A 11-year-old, 5.8-kg, male European cat was presented with a 4-month history of sneezing, nasal discharge, respiratory distress and bilateral conjunctivitis. Physical examination showed bilateral hemorrhagic mucopurulent nasal discharge and stertorous respiratory sounds. An irregular shaped mass involving the aboral portion of the right nasal cavity and sphenoidal sinus was identified by computed tomography. The mass was localized endoscopically in the medium meatus and an endoscopic-guided biopsy was performed. B-cell lymphoma was diagnosed by histopathological and immunochemistry exams. Functional endoscopic sinus surgery allowed to completely remove the tumor and restore a normal nasal flow. The cat showed no recurrence of the neoplasia for 15 months after the functional endoscopic sinus surgery.

Consumption of the berries of Morrow's Honeysuckle Lonicera morrowii has caused reddening of bird plumages in North America. We looked for examples of reddened feathers in Japanese birds, where the honeysuckle is native. We report the observation of legitimate reddened feathers in three Gray-headed Woodpeckers Picus canus, but are unsure whether the honeysuckle caused the color change in this instance. Morrow's Honeysuckle is uncommon in Japan, and birds rarely eat its berries. The availability of a wide variety of edible fruits may generally reduce the likelihood of avian plumage coloration being altered by shrubs such as the honeysuckle in Japan.

Objective With the advent of capsule endoscopy (CE) and double-balloon endoscopy (DBE), the diagnosis and treatment of obscure gastrointestinal bleeding (OGIB) have markedly progressed. However, rebleeding sometimes occurs and is difficult to diagnose and treat. The aim of the present study was to investigate the clinical features of OGIB and risk factors for rebleeding in our hospital. Methods A total of 195 patients who underwent CE and/or DBE for OGIB in our hospital from January 2009 to July 2016 were included in the present study. We analyzed 168 cases of small intestinal OGIB, after excluding 27 cases of extra small intestinal bleeding. The clinical characteristics and risk factors related to rebleeding were retrospectively studied. Results Among the 168 patients who were included in the analysis, 95 patients (56.5%) were male. The mean age was 64.5 years (range, 8 to 87 years). Hypertension (31.0%) was the most frequent comorbidity, followed by chronic kidney disease (19.0%). The final diagnoses were ulcerative lesions (n=50, 29.8%), vascular lesions (n=30, 17.9%), tumors (n=7, 4.2%), and diverticula (n=2, 1.2%). The bleeding source was undetermined in the remaining 79 cases (47.0%). Rebleeding was confirmed in 29 cases (17.3%). In a univariate analysis, chronic kidney disease, vascular lesions, and overt previous bleeding were significantly associated with the risk of rebleeding. A multivariate analysis showed that chronic kidney disease, vascular lesion, and overt previous bleeding were significantly associated with the risk of rebleeding. Conclusion Patients with OGIB with overt previous bleeding, vascular lesions, and/or chronic kidney disease had a higher risk of rebleeding.

β-Glucans are a class of polysaccharides consisting of D-glucose units that are polymerized primarily via the β-1,3 glycosidic bonds, in addition to the β-1,4 and/or β-1,6 bonds. They are present in various food products such as cereals, mushrooms, and seaweeds and are known for their numerous effects on the human body, depending on their structures, which are diverse. The major physicochemical properties of β-glucans include their antioxidant property, which is responsible for the scavenging of reactive oxygen species, and their role as dietary fiber for preventing the absorption of cholesterol, for promoting egestion, and for producing short-chain fatty acids in the intestine. Dietary β-glucans also exert immunostimulatory and antitumor effects by activation of cells of the mucosal immune system via β-glucan receptors, such as dectin-1. In this review, we elaborate upon the diversity of the structures and functions of β-glucans present in food, along with discussing their proposed mechanisms of action. In addition to the traditional β-glucan-containing foods, recent progress in the commercial mass cultivation and supply of an algal species, Euglena gracilis, as a food material is briefly described. Mass production has enabled consumption of paramylon, a Euglena-specific novel β-glucan source. The biological effects of paramylon are discussed and compared with those of other β-glucans.

Although the bioavailability of rare earth elements (REEs, including scandium, yttrium, and 15 lanthanides) has not yet been examined in detail, methane-oxidizing bacteria (methanotrophs) were recently shown to harbor specific types of methanol dehydrogenases (XoxF-MDHs) that contain lanthanides in their active site, whereas their well-characterized counterparts (MxaF-MDHs) were Ca2+-dependent. However, lanthanide dependency in methanotrophs has not been demonstrated, except in acidic environments in which the solubility of lanthanides is high. We herein report the isolation of a lanthanide-dependent methanotroph from a circumneutral environment in which lanthanides only slightly dissolved. Methanotrophs were enriched and isolated from pond sediment using mineral medium supplemented with CaCl2 or REE chlorides. A methanotroph isolated from the cerium (Ce) chloride-supplemented culture, Methylosinus sp. strain Ce-a6, was clearly dependent on lanthanide. Strain Ce-a6 only required approximately 30 nM lanthanide chloride for its optimal growth and exhibited the ability to utilize insoluble lanthanide oxides, which may enable survival in circumneutral environments. Genome and gene expression analyses revealed that strain Ce-a6 lost the ability to produce functional MxaF-MDH, and this may have been due to a large-scale deletion around the mxa gene cluster. The present results provide evidence for lanthanide dependency as a novel survival strategy by methanotrophs in circumneutral environments.

This paper explores marriage expectations and conflicts of highly-educated single women by focusing on the relation between marriage and other life events.  Through the interviews of 31 highly educated single women living in Shimane Prefecture, Tokyo and those who moved from the countryside to Tokyo, the following two points are revealed. (1) The marriage expectations and conflicts are influenced by incomes. Regular employees want to have double income after getting married. Low-income interviewees from Shimane Prefecture had strong expectations of their future marriage partner. But they also want to work part-time to support the family after getting married. Among the high-income groups from Tokyo, some of them think there is no need to get married. Some others want to get married because they had been fully satisfied with their career. Some others cannot see the prospect of work and want to give up by getting married. However, male partners would not like to get married with high-income women. (2) The marriage expectations and conflicts are influenced by the living area. Interviewees who are living in their hometown want to get married in the same place. They hope to receive some support from their parents and continue their career afterward. Those who moved from the countryside to Tokyo succeeded in their career. But not having any support from their parents may influence the possibility of them carrying on working.  As a result, the de-standardization of the post-adolescence transition has been found in the high-income and low-income groups. The rest are expecting a standardized marriage and do not have so much expectations and conflicts.

“Karo-Jisatsu” (suicide induced by overwork) has often been connected to criticisms of Japanese society for its self-sacrificing labor culture and merciless economics. This argument merely repeats the legal and critical discourse of “Karo-Jisatsu” and voids the legal fiction of individuals with a responsibility to be critical of society. Moreover, at the level of practice, neither the cancelling of the fiction nor the issue of social criticism has been pursued. Contrary to the previous seemingly “sociological” explanations, our society neither operates strictly nor abandons easily the modern fiction of “intention”. The sociology of suicide should illuminate the various aspects of the fiction in our society.

良好な景観や居住環境を維持・保全するため、近年、パチンコ店の立地に反対する住民運動が発生している。本研究は、阪神間の都市を対象に、特に芦屋市を中心として、自治体条例に基づくパチンコ店の立地規制の枠組と内容を明らかにし、他の市町村におけるパチンコ店の立地規制の検討に示唆を得ることを目的とする。パチンコ店は、特定の用途地域を禁止区域に指定することと、特定施設から一定距離内の範囲を禁止区域に指定することによって規制されており、それらは風営法、建築基準法・都市計画法による規制のほか、自主条例によって定められている。芦屋市においては、さらに地区計画を用いることによって市全域でパチンコ店を規制していることが明らかとなった。パチンコ店の立地が望ましくない地域においては、これらを組み合わせることによって、パチンコ店を事前に規制することが望まれる。
