    Abstract Femoral arteriovenous access is most commonly used in endovascular diagnosis and treatment. Complications arising during femoral arteriovenous access include hematoma, retroperitoneal hemorrhage, pseudoaneurysm, and arteriovenous fistula. A 66-year-old woman diagnosed with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation was treated with catheter ablation. This patient had a high femoral artery bifurcation, and we punctured the femoral vein by the conventional Merkmal method, which led to a femoral vein puncture through the deep femoral artery. The next day, echography revealed a pseudoaneurysm communicating with the deep femoral artery. We performed a thrombin injection without complication, and the pseudoaneurysm was occluded. However, echography three days after thrombin embolization showed a recurrence of the pseudoaneurysm and an arteriovenous fistula connecting to the common femoral vein. The first choice for the treatment of pseudoaneurysms and arteriovenous fistula is surgical treatment, but in addition to the lack of vascular surgery in our hospital, the patient did not want an invasive treatment and strongly preferred to be treated with a catheter. We performed endovascular treatment by VIABAHN® stent graft insertion. VIABAHN® stent graft was implanted at the deep femoral artery, and the patient was discharged without complications. VIABAHN® stent graft placement in the deep femoral artery sealed the entrance of the pseudoaneurysm and the arteriovenous fistula at once, which simultaneously treated both the pseudoaneurysm and AV fistula, and helped avoid the use of an invasive surgical procedure.

    Abstract Cloth manipulation is common in both housework and manufacturing. However, robotic cloth manipulation remains challenging, especially for less controlled and open-goal settings. We consider the problem of open-goal planning for robotic cloth manipulation, with focus on the roles of cloth representation and epistemic uncertainty. Core of our system is a neural network trained as a forward model of cloth behaviour under manipulation, with planning performed through backpropagation. We introduce a neural network-based routine for estimating mesh representations from voxel input, and perform planning in mesh format internally. We address the problem of planning with incomplete domain knowledge by introducing an explicit epistemic uncertainty penalty, using prediction divergence between two instances of the forward model network as a proxy of epistemic uncertainty. This allows us to avoid plans with high epistemic uncertainty during planning. Finally, we introduce logic for handling restriction of grasp points to a discrete set of candidates, in order to accommodate graspability constraints imposed by robotic hardware. We evaluate the system's mesh estimation, prediction, and planning ability on simulated cloth for sequences of one to three manipulations. Comparative experiments confirm that planning on basis of estimated meshes improves accuracy compared to voxel-based planning, and that epistemic uncertainty avoidance improves performance under conditions of incomplete domain knowledge. Planning time cost is a few seconds. We additionally present qualitative results on robot hardware. Our results indicate that representation format and epistemic uncertainty are important factors to consider for open-goal cloth manipulation planning.

    Abstract mRNA vaccines are promising for cancer treatment. Efficient delivery of mRNAs encoding tumor antigens to antigen-presenting cells (APCs) is critical to elicit anti-tumor immunity. Herein, we identified a novel lipid nanoparticle (LNP) formulation, L17-F05, for mRNA vaccines by screening 34 ionizable lipids and 28 LNP formulations using human primary APCs. Subcutaneous delivery of L17-F05 mRNA vaccine encoding Gp100 and Trp2 inhibited tumor growth and prolonged the survival of mice bearing B16F10 melanoma. L17-F05 efficiently delivered mRNAs to conventional dendritic cells (cDCs) and macrophages in draining lymph nodes (dLNs). cDCs functioned as the main APCs by presenting antigens along with enhanced expression of co-stimulatory molecules. Macrophages triggered innate immune responses centered on type-I interferon (IFN-I) in dLNs. Lymph node (LN) macrophage depletion attenuated APC maturation and anti-tumor activity of L17-F05 mRNA vaccines. Loss-of-function studies revealed that L17-F05 works as a self-adjuvant by activating the stimulator of interferon genes (STING) pathway in macrophages. Collectively, the self-adjuvanticity of L17-F05 triggered innate immune responses in LN macrophages via the STING-IFN-I pathway, contributing to APC maturation and potent anti-tumor activity of L17-F05 mRNA vaccines. Our findings provide strategies for further optimization of mRNA vaccines based on the innate immune response driven by LN macrophages.

    Abstract Background:  The development of minimally invasive endoscopic neurosurgery has enabled widespread application of endoscopic surgery via the ipsilateral transfrontal approach for putaminal hematoma evacuation. However, this approach is unsuitable for putaminal hematomas that extend into the temporal lobe. We adopted the endoscopic trans-middle temporal gyrus approach, instead of the conventional surgical approach, for the management of these complicated cases and determined its safety and feasibility.
    Methods:  Twenty patients with putaminal hemorrhage underwent surgical treatment at the Shinshu University Hospital between January 2016 and May 2021. Of these, two patients with left putaminal hemorrhage that extended into the temporal lobe underwent surgical treatment using the endoscopic trans-middle temporal gyrus approach. The procedure entailed the use of a thinner transparent sheath to reduce the technique's invasiveness, a navigation system to determine the location of the middle temporal gyrus and the sheath's trajectory, and an endoscope with a 4K camera for higher image quality and utility. The sylvian fissure was compressed superiorly using our novel "port retraction technique" (i.e., by tilting the transparent sheath superiorly) to avoid damage to the middle cerebral artery and Wernicke's area.
    Results:  The endoscopic trans-middle temporal gyrus approach allowed sufficient hematoma evacuation and hemostasis under endoscopic observation without any surgical complexities or complications. The postoperative course was uneventful in both patients.
    Conclusion:  The endoscopic trans-middle temporal gyrus approach for putaminal hematoma evacuation helps avoid damage to normal brain tissue, which could result from the wide range of motion of the conventional technique, particularly when the hemorrhage extends to the temporal lobe.
