Feasibility and effectiveness of cardiac auscultation training with a cardiology patient simulator for first-year medical students.

BACKGROUND: The effectiveness of cardiac auscultation training with a cardiology patient simulator for medical students is still unclear. Starting such training earlier may help students improve their proficiency. We investigated whether cardiac auscultation training using a simulator for first-year students is feasible and effective. METHODS: A total of 43 first-year medical students (5-12 in each year, 2015-2019) participated in three 1.5-hour extra-curricular classes comprising mini-lectures, facilitated training, two different auscultation tests (the second test closer to clinical setting than the first), and a questionnaire. The test results were compared with those of 556 fourth-year medical students who participated in a compulsory 3-hour cardiac auscultation class in 2016-2019. RESULTS: The accuracy rate of all heart sounds and murmurs was higher in the first-year students than in the fourth-year students in both the first (85.8 vs. 79.4 %, p = 0.001) and second (71.3 vs. 61.2 %, p = 0.02) tests. That of second/third/fourth sounds was also higher in the first-year students than in the fourth-year students in both the first (86.0 vs. 79.7 %, p = 0.01) and second (70.9 vs. 53.9 %, p = 0.002) tests. The accuracy rate of murmurs was higher in the first-year students than in the fourth-year students in the first test (85.5 vs. 78.9 %, p = 0.04), but not in the second test (72.1 vs. 75.7 %, p = 0.58). All the first-year students and 65 % of them agreed that they had received sufficient knowledge and built sufficient skills, respectively. All the first-year students and 93 % of them agreed that they were satisfied with the program, and that the program was suitable for first-year students, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Although training time was different between the two groups and it is possible that only motivated first-year students participated in the program, these results suggest that our cardiac auscultation training is feasible and effective for first-year medical students.

Employment of color Doppler echocardiographic video clips in a cardiac auscultation class with a cardiology patient simulator: discrepancy between students' satisfaction and learning.

BACKGROUND: We have provided fourth-year medical students with a three-hour cardiac auscultation class using a cardiology patient simulator since 2010. The test results of 2010-2012 revealed that as compared with aortic stenosis murmur, students correctly identified murmurs of other valvular diseases less often. We investigated whether employment of color Doppler echocardiographic video clips would improve proficiency in identifying murmurs of aortic regurgitation and mitral regurgitation, and whether students' favorable responses to a questionnaire were associated with improved proficiency. METHODS: A total of 250 fourth-year medical students were divided into groups of 7-9 students in 2014 and 2015. Each group attended a three-hour cardiac auscultation class comprising a mini-lecture, facilitated training, two different auscultation tests (the second test being closer to clinical setting than the first) and a questionnaire. We provided each student with color Doppler echocardiographic videos of aortic regurgitation and mitral regurgitation using a tablet computer, which they freely referred to before and after listening to corresponding murmurs. The test results were compared with those in 2010-2012. The students had already completed the course of cardiovascular medicine, comprising lectures including those of physical examination, echocardiography, and valvular heart diseases, before participating in this auscultation training class. RESULTS: Most students indicated that the videos were useful or somewhat useful regarding aortic regurgitation (86.3%) and mitral regurgitation (85.7%). The accuracy rates were 78.4% (81.2% in 2010-2012) in aortic regurgitation and 76.0% (77.8%) in mitral regurgitation in the first test, and 83.3% (71.4%) in aortic regurgitation and 77.1% (77.6%) in mitral regurgitation in the second test, showing no significant differences as compared to 2010-2012. Overall accuracy rate of all heart sounds and murmurs in the first test and that of second/third/fourth sounds in the first and second tests were significantly lower in 2014-2015 than in 2010-2012. CONCLUSIONS: Referring to color Doppler echocardiographic video clips in the way employed in the present study, which most students regarded as useful, did not improve their proficiency in identifying the two important regurgitant murmurs, revealing a discrepancy between students' satisfaction and learning. Video clips synchronized with their corresponding murmurs may contribute toward improving students' proficiency.

A Medical Record Peer-Review System to Evaluate Residents' Clinical Competence: Criterion Validity Analysis.

In contrast to input evaluation (education delivered at school) and output evaluation (students' capability at graduation), the methods of outcome evaluation (performance after graduation) of medical education have not been sufficiently established. To establish a method to measure the quality of patient care and conduct outcome evaluation, we have been developing a peer review system of medical records. Here, we undertook a pilot study to evaluate the criterion validity of our system by using "evaluation by program directors (supervisors in the hospitals)" as a criterion standard. We selected 13 senior residents from three teaching hospitals. Five reviewers (general internists working in other hospitals) visited the hospitals independently and evaluated five patients' records for each resident based on the previously established sheet comprising 15 items. Independently, program directors of the senior residents evaluated their clinical performance using an evaluation sheet comprising ten items. Pearson's analysis revealed statistically significant correlation coefficients in three pairs of assessments including clinical reasoning (r = 0.5848, P = 0.0358). Bootstrap analysis revealed statistically significant correlation coefficients in additional 5 pairs including history taking (r = 0.509, 95% confidence interval: 0.034-0.847). In contrast, the correlation coefficients were low in some items: r = 0.132 (-0.393-0.639) for physical examination and r = 0.089 (-0.847-0.472) for attitude toward patients. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study, albeit a pilot one, that investigates the criterion validity of medical record evaluations conducted by comparing the assessments of medical records with those by program directors.

Variation in effectiveness of a cardiac auscultation training class with a cardiology patient simulator among heart sounds and murmurs.

BACKGROUND: Effectiveness of simulation-based education in cardiac auscultation training is controversial, and may vary among a variety of heart sounds and murmurs. We investigated whether a single auscultation training class using a cardiology patient simulator for medical students provides competence required for clinical clerkship, and whether students' proficiency after the training differs among heart sounds and murmurs. METHODS: A total of 324 fourth-year medical students (93-117/year for 3 years) were divided into groups of 6-8 students; each group participated in a three-hour training session using a cardiology patient simulator. After a mini-lecture and facilitated training, each student took two different tests. In the first test, they tried to identify three sounds of Category A (non-split, respiratory split, and abnormally wide split S2s) in random order, after being informed that they were from Category A. They then did the same with sounds of Category B (S3, S4, and S3+S4) and Category C (four heart murmurs). In the second test, they tried to identify only one from each of the three categories in random order without any category information. RESULTS: The overall accuracy rate declined from 80.4% in the first test to 62.0% in the second test (p<0.0001). The accuracy rate of all the heart murmurs was similar in the first (81.3%) and second tests (77.5%). That of all the heart sounds (S2/S3/S4) decreased from 79.9% to 54.3% in the second test (p<0.0001). The individual accuracy rate decreased in the second test as compared with the first test in all three S2s, S3, and S3+S4 (p<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: Medical students may be less likely to correctly identify S2/S3/S4 as compared with heart murmurs in a situation close to clinical setting even immediately after training. We may have to consider such a characteristic of students when we provide them with cardiac auscultation training.

Questionnaire-Based Development of an Educational Program of Traditional Japanese Kampo Medicine.

Traditional Japanese Kampo medicine has been widely used in clinical practice in Japan. Though it is a compulsory subject in Japanese medical schools, a standard educational program in Kampo medicine does not exist. Tohoku University has incorporated Kampo medicine into clinical education via didactic lectures since 2003; however, student evaluations have been lower for Kampo than for all other clinical specialties. We administered a questionnaire about a Kampo medicine course for fifth-year students from 2009 to 2012 and developed an educational program based on feedback obtained. The questionnaire consisted of nine questions (a clear training plan; opportunities for learning, practice, and patient contact; acquisition of medical knowledge and physical examination; learning professionalism; understanding the specialty; overall assessment) that were rated on a 5-point Likert scale along with open-ended questions about the course's strengths and weaknesses. The students responded to the questionnaire after clinical practice in Kampo medicine and other clinical specialty courses. Scores for Kampo medicine and the average of other clinical specialties were compared. All 389 students who participated in Kampo clinical practice answered the questionnaire. In 2009, scores for Kampo medicine for nine questions were lower than for the average of the other clinical specialties. After curriculum reformation involving hands-on training in 2012, all scores except "opportunities to learn about clinical cases" and "opportunities to practice involvement" were higher than the average of all other clinical specialties. In conclusion, we have successfully developed a Kampo medicine educational program for our university through this survey study.

Number of papers published in English from the nursing departments of 42 national universities in Japan in the past ten years.

BACKGROUND: In Japan, the departments of nursing were established by 2004, and graduate school programs for master's degree were established by 2008, in 42 national universities. With these changes, a more academic mission has been pursued, and the need for writing papers in English has increased. AIM: To investigate the numbers of papers published in English from the nursing departments of national universities in Japan over the past ten years. METHODS: The lists of teachers who have nursing licenses in the departments of nursing in the 42 national universities (n=2292) were obtained from the Japan Association of Nursing Programs in Universities. The number of papers published in English by these teachers from 2004 to 2013 was counted using the SCOPUS database. RESULTS: The average number of total papers, in which at least one of the authors was a nursing teacher, and first-authored papers, in which the first author was a nursing teacher, were 211.4 and 69.9 per year, respectively; both increased approximately two-fold during the past ten years. The means and standard deviations of the number of total papers and first-authored papers were 50.3±63.8 (range: 1-382) and 18.3±23.4 (range: 0-147) according to universities, and 1.39±5.84 (range: 0-140) and 0.33±1.28 (range: 0-21) according to teachers, respectively. When journals with the highest number of papers were analyzed, 12 of the top 20 (total papers) and 12 of the top 16 (first-authored papers) were in journals whose editorial offices are in Japan. CONCLUSION: The number of papers published in English has increased over the past ten years, varied markedly depending on the universities and teachers, and many papers were published in Japanese journals. To our knowledge, this is the first report anywhere to determine the average number of nursing papers "per teacher" in a specific population.

Development of a peer review system using patient records for outcome evaluation of medical education: reliability analysis.

In addition to input evaluation (education delivered at school) and output evaluation (students' capability at graduation), the methods for outcome evaluation (performance after graduation) of medical education need to be established. One approach is a review of medical records, which, however, has been met with difficulties because of poor inter-rater reliability. Here, we attempted to develop a peer review system of medical records with high inter-rater reliability. We randomly selected 112 patients (and finally selected 110 after removing two ineligible patients) who visited (and were hospitalized in) one of the four general hospitals in the Tohoku region of Japan between 2008 and 2012. Four reviewers, who were well-trained general internists from outside the Tohoku region, visited the hospitals independently and evaluated outpatient medical records based on an evaluation sheet that consisted of 14 items (3-point scale) for record keeping and 15 items (5-point scale) for quality of care. The mean total score was 84.1 ± 7.7. Cronbach's alpha for these items was 0.798. Single measure and average measure intraclass correlations for the reviewers were 0.733 (95% confidence interval: 0.720-0.745) and 0.917 (95% confidence interval: 0.912-0.921), respectively. An exploratory factor analysis revealed six factors: history taking, physical examination, clinical reasoning, management and outcome, rhetoric, and patient relationship. In conclusion, we have developed a peer review system of medical records with high inter-rater reliability, which may enable us, with further validity analysis, to measure quality of patient care as an outcome evaluation of medical education in the future.

Aberrant muscle syndrome: hypertrophy of the hand and arm due to aberrant muscles with or without hypertrophy of the muscles.

Five patients were reported in our congenital anomaly registry who had six hands in total with muscular hyperplasia, aberrant muscles, ulnar drift of the fingers in the metacarpophalangeal (MP) joints, flexion contractures of the MP joints, and enlargement of the metacarpal spaces. Thirty patients with unilateral involvement of this condition have been reported previously. We reviewed these cases and found that the condition varied in severity and that it was reported using different names. However, this condition seems different from true macrodactyly and multiple camptodactyly, including windblown hand, and seems to be an isolated entity of congenital upper limb anomaly. The authors recommend 'aberrant muscle syndrome' or 'accessory muscle syndrome' as a diagnostic name, because this seems to be the most common pathological finding in this condition.

Ethylene/polar monomer copolymerization behavior of bis(phenoxy-imine)Ti complexes: formation of polar monomer copolymers.

Bis(phenoxy-imine) Ti complexes bearing a phenyl group ortho to the phenoxy-O can mediate the copolymerization of ethylene and 5-hexene-1-yl-acetate though they are group 4 transition metal catalysts.

Cytogenetic abnormality 46,XX,add(21)(q11.2) in a patient with follicular dendritic cell sarcoma.

The case of a patient with follicular dendritic cell (FDC) sarcoma with chromosomal aberration add(21)(q11.2) is described. Cytogenetic studies showed the karyotype 46,XX,add(21)(q11.2)[3]/46,XX[17], although the encoded protein involved was not clarified. The abnormal pattern was quite simple, and different from a previous report. The clinical course of the FDC sarcoma in this case has been indolent, as for most FDC sarcoma patients. Although this patient suffered from breast carcinoma 6 years after the onset of FDC sarcoma, the carcinoma showed different histological and phenotypic profiles.

Arthroscopic and open synovectomy of the elbow in rheumatoid arthritis.

BACKGROUND: Synovectomy has been advocated for early treatment of the rheumatoid elbow. It has not been determined whether arthroscopic or open synovectomy is better and whether a preoperative arc of flexion of >90 degrees is an important prognostic factor. METHODS: Arthroscopic or open synovectomy was performed in fifty-eight elbows in fifty-three patients with rheumatoid arthritis and radiographic changes in the joint of Larsen grade 2 or less. Clinical symptoms, recurrent synovitis, postoperative complications, and radiographic changes were assessed ten to eighteen years (average, thirteen years) postoperatively. RESULTS: Eleven (48%) of twenty-three elbows in which arthroscopic synovectomy had been performed and sixteen (70%) of twenty-three elbows in which open synovectomy had been performed were mildly or not painful at the latest follow-up evaluation. However, no significant difference was detected between the overall clinical results of arthroscopic synovectomy and those of open synovectomy. In elbows with a preoperative arc of flexion of <90 degrees , the clinical results of the two procedures were comparable. In elbows with a preoperative arc of flexion of <90 degrees , arthroscopic synovectomy provided significantly (p < 0.05) better function than open surgery after mid-term follow-up, and motion and function continued to be better in those patients at the most recent follow-up evaluation. Recurrent synovitis was observed in six elbows that had arthroscopic synovectomy and in three that had open synovectomy, and the Larsen grade increased in both groups. Three elbows with a preoperative arc of flexion of <90 degrees underwent a total elbow arthroplasty to treat ankylosis after open synovectomy. Surgical complications were uncommon and not severe. CONCLUSIONS: Arthroscopic synovectomy of the elbow is a reliable procedure. One of the most favorable indications for either arthroscopic or open synovectomy is a preoperative arc of elbow flexion of >/=90 degrees in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis.

Augmented subscapularis muscle transposition for rotator cuff repair during shoulder arthroplasty in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

The effectiveness of rotator cuff repair by augmented subscapularis transposition via the Leeds-Keio artificial ligament was evaluated in patients with rheumatoid arthritis undergoing total shoulder arthroplasty. The minimum follow-up period was 2 years. Final clinical scores (Hospital for Special Surgery scoring system) and the incidence of radiolucency and upward migration of shoulder components in 20 shoulders with rotator cuff repair by augmented subscapularis transposition were superior to those of 19 shoulders with cuff repair by subscapularis transposition alone and similar to those of 22 shoulders with intact rotator cuffs. In shoulders with augmented subscapularis transposition and intact cuffs, clinical scores continued to improve even after the first postoperative year. Our augmented subscapularis transposition did not increase postoperative complications. We conclude that cuff repair by augmented subscapularis transposition is an acceptable alternative for repairing a supraspinatus or supraspinatus and infraspinatus rotator cuff defect in rheumatoid arthritis patients undergoing total shoulder arthroplasty.

Volume of a wash and the other conditions for maximum therapeutic effect of arthroscopic lavage in rheumatoid knees.

The objective of this study was to determine the appropriate volume of saline to obtain a beneficial effect of arthroscopic lavage and the prognostic factors related to the clinical effect in a refractory rheumatoid knee. Arthroscopic lavage or arthrocentesis was performed in a random manner in 142 patients with relapsing rheumatoid arthritis. All patients were followed up for 24 months. Intra-articular lavage with 5 l (p < 0.01) or 3 l (p < 0.05) of saline gave better clinical results than did arthrocentesis. There was no significant difference between the cumulative incidence of recurrence of knee synovitis in patients who underwent arthrocentesis and that in patients who underwent lavage with 1 l of saline. Cox regression analysis showed that patients with knee arthritis of more than 6 months in duration and with Larsen grade II or less were more responsive to lavage with 5 or 3 l of saline. The duration of the effect of lavage with 3 l of saline was increased 2.9-fold (p = 0.04) by injection of both steroids and high molecular weight hyaluronan. No bleeding or infectious complications occurred after those procedures. Arthroscopic lavage with 5 l of saline is safe and has good therapeutic effects for rheumatoid knees with mild destruction in which arthritis has persisted for more than 6 months. Lavage with 3 l of saline is recommended when intra-articular injection of corticosteroid and high molecular weight hyaluronan is performed after lavage.

Successful treatment of intraoperative heart failure caused by ampulla cardiomyopathy by intra-aortic balloon pumping and percutaneous cardiopulmonary support: report of a case.

An 82-year-old woman underwent total gastrectomy for advanced gastric cancer with invasion to the lower esophagus. Her blood pressure dropped alarmingly during the operation, which was performed via the transabdominal and left-side transthoracic approach. Using echocardiography, we diagnosed intraoperative-onset reversible heart failure caused by ampulla cardiomyopathy. Because the infusion of catecholamines is associated with secondary heart failure, we gave her calcium antagonists and nicorandil, then started intra-aortic balloon pumping (IABP) and the percutaneous cardiopulmonary support system (PCPS). On postoperative day (POD) 7, the IABP and PCPS were removed and on POD 12, she was extubated successfully. The patient was discharged on POD 54 and has remained well. The factors predisposing her to ampulla cardiomyopathy were left-side thoracotomy, hypoxia caused by one-lung ventilation, and the infusion of high-dose catecholamines. Prompt diagnosis and timely treatment of the heart failure with IABP and PCPS prevented any further complications.

Heel cord advancement combined with Vulpius' lengthening of the gastrocnemius.

The results of Achilles tendon lengthening to treat spastic pes equinus deformity are less than satisfactory, with high recurrence rates. To improve the outcome, heel cord advancement can be done. In the current study, the patients with severe contracture of the Achilles tendon were treated by heel cord advancement. Additional lengthening of the gastrocnemius muscle using the Vulpius technique was done to reattach the Achilles tendon to the calcaneus. Seventeen patients (20 feet) with spastic pes equinus deformities were treated with this technique, and satisfactory midterm postoperative results were obtained. The mean age of the patients at surgery was 10 years, and the mean duration of followup after surgery was 8 years. The mean tibioplantar angle decreased postoperatively, and there were no recurrences of pes equinus deformity and no appearance of pes calcaneus deformity. Walking ability improved in two patients and did not deteriorate in any of the patients. Seven of the patients were able to stand on only the affected foot after the operation. Our technique provides good correction of an equinus deformity with no recurrence, and with improvement of the physical activity level.

Debridement arthroplasty for primary osteoarthritis of the elbow. Surgical technique.

BACKGROUND: Formal and more aggressive debridement procedures have been described for the treatment of advanced primary osteoarthritis of the elbow. However, the literature contains little information on the results of long-term follow-up. The purpose of this study was to evaluate outcomes at an average of ten years after debridement arthroplasties performed through a posteromedial approach. METHODS: Thirty-three elbows with primary osteoarthritis in thirty-two patients treated with debridement arthroplasty were available for clinical follow-up evaluation. Through a posteromedial approach, the flexor-pronator muscle origin was reflected from the medial epicondyle and the joint was opened, preserving the anterior oblique bundle of the medial collateral ligament. The ulnar nerve was decompressed in all patients. Osteophytes were removed from the anterior, medial, and posterior sides of the elbow joint. In nine elbows, osteophytes from the lateral compartment were removed through an additional lateral approach. The mean age at the time of the operation was fifty years. The mean duration of follow-up was 121 months, and nineteen elbows were followed for more than ten years. RESULTS: The mean preoperative limitation of extension of 31 degrees was reduced to 24 degrees , and the mean preoperative flexion of 101 degrees improved to 118 degrees (p < 0.001). The mean arc of movement improved by 24 degrees . The mean Japanese Orthopaedic Association elbow score was 83 points at the latest follow-up evaluation compared with 60 points preoperatively (p < 0.001). Of twenty-five patients who had performed heavy manual work, nineteen (76%) returned to their previous job or an equivalent job. At the latest examination of the nineteen elbows followed for more than ten years, the limitation of extension was found to have increased by 7 degrees compared with the limitation noted at one year (p < 0.009); the mean arc of flexion had remained the same. Three elbows required a reoperation. Overall, 85% of the elbows were satisfactory to the patients. CONCLUSIONS: Debridement arthroplasty through a posteromedial approach can provide stable and reliable long-term results with regard to relief of pain, gains in range of motion, and the patient's ability to return to his or her previous occupation. In our series, a modest loss of extension was observed at ten years, whereas the arc of flexion remained consistent.

Labral shape after arthroscopic Bankart repair: comparisons between the anchor and Caspari methods.

PURPOSE: Morphological changes after repair of the glenoid labrum were examined using fresh cadavers and clinical cases to compare the anchor and Caspari methods. TYPE OF STUDY: Cadaveric and case series. METHODS: The depth of the glenoid concavity after Bankart repair was measured in 4 shoulders from 2 fresh cadavers. We made positive models of the glenoid cavity with gypsum and measured the distance from the lateral-most extent of the anterior labrum to the medial extent of the glenoid cavity. We also compared the depth of glenoid concavity in clinical cases between the anchor and Caspari methods using air computed tomography arthrography and magnetic resonance imaging. RESULTS: We determined the effective depth as the distance from the lateral-most extent of the anterior labrum to the medial extent of the glenoid cavity. The effective depth in fresh cadaver experiments after the anchor method showed substantial differences at the superior and middle levels of the glenoid labrum compared with the Caspari method. Mean effective depths in clinical cases were 5.8 mm (range, 4.2 to 6.8 mm) after the anchor method and 3.5 mm (range, 2.0 to 5.0 mm) after the Caspari method. Effective depth following the anchor method was significantly greater than that of the Caspari method. CONCLUSIONS: During repair of Bankart lesions for traumatic anterior instability of the shoulder, effective depth was higher following use of the anchor method than with the Caspari method. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Understanding the shape of the anterior labrum and glenoid concavity after use of the anchor and Caspari methods may help to improve the surgical technique and clinical results of arthroscopic Bankart repair.

Synovial membrane enhancement and bone erosion by magnetic resonance imaging for prediction of radiologic progression in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine the prognostic factors related to radiographic progression in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) (less than 1 year after onset) undergoing enhanced MRI at entry. METHODS: Demographic characteristics, disease duration, and enhanced MRI of the dominant wrists were recorded at entry. Duration of morning stiffness, number of swollen joints, serum rheumatoid factor (RF), erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein (CRP) level, and radiographs of hands and feet (Sharp/van der Heijde score) were assessed at each follow-up. Outcome was defined as damage seen on radiography. RESULTS: One hundred fourteen patients were followed up for 10 years. Logistic regression analysis showed that high MRI score, CRP, and RF positivity were associated with radiologic progression. The MRI score at baseline was a better predictor than CRP level and RF positivity at entry. CONCLUSION: The assessment of synovial membrane enhancement and bone erosion by MRI of the wrist in early RA is very helpful to predict erosive outcome.

Outcomes after pylorus-preserving gastrectomy for early gastric cancer: a prospective multicenter trial.

The aim of the present study was to compare in a prospective, multicenter trial the results early and late after pylorus-preserving gastrectomy (PPG) versus conventional distal gastrectomy (CDG) with Billroth I anastomosis for early gastric cancer. Eighty-one patients with early gastric cancer were randomized and then underwent either PPG or CDG. Duration of operation, intraoperative blood loss, days until removal of the nasogastric tube, days until start of oral intake, and decrease in body weight were studied as parameters for outcomes early after the surgery. Late results were studied in patients followed for longer than 3 years. Change in body weight, status of oral intake, symptoms suggesting early dumping syndrome, and overall satisfaction were addressed in the questionnaire. The presence of gallstones was examined with ultrasonography. There were no differences in early results between PPG and CDG. The incidence of early dumping syndrome was lower in PPG (8%) than in CDG (33%). Other late results including the incidence of gallstones were not different between the 2 groups. These results indicate that PPG is as safe as CDG and has an advantage in terms of early dumping syndrome.
