Journal ArticleDOI
A New Candidate Supporting Drug, Rikkunshito, for the QOL in Advanced Esophageal Cancer Patients with Chemotherapy Using Docetaxel/5-FU/CDDP
Junichi Seike,Toru Sawada,Naoya Kawakita,Yota Yamamoto,Yasuhiro Yuasa,Hiromichi Yamai,Hirokazu Takachi,Takahiro Yoshida,Akira Tangoku +8 more
TL;DR: The efficacy of rikkunshito (TJ-43) on CINV is investigated and TJ-43 administration in patients undergoing DFP chemotherapy is recommended to reduce the incidence of symptoms and the nausea score was significantly lower than that of the control group.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transbronchial Biopsy Using an Ultrathin Bronchoscope Guided by Cone-Beam Computed Tomography and Virtual Bronchoscopic Navigation in the Diagnosis of Pulmonary Nodules.

TL;DR: Transbronchial biopsy using an ultrathin bronchoscope guided by CBCT and VBN showed a very high yield in the diagnosis of pulmonary nodules.
Journal ArticleDOI
DNA methylation of GHSR, GNG4, HOXD9 and SALL3 is a common epigenetic alteration in thymic carcinoma.
R. Kishibuchi,Kazuya Kondo,S. Soejima,Mitsuhiro Tsuboi,Koichiro Kajiura,Yukikiyo Kawakami,Naoya Kawakita,Toru Sawada,Hiroaki Toba,Mitsuteru Yoshida,Hiromitsu Takizawa,Akira Tangoku +11 more
TL;DR: The findings of this study indicated that the promoter methylation of cancer‑related genes was significantly higher in thymic carcinoma than inThymoma and the thymus, and may be involved in the carcinogenesis of thymi carcinoma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Indocyanine green fluorescence imaging for resection of pulmonary metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma.
Naoya Kawakita,Hiromitsu Takizawa,Toru Sawada,Daisuke Matsumoto,Mitsuhiro Tsuboi,Hiroaki Toba,Mitsuteru Yoshida,Yukikiyo Kawakami,Kazuya Kondo,Akira Tangoku +9 more
TL;DR: In patients with pulmonary metastasis of HCC, ICG fluorescence imaging is useful for identifying the tumor and securing its margin when the lesion is peripheral and wedge resection is planned.
Journal ArticleDOI
Frequent silencing of RASSF1A by DNA methylation in thymic neuroendocrine tumours.
Koichiro Kajiura,Hiromitsu Takizawa,Yuki Morimoto,Kiyoshi Masuda,Mitsuhiro Tsuboi,R. Kishibuchi,Nuliamina Wusiman,Toru Sawada,Naoya Kawakita,Hiroaki Toba,Mitsuteru Yoshida,Yukikiyo Kawakami,Takuya Naruto,Issei Imoto,Akira Tangoku,Kazuya Kondo +15 more
TL;DR: This is the first report of RASSF1A hypermethylation in TETs, a tumour suppressor gene epigenetically dysregulated in NET, and may represent an epigenetic therapeutic target in thymic NET.
