    Abstract Dermatomyositis (DM) is an idiopathic inflammatory myopathy. The incidence of malignancy in DM patients is quite high. Anti-transcription intermediary factor 1-γ (anti-TIF1-γ) antibody is more prevalent in DM patients with malignancy than in those without malignancy. A 70-year-old woman developed hoarseness and difficulty swallowing. A physical examination revealed skin abnormalities. Breast cancer was found in her right breast. She was positive for anti-TIF1-γ antibody. Chemotherapy reduced the tumor size, decreased the anti-TIF1-γ antibody level, and improved her symptoms. About 2.5 years later, however, her skin symptoms worsened, and anti-TIF1-γ antibody levels increased again, and colorectal cancer was found. Treatment with endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) improved her symptoms again. Our case suggests that the exacerbating skin symptoms and parallel increase in the anti-TIF1-γ antibody level led to the detection of a second cancer after treatment of the first cancer in this case of DM.

    Abstract Introduction: Insulin resistance syndrome and lipoatrophic diabetes are characterized by severe insulin resistance and are often refractory to treatment. Trials assessing the efficacy of antidiabetes drugs for these rare conditions have been limited, however. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, which lower glycemia independently of insulin action, have shown efficacy for type 2 diabetes with insulin resistance. We here investigated the efficacy and safety of the SGLT2 inhibitor empagliflozin for treatment of insulin resistance syndrome and lipoatrophic diabetes.
    Methods: The trial was conducted at five academic centers in Japan and included seven patients with insulin resistance syndrome and one patient with lipoatrophic diabetes. Participants received 10 mg of empagliflozin daily. If the hemoglobin A
    Results: By the end of the 24-week treatment period, the mean HbA
    Conclusion: Our results demonstrate that empagliflozin shows a certain level of efficacy and safety for treatment of insulin resistance syndrome and lipoatrophic diabetes.

    Abstract Aims/introduction: Insulin resistance syndrome and lipoatrophic diabetes are rare conditions characterized by the development of treatment-refractory diabetes with severe insulin resistance. We recently conducted a 24 week, multicenter, single-arm trial (EMPIRE-01) that demonstrated a certain level of effectiveness and safety of empagliflozin for these conditions. To evaluate treatment safety over a longer period, we have now performed an additional 28 week trial (EMPIRE-02) that followed on from EMPIRE-01.
    Materials and methods: The primary and secondary outcomes were safety and efficacy evaluations, respectively. All eight subjects of the EMPIRE-01 trial participated in EMPIRE-02.
    Results: Twenty adverse events (AEs) were recorded among five individuals during the combined 52 week treatment period of both trials. Whereas one case of chronic hepatitis B was moderate in severity, all other AEs were mild. There were thus no serious AEs or events necessitating discontinuation or suspension of treatment or a reduction in drug dose. Whereas ketoacidosis or marked increases in serum ketone body levels were not observed, the mean body mass of the subjects was decreased slightly after completion of EMPIRE-02. The improvement in mean values of glycemic parameters observed in EMPIRE-01 was not sustained in EMPIRE-02, mostly because of one individual whose parameters deteriorated markedly, likely as a result of nonadherence to diet therapy. The improvement in glycemic parameters was sustained during EMPIRE-02 after exclusion of this subject from analysis.
    Conclusions: Empagliflozin demonstrated a certain level of safety and efficacy for the treatment of insulin resistance syndrome and lipoatrophic diabetes over 52 weeks, confirming its potential as a therapeutic option.

    Abstract The incidence of thrombotic complications is extremely high among severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients in the intensive care unit. Various factors such as a cytokine storm due to an excessive immune response to inflammation, hypoxemia, and disseminated intravascular coagulation are considered predisposing factors for thrombotic complications. A 55-year-old Japanese man intubated eight days previously was referred to our hospital because of a severe COVID-19 pneumonia diagnosis after his pharyngeal swab tested positive for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. The patient continued to remain hypoxic (PaO

    Abstract Immunoglobulin (Ig) G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a systemic inflammatory disease characterized by elevated serum IgG4, IgG4+ cell infiltration, storiform fibrosis, and obliterative phlebitis. While IgG4-RD can affect various organs, gastrointestinal tract involvement is less common. Here, we report a 70-year-old female with IgG4-RD complicated with diffuse and chronic gastrointestinal inflammation which led to small intestinal perforation. She had been suffering from anorexia, abdominal pain, vomiting, and diarrhea, and hospitalized due to recurrent ileus. Consequently, she was referred due to small intestinal perforation required for surgical intervention. Pathology revealed acute and chronic inflammation with massive IgG4+ plasmacytes infiltration into mucosa of the small intestine, and ischemic change secondarily caused by chronic inflammation. Random biopsies from the mucosa of stomach, duodenum, ileum, and colon, also revealed diffuse and massive IgG4+ plasmacytes infiltration in stomach, duodenum, small intestine, and colon. She was diagnosed with IgG4-RD based on the pathological findings and elevated serum IgG4 levels. Glucocorticoid rapidly ameliorated the symptoms. IgG4-RD may cause gastrointestinal manifestations and histopathological assessment should be considered, even in the absence of specific characteristics of IgG4-RD.

    Abstract Purpose: Data on immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS), despite being a widely recognized complication of antiretroviral therapy, remain limited. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the time-to-onset and factors affecting clinical outcomes of IRIS in people living with HIV (PLWH) using data from the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report (JADER) database.
    Methods: Data of PLWH who developed IRIS as an adverse event were extracted from the JADER database. Cases with the data of both the start date of anti-HIV drug therapy and date of IRIS onset were included in the study. The survey items included sex, age, anti-HIV drug use, IRIS-compatible events, time-to-onset of IRIS, and clinical outcome. The time-to-onset of IRIS was evaluated in relation to anchor drug use. Overall, 79 cases were included in the analysis.
    Results: The median (range) time-to-onset of IRIS was 29 (1-365) days, and it differed significantly between IRIS-compatible events (P = 0.029). In particular, the time-to-onset of Pneumocystis pneumonia-IRIS was the shortest among the IRIS-compatible events (median [range]: 12 [5-301] days). Age ≥ 50 years at IRIS onset appeared to be related to the poor clinical outcomes of IRIS in PLWH (P = 0.048). The use of integrase strand transfer inhibitors did not affect the time-to-onset of IRIS or clinical outcome of IRIS in PLWH.
    Conclusion: This analysis based on the data from the JADER database revealed that IRIS-compatible events were related to the time-to-onset of IRIS and that patients older than 50 years had poorer clinical outcomes of IRIS. This finding will be useful for healthcare professionals when considering medications for patients with HIV infection/AIDS and for the management of IRIS.

    Abstract Following the first case of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-Cov-2), in Wuhan, China, in December 2019, it has spread worldwide. An outbreak in Japan occurred on a cruise ship, and this was followed by community-acquired COVID-19. Herein, we report three cases of COVID-19 that presented pneumonia following admission to Kitasato University Hospital. Patients were admitted based on the positive result of real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) tests for COVID-19 nucleic acid. All patients were diagnosed as suffering from non-severe COVID-19 pneumonia and were successfully treated with Lopinavir/Ritonavir (LPV/r). LPV/r could be an option for treating non-severe COVID-19 pneumonia in general and even in elderly patients.
