Objectives: Work ability is a crucial occupational health issue in health care settings where a high physical and psychosocial work capacity is required and a high risk of disabling injuries and illnesses is predictable. This study aims to examine the association between the work ability index (WAI) and individual characterizations, workload, fatigue, and diseases among intensive care units' (ICUs') nurses. Methods: The study sample included 214 nurses selected by a random sampling method from a target population consisting of 321 registered nurses working in eight ICUs. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to test the association between WAI scores and each of the independent variables. Results: Results of multivariate analysis revealed a strong and negative association between WAI scores and diseases (B=-5.82, 95% CI=-7.16, -4.48, P<0.001). Among the studied individual characterizations, body mass index (BMI) was significantly and inversely associated with WAI scores. A significant and negative association was also found between WAI scores and dimensions of MFI-20, such as general fatigue (B=-0.31, 95% CI=-0.53, -0.09, P=0.005) and physical fatigue (B=-0.44, 95% CI=-0.65, -0.23, P<0.001). From dimensions of workload, frustration (B=-0.04, 95% CI=-0.07, -0.02, P<0.001) and temporary demand (B=-0.04, 95% CI=-0.08, -0.0001, P=0.04) showed a negative and significant association with WAI scores, while performance showed a positive and significant association (B=0.04, 95% CI=0.01, 0.07, P=0.005). Conclusions: Based on the study findings, development of health care programs with the aim of setting up a healthy work environment characterized by a well-structured preventive attitude toward controlling diseases, and a well-designed organizational framework toward increasing the level of performance and motivation, reducing the level of fatigue, as well as reducing the workload, is necessary to promote work ability among ICUs' nurses.

Effects of pre-germinated brown rice (PGBR) on postprandial blood glucose and insulin concentrations were compared with brown rice (BR) and white rice (WR) in two studies. In the first study, we investigated the time course of postprandial blood glucose and insulin concentrations after ingesting 25% (W/V) glucose solution, PGBR, BR or WR in 19 healthy young subjects. In the second study, dose-dependent effect of PGBR on the time course of postprandial blood glucose concentrations was compared among 4 different mixtures of PGBR and WR in 13 healthy young subjects. They were solely PGBR, 2/3 PGBR (PGBR: WR=2: 1), 1/3 PGBR (PGBR: WR=1: 2) and solely WR. Each sample was studied on a different day. The samples were selected randomly by the subjects. All the rice samples contained 50g of available carbohydrates. The previous day the subjects ate the assigned dinner by 9:00 pm and then were allowed only water until the examination. The next morning, they ingested each test rice sample with 150ml of water in 5-10 min. Blood was collected into capillary tubes from finger at 0, 30, 60, 90 and 120 min after the ingestion. The incremental areas under the curve (IAUC) of blood glucose concentrations (IAUC-Glc) for 120 min after the administration of PGBR and BR were lower than those after WR. In contrast the IAUC-Glc of BR and PGBR were not different (Study 1). The higher the ratio of PGBR/WR, the lower the glycemic index became (Study 2). These results suggest that intake of PGBR instead of WR is effective for the control of postprandial blood glucose concentration without increasing the insulin secretion. J. Med.

<p>This article places public vocational schools (Shokugy<span style="text-decoration: overline;">o</span>-Gakk<span style="text-decoration: overline;">o</span>) for girls within the context of the history of women's education by analyzing the education of girls at Sano Higher Practical School for Girls (Sano K<span style="text-decoration: overline;">o</span>t<span style="text-decoration: overline;">o</span> Jissen Jogakk<span style="text-decoration: overline;">o</span>) in Osaka Prefecture.</p><p>In the rural areas of Osaka Prefecture during the 1930's, public vocational schools for girls were established as an alternative to public girls' high schools (K<span style="text-decoration: overline;">o</span>t<span style="text-decoration: overline;">o</span> Jogakk<span style="text-decoration: overline;">o</span>). In the 1940's, most of these vocational schools were converted into girls' high schools.

Some graduates of the vocational school married immediately after graduation, others were employed at department stores, train stations, or in other fields, while others continued to train in sewing as preparation for marriage. The students in vocational schools regarded the students of the girls' high schools with admiration and a sense of competitiveness. Students, their parents, and graduates wished for the vocational school to become a standard girls' high school.</p><p>In the 1930's, vocational schools were part of the increase in public secondary schools. They were training schools intended to promote the ideal of "Ry<span style="text-decoration: overline;">o</span>sai kenbo", as were girls' high schools. While the purpose of vocational and high schools were similar, vocational schools devoted more hours to sewing and held lower social status. Eventually vocational schools were promoted to girls' high schools.</p>

日本国民の1/3が何らかのアレルギーに罹患していることが知られている。アレルギーを引き起こす原因物質であるアレルゲンには様々のものがあり, その1種としてかびが挙げられる。かびに対しては環境基準を基に規制する必要があるが, 殆どのかびに関する“量一反応関係”が把握されていないため, 健康影響を基に室内かびに関する基準を制定することは難しいのが現状である。本報では, かびによる人の健康への影響, かびの健康リスクの概念とその概要を紹介した上で, 環境基準の制定方法とかびに関する基準の現状について述べる。
