Cooling History Redefines DSC-Derived Intermediate-Water Descriptors in Hydrated Poly(2-methoxyethyl acrylate)

Makoto Gemmei‐Ide, Yuki Ando, Fuka Ishihara, Shigehiro Kagaya

Abstract Hydration at polymer–water interfaces is often discussed using experimentally defined descriptors of sorbed water. In poly(2-methoxyethyl acrylate) (PMEA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)-derived intermediate-water-related fractions have been widely used to characterize hydration states associated with polymer–water interactions. However, these fractions are defined …

Smooth Muscle Tumor of Uncertain Malignant Potential (STUMP) in the Inguinal Soft Tissue: A Rare Case Requiring Differentiation From Metastatic Lymphadenopathy

Yuki Ando, Risako Ito, Kyoko Baba

We report a rare case of a smooth muscle tumor of uncertain malignant potential arising in the inguinal soft tissue, requiring differential diagnosis from metastatic lymphadenopathy. The patient was a 74-year-old male. On the initial examination, a painless, elastic-firm mass measuring approximately …

Streptococcus pyogenes M1UK Variant-Associated Sartorius Muscle Necrotizing Soft Tissue Infection: A Case Report and Literature Review

Kyoko Baba, Risako Ito, Yuki Ando, Haruno Yoshida et autres

Necrotizing soft tissue infections (NTSIs) represent a concept of necrotizing infections involving the skin, subcutaneous tissue, fascia, and muscle, and it is a potentially fatal disease. Early exploratory incision is strongly recommended for both the diagnosis and treatment of necrotizing soft tissue …

Functional Alteration and Differential Expression of the Bitter Taste Receptor T2R38 in Human Paranasal Sinus in Patients with Chronic Rhinosinusitis

Kota Takemoto, Luga Santo Lomude, Sachio Takeno, Tomohiro Kawasumi et autres

The bitter taste receptors (T2Rs) expressed in human sinonasal mucosae are known to elicit innate immune responses involving the release of nitric oxide (NO). We investigated the expression and distribution of two T2Rs, T2R14 and T2R38, in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) …

A Study on Approach Side in Endoscopic Partial Resection of the Nasal Septum

Tomohisa Hirai, Noriyuki Fukushima, Keishin Go, Takehiro Sera et autres

Endoscopic partial resection of the nasal septum (EPRN) is one of the approaches for septoplasty. The incision is made approximately 8 mm caudal to the junction of the septal cartilage and lamina perpendicularis of the ethmoid bone. EPRN contributes to widening of …

Effects of data bias on machine-learning–based material discovery using experimental property data

Masaya Kumagai, Yuki Ando, Atsumi Tanaka, Koji Tsuda et autres

Materials informatics (MI) research, which is the discovery of new materials through machine learning (ML) using large-scale material data, has attracted considerable attention in recent years. However, in general, the large-scale material data used in MI are biased owing to differences in …
