Formation of thrombi is a complex biological event involving platelets and coagulation cascades. The both have been well investigated individually. However, the inter-relationship between them is still to be elucidated. The recent progresses in computer technology may allow us to simulate complex biological phenomena in silico. Here we report a novel method to reproduce the complex system of the inter-relationship between platelet and coagulation by combining the previous simulation model of platelet adhesion with the model of coagulation cascade. We have reproduced the biological process of thrombus growth occurring in the mice cremasteric artery induced by endothelial injury by FeCl3 with our newly developed computer simulator.

This study aims to evaluate the academic activities of female neurosurgeons at all branch meetings of the Japan Neurosurgical Society and identify related issues they encountered. The programs of all seven branch meetings of the Japan Neurosurgical Society (Hokkaido, Tohoku, Kanto, Chubu, Kinki, Chugoku/Shikoku, and Kyushu) were used to determine the number of presentations and chairpersons by sex. The covered period was from January 2008 to December 2020, which was available for viewing during the survey. Of note, only the Kinki branch used data from January 2008 to December 2019. The Neurologia Medico-chirurgica (NMC), the journal of the Japan Neurosurgical Society, was also reviewed to identify publication achievements during the same period. In all seven branches, the percentage of presentations given by female physicians increased from 7.9% in 2008 to 9.6% in 2020 (p < 0.05).Conversely, the percentage of female chairpersons in all branch meetings did not change over time and it was significantly lower (1.1%) than that of female presenters (7.9%) for all branch meetings combined in over 13 years (p < 0.01). In the NMC, the number of articles with female physicians as first authors did not increase or decrease over the years. We conclude that efforts to smoothly promote female neurosurgeons as chairpersons and increase the number of female first authors are necessary to facilitate their academic activities.
