Pregnant and postpartum women are especially vulnerable to natural disasters. These suffer from increased risk of physical mental issues including pregnant related problems. Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda), which hit the Philippines affected a large number people caused devastating damages. During after typhoon, were forced live in particularly difficult circumstances. The purpose this study was determine concerns problems regarding public health needs coping mechanisms among during shortly...
The purpose of this study was to assess the factor structure and measurement invariance Coparenting Relationship Scale (CRS) across 10 countries based on seven-factor coparenting model (i.e., Agreement, Closeness, Exposure Conflict, Support, Endorsement Partner's Parenting; Division Labor) proposed by Feinberg (2003). results research from numerous have documented its foundational importance for parent mental health, family relationship quality, child development, psychopathology. Yet, a...
Quality of life, comfort, and wellbeing during pregnancy are essential for every country in the world. Pregnancy is considered a preparation period becoming mother. Maternal role development, including confidence satisfaction as mother, important transition to motherhood. Negative psychosocial affect, such increased anxiety distress, adversely influences childbirth experience childcare, which contributes postpartum depression. However, impact positive feelings on maternal development remains...
Abstract This cross‐sectional study explored the comfort and quality of life in hospitalized, preterm, pregnant women compared with outpatients, identified relationship between comfort, life, hospitalization. Two‐hundred‐and‐twenty‐one hospitalized who met inclusion criteria were recruited from obstetric units, 1015 outpatient units Japan. The questioned on six domains Japanese Short‐Form‐36 version 2 (bodily pain, general health, vitality, role emotional, social functioning, mental health)...
The induced uniaxial anisotropy field in thin permalloy and CoZrNb films was investigated. value of the H/sub k/ 77-81 at%Ni concentration found to decrease as film thickness decreased below 20 nm, even after annealing procedure a magnetic field. at 3 nm be nearly half that nm. A series amorphous showed qualitatively similar dependence N/sub k/. Moreover, reduction observed 77 K. On other hand, easy axis Ni/sub 79/Fe/sub 21/ thinner than switched direction by with perpendicular as-deposited...
During pregnancy, women experience various emotional changes. Previous research has investigated positive emotion influenced childbirth outcomes positively. This study explored the extent of which pregnant aware their own pregnancy life subjectively and variables related to changes thereof. was an adjunct Japan Environment Children's Study is a nationwide epidemiological identify impact environmental factors on health development children in Miyagi Prefecture. Data were collected at 12 weeks...
Maternal mental illnesses during early postpartum may be caused by lack of the coparenting relationship parents share and cooperate regarding child-rearing. This study clarifies association negative health mothers at one three months after childbirth. conducted a secondary analysis data from an intervention wherein 24 rearing their first child with cohabitant (husband/partner) participated. was evaluated using Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale to determine depressive symptoms...
Abstract Objectives Women working in the medical field may be at risk for pelvic floor dysfunction due to high physical activity levels leading increased abdominal pressure; however, actual situation remains unknown. This study aimed clarify prevalence of symptoms and its associated factors among Japanese women field. Methods A cross‐sectional was conducted female employees a public hospital Japan from July August 2020. Participants answered web‐based questionnaire. Three types related were...
Maternal psychosocial adaptation to pregnancy is significant task for women during pregnancy. Antepartum hospitalization often characterized by maternal anxiety, boredom, feelings of imprisonment, and loneliness. The purpose this study was explore hospitalized pregnant compared with such in low-risk from a reference population. This cross-sectional convenience samples high-risk mothers. carried out five hospitals two clinics between March December 2009 several areas Japan. Subjects were 189...
Having and raising children can be a source of joy for parents. However, the transition to parenthood is associated with certain degree strain stress, couple relationship quality often declines during transition. Coparenting, shared responsibility childrearing, benefits both parents an important aspect parenthood. In this quasi-experimental study, we aimed develop education program in Japan that focuses on coparenting among couples expecting their first child. Twenty-one healthy voluntarily...
We examined the experiences of a public health nurse (PHN) in rural area affected by Great East Japan Earthquake. used an ethnographic method to obtain in-depth information about her experiences, from which six themes were developed. The PHN risked life protect members community, but she remained anxious see own young children as soon possible. Nevertheless, was strongly committed helping community and continued work for them. suggest creating practical system allow PHNs safety their...
The purpose of the present study was to describe effective nursing care through evaluation a intervention that enhanced acceptance pregnancy and focused on comfortable experience for pregnant women.Thirty-two subjects who were expected have normal assigned into either or control group. consisted use diary four interviews, two which held in first trimester, one second third trimester. given recorded tapes field notes. data analyzed using qualitative content analysis method.As result analyzing...
Previous studies have proposed that pelvic misalignment may be associated with stress urinary incontinence through a decrease in the contractile function of floor muscles; however, this relationship remains unclear. This study aimed to clarify between low back pain, an indication misalignment, and at 3 months postpartum. We conducted cross-sectional women who gave birth full-term babies July 2008 2009. Stress was defined as leakage when coughing, sneezing, or exercising. Low pain ribs...
The induced uniaxial anisotropy field H/sub k/ in very thin films sandwiched by Ta or Cu layers was investigated. value of the Ta/Cu/Ni/sub 79/Fe/sub 21//Cu/Ta film decreases as thickness below 20 nm, even after an annealing procedure a magnetic field. This reduction is similar to that Ta/Ni/sub 21//Ta films, indicating independent surface energy and/or crystal structure seed layers. magnetostriction /spl lambda//sub p-p/ Ta/NiFe/Ta gradually increases decreases, which coincident with k/....
Abstract Aim To describe the characteristics of objectively measured physical activity (PA) during 2nd and 3rd trimesters pregnancy using a accelerometer. Methods This was longitudinal observational study wherein PA in pregnant women for seven consecutive days accelerometer (Silmee W10, TDK, Japan). Results A total 34 primiparous were examined. There no statistically significant difference amount pregnancy. Sub‐group analysis demonstrated that full‐time housewife group increased...
Abstract Objective: The presence of various menopausal symptoms could decrease work performance because symptom management strategies differ, and it is difficult to control all at work. aim this study was examine the relationship between number experienced in working women. Methods: An online cross-sectional conducted with 599 Japanese women aged 45 65 years. To represent performance, absolute presenteeism measured using version World Health Organization Work Performance Questionnaire short...

In a simulation of perpendicular recording media, the exchange coupling between adjacent cells was broken at random to provide domain wall pinning sites. The introduction such sites can improve signal/noise ratio strongly coupled media by reducing susceptibility stray fields and thus unwanted erasure recorded data.
The magnetic properties and recording performance of hard/soft-stacked media consisting a magnetically hard layer (9-10 nm) underneath very thin soft (2 with large saturation magnetization were investigated. Magnetic energy calculations revealed that reducing the strength interfacial exchange coupling between layers reduces remanence coercivity, Hr. Moreover, an increase in <Mssoft> significantly enhances Hr reduction. It is theoretically predicted grain volume (10 nm)/soft stacked having...
