Salt intake and related factors in healthy adults (second report) -Effects of health guidance intervention on the reduction of salt intake in the workplace
Vitamin D and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level
The changes in the serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) concentrations after daily 1000-IU vitamin D intake for 3 months (3-month-VD), 6 months (6-month-VD) and then 6-month cessation of vitamin D intake (6-month-VD cessation) were examined. The serum 25(OH)D levels in 11 male and 16 female subjects were 12.1 ± 3.5 ng / mL at baseline, increased to 27.1 ± 4.7 ng / mL at 3-month-VD, 28.5 ± 5.1 ng / mL at 6-month-VD and decreased to 16.4 ± 4.0 ng / mL at 6-month-VD cessation. The present study suggested that a vitamin D intake of 1000 IU / day is required to maintain the 25(OH) D concentration at 30 ng / mL or higher without vitamin D intoxication
Salt intake and related factors in healthy adults (third report) : Effective support for reducing the sodium intake
Calibration of the AKARI Far-Infrared Imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer
The Far-Infrared Surveyor (FIS) onboard the AKARI satellite has a
spectroscopic capability provided by a Fourier transform spectrometer
(FIS-FTS). FIS-FTS is the first space-borne imaging FTS dedicated to
far-infrared astronomical observations. We describe the calibration process of
the FIS-FTS and discuss its accuracy and reliability. The calibration is based
on the observational data of bright astronomical sources as well as two
instrumental sources. We have compared the FIS-FTS spectra with the spectra
obtained from the Long Wavelength Spectrometer (LWS) of the Infrared Space
Observatory (ISO) having a similar spectral coverage. The present calibration
method accurately reproduces the spectra of several solar system objects having
a reliable spectral model. Under this condition the relative uncertainty of the
calibration of the continuum is estimated to be 15% for SW, 10% for
70-85 cm^(-1) of LW, and 20% for 60-70 cm^(-1) of LW; and the absolute
uncertainty is estimated to be +35/-55% for SW, +35/-55% for 70-85 cm^(-1) of
LW, and +40/-60% for 60-70 cm^(-1) of LW. These values are confirmed by
comparison with theoretical models and previous observations by the ISO/LWS.Comment: 22 pages, 10 figure
