Objective: Most large-vessel occlusions (LVOs) amenable to acute recanalization occur in the internal carotid or middle cerebral artery. However, few LVOs with a multivessel disease can be difficult to treat. This study aimed to determine the outcomes of mechanical thrombectomy in patients with both anterior and middle cerebral artery occlusions.Methods: We retrospectively collected data for patients who had undergone mechanical thrombectomy since January 2016 at Fukushima Medical University and its affiliated institutions (10 institutions). Patients with occluded vessels in the anterior and middle cerebral arteries were selected, and patient background, treatment course, and outcomes were reviewed.Results: A total of 341 mechanical thrombectomies were performed during the study period. Seven patients had occlusions involving both anterior and middle cerebral arteries. In these seven patients, the median time from onset to imaging, imaging to puncture, and puncture to recanalization was 106, 60, and 74 min, respectively. Only one patient (14%) had a modified Rankin Scale of 0–2 at 90 days.Conclusion: Comorbid anterior cerebral artery occlusion may worsen the outcome of patients with middle cerebral artery occlusion.

Purple sweet potatoes are rich in the purple pigment anthocyanin. In recent years, it has been reported that the anthocyanin content of the same variety varies depending on the place of production. Therefore, to investigate the effect of soil temperature on the anthocyanin content of sweet potato tuberous roots, two types of covering materials, black and white mulch films, were used in the same field. The vines were planted in May, June and July; the cultivation period was set to 120–180 days and tuberous roots were harvested in September, October and November. The average soil temperature ranged from 22.9 to 26.5°C, with the white mulch having lower soil temperatures than the black mulch. The tuberous root yield increased with longer cultivation periods; the tuberous root yield in the May–November plot with a 180-day cultivation period was about twice that of the June–October and July–November plots with a 120-day cultivation period. The anthocyanin content of the tuberous root was negatively correlated with the average soil temperature; the test plots harvested in November had a higher anthocyanin content than the other test plots. In particular, the anthocyanin content of sweet potato cultivated in white mulch in July–November was about twice that cultivated in May–September. Although the factors that increase the tuberous root yield (prolonged cultivation period) are different from those that increase the anthocyanin content (lower temperature range), the tuberous root yield showed a larger effect on the total anthocyanin yield. Since the cultivation period needs to be prolonged to increase tuberous root yield, it would consequently increase the anthocyanin yield. The quality of the harvest was better under lower soil temperature as it led to an increase in the anthocyanin yield. Therefore, it was suggested that anthocyanin yields could be maximized by extending the growing season and harvesting at lower soil temperatures.

Despite increasing demand for sweet potato foliage, which is rich in functional components, efficient methods to maximize yield are still needed. In this study, cultivation tests for sweet potato (line Kyukei05303-3) were conducted over three consecutive years at a greenhouse to characterize seasonal changes in the foliage yield (leaves and stem-petioles), as well as the polyphenol content. The sweet potato foliage was harvested from May to November every week, and the average leaf yield was 855.3 g·m−2·year−1 on a dry weight (DW) basis. The yield and polyphenol content of the leaves were negatively correlated. The yield increased from spring to summer but decreased after mid-August. In contrast, the polyphenol content was highest in May, lower during the summer (June to August), and increased again after September. The average polyphenol content in the leaves was 6.9 g·100 g−1 DW and the total annual polyphenol yield was 59.0 g·m−2. The major component of polyphenols was caffeoylquinic acids. The seasonal changes in caffeoylquinic acids were highly correlated with the changes in total polyphenols. The polyphenol content was significantly correlated with air temperature, but not with sunshine duration, suggesting that air temperature is an important determinant of the polyphenol content during cultivation. These results provide a basis for the rapid cultivation of sweet potato for foliage production.

We investigated the effect of fruit bagging treatment using three kinds of paper bags differing in light permeability on the red coloration of skin, flesh, and core in type 2 red-fleshed ‘Kurenainoyume’ apples by comparison with type 1 ‘Goshogawara’ apples. Skin coloration of both ‘Goshogawara’ and ‘Kurenainoyume’ was affected by light and the effect was more marked in ‘Kurenainoyume’ than ‘Goshogawara’. In contrast, the effect of fruit bagging treatment on the red coloration of the core was limited in ‘Goshogawara’, while core coloration was not observed in ‘Kurenainoyume’ type 2 apples. Flesh coloration was observed even under dark conditions in both cultivars, and the light tended to enhance the flesh coloration to some extent in both cultivars. Since fruit bagging treatment is a prerequisite for ‘Kurenainoyume’ to prevent cork spot-like physiological disorder (CSPD) in the skin, we optimized the fruit bagging treatment conditions using a light impermeable double-layered paper bag (2-layer bag), considering both prevention of CSPD and the red coloration of ‘Kurenainoyume’ skin and flesh. Bag-removal at 25, 35, and 45 days before harvest (DBH), resulted in good skin and flesh coloration without CSPD incidence. Moreover, there was no significant difference in fresh weight, soluble solid, or malic acid contents compared with the non-bagging control. Therefore, we recommend bag-removal from 25 to 45 DBH for ‘Kurenainoyume’ as a practical cultivation technique.

‘Kurenainoyume’ is a new red-fleshed apple cultivar with a gradually increasing cultivation area. However, cork spot-like physiological disorder (CSPD) of the apple skin has become a serious problem over the years. Therefore, the development of strategies to reduce and prevent CSPD is strongly desired by farmers. To this end, we investigated the effectiveness of i) spraying calcium (Ca), boron (B), or both on the tree and ii) pre-harvest fruit bagging. Ca or B solutions or both did not decrease CSPD incidence. Furthermore, no relationship was detected between CSPD and the Ca/B content of fruit and leaves, demonstrating that the occurrence of CSPD might not be due to a deficiency in these elements. Pre-harvest fruit bagging reduced the development of CSPD depending on the light permeability of the paper bags used. Moreover, CSPD development was positively correlated with sunshine duration. Therefore, to prevent CSPD, fruit should be covered with light-impermeable paper bags at least from mid-July to late-September because the fruit covered for a shorter period developed CSPD. Thus, we propose that pre-harvest fruit bagging with light impermeable paper could be a useful and practical strategy to reduce or prevent CSPD in ‘Kurenainoyume’.
