タイトル: Estimating Health Expectancy in Japanese Communities Using Mortality Rate and Disability Prevalence著者: Hosokawa, Rikuya; Ojima, Toshiyuki; Myojin, Tomoya; Aida, Jun; Kondo, Katsunori; Kondo, Naoki抄録: INTRODUCTION: Although mortality and disability are known to be associated with health expectancy (LE), few studies have assessed the extent to which a reduction in their prevalence can extend a person's LE. Moreover, differences in this relationship based on gender have not been established. Thus, in this study, we constructed a regression model using the rate of mortality and prevalence of disability to predict LE in older adults (≥65 years) and assess the relationships between LE, mortality rate, and disability prevalence based on gender. METHODS: Data were collected from Japan's population registry and long-term insurance records (N = 344). Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the relationship between LE, mortality rate, and disability prevalence, stra ...

タイトル: Transport kinetics of protium and deuterium in titanium: Experiments and modeling著者: Yamazaki, Jun; Kobayashi, Chihiro; Nishi, Kengo; Tanabe, Katsuaki抄録: We conducted absorption experiments on Ti using hydrogen isotopes, protium and deuterium, to gain insights into the kinetics of hydrogen atoms, particularly across the Ti surface. Rather than relying on various surface pretreatments, we identified the initial temperature of Ti in vacuum as the determining factor in achieving a high absorption rate and content. Specifically, we found that the initial Ti temperatures of approximately 900 and 980 °C are optimal for protium and deuterium, respectively, likely due to sufficient removal of the native surface oxide on Ti. The dependence of the absorption rate and amount of hydrogen isotopes on the temperature during absorption was partially explained by the phase transformation and exothermicity of the hydrogenation reaction. Moreover, this dependence strongly indicate ...

タイトル: Reproductive Responses to Increased Shoot Density and Global Change Drivers in a Widespread Clonal Wetland Species, Schoenoplectus americanus著者: Kudoh, Aoi; Megonigal, J. Patrick; Langley, J. Adam; Noyce, Genevieve L.; Sakai, Toshiyuki; Whigham, Dennis F.抄録: The expansion of many wetland species is a function of both clonal propagation and sexual reproduction. The production of ramets through clonal propagation enables plants to move and occupy space near parent ramets, while seeds produced by sexual reproduction enable species to disperse and colonize open or disturbed sites both near and far from parents. The balance between clonal propagation and sexual reproduction is known to vary with plant density but few studies have focused on reproductive allocation with density changes in response to global climate change. Schoenoplectus americanus is a widespread clonal wetland species in North America and a dominant species in Chesapeake Bay brackish tidal wetlands. L ...

タイトル: Legionnaires' Disease Outbreak in Philadelphia and the 1976 United States Presidential Election著者: Sakamoto, Ryota抄録: In the summer of 1976, prior to the United States presidential election between Gerald Ford and Jimmy Carter, an outbreak of Legionnaires' disease occurred in Philadelphia. After an epidemiological survey, 221 people with pneumonia or similar symptoms were identified, 34 of whom died. The outbreak prompted the advancement of legislation to exempt companies that produced influenza vaccines from liability for damages, resulting in significant losses for the government. The outbreak was a major economic blow to the Bellevue Stratford Hotel, an iconic historical hotel in Philadelphia, which was forced to close 16 days after the election. Following the outbreak, media coverage was extensive, and there was frustration over the inability to determine the cause of the outbreak in Philadelphia. The critical factor was that the cause of the outbreak was not ...

タイトル: Notes on the Tocharian A Lexicon著者: Pan, Tao抄録: This paper offers detailed philological investigations of Toch. A śᵤkär, kār*, sākät and yusār based on parallel texts in Sanskrit, Chinese and Old Uyghur. By uncovering several cases of loan translations, the following results have been achieved: Toch. A śᵤkär probably means “power” (= Skt. bala-, OUygh. küč, Chin. lì “id.”); Toch. A kār* means “path, ground”; Toch. A sākät means “assembled, arrived” (= Skt. saṃnipatita- “id.”); Toch. A yusār means “rainy season” (= Skt. varṣa- “id.”, OUygh. yay “summer”). The present study is inspired by and in part responds to the Dictionary and Thesaurus of Tocharian A in 2023. A preliminary list of problematic entries is provided as addendum, including Toch. A āral*, A cwal, A karṇe, A tursko or “trusko”, A pᵤkäl, A porant*, A prakte, A miṣi, A ymatu, A lokalok, A Vacramukhe, A śu and A ṣoṣ.
