The DIPEx webpage created by researchers at Oxford University contains over 1,500 narratives of users of health services in the UK, which are presented in the form of text, audio and video files. Although the webpage gives only fragments of the original narratives given during the interview, it has become a quite powerful and highly-evaluated information tool for patients’ decision-making. Authors argue that segmented patient narratives can be useful in assisting patients to cope with the uncertainty in medicine and health care. Authors also report on the development of the Japanese version of DIPEx modules on breast cancer and prostate cancer.

The purpose of this paper is to explain paradoxical outcomes of peace operations. Previous research has suggested that there is a possibility of the escalation of armed conflicts as a consequences of peace operations. Although Morgenthau had suggested that collective security carries this danger, it has been still a problem to make theoretical explanation of such a paradox. I would like to reinforce my argument by submitting a theoretical model to explain the paradox from a realist perspective. This study concludes that the real cause of the paradox is not collective security, but the collective buck-passing, which is an attempt to manipulate the balance of power.

Massive radioactive cesium was released to the North Pacific Ocean by the accident of the TEPCO Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant from March 2011. Using the T/S "Oshoro-Maru" cruise, we started monitoring the concentration of radioactive cesium radioactive cesium(134Cs and 137Cs) in the North Pacific surface water from May 2011. Until December 2014, the samplings were carried out at 394 stations in the North Pacific Ocean including the Japan Sea and the Bering Sea. High concentration of radioactive cesium has been observed off Tohoku in 2011, and afterwards spread through the eastern side of the North Pacific by the Kuroshio Extension. In the most region, the radioactive cesium in the surface water reduced by less than the detection limit by the end of 2012. In order to clarify the spatiotemporal change of radioactive cesium in the ocean in future, the continuous monitoring by using the T/S "Oshoro-Maru" cruise be useful.
