As the elderly increase in the Japanese population, the government, on the one hand, has enacted a series of statutes to provide care for the elderly. Adult Guardian Laws, passed in April 2000, are typical examples of the statutes of this kind. On the other hand, however, the restoration of fiscal balance, the primary objective in the present policy of the Japanese government, causes marked reduction of the budget for elderly care. Perceiving this change of governmental policy, a recent Senryu* verse goes as follows:“Ye elderly, die please-for the sake of thy country”. True to this verse, the elderly will not be able to sustain their lives, if the contemporary fiscal policy is pushed further. One may even say that this policy seeks the demise of Japanese elder generation. How would the government answer this criticism? How should we, the seniors, cope with this present situation? In this paper, I would like to ask this question to my colleagues. *Senryu is a traditional Japanese satirical verse of 17 syllables the genre of which in Edo era.

There have been opposing views on several issues regarding the House Lease Law in recent years. One view is based on the idea that the house lessees are economically disadvantaged people. This idea originates from the miserable life of house lessees in Edo era (referred to as &ldquo;uratanagari&rdquo;). It supports the present legal system which provides legal protections for house lessees. The other view challenges this idea and supports a revision of the present legal system aimed at reducing such legal protections. [Chapter 1]<br>With the societal changes that took place in Meiji era, the standard of living of house lessees improved gradually. Furthermore, the Civil Code of 1896 and House Lease Law of 1921 provided several rules for the protection of house lessees. After the revision of the House Lease Law in 1941, it became practically impossible for the owner of a house to terminate the tenant's lease contract without&ldquo;just cause.&rdquo;With this revised statute, the agreement of the lease period was practically of no legal effect. [Chapter 2]<br>An improvement of economic conditions in the Postwar Period brought about an elevation in the living standard of house lessees. Against this background, a proposal was made to establish tenancy for a specific number of years. The parties to a house lease contract would agree on the number of years of tenancy. This period would be specified in the contract and the lease would terminate upon its expiration. Accordingly, a&ldquo;just cause&rdquo;would not be necessary to terminate the lease. Proponents of this proposal persuaded politicians of the ruling party to back it and succeeded in passing it into law in 1996. [Chapter 3]<br>Under the Japanese Civil Code, the interest of the mortgagee of a real property take priority over that of the lessee if the mortgage is registered before the implementation of the lease contract. There is an exception to this principle in the case of:&ldquo;short-term leases.&rdquo;The lessee of a real property who meets certain requirements (as a short-term lessee) need not vacate the leased property even if the mortgage is foreclosed, the property is auctioned, and the vendee demands the lessee to vacate the leased property. Since a short-term lessee is not always a disadvantaged person, the rationale of legal protection for such a lessee is at issue. As this privilege of the short-term lessee is often abused by gangstars and others and causes a disturbance in real estate financing, many influential scholars support its abolition. Others argue, however, that abolishing this privilege would harm the innocent lessees. They are trying to devise compromising solutions. This argument is still unsettled. [Chapter 4]<br>Finally, large construction firms that plan urban redevelopment projects urge landowners to build high-rise buildings on their land, as an investment. Under this scheme, when the landowner builds a building, he leases it to the construction firm. The construction firm, in turn, subleases rooms of the building to sublessees. The difference between the rent paid and earned becomes the profit of the construction firm. In this case, the construction firm is surely a lessee of the building. Therefore, some scholars support the application of the House Lease Law to this type of lease. It is against the spirit of the House Lease Law to allow legal protections to such a big business, however. Thus, more than a few scholars reject the validity of applying this Law to this type of lease. Many cases involving this issue are now under litigation. [Chapter 5]<br>Underlying these various legal issues are opposing ideas as to whether or not it is appropriate to regard house lessees as economically disadvantaged people and allow them legal protections. Finding a settlement to these opposing ideas is the most difficult problem to solve.

著者らはLactococcus lactis H61の摂取により,春季,冬季におけるヒトの肌の状態の改善(乾燥の抑制等)を報告している。本研究では夏季におけるH61株の当該効果を調べるために,被験食品として,一般的なヨーグルト用たね菌で製造したヨーグルト(標準ヨーグルト),これにH61株を加えて発酵させたヨーグルト(H61ヨーグルト)を用い,二重盲検にて2013年6月上旬からこれらのいずれか85g/日を健康な中高年層の女性(22名:40歳~74歳)に4週間摂取させ,摂取前後及び摂取終了1ヶ月後に,頬及び前腕の水分量,頬の油分量,血管年齢を測定した。ヨーグルト摂取終了後,摂取終了1ヶ月後に肌の状態(17項目),体調(22項目)について自己評価をさせた。その結果,両方のヨーグルト群で,摂取4週間後に頬及び前腕部の水分量,頬の油分量が増加し,ヨーグルト摂取終了1か月後でこれらの値が低下する傾向が見られた。摂取ヨーグルトの違いは肌の機器分析項目,血管年齢に影響を及ぼさなかった。ヨーグルト摂取終了後,終了1ヶ月後の肌の状態,体調のカテゴリーにおける自己評価では,調査時期によらずいずれの項目においても改善度合いに両群で有意な差は認められなかったものの,摂取終了1ヶ月後でH61ヨーグルト群のみで,肌,体調の評価が高くなる傾向が得られた。自己評価の効果の数値化の検討も含め,今後サンプルサイズを大きくし,摂取期間を長くして夏季におけるH61株の効果を検証する必要がある。

We report the effect of acupuncture based on the meridian concept by the writing evaluation test and writing pressure in a patient with writer's cramp. The case was a 32-year-old male, who was right-handed. The patient reported feeling a sense of incongruity while playing slot machine, and also in handwriting in X+6 years. When the department of nerve internal medicine at a local hospital was consulted, the problem was diagnosed as dystonic writer's cramp. We started acupuncture treatment in our clinic from X year. Acupuncture was performed once a week. Multiple epidermis penetrating needles were used to treat skin and muscle shortening on the palm and forearm. Retaining needles were used for scalp acupuncture in the upper limb zone, LI4 and ST11. Consequently, although some involuntary movement persisted 10 weeks after the start of treatment, control of handwriting became possible. Moreover, agitation during the application of writing pressure before acupuncture therapy was improved after acupuncture therapy. The results suggest that acupuncture therapy with the retaining needles and multiple epidermis penetrating needles is beneficial for dystonic writer's cramp.

本論文では、雑音に埋もれた周期信号の周期とパワースペクトルを検出する新しい方法として、クロススペクトルを用いた同期加算の方法を提案し、理論及び実験的検討を加えた。具体的には、本方法は雑音に埋もれた周期信号から、一定の時間遅れを持って2回信号をサンプリングし、この間のクロススペクトルを計算し、これを多数回同期加算するものである。また、本方法は、従来のトリガパルスを用いたパワースペクトル法と異なり、トリガパルスが不要である点にも一つの特徴を有している。理論的考察から、上述の方法で得たクロススペクトルは、周期信号のパワースペクトルに時間差と周波数の積に比例する位相の回転を与えたものと等しいことを導いた。次に、白色雑音に埋もれた2種の正弦波及び白色雑音に埋もれた短い周期のM系列信号から作成した周期雑音信号を対象として、実験的検証を行った。その結果、本方法は、雑音に埋もれた周期信号の周期及びパワースペクトルの精度よい検出に有効であることが分かった。

We report herein on a 61-year-old Japanese man with severe falciparum malaria after visiting African countries. He presented with shock, impaired consciousness, acidosis, renal impairment, jaundice, pulmonary edema and hyperparasitemia (42.7%). We admitted him to our intensive-care unit. He was initially treated with intravenous quinine (4,500mg for 3 days), rectal artesunate (1,200mg for 5days) and aggressive supportive therapy. The sequential treatment was mefloquine on day 7 (1,925mg). The 99% parasite clearance time and ICU stay were 92 hours and 8days, respectively. He was discharged without complications on the 28th day. Severe malaria, especially cerebral malaria, is a highly mortal disease requiring urgent treatment. Intravenous artesunate is now recommended as the treatment of choice for severe malaria by the World Health Organization, but it is unavilable in Japan. We found that our combination treatment had excellent antimalarial activity with rapid efficacy, and was safe and well-tolerated.

We investigated the relationship between viewer comprehension of a TV program and the direction of his or her gaze in a real experimental TV educational program involving 26 elementary schoolchildren. The aim was to observe the correlation between TV program comprehension and entropy of gaze distribution. Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM) are estimated using statistical methods and assumed to represent the distribution of many subjects' gaze. The results indicate that variances in gaze direction tended to be lower for scenes for which the subjects had better comprehension. The tendency was further noticeable after keywords were uttered that were related to the answers of correponding questions. A gaze-model-estimation method and the theretical accuracy are also described in the paper.
