Deciphering Auditory Hyperexcitability in Otogl Mutant Mice Unravels an Auditory Neuropathy Mechanism

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
By investigating auditory hyperexcitability in a mouse model for hereditary deafness, this study identified a subpopulation of afferent neurons of the auditory nerve marked by Otogl expression. Despite their apparently normal hearing, Otogl+/− mice display poor activation of afferent neurons processing loud sounds and an elevation of the middle the ear

Frailty and surgical outcomes in gastrointestinal cancer: Integration of geriatric assessment and prehabilitation into surgical practice for vulnerable patients

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 27-41, January 2023., 2023
Accumulating evidence demonstrates that the integration of preoperative geriatric assessment and prehabilitation for frail patients into clinical practice may improve perioperative and long‐term outcomes in patients with gastrointestinal cancer. We proposed an example for the integration of older patients‐specific care into treatment strategies for ...

The interplay of fear of pain, emotional states, and pain perception in medical and nursing students: A cross-sectional study.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
BackgroundFear of pain is known to influence pain perception and worsen pain outcomes. However, its relationship with pain threshold remains unclear. Negative emotional states, namely depression, anxiety, and stress, have been found to increase fear of ...

Prediction of need for bowel resection in acute superior mesenteric artery occlusion: A retrospective study of 48 Japanese patients

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 175-181, January 2023., 2023
In a study of 48 patients with acute superior mesenteric artery occlusion, a logistic regression model using time from onset to diagnosis and the occlusion site of superior mesenteric artery showed 78.6% sensitivity in ruling out cases requiring bowel resection.

Macrophage HM13/SPP Enhances Foamy Macrophage Formation and Atherogenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Previous research suggests that AIP may prevent atherogenic foamy macrophage formation. This study reveals that AIP, via its chaperone interaction with AHR, inhibits p38‐c‐JUN‐mediated transactivation of HM13, which encodes the ERAD protease HM13/SPP. HM13/SPP promotes foamy macrophage formation in addition to atherogenesis and plaque foamy macrophage ...
