    Abstract Aims Little is known about the association between habitual alcohol consumption and serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in women. We aimed to investigate this association in middle-aged Japanese women in a community-based cohort study using conventional statistical analyses and explainable artificial intelligence (AI) analysis. Methods We retrospectively investigated the association between alcohol consumption and HDL-C after 10 years in 90,053 women aged 40-64 years whose drinking habits were generally consistent for 10 years. Results After 10 years, 11.3% and 17.9% of subjects had serum HDL-C decreased by ≥10 mg/dL and ≥10%, respectively. In unadjusted analysis, moderate-to-heavy alcohol consumption may both increase and decrease serum HDL-C levels after 10 years. After adjustment for potential confounding factors, moderate (23-45 g/day) and heavy (≥46 g/day) alcohol consumption were each significantly associated with decreases in HDL-C (OR (95% CI): 1.18 and 1.36 (1.11-1.26 and 1.21-1.53) for ≥10 mg/dL, 1.11 and 1.29 (1.05-1.17 and 1.17-1.43) for ≥10%), but not associated with an increase in HDL-C (0.96 and 0.98 (0.91-1.01 and 0.89-1.08) for ≥10 mg/dL, 0.97 and 0.96 (0.93-1.01 and 0.88-1.05) for ≥10%). Further analysis after adjustment for baseline serum HDL-C showed the same results. AI analysis showed that alcohol consumption was the 8th positive contributor to the decrease in HDL-C, following baseline high HDL-C (≥77 mg/dL), high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (≥133 mg/dL), high body mass index (≥23.1 kg/m

    Abstract The Japanese National Database (NDB), a useful data source for epidemiological studies, contains information on health checkups, disease diagnoses, and medications, which can be used when investigating common cardiometabolic diseases. However, before the initiation of an integrated analysis, we need to combine several pieces of information prepared separately into an all-in-one dataset (AIOD) and confirm the validation of the dataset for the study. In this study, we aimed to confirm the degree of agreement in data entries between diagnoses and prescribed medications and self-reported pharmacotherapy for common cardiometabolic diseases in newly assembled AIODs. The present study included 10,183,619 people who underwent health checkups from April 2018 to March 2019. Over 95% of patients prescribed antihypertensive and antidiabetic medications were diagnosed with each disease. For dyslipidemia, over 95% of patients prescribed medications were diagnosed with at least one of the following: dyslipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, or hyperlipidemia. Similarly, over 95% of patients prescribed medications for hyperuricemia were diagnosed with either hyperuricemia or gout. Additionally, over 90% of patients with self-reported medications for hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia were diagnosed with each disease, although the proportions differed among age groups. Our study demonstrated high levels of agreement between diagnoses and prescribed medications for common cardiometabolic diseases and self-reported pharmacotherapy in our AIOD.

    Abstract Objectives: To analyze the clinical and histopathological characteristics of oral leukoplakia (OL) in the Japanese population and investigate the prevalence and risk factors for epithelial dysplasia (ED) and carcinoma within lesions.
    Study design: Data, including age, sex, lesion site, and histopathological features, of 676 cases diagnosed with OL over the previous 10 years were analyzed. Dysplasia and carcinoma prevalence were determined.
    Results: In male patients, the most affected site was the gingiva (42.7%), whereas in females, it was the tongue (47.6%). Moreover, ED was more prevalent in males (41.9%), whereas epithelial hyperplasia was more common in females (44.7%). A significant difference was observed between affected sites with regard to the presence of dysplasia. The ED rates by site were 64.6% and 33.7% for the tongue and gingiva, respectively (P < 0.05). The squamous cell carcinoma rates by site were 23.4%, 5.4%, and 3.4% for the tongue, buccal mucosa, and gingiva, respectively (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis revealed a higher prevalence of dysplasia in males than it did in females and that the risk for both dysplasia and carcinoma was highest in the tongue.
    Conclusions: Dysplasia is common in OL cases, often showing carcinoma. Early biopsy and interventions are key in OL management.

    Abstract Purpose: Liquid-based cytology is highly useful in oral cytology. However, there are only few reports on the accuracy of this method. The current study aimed to compare oral liquid-based cytological and histological diagnoses and to evaluate items that should be considered in oral cytological diagnosis for oral squamous cell carcinoma.
    Methods: We included 653 patients who underwent both oral cytological and histological examinations. Data on sex, specimen collection region, cytological and histological diagnoses, and histological images were reviewed.
    Results: The overall male-to-female ratio was 1:1.18. The tongue was the most common specimen collection region, followed by the gingiva and buccal mucosa. The most common cytological examination result was negative (66.8%), followed by doubtful (22.7%) and positive (10.3%). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of cytological diagnosis were 69%, 75%, 38%, and 92%, respectively. Approximately 8.3% of patients with a negative cytological diagnosis had a histological diagnosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma. Furthermore, 86.1% of histopathologic images of cytology-negative squamous cell carcinomas exhibited well-differentiated keratinocytes lacking atypia on the surface. The remaining patients developed recurrence, or they had low cell counts.
    Conclusion: Liquid-based cytology is useful in screening oral cancer. However, a cytological diagnosis of superficial-differentiated oral squamous cell carcinoma is occasionally inconsistent with the histological diagnosis. Therefore, histological and cytological examinations should be performed if tumor-like lesions are suspected clinically.
