Several authors have reported that disuse might not be a major factor of muscle wasting in hemiplegic patients with stroke. A number of published investigations have shown that pathological spontaneous activity can occur in electromyographic studies in upper motor neuron lesions. There have been some reports that the decrease of hemiplegic side M-potential reflects the drop of motor unit numbers. Most of them have estimated that pathological spontaneous activity in hemiplegic muscles might due to transsynaptic degeneration. The submaximal stimuli can evoke a sample of motor unit action potentials of S-MUAPs in the F-response entirely representative of the relative numbers of surface detected S-MUAPs of different sizes. The motor unit number estimation (MUNE) was investigated among the bilateral abductor pollicis brevis (APB) muscles in seven healthy normal controls and fifteen stroke patients with moderate-to-severe hemiplegia. The needle EMG was examined in hemiplegic side APB. The average S-MUAP on each APB muscle was calculated from a selected population of F-wave responses. The MUNE was calculated by dividing the negative peak amplitude measured from the average S-MUAP waveform into corresponding values measured from a maximum M-potential. There was no statistically difference between the both sides motor units number among normal subjects and this MUNE method also revealed the good reproducibility in them. The needle EMG revealed the spontaneous activity in hemiplegic APB muscles at 3-4 months after the onset. The motor unit number on the hemiplegic side was significantly lower than on the unaffected side (p<0.05, Mann-Whitney test) among stroke patients. About one year later, most stroke patients revealed no spontaneous activity by needle EMG but the motor unit decrement in hemiplegic side was also recognized by the MUNE method among them. The motor unit could decrease in the moderate-to-severe hemiplegic muscle due to the trans-synaptic degeneration secondary to the upper motor neuron lesion. Some investigations, however, reported that there was no significant difference in morphometrical anterior horn cell number between the affected and unaffected sides in strokes. The transsectional areas of anterior horn cells associated with the hemispheric lesional side were reported to be significantly decreased compared with those of the unaffected sides in patients and normal subjects. The motor units may remain morphometrically unchanged in their number but the functional motor units number in the hemiplegic side might decrease because the loss of trophic effect from the upper motor neurons could alter the functional state of anterior horn cell in the affected side. The investigation and therapy for the muscle wasting should be proceeded more for the rehabilitation in upper motor neuron lesions.

Traditional planning in the business environment is used to allocate and coordinate resources mainly on basis of company-internal data. Thereby, a general weakness is that macroeconomic changes, due to business cycles, are not taken into consideration and the chance to take advantage of the associated effects on the revenues of an individual enterprise is missed. Including a macroeconomic trend analysis in business planning fosters the objectivity to create a solid basis for a corporate decision-making process. This paper deals with the Economic Trend Outlook Model which allows to consider macroeconomic influences on the company-specific capacity planning. In doing so, a company can turn into a proactive organization that makes use of advanced trend information and improves the individual forecasting accuracy. Thus this paper describes the method behind this strategy and introduces a stepwise approach using the examples of two company cases.

A variety of Para sports-related activities, including events to experience Para sports, have been launched since the selection of Tokyo as the host city for the 2020 Paralympic Games.Previous Japanese research on Para sports-related experiences and their impact includes studies on changes in student awareness through classes at educational institutions, studies on changes in the awareness of those who engaged in specific Para sports, and studies that aim to identify able-bodied people’s subconscious attitudes toward and awareness about people with disabilities. These studies have shown that interaction with people with disabilities and experiences with Para sports have a positive impact on able-bodied people’s awareness about and attitudes toward people with disabilities. However, since the studies have a limited scope, they do not necessarily offer an overall picture of society. Therefore, research that does not limit its scope to a specific Para sport or to awareness and attitudes in psychological terms is required, and it should be conducted based on a consideration of what distinguishes Para sports from a broad perspective. This study aims to examine the relationship between Para sports and inclusion awareness through a nationwide, randomized online survey and to shed light on the impact of experiences with Para sports on inclusion awareness.The study first examines how the relationship between Para sports and inclusion awareness is understood by the government and various organizations that hold events involving Para sports experiences. Then, an online survey was conducted based on the hypothesis that engagement in Para sports has a positive impact on knowledge acquisition, awareness raising, actual behavior, and social image. The online survey showed that awareness about words related to an inclusive society was higher among respondents who had experiences with Para sports than those who did not, and that for most respondents their experiences of Para sports had involved watching Para sports on TV or in person. The survey also showed that respondents who had experiences with Para sports had a more positive image of Para sports and were more inclined to help people with disabilities than those who had no experiences with Para sports, although further verification is required due to a low level of connection among these aspects. On the other hand, the survey indicated that experiences with Para sports were not related to how respondents viewed disability (social model or individual model) or how they viewed today’s society and an ideal society.These findings lend some support to the working hypothesis presented in this study. The selection of Tokyo as the host city for the 2020 Paralympic Games has led to more opportunities to develop experiences with Para sports. Hopefully, these opportunities will continue to be provided even after the Paralympic Games and lead to the development of inclusion awareness among able-bodied people. This study predominantly focuses on analyzing the relationship between experiences with Para sports and inclusion awareness; therefore, future goals include exploring how interaction (or lack thereof) with people with disabilities and experiences other than engagement in Para sports impact inclusion awareness.

糖尿病治療の根幹である食事療法は,一般的にカロリー制限で指導されることが多いが,患者にはストレスが強く,そのコンプライアンスが問題となる.そこで,血糖値の上昇を最小限に抑えながら食事のQOLを向上させるための甘味品として,低糖質ケーキに着目した.今回は糖尿病患者で検討する前段階として,健常者を対象として低糖質ケーキが糖脂質指標に与える影響を同等カロリーの通常ケーキと比較した.低糖質ケーキでは通常ケーキと比較して食後の血糖値上昇が抑制され,インスリンの分泌刺激は弱かった.また,低糖質ケーキは中性脂肪や遊離脂肪酸に悪影響を与えず,一方で食後の満足度は通常ケーキと同等であった.今後糖尿病患者を対象にした検討においても低糖質ケーキの有望な結果が期待される.

2013年5月,コルシカ議会はフランス語とコルシカ語の併用公用語規定を採択した。本稿ではこの併用公用語概念とそれに伴うコルシカ島における地域的言語政策について詳述するものである。はじめにコルシカ島における二言語あるいは多言語状況について通史的に説明したのち,1970年代に「方言」から「地域語」としてのコルシカ語の概念が形成され,それと同時に二言語主義が掲げられた状況について言及する。次に,二言語主義と併用公用語の差異について,主にフランスの社会言語学者で併用公用語概念を初めて用いたジャン=バプチスト・マルセルジの論考を事例に説明する。最後に当初の併用公用語概念と今回規定として成立した言語政策としての併用公用語の差異について明らかにし,地名等の分野では二言語よりもコルシカ語の単一言語化,公務員の人事等におけるコルシカ語の優位がみられることを結論する。

Intention-based semantics (IBS) serves as the paradigm in the field of speaker meaning analysis. However, it has grappled with a well-known problem: the infinite regress of a speaker's intentions. Theorists such as Grice, Schiffer, Davis, and Green have tried to remedy the situation; however, no one has found any solutions until now. The present paper claims that the inability of IBS theorists to resolve the regress problem may be attributed to the conflict between two basic assumptions that they espouse: representationalism and the transparency of speaker meaning. When both are adopted alongside each other, as the current paper shows, the regress problem immediately emerges. It follows, then, that it would be prudent to reject IBS to sufficiently analyze speaker meaning.

ニュートリノは基本粒子の中で最も捉えどころのない粒子である。その存在は比較的早く1930年代初頭にはほぼ受け入れられたが,存在が確証されるまでは四半世紀を要した。ニュートリノが質量を持つか否かと言う基本の基本が確定したのは更に40年後。その一方でこの謎の多い粒子は,素粒子論や天体核物理学のあらゆる局面に顔を出し,その発展の狂言回しの役割を演じて存在感を増し続けてきた。ニュートリノを遮るには鉛板にして数光年の厚さが必要だが,この物質との関わり(相互作用)が超絶的に弱いという性質が逆に原子炉運転遠隔監視への応用の道も開く。現在も謎の多いこの粒子を追って十指に余る大型実験が進行中であるが,それぞれ奇抜とも言えるユニークなアイデアが光る。

The IP (Industrial Platform) system developed by IHI have made possible the speedy and economical construction of plants even in undeveloped areas of the world far from industrialized zones and lacking infrastructures.This paper presents the application results of the IP system applied to the construction of a pulp plant.The plant, having a designed production capacity of 750 t/d bleached kraft pulp, consists of a pulp manufacturing process plant and a power/chemical recovery plant, each of which was constructed in the configuration of a huge floating platform.This unique IP system pulp plant was towed over 25, 000km by ocean and river routes on a three-month voyage from Japan to the plant site of the Amazon of Brazil where, after being grounded and installed permanently, it has been put into commercial operation for producing pulp for export.
