Abstract During the developmental stage, brain undergoes anatomic, functional, and metabolic changes necessary to support complex adaptive behavior of a mature individual. Estimation occurring in different regions would provide means relating various behavioral phenomena maturation‐specific structures, thereby providing useful information on structure‐function relationships both normal disease states. We used multichannel near‐infrared spectroscopy (MNIRS), new noninvasive imaging technique...
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has been used for measurement of cerebral hemoglobin (Hb) concentrations in neonates to study oxygenation and hemodynamics. We perform measurements by portable three-wavelength NIR time-resolved (TRS) a piglet hypoxia model with various degrees estimate the absorption coefficient (µa) reduced scattering (µ) head. Measurements absolute values µa at three wavelengths enable estimation Hb concentration oxygen saturation head (SO2). However, there is problem...
Factors affecting the intention of purchasing online have been investigated for many years. On other hand, question what keeps customers repurchasing through Internet has rarely examined. By expanding existing customer satisfaction/continuance model based on expectation-confirmation model, this study aims to provide a theoretical that can support technical, business, and consumer issues involved in repurchasing. The results an questionnaire 1,215 Japanese pointed out not only basic factors...
Abstract Clinical kernicterus in preterm infants has recently been reported Japan, diagnosed on the basis of clinical findings during neonatal and infancy periods. We investigated incidence <30 weeks gestational age (GA) based a nationwide survey conducted 233 certified educational facilities for neonatologists. The numbers admitted who died within 14 days after birth 2011, number subsequently developed kernicterus, were recorded. A total 2720 analyzed, representing 59% (2720/4623) all...
Abstract Background The main photochemical pathway in phototherapy for neonatal hyperbilirubinemia is the production and elimination (in bile or urine) of cyclobilirubin, which a structural photoisomer bilirubin, most efficiently produced by green light. Green light‐emitting diode ( LED ) phototherapy, however, has not been evaluated clinical setting because it recommended American Academy Pediatrics guidelines. We therefore compared efficacy blue patients with hyperbilirubinemia. Methods In...
Since Japanese firms have recently been forced to innovate their business models due several factors, such as global operations, e-business, and merger & acquisition, they are need flexible information systems adapt industry changes. Historically, the biggest challenge facing is "adaptation" any environment. The flexibility of create values has discussed for a long time one critical problems among technology (IT) communities. One potential solutions enterprise architecture, which first...
Anemia of prematurity commonly occurs in infants with very low birth weight; blood transfusion is an important treatment. However, there no clear evidence to support the criteria currently widely used, based on hemoglobin (bHb) and hematocrit indices. Previous studies showed that overtransfusion or a threshold for could induce complications neurologic sequelae, respectively. We hypothesized cerebral hemodynamic index may provide appropriate criterion determining need anemic preterm...
Abstract Therapeutic drug monitoring is generally unnecessary in caffeine treatment for apnea of prematurity, as serum concentrations preterm infants are normally markedly lower than those at which intoxication occurs. However, several studies have reported having developed toxicity. This retrospective observational study, conducted a tertiary center Kagawa, Japan, aimed to evaluate the correlation between maintenance dose and determine leading suggested toxic levels. We included 24...
Previous research examined how extrinsic and intrinsic factors influence customers to shop online. Conversely, the impact of these on customer retention in Internet shopping has not been examined. This study is one few attempts investigate perceived benefit effecting customers' continuance purchasing items through Internet. According an online questionnaire filled out by 1, 111 conduct a multiple regression analysis, benefits measured terms time money savings, social adjustment,...
Abstract Background Eltrombopag is a thrombopoietin receptor agonist used for the treatment of thrombocytopenic conditions. It can cause pH-dependent discoloration plasma/serum. potentially hepatotoxic. affect assessment hyperbilirubinemia because its (i) absorbance at ~450 nm (bilirubin), (ii) ~550 (diazo-bilirubin) and (iii) it yellowish eyes normal circulating bilirubin levels. Methods We collected 66 samples from patients on range eltrombopag dosages up to 150 mg daily. Bilirubin was...
A cyber security problem is an important application domain for systems resilience. The increase of malware, computer viruses, and intensive attacks are serious problems our information society. In this paper, we introduce a new presentation problem. Our model based on Multi-Objective Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (MO-DCOP) which fundamental that can formalize various applications related to multi-agent cooperation. MO-DCOP suitable modeling problem, since involve multiple...
Background We occasionally encounter increases in direct bilirubin value on reanalysis of the surplus serum collected past from a neonate with indirect hyperbilirubinemia. But details this phenomenon are unclear. evaluated change and relation photoisomer exposed to room light. Methods Surplus samples neonates hyperbilirubinemia were light for 24 h. The fraction assay was performed by oxidase method (Nescauto Aqua-auto Kainos reagent) high-performance liquid chromatography. Results Direct...
Abstract Photographs and images in sustainability reports can affect readers' impressions of a company. This study conducts an exploratory analysis to investigate the impact visual content on reporting identify corporate strategies. Using image recognition with deep learning technology, we analyse how 1025 global companies, publishing English, incorporate into their reports. The also identifies factors influencing selection utilisation, assessing based these factors' impact. Our findings...
Summary Background: Estimation of hemodynamics is important for critically ill infants. Pulse dye densitometry (PDD) using indocyanine green (ICG), which enables measurements circulating blood volume at the bedside, has recently been developed adults. Methods: We conducted a basic investigation to determine whether this method can be applied infants and measured in 25 whose gestational ages ranged from 24 40 weeks (median, 32 weeks). At first, validate accuracy measurements, arterial ICG...
