The Japanese otter (Lutra nippon), once inhabited in most islands of Japan, is now considered as an extinct species. Although the Japanese otter is regarded as a distinct species from the Eurasian otter (L. lutra), its phylogeny and taxonomic status are based on limited information on morphological and genetic data, and thus further clarification is required. Here, we assessed the phylogenetic relationship among the genus Lutra and taxonomic status of L. nippon by using the complete sequences of cytochrome b gene of its holotype. The present phylogenic trees supported that the genus Lutra specimens largely formed monophyletic group, with L. sumatrana as a basal to other Lutra species. Within Lutra species, L. nippon was distantly related with L. lutra. The European otter population of L. l. lutra were clustered together with its subspecies, L. l. chinensis rather than the same subspecies, Korean otter population. The discrepancy between the genetic data and traditional taxonomy justifies the necessity of reexamination of the current subspecific classification system of Eurasian otters. Level of genetic divergence between the holotype of L. nippon and L. lutra was two to three-fold lower than those among the other sister species of the Lutrinae. Based on the level of divergence between the L. nippon and L. lutra, and insufficient evidence of morphological difference between them, it is suggested that designation of Japanese otter as a separate species from L. lutra will be reconsidered.

Objective: The efficacy of intra-abdominal cytoreductive surgery in patients with endometrial cancer and distant metastasis is equivocal. We investigated the effectiveness of such surgical treatment and whether it should be performed before or after chemotherapy (CT). Methods: This study included patients with an International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage IVB endometrial cancer who received initial treatment at our hospital between January 2006 and December 2017. Results: We retrospectively reviewed 67 patients with stage IVB endometrial cancer with distant metastases and classified them into preceding surgery (PS, n=23), chemotherapy followed by a surgery (CS, n=27), and CT (n=17) groups. We examined the achievement of resection with [R (1)] or without [R (0)] intra-abdominal macroscopic residue and survival. The median survival time for R (0) was 44 (95% confidence interval [CI]=9–not available [NA]) months in the PS group and 27 (95% CI=11–NA) months in the CS group. The median survival time for R (1) was 9 (95% CI=0–24) months in the PS group and 12 (95% CI=7–19) months in the CS group. The similar prognosis in both groups was worse with R (1) than with R (0). The survival curve for R (1) in the resection groups was similar to that of the CT group. Conclusion: Achieving resection without intra-abdominal macroscopic residue for endometrial cancer with distant metastases, whether before or after CT, could extend patients’ survival.

The tiger population that once inhabited the Korean peninsula was initially considered a unique subspecies (Panthera tigris coreensis), distinct from the Amur tiger of the Russian Far East (P. t. altaica). However, in the following decades, the population of P. t. coreensis was classified as P. t. altaica and hence forth the two populations have been considered the same subspecies. From an ecological point of view, the classification of the Korean tiger population as P. t. altaica is a plausible conclusion. Historically, there were no major dispersal barriers between the Korean peninsula and the habitat of Amur tigers in Far Eastern Russia and northeastern China that might prevent gene flow, especially for a large carnivore with long-distance dispersal abilities. However, there has yet to be a genetic study to confirm the subspecific status of the Korean tiger. Bone samples from four tigers originally caught in the Korean peninsula were collected from two museums in Japan and the United States. Eight mitochondrial gene fragments were sequenced and compared to previously published tiger subspecies' mtDNA sequences to assess the phylogenetic relationship of the Korean tiger. Three individuals shared an identical haplotype with the Amur tigers. One specimen grouped with Malayan tigers, perhaps due to misidentification or mislabeling of the sample. Our results support the conclusion that the Korean tiger should be classified as P. t. altaica, which has important implications for the conservation and reintroduction of Korean tigers.
