本学入学者の体力に及ぼす体育実技の影響について

本学の第1期生及び第2期生に対し,2回目の体育実技時に5種類の体力測定を実施し,30時間の体育実時終了後に同様の体力測定を実施し,その変化を測定した。その結果,第1期生及び第2期生の全測定種目で体力の向上を示した。しかし,大学1年生の全国平均に比較すると,敏捷性を除き,低値を示したことから体育実技以外にも定期的にトレーニングできるような環境整備が重要であると考える。We reseached volume of changing physical fitness of our freshman. And it was measured five factors of physical fitness. After finishing physical education, all factors were graded. But this results were lowered national average of same ages

Rupture and Rhythm: A Phenomenology of National Experiences

This article investigates how people make sense of ruptures in the flow of everyday life as they enter new experiential domains. Shifts in being-in-time create breaks in the natural attitude that offer the opportunity to register national—or, for example, religious, gender, or class—experiences. People interpret ruptures in perception and proprioception by drawing connections with domains in which similar or contrasting kinds of disruption are evident. Normalizing the transition, rhythm—as both cadence and overall flow—helps people adjust to new circumstances, align action, and smooth subsequent ruptures. Based on extensive qualitative fieldwork, I examine the specific case of how novice and experienced tea ceremony practitioners in Japan move into, interpret, and normalize action within tea spaces

Adenine phosphoribosyltransferase部分欠損による2, 8-dihydroxyadenine結石症例

Inherited metabolic diseases resulting in urolithiasis secondary to urinary excretion of insoluble substances are rare but often present as urinary obstruction of renal insufficiency. We herein report a case of partial adenine phosphoribosyltransferase deficiency associated with 2, 8-dihydroxyadenine urolithiasis. In family members the propositus and his younger brother are homozygotes for defective APRT genes, and who exhibits the type II phenotype designated APRT*J (Japanese type)

Home‐based cardiac rehabilitation using information and communication technology for heart failure patients with frailty

Abstract Aims Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is an evidence‐based, secondary preventive strategy that improves mortality and morbidity rates in patients with heart failure (HF). However, the implementation and continuation of CR remains unsatisfactory, particularly for outpatients with physical frailty. This study investigated the efficacy and safety of a comprehensive home‐based cardiac rehabilitation (HBCR) programme that combines patient education, exercise guidance, and nutritional guidance using information and communication technology (ICT). Methods and results This study was a single‐centre, open‐label, randomized, controlled trial. Between April 2020 and November 2020, 30 outpatients with chronic HF (New York Heart Association II–III) and physical frailty were enrolled. The control group (n = 15) continued with standard care, while the HBCR group (n = 15) also received comprehensive, individualized CR, including ICT‐based exercise and nutrition guidance using ICT via a Fitbit® device for 3 months. The CR team communicated with each patient in HBCR group once a week via the application messaging tool and planned the training frequency and intensity of training individually for the next week according to each patient's symptoms and recorded pulse data during exercise. Dietitians conducted a nutritional assessment and then provided individual nutritional advice using the picture‐posting function of the application. The primary outcome was the change in the 6 min walking distance (6MWD). The participants' mean age was 63.7 ± 10.1 years, 53% were male, and 87% had non‐ischaemic heart disease. The observed change in the 6MWD was significantly greater in the HBCR group (52.1 ± 43.9 m vs. −4.3 ± 38.8 m; P < 0.001) at a 73% of adherence rate. There was no significant change in adverse events in either group. Conclusions Our comprehensive HBCR programme using ICT for HF patients with physical frailty improved exercise tolerance and improved lower extremity muscle strength in our sample, suggesting management with individualized ICT‐based programmes as a safe and effective approach. Considering the increasing number of HF patients with frailty worldwide, our approach provides an efficient method to keep patients engaged in physical activity in their daily life
