In this study, we report that height-controlled vertically etched silicon nano- column arrays （vSNAs） induce strong growth cone-to-substrate coupling and accelerate in vitro neurite development while preserving the essential features of initial neurite formation. Large-scale preparation of vSNAs with flat head morphology enabled the generation of well-controlled topographical stimulation without cellular impalement. A systematic analysis on topography- induced variations on cellular morphology and cytoskeletal dynamics was conducted. In addition, neurite development on the grid-patterned vSNAs exhibited preferential adhesion to the nanostructured region and outgrowth directionality. The arrangement of cytoskeletal proteins and the expression of a focal adhesion complex indicated that a strong coupling existed between the underlying nanocolumns and growth cones. Furthermore, the height-controlled nanocolumn substrates differentially modulated neurite polarization and elongation. Our findings provide an important insight into neuron-nanotopography interactions and their role in cell adhesion and neurite development.

We adjusted confounding factors using the Cox proportional hazards model and the inverse probability weighting （IPW） method. The primary outcome was the mortality of patients within 6 *** A total of 173 patients received urgent endoscopy （ i.e. , ≤ 12 h after admission）, and 101 patients received non-urgent endoscopy （〉 12 h after admission）. The 6-wk mortality rate was 22.5% in the urgent endoscopy group and 29.7% in the non-urgent endoscopy group, and there was no significant difference between the two groups before （P = 0.266） and after IPW （P = 0.639）. The length of hospital stay was statistically different between the urgent group and non-urgent group （P = 0.033）; however, there was no significant difference in the in-hospital mortality rate between the two groups （8.1%vs 7.9%, P = 0.960）. In multivariate analyses, timing of endoscopy was not associated with 6-wk mortality （hazard ratio, 1.297; 95% confdence interval, 0.806-2.089; P = 0.284）.CONCLUSION In cirrhotic patients with acute variceal bleeding, the timing of endoscopy may be independent of short-term mortality.

Apocrine carcinoma is a rare malignant adnexal neoplasm. The differential diagnosis between apocrine carcinoma and cutaneous metastasis is often difficult. Here, we report a case of locally recurrent penile apocrine carcinoma initially diagnosed as metastatic adenocarcinoma of the colon. A 75-year-old man with a history of surgical resection due to sigmoid colon cancer and penile metastasis two years prior to this study presented with a nodule at the left penile base. He underwent a wide local resection of the penile mass under a suggested preoperative diagnosis of extra-mammary Paget＇s disease （EMPD） associated with previous sigmoid colon cancer. However, the previously and currently resected penile masses were identified as primary apocrine carcinoma upon hematoxylin and eosin （H＆E） staining and immunohistochemical staining. Although the incidence is extremely rare, both clinicians and pathologists should be alert to the possibility of synchronous double primary apocrine carcinoma in cancer patients with malignant cutaneous lesions.

AIM： To investigate the usefulness of a new rendezvous technique for placing stents using the Kumpe （KMP） catheter in angulated or twisted biliary strictures. METHODS： The rendezvous technique was performed in patients with a biliary stricture after living donor liver transplantation （LDLT） who required the exchange of percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage catheters for inside stents. The rendezvous technique was performed using a guidewire in 19 patients （guidewire group） and using a KMP catheter in another 19 （KMP catheter group）. We compared the two groups retrospectively. RESULTS： The baseline characteristics did not differ between the groups. The success rate for placing insidestents was 100% in both groups. A KMP catheter was easier to manipulate than a guidewire. The mean pro- cedure time in the KMP catheter group （1012 s, range： 301-2006 s） was shorter than that in the guidewire group （2037 s, range： 251-6758 s, P = 0.022）. The cu- mulative probabilities corresponding to the procedure time of the two groups were significantly different （P = 0.008）. The factors related to procedure time were the rendezvous technique method, the number of inside stents, the operator, and balloon dilation of the stric- ture （P 〈 0.05）. In a multivariate analysis, the rendez- vous technique method was the only significant factor related to procedure time （P = 0.010）. The procedural complications observed included one case of mild acute pancreatitis and one case of acute cholangitis in the guidewire group, and two cases of mild acute pancre- atitis in the KMP catheter group. CONCLUSION： The rendezvous technique involving use of the KIVlp catheter was a fast and safe method for placing inside stents in patients with LDLT biliary stric- ture that represents a viable alternative to the guide- wire rendezvous technique,
