We investigated the situation of blood donation behavior and attitude toward blood donation in 426 university students. It was observed that samples had little concern for blood donation and the negative images popularly. For a factor analysis in attitude of the blood donation, it was revealed ten factors that were "a pain and fear for blood donation", "a tendency to evasion to blood donation", "contribution to society of blood donation", "physical condition defectiveness of oneself", "an image that blood donation "is to be good",“the badness of an image for blood donation”, “a medical examination of oneself", "a feeling of waste in time", "a dangerous image for blood donation", "influence of the mass media" as the obstructive factors for blood donation. One of the factors, "Indifference to blood donation" contributed strongly to blood donation behaviors as a result of the multiple regression analysis. It was indicated that improvement of promotion for recruitment of blood donation was important.

The purpose of this study was to examine the academic difference due to the evaluation of the integrated type difference based on the degree of obesity. The subjects were 1269 elementary school 6th graders (648 boys and 621 girls) and 988 middle school 3rd graders (511 boys and 477 girls). The degree of obesity was calculated based on the standard weight for the subject’s sex, age, and height. We examined the difference in the average number of correct answers in the national school achievement test based on the degree of obesity using a one-way ANOVA. As a result of the analysis, the following findings were obtained. 1. Among elementary school students, there was a significant difference in academic ability among normal and obese children; the academic level of obese children was lower in both boys and girls. 2. There was no significant difference in academic ability between obese and normal middle school students. However, the academic achievement level of obese boys tended to be large and slightly lower than that of normal boys. These results suggest that establishing a healthy lifestyle and maintaining a standard weight contributes to the healthy development of cognitive function, including academic ability, in children.

1999年(平成11年)改訂の小・中・高等学校の体育・保健体育の学習指導要領1)2)3)では,「集団行動の指導は,運動の特性との関連において適切に行う」こととしている.すなわち,集団行動の時間を特別に設けて指導するのではなく,各運動領域の運動の特性に応じて適切に指導するとか,あるいは特別活動の学校行事等の機会に集団指導を行うこととしている. 学校における集団行動とは,集合,整とん,列の増減などの行動をいい,その行動の仕方は色々な機会をとらえて指導しようとするものである. 児童生徒の集団を集合させたら,先ず最初に発する号令は「気をつけ」であり,「気をつけ」の姿勢を指導するであろう.一方,社会人になって「気をつけ」の号令を受けることは全く無いといってよい.しかしながら学校において教師は,極めて普通に,何の戸惑いや抵抗もなく「気をつけ」という号令を発し,児童生徒はその号令を受けている. この度,日本における「気をつけ」号令と「気をつけ」姿勢にこだわって,その歴史を若干の資料からたどってみたいと思う.

The toe flexor strength, indicated by the flexion function of the plantar and toe, is closely related to various physical fitness factors. Moreover, it has been clarified that performance is expected to improve by training the movement of toes. On the other hand, regular practice and pre-match warm-up are indispensable from the viewpoint of injury prevention and performance enhancement. However, some types and methods of warming up are ineffective in enhancing performance. We verified the effect of a novel warm-up method that utilizes the flexion motion of the toes. Therefore, in this study, we investigated whether a warm-up incorporating plantar and toe flexor movement was effective in improving the agility, jumping, and sprinting performances. This study included 40 male university students who belonged to the athletic club. They were randomly classified into four groups of 10 participants each: dynamic stretch (DS) group, plantar-toe movement group, DS + plantar-toe movement group, and control group. The participants were assessed for toe gripping force, Illinois test, standing long jump, and 20-m running both before and after warming up. According to the results of the Illinois test, the plantar-toe movement group and DS + plantar-toe movement group showed improvement after the intervention, and a significant difference was noted with respect to the time factors (P<0.01). Additionally, in the intergroup factors of the Illinois test after the intervention, a significant difference was observed between the plantar-toe movement group, DS + plantar-toe movement group and the control group (P<0.05). The results of this study suggest that warming up with the plantar and toe movement is effective in improving the, Acceleration deceleration, and turning around, which are the parameters of the Illinois test.

The purpose of this study was to measure blood pressure (SBP, DBP), heart rate (HR) and power spectrum (LF, HF) during four types of isometric handgrip exercises (IHG) with the different intensity and duration of time, to observe the function of the autonomic nervous system, and to clarify the response patterns induced to intensity and duration time for the assessment of hypertension. Eighteen male subjects aged 20 years old cooperated as volunteers, and performed four kinds of IHGs on one day for each subject. Experiment (Exp)ⅠandⅡconsisted of five intensities of IHG set for 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 percent of maximal voluntary contraction (% MVC). ExpⅠgot intermittent (Int) loading contraction, the subjects keep gripping for ten seconds each % MVC with sufficient rest between IHG trials. ExpⅡ(continuous; Cont) got the same procedure as ExpⅠ, but no rest between trials that was done incrementaly. ExpⅠandⅡof IHG both tried from 20% MVC to 60% MVC. ExpⅢ(steady contraction; Sted, 40% MVC) got contraction keeping for forty seconds, and ExpⅣ(Sted, 30% MVC) kept the continuous grip for two minutes. Subjects accomplished all Exps in sitting on a chair. The load level (%) was checked by a picture on a personal computer in front of the subject by itself. During the IHG, arterial SBP, DBP, HR were continuously measured, and calculated LF and HF from the saved HR data with heart rate variability (HRV) software after these measurements. During IHG, the stronger of intensities or the longer of duration, the higher of SBP, DBP and HR were showed. Those differences were remarkably indicated on the Sted (Cont) than on the Imt trial. The pressor response of Cont IHG significantly correlated to SBP/DBP increase in Sted IHG, those makers during the Int IHG didn’t correlate significantly though. HF and LF power revealed enhancement of activity on the autonomic nerves induced to increase of hardness during IHG. According to above results, continuous (Cont) and/or steady (Sted) loadings seemed to be effective to evaluate hypertensive possibility in future much more feasible and validly than Imt loading so far the loading under 60% MVC.

In recent years, the action of plantar and toes to play an important role in the movement ability of the elderly has been confirmed. Moreover, exercise using the toes is effective in improving the walking and balance of the elderly, and the need for toe exercise for the elderly is increasing. To date, there have been many reports verifying the effect of toe exercise over a long period of time, and there are few studies examining the immediate effect of toe exercise in the elderly. In this study, we examined the immediate effect of plantar and toe flexor exercise on the movement ability of the elderly. The study comprised 16 participants (3 male and 13 female; average age, 75.1±5.0 years). A crossover study was conducted by dividing the subjects into two conditions: control, and plantar and toe flexor exercise conditions. For plantar and toe flexor exercise, we performed a total of four types of exercises: (1) static stretching of the plantar and toe (2) towel gathering, (3) rock scissors and paper exercise, and (4) stepping on the foot plate. Additionally, toe flexor strength, toe’s ten-second test, 5 m walking time, 3 m zigzag walking time and TUG were measured before and after intervention to verify the immediate effects of plantar and toe flexor exercise. A two-way analysis of variance with both factors corresponding to each other showed that the toe flexor strength, toe's ten-second test, 5 m walking time, 3 m zigzag walking, and TUG measurement items were comparable between the two conditions after intervention. A significant difference was confirmed between the plantar and toe flexor exercise and control conditions. The results indicated that plantar and toe flexor exercise had an immediate effect on toe flexor strength, toe dexterity, and movement ability in straight line walking and direction changes.

Stress affects memory acquisition, but the direction of the effect varies. Some studies report that stress enhances memory, and others report that stress impairs memory. The relation between the effect of pleasant stimuli on neural activity in the hippocampus and memory acquisition is unclear. The amygdala has a primary role in processing emotion and mediates affectively-influenced memory. The hippocampus is critically involved in memory. We evaluated the effect of pleasant and unpleasant stimuli on neuronal activity in these regions during picture-encoding using functional magnetic resonance imaging and memory acquisition. To test whether pleasant and unpleasant stimuli affect memory acquisition, a recall test was administered 20 minutes after encoding. Fifteen subjects (8 men; mean age 37.9±12.9 years [range 20-61]) participated. Pleasant and unpleasant stimuli increased blood oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD) signals in the amygdala. The pleasant stimulus enhanced neuronal activity in the hippocampus (i.e., increased BOLD signals) and increased memory acquisition. The unpleasant stimulus decreased both hippocampal neural activity and memory acquisition. Visual Analogue Scale scores for the pleasant and unpleasant stimuli were 8.7±0.5 and 9.0±0.6, respectively. Thus, pleasant and unpleasant stimuli might influence memory acquisition by increasing or reducing hippocampal activity during picture-encoding.

The aim of this study was to elucidate the thoughts of nurses working at hospitals about the therapies for elderly patients who were admitted because were likely to die due to senility. To this end, a questionnaire survey was administered to 97nurses working at three hospitals, who had participated in a workshop, and 49 valid responses were obtained. As a result, the following four categories were extracted: “supporting death with dignity,” “decision support in a non-uniform end-of-life care,” “practice of care according to the intentions of a patient and his/her family,” and “conflict over the selection of a remedy, without performing any therapy.” Nurses wanted to support a death with dignity and a natural death due to senility. However, there were problems that nurses could not control, such as the level of therapy, and the directions for end-of-life care under the conditions of senility were uncertain. Therefore, it was considered necessary to examine end-of-life care strategies for elderly patients.

Body-sway measurements have been used as one of the methods to diagnose equilibrium disorders. A qualitative evaluation of unique body-sway characteristics of patients with specific disorders has been chiefly used. Recently, quantitatively and objectively evaluating body-sway has been advocated. This evaluation method can diagnose healthy people's body functions and has been noted as an effective body-sway method. However, methods that evaluate body-sway are not necessarily rationally united. In addition, although many evaluation parameters have been proposed, they have not been arranged objectively. It may be important to examine the following two points to rationally establish an evaluation method of the healthy people's body-sway. One is to arrange traditional evaluation methods and measurement conditions used in the past and to clarify the factors related to body-sway. Another is to carefully examine effective evaluation parameters for healthy people and set a proper evaluation criterion after inspecting their statistical validity and reliability. These general remarks clarify the above two points through a comprehensive literature review, and introduce a simple and rational evaluation methods of healthy people's health states in addition to upright standing posture control based on their body -sway.

Work engagement was recently introduced as a positive concept contradictory to burnout. Nurses who are actively engaged in their work are considered to be full of vitality, feel confident in their duties, and are able to cope well with the demands of work. This study aimed to elucidate the present situation of work engagement in hospitals for community-based care (Hs-C-BC). The Japanese version of the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES) was administered to nurses in 137 facilities in four prefectures in the Tokai region using. The valid response rate was 41.6% (N = 570). In an exploratory factor analysis, no items had factor loadings below 0.40 and all question items converged on the first factor. Regarding item-total correlation, all question items were correlated with each other. Ceiling and floor effects were not exhibited. Therefore, the UWES was judged to be usable in Hs-C-BC. The UWES revealed that family support, continuous learning, and duty position were important for nurses, in addition to support systems and human relationships in Hs-C-BC. Through continuous learning and being supported by their families and friends, nurses can be positively engaged in their work based on their duty positions.

In order to increase the national presence of Japanese football, it is necessary to first understand the current prevalence. While it has been said that the prevalence of football varies considerably across the country, it has not been examined objectively. This study aimed to analyze the ratio of the number of football players, teams, and referees of each prefecture to the total population based on data published by the Japan Football Association. The total population, the number of football players, teams, referees, and high grade referees differed among each prefecture, and the three prefectures of Akita, Nara, and Wakayama were lower in the ratio of football players and teams to total population than the other prefectures. In addition, the number of teams showed a very high relationship (r=0.91) with the number of players and moderately-high relationships (r=0.70 and 0.73) with the referees. The relationships of the number of referees and high grade referees and of players and the number of both types of referees were moderate(r=0.55-0.68). From the present results, the prevalence of football differs among each prefecture and is lowest in the three prefectures of Akita, Nara, and Wakayama. The number of football referees is closely related to the prevalence of football.

Curcumin, from turmeric, has been investigated for its anti-inflammatory activity. We investigated the effects of giving the curcumin on delayed onset muscle soreness and muscle function following eccentric exercise. We used a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, crossover trial with two 8-day testing phases and a 3-month washout period. Ten healthy male subjects performed two bouts of eccentric exercise involving elbow flexion (6 sets of 4 repetitions) 30 min after curcumin (150 mg) or placebo was given. Perceived muscle soreness, maximal voluntary isometric elbow flexor strength, elbow range of motion (ROM), and upper arm circumference were assessed before, immediately post (0), 24, 48, 72, and 96 h following exercise. All parameters changed significantly (p<0.05) in both groups at 0 h. There was significantly (p<0.05) less perceived muscle soreness and higher maximal isometric strength in the curcumin group compared with the placebo group after 48, 72, and 96 h. There was a significant (p<0.05) smaller reduction in elbow ROM in the curcumin group compared with the placebo group at 0, 24, 48, 72, and 96 h. No differences were observed in upper arm circumference. This suggests that curcumin can alleviate muscle soreness and enhance muscle recovery after exercise-induced muscle damage.

This study aimed to clarify the exercise intensity of the motor learning scenes in elementary school physical education class. The subjects were 28 children (16 boys and 12 girls) in the 5th grade. We examined all five exercises of long jump, physical expression, tag rugby, hurdle run and tee ball. Lifecorder GS (SUZUKEN Co.,Ltd.) was used to measure exercise intensity. The results of the analysis showed a significant difference in exercise intensity among individuals. The analysis revealed difference in exercise intensity between tag rugby and tee ball, between tag rugby and long jump, and between physical expression and long jump (p<0.05). About differences among the average of exercise intensity in exercise, hurdle run was significantly higher than tag rugby, physical expression, and tee ball, and the long jump was significantly higher than the tee ball(p<0.05). In each exercise, the proportion of motor learning scenes was 75.4%, 70.7%, 62.8%, 58.0%, and 43.9%, for tee ball, physical expression, long jump, hurdle run, and tag rugby, respectively. These findings suggest that exercise intensity did not increase when motor learning scenes were secured. The incorporation of high-intensity activities in exercises with low exercise intensity may be necessary.

In our previous study, we found that FetCO2 (PaCO2) increased during kendo with vocalization. Cerebral blood flow may increase during kendo exercises because PaCO2 has cerebral vasodilator effects. In this study, we measured the blood flow of the common carotid artery during intermittent bicycle ergometer exercise with vocalization as a basic study to elucidate the physiological characteristics of kendo. As a result, at the 80% V・O2peak with vocalization (same load as “kakari-keiko”), we observed a significant increase in FetCO2 (P = 0.022) and blood flow in the common carotid artery (P = 0.040). At the 60%V・O2peak with vocalization (same load as “kirikaeshi”), there was no significant increase in FetCO2; however, we observed a significant increase in blood flow in the common carotid artery (P = 0.035). In addition, in an ultrasonic image of the common jugular vein during exercise with vocalization, we observed the over-swelling of an internal jugular vein with partial blood regurgitation. This indicated that blood flow was temporarily stagnant. These results suggest that the increase in common carotid arteryblood flow was induced during exercise with vocalization. The increase in FetCO2 caused by vocalization, however, was not considered to be the main factor. One of the factors causing the increased common carotid artery blood flow was revealed to be related to an increasing-canceling of intrathoracic pressure due to vocalization-no-vocalization.

This study examined the effect of exercise intensity on establishing exercise habits by comparing the difference in the retention rate of exercise habits when provided exercise intervention groups (exercise programs, exercise classrooms) with different exercise intensity. Participation (requirement) of exercise intervention were 20-64 years old women without exercise habits (30 minutes or more, once at least twice a week) for one year or more, outstanding sports history in the past, confident in physical strength and athletic ability, and special consideration to exercise by a doctor. Twenty-nine women participated, 17 participants were assigned to low- to moderate-intensity exercise intervention group, 12 participants were assigned to moderate- to vigorous-intensity exercise intervention group. All groups participated in the same number of sessions (90minutes a session and twice a week) and the same periods (12 weeks). The main exercises were stretching and walking in low- to moderate-intensity exercise group, and walking and jogging in moderate- to vigorous-intensity exercise group. One year after the end of the exercise intervention, the survey showed that the retention rate of exercise habits in low- to moderate-intensity exercise group was 7 out of 12 (58.3%) and that in moderate- to vigorous-intensity exercise group was 2 out of 11 (18.2%). There was no significant difference in the retention rate of exercise habits between two groups (χ2 test, p=0.089). Self-efficacy for exercise did not increase significantly in either group (low- to moderate-intensity exercise group: baseline 8.8±3.0 → post 9.4±2.5 → survey 8.5±3.1 points, moderateto vigorous-intensity exercise group: 11.3±2.9 → 11.0±3.7 → 10.8±2.2 points. Interaction: p = 0.694, simple main effect of time: p=0.585, simple main effect of group: p=0.061). These results suggest that the effect of exercise intensity on establishing exercise habits and self-efficacy for exercise-related establishing exercise habits might be small.
