When walking through a crowd, we have to pass through between people safely. How do we judge the passability of an aperture of this kind? Do we use the same information for an aperture composed of people as for one composed of other objects? Because studies on personal space have revealed that people have different sensitivities of personal space for approach from different directions (i.e., “anisotropy” of personal space) (Tanaka, 1973), we examined human aperture passability in terms of personal space in two experiments. In Experiment 1, the participants judged whether they could,without rotating their shoulder, pass between two stationary people or between two rectangular wooden posts. The two people to be passed through stood in four different orientations relative to one another and/or the participants; face-to-face, back-to-back,side-by-side facing towards or away from the participants. The wooden posts, which had the same width and depth as the two people, were set up in two directions (the wider sides facing each other vs. the narrower sides facing each other). In Experiment 2, the participants judged whether they could pass between two stationary people or between two human-shaped panels, which were set up in four different directions as in Experiment 1. In the analyses, we used the aperture-to-shoulder-width ratio (A/S) as an index of aperture “passability” judgment (Warren & Whang, 1987). We found that A/S was larger in the face-to-face condition than the other conditions. This is possibly because personal space is “anisotropic.” That is, when judging the passability of a space between two people, participants may consider the anisotropic personal space of each person. We also found that A/S was not significantly different across the board, implying that participants may have perceived a kind of “personal space” of the human-shaped objects, regardless of whether they were human or non-human.

Hypogammaglobulinemia is a reduction or absence of immunoglobulin, which may be congenital or associated with immunosuppressive therapy. In addition to infectious diseases, autoimmune diseases have also been reported in patients with hypogammaglobulinemia. A 26-year-old man with hypogammaglobulinemia had multiple joint pain and swelling with erosive changes in the proximal interphalangeal joint of the right middle finger on X-ray film, mimicking rheumatoid arthritis (RA). As polyarthritis remained after immunoglobulin replacement therapy and there was no finding indicating any infection at that time, a diagnosis of RA was made. Prednisolone and etanercept were started. However, his polyarthritis did not improve and he developed meningitis and massive brain ischemia. Finally, a diagnosis of disseminated Mycoplasma hominis infection was made. The differential diagnosis of polyarthritis in patients with hypogammaglobulinemia should strictly exclude Mycoplasma infection by culture with special media or longer anaerobic culture, and molecular methods for mycoplasma.

The civil construction in a particular community should be given a name that appropriately reflects the climate and culture of the area (expressed as “fudo”in Japanese) where they are constructed, which will add social and culturalvalue to it. From the view of Fudo Engineering, the namer may well be required to have all the knowledge of the fudo of the area, however, it is not easy to acquire the adequate knowledge. Here, we will propose to use our newly developed computerized consultation system, which uses an electronic encyclopedia, to get the fudo information effectively. When the user inputs a name of the place, this system searches all the descriptions about it from the encyclopedia. The descriptive text includes the nature environment, origin, history and so on. Then, it automatically extracts the nouns and the adjectives from the text, and makes a word list semantically related to the each extracted word. The word list helps the user choose a word or coin a new word conceptually related to the community as a name for the construction

After the Taisho enthronement, the buildings used for the ceremony were granted to various places in Kyoto.Upon research of receivers, it is found the buildings which still exist are in shrines and temples.This paper shows the analysis of how these buildings in shrines and temples were converted.By seeing the conversions in shrines and temples, we can see the surroundings of social situations of shrines and temples at the beginnings of Taisho period.Then economic situation of citizen was very bad and ideology for respecting the emperor's throne was not stabilized yet.Therefore, in shrines and temples asked for granted buildings used at the enthronement ceremony because of economical reasons rather than memorying the solemn ceremony.

Aims: This study aims to investigate the association between serum small dense low-density lipoprotein (sdLDL) cholesterol level and the development of coronary heart disease (CHD) in a Japanese community. Methods: A total of 3,080 participants without prior cardiovascular disease, aged 40 years or older, were followed up for 8 years. The participants were divided into the quartiles of serum sdLDL cholesterol levels. The risk estimates were computed using a Cox proportional hazards model. Results: During the follow-up period, 79 subjects developed CHD. Subjects in the highest quartile had a 5.41- fold (95% confidence interval, 2.12–13.82) higher risk of CHD than those in the lowest quartile after controlling for confounders. In the analysis classifying the participants into four groups according to the levels of serum sdLDL cholesterol and serum low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels, the risk of CHD almost doubled in subjects with sdLDL cholesterol of ≥ 32.9 mg/dL (median), regardless of serum LDL cholesterol levels, as compared with subjects with serum sdLDL cholesterol of <32.9 mg/dL and serum LDL cholesterol of <120.1 mg/dL (median). When serum sdLDL cholesterol levels were incorporated into a model with known cardiovascular risk factors, c-statistics was significantly increased (from 0.77 to 0.79; p=0.02), and the net reclassification improvement was also significant (0.40; p<0.001). Conclusions: The present findings suggest that the serum sdLDL cholesterol level is a relevant biomarker for the future development of CHD that offers benefit beyond the serum LDL cholesterol level and a possible therapeutic target to reduce the burden of CHD in a Japanese community.

The predictability of the Heavy Rain Event in July 2018 is examined by forecast experiments with an operational global atmospheric forecast model. Experiments from different initial times show that the overall rainfall distribution at the peak on 6 July can be predicted from 12 UTC, June 30, and later. In the successful forecasts, the track error of Typhoon Prapiroon against the best track is small. In the experiments with longer lead times, by contrast, the Baiu frontal zone has a northwared bias with less precipitation, and Prapiroon hardly develop and migrates westward. Poor track forecasts seem to be related to the limited vertical development of the vortex. Near surface equivalent potential tempeature and Q-vector analysis show that Prapiroon act to intensify the Baiu frontal zone. In conclusion, the correct track forecast is essential for Baiu frontogenesis and the formation of heavy precipitation in western Japan.

This study aimed to vertically scale the mathematics and Japanese academic ability tests of the Japan Child Panel Survey (JCPS) for elementary school first year students through junior high school third year students (grades 1-9 in the U.S.). We used an anchoring test design based on the item response theory. Two test samples were used: JCPS test participants (n = 3,916) and anchoring test participants (n = 7,210). After estimating the item parameters with a two-parameter logistic item response model, the equating coefficients were estimated with the Haebara method. The tests were scaled for elementary school fifth year (grade 5) in the end. The number of items included in the final analyses was 94 for mathematics and 108 for Japanese language studies. The mean level of estimated individual latent academic ability progressed according to grade level. Therefore, the JCPS tests appear to be able to capture the developmental changes of students from elementary school to junior high school. Future research should examine the relationship between children’s academic development and various factors, such as psychological traits or family environment, using the JCPS research data.

マダラヤンマはため池を主な生息場所とするヤンマ科のトンボであり、長野県上田市において天然記念物に指定されている。本種は、環境省ならびに長野県において準絶滅危惧種に指定されており、個体数の減少が危惧されている。本種の保全策を検討するために、上田市塩田平において本種の生息とため池および周辺の環境要因との関係性を調べた。その結果、マダラヤンマが生息するため池は生息が確認されなかったため池よりも池畔において抽水植物群落が存在する比率(池畔抽水植物率)が高かった。また、一般化線形モデルの解析結果から、本種の在 /不在に対して池畔抽水植物率に加え、ため池周辺の森林面積ならびにリンゴ果樹園面積が有意な正の効果を持つことが明らかとなった。これらの結果は、抽水植物を産卵基質として利用するという本種の繁殖生態と矛盾しないと思われた。また森林面積が関係していた理由は、本種が成熟のために一時的に森林に移動するためであると思われた。また、ため池に隣接する果樹園でのルートセンサスにおいて本種の生息が確認されたことから、果樹園は森林の代替地として利用されるのかもしれない。今回の調査結果から、マダラヤンマの保全を検討する上で、ため池内だけでなく周辺の環境要素にも配慮することが重要であると共に、本来の生息環境の保全や復元が困難な場合、農業生産という経済的な利益を伴った代替可能と思われる環境を創出することでも、一定の保全効果が得られる可能性があると考えられた。

The purpose of this study was to examine the reciprocal causal relationships between beliefs about learning and learning strategies, which, although suggested by previous research, have been lacking sufficient empirical evidence. Undergraduates (N=105) completed self-reported questionnaires to indicate beliefs about learning including strategy orientation, and learning strategy use consisted of meta-cognitive strategy, deep-processing strategy, and autonomous help-seeking. Cross-lagged structural equation analyses revealed cross-lagged effects between strategy orientation and learning strategies. Results suggest that beliefs about learning and learning strategy use have reciprocal causal relationships.

Udon (Japanese noodle) is one of the traditional foods in our country.The quality of the cooked noodle depends mainly on physical properties expressed koshi (hardness and springiness), articulation and smoothness.Therefore, the physical properties of Udons prepared under the various cooking conditions were determined by the breaking test, creep measurement and stress relaxation measurement using a rheometer and a handmade equipment. As a result of also doing the sensory evaluation, cooked Udon that was organoleptically judged to be the most delicious was soft one with a high breaking strength. By a scanning electron microscope, the gelatinization of starch near the surface of cooked Udon and the porous sponge-like structure were observed, whereas core part of the starch retained their original granular form with an adequate swelling. The cooked Udon surface seemed to form the network structure with the corrugation. This structure may be involved in the smoothness of the cooked Udon.

This commentary gave some additional findings and implications for “symmetrical bias (or bidirectional relation)” from a viewpoint of Contextual Behavioral Science, in particular, Relational Frame Theory and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. The given findings were related with a) the transformation of stimulus function through bidirectional relation in persons with specific phobia or mental disorder, b) the emergence or non-emergence of bidirectional relation influenced by baseline-training reversals or protocols in matching-to-sample procedure, and c) the emergence or non-emergence of bidirectional relation in infants or nonhuman subjects. Furthermore, the given implications were related with d) necessity of balancing between abduction and induction, particularly identifying and cumulating the manipulable variables inductively, e) prevention of confusing explanation with cause through symmetrical biases, and f) clarification of own ”purpose and value”, in pursuing symmetry bias or bidirectional relation as one of most fundamental processes in human cognition.

Practicing evidence-based medicine (EBM) is likely to gain importance for clinical pharmacists in the relatively near future in Japan. An educational program including research and the critical appraisal of literature was required for pharmacy students as of 2015. We organized a six-month practical EBM course for pharmacy students at Hyogo University of Health Sciences. To evaluate its effectiveness, students took a 10-question test after completing the course. The mean score of six students was 8.33±1.79 points. We also conducted a 1-day practical EBM workshop for pharmacists. Changes in knowledge and skills related to EBM were evaluated based on the responses to 10 questions. Knowledge and skills related to several variables improved significantly after the workshop (6.36 points before versus 9.09 points after the workshop; p=0.023). The results suggested that our EBM educational course is effective in improving EBM-related knowledge and skills of pharmacists and pharmacy students.
