In order to study unsteady flowfield around high speed trains passing by each other, a three-dimensional inviscid numerical method based on three types of domain decomposition techniques is developed. Roe’s FDS scheme is used for the space discretization, and LU-SGS method is adopted for the time integration. After validation of the code to a single track train/tunnel interaction problems with three dimensional tunnel configuration, the numerical simulations of the trains passing by on the double-track are performed for the 5 different cases using 3 basic parameters; e.g. nose shape, existence of tunnel, and train length. After the parametric study, variational parametric studies are carried out to understand the effects of the velocity of the train, the gap between the train and the blockage ratio. Firstly, train/tunnel interaction problems for double track railway system are investigated and aerodynamics loads histories during the crossing events—train/train interaction problem—are presented and discussed.

Use of BMI as a surrogate for body fat percentage is debatable and universal BMI cut-off points do not seem appropriate; lower cut-off points than currently recommended by WHO should be used in some populations, especially in Asia. The adult WHO BMI database indicates that, on average, women are more obese than men, while men are more likely to be pre-obese than women. Urban rates of overweight and obesity are generally higher than rural rates in both sexes. The trend in pre-obesity and obesity over time is generally upward, with very marked increases in the USA and UK in both sexes over the last 10 years.

A 64-year-old neurologically asymptomatic woman with rheumatoid arthritis who was treated with the tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α antagonist adalimumab developed disseminated tuberculosis (TB). After receiving anti-TB therapy and discontinuing adalimumab, she exhibited paradoxical worsening due to immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) with the appearance of meningitis and brain tuberculomas. This case indicates that continuing anti-TNF therapy may be necessary to prevent IRIS in patients who develop TB, particularly disseminated TB, during the course of anti-TNF therapy. In addition, careful screening for central nervous system (CNS) TB should be performed prior to the initiation of therapy, as even neurologically asymptomatic patients can develop CNS manifestations of IRIS.

This paper presents new paleomagnetic results from 24 independent cooling units in Tequila area (western Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt). These units were recently dated by means of state-of-the-art <SUP>40</SUP>Ar-<SUP>39</SUP>Ar method (Lewis-Kenedy <I>et al</I>., 2005) and span from 1130 to 150 ka. The characteristic paleodirections are successfully isolated for 20 cooling units. The mean paleodirection, discarding intermediate polarity sites, is <I>I</I> = 29.6&deg;, <I>D</I> = 359.2&deg;, <I>k</I> = 26, &alpha;<SUB>95</SUB> = 7.1&deg;, <I>n</I> = 17, which corresponds to the mean paleomagnetic pole position <I>P</I><SUB>lat</SUB> = 85.8&deg;, <I>P</I><SUB>long</SUB> = 84.3&deg;, <I>K</I> = 27.5, <I>A</I><SUB>95</SUB> = 6.9&deg;. These directions are practically undistinguishable from the expected Plestocene paleodirections, as derived from reference poles for the North American polar wander curve and in agreement with previously reported directions from western Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt. This suggests that no major tectonic deformation occurred in studied area since early-middle Plestocene to present. The paleosecular variation is estimated trough the study of the scatter of virtual geomagnetic poles giving <I>S<SUB>F</SUB></I> = 15.4 with <I>S<SUB>U</SUB></I> = 19.9 and <I>S<SUB>L</SUB></I> = 12.5 (upper and lower limits respectively). These values are consistent with those predicted by the latitude-dependent variation model of McFadden et al. (1991) for the last 5 Myr. The interesting feature of the paleomagnetic record obtained here is the occurrence of an intermediate polarity at 671&plusmn;13 ka which may correspond the worldwide observed Delta excursion at about 680-690 ka. This gives the volcanic evidence of this event. Two independent lava flows dated as 362&plusmn;13 and 354&plusmn;5 ka respectively, yield transitional paleodirections as well, probably corresponding to the Levantine excursion.

Aim: The objective was to compare the rate of atrial fibrillation (AF) onset in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) compared to controls.Methods: Using a large number of samples extracted from nationwide cohort data in Taiwan, the authors used a propensity-matching procedure and multivariable Cox models to assess the risk of AF by CHD.Results: A cohort of 19,439 CHD patients and a propensity-matched cohort of 19,439 control patients were included in this study. The cumulative incidence of AF was significantly higher in the CHD cohort than in the non-CHD cohort (p<0.001). After controlling for confounding factors, the adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) of AF was 4.23 (95% confidence interval [CI] 3.31–5.41) in the CHD cohort, compared to the non-CHD cohort.Conclusions: A significant association between CHD and AF risk was found.

The photofluoloscopic examination is widely used in Japan for mass screening of lung cancer. But efficacy of mass screening used this method is not sufficient for improve the survival rate of the screened population. So, recently new radiological modalities are proposed for improve the efficacy of mass screening. We tried to evaluate the effectiveness of some of these new modalities, Computed Tomography (CT) and Computed Radiography with energy subtraction method (CR-ES). We used these two new modalities to the outpatients of our department who were detected by mass screening for lung cancer in Niigata City. In the first place, we compared CT with conventional radiography (CONV). These two examinations were done to the 342 outpatients at the same day in the last four years, and 334 abnormal lesions were found out by CT. Among these lesions checked by CT, 234 lesions (70 %) were detected by CONV. As a result, we concluded that if using CT for mass screening, the detectability of abnormal lesions will be improved at least 30 % than now. Next, we compared CR-ES with CONV. These two examinations and CT were done to the 36 outpatients in a last half year, and 43 abnormal lesions were detected by CT. Thirty-one of these 43 lesions (72 %) were detected by CR-ES, and twenty-six (60 %) by CONV. So, we concluded that if using CR-ES for mass screening, the detectability will be improved about 10 % than now.

Even when customers are satisfied, they could be having experiences not intended by the company. By comparing dyad relationships between headquarters and stores of a Japanese auto dealer company, this paper examines how decision authority on touchpoints should be distributed to create a superior customer experience. Overall, decision authority was distributed towards stores; however, two stores known for high-quality customer experiences had headquarters exercise decision authority on brand promotion touchpoints. Further, these two stores adapted interpersonal touchpoints to brand promotion touchpoints created by headquarters. In short, from a brand perspective, it is desirable to differentiate decision authority while achieving consistency between touchpoints.

The characteristics of the volatiles from 43 ‘Fuji’ apples representing 14 different apple production regions in China were investigated using headspace-solid phase micro-extraction (HS-SPME) combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The results obtained from this experiment showed that sixty-four volatile compounds were identified in ‘Fuji’ apples collected from 43 counties in China. The major volatile compounds were identified as 2-methyl butyl acetate and hexyl acetate. The composition of volatiles and their contents in ‘Fuji’ apples varied in different regions. All of the ‘Fuji’ apple samples could be classified into the following groups using a principal component analysis of the volatiles: (1) apples with high concentrations of hexyl acetate and (Z)-3-hexenyl acetate, which were collected in Shandong (Qixia, Wendeng, Penglai, Zhaoyuan, Jiaonan and Yishui), Shanxi (Wanrong, Ruicheng and Linyi), and Gansu Ninglang, (2) apples with high contents of 2-methyl butyl acetate and 1-hexanol, which mainly came from North Shaanxi, Henan Sanmenxia, Liaoning Wafangdian and Liaoning Suizhong, (3) apples with high contents of hexyl butanoate, butyl acetate and hexyl 2-methyl butyrate, which were mainly collected in Gansu (excluding Ninglang), and (4) apples without any characteristic volatile composition. In addition, it was found that mean annual temperature was significant correlated with 2-methyl butyl acetate,butyl 2-methyl butanoate, hexyl acetate, and (E)-2-hexenyl acetate. Longitude was significantly correlated with butyl acetate, (Z)-3-hexenyl acetate, and ethyl hexanoate.

This study aimed to investigate whether inhalation of the air with 30% oxygen compared with normal air enhances cognitive functioning through increased activation in the brain. The verbal and visuospatial tasks were performed while brain images were scanned. The results showed that there were improvements in performance and also increased activation in several brain areas under the condition of 30% oxygen. These results suggest that a higher concentration of the inhaled oxygen increases the saturation of the blood oxygen in the brain, and facilitates cognitive performance.

Herein, we describe the case of a 6-year-old female ferret that died within a few days of the onset of anorexia and reduced spontaneous locomotor activity. Necropsy revealed a dark red abdominal mass of unknown origin between the right lobes of the pancreas and the proximal jejunum, with massive blood retention in the peritoneal cavity. Histopathologically, spindle-shaped or sometimes polygonal tumor cells were proliferating with irregularly shaped vascular spaces containing blood components and surrounding-tissue infiltration. In some areas, tumor cells formed distinctly dilated blood vessel-like structures. Immunohistochemically, most of the tumor cells were strongly positive for CD31, but factor VIII-related antigen immunoreactivity was confined to the area with dilated blood vessel-like structures. Based on these findings, the tumor was diagnosed as an abdominal hemangiosarcoma. Abdominal hemangiosarcoma excluding cases of the liver and spleen are rare in ferrets.

[Purpose] This study aimed to examine that therapeutic efficacy of an unstable surface on balance and gait ability in normal individuals. [Subjects and Methods] Forty subjects participated in the experiment and were randomly assigned to an experimental group of 20 subjects and a control group of 20 subjects. The experimental group performed balance exercise on an Aero-Step device (Aero-Step XL, TOGU, Prien-Bachham, Germany). The control group performed balance exercise on rigid ground. All subjects performed balance training 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week, for 4 weeks. After the intervention, balance measuring equipment (Good Balance, Metitur, Jyvaskyla, Finland) was used to quantitatively measure balance ability. [Results] Significant differences in post-training gains in the variables of static balance, dynamic balance, and velocity were observed between the experimental group and the control group. [Conclusion] Unstable surface training aimed at improving balance ability is considered to have a positive effect.

Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) and chronic lymphocytic inflammation with pontine perivascular enhancement responsive to steroids (CLIPPERS) can share clinical features and may be indistinguishable, even after brain biopsy. We encountered a case of Epstein-Barr virus-positive (EBV+) PCNSL recurrence in a patient with clinical features of CLIPPERS, and repeat brain biopsy was required to reach the correct diagnosis. Four years after the initial diagnosis and treatment of PCNSL, "peppering" punctate enhanced lesions with transient steroid responsiveness were detected during brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). A second brain biopsy supported a diagnosis of CLIPPERS, while a third biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of recurrent PCNSL.
