Synergistic Interplay Between Free Light Chains and Natriuretic Peptides Enhances Prognostic Precision in Advanced Heart Failure

Akira Matsumori, Toshio Shimada, Hisayoshi Suma, Tadashi Isomura et autres

Background: Accurate preoperative risk stratification is crucial for optimising outcomes in patients with advanced heart failure undergoing ventriculoplasty. This study evaluated the potential prognostic value of immunoglobulin free light chains (FLCs), B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal pro BNP (NT-proBNP). Methods: We …

Stable operation of a fully energy-recovered 1-mA-class electron beam at a compact energy-recovery linac

Hiroshi Sakai, Dai Arakawa, T. Furuya, K. Haga et autres

A compact energy-recovery linac (cERL) has been under development at KEK to drive key accelerator technologies, demonstrate energy recovery under various conditions, and support beam applications. cERL began beam operations in 2013 to create stable, low-emittance, energy-recovered beams. The project focused on …

Stable beam operation of approximately 1 mA beam under highly efficient energy recovery conditions at compact energy-recovery linac

Hiroshi Sakai, Dai Arakawa, T. Furuya, K. Haga et autres

A compact energy-recovery linac (cERL) has been un-der construction at KEK since 2009 to develop key technologies for the energy-recovery linac. The cERL began operating in 2013 to create a high-current beam with a low-emittance beam with stable continuous wave (CW) superconducting …

Hyposecretion of cervical MUC5B is related to preterm birth in pregnant women after cervical excisional surgery

Yusuke Ueda, Haruta Mogami, Yoshitsugu Chigusa, Yosuke L. KAWAMURA et autres

PROBLEM: Excisional surgery for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia is a risk factor for preterm birth in subsequent pregnancies. However, the underlying mechanisms of this association remain unclear. We previously showed that cervical MUC5B, a mucin protein, may be a barrier to ascending pathogens …

Radiation transport line for Terahertz Coherent Diffraction Radiation at ERL Test Accelerator in KEK

Y. Honda, Ryukou Kato, Miho Shimada, Ryota Takai

Abstract Coherent radiation from a short bunch of electron beams is expected to be utilized as a terahertz (THz) radiation source. We have conducted an investigation on a terahertz source based on coherent diffraction-radiation (CDR) that possesses a unique characteristic of radial …

P-126 The KAT-Score is a useful indicator for predicting ongoing pregnancy in mosaic risk assessment in PGT-A: a prospective study with single vitrified-warmed blastocyst transfer

Yosuke Harada, Emi Fukunaga, Tomoko Maeda, Maki Ikeda et autres

Abstract Study question Does the mosaic risk score assessed by the KAT-Score correlate with clinical pregnancy and ongoing pregnancy? Summary answer A lower mosaic risk score assessed by the KAT-Score correlated with a higher ongoing pregnancy rate, but not with the clinical …
