Anomalous momentum dependence of the multiband electronic structure of FeSe_1-xTe_x superconductors induced by atomic disorder

When periodicity of crystal is disturbed by atomic disorder, its electronic state becomes inhomogeneous and band dispersion is obscured. In case of Fe-based superconductors, disorder of chalcogen/pnictogen height causes disorder of Fe 3d level splitting. Here, we report an angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy study on FeSe_1-xTe_x with the chalcogen height disorder, showing that the disorder affects the Fe 3d band dispersions in an orbital-selective way instead of simple obscuring effect. The reverse of the Fe 3d level splitting due to the chalcogen height difference causes the splitting of the hole band with Fe 3d x^2-y^2 character around the Gamma point.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure

Evaluation of complex physical therapy for lymphedema of the unilateral lower limbs

We evaluated the effectiveness of the complex physical therapy (CPT) for lymphedema of the unilateral lower limbs of eleven patients who had been admitted to Tokushima Rehabilitation Hospital. Ten patients were of secondary lymphedema, nine of which were after treatment of uterine cancer and one was of primary lymphedema. Our CPT consited of skin care, manual lymph drainage (MLD), compression therapy with elastic bandages or elastic stockings, and exercise therapy under compression. MLD functionally operates to enhance the lymph drainage more proximally in both contralateral and ipsilateral truncal quadrants of the torso, then in the proximal limb, and only thereafter from the distal to proximal portion of the edematous extremity. Swelling ratio of all patients on admission was 26.9± 11.8% and that at discharge was 16.8±9.4%. Edema reduction ratio (ERR) of the entire patients was 41.5± 16.5%, and 81.8% of cases were recognized as effective, in which ERR showed more than 30% at discharge. In a consensus document about the diagnosis and treatment of peripheral lymphedema in 1995, the International Society of Lymphology Executive Committee reported that most operations designed to alleviate peripheral lymphedema have not as yet been perfected or usually are still inferior to combined physiotherapy. At present lymphedema should be accurately diagnosed in the early stage and be treated with CPT correctly by clinicians who understand lymphedema thoroughly and are well trained

Depressive Symptoms and the Vocational Indecision Scale of Undergraduates in Each School Grade

抑うつ症状と職業未決定尺度との関連性を学年別に検討するため、2002 年度と2003 年度に入学した旧東京商船大学生を対象に1 ～ 4 年生まで質問紙調査を行った。1 年生254 人（女24 人）、2 年生212人（女26 人）、3 年生255 人（女29 人）、4 年生260 人（女25 人）を分析した。職業未決定尺度の下位尺度では未熟、混乱、猶予、模索、安直が4 年生で低下し、決定が4 年生で増加していた（x2 検定）。またCenter for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale の日本語版で測定した抑うつ症状の有無を目的変数、職業未決定下位尺度を説明変数としたロジスティック回帰分析を行った結果、混乱が全学年で、3，4 年生では猶予が抑うつ発生を増加させた。模索は1，2 年生の抑うつ発生を低下させた。以上より、抑うつ症状の発症は、混乱、猶予の傾向の強さ、模索の傾向の弱さに影響を受けることが示唆された。東京海洋大学保健管理センター東京学芸大学教育学部養護教育講座東日本郵政株式会社新東京郵政健康管理センタ
