Individuals with dementia often experience poor quality of life (QOL) due to behavioral and psychological symptoms (BPSD). Music therapy can reduce BPSD, but most studies have focused on patients mild moderate dementia. We hypothesized that music intervention would beneficial effects compared a no-music control condition, interactive stronger than passive intervention.Thirty-nine individuals severe Alzheimer's disease were randomly blindly assigned two groups (passive or interactive) Control...
Facile H2 heterolysis was found to be mediated by coordinatively unsaturated Cp*Ir and Cp*Rh thiolate complexes. The reaction of iridium complex is reversible, the formation an intermediary Ir-H/thiol detected. reversible conversion between complex+H2 hydride complex+thiol provides intriguing functional model [NiFe] hydrogenase.
The sudden eruption and tragedy of Mt. Ontake in 2014, a volcano located central Japan, showed the fact that volcanic is event with uncertainty, it important to let citizen be aware such uncertainty. To find measures raise citizen’s disaster awareness, this study focuses on risk communication between citizens observatories, which are attached universities. It examines role focusing activities Sakurajima Volcano Research Center, monitors Sakurajima, one most active volcanoes suggests...
The Non-Government Organizations (NGOs) and Non-Profit (NPOs) contributed remarkably to emergency relief activities during the Great East Japan Earthquake. NGOs/NPOs were successful in coordinating with government, private companies, Council of Social Welfare other provide substantial assistance disaster survivors. rise providing was a new phenomenon Japan. This article attempts analyze reason behind such rise.
This paper aims to determine the critical factors associated with life recovery for disaster victims. Huge disasters undoubtedly impact and change lives. Life is a subjective issue that differs from social values, living conditions, loss, etc. Although importance of has been previously addressed, international assistance victims in disaster-affected areas continues be directed toward conventional needs such as housing reconstruction livelihood development, often failing fully consider...
Coordinatively unsaturated rhodium and iridium complexes bearing a bulky thiolate ligand, [Cp*M(SDmp)](BArF4) (2a, M = Rh; 2b, Ir; Cp* η5-C5Me5; Dmp 2,6-(mesityl)2C6H3; ArF 3,5-(CF3)2C6H3) were synthesized from the reactions of [Cp*MCl]2(μ-Cl)2 with LiSDmp NaBArF4. The metal centers in 2a 2b weakly interact ipso-carbon one mesityl groups SDmp while dissociates coordination sphere donor ligands. Treatment or 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) led to formation...
Abstract Objective To investigate the association between oral health management (OHM) by dental hygienists and occurrence of pneumonia, determine effectiveness OHM in pneumonia prevention. Background In long‐term care facilities Japan, need for professional is increasing with an increase number severely debilitated residents. Materials methods A 1‐year prospective multicentre cohort study was conducted using data from 504 residents (63 men; mean age: 87.4 ± 7.8 years) Japanese facilities....
The conductivity enhancement in polydiacetylene (PDA) crystals due to chemical doping and ion implantation was measured analyzed relation their spin concentration photocurrent decay based on the structural optical information obtained through infrared visible reflectivity spectra. A jump observed upon slight increase of at low levels chemically doped PDAs, suggesting formation spinless carriers as trans-polyacetylene poly(p-phenylene). In contrast, ion-implanted samples, a great difference...
This paper presents a three-phase variable inductor for reactive power control in an electric system. The is constructed with three orthogonal-cores, and controlled by simple dc-dc converter. In order to reduce the harmonic currents of inductor, we made partial gap orthogonal-core. trial 100 kVA demonstrates that can be put practical use 6.6 kV ac distribution
This study analyzes the effectiveness of a disaster management plan and problems encountered in its implementation, focusing on patterns interaction between government society terms governance. Scholars socio-political science point out that there has been shift balance society, from public sector to private as different sectors interact solve problems. illustrates factors influence by examining formulation implementation process an evacuation case volcanic eruption Mount Shindake...

Abstract Molecular size dependence in third order optical susceptibility χ(3) for evaporated tin-phthalocyanine thin film was examined by methods of a scanning electron microscope technique (SEM) and an harmonic generation (THG) Maker-fringe technique. Evaporated molecular influenced greatly the values χ(3). The thicker grew, greater were. were with increasing orientation OA= A⊥/(A⊥+AII), whose preferential direction parallel to major axis microcrystals.
In GAMMA 10 two types of low frequency plasma fluctuations have been observed in the central cell by several diagnostics. One which is electron drift mode rotating azimuthally direction diamagnetic rotation during ion cyclotron range heating (ICH). Recently a new interferometer has installed mid-plane west anchor order to investigate density and cell. By using interferometer, line-integrated are measured compared obtained conventional systems. Density around kHz both cells ICH period they...
In order to determine the magnitude and position of plasma current in a long pulsed tokamak such as International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), it is urged establish reliable method which free from zero-level drift integrator well radiation damage for steady-state magnetic field measurement. For this purpose, we have developed hybrid system, combination conventional probe measurement fast varying rotating coil that slowly field. The energized by an air turbine avoid...
This article investigates how historical disaster memories are formed and transferred over time, by focusing on memory sites of two communities in Japan, which were heavily damaged due to the North Tajima Earthquake May 23, 1925. earthquake occurred ninety-five years ago, however, people have continued transferring experiences. By examining process formulating memory, study reveals that not only because existence sites, but also there is a system communicate these sites. Furthermore, become...
The 2014 Ontake eruption and the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake resulted in some revision of government measures for disaster prevention. role residents prevention is increasing. effectiveness fusing tourism with education system confirmed volcanic areas. This paper focuses on background to rapid evacuation during 2015 Kuchinoerabujima volcano as a case study focusing action daily awareness activity. shows that it important enhance relationships not only among experts, local government,...
