BACKGROUND: The objective of this article was to overview the epidemiology of pancreatic cancer. We summarize the results of the Japan Collaborative Cohort Study (JACC Study) and some previous studies.METHODS: References were mainly in a Medline search through Pub Med database. In addition, 3 papers about the JACC Study were quoted.RESULTS : In the JACC Study, the standardized mortality ratio of pancreatic cancer was 0.97 in females and 0.84 in males. Diabetes mellitus (DM) has increased the risk for pancreatic cancer in many studies. In the JACC Study, DM had a risk for pancreatic cancer in males (hazard ratio = 2.12). Cigarette smoking has been associated with pancreatic cancer in many studies. In the JACC Study, the hazard ratio for current smokers was 1.6 in males, and 1.7 in females. The ratio was 3.3 who smoked 40+ cigarettes/day in males. In the JACC Study, alcohol intake was not associated with pancreatic cancer. These results are consistent with the other studies. Coffee consumption has not been associated with pancreatic cancer in many studies. In the JACC Study, the hazard ratio significantly increased to 3.19 among men who consumed 4+ cups of coffee per day. The relationships between diet /nutrition and pancreatic cancer are not clear in many studies.CONCLUSION: The relation between smoking and pancreatic cancer is most consistently described. A further analysis of the relationships between family history, hormonal factors in females, dietary and nutritional factors, obesity, physical activity and pancreatic cancer is necessary.J Epidemiol 2005; 15: S157-S167.

本論文では,発声機能障害者のための新しい意思伝達装置の開発を目的とし,頸部及び表情筋から計測したEMG信号に基づく代用発声システムを提案する.このシステムは,まずEMG信号から使用者の意図する語音を推定し,次にそれを連ねた語音列から意図する単語を推定するという2段階の処理を行う.語音,及び単語の推定には,統計構造を有するニューラルネットと隠れマルコフモデルを用いた.従来の電気式人工喉頭は,頸部に人工呼吸器を取り付けた際などに使用が困難となるが,本手法はそのような場合でも使用することが可能である.健常な男子大学生及び喉頭切除者の計5名による実験を行った結果,精度良く語音・単語を識別できることが示された.

Forty Type IIb or IV hyperlipidemic patients (serum triglyceride concentrations were higher than 150 mg/dl) were treated with fenofibrate (300 mg/day) for 12 weeks. Lipid profile and uric acid metabolism were evaluated before and after the treatment; the serum concentrations of total cholesterol and triglyceride respectively decreased from 224 ± 41.9 mg/dl to 199 ± 35.2 mg/dl and from 205 ± 71.7 mg/dl to 134 ± 67.5 mg/dl (p < 0.001). The uric acid concentrations in the serum also significantly decreased from 7.0 ± 1.58 mg/dl to 5.2 ± 1.57 mg/dl (p < 0.001). Fenofibrate treatment did not cause any change in the serum xanthine and hypoxanthine concentrations. Instead the urinary concentrations of uric acid decreased from 7.0 ± 1.58 mg/dl to 5.2 ± 1.57 mg/dl (p < 0.01), while the clearance ratio of uric acid and creatinin increased from 6.1 ± 2.56 to 9.9 ± 3.87 (p = 0.02) by the fenofibrate treatment. Fenofibrate decreases uric acid concentrations in the serum not as a result of inhibition of uric acid production but by increasing the urinary excretion of uric acid.

Nanosized patterns of tantalum oxide were fabricated on a tantalum substrate by applying a potential pulse utilizing current sensing atomic force microscopy (CSAFM). The dimensions of the dots were strongly dependent on the bias applied, scan rate, and potential pulse duration. By controlling these variables, the minimum size nanodots with full width at half maximum of 35 nm was achieved. Immediately after pattern formation, the electrical properties of the Ta oxide nanodots were measured using CSAFM. The charge transport at the CSAFM tip and the nanosized Ta oxide dot can be described by Poole–Frenkel type conduction. The relative dielectric constant of the nanosized Ta2O5 dots was calculated to be 17.8–24.3, showing that the quality of the oxide was high. In addition, by controlling the substrate bias applied, pulse duration, and tip scan speed, nanosized Ta oxide lines with the desired dimensions were prepared.

The objective of this paper is to give overviews of text mining or textual data mining in Japan from the practical aspects. Text mining is the technology utilized for analyzing large volumes of textual data applying various parameters for purpose of withdrawing useful knowledge and information. The essence of “Mining” is "the discovery of knowledge or information." And target of text mining is to objectively discover and extract knowledge, facts, and meaningful relationships from the text documents. This paper summarizes the related disciplines and application fields which are applied in text mining, and introduces features and application examples of text mining tools.

Up to now, the research on the automation of object-oriented analysis, especially extracting objectoriented design elements from the problem specification written in Japanese, has been continued in the Harada laboratory since 1993. As this first process, we have developed the semantic analysis system SAGE which could be practically useable both in the performance and in the accuracy. Given a dependency tree, where clauses constituting a sentence are related by dependency arcs, SAGE searches the EDR electronic dictionary, retrieves for any two clauses connected by a dependency arc the meaning of the principal word in each clause and the deep case between such two words, and assigns the probability of such meaning-case tuple. Then, SAGE constructs an interpretation tree by allocating such meaning-case tuple and its probability to each arc in the dependency tree. Next, SAGE searches for the allocation having the maximum of the overall evaluation value given by the sum of the probability of the allocated meaning and cases. Finally, SAGE converts the resulting interpretation tree into the set of semantic frames containing the information of each word and relations with other words. In developing the system, we achieved speed-up of the construction of the interpretation tree by reducing the search space with pruning useless meaning-case tuples and by using the branch and bound method. Moreover the accuracy improvement of the analysis was achieved by applying the following four methods: (A)in constructing the interpretation tree, assigning 0 probability to all the combination of word meanings with which there are no “case” information in the concept description dictionary, (B)using the experimental rules to presume the deep cases from the surface cases to each dependency between verb clauses, (C)improving the fitness of the sentences retrieved from corpus by using part of speech, and (D)decreasing the number of meaning candidates by using reading information. As a result, the average interpretation construction time of one sentence with nine clauses or less was 2 seconds on a PC with the Pentium III processor using 320MB memory. The correct answer rate of the meaning was 82.1%, and that of the case was 77.8%.

From at least 1976 until his exposure by the media in November 2000, amateur archaeologist Shinichi Fujimura planted artifacts at over 180 Paleolithic ‘sites’ in Miyagi Prefecture and other parts of eastern Japan. As a result of this hoax, the existence of an Early Paleolithic stretching back more than half a million years became widely accepted in Japan. Fujimura perpetrated one of the biggest archaeological hoaxes of the 20th century and his actions have important implications for the way archaeological research is conducted in Japan and beyond. This article explores the sociopolitical background to the hoax and argues that the emphasis on archaeology as ‘people’s history’ in postwar Japan was one important factor in the favorable evaluations given to Fujimura’s discoveries. It is suggested that the lessons of the Fujimura hoax support the need for a stronger and more reflexive relationship between archaeology and anthropology in Japan.

Absolute pitch (AP) is the ability based on the fixed association between musical pitch and its verbal label. Experiments on AP identification demonstrated extreme accuracy of AP listeners in identifying pitch, influences of timbre and pitch range, and difference in accuracy between white-key notes and black-key notes. However, contrary to the common belief that AP is a component of musical ability, it was found that AP listeners have difficulty in perceiving pitch relations in different pitch contexts, and in recognizing transposed melodies, as compared to listeners having no AP. These results suggest that AP is irrelevant and even disadvantageous to music. Systematic music training in early childhood seems effective for acquiring AP. Possible genetic contributions to AP are undeniable, but evidence for them is inconclusive. There are several AP-like phenomena that do not reach consciousness: absolute tonality, long-term memory of pitch of repeatedly heard tunes, specific patterns of pitch comparison in the tritone paradox, and fixed pitch levels in speech. Contrary to true AP observed as a pitch naming ability, the implicit AP phenomena are widespread among general population.

The inhabitants living in a specific region of Kizaki area in Kamisu-town, Ibaraki Prefecture exhibited uncommon clinical central nervous system symptoms. A graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrophotometer detected markedly elevated concentration of arsenic (4.5 ppm) in their drinking well water. Further investigation using HPLC, GC/MS and HPLC/ICP/MS demonstrated that the structures of the arsenic were bis(diphenylarsine)oxide (BDPAO), diphenylarsinic acid (DPAA) and phenylarsonic acid (PAA), compounds that can be derived from the chemical warfare agents, diphenylchloroarsine (DA) and diphenylcyanoarsine (DC). The predominant form of the arsenic compound in the well water was DPAA (maximum 15 ppm), so that it was calculated that the inhabitants ingested 11-30 mg of DPAA daily. This is the first report of inhabitants that were injured by drinking well water contaminated with organic arsenic compounds that were likely derived from chemical weapons.
