This paper examines whether the movement toward convergence of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) has ended. The methodology for this research is based on comparative institutional analysis and experimental game theory. In addition,we adopt a 3×3 coordination game because an essential factor of global accounting convergence is the coordination of accounting standards. The results confirm the termination of a movement toward the convergence of IFRS. Namely, our experiments indicate that global accounting convergence toward IFRS may not be successful. This is because some “egoist” countries maintain their initial systems and do not enter long term cooperation.

米国統治時代、沖縄に導入された洋風(米国系)ファーストフードが、沖縄県民の食生活にどの様に受け入れられているのか、その利用状況と意識調査を行った。調査対象は琉球大学学生と社会人(沖縄銀行行員)である。その結果は次の通りであった。1.琉球大学学生の県内出身学生は県外学生に比較して洋風ファーストフードの利用頻度は高く、外食産業(飲食店)の中で最も多く利用している。利用回数は、月に2回以上と答えた者が県内学生は76.8%で県外学生の52.2%に比べて多い。2.洋風ファーストフードの嗜好性については、県内・県外学生で大差はないが、ビックマック、モスバーガー、ピザ、タコスなどは県内学生に好まれている。3.洋風ファーストフードを利用することについて、琉球大学学生は肯定的な意識があり、今後も取り入れたいとする者が約60%あった。4.社会人の洋風ファーストフードの利用頻度は若い年代ほど高いが、50代以上の年代でも月1回以上利用している者が約50%であった。また、今後も食生活に取り入れたいと回答した者が、どの年代も54%以上あり、利用することに肯定的な意識をもっている。5.米国資本のA&Wが導入されて30年を経た現在、洋風ファーストフードは手軽な食事、あるいは間食・主菜に利用され、沖縄の食生活スタイルに定着している。これは米国統治によって、県民がアメリカ型食生活を直に体験し、それを受け入れたことが大きく影響していると考える。

Cyanobacteria were among the pioneer organisms of the early earth. They first colonized bare rock and had a strong ability to proliferate in infertile substrates, such as volcanic ash, desert sand, and rock. Cyanobacteria store enormous amounts of essential nutrients and metabolites within their cytoplasm. Those that grow in arid lands can be a very potent source of organic matter and nutrients that can be used to counteract desertification. In this study, we explored the potentiality of cyanobacterial strains collected from several regions of Asia (7 strains), Africa (3 strains), and Japan (6 strains). Some of the soils had salinity levels greater than 5 dS m-1 and an alkaline pH of 8.3-9.2. Cyanobacterial strains were screened for their potential to survive in such arid soils by quantifying individual salinity tolerance, ability to fix N2 in a medium containing 0.1M NaCl, and rates of photosynthesis and growth. The inoculation effects on the chemical properties of Alashan soils of Inner Mongolia (China) were evaluated using AL-S and Tateyama cyanobacterial strains. The soil pH of the surface and subsurface layers indicated that these strains can decrease pH to levels that are conducive to plant growth. These cyanobacterial strains have potential as anti-desertification agents for the bioreclamation of arid soils.

本研究は,慢性疾患をもつ学童・思春期患者の自己管理およびそのとらえ方の特徴と影響要因を明らかにし,看護援助に有用な枠組みを構築することを目的とし,Patersonのmeta-studyの方法を用いて26文献を分析した。その結果以下のことが導かれた。慢性疾患の学童・思春期患者の自己管理のとらえ方には,「本人の望む生活」と「疾患の理解・適切な療養行動」のギャップの大きさが影響していた。ギャップが大きな患者は,生活と療養行動の両者を大切なものと考え葛藤を感じており,ギャップが小さい患者は肯定的・葛藤のないとらえ方であり,ギャップが不明瞭な患者は受け身・不確かにとらえており,「疾患の理解・適切な療養行動」を受け入れられない患者は,否定的にとらえていた。葛藤を感じている患者は,親や友達からのサポートを得て「主体的・問題解決」の自己管理を行っており,療養行動を適切に行いながら本人らしい生活を送っていた。肯定的・葛藤のない患者のうち親や友達からのサポートを得ている患者は,時間の経過により自己管理に慣れ療養行動を適切に行っていたが,親や友達からのサポートが不足していると,「受け身・逃避・否認」の自己管理となり,不適切な療養行動によって症状が悪化したり生活に不満をもっていた。受け身・不確か,または否定的にとらえていた患者は,親や友達からのサポートが不足しており,「受け身・逃避・否認」の自己管理となり,不適切な療養行動によって症状が悪化したり生活に不満をもっていた。「本人の望む生活」と「疾患の理解・適切な療養行動」のギャップの大きさと,親・友達からのサポートをアセスメントし,看護援助を行っていく重要性が示唆された。The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of self-care and associated perceptions among Japanese school-aged children and adolescents with chronic conditions and influencing factors, and to develop a framework for effective intervention, analyzing 26 articles using meta-study. The following results were obtained: 1) Perceptions of school-aged children and adolescents with chronic conditions were affected by size of the gap between 'The daily life desired by the child' and 'Performing self-care properly'. Children displaying a large gap experienced conflict, those with a small gap were no conflict, and those with an unclear gap were passive and uncertain. Children denying 'Performing self-care properly' were negative. 2) Children who got support from parents and friends could live as they wished, continuing self-care properly with or without conflict. 3) Children with an unclear gap and children denying 'Performing self-care properly' were unable to get support from parents and friends, and were unsatisfied with their life and displayed poor self-care. Assessments of size of the gap between 'The daily life desired by the child' and 'Performing self-care properly', and support from parents and friends appear important.

We herein report the case of an 84-year-old man with steroid-dependent adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) whose daily steroid dose was successfully tapered after etanercept treatment. The corticosteroids worked well initially, and the patient went into remission promptly; however, he suffered a relapse due to steroid tapering. Because treatment with cyclosporine and methotrexate was ineffective, reducing the steroid dose was difficult, and the corticosteroids induced myopathy and diabetes. However, steroid tapering was accomplished in combination with etanercept therapy, and the patient's steroid-induced side effects disappeared. Etanercept should therefore be considered as a steroid-sparing treatment option in patients with steroid-responsive, steroid-dependent AOSD.

Retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) is a specific transporter of retinol and was recently identified as an adipokine potentially involved in type 2 diabetes in humans and rodents. However, the function and structure of feline RBP4 have not been reported. In this study, we describe the molecular cloning and expression analysis of feline RBP4. The complete feline RBP4 cDNA encodes a precursor protein comprising an 18 amino acid signal peptide and a 183 amino acid mature protein. Feline RBP4 was mapped to chromosome D2. Mature feline RBP4 is 83–94% homologous to the RBPs of humans, cows and rodents. RT-PCR analysis revealed feline RBP4 expression in liver and adipose tissues.

Objective: Perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoate (PFOA) have been shown to accumulate in the human body. The purpose of the present study was to examine the factors associated with the blood levels of PFOS and PFOA. Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed on 307 men and 301 women (aged 16-76 years) living in 15 prefectures in Japan. Blood levels of PFOS and PFOA were measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Hepatic enzymes (γ-GTP, GOT, and GPT) and ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (DHA and EPA) levels in serum were also measured. Associations between the levels of PFOS and PFOA in blood and the intake frequency of 41 kinds of dishes, foods and beverages and the serum levels of liver enzymes and ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids were examined using rank correlations. Results: Frequency of intake of boiled fish in broth, sliced raw fish and coastal fish showed significant positive correlations with PFOS concentrations in blood after adjustments for potential confounders. Serum levels of GOT, GPT, DHA and EPA showed significant positive correlations with PFOS and PFOA in blood. There was also a significant regional difference in the blood levels of PFOS and PFOA, with medians being highest in the Tokai/Hokuriku/Kinki region. Conclusion: These findings suggest that the concentrations of PFOS in blood were mainly associated with fish consumption and that the levels of PFOS and PFOA were mainly associated with the serum levels of liver enzymes in Japanese populations. Further investigations are required to clarify the reason for the regional differences in blood levels of PFOS and PFOA in Japan.

Adrenal diseases are quite common in Japanese pet ferrets; however, there have been no reports concerning the epidemiology of ferret adrenal disease in Japan. The purpose of this study was to collect epidemiological data on ferret adrenal disease in Japan by sending a questionnaire to veterinarians throughout Japan. Among the 521 cases that met the criteria for this study, 307 were adrenocortical carcinoma (58.9%), 117 were adrenocortical adenoma (22.5%) and 87 were adrenocortical hyperplasia (16.7%), respectively. Sex, clinical signs, concurrent diseases, age and the sites of the affected adrenal gland in these cases were similar to those reported in North America. Most pet ferrets in Japan are imported from North America, and their husbandry in Japan is similar to that in North America, which may be the cause of the similarity in ferret adrenal disease between North America and Japan. Because a difference in the incidence of ferret adrenal diseases among countries has been reported, further research is necessary to investigate the factors related to the similarities and how to decrease the incidence of adrenal diseases in ferrets in Japan.

Mycoplasma species identification is based on biochemical, immunological, and molecular methods that require several days for accurate identification. Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) is a novel method for identification of bacteria and has recently been introduced into the clinical microbiology laboratory as a rapid and accurate technique. This method allows a characteristic mass spectral fingerprint to be obtained from whole inactivated mycoplasmal cells. In this study, we evaluated the performance of the MALDI-TOF MS for the identification of Mycoplasma by comparison with standard sequence analysis of 16S rRNA. We developed the first database of MALDI-TOF MS profiles of Mycoplasma species, containing Mycoplasma pulmonis, M. arthritidis, and M. neurolyticum, which are the most common pathogens in mice and/or rats, and species-specific spectra were recorded. Using the database, 6 clinical isolates were identified. Six tracheal swabs from 4 mice and 2 rats were cultured on PPLO agar for 4 to 7 days, and the colonies were directly applied to analyze the protein profiles. Five strains were identified as M. pulmonis, and 1 strain from a mouse was identified as M. neurolyticum (spectral scores were >2.00); the results were consistent with the results of the 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis (homologies>97.0%). These data indicate that MALDI-TOF MS can be used as a clearly rapid, accurate, and cost-effective method for the identification of M. pulmonis isolates, and this system may represent a serious alternative for clinical laboratories to identify Mycoplasma species.
