In recent years, one of Japan’s policies for controlling increased medical expenses is promoting self-medication. Owing to their influence on the health of young people, energy drinks (a caffeine-containing beverage) have attracted attention. However, only a few surveys have evaluated their use in Japan. Therefore, we conducted a questionnaire survey on university students on self-medication interest and energy drink use trend, involving 180 students aged 18-26 years. The results showed 28.3% of the students were interested in self-medication and 4.4% were knowledgeable on the self-medication tax system. Additionally, 73.9% of them used over-the-counter (OTC) drugs, especially common cold medicines (65.0%). Further, 77.2% of them consumed energy drinks, mainly to stay awake (61.9%), and most frequently from evening to midnight (54.7%). Furthermore, 26.6% of the students had experienced discomfort or poor health when taking energy drinks, with the most common symptoms being “tachycardia” (n=13) and “sleep disorders” (n=12). Pharmacy and drugstore pharmacists could contribute to caffeine overdose prevention by educating the public on the caffeine content of common cold medications and various foods and drinks such as energy drinks. It is desirable for future studies to investigate in depth the usage of caffeine-containing beverages, including energy drinks.

画像診断の分野で,診断の迅速化および医師の診断支援を目的に,健常者と患者の画像データを統計的に比較する手法が考案されてきた。しかし複数の疾患の可能性を比較,検討し,予測するためには,健常者と患者の判別だけでなく,疾患同士の比較,判別が必要である。そこで,脳血流画像の座標点を脳の機能区分に分け,分類に必要な区分を選択し,サポートベクターマシンによるアルツハイマー病とパーキンソン病の分類に取り組んだ。
