Following the school health statistics from the Ministry of Education myopia prevalence rate in elementary school children and secondary school pupils for 10 years from 1955 to 1964 is revealed by 46 prefectures . On the geographic distribution of the prevalence rate, the correlations with natural environmental factors such as annual average temperature and annual insolation duration and with socio-economic factors such as promotion rate of pupils to higher school and living expenditures per person per month are calculated. 1. Myopia prevalence rate is higher in the area of Japan sea side slope from Hokkaido to Hokuriku and in the large cities of the Pacific side, lower in the area which extends from southern Kyushu through Shikoku to Wakayama and in the northern Kanto plain area . 2. The negative correlation with the geographic distribution of annual average temperature is recognized for female. The negative correlation with the geographic distribution of annual insolation duration is found for both sexes, but that for female is higher. 3. The positive correlation with the geogrophic distribution of the promotion rate to the senior secondary school is recognized only for junior secondary school pupils, but the correlation with the promotion rate to the college and the university is found in all male and female groups of all schools. 4. The highest grade positive correlation is found with the geographic distribution of living expenditures per person per month of all consumers for male and female groups of all schools.

The authors has introduced a newly found investigation record on the Japanese nutritional status during the war. It was published as a secret document in December, 1948, carried out by the Institute of the Ministry of Health and Walfare. It has never been cited in any historical writings on nutrition after the war. Department of Health Science investigated the physical status and diseases . On the other hand, Department of National Nutrition collected nutritional data with the food consumption survey. The survey staffs were Dr. Koya, Dr. Yamakawa, Dr. Tachikawa, Dr. Kubo, Dr. Nobechi, Dr. Sugimoto and so on. They have been famous as the members of Japanese societies of public health and allied sciences. The report includes as followings: (1) On school children; physical constitution, nutritional status, carrying luncheon and its food items, and the uses of eutrophics. (2) On pregnant women and neonatal children; body weight, morbidity rate, the items, frequency and quantity of the staple food, and the purchase of the food stuffs. (3) On salaries men in urban areas; body weight, morbidity conditions of tuberculosis and beriberi etc., quantity and quality of staple foods, food stuffs of subsidiary foods, items of snacks and the uses of eutrophics. (4) On the workers of several important factories; body weight, intake of protein and energy. As well as this survey was performed nation-widely, it was summed up and appreciated statistically as to yearly trend, region, sex, occupation and so on. This report can be evaluated not only as a basic historical record to prove the condiiton under the war, but also as a precious material to study the later nutritional effects for the people who had spent the under-nutritional period during the after the war time.

Um der Erläuterung der Lues-Metalues-Frage näher zu kommen, wurde le systematisclie Untersuchung der Wassermannschen Reaktion unter der Ainu-Rasse angefangen. Die vorliegende Mitteilung enthält die Ergebnisse aus dem Material, welches von der Gemeinde Piratori, Hokkaido, und ihrcr anliegenden Umgebung stammt. Die Gesamtzahl der Untersuchten betrug 610, darunter 203 Männer, 407 Frauen. Durch die wahllose Durchführung der Untersuchung von Gesunden und Kranken sind die folgenen Ergebnisse etwa als die Durcbschnittszahl anzusehen, welche auf die Syphilisausbreitung dieser Gegend hinweist.Wenn es berücksichtigt wird, dass die Prpzentzahl aus Kontrollmaterial, welches aus etwa 200 c. -igentlichen Japanern dieser Gegend bestand, 16, 9% war, so ist es klar ersichtlich, wie stark die Syp%ilis unter den Ainu verbreitet ist. Die folgende Tabelle demonstriert die Wassermannshe Reaktion bei den verschiedenen Lebensaltern.Sehr zu beachten ist die hthe Prozentzahl unter der Gruppe bis zum 15. Lebensjahre, Während sonst bei der klinischen Untersuchung dei-Kinder nur äusserst selten congenital-syphilitische Merkmale zu finden waren je ein Fall mit den Hutchinsonschen Zähnen und der Sattelnase. Auch von ophthalmologischer Seite wutcle kein einziger Fall mit parenchymatöser Keratitis festgestellt. Trotz solchen klinischen Verhältnissen wird dennoch die erwähnre hohe Prozentzahl unter den Jugenhlichen nicht anders als der Ausdruck der ausgebreiteten Congenital-Lues gedeutet werden müssen. Die Prozentzahl der positiven WaR. schwankt von Dorf, zu Dorf von 20, 9% bis zu 53, 8%. Diese Schwankung kann sich gewissermassen auf die geographischen, hygienischen oder sozialen Verhaltnisse jedes Dories beziehen.Durch die klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung fand mai sehr häufig Fälle mit pathologisch r Lichtreaktion der Pupillen. Wir fanden aber in chn Ainu aus erwähnter Gegend nur je einen Fall von Dementia paralytica und Tabes dorsalis a's die manifeste Syphilis des Zentralnervensystems. Die klinische Form dieser Metaluetiker zeigte keine Abweichung von der typischen.Die Bluttypenbestimmung, die bei der Untersuchung der WaR. anhangs-weiss ausgeführt wurde, ergab folgendeZahlen: Gruppe o: 99 Fälle, Gruppe A: 188 Fälle, Gruppe B: 194 Fälle, Gruppe AB: C8 Fälle. Der berechnete Rassenindex, 0, 98, deckt skin mit der Literatur erhobenen Zahlen anierer Autoren.

<p>It has been suggested that comprehensive dietary variables and depressive states are associated, but the relationship in Japanese university students when adjusted for psychological factors is not clear. We investigated the association between food-intake patterns and depressive states after adjusting for the influence of psychological factors in university students enrolled in a registered dietician training course in Japan. 256 students who participated in this study were administered questionnaires, and they underwent a physical measurement survey. Of the 240 students who completed the survey items, food-intake patterns were evaluated by principal component analysis from the results of the self-administered food frequency questionnaires, and the principal component score of each individual's pattern were calculated. Depressive states were assessed using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression (CES-D) Scale. Logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the odds ratios of depressive states (CES-D &ge; 16) with adjustments for potential confounding variables, such as psychological factors. This study was conducted with the approval of the ethics committee of the University of Human Arts and Sciences Ethics. We identified three food-intake patterns: "A Japanese food-intake pattern of side dish", "A western food-intake pattern of side dish", "A staple food intake pattern". "A Japanese food-intake pattern of side dish" characterized by high intakes of seaweeds, mushrooms, green and yellow vegetables, seafood, light-colored vegetables, potatoes, and pickles was associated with lower rates of depressive states. The multivariate-adjusted odds ratio of having depressive states for "A Japanese food-intake pattern of side dish" was 0.64 (confidence in tervals = 0.46-0.89, P value = 0.008) . Our results suggested that "A Japanese food-intake pattern of side dish" may be related to decreased prevalence of depressive states in Japanese university students.</p>

The developmental process of models which Dickert and Grady suggested for the payment to research subjects was analysed, through a critical reading of their paper and a comparison with preceding papers written by Macklin and Ackerman. The wage payment model which Dickert and Grady recommended has developed for non-clinical research and was recognized as a product of compromise between competing interests ; the need to recruit subjects and obligation to offer them certain types of protection. Application of this model to clinical research causesmore ethical problems of payment as compared with its application to non-clinical research. In clinical research, furthermore, payment itself reveals more about commercial relationship between physicians and patients. However, the model has an ethical advantage to prevent therapeutic misconception. Although the reimbursement model is less likely to commercialize the patientphysician relationship, it is difficult to adopt the model as it can not prevent therapeutic misconception. Payment to patients, a symbol of clinical trials which includes tension between the obligation of society to promote research and the obligation to prevent the moral interests of patients, should be used as a tool to conduct informed consent through which both patients and physicians could attain profound realization of clinical trials together.

In this project we attempted to determine the influence of day-and night-shift working coditions upon the unconscious behaviour of the workers using the overall concept of dividing their personalities into "superficial" and "deep" levels, unlike the conventional methods employed. Although it is premature to think that this method can immediately be applicable, it may become a useful method for the analysis of acquired influences. For explicit behaviour, like "living tempo" or "time language", a strong introvertive consciousness is required, whereas facial expressions, actions, or speech, which characterize dynamic patterns and indications, are outwardly exhibited and are regarded as a cluster of variables enabling observations from the outside. This allows us to utilize the characteristics of inhibiting a defensive reaction, and secondly by enabling the recognition of the influence after a long period of time thus becoming an effective means of standardizing the method for future research and development.

It seems that research designs with large sample size employing statistical analysis are regarded as valuable in modern research of medicine or public health. Significance of case study may be forgotten in recent years. In quantitative researches based on a large number of cases, individuality and bumpiness of each cases are leveled flatly, and we cannot acquire precise information about personal histories behind each cases, course of diseases or process of treatment from such researches. Case studies can provide meaningful information to those engaged in clinical practice or public health activities in communities. There is complementary relationship between quantitative researches with large sample size and case studies, and both types of study are essential. However, professional skills which each professional acquire through his experience are not sufficiently described in case studies as well as in qualitative researches. The author thinks that we could acquire professional skills only through working with and learning from experts under apprenticeship system. In medical disciplines, we come to be able to make scientific and effective interventions, when three types of learning; knowing information from qualitative researches, learning from case studies and acquisition of skills through practical experience under apprenticeship system, meet together.

Objective : This study investigates whether the working status of mothers results in an unbalanced diet (no acceptance of disliked foods) of their preschool children, and the relationship of the preschool children's unbalanced diet and its relevant factors.<br>Methods : This cross-sectional study was conducted using the responses of 1,145 mothers at 15 public kindergartens in a suburban city located in the Kanto region. A self-rating questionnaire examined mother's age and working, child's age and gender, the unbalanced diet of mother and their child, and eating education provided to child.<br>Results : The unbalanced diet of children were not associated with the working status of their mothers. Among non-working mothers, the causal factors of the unbalanced diet of their children were classified as the unbalanced diet of the mother, neglecting to instruct child not to waste food, not giving to child's meal child disagreeable foods or weak foods. Among working mothers, not engaging their child to help in the preparation of meals was the most prominent cause of children's diet unbalances.<br>Conclusion : It was suggested that although the working status of mothers has no direct effect on the unbalanced diet of their childrens, differences in the factors relating to the unbalanced diet of their childrens depend on whether the mother is employed or unemployed.

The purpose of this study is to comprehend the correlation between the conditions of experience in sexual behavior and the sex education needs of high school students. We conducted a cross-sectional study in January-February 2004 using self-response sheetstargeting 681 students (15-16 years old) attending three public high schools in Ibaraki Prefecture and received valid responses from 627. The subjects of the analysis were divided into three groups depending on the conditions of experience in sexual behavior. We found that, as sexual behavior becomes more active, there are more pressing needs for sexual behavior related information such as "contraceptive methods" and "sexually transmitted infectious diseases" while lessinterest is shown in "male and female psychology" or "interaction between the sexes, " It became clear that the source of sex-related information is shifting from textbooks and school instruction to friends and news media. Although 30-40% of the subjects responded that they wanted to know more about the "nature of love" and "interaction between the sexes, " that is hardly handled in sex education. This suggests that needs and the sources of information on sex-related issues also differ.Judging from this result, if instruction in sex education had more varied content depending on experience in sexual behavior, there would likely be a strong possibility of being able to respond better to student needs. Though the primary issues handled in current sex education are probably centered in the provision of medical knowledge, it can be assumed that high school students want to know more essential matters as well as specific methods and it would be desirable for sex education to provide more multifaceted information.

This study of 1230 infants and newborns was undertaken to realize the development of motor activity. Followings are the results obtained.(1) The percentage of the infants who had acquired the activity arised with the monthage advanced, increasing its value rapidly near the point at which median infants had acquired the activity. And it became a slow increase after that point, showing this tendency more obviously in the higher stages of motor development.(2) The harder became the behavior to achieve, the longer were needed the periods during which the percentage of the infants who had acquired the activity came to 100% from 50%, for there were the infants who acquired the activity extremely late for their chronological age. This fact suggests that the motor development is affected by the physical and environmental components.(3) No remarkable differences were observed in the period at which 50% of the infants had acquired the activity comparing with the pre-war babies.(4) No sexual differences were observed in the period at which 50% of the infants had acquired the activity

In January, 1959, I made researches on the marriage circle as well as the consanguineous and non-consanguineous marriages of all the 444 couples living in Kobori Section (462 houses), Takatsuki-ch&ocirc;, Ikagun, Shiga Prefecture, which section is famous for the long life of its inhabitants. And in May, 1959, I made the same researches of the 197 couples of random sampling living in Asakuni, Shofuku-ji and Iwane villages (330 houses in total) in Iwane Section, Koseicho, Kogagun, in the same prefecture, which section is famous for the short life of its inhabitants. The following are the conclusions arrived at : 1) On the marriage circle by age-groups of males There is a tendency that the younger the age is, the larger the marriage circle becomes in both sections. As to the marriages between the same villagers, the former section shows 20. 72% and the latter section shows 30.46% and the difference between the two sections is statistically significant at the level of 1.0% (X<SUP>2</SUP>=6.71>X<SUP>2</SUP><SUB>0.01</SUB>=6.63). On the other hand, as to the marriages between the different villagers or townspeople in this prefecture, the former section shows 27.25% and the latter section shows 19.28%, and the difference between the two sections is statistically significant at the level of 5.0% (X<SUP>2</SUP>=4.73>X<SUP>2</SUP><SUB>0.05</SUB>=3.84). Therefore, the marriage circle of the former section is larger than that of the latter. 2) On the consanguineous and non-consanguineous marriage by age-groups of males As to the consanguineous marriage, Kobori Section shows 10.59% and Iwane Section shows 13.71%. The latter section is larger in percentage than the former, though the difference is statistically insignificant. Of the consanguineous marriages, those between cousins are the most numerous in both sections. In the former section 76.6% of the consanguineous marriages (8.11% of all the couples) and in the latter section 77.8% of the same (10.66% of all the couples) are marriages betweencousins. By the age-groups of males, there is no clear distinction between the two sections. 3) On the marriage circle of consanguineous and non-consanguineous marriages The consanguineous marriages of both Kobori and Iwane secions include more marriages between the same villagers than the non-consanguineous ones of them, with statistically significant differences at the level of 1.0% respectively (X<SUP></SUP>= 12.54>X<SUP></SUP><SUB>0.01</SUB> = 6.63: X<SUP>2</SUP>= 15.69>X<SUP>2</SUP><SUB>0.01</SUB>=6.63), while the non-consanguineous marriages of both Kobori and Iwane sections include more marriages between the different villagers or townspeople in the same prefecture than the consanguineous ones of them, with statistically significant differences at the level of 1.0% respectively (X<SUP>2</SUP> = 9.28>X<SUP>2</SUP><SUB>0.01</SUB> = 6.63: X<SUP>2</SUP> = 7.45>X<SUP>2</SUP><SUB>0.01</SUB> = 6.63). Therefore, in both sections the circle of consanguineous marriages is far narrower than that of non-consanguineous marriages.

Seasonality of nutrient intake was evaluated by 7-successive-day food consumption survey in the ordinary season (March) and the slack season (June) of fish catch among 13 married couples in a Solomon Islands society, who were engaged in traditional horticulture and fishing, together with time allocation study. Males' time spent in gardening and fishing was significantly shorter in June than in March (gardening: -48 min/d, and fishing: -43 min/d; P<0 .05, respectively), while there was no seasonal difference in females. On the other hand, males spent more time in hunting and marketing, and females in particular did more time in marketing (P<0.01). No significant difference in energy intake between March and June was observed for either sex. The protein intake was significantly lower in June than in March (males: -23.9 g/d, P<0.01; females: -12.0 g/d, P<0.05). The males' fat intake was significantly higher in June than in March (+14.8 g/d, P<0.05), thought not significantly in females. To compensate the smaller amount of fish catch in June, the villagers spent more time in hunting and marketing, and they took larger amounts of coconut and a kind of nut, which abounds with fat . This study thus suggested that changes in food obtaining activities and food intake patterns of the villagers played significant roles to cope with seasonal shortage of fish catch.

Okinawa prefecture, consisting of the Ryukyu Islands in the southern part of Japan archiperago, is located in the subtropics. From ancient time, Okinawa had developed trading networks with China, Korea and many Southeast Asian countries and had received cultural influence from them. As the results, it is said that the foods consumed by, and food habits of, Okinawans, have been more similar to those in such countries than in Japan. The life span of Japanese has recently become longest in the world, and it has been longer in Okinawa than in any other prefectures. In this respect, special attention has been drawn to the historical aspects of Okinawan food habits. In the literature so far, however, typical foods, recipes and food habits in specific historical periods were documented but their compiled description throughout the history was lacking. This paper aims at a comprehensive description of the various events from the ancient time to the present to demonstrate their interrelation in a chronicle. Major a pects treated are introduction of foods, food production systems, food-processing, trades, marketing activities, food consumptions, religious roles of food services, and famines caused by natural and man-made disasters in relation to food habits.

During the 20th century, Japanese society experienced dramatic demographic changes accompanied by shifts in the epidemiological and health-related domains. During this demographic transition, mortality rates have declined, life expectancy has increased, and fertility rates have declined. Since 2008, the population has decreased and is expected to continue decreasing, with a higher average age. These changes are associated with shifts in the distribution of employment opportunities ; in the composition of households ; and in the balance between rural and urban populations, in favor of the latter, with jobs moving from the agricultural sector to manufacturing and service industries. Lifestyles have changed, social bonds have weakened, and the economic gap between generations and genders has increased. These changes have challenged society's ability to provide adequate and financially sustainable medical and nursing services while also reducing the potential environmental burden on future generations. The close relationship between demographic and social changes underlying this transition renders it difficult to mitigate the effects of future aging and shrinking of the Japanese population. Indeed, to develop strategies for the post-transition reality, various scenarios related to the population dynamics of the future must be examined. To this end, we suggest replacing the concept of chronological age with one of biological and societal age. Biological age can be represented by life-expectancy-equivalent age or by healthy life-expectancy-equivalent age, and societal age can be represented by age-structure-equivalent age. A healthy aging population should be promoted by developing sound relations between health and the natural, man-made, and societal environment.
