京都府歯科医師会による口腔サポートセンター事業は歯科の併設されていない病院、施設へ歯科チームを派遣し、病院、施設、在宅間の継続した歯科治療、口腔ケアを目的に設立、当院でも2008年より介入が開始された。当院での口腔サポートセンターの活動状況と看護師への意識調査を行ったので報告する。口腔サポートセンターへの依頼は2012年4月現在250名、平均年齢は79.5歳、科に片寄りなく利用されていた。月平均利用者数も年々増加、その活動は院内で広く認知されていた。看護師からは口腔環境の改善、業務負担軽減で高く評価され、継続した介入をほぼ全員が希望した。しかし、退院後の継続利用は10%程度に留まり、院内での連携の問題や退院後の継続利用への理解等の課題も浮き彫りになった。口腔サポートセンターは、院内での栄養サポートチーム (Nutrition support team; 以下、NSTと略) 活動にとって有用な活動であり、今後、栄養を介した地域連携の核となる可能性があると考えられる。

This paper aims to determine the nature of entrepreneur behavior, business creation, and transformation of software companies in Dalian City through case studies.Four companies that were launched in the 2000s were studied. These companies' businesses initially involved labor intensive processes of offshore software development for the Japanese market. However, they faced the challenge of business transformation after the world financial crisis. Their concrete agenda included foray into high-grade processes, diversification of products and services, and exploitation of the Chinese market.All four companies tried to transform themselves by creating a unique advantage. The development of such an advantage was a focal point for the software companies to transform their business structure that heavily relied on labor intensive offshore development. The acquisition of high-grade human resources was an important factor for gaining this advantage.In the field of offshore development for the Japanese market, cross-border cooperation between processes was necessary to move into high-grade processes. The “on-off site” hypothesis was valid, while having Bridge System Engineer (BSE) in the company was not a prerequisite.Differences were observed across the four case studies. In China, Japan-affiliated companies approached other Japan-affiliated companies, while Chinese companies approached other Chinese companies. Moreover, the disparity of resource availability for transformation was large between big companies and small- and medium-sized companies. As a result, a difference was observed in the strategy employed by the companies for transformation, especially in personnel management in the face of high liquidity in the labor market in China.

Fossilia Mastodi OSSIS, which is a skeletal fossil of a Mastodon, an ancient mammal, has been found to have anxiolytic, sedative and anticonvulsant activities in Oriental medicine. In this study, in vivo characterization of the sedative activities of Fossilia Mastodi OSSIS was performed in order to obtain basic information for the development of a putative natural sedative. The 80% methanol extract of Fossilia Mastodi OSSIS given per os at a dose of 3 g/kg in mice showed anxiolysis, potentiation of pentobarbital sleeping time, reduced locomotor activity, and anticonvulsive activity. Fossilia elicited GABAA receptor-mediated anxiolysis. The data obtained suggest that the 80% methanol extract of Fossilia Mastodi OSSIS contains some biologically active principles with sedative activity.

The aim of the present study was to compare the impact on blood pressure and different metabolic parameters of a weight-loss program on obese dogs fed on a low-fat high-fibre diet and treated with and without mitratapide. The study sample consisted of 36 obese dogs, randomly assigned to a control group (n=17), which were fed on a low-fat high-fibre diet, and an intervention group (n=19), fed on the same diet and treated with mitratapide. Variables measured included body condition score, body weight, heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressures; total cholesterol, triglycerides and glucose levels; alanine aminotransferase and alkaline phosphatase activity, measured both at baseline (day 0) and at the end of the weight loss program (day 85). All the studied parameters had decreased in both groups at the end of the study; these being diastolic blood pressure, total cholesterol and alanine aminotransferase, significantly lower in dogs treated with mitratapide. The use of mitrapide in addition to low-fat high-fibre diet does not seem to offer any further useful effect in the loss of weight during the treatment of canine obesity. On the other hand, mitratapide seems to present certain beneficial effects on pathologies associated with obesity. These being mainly related to blood pressure, lipids and hepatic parameters.

A nationwide survey of Babesia gibsoni using Haemaphysalis longicornis collected from dogs and cats in Japan was conducted using molecular methods. A total of 1,341 H. longicornis, including 305 females, 14 males, 332 nymphs and 690 larvae (153 pools) from 44 prefectures were examined by B. gibsoni-targeted PCR. Partial sequence analysis revealed that 12 of 13 positive samples sequenced, including samples from Tottori, Hiroshima, Yamaguchi, Tokushima, Ehime and Oita prefectures (all in western Japan), were identical to B. gibsoni, and one sample from Kyoto Prefecture was most closely related to a Babesia species recently detected from feral raccoons in Hokkaido. H. longicornis is a candidate for transmission vector tick of the new Babesia species.

Cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) play important roles in cancer initiation and progression. CSCs have been isolated using several markers, but those for thyroid CSCs remain to be confirmed. We therefore conducted a comprehensive search for thyroid CSC markers. Expression of nine cell surface markers (CD13, CD15, CD24, CD44, CD90, CD117, CD133, CD166, and CD326) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity, which are CSC markers in various solid cancers, and the ability to form spheres in vitro and tumors in vivo were investigated using eight thyroid cancer cell lines (FRO, KTC1/2/3, TPC1, WRO, ACT1, and 8505C). Among these, four cell lines (FRO, KTC3, ACT1, and 8505C) possessed the both abilities; however, common markers indicative of CSCs were not observed. The pattern of ability to form spheres was completely matched to that of tumor formation, suggesting that our sphere assay is valuable for assessment of tumor-forming ability. Next, the cells were sorted using these markers and subjected to the sphere assay. In three cell lines (FRO, KTC3, and ACT1), ALDHpos cells showed higher sphere forming ability than ALDHneg cells but not in other cells. CD326hi also appeared to be a candidate marker only in FRO cells. However, these subpopulations did not follow a classical hierarchical model because ALDHneg and CD326low fractions also generated ALDHpos and CD326hi cells, respectively. These data suggest that ALDH activity is probably a major candidate marker to enrich thyroid CSCs but not universal; other markers such as CD326 that regulate different CSC properties may exist.

Recently, social capital has been known as an important factor of participation in regional resource management. Few empirical researches, however, have investigated social capital because it is difficult to grasp its nature. In addition, although the necessity of distinguishing between bonding and bridging social capital has been recognized, no detailed analysis has been conducted. This study aims to determine the associations between bonding and bridging social capital, and participation in regional resource management. The questionnaire survey was conducted in overall rural areas of three cities in northern Kyoto prefecture in 2006. The ratio of respondents was 30.5% (N = 9,954) and 3,568 samples which didn't include any missing values were used for analysis. Trust was focused on among social capital elements (trust, norm of reciprocity, and network). Community trust was adopted as bonding trust and generalized trust was adopted as bridging trust. 10 types of regional resource management were summarized in ‘General attitude of participation in resource management’ and ‘Agricultural characteristic of the resource’ by using categorical principal component analysis. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to determine the related factors of these two primal components. As a result, 1) bonding trust was more closely related to participation in regional resource management than bridging trust; 2)residents who closely relate to non-agricultural resource management had higher bonding trust than residents who closely relate to agricultural resource management; 3) the related factors of participation in regional resource management differs depending on the relations of residents with agriculture. The possibilities that the results of the analysis are positively biased cannot be denied. If the associations still remains after considering the positive bias, suggestions as follows can be led; It is important for the enhancement of participation in regional resource management 1) to maintain bonding social capital, 2) to build up bonding social capital of residents who closely relate to agricultural resource management along with to develop norm and institutional foundations of participation of residents who closely relate to non-agricultural resource management, and 3) to implement individualized approaches according to the associations of residents with agriculture.

The purpose of this research is to reveal the effects of values for irrigation pond on the resident's environment-conscious attitude and behavioral intention. A social psychology model was used to analyze the questionnaire data to quantify relationship among values, attitude and behavioral intention. The results indicated that (1) both agricultural and environmental values are greatly related to behavior for environmental conservation, (2) the agricultural value is directly related to the behavioral intention, and,(3) the environmental values is not only directly but indirectly related to the behavior. Our study suggested that instead of the agricultural values the environmental values can increase the behavior for conservation of irrigation pond as natural resources.

A 49-year-old woman complained of hearing loss and diminution of left radial arterial pulsation. She had been diagnosed with sudden deafness and treated with corticosteroids. Her audibility deteriorated again after the cessation of the therapy. Angiograms showed stenosis in the bilateral carotid arteries, the left vertebral artery, the left subclavian artery, and the pulmonary arteries. She was diagnosed with Takayasu’s arteritis. After steroid therapy was restarted, there were improvements in her audibility, radial arterial pulsation, and levels of inflammatory markers (erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein, and gamma-globulin), fibrinogen, interleukin-6, and RANTES (regulated on activation, normal T cell expressed and secreted).

総頚動脈閉塞症 (CCAO) に対し頚部頚動脈内膜剥離術 (CEA) を行うことはまれであるが, 今回, 大動脈炎症候群に合併したCCAOに対しCEAを施行し良好な結果を得ることができた1例を経験したので報告する. 症例は58歳女性で一過性脳虚血発作にて発症した. 大動脈炎症候群によるCCAOを認めたが, 神経放射線学的検討にて術前に閉塞部分はごく限局していることが診断しえたためCEAによる血行再建を行った. 本例のごとく閉塞が限局しその近位部および遠位部の開存が術前に確認できる場合には順行性の血行再建が行えるCEAは有効な方法である.
