Abstract	Purpose: Treatment for polysyndactyly of the toes aims at cosmetic improvement but the lateroplantar rotation of the new fifth toe remains challenging. This study evaluated our novel surgical procedure for postaxial polysyndactyly of the toes. Materials and methods: Patients with postaxial polysyndactyly involving the fourth, fifth, and sixth toes treated in 2007 to 2017 with a minimum follow-up duration of 1 year were retrospectively investigated. Our aims of surgery for this condition were to avoid excessive lateroplantar rotation of the new fifth toe by using a proximally elongated plantar "shark-fin flap" and to make the tip of this toe appear to be naturally pointing inward by using the dog-ear component of the flap on the tip of the toe. The excess skin of the shark-fin flap was grafted onto the lateral surface of the fourth toe. Lateroplantar rotation of the fifth toe in these patients was compared with that in photographs of the feet of 96 normal 4-year-old children. Results: A total of 11 feet in 10 patients (6 male, 4 female; mean age 1.3 years) were analyzed. Syndactyly between the fourth and fifth toes was complete in 3 feet, incomplete at the level of the distal interphalangeal joint of the fifth toe in 5, and incomplete at the level of the proximal interphalangeal joint of the fifth toe in 3. Lateroplantar rotation of the fifth toe, evaluated by the mean angle between 2 intersecting lines extending from the proximal nail fold of the third and fifth toes, was 25 ± 10° in normal feet and 0 ± 12° in operated feet with polysyndactyly. The absolute left-right difference in this angle was 7 ± 5° in normal children and 22 ± 12° in patients with polysyndactyly. Valgus deformity of the new fifth toe improved in all patients during a mean postoperative follow-up of 3.8 years. Conclusions: Using our procedure, no excessive lateroplantar rotation has been observed when the tip of the fifth toe is inclined inward using a dog-ear flap component. This procedure could be useful in patients in whom the cosmetic outcome is a priority.

Abstract	In the Cumulative Advantage(CA) model, which is one of the most fundamental approaches to understand the mechanism of citation dynamics, papers receive citations depending on how much they have been already cited. On the other hand, a substantial effect not included in CA is that some surprising discoveries suddenly acquire citations after a long time from publishing. This phenomenon is known as Sleeping Beauty(SB). Since disrupting discoveries need long-time discussion by the research community to accept, SBs can capture innovative findings and reveal the nature of disruptive scientific knowledge production. To research SBs citation burst mechanism, bibliometricians consider the existence of the Prince(PR) for each SBs, which can be the trigger of SBs awakeness. For example, the discovery of Green Fluorescent Protein(GFP), which got Nobel prize in chemistry, had been overlooked for 30 years until Chalfie and Tsien, who also received the prize, developed a method to use GFP as a marker protein in genetic engineering. However, how does Chalfies and Tsiens research relight the hidden knowledge in the research community? If we can clarify such a mechanism rediscovering from nearly nothing, it can be helpful in science support and policy decision-making. This study proposes a Storyteller that focuses on the connection between SB and PR before SB gets citation burst by co-citation. PR is found to be the paper awakening SB in retrospect, but it is not easy to detect it as the trigger of SBs awakeness at the time of PR submission. We named the papers which co-cites SB and PR before the citation burst of SB as Storyteller(ST) and analyze (1) how ST contributes to broadening the novelty of SB&PR connections and (2) how much ST leads the citation burst after awakening.

Abstract	Background: For the development of new therapeutic and reconstructive methods for facial nerve palsy, it is critical to validate them in animal models. This study developed a novel evaluation method using a high-speed camera and motion analysis software for rat facial paralysis models. The validity of the new method was verified using normal rats and rats with facial paralysis. Methods: The whisker movement was recorded using a high-frame video camera. The video files were processed using motion analysis software, and the angular velocities were measured. The score was calculated as the percentage of movement on the side that had palsy compared with the movement on the normal side. Normal rats were used to examine which of the four indices of angular velocity is appropriate for this evaluation method. Using this method, two types of facial nerve palsy models were compared. Furthermore, the three agents that were predicted to promote axon regeneration from previous studies were evaluated. Results: The two averages of the protraction and retraction movement velocities of the whiskers were considered as the most appropriate indicators for this new method. Compared with the saline group, all agent groups showed significant differences in the improvement of facial palsy recovery. Conclusions: This method is an evaluation method for the effects of therapeutic intervention for facial nerve paralysis in real time without sacrificing animals.

Abstract	Delayed recognition in which innovative discoveries are re-evaluated after a long period has significant implications for scientific progress. The quantitative method to detect delayed recognition is described as the pair of Sleeping Beauty (SB) and its Prince (PR), where SB refers to citation bursts and its PR triggers SB's awakeness calculated based on their citation history. This research provides the methods to extract valid and large SB-PR pairs from a comprehensive Scopus dataset and analyses how PR discovers SB. We prove that the proposed method can extract long-sleep and large-scale SB and its PR best covers the previous multi-disciplinary pairs, which enables to observe delayed recognition. Besides, we show that the high-impact SB-PR pairs extracted by the proposed method are more likely to be located in the same field. This indicates that a hidden SB that your research can awaken may exist closer than you think. On the other hand, although SB-PR pairs are fat-tailed in Beauty Coefficient and more likely to integrate separate fields compared to ordinary citations, it is not possible to predict which citation leads to awake SB using the rarity of citation. There is no easy way to limit the areas where SB-PR pairs occur or detect it early, suggesting that researchers and administrators need to focus on a variety of areas. This research provides comprehensive knowledge about the development of scientific findings that will be evaluated over time.

Abstract	The ability of individuals with visual impairment to recognize an obstacle by hearing is called "obstacle sense". This ability is facilitated while they are moving, though the exact reason remains unknown. This study aims to clarify which acoustical factors may contribute to obstacle sense, especially obstacle distance perception. First, we conducted a comparative experiment regarding obstacle distance localization by individuals who are blind (N = 5, five men with blindness aged 22-42 (average: 29.8)) while they were standing and walking. The results indicate that the localized distance was more accurate while walking than while standing. Subsequently, the head rotation angle while walking and acoustic characteristics with respect to obstacle distance and head rotation angle were investigated. The peaks of the absolute head rotation angle during walking ranged from 2.78° to 11.11° (average: 6.55°, S.D.: 2.05°). Regarding acoustic characteristics, acoustic coloration occurred, and spectral interaural differences and interaural intensity differences were observed in the blind participants (N = 4, four men including two blind and two control sighted persons aged 25-38 (average: 30.8)). To determine which acoustic factors contribute, we examined the threshold of changes for interaural differences in time (ITD) and intensity (IID) (N = 11, seven men and four women with blindness aged 21-35 (average: 27.4)), as well as coloration (ICD) (N = 6, seven men and a woman with blindness aged 21-38 (average: 29.9))-depending on the head rotation. Notably, ITD and IID thresholds were 86.2 μs and 1.28 dB; the corresponding head rotation angles were 23.5° and 9.17°, respectively. The angle of the ICD threshold was 6.30° on average. Consequently, IID might be a contributing factor and ICD can be utilized as the cue facilitating the obstacle distance perception while walking.

Abstract	Background: Hospitalization often leads to a decline in activities of daily living (ADL) in older patients with heart failure. Although cardiac rehabilitation (CR) improves ADL, it can be difficult to perform CR due to the deconditioning of these patients. This study aimed to examine the factors associated with ADL at discharge in older patients with heart failure who underwent CR. Methods: A total of 86 of 110 older heart failure patients aged ≥ 75 years (average age, 86.9 ± 5.7 years) transferred to our institution for CR were enrolled and classified into high ADL at discharge ( Results: The GNRI was the only independent factor predicting high ADL at discharge ( Conclusion: These findings suggest that the GNRI score at admission predicts high ADL at discharge in older patients with heart failure who underwent CR.

Abstract	Background and purpose: Yoga has been studied as a rehabilitation option, but barriers to attendance remain. Videoconferencing, where participants can receive online, real-time instruction and supervision, may reduce the barriers. However, whether exercise intensity is equivalent to that of in-person yoga, and the relationship between proficiency and intensity remain unclear. The present study aimed to investigate whether the intensity of exercise is different between real-time remotely-delivered yoga via videoconferencing (RDY) and in-person yoga (IPY) and its relationship to proficiency. Materials and methods: Healthy yoga beginners (n = 11) and yoga practitioners (n = 11) performed yoga (Sun Salutation) consisting of 12 physical postures in real-time remotely delivered via videoconferencing and in-person (RDY, IPY, respectively), each for 10 min on different days, in random order, using an expiratory gas analyzer. Oxygen consumption was collected, metabolic equivalents (METs) were calculated based on the data, exercise intensity was compared between RDY and IPY, and differences of METs between beginners and practitioners in both interventions were also assessed. Results: Twenty-two participants (mean age ± standard deviation, 47.2 ± 10.8 years) completed the study. There were no significant differences in METs between RDY and IPY (5.0 ± 0.5, 5.0 ± 0.7, respectively, P = 0.92), and no difference by proficiency level in both RDY (beginners: 5.0 ± 0.4, practitioners: 5.0 ± 0.6, P = 0.77) and IPY (beginners: 5.0 ± 0.7, practitioners: 5.0 ± 0.7, P = 0.91). No serious adverse events occurred in both interventions. Conclusion: The exercise intensity of RDY is equivalent to IPY regardless of proficiency with no adverse events in RDY occurring in this study.
