Gender can be rightly considered as the "universal otherness" regardless of cultural, ethnic, and/or national differences. This paper argues that masculinity/femininity in gender is the most familiar cultural differences and by practicing releases its "spiritual personality" via cross-cultural translation. Also, it further posits that understanding gender relations the sine qua non for the existence of each other belonging as a whole person. By deconstructing gender in two parts, each part becomes deformed, plagued, contaminated with its viability being lost. Similarly, Jung explains gender as a goal for personality formation, the concept of integrating masculinity and femininity arises in educating the original "self through liberating his or her contra-sexual archetypes in universal unconsciousness: "anima" refers to the latent femininity in man; and "animus" refers to the latent masculinity in women. The gender relations are meant not only to promote cooperation as fellow beings, but to translate each others' differences in order to activate creative spirituality as a unique personality. In this sense, the term "gender-free" points to the releasing spiritual-level individual identity, rather than females advancing and assimilating in androcentric society, or females becoming andro-genized or vice versa. This puts the border differences between males and females in adaptable and heterogeneous, equivocal binary opposition of males and females, allowing further pursuit for a new "female culture" or "male culture. "Thus, "gender-free" does not mean the demise of differences, but the emergence of the spiritual person within through gender cross-cultural translation.

熱気球の運航は、気象の変化に大きく影響を受ける。そのためパイロットは、安全な運航を行うための気象に関する知識と変化を予測する力が必要である。気象の変化をより正確に予測するために必要な知識は、天気図の解読、雲の特徴、地形特有の気象変化などである。さらにパイロットは、見えるもの、感じるもの全てから気象の情報を得る姿勢を持ち、気象の変化を正確に予測するトレーニングを続けることが重要である。不特定多数のゲストを搭乗させる係留は、ロープで地上に固定されていること、活動する時間帯が日中であること、活動が長時間に及ぶことから、自由飛行以上に気象の変化に影響を受ける。したがって、パイロットは、係留を安全に行うために「係留の中止を決定する基準」を持つ必要があり、その基準は、次の1~5であると考えられる。1.風速4m/sec またはパイロット技能の許容範囲を超えているとき2.インフレ時に球皮が暴れクルーが振り回されるとき3.クルーが地上で熱気球を静止させることが不可能なとき4.サーマルの発生もしくは強い上昇気流が発生したとき5.積乱雲の急激な発達が確認されたとき

Assessment of biological potency and its comparison with clinical effects are important in the quality control of therapeutic glycoproteins. Animal models are usually used for evaluating bioactivity of these compounds. However, alternative methods are required to simplify the bioassay and avoid ethical issues associated with animal studies. Negatively charged sialic acid residues are known to be critical for in vivo bioactivity of recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO). In this study, we used capillary zone electrophoresis, a charge-based separation method, to estimate the sialic acid content for predicting in vivo bioactivity of rhEPO. In vivo bioactivities of rhEPO subfractions were measured and compared with sialylation levels. The results obtained indicated that in vivo bioactivity of rhEPO is not simply correlated with the sialylation level, which suggests that it is difficult to predict biological potency from the sialic acid content alone. N-Glycan moieties as well as sialic acid residues may have a significant impact on in vivo bioactivity of rhEPO.

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of a decrease in thoracic kyphosis angle on the knee adduction moment during gait in healthy young individuals. [Subjects and Methods] Twenty-nine healthy adults, consisting of 15 males and 14 females (21.6 ± 1.1 years old), participated. The draw-in maneuver was used to decrease thoracic kyphosis, and thoracic kyphosis was measured using a SpinalMouse during normal standing and standing with the draw-in maneuver. The participants were required to maintain the draw-in maneuver during gait. A 3-D motion analysis system and a force plate were used to obtain knee adduction moment. [Results] Thoracic kyphosis angles during the draw-in maneuver (41.0 ± 7.4 degrees) were significantly decreased compared with the angles during normal standing (43.0 ± 7.9 degrees). Although the knee adduction moment during gait with the draw-in maneuver was not significantly decreased compared with that during level gait, in the 20 subjects who had decreased kyphosis due to the draw-in maneuver, the 1st peak knee adduction moment (55.7 ± 24.3 × 10−3) with the draw-in maneuver was significantly decreased compared with the knee adduction moment (57.0 ± 16.3 × 10−3) during level gait. [Conclusion] Knee adduction moment in the case of a decreased thoracic kyphosis angle due to the draw-in maneuver was decreased compared with that during level gait.

Background:Anticoagulation is recommended as standard of care for venous thromboembolism (VTE) (pulmonary embolism [PE]/deep vein thrombosis [DVT]), for which unfractionated heparin (UFH) and warfarin are used in Japan. In the multi-regional AMPLIFY study, a fixed-dose regimen of apixaban alone was non-inferior to conventional therapy for treatment of PE/DVT and was associated with significantly fewer bleeding events.Methods and Results:Japan phase 3 study (AMPLIFY-J), randomized, active-controlled, open-label study in Japanese subjects with acute PE/DVT, was designed based on AMPLIFY. Key objectives were to investigate safety and efficacy of apixaban in symptomatic PE/DVT subjects during 24-week treatment. UFH/warfarin was used as control treatment. Apixaban was initiated at 10 mg twice daily for 7 days, followed by 5 mg twice daily for 23 weeks. All endpoints and imaging for thrombotic burden were assessed by an event adjudication committee. Eighty subjects were randomized, 33 subjects (41.3%) were aged <65 years. Proportion of major/clinically relevant non-major bleeding was lower in apixaban (7.5%) compared with well-controlled UFH/warfarin (28.2%; median TTR, 70.1%). Recurrent VTE occurred in no subjects in apixaban and in 1 subject in UFH/warfarin. Thrombotic burden results were similar in both groups. Proportions of subjects with adverse events was generally similar in both groups.Conclusions:Apixaban was well-tolerated and had a favorable safety profile. No clinically important efficacy difference compared with UFH/warfarin was observed.

ダロウは真偽不定の事態についての判断を表すことができる(例:明日は晴れるだろう)。本稿はダロウの表す判断における推論過程の特徴について考察することを目的とする。推論には、結果からその原因を導く「原因推論」と、原因からその結果を推論する「結果推論」とがある。「原因」と「結果」を、南(1974、1993)の文の階層構造におけるB類のカラで示される事態レベルの関係(「広義因果関係」)におけるものと定義すると、ダロウは「結果推論」には馴染むが、「原因推論」には抵抗を示すことがわかる。ダロウが「原因推論」を表せるのは一定の要件を満たす場合である。「広義因果関係」の逆が成立する場合もこれに相当する。すなわち、「ある結果があればこのような原因があると判断できる」という関係性が知識として定着している、あるいはその関係がカラ節によって強制的に表示される場合である。また、疑問の答として、あるいは提題の助詞ハとともに用いられてもよい。これらは、推論された結果が何かの原因だということではなく、何らかの根拠から帰結が得られたことにのみ焦点を当てる文脈である。以上の事実は、ダロウが、何らかの根拠から帰結が導かれたことのみを表示し、導かれた帰結が、何かの「原因」や「結果」であることを積極的に示すわけではない、と考えることによって説明可能である。ダロウのこの特徴は、「原因推論」を明示するヨウダ・ラシイとは異なる。

Although microarray has been an important tool that can perform extensive gene expression analyses, next generation sequencing (NGS) has recently arisen as an alternative methodology that can measure gene expression. In this paper, we have compared microarray and NGS quantitatively using microRNA measurements in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and found that these two are coincident with each other. NGS also turned out to be used for biomarker between HCC and normal tissue if the recently proposed principal component analysis based unsupervised feature extraction was applied.Although microarray has been an important tool that can perform extensive gene expression analyses, next generation sequencing (NGS) has recently arisen as an alternative methodology that can measure gene expression.

Native Japanese readers are known to rely heavily on visual codes and far less on phonological codes in letter processing (Mizuno, Matsui, & Bellezza, 2007). This study aimed to determine whether the lexical access of words written in kanji characters would parallel Japanese letter processing. Two experiments measured native Japanese readers’ performance on lexical decision tasks under three nonword conditions: orthographically misleading transposed-letter nonwords, phonologically misleading pseudohomophones, and standard nonwords. The results showed that readers’ performance was impaired by transposed-letter nonwords but not by pseudohomophones, suggesting that native Japanese speakers relied heavily on visual information and to a lesser degree on phonological information in the lexical access of kanji words. These characteristics of lexical access in native Japanese readers may be adaptations to the fact that Japanese kanji words have many homophones.
