    Abstract Background : Pyomyositis is a subacute bacterial infection of the skeletal muscles. Its most common features are fever, muscle swelling, and focal pain. There have been insufficient data regarding pyomyositis in healthy infants. Case report : A one-month-old boy presented with an impairment of his left arm movement. He was well-nourished and not under any apparent distress. His vital signs were within the normal limits but neurological examination revealed left forearm paralysis. Physical examination showed no abnormal findings in the region from the left shoulder joint to the fingertips. Considering these factors, an intracranial pathology was initially suspected. However, he developed a fever, regular tachycardia, and swelling in the left forearm. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed inflammation in the left forearm muscles. He was diagnosed with bacterial myositis and started on intravenous antibiotics. On the 17th day, he was discharged with oral antibiotic treatment, which was completed over 25 days without any sequelae nor relapse. Conclusion : Here we report the case of Japanese primary pyomyositis following one-day afebrile upper limb monoplegia in an infant. Even when infants exhibit afebrile symptoms, a bacterial infection should be suspected. J. Med. Invest. 68 : 372-375, August, 2021.

    Abstract Background: Aging and an increased fall risk have been demonstrated in hemodialysis patients at home and in a facility. However, studies investigating the cause of falls to prevent fractures in dialysis rooms are scarce. This study aimed to explore the related factors for accidental falls statistically in dialysis facilities for future fall prevention.
    Methods: This study included 629 hemodialysis patients with end-stage renal disease. The patients were divided into two groups: the fall and non-fall groups. The main outcome was the presence or absence of falls in the dialysis room. Univariate and multivariate logistic analyses were performed; multivariate analysis was conducted using covariates significantly correlated in the univariate analysis.
    Results: A total of 133 patients experienced falling accidents during the study period. The multivariate analysis indicated that the use of walking aid (p < 0.001), orthopedic diseases (p < 0.05), cerebrovascular disease, and age were significantly correlated with falls.
    Conclusions: In the dialysis clinic, patients who use walking aids and have complicated orthopedic or cerebrovascular conditions are at a high risk of falling in the dialysis room. Therefore, establishing a safe environment may help prevent falls, not only for these patients but also among other patients with similar conditions.

    Abstract The effect of repetitive mild hyperthermia on body temperature, the autonomic nervous system, and innate and adaptive immunity was investigated using a new hyperthermia treatment system, nanomist sauna (NMS). Six healthy volunteers participated and the concentration of catecholamines and cortisol, and the frequency and function of leukocytes in the peripheral blood were investigated before and after successive 7 days of hyperthermia treatment (20 min/day, 40°C, 100% relative humidity). After treatment, the blood level of adrenaline and cortisol on the 7th day was decreased compared with the 1st day, indicating the suppression of the sympathetic nervous system activity. Moreover, the frequency of CD56(+)NK, CD56(+)NKT and B cells on the 7th day tended to be increased compared with the 1st day. The frequency of HLA-DR-positive NK and NKT cells and expression of HLA-DR on B and T cells increased. The cytotoxicity of NK cells and proliferative response of B cells were also elevated. The results indicate that repetitive mild hyperthermia treatment might suppress excessive sympathetic dominance and modify immunity. Additionally, because it can provide the same effects as conventional hyperthermia treatments with minimal burden to the body, NMS may be a novel patient- and elderly-friendly hyperthermia treatment for health promotion.

  7. Article: Somatodendritic localization of EFA6A, a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for ADP-ribosylation factor 6, and its possible interaction with alpha-actinin in dendritic spines.

    Abstract EFA6A is a member of the guanine nucleotide exchange factors that can specifically activate ADP ribosylation factor 6 (ARF6). In this study, we identified alpha-actinin-1 as a possible interacting protein with EFA6A by the yeast two-hybrid screening with its C-terminal region as bait. The central region of alpha-actinin-1 containing a part of spectrin repeat 1 and spectrin repeats 2-3 is responsible for this interaction. In the hippocampal formation, EFA6A immunoreactivity occurred at a high level as numerous fine puncta in the strata oriens, radiatum, lacunosum-moleculare of the hippocampal CA1-3 subfields and the dentate molecular layer, whereas the immunoreactivity was faint in the neuronal cell layers and the stratum lucidum, the mossy fiber-recipient layer of the CA3 subfield. Double-immunofluorescent analyses revealed a partial overlapping of EFA6A and alpha-actinin at the dendritic spines of in vivo and cultured hippocampal neurons. Our present findings suggest that EFA6A may form a protein complex with alpha-actinin and activate ARF6 in close proximity of the actin cytoskeleton and membrane proteins in the dendritic spines.

    Abstract EFA6A is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor that is highly expressed in the nervous system with the ability to activate ADP ribosylation factor 6 (ARF6). In this study, we demonstrated the immunohistochemical localization of EFA6A in the adult mouse retina. Strong immunoreactivity for EFA6A was detected predominantly in the outer plexiform layer (OPL), where EFA6A was partially overlapped with dystrophin and synaptophysin. Immunoelectron microscopic analysis revealed that EFA6A was localized predominantly at the perisynaptic processes of photoreceptor terminals without association with synaptic ribbons. These findings suggest that EFA6A-ARF6 pathway may play a specific role at a subcompartment of perisynaptic photoreceptor processes.

    Abstract A 69-year-old man visiting our hospital with an epigastralgia and tarry stool was diagnosed as having Behçet's disease on the basis of repetitious aphthous stomatitis, erythema nodosum and arthralgia in 1991. The next year, he suffered from double active ulcers in the antrum of the stomach, and he had been operated on for intestinal perforation. In 1994, endoscopic examination revealed the gastric mucosal bridge between the double ulcers. The double ulcer healed after an eradication therapy of H. pylori, but the gastric mucosal bridge has remained there on the gastrointestinal endoscopy. The gastric mucosal bridge with Behçet's disease has not been reported in Japan, being considered to be very rare.
