Crystal Structure, Electronic Structure, and Photocatalytic Activity of Oxysulfides: La2Ta2ZrS2O8, La2Ta2TiS2O8, and La2Nb2TiS2O8.

Inorganic chemistry

Goto Y, Seo J, Kumamoto K, Hisatomi T, Mizuguchi Y, Kamihara Y, Katayama M, Minegishi T, Domen K.
PMID: 27008368
Inorg Chem. 2016 Apr 04;55(7):3674-9. doi: 10.1021/acs.inorgchem.6b00247. Epub 2016 Mar 23.

The novel oxysulfides La2Ta2ZrS2O8 (LTZSO), La2Ta2TiS2O8 (LTTSO), and La2Nb2TiS2O8 (LNTSO) were synthesized, and their crystal structures, electronic structures, and photocatalytic activities for water splitting under visible light were investigated. Density functional theory calculations showed that these compounds are direct-band-gap...

Atomically ordered solute segregation behaviour in an oxide grain boundary.

Nature communications

Feng B, Yokoi T, Kumamoto A, Yoshiya M, Ikuhara Y, Shibata N.
PMID: 27004614
Nat Commun. 2016 Mar 23;7:11079. doi: 10.1038/ncomms11079.

Grain boundary segregation is a critical issue in materials science because it determines the properties of individual grain boundaries and thus governs the macroscopic properties of materials. Recent progress in electron microscopy has greatly improved our understanding of grain...

Efficacy and safety of laparoscopic surgery in elderly patients with colorectal cancer.

Molecular and clinical oncology

Inoue Y, Kawamoto A, Okugawa Y, Hiro J, Saigusa S, Toiyama Y, Araki T, Tanaka K, Mohri Y, Kusunoki M.
PMID: 26171203
Mol Clin Oncol. 2015 Jul;3(4):897-901. doi: 10.3892/mco.2015.530. Epub 2015 Mar 30.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is predominantly a disease of the elderly. Elderly patients may also exhibit poorer outcomes due to the increased burden of comorbidities, functional dependency and limited life expectancy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the...

Accuracy of Percutaneous Pedicle Screw Insertion Technique with Conventional Dual Fluoroscopy Units and a Retrospective Comparative Study Based on Surgeon Experience.

Global spine journal

Nakahara M, Yasuhara T, Inoue T, Takahashi Y, Kumamoto S, Hijikata Y, Kusumegi A, Sakamoto Y, Ogawa K, Nishida K.
PMID: 27190733
Global Spine J. 2016 Jun;6(4):322-8. doi: 10.1055/s-0035-1563405. Epub 2015 Sep 22.

Study Design Retrospective comparative study. Objective To evaluate the accuracy of percutaneous pedicle screw (PPS) placement and intraoperative imaging time using dual fluoroscopy units and their differences between surgeons with more versus less experience. Methods One hundred sixty-one patients...

Developmental downregulation of LIS1 expression limits axonal extension and allows axon pruning.

Biology open

Kumamoto K, Iguchi T, Ishida R, Uemura T, Sato M, Hirotsune S.
PMID: 28630356
Biol Open. 2017 Jul 15;6(7):1041-1055. doi: 10.1242/bio.025999.

The robust axonal growth and regenerative capacities of young neurons decrease substantially with age. This developmental downregulation of axonal growth may facilitate axonal pruning and neural circuit formation but limits functional recovery following nerve damage. While external factors influencing...

Atomic structures of a liquid-phase bonded metal/nitride heterointerface.

Scientific reports

Kumamoto A, Shibata N, Nayuki K, Tohei T, Terasaki N, Nagatomo Y, Nagase T, Akiyama K, Kuromitsu Y, Ikuhara Y.
PMID: 26961157
Sci Rep. 2016 Mar 10;6:22936. doi: 10.1038/srep22936.

Liquid-phase bonding is a technologically important method to fabricate high-performance metal/ceramic heterostructures used for power electronic devices. However, the atomic-scale mechanisms of how these two dissimilar crystals specifically bond at the interfaces are still not well understood. Here we...

Septic pulmonary embolism originated from subcutaneous abscess after living donor liver transplantation: a pitfall of postoperative management.

Clinical journal of gastroenterology

Takeda K, Tanaka K, Kumamoto T, Nojiri K, Mori R, Taniguchi K, Matsuyama R, Kato H, Endo I.
PMID: 24273612
Clin J Gastroenterol. 2013 Oct;6(5):378-82. doi: 10.1007/s12328-013-0400-3. Epub 2013 Oct 08.

The use of immunosuppressants after liver transplantation (LT) is associated with postoperative complications, including infections. A 49-year-old male underwent living-donor (LD) LT because of primary sclerosing cholangitis. He was treated with tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil, and steroids as immunosuppressants, discharged...

RÉSUMÉ La législation, dans de nombreuses juridictions, nécessite les établissements des soins de longue durée (SLD) d'avoir une infirmière en service 24 heures par jour, 7 jours par semaine. Bien que la recherche considérable existe sur l'intensité SLD de...

Decreased SIRT1 expression and LKB1 phosphorylation occur with long-term high-fat diet feeding, in addition to AMPK phosphorylation impairment in the early phase.

Obesity research & clinical practice

Yoneda M, Guo Y, Ono H, Nakatsu Y, Zhang J, Cui X, Iwashita M, Kumamoto S, Tsuchiya Y, Sakoda H, Fujishiro M, Kushiyama A, Koketsu Y, Kikuchi T, Kamata H, Nishimura F, Asano T.
