    Nonsense mutation in CFAP43 causes normal-pressure hydrocephalus with ciliary abnormalities

    OBJECTIVE: To identify genes related to normal-pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) in one Japanese family with several members with NPH. METHODS:We performed whole-exome sequencing (WES) on a Japanese family with multiple individuals with NPH and identified a candidate gene.Then we generated knockout mouse using CRISPR/Cas9 to confirm the effect of the candidate gene on the pathogenesis of hydrocephalus.RESULTS: In WES, we identified a loss-of-function variant in CFAP43 that segregated with the disease. CFAP43 encoding cilia- and flagella-associated protein is preferentially expressed in the testis.Recent studies have revealed that mutations in this gene cause male infertility owing to morphologic abnormalities of sperm flagella. We knocked out mouse ortholog Cfap43 using CRISPR/Cas9 technology, resulting in Cfap43-deficient mice that exhibited a hydrocephalus phenotype with morphologic abnormality of motile cilia. CONCLUSION: Our results strongly suggest that CFAP43 is responsible for morphologic or movement abnormalities of cilia in the brain that result in NPH

    Background and purposeThe Japanese Clinical Practice Guidelines for Management of Sepsis and Septic Shock 2016 (J-SSCG 2016), a Japanese-specific set of clinical practice guidelines for sepsis and septic shock created jointly by the Japanese Society of Intensive Care Medicine and the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine, was first released in February 2017 and published in the Journal of JSICM, [2017; Volume 24 (supplement 2)] https://doi.org/10.3918/jsicm.24S0001 and Journal of Japanese Association for Acute Medicine [2017; Volume 28, (supplement 1)] http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jja2.2017.28.issue-S1/issuetoc.This abridged English edition of the J-SSCG 2016 was produced with permission from the Japanese Association of Acute Medicine and the Japanese Society for Intensive Care Medicine.MethodsMembers of the Japanese Society of Intensive Care Medicine and the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine were selected and organized into 19 committee members and 52 working group members. The guidelines were prepared in accordance with the Medical Information Network Distribution Service (Minds) creation procedures. The Academic Guidelines Promotion Team was organized to oversee and provide academic support to the respective activities allocated to each Guideline Creation Team. To improve quality assurance and workflow transparency, a mutual peer review system was established, and discussions within each team were open to the public. Public comments were collected once after the initial formulation of a clinical question (CQ) and twice during the review of the final draft. Recommendations were determined to have been adopted after obtaining support from a two-thirds (> 66.6%) majority vote of each of the 19 committee members.ResultsA total of 87 CQs were selected among 19 clinical areas, including pediatric topics and several other important areas not covered in the first edition of the Japanese guidelines (J-SSCG 2012). The approval rate obtained through committee voting, in addition to ratings of the strengths of the recommendation, and its supporting evidence were also added to each recommendation statement. We conducted meta-analyses for 29 CQs. Thirty-seven CQs contained recommendations in the form of an expert consensus due to insufficient evidence. No recommendations were provided for five CQs.ConclusionsBased on the evidence gathered, we were able to formulate Japanese-specific clinical practice guidelines that are tailored to the Japanese context in a highly transparent manner. These guidelines can easily be used not only by specialists, but also by non-specialists, general clinicians, nurses, pharmacists, clinical engineers, and other healthcare professionals

    [背景・目的] 現在, スクリーニング上部消化管内視鏡検査における咽頭領域の観察が十分に浸透しているとはいい難い状況である. 北陸地区における上部消化管内視鏡での咽頭観察の現状について調査した. [方法] 日本消化器内視鏡学会専門医114名にアンケートを送付し, 回答のあった73名を対象とし調査した. [結果] 咽頭観察を全例に行っている医師は79.5%, スクリーニングに画像強調観察(image-enhanced endoscopy:IEE)を用いた(I群)のは61.6%であった. 観察時間はI群が白色光(W群)と比べ有意に長く(p<0.001), 1年以内の癌の発見率はI群がW群と比べ有意に高かった(p=0.007). 問題点として, 観察の困難さ, 苦痛増強の可能性などの意見が多かった. [結論] スクリーニングにおける咽頭観察において, 癌の発見にはIEEにて時間をかけて観察することが重要である可能性が示唆された. 今後, さらなる咽頭観察の啓蒙活動が重要と考えられる.出版者照会後に全文公
