PMID: 27278482
J Med Ultrason (2001). 2007 Dec;34(4):197-200. doi: 10.1007/s10396-007-0148-9. Epub 2007 Dec 14.

Quadricuspid aortic valve (QAV) is a rare congenital heart valve disease, and more than half of QAV patients have severe aortic regurgitation (AR). We describe the case of a 66-year-old woman with QAV detected by transthoracic echocardiography during a...

Beta-Adrenergic Blockade Therapy for Autonomic Dysfunction is Less Effective for Elderly Patients with Heart Failure and Reduced Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction.

Japanese clinical medicine

Shimamoto K, Kawana M.
PMID: 26483614
Jpn Clin Med. 2015 Oct 11;6:21-7. doi: 10.4137/JCM.S30488. eCollection 2015.

OBJECTIVE: Heart rate variability (HRV) has been reported to be an independent predictor of all-cause and sudden cardiac death in patients with heart failure. In the aging heart, however, both autonomic and cardiac functions appear to be altered. We...

Quality Improvement of Dual-Energy Lung Perfusion Image by Reduction of Low-Energy X-Ray Spectrum: An Evaluation on Clinical Images.

Polish journal of radiology

Kawai T, Ozawa Y, Ogawa M, Ohashi K, Suzuki K, Shibamoto Y.
PMID: 27994698
Pol J Radiol. 2016 Dec 10;81:593-597. doi: 10.12659/PJR.899502. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: The effects of the reduction of low-energy X-ray spectrum on lung perfusion images created by dual-energy CT have not been well evaluated. The aim of this study is to investigate the reliability of lung perfusion blood volume (PBV)...

Time-resolved Magnetic Resonance Angiography for assessment of recanalization after coil embolization of visceral artery aneurysms.

Polish journal of radiology

Kurosaka K, Kawai T, Shimohira M, Hashizume T, Ohta K, Suzuki Y, Shibamoto Y.
PMID: 23493525
Pol J Radiol. 2013 Jan;78(1):64-8. doi: 10.12659/PJR.883769.

BACKGROUND: Follow-up imaging after coil embolization of visceral artery aneurysms is important for detecting recanalization. However, CT examination is susceptible to coil artifacts, which sometimes makes it difficult to assess recanalization. We report 2 cases where recanalization was successfully...

Plant regeneration from protoplasts of indica rice: genotypic differences in culture response.

TAG. Theoretical and applied genetics. Theoretische und angewandte Genetik

Kyozuka J, Otoo E, Shimamoto K.
PMID: 24232400
Theor Appl Genet. 1988 Dec;76(6):887-90. doi: 10.1007/BF00273677.

Fourteen varieties of indica rice (Oryza saliva L.) were examined for their capacity for plant regeneration from protoplasts using the nurse culture methods developed for japonica rice. Calli induced from germinating seeds were grouped into two types: type I,...

Structural changes in the plastid DNA of rice (Oryza sativa L.) during tissue culture.

TAG. Theoretical and applied genetics. Theoretische und angewandte Genetik

Kawata M, Ohmiya A, Shimamoto Y, Oono K, Takaiwa F.
PMID: 24173926
Theor Appl Genet. 1995 Mar;90(3):364-71. doi: 10.1007/BF00221978.

To investigate the rearrangement of the plastid genome during tissue culture, DNA from rice callus lines, which had been derived individually from single protoplasts isolated from seed or pollen callus (protoclones), was analyzed by Southern hybridization with rice chloroplast...

Stent Placement for Acute Superior Mesenteric Artery Occlusion Associated with Type B Aortic Dissection.

Case reports in vascular medicine

Suzuki K, Shimohira M, Hashizume T, Shibamoto Y.
PMID: 26101689
Case Rep Vasc Med. 2015;2015:485141. doi: 10.1155/2015/485141. Epub 2015 May 25.

A 50-year-old man had a mesenteric ischemia related to superior mesenteric artery (SMA) occlusion associated with a type B aortic dissection. We decided to perform stent placement for the SMA and could avoid mesenteric ischemia. We think the stent...

Macrophage ubiquitin-specific protease 2 modifies insulin sensitivity in obese mice.

Biochemistry and biophysics reports

Saito N, Kimura S, Miyamoto T, Fukushima S, Amagasa M, Shimamoto Y, Nishioka C, Okamoto S, Toda C, Washio K, Asano A, Miyoshi I, Takahashi E, Kitamura H.
PMID: 28956020
Biochem Biophys Rep. 2017 Jan 26;9:322-329. doi: 10.1016/j.bbrep.2017.01.009. eCollection 2017 Mar.

We previously reported that ubiquitin-specific protease (USP) 2 in macrophages down-regulates genes associated with metabolic diseases, suggesting a putative anti-diabetic role for USP2 in macrophages. In this study, we evaluate this role at both cellular and individual levels. Isolated...

Prediction of background parenchymal enhancement on breast MRI using mammography, ultrasonography, and diffusion-weighted imaging.

Nagoya journal of medical science

Kawamura A, Satake H, Ishigaki S, Ikeda M, Kimura R, Shimamoto K, Naganawa S.
PMID: 26412889
Nagoya J Med Sci. 2015 Aug;77(3):425-37.

This retrospective study assessed the effects of menopausal status and menstrual cycle on background parenchymal enhancement (BPE) of breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and investigated whether the degree of BPE can be predicted by findings of mammography, ultrasonography (US),...

PMID: 24240226
Theor Appl Genet. 1987 Sep;74(5):670-6. doi: 10.1007/BF00288869.

Protoplast-derived rice plants of four Japanese cultivars, Nipponbare, Fujisaka 5, Norin 14 and Iwaimochi were individually cultivated in a submerged paddy field. They exhibited more stems, which resulted in more panicles than respective control plants. Other characteristics of protoplast-derived...
