    Abstract We developed a model to represent the time evolution phenomena of life through physics constraints. To do this, we took into account that living organisms are open systems that exchange messages through intracellular communication, intercellular communication and sensory systems, and introduced the concept of a message force field. As a result, we showed that the maximum entropy generation principle is valid in time evolution. Then, in order to explain life phenomena based on this principle, we modelled the living system as a nonlinear oscillator coupled by a message and derived the governing equations. The governing equations consist of two laws: one states that the systems are synchronized when the variation of the natural frequencies between them is small or the coupling strength through the message is sufficiently large, and the other states that the synchronization is broken by the proliferation of biological systems. Next, to simulate the phenomena using data obtained from observations of the temporal evolution of life, we developed an inference model that combines physics constraints and a discrete surrogate model using category theory, and simulated the phenomenon of early embryogenesis using this inference model. The results show that symmetry creation and breaking based on message force fields can be widely used to model life phenomena.

    Abstract Sialadenitis has rarely been reported in patients with infectious mononucleosis (IM). Our patient was a 22-year-old man who presented with bilateral swelling of the parotid and submandibular glands, a fever, malaise, and splenomegaly. Laboratory tests revealed an increased percentage of atypical lymphocytes in the leukocyte fraction. Serological testing for antibodies against Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) revealed an acute infection pattern. The patient was diagnosed with sialadenitis associated with IM caused by EBV infection. With symptomatic treatment, the salivary gland swelling completely resolved within a week. This case suggests that EBV-induced IM should be included in the differential diagnosis of diffuse sialadenitis with elevated atypical lymphocyte counts.

    Abstract Background: Gram-negative rod (GNR) bacteremia has been suggested as a clinical marker of occult cancer; however, no studies are available in this regard in the Japanese population. Here, we investigated the risk factors for gastrointestinal cancer with GNR bacteremia.
    Methods: Patients with GNR bacteremia admitted to St. Luke's International Hospital between January 2011 and July 2021 were included. The clinical data of patients with and without cancer, 1 year before and after GNR bacteremia diagnosis, were compared. Univariate analysis was performed using χ2 and Fisher's exact tests for categorical variables and the Mann-Whitney U test for continuous variables, while multivariable analysis was performed using logistic regression analysis, and a P of <0.05 was considered statistically significant.
    Results: Of 2,296 GNR bacteremia-positive patients, 96 were associated with gastrointestinal cancer, and univariate analysis showed significant differences between the gastrointestinal cancer and comparison groups in terms of mean body mass index (BMI; 20.5 vs. 21.8 kg/m2 ), Enterobacterales detection (64.6% vs. 81.3%), and anaerobic GNR detection (24.0% vs. 8.5%). Thirty-five (36%) and 61 (64%) patients had upper and lower gastrointestinal cancer, respectively. There were 23 patients with anaerobic GNR bacteremia related to 24 strains (upper and lower gastrointestinal cancer, 5 and 18 cases, respectively). Multivariate analysis identified anaerobic GNR [odds ratio, 3.440; 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.085-5.675, P<0.001] as a significant risk factor for cancer.
    Conclusions: Anaerobic GNR in blood cultures may be a risk factor for gastrointestinal cancer. Therefore, it is necessary consider cancer workup, such as endoscopy, for patients with anaerobic GNR bacteremia.
