A 55-year-old woman visited our hospital for an investigation of central bronchiectasis, mucoid impaction and infiltrative shadows on chest CT. She had a 10-year history of bronchial asthma; however, her adherence to treatment was poor. Based on the presence of peripheral blood eosinophilia and immediate cutaneous reactivity to Aspergillus fumigatus, the patient was clinically diagnosed with allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis. Her condition and CT findings improved with systemic corticosteroid therapy. It was found that the patient had not been sensitized to Aspergillus 10 years earlier, indicating that single testing is inadequate for the early diagnosis of this disease.

In a previous questionnaire study with German professional athletes, we showed that the prevalence of lucid dreaming in athletes is 57% and that about 5% of athletes use their lucid dreams to practice sport skills while asleep. The present study applied a Japanese translation of the same questionnaire to a Japanese sample of college athletes to explore cultural differences. We found that about 41% of Japanese athletes stated that they experienced a lucid dream at least once in their lives, 18% experienced them once a month or more frequently, while 3.6% of athletes used lucid dreams for their sport practice. The frequency of lucid dreams in Japanese athletes was lower than in the German athletes, indicating potential cultural differences. Yet lucid dream practice does appear to have a cross-cultural applicability.
