褥瘡予防マットの圧分散機能を有効にするベッドメーキングの開発: シーツの力学評価
金沢大学保健学系本年度は、シーツの張りによる体圧分散寝具の圧分散への影響を検証する実験を行い、コーナー処理をしない法が、コーナー処理法よりも、圧分散能力が高い結果であったこと、シーツなしは、コーナー処理法、処理をしない法より圧分散に優れていたことより、シーツ自体が体圧分散寝具本来の圧再分配機能を妨げていることを示唆した。また、コーナー処理によりハンモック現象が生じ圧再分配に影響していることも示唆された。以上より、コーナー処理をせずに固定する方法が、骨突出部位上の圧再分配に効果的であることが考えられた。次に、シーツの張りを測定する実験を実施した。ベッドメーキング後、シーツをベッドサイドに一方のみを固定し、反対側の再度からシーツを引き、その力と距離で張りを測定した。また、ベッドメーキングを行った際に、モデルに荷重をかけることによってどれだけシーツに張力がかかるかを測定した。コーナー処理をしたもの、しないものでシーツ上から、モデルを載せ荷重を印加し、シーツにかかる引っ張りの力を測定した。コーナー処理が結ぶ、処理なしより力が減少傾向にあった。しかし、これらの方法では測定の再現性が低いと考えられた。今後、シーツの四方にセンサーを取り付け全ての方向にかかる力を測定していく予定である。また、モデルの直接センサーを貼付し、シーツを張った時の力を測定していく予定である。さらに、ハンモック現象と言われるシーツの張力をそれぞれの素材を用いて測定し、骨突出部上への圧分散に影響しない、ベッドメーキングの方法と素材を選択し看護基礎技術の発展となるケアを考案していく予定である。研究課題/領域番号:21659495, 研究期間(年度):2009 – 2010出典:研究課題「褥瘡予防マットの圧分散機能を有効にするベッドメーキングの開発: シーツの力学評価」課題番号21659495(KAKEN:科学研究費助成事業データベース(国立情報学研究所)) (https://kaken.nii.ac.jp/ja/grant/KAKENHI-PROJECT-21659495/)を加工して作

Orientador: Pedro Jose Steiner NetoMonografia(Especialização) - Universidade Federal do Paraná,Setor de Ciências Sociais Aplicadas, Curso de Especialização em Gestão EmpresarialResumo: Este trabalho tem o objetivo de apresentar e avaliar a comunicação empresarial interna da agência Bacacheri, um ponto de venda (PV) da empresa Caixa Econômica Federal (CEF). O trabalho foi divido em 3 principais partes: na primeira parte foi realizada uma recapitulação teórica do conceito de comunicação empresarial e a sua utilização como ferramenta de gestão e motivação; seguida da apresentação da Caixa Econômica, em especial da agência Bacacheri e seus instrumentos de comunicação interna utilizados; e finalizando com a apresentação de algumas considerações dos funcionários da agência acerca do tema
The OVAL experiment: A new experiment to measure vacuum magnetic birefringence using high repetition pulsed magnets
A new experiment to measure vacuum magnetic birefringence (VMB), the OVAL
experiment, is reported. We developed an original pulsed magnet that has a high
repetition rate and applies the strongest magnetic field among VMB experiments.
The vibration isolation design and feedback system enable the direct
combination of the magnet with a Fabry-P\'erot cavity. To ensure the searching
potential, a calibration measurement with dilute nitrogen gas and a prototype
search for vacuum magnetic birefringence are performed. Based on the results, a
strategy to observe vacuum magnetic birefringence is reported.Comment: 9 pages, 11 figure

A case of eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis associated with optic neuropathy
We report a case of eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (ECRS) associated with optic neuropathy. The visual acuity in the right eye was suddenly reduced to no light perception on awakening in the morning. Fundus examination of both eyes on the same day showed no remarkable changes. Emergency computed tomography showed pan-sinusitis bilaterally and a partial defect of the sphenoid bone on the right side. From the clinical findings, the case was diagnosed as optic neuropathy associated with chronic sinusitis. Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) was performed on the same day, and all of the major sinuses were found to be filled with highly viscous fluid. Part of the optic canal had a defect probably due to inflammatory invasion from the adjacent sphenoid bone. Steroid therapy was started immediately postoperatively. Histopathological examination of excised polyps showed that numerous eosinophils had invaded the polyps but no hyphae were present. The patient reported that he had bronchial asthma and had had nasal polypectomy. Six months after the ESS and steroid therapy, the patient had a recurrence of the sinusitis. At that time, laboratory examination showed an elevation of total IgE and eosinophil numbers. From the clinical findings and course, this case was diagnosed as ECRS accompanied by optic neuropathy. Although ECRS rarely has ocular complications, the inflammation can spread and the optic nerve can be affected
Effects of Activity Participation of the Elderly on Quality of Life
Quality of life (QOL) and personality were examined in 2 groups of elderly subjects with and without activity participation (AP). A survey was conducted with 321 elderly subjects over 65 years of age using a 24-item questionnaire regarding personality and depressive inclination and the visual analogue scale-happiness to measure QOL. The AP group was involved in 5 types of activity: community center activity course, learning and lecture participation, club activity, elderly manpower service activity and other activities. The QOL of the AP group was significantly higher than the non-AP group as expected. The perceptual difference between the 2 groups obtained by the correspondence and cluster analyses was that although the elderly of the AP group were satisfied and not bored with their current life, this trend was not clear for the non-AP group. Among the 5 activity types, other activities, characterized as activities adhered to by participants over a long period, showed the highest QOL compared with the 4 other types. In conclusion, the AP of the elderly should be encouraged, and continuing AP might be an important factor in improving QOL of the elderly
Association of cognitive performance with interleukin-6 receptor Asp358Ala polymorphism in healthy adults
Wechsler adult intelligence scale-revised was performed in 576 healthy adults to examine whether a functional polymorphism (Asp358Ala) of the IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) gene is associated with cognitive performance. Verbal intelligence quotient in Asp homozygotes was significantly higher compared to Ala carriers (P = 0.005). Compared to Ala carriers, Asp homozygotes performed better in the verbal subtests requiring long-term memory stores. Elevated IL-6 and soluble IL-6R levels in Ala carriers may have negative impact on acquiring verbal cognitive ability requiring long-term memory.ArticleJOURNAL OF NEURAL TRANSMISSION. 119(3):313-318 (2012)journal articl
