.
Objectives: This study aimed to examine whether the combination of excimer laser coronary atherectomy (ELCA) and drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty can provide feasible clinical outcome in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) with 8-month and 2-year scheduled follow-up angiography.
Background: Intracoronary thrombus elevates the risk of interventional treatment in patients with STEMI and hampers drug absorption into the vasculature released from DCB.
Methods: Sixty-two patients with STEMI within 24 h after the onset of symptoms were enrolled in this prospective, single-center, single-arm study.

Department of Neurosurgery, Osaka Medical and Pharmaceutical University, Takatsuki, Osaka 569-8686, Japan.
Background: Although boron neutron capture therapy has shown excellent survival data, previous studies have shown an increase in radiation necrosis against recurrent malignant glioma. Herein, we proposed that bevacizumab may reduce radiation injury from boron neutron capture therapy by re-irradiation. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of a boron neutron capture therapy and add-on bevacizumab combination therapy in patients with recurrent malignant glioma.

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Showa University School of Medicine, 1-5-8 Hatano-dai, Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo, Japan.
Romosozumab is a humanized monoclonal anti-sclerostin antibody (Scl-Ab) that binds and inhibits sclerostin, thereby increasing bone formation and decreasing bone resorption. In 2019, the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, and the FDA approved romosozumab for treating osteoporosis in men and in postmenopausal women at high risk of fracture. In the past decade, pharmacological systemic treatments using molecules in use for the treatment of the osteoporosis have been reported.

Division of Surgery Gastroenterological Center, Medico Shunju Shiroyama Hospital, Osaka, Japan.
Introduction: Hemorrhagic cholecystitis (HC) is a rare but specific complication of acute cholecystitis. HC progression often leads to fatal and severe outcomes.
Presentation Of Case: We describe the case of a 64-year-old man who was diagnosed with HC.
Introduction: Dysfunctions such as mucosal prolapse occur after intersphincteric resection (ISR) to treat lower rectal cancer, even when it is possible to preserve the anus.

Department of Neurosurgery, Kochi University Hospital, 185-1, Oko-cho, Kohasu, , Nankoku, Kochi, 783-8505, Japan.
Background: Surgical clipping of anterior communicating artery (ACoA) aneurysms remains challenging due to their complex anatomy. Anatomical risk factors for ACoA aneurysm surgery require further elucidation. The aim of this study is to investigate whether proximity of the midline perforating artery, subcallosal artery (SubCA), and associated anomaly of the ACoA complex affect functional outcomes of ACoA aneurysm surgery.

Objectives: We evaluated the thrombus-vaporizing effect of excimer laser coronary angioplasty (ELCA) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) by optical coherence tomography (OCT).
Background: Larger intracoronary thrombus elevates the risk of interventional treatment and mortality in patients with STEMI.
Methods: A total of 92 patients with STEMI who presented within 24 hours from the onset and underwent ELCA following manual aspiration thrombectomy (MT) were analyzed.

Objective: To measure the global impact of COVID-19 pandemic on volumes of IV thrombolysis (IVT), IVT transfers, and stroke hospitalizations over 4 months at the height of the pandemic (March 1 to June 30, 2020) compared with 2 control 4-month periods.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional, observational, retrospective study across 6 continents, 70 countries, and 457 stroke centers. Diagnoses were identified by their ICD-10 codes or classifications in stroke databases.
