No full textNagasaki University (長崎大学)博士(医学)Objectives: We aimed to evaluate the effects of age on clinical characteristics and outcomes in biologic or targeted synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (b/tsDMARD)-naïve patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods: We analysed the cases of 234 Japanese b/tsDMARD-naïve RA patients who underwent b/tsDMARD treatment in a multicentre ultrasound prospective observational cohort. We compared the clinical characteristics at baseline and outcomes at 12 months between those aged ≥60 years and those <60 years. Results: Compared to the <60-year-old group (n = 78), the ≥60-year-old group (n = 156) had higher inflammatory marker values and ultrasound combined scores, especially wrist joints, at baseline. Age at baseline positively correlated significantly with the ultrasound scores at baseline; however, age was not a significant variable by the multiple regression analysis. The patients treated with different MOAs in the ≥60-year-old group had comparable outcomes and multiple regression analysis revealed that mechanism of action (MOA) was not a significant contributor to the Clinical Disease Activity Index at 12 months. Conclusions: RA patients with advanced age demonstrated distinctive clinical characteristics. The MOAs were not associated with clinical outcomes and ultrasound outcomes in RA patients with advanced age.長崎大学学位論文 学位記番号:共博(医歯薬)甲第47号 学位授与年月日:令和7年3月19日Author: Chieko Kawahara, Shoichi Fukui, Tohru Michitsuji, Ayako Nishino, Yushiro Endo, Toshimasa Shimizu, Masataka Umeda, Remi Sumiyoshi, Tomohiro Koga, Naoki Iwamoto, Tomoki Origuchi, Yukitaka Ueki, Nobutaka Eiraku, Takahisa Suzuki, Akitomo Okada, Naoki Matsuoka, HirokazuTakaoka, Hiroaki Hamada, TomomiTsuru, Yojiro Arinobu, Toshihiko Hidaka, Keita Fujikawa, TamamiYoshitama, YoshifumiTada, Hideo Ohtsubo, Jun Ishizaki, Tomoyuki Asano, Atsushi Kawakami and Shin-ya KawashiriCitation: Modern Rheumatology, 34(6), pp.1142–1148; 2024Nagasaki University (長崎大学), 博士(医学) (2025-03-19)doctoral thesi

OBSERVATION ON PSOLUS SQUAMATUS (KOREN) FROM THE OKHOTSK SEA (DENDROCHIROTA : PSOLIDAE)
No full textRecently, the author had a chance of making some close observations on two specimens of Psolus collected from the Okhotsk Sea off the northeastern coast of Hokkaido Island, Japan. These specimens were easily identified with P. squamatus (Koren) on their general morphology. This is a well-known species found rather commonly in the seas of higher latitudes in both hemispheres. Therefore, little doubts remained about this identifications at first. However, the feature of ossicles seems to differ somewhat significantly between these two specimens, and these differences remind the author of two type of the species, mentioned in detail by Ekman (1923 and 1925). Moreover, some features of ossicles in the present specimens seem to be out of the trends supposed by previous researchers on this species. Thus, it seems to the author that the present only two specimens might give a clue to make clear the morphological range of this species, and this has made the author repeat the morphological descriptions of the specimens, in the present paper, but always keeping the two types of the species and the morphological trends so far proposed by previous researchers in his mind. Prior to enter the description, the author wishes to express his hearty thanks to Mr. Goro Osagawa for his generosity in submitting the specimens to the author's examination and to the Seto Marine Biological Laboratory for every facility in carrying on his studies. Further, the author's gratitudes are due to Dr. Takasi Tokioka for his kindness in reading the manuscript
A comparison of Landau-Ginzburg models for odd-dimensional Quadrics
No full textIn [Rie08], the second author defined a Landau-Ginzburg model for homogeneous spaces G/P, as a regular function on an affine subvariety of the Langlands dual group. In this paper, we reformulate this LG model (X^, W_t) in the case of the odd-dimensional quadric, as a rational function on a Langlands dual projective space, in the spirit of work by R. Marsh and the second author for type A Grassmannians and by both authors for Lagrangian Grassmannians. We also compare this LG model with the one obtained independently by Gorbounov and Smirnov, and we use this comparison to deduce part of a conjecture of the second author for odd-dimensional quadrics
