Yes, it’s true! This year the American Pancreatic Association (APA) will celebrate its 50 anniversary and we will again join hands with the Japanese Pancreas Society (JPS), also celebrating 50 years, with a joint meeting in Maui, Hawaii. Based on the record number of abstracts received, this meeting promises to be one of the largest and best ever for the APA with close to 800 attendees from North America, Japan, China, and both western plus eastern Europe. I must admit, I fondly remember my first introduction to APA in the mid-1980s in one of those earlier annual meetings at the Ambassador West in Chicago. We hunkered comfortably inside while the wind blew fiercely off Lake Michigan and happily listened to endless presentations about pancreatic disorders.

  • Genome-Wide Association Studies in the Japanese Population Identify Seven Novel Loci for Type 2 Diabetes
    ARTICLE Received 26 Jun 2015 | Accepted 22 Dec 2015 | Published 28 Jan 2016 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms10531 OPEN Genome-wide association studies in the Japanese population identify seven novel loci for type 2 diabetes Minako Imamura et al.# Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified more than 80 susceptibility loci for type 2 diabetes (T2D), but most of its heritability still remains to be elucidated. In this study, we conducted a meta-analysis of GWAS for T2D in the Japanese population. Combined data from discovery and subsequent validation analyses (23,399 T2D cases and 31,722 controls) identify 7 new loci with genome-wide significance (Po5 Â 10 À 8), rs1116357 near CCDC85A, rs147538848 in FAM60A, rs1575972 near DMRTA1, rs9309245 near ASB3, rs67156297 near ATP8B2, rs7107784 near MIR4686 and rs67839313 near INAFM2. Of these, the association of 4 loci with T2D is replicated in multi-ethnic populations other than Japanese (up to 65,936 T2Ds and 158,030 controls, Po0.007). These results indicate that expansion of single ethnic GWAS is still useful to identify novel susceptibility loci to complex traits not only for ethnicity-specific loci but also for common loci across different ethnicities.

We investigated the association between BMI and clinical outcomes using two Japanese cohorts of severe sepsis (derivation cohort, Chiba University Hospital, n = 614; validation cohort, multicenter cohort, n = 1561). Participants were categorized into the underweight (BMI < 18.5) and non‑underweight (BMI ≥ 18.5) groups. The primary outcome was 28‑day mortality. Univariate analysis of the derivation cohort indicated increased 28‑day mortality 1Department of Emergency and Critical Care Medicine, Chiba University Graduate School of Medicine, 1-8-1 Inohana, Chuo, Chiba 260-8677, Japan. 2Department of General Medicine, Juntendo University, Tokyo, Japan. 3Health Services Research and Development Center, University of Tsukuba, Tsukuba, Japan. 4Department of Traumatology and Acute Critical Medicine, Osaka University Graduate School of Medicine, Osaka, Japan. 5Emergency and Trauma Center, Kameda Medical Center, Kameda, Japan. 6Division of Emergency and Critical Care Medicine, Tohoku University Graduate School of Medicine, Sendai, Japan. 7Division of Traumatology, Research Institute, National Defense Medical College, Tokorozawa, Japan.

Fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) gene fusions occur in 13–17% of intrahepatic CCA. A single-arm, phase II study (NCT02150967) evaluated infigratinib, an ATP-competitive FGFR1–3-selective oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor, in previously- treated advanced CCA with FGFR fusions/rearrangements. Methods: Adult patients with advanced/metastatic CCA with progression on $1 line of systemic therapy received infigratinib 125 mg orally for 21 days of each 28-day cycle until unacceptable toxicity or disease progression.
