Abstract	Early diagnosis followed by proper KP is essential for the improvement of long-term prognosis for patients with BA. It is increasingly accepted that KP at ≤ 30 days of age significantly improves native liver survival rate. Published analyses in English and Japanese indicate that screening by SCC and DB/CB is potentially feasible. Screening with SCC has been implemented in Tochigi Prefecture, Japan, since 1994. The concept of SCC was introduced from Japan to Taiwan and resulted in nationwide screening with SCC for the first time in Taiwan in 2004, followed by Japan in 2012. Home-based screening using SCC is easy and cost-effective; however, it may cause some difficulties for families in case of stools with intermediate colors. Laboratory-based screening using DB/CB may detect the suspected cases earlier, resulting in an increase in the number of patients with BA who undergo KP at ≤ 30 days of age; however, the recall rate is 1% and may be beyond an acceptable range. Further studies are needed to assess the feasibility and cost-effectiveness of both home-based (SCC) and laboratory-based (DB/CB) screening for BA.

Abstract	Esophageal stricture caused by complete circumferential endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) of extensive esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a major concern and can result in a low quality of life. Normal mucosa may remain within a complete circumferential lesion of ESCC in some cases. We herein report a case of ESCC in which a complete circumferential lesion was treated with ESD while leaving an island of normal mucosa within it. This case demonstrates that preserving areas of normal mucosa within lesions during complete circumferential ESD is not technically difficult and may be an effective measure for preventing esophageal stricture.

Abstract	To extract essential information from complex data, computer scientists have been developing machine learning models that learn low-dimensional representation mode. From such advances in machine learning research, not only computer scientists but also social scientists have benefited and advanced their research because human behavior or social phenomena lies in complex data. To document this emerging trend, we survey the recent studies that apply word embedding techniques to human behavior mining, building a taxonomy to illustrate the methods and procedures used in the surveyed papers and highlight the recent emerging trends applying word embedding models to non-textual human behavior data. This survey conducts a simple experiment to warn that common similarity measurements used in the literature could yield different results even if they return consistent results at an aggregate level.

Abstract	With the recent development of technology, data on detailed human temporal behaviors has become available. Many methods have been proposed to mine those human dynamic behavior data and revealed valuable insights for research and businesses. However, most methods analyze only sequence of actions and do not study the inter-temporal information such as the time intervals between actions in a holistic manner. While actions and action time intervals are interdependent, it is challenging to integrate them because they have different natures: time and action. To overcome this challenge, we propose a unified method that analyzes user actions with intertemporal information (time interval). We simultaneously embed the user's action sequence and its time intervals to obtain a low-dimensional representation of the action along with intertemporal information. The paper demonstrates that the proposed method enables us to characterize user actions in terms of temporal context, using three real-world data sets. This paper demonstrates that explicit modeling of action sequences and inter-temporal user behavior information enable successful interpretable analysis.

Article ; Online: Clipping with double-balloon endoscopy for small intestinal venous malformations in a patient with blue rubber bleb nevus syndrome.

Abstract	Blue rubber bleb nevus syndrome (BRBNS) is a rare syndrome characterized by venous malformations in the skin and gastrointestinal tract, especially in the small intestine. Patients with BRBNS have increased risks of gastrointestinal hemorrhage and anemia. This is the first report in the English literature on BRBNS with hemangiomas in the small intestine that were treated successfully by endoscopic clipping using double-balloon endoscopy. A 25-year-old Japanese man presented to a local clinic with dyspnea, fatigue, and a hemoglobin level < 5 g/dL. The diagnosis was iron deficiency anemia. Since childhood, he had had a hemangioma in the shoulder joint and hemangiomas in the skin on the left arm. However, neither upper nor lower gastrointestinal endoscopy showed any lesions and he was referred to us for further evaluation and treatment of the anemia. Small bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) revealed hemangiomas in the small intestine, one of which was bleeding. Transanal DBE revealed a 10-mm bluish-purple hemangioma with erosion on the surface, which became smaller after application of five clips. Follow-up SBCE on day 50 showed that the hemangioma had completely disappeared. Clipping may be a safe and effective treatment for small bowel hemangioma in BRBNS.

Abstract	The effects of an extended photoperiod (EP) on body composition of Thoroughbreds colts and fillies from December at one year old to April at two years old were investigated. Seventy-three Thoroughbreds reared and trained in Hidaka Training and Research Center, Japan Racing Association, Hokkaido were used. Forty-one horses were under the EP conditions from December 20 to April 15, and the 32 horses were under natural light alone as the control group. Body weight (BW), rump fat thickness (RFT), fat free mass (FFM) and percentage of fat (%F) were used as parameters of body composition. The present study revealed that BW and FFM increased with age in the EP group in colts. In fillies, BW increased with age in both the EP and the control group, however FFM increased with age only in the EP group. From December to April, only colts had a higher rate of increase in both BW and FFM in the EP group than in the control group. However, according to the mean rates of increase in FFM from January to March, the EP group was significantly higher than the control group in both sexes. Furthermore, monthly increase rate of FFM in March was significantly higher in the EP group than in the control group in both sexes. These results suggests that EP treatment to young Thoroughbreds in training at Hokkaido, which is shorter daylength in winter, accelerate the increase of FFM, representing muscle mass.

Abstract	The peer-reviewing process has long been regarded as an indispensable tool in ensuring the quality of a scientific publication. While previous studies have tried to understand the process as a whole, not much effort has been devoted to investigating the determinants and impacts of the content of the peer review itself. This study leverages open data from nearly 5,000 PeerJ publications that were eventually accepted. Using sentiment analysis, Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic modeling, mixed linear regression models, and logit regression models, we examine how the peer-reviewing process influences the acceptance timeline and contribution potential of manuscripts, and what modifications were typically made to manuscripts prior to publication. In an open review paradigm, our findings indicate that peer reviewers' choice to reveal their names in lieu of remaining anonymous may be associated with more positive sentiment in their review, implying possible social pressure from name association. We also conduct a taxonomy of the manuscript modifications during a revision, studying the words added in response to peer reviewer feedback. This study provides insights into the content of peer reviews and the subsequent modifications authors make to their manuscripts.

Abstract	Background: Esophageal cancers other than two types, squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and adenocarcinoma, are commonly referred to as special type of esophageal cancer (STEC). Studies on STECs have been limited because of its low prevalence. Therefore, we aimed to clarify the clinicopathological findings and the long-term outcomes of STECs that were managed with ESD. Methods: We reviewed 713 patients with 1,089 lesions who underwent ESD for primary esophageal cancer except Barrett's esophageal cancer. Patients were classified into the SCC group and the STEC group, respectively. Their clinicopathological findings and long-term outcomes including disease-specific survival (DSS) were collected and examined. Results: A total of 19 consecutive patients (1.7%) were diagnosed with STEC. Nine patients were diagnosed with basaloid carcinoma, 6 with adenosquamous carcinoma, 2 with mucoepidermoid carcinoma, 2 with salivary duct-type carcinoma, and 1 with neuroendocrine cell carcinoma. There was significantly more pT1b esophageal cancer (47.4% vs. 11.0%, p < 0.01) and lymphovascular invasion (31.6% vs. 10.2%, p = 0.011) in the STEC group. Metastatic relapse and disease-specific mortality were significantly higher in the STEC group (both 15.8% vs. 1.2%, p < 0.01), and the STEC group had shorter DSS with 5-year DSS rates of 90.9%. In a subgroup analysis of patients with pT1a esophageal cancer, the 5-year DSS rate was shorter in the STEC group (p < 0.01). In the multivariate analysis, STEC (HR = 0.24) and tumor depth (HR = 12.60) were the factors associated with DSS. Conclusion: STECs are suggested to have high malignant potential and to be an independent negative prognostic factor for DSS.
