kn-abstract=Molecular biological techniques have enabled the accurate identification of the avian Eimeria parasite, however, the preparation of PCR template remains a bottleneck due to contaminants from feces and the robust oocyst's wall resistant to chemical and mechanical force. Generally, the preparation of PCR template involves three main steps: (1) pretreatment of oocysts; (2) disruption of oocysts; and (3) purification of genomic DNA. We prepared PCR templates from both unsporulated and sporulated E. tenella oocysts using various protocols, followed by species-specific PCR to define the limit of detection. Our data revealed that whereas neither pretreatment of oocysts with sodium hypochlorite nor purification of genomic DNA with commercial kits improved the limit of detection of PCR, disruption of oocysts was a critical step in the preparation of PCR templates. The most sensitive PCR assay was achieved with the template prepared by disrupting oocysts suspended in distilled water, followed by bead-beating and heating at 99°C for 5 min, which detected 0.16 oocysts per PCR. This ultra-simplified protocol for preparation of PCR template, which does not require expensive reagents or equipment, will significantly enhance the sensitive and efficient molecular identification of Eimeria. It will improve our understanding of the prevalence of this parasite at the species level and contribute to the development of techniques for the control in the field.

kn-title=Pancentromere analysis of Allium species reveals diverse centromere positions in onion and gigantic centromeres in garlic
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=In eukaryotes, centromeres interact with the kinetochore for distribution of genetic information in cell division, yet their sequence and size are diverse among species. However, their position on chromosomes is considered to be conserved within a species. In this study, we analyzed the centromeres of 3 Allium species, namely, Welsh onion (Allium fistulosum), onion (Allium cepa), and garlic (Allium sativum) via pancentromere analysis and repetitive sequence analysis of centromeres and their neighborhoods and revealed their mobility, sequence organization, and size. Among the 3 species, Welsh onion and garlic had stable centromeres, but the onion centromere appeared to be polymorphic and frequently differed in position by up to 28.0?Mb among cultivars and between multiple individuals of the same cultivar. This mobility was stabilized by hybridization with Welsh onions. Furthermore, these 3 species have very different centromere sequence organization, including differences in the existence and maturity of centromeric satellites, and differences in centromere size, with Welsh onion having a centromere of 1.9?Mb, and garlic having a centromere of ?10.6?Mb, the largest of any organism with monocentric chromosomes analyzed to date. Our pancentromere analysis of these Allium species reveals the variation in sequence organization, size, and position of this important chromosomal region.

kn-title=The leucine-rich repeat receptor kinase QSK1 regulates PRR-RBOHD complexes targeted by the bacterial effector HopF2Pto
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Plants detect pathogens using cell-surface pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) such as ELONGATION Factor-TU (EF-TU) RECEPTOR (EFR) and FLAGELLIN SENSING 2 (FLS2), which recognize bacterial EF-Tu and flagellin, respectively. These PRRs belong to the leucine-rich repeat receptor kinase (LRR-RK) family and activate the production of reactive oxygen species via the NADPH oxidase RESPIRATORY BURST OXIDASE HOMOLOG D (RBOHD). The PRR-RBOHD complex is tightly regulated to prevent unwarranted or exaggerated immune responses. However, certain pathogen effectors can subvert these regulatory mechanisms, thereby suppressing plant immunity. To elucidate the intricate dynamics of the PRR-RBOHD complex, we conducted a comparative coimmunoprecipitation analysis using EFR, FLS2, and RBOHD in Arabidopsis thaliana. We identified QIAN SHOU KINASE 1 (QSK1), an LRR-RK, as a PRR-RBOHD complex-associated protein. QSK1 downregulated FLS2 and EFR abundance, functioning as a negative regulator of PRR-triggered immunity (PTI). QSK1 was targeted by the bacterial effector HopF2Pto, a mono-ADP ribosyltransferase, reducing FLS2 and EFR levels through both transcriptional and transcription-independent pathways, thereby inhibiting PTI. Furthermore, HopF2Pto transcriptionally downregulated PROSCOOP genes encoding important stress-regulated phytocytokines and their receptor MALE DISCOVERER 1-INTERACTING RECEPTOR-LIKE KINASE 2. Importantly, HopF2Pto requires QSK1 for its accumulation and virulence functions within plants. In summary, our results provide insights into the mechanism by which HopF2Pto employs QSK1 to desensitize plants to pathogen attack.

kn-title=Effects of Sediment Microbial Fuel Cells on CH4 and CO2 Emissions from Straw Amended Paddy Soil
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Straw returning into paddy soil enhances soil organic matter which usually promotes the emission of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. The application of sediment microbial fuel cells (SMFCs) to paddy soil activates power-generating microorganisms and enhances organic matter biodegradation. In the present study, rice straw addition in SMFCs was examined to determine its effect on CH4 and CO2 emissions. Columns (height, 25?cm; inner diameter, 9?cm) with four treatments: soil without and with rice straw under SMFC and without SMFC conditions were incubated at 25°C for 70 days. Anodic potential values at 7?cm depth sediment were kept higher by SMFCs than those without SMFCs. Cumulative CH4 emission was significantly reduced by SMFC with straw amendment (p < 0.05) with no significant effect on CO2 emission. 16S rRNA gene analysis results showed that Firmicutes at the phylum, Closteridiales and Acidobacteriales at order level were dominant on the anode of straw-added SMFC, whereas Methanomicrobiales were in the treatment without SMFC, indicating that a certain group of methanogens were suppressed by SMFC. Our results suggest that the anodic redox environment together with the enrichment of straw-degrading bacteria contributed to a competitive advantage of electrogenesis over methanogenesis in straw-added SMFC system.

kn-title=Development of an AI-based Image Analysis System to Calculate the Visit Duration of a Green Blow Fly on a Strawberry Flower
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Pollinator insects are required to pollinate flowers in the production of some fruits and vegetables, and strawberries fall into this category. However, the function of pollinators has not been clarified by quantitative metrics such as the duration of pollinator visits needed by flowers. Due to the long activity time of pollinators (approximately 10-h), it is not easy to observe the visitation characteristics manually. Therefore, we developed software for evaluating pollinator performance using two types of artificial intelligence (AI), YOLOv4, which is an object detection AI, and VGG16, which is an image classifier AI. In this study, we used Phaenicia sericata Meigen (green blow fly) as the strawberry pollinator. The software program can automatically estimate the visit duration of a fly on a flower from video clips. First, the position of the flower is identified using YOLO, and the identified location is cropped. Next, the cropped image is classified by VGG16 to determine if the fly is on the flower. Finally, the results are saved in CSV and HTML format. The program processed 10 h of video (collected from 07:00 h to 17:00 h) taken under actual growing conditions to estimate the visit durations of flies on flowers. The recognition accuracy was approximately 97%, with an average difference of 550 s. The software was run on a small computer board (the Jetson Nano), indicating that it can easily be used without a complicated AI configuration. This means that the software can be used immediately by distributing pre-configured disk images. When the software was run on the Jetson Nano, it took approximately 11 min to estimate one day of 2-h video. It is therefore clear that the visit duration of a fly on a flower can be estimated much faster than by manually checking videos. Furthermore, this system can estimate the visit durations of pollinators to other flowers by changing the YOLO and VGG16 model files.

kn-title=Elucidation of Low-temperature Regulated Flavone Synthesis in Dahlia Variabilis and its Effects on Flower Color
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Dahlia (Dahlia variabilis) flower colors are diverse and are determined by the accumulation of flavonoids. Cultivars with dark red flowers accumulate more anthocyanins in their petals. Flower color changes such as color fading often occur in some cultivars. In this study, low minimum temperature regulated flower color fading and flavonoid synthesis in dahlia ‘Nessho’ were investigated. The pigment contents and expression levels of flavonoid biosynthesis genes were investigated in detail under several growing environments in which color fading occurs. Flavones accumulate more in color-faded orange flowers than in dark red ray florets. The expression analysis of the anthocyanin synthesis pathway genes indicated that the upregulation of flavone synthase (DvFNS) gene expression correlated with the high accumulation of flavones in color-faded petals. DvFNS expression was also detected in young leaves, and the expression level was higher in winter than in summer. Seasonal changes in DvFNS expression in young leaves significantly correlated with color fading in petals. The change in DvFNS expression in young unexpanded leaves of relatively high-sensitive plants was significantly higher than that of low-sensitive plants before and after treatment under inductive conditions. In conclusion, low-temperature-inducible changes in the flavonoid accumulation in petals was suggested to reflect a change in DvFNS expression occurring in the meristem prior to flower bud formation. This temporal DvFNS expression in young unexpanded leaves of ‘Nessho’ dahlia could be an insight for the selection and breeding of non-color fading plants.

kn-title=Grafting-through functionalization of graphene oxide with cationic polymers for enhanced adsorption of anionic dyes and viruses
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Graphene oxide (GO) is a sheet-like carbon material with abundant oxygen-containing functional groups on its surface. GO has been extensively studied as an adsorbent for heavy metals and organic compounds. However, effective strategies for negatively charged materials have yet to be established. This study aimed to synthesize composites of GO and cationic polymers for the selective adsorption of negatively charged materials; a challenge in this approach is the strong electrostatic interactions between GO and cationic polymers, which can lead to aggregation. This study addresses this issue by employing the grafting-through method. GO was initially modified with allylamine to introduce a polymerizable site, followed by radical polymerization to covalently bond polymers to the GO surface, effectively preventing aggregation. Adsorption experiments demonstrated that the GO-polymer composite selectively adsorbs anionic dye, such as methyl orange. Virus adsorption tests showed significantly enhanced performance compared to pristine GO. These results emphasize the critical role of controlled surface modification and charge manipulation in optimizing the adsorption performance of GO. This study establishes a simple and effective approach for synthesizing GO-cationic polymer composites, contributing to the development of advanced materials for water purification applications.

kn-title=Centrophilic retrotransposon integration via CENH3 chromatin in Arabidopsis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=In organisms ranging from vertebrates to plants, major components of centromeres are rapidly evolving repeat sequences, such as tandem repeats (TRs) and transposable elements (TEs), which harbour centromere-specific histone H3 (CENH3)1,2. Complete centromere structures recently determined in human and Arabidopsis suggest frequent integration and purging of retrotransposons within the TR regions of centromeres3,4,5. Despite the high impact of ‘centrophilic’ retrotransposons on the paradox of rapid centromere evolution, the mechanisms involved in centromere targeting remain poorly understood in any organism. Here we show that both Ty3 and Ty1 long terminal repeat retrotransposons rapidly turnover within the centromeric TRs of Arabidopsis species. We demonstrate that the Ty1/Copia element Tal1 (Transposon of Arabidopsis lyrata 1) integrates de novo into regions occupied by CENH3 in Arabidopsis thaliana, and that ectopic expansion of the CENH3 region results in spread of Tal1 integration regions. The integration spectra of chimeric TEs reveal the key structural variations responsible for contrasting chromatin-targeting specificities to centromeres versus gene-rich regions, which have recurrently converted during the evolution of these TEs. Our findings show the impact of centromeric chromatin on TE-mediated rapid centromere evolution, with relevance across eukaryotic genomes.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Two polymer donors, PATz3T-o6BO and PATz3T-o6HD, incorporating alkoxy-substituted anthra[1,2-c:5,6-c′]bis([1,2,5]thiadiazole), were strategically designed and synthesized. The unique wavy backbone of these polymers effectively reduced aggregation, leading to enhanced solubility and significantly improved molecular ordering. Consequently, the PATz3T-o6HD:Y12-based solar cells achieved a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 7.94%. These findings provide valuable insights into the molecular design of high-performance polymer donors for organic photovoltaics (OPVs).

kn-abstract=This research aimed to identify the volatile compounds found in the fresh leaves of Acacia crassicarpa Benth. This is the first phytochemical investigation of this species. Essential oils from the leaves of A. crassicarpa were obtained by hydro-distillation and analyzed by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Sixty-one compounds accounting for 95.8% of the leaf oil were identified. The classes of compounds identified in the oil sample were aldehydes (30.7%), sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (25.2%), alkanes (19.1%), oxygenated monoterpenes (3.6%) oxygenated sesquiterpenes (2.3%), monoterpene hydrocarbons (0.8%) and others (14.2%). The major constituents in the leaf oil were tridecanal (24.5%), (E)-caryophyllene (11.7%), n-heneicosane (7.2%), squalene (6.5%), and 7-tetradecenal (5.9%).

kn-title=Shoot-Silicon-Signal protein to regulate root silicon uptake in rice
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Plants accumulate silicon to protect them from biotic and abiotic stresses. Especially in rice (Oryza sativa), a typical Si-accumulator, tremendous Si accumulation is indispensable for healthy growth and productivity. Here, we report a shoot-expressed signaling protein, Shoot-Silicon-Signal (SSS), an exceptional homolog of the flowering hormone “florigen” differentiated in Poaceae. SSS transcript is only detected in the shoot, whereas the SSS protein is also detected in the root and phloem sap. When Si is supplied from the root, the SSS transcript rapidly decreases, and then the SSS protein disappears. In sss mutants, root Si uptake and expression of Si transporters are decreased to a basal level regardless of the Si supply. The grain yield of the mutants is decreased to 1/3 due to insufficient Si accumulation. Thus, SSS is a key phloem-mobile protein for integrating root Si uptake and shoot Si accumulation underlying the terrestrial adaptation strategy of grasses.

kn-title=CNGC2 Negatively Regulates Stomatal Closure and Is Not Required for flg22- and H2O2-Induced Guard Cell [Ca2+]cyt Elevation in Arabidopsis thaliana
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=In guard cells, cytosolic Ca2+ acts as a second messenger that mediates abscisic acid (ABA)- and pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP)-induced stomatal closure. It was reported that Arabidopsis cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channel 2 (CNGC2) functions as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)- and PAMP-activated Ca2+-permeable channels at the plasma membrane of mesophyll cells and mediates Ca2+-dependent PAMP-triggered immunity. In this study, we examined the role of CNGC2 in the regulation of stomatal movement because CNGC2 is also expressed in guard cells. We found that stomata of the CNGC2 disruption mutant cngc2-3 are constitutively closed even in the absence of ABA or the flagellar-derived PAMP, flg22. Consistently, leaf temperatures of the cngc2-3 mutant were higher than those of wild-type (WT) plants. The stomatal phenotype of the cngc2-3 mutant was restored by complementation with wild-type CNGC2 under the control of the guard cell preferential promoter, pGC1. Elevation of cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration in guard cells induced by flg22 and H2O2 remained intact in the cngc2-3 mutant. The introduction of the ost1-3 mutation into the cngc2-3 background did not alter the stomatal phenotype. However, the stomatal phenotype of the cngc2-3 mutant was successfully rescued in the double disruption mutant cngc2-3aba2-2. Taken together, these results suggest that CNGC2 negatively regulates stomatal closure response and does not function as flg22? and H2O2-activated Ca2+ channels in guard cells. Though CNGC2 is responsive for H2O2- and flg22-induced [Ca2+]cyt elevation in mesophyll cells, the involvement of CNGC2 in the response to H2O2 and flg22 in guard cells is questionable.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=In this study, we developed microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPADs) for the determination of antioxidant vitamins. The proposed μPADs utilize the reduction of metal ions by hydrophilic and hydrophobic antioxidant vitamins, which is followed by colorimetric reactions with chelating reagents. Hydrophilic vitamin C reduces Fe(III) to Fe(II) and forms a stable Fe(II)-bathophenanthroline complex in an aqueous solution. By contrast, this complex is unstable in organic solvents, and hydrophobic vitamin E requires Fe(III) and bathophenanthroline to be replaced with Cu(II) and bathocuproine. In these results, the relationship between the logarithm of a vitamin's concentration and its color intensity was linear and ranged from 4.4 to 35 mg L?1 for ascorbic acid and 50?200 mg L?1 for α-tocopherol. The limits of detection, estimated from the standard deviation of blank samples, were 3.1 mg L?1 for ascorbic acid and either 27 mg L?1 (in hexane) or 48 mg L?1 (in ethanol) for α-tocopherol. The proposed method was used to quantify vitamin C in bell peppers, mandarin oranges, kiwifruit, and lemons, as well as vitamin E in almonds, almond milk, and dietary supplements. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of these μPADs for the practical analysis of antioxidant vitamins in food samples.

kn-title=Innovations in paper-based analytical devices and portable absorption photometers for onsite analysis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Two types of analytical instruments and devices?one sophisticated high-performance instrument and another portable device?have been the focus of recent trends in analytical science. The necessity of point-of-care testing and onsite analysis has accelerated the advancement of high-performance, user-friendly portable analytical devices such as paper-based analytical devices (PADs) and light-emitting diode-based portable photometers. In this review, we summarize our achievements in the study of PADs and portable photometers. Several types of PADs are capable of performing titrations, metal ion analysis, and food analysis, while photometers, which consist of paired emitter?detector light-emitting diode (PEDD) photometers, are used for thiocyanate and herbicide analysis. These PADs and photometers permit the onsite determination of real environmental, body fluid, and food samples when an equipped laboratory is unavailable.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The granulation process of a slurry droplet containing a water-soluble polymer in a spray dryer is investigated. Although there have been many studies on the drying behavior of a single-component slurry droplet, there have been few reports for a multicomponent slurry droplet. This is due to the complexity and difficulty in evaluating the drying behavior of a multicomponent slurry droplet. Therefore, for the production of granules from multicomponent materials by a spray dryer, its operating conditions are usually determined by trial and error. To optimize the practical granule production process, the drying behavior of multicomponent slurry droplets should be studied. In this study, the drying behavior of a silica slurry droplet containing polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is investigated. The drying behavior of a droplet suspended on the tip of a needle was observed. The effect of the volume fraction of PVA on the drying behavior and the morphology of a dried granule is studied. The effect of drying condition on the granule formation process is also investigated. As a result, the structure of dried granules was strongly influenced by PVA concentration. Segregation of PVA in the dried granules was observed. Based on the results, the drying process diagram is presented.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=In the field of die and mold machining, determining appropriate cutting conditions is crucial. Factors such as tool geometry, machining path, work material characteristics, machining efficiency, and finishing accuracy must be taken into consideration. However, the current method of determining cutting conditions relies heavily on the intuition and experience of skilled engineers, and there is a need for a system to replace such knowledge. One of the critical factors affecting machining accuracy and efficiency is the tool overhang length, which is directly related to tool geometry. Unfortunately, there is no clear guideline for its determination. In a previous study, researchers developed a system to quickly derive cutting conditions using a data mining method and Random Forest Regression (RFR) applied to a tool catalog database. In this study, we constructed a new cutting condition compensation system based on the existing model, which accounts for the tool overhang length. The results of cutting experiments under high aspect ratio overhang lengths confirm that the correction coefficients proposed by the system are significant.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=TEE systems provide normal world and secure world. It is impossible to gain access to the secure world directly from the normal world. However, vulnerabilities in the secure world can cause attacks to compromise the secure world. In this study, we investigate the security features applied to trusted applications (TA) in OP-TEE and clarify the lack of protection against stack buffer overflow in TA command calls. We also propose a method for preventing attacks that exploit stack buffer overflows in TA command calls. In addition, the experimental results show that attacks on the vulnerable TAs can be prevented with the proposed method and the overhead can be evaluated.

kn-title=Evaluation of Effectiveness of MAC Systems Based on LSM for Protecting IoT Devices
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Numerous active attacks targeting Internet of Things (IoT) devices exist. They exploit the latest vulnerabilities discovered in IoT devices. Therefore, Mandatory Access Control (MAC) systems based on Linux Security Modules (LSM), such as SELinux and AppArmor, are effective security features for IoT devices because they can mitigate the impact of attacks even if software vulnerabilities are discovered. However, they are not adopted by most IoT devices. The existing approaches are insufficient for investigating the causes of this problem.In this study, we comprehensively investigated what factors can affect the applicability of MAC systems based on LSM in IoT devices. We focused on how frequently cases can occur where they cannot be adopted, owing to each factor. To increase the comprehensiveness of the factors affecting the adoption of MAC systems in IoT devices, we investigated the kernel version, CPU architecture, and support for BusyBox in addition to the investigation of resources, which conducted in previous studies. We also conducted simulated experiments based on the attack method of Mirai to investigate whether MAC systems can protect against IoT malware. Finally, we discuss the impact of a combination of these factors on MAC system adoption.

kn-abstract=Unlike terrestrial environments, where humans reside, there is no sunlight in the deep sea. Instead, dim visible light from black-body radiation and bioluminescence illuminates hydrothermal vent areas in the deep sea. A deep-sea hydrothermal vent shrimp, Rimicaris hybisae, is thought to detect this dim light using its enlarged dorsal eye; however, the molecular basis of its photoreception remains unexplored. Here, we characterized the molecular properties of opsins, universal photoreceptive proteins in animals, found in R. hybisae. Transcriptomic analysis identified six opsins: three Gq-coupled opsins, one Opn3, one Opn5, and one peropsin. Functional analysis revealed that five of these opsins exhibited light-dependent G protein activity, whereas peropsin exhibited the ability to convert all-trans-retinal to 11-cis-retinal like photoisomerases. Notably, all the R. hybisae opsins, including Opn5, convergently show visible light sensitivity (around 457?517 nm), whereas most opsins categorized as Opn5 have been demonstrated to be UV sensitive. Mutational analysis revealed that the unique visible light sensitivity of R. hybisae Opn5 is achieved through the stabilization of a protonated Schiff base by a counterion residue at position 83 (Asp83), which differs from the position identified in other opsins. These findings suggest that the vent shrimp R. hybisae has adapted its photoreceptive devices to dim deep-sea hydrothermal light by selectively maintaining a repertoire of visible light?sensitive opsins, including the uniquely tuned Opn5.

kn-title=Leg-biting fights reduce the number of sperm transferred by the loser and in draws in Zophobas atratus
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Intra-sexual selection has been observed across a wide range of species. Male-male combat can not only determine the winner and loser but also affect subsequent reproductive success. The effects of combat outcomes on reproduction are thought to depend on the reproductive ecology of the target species. However, to our knowledge, studies examining the impact of combat outcomes on sperm competition and fitness remain limited. In the giant mealworm (Zophobas atratus), male’s combat involves biting each other's hind legs. Females mated to the losers of leg-biting contests had significantly fewer eggs and fewer offspring than females mated to males that were not in a contest. Possible explanations for this fitness reduction include the inability of males to transfer sperm effectively due to the combat outcome or the inability of their sperm to fertilize eggs due to female cryptic sperm choice, and the mechanisms underlying this reduction remain unclear. Previous studies have observed distorted mating postures in losing males, leading us to hypothesize that leg-biting during combat might affect sperm transfer. To test this, we allowed uncontested males, winners, losers, and males with a draw outcome to mate with females and compared the number of sperm within the female’s spermatheca. Additionally, we examined the correlation between combat duration and sperm count. Results showed that losers and males with draw transferred fewer sperm than non-combat males. Moreover, the longer the combat duration, the fewer sperm males were able to transfer. These findings suggest that the reduction in sperm transferred was affected by both losing in combat and prolonged combat duration in leg-biting encounters.

kn-title=Genomic Islands of Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci 6605: Identification of PtaGI-1 as a Pathogenicity Island With Effector Genes and a Tabtoxin Cluster
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Genomic islands (GIs) are 20-500 kb DNA regions that are thought to be acquired by horizontal gene transfer. GIs that confer pathogenicity and environmental adaptation have been reported in Pseudomonas species; however, GIs that enhance bacterial virulence have not. Here, we identified 110 kb and 103 kb GIs in P. syringae pv. tabaci 6605 (Pta6605), the causative agent of tobacco wildfire disease, which has the ability to produce tabtoxin as a phytotoxin. These GIs are partially homologous to known genomic islands in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and P. syringae pv. phaseolicola and were designated PtaGI-1 and PtaGI-2. Both PtaGIs conserve core genes, whereas each GI possesses different accessory genes. PtaGI-1 contains a tabtoxin biosynthetic gene cluster and three type III effector genes among its accessory genes, whereas PtaGI-2 also contains homologous genes to hsvABC, pathogenicity-related genes in Erwinia amylovora. Inoculation revealed that the PtaGI-1 mutant, but not the PtaGI-2 mutant, lost the ability to biosynthesise tabtoxin and to cause disease. Therefore, PtaGI-1 is thought to be a pathogenicity island. Both PtaGI-1 and PtaGI-2 have a pseudogene of tRNALys on the left border and an intact tRNALys gene on the right border. In a colony of Pta6605, both GIs can be excised at tRNALys, and PtaGI-1 and PtaGI-2 exist in a circular form. These results indicate that tabtoxin biosynthesis genes in PtaGI-1 are required for disease development, and PtaGI-1 is necessary for Pta6605 virulence.

kn-title=Effects of different management approaches on unmet water demand in coffee-producing areas during wet and dry years: a case study of the Srepok River Watershed, Vietnam
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The primary cause of conflicts over water allocation is growing demand and limited supply, which has become an increasingly serious issue in many watersheds. To alleviate water disputes, effective management strategies can be employed, particularly in the context of intensifying agricultural production and unpredictable changes in weather. In this study, two models, SWAT and WEAP, and the modified surface water supply index (MSWSI) were utilized to evaluate water allocation in the Srepok River Watershed (SRW), considering the prioritization of demand and various irrigation methods, during both wet and dry years. The crop irrigation was chosen to be the main focus in relation to the unmet water demand (UWD). The results indicated that coffee was the primary cause of UWD in the middle of the watershed during the second half of the dry season, and annual crops (AC) were the secondary cause. This research further elucidated that while prioritizing demand had an insignificant impact, transitioning from hose irrigation to sprinkler irrigation could be remarkably effective in mitigating the issues of UWD in coffee crops during both wet and dry years.

kn-title=Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci 6605 Requires Seven Type III Effectors to Infect Nicotiana benthamiana
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Type III effectors (T3Es), virulence factors injected into plant cells via the type III secretion system (T3SS), play essential roles in the infection of host plants. Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci 6605 (Pta 6605) is the causal agent of wildfire disease in tobacco and harbours at least 22 T3Es in its genome. However, the specific T3Es required by Pta 6605 to infect Nicotiana benthamiana remain unidentified. In this study, we investigated the T3Es that contribute to Pta 6605 infection of N. benthamiana. We constructed Pta 6605 poly-T3E-deficient mutants (Pta DxE) and inoculated them into N. benthamiana. Flood assay, which mimics natural opening-based entry, showed that mutant strains lacking 14-22 T3Es, namely, Pta D14E-D22E mutants, exhibited reduced disease symptoms. By contrast, infiltration inoculation, which involves direct injection into leaves, showed that the Pta D14E to Pta D20E mutants developed disease symptoms. Notably, the Pta D20E, containing AvrE1 and HopM1, induced weak but observable symptoms upon infiltration inoculation. Conversely, no symptoms were observed in either the flood assay or infiltration inoculation for Pta D21E and Pta D22E. Taken together, these findings indicate that the many T3Es such as AvrPto4/AvrPtoB, HopW1/HopAE1, and HopM1/AvrE1 in Pta 6605 collectively contribute to invasion through natural openings and symptom development in N. benthamiana. This study provides the basis for understanding virulence in the host by identifying the minimum T3E repertoire required by Pta 6605 to infect N. benthamiana.

kn-abstract=　Introduction : Clinical research is crucial for the advancement of medicine, but modern otolaryngologists' attitudes regarding clinical research have not been known. This study was conducted to survey the background, knowledge, and interest in clinical research among junior and mid-career otolaryngologists.<br>
　Methods : A questionnaire survey was distributed to 34 otolaryngologists with ?15 years' clinical experience working at Okayama University and its affiliated facilities. The respondents were divided into junior (non-specialists) and mid-career otolaryngologists (specialists) based on whether they were board-certified otolaryngologists. The survey assessed their background, understanding, and interest in clinical research.<br>
　Results : Twenty-nine otolaryngologists (83%) responded (10 junior and 19 mid-career otolaryngologists). There was significant individual variation in their interest and knowledge of clinical research. However, approximately half of the respondents indicated that they were not interested in and/or had never engaged in clinical research.<br>
　Conclusion : The data collected by this survey contribute to our understanding of the current state of clinical research engagement among junior and mid-career otolaryngologists, and they can serve as a basis for exploring future strategies to increase this engagement.

kn-abstract=　We combine the recent seismic reflection profiles to construct a new seismic velocity model of the sedimentary layer incorporating the accretionary prism along the Ryukyu trench. In constructing the new model, we refer to the zoning (ZONE1 to ZONE4) identified by Okamura et al. (2017, Tectonophys.). The construction process consists of the following steps: First, we digitize either unconformities or VP=4 to 5 km/s lines as the seismic basement, whichever is more clearly identifiable. Second, the digitized thickness data of the sedimentary layer from the reflection profiles are geometrically modeled and interpolated to make the three-dimensional structure model. Finally, we supplement the external region of the constructed 3-D sedimentary model using the J-SHIS model provided by the NIED to complete the velocity structure model in the entire Ryukyu arc. The main features of our model are as follows: In ZONE1, off Ishigaki-jima island, the thick sedimentary layer extends about 50 km wide from the Ryukyu trench. In ZONE2, off Miyako-jima island, the thinner layer compared to the other zones is found near the trench, with a thin sedimentary terrace covering the area behind it. In ZONE3, off Okinawa-jima island, the sedimentary layer deepens as it approaches the trench. In ZONE4, off Tokara islands, the deepest layer among all zones is identified. We then conduct 3-D finite-difference simulations of seismic wave propagation using the new and the previous models to confirm the improvement of the new model. In the simulations, the effects of the accretionary prism along the Ryukyu trench on the seismic wave propagation are clearly identified.

kn-title=Association of emergency intensive care unit occupancy due to brain-dead organ donors with ambulance diversion
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Our study aims to explore how intensive care unit (ICU) occupancy by brain-dead organ donors affects emergency ambulance diversions. In this retrospective, single-center study at an emergency ICU (EICU), brain-dead organ donors were managed until organ procurement. We classified each day between August 1, 2021, and July 31, 2023, as either an exposure day (any day with a brain-dead organ donor in the EICU from admission to organ procurement) or a control day (all other days). The study compared these days and used multiple logistic regression analysis to assess the impact of EICU occupancy by brain-dead organ donors on ambulance diversions. Over two years, 6,058 emergency patients were transported by ambulance, with 1327 admitted to the EICU, including 13 brain-dead organ donors. Brain-dead donors had longer EICU stays (17 vs. 2 days, P < 0.001). With 168 exposure and 562 control days, EICU occupancy was higher on exposure days (75% vs. 67%, P = 0.003), leading to more ambulance diversions. Logistic regression showed exposure days significantly increased ambulance diversions, with an odds ratio of 1.79 (95% CIs 1.10-2.88). This study shows that managing brain-dead organ donors in the EICU leads to longer stays and higher occupancy, resulting in more frequent ambulance diversions. These findings highlight the critical need for policies that optimize ICU resource allocation while maintaining the infrastructure necessary to support organ donation programs and ensuring continued care for brain-dead donors, who play an essential role in addressing the organ shortage crisis.

en-title=Proposals for Supporting Children’s Adaptation in School Mergers and Closures
kn-title=学校統廃合における児童の適応支援策の提言
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of school mergers and closures on children through a literature review and field survey and to propose strategies for supporting children's adaptation to the resulting environmental transitions. First, a literature review on school mergers and closures indicated that such experiences could influence children's later interpersonal relationships and increase stress responses. However, research on the impact of school mergers and closures on children remains limited, with insufficient understanding of their psychological effects on children. Next, interviews conducted as part of a field survey revealed that school mergers and closures could be significant sources of stress for children. Based on these findings, we recommends multi-level support measures targeting individuals, classes, grades, and entire schools, primarily through special activities, to help mitigate the impact of these transitions on children.
kn-abstract=本研究の目的は，学校統廃合に係る文献検索および実態調査を通して，学校統廃合という環境移行が児童に与える影響について検討し，学校統廃合がもたらす環境移行に対する児童の適応支援策について提言することである。まず，学校統廃合に係る文献検索を行った結果，学校統廃合の経験が児童生徒のその後の人間関係形成やストレス反応の増加に影響を与えている可能性が示された。しかし，学校統廃合が児童に与える影響に関する研究は非常に少なく，統廃合の経験が児童に与える心理的影響については十分に解明されていないことがわかった。次に，実態調査として行ったインタビューにおいて，学校統廃合が児童にとって大きなストレス要因となる可能性があることがわかった。これらの現状を踏まえて，学校統廃合が児童に与える影響を和らげるため，特別活動を中心として，個人・学級・学年・学校レベルでの具体的な取組を提案した。

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=In this study, a play-based instruction was used to promote the acquisition of intersubjective communication in a special needs school for students with intellectual disabilities. The participant was a first-grade boy with autism. As a result, the boy began to show intersubjective communication and to respond to the teacher's instruction. It was suggested that four aspects of the play environment may have promoted the acquisition of intersubjective communication: 1) attractive toys, 2) play with the teacher through attractive toys, 3) intervention according to the developmental process of the target children's play, and 4) empathic involvement to encourage the affective sharing.
kn-abstract=　自閉スペクトラム症児は，相互伝達行為の獲得に遅れがあることが指摘されている。本研究では，自閉スペクトラム症の診断のある知的障害特別支援学校小学部１年生男児を対象に，相互伝達行為の獲得を目指して，遊びを中心とした指導を行った。その結果，対象児の遊びが「感覚運動的遊び」「機能的遊び」から「象徴的遊び」「社会的遊び」へと移行するに伴い，相互伝達行為が見られるようになった。また，教師による働き掛けへの応答も見られるようになり，ポジティブな情動の共有が生み出されやすい遊びの環境設定が，相互伝達行為の獲得において効果的であったことが示唆された。遊び環境については，1）魅力的な玩具，2）魅力的な玩具を介した教師との遊び，3）対象児の遊びの発達段階に応じた介入，4）情動の共有を促す共感的関わりの４点が相互伝達行為の獲得を促した可能性が考えられた。

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of combining initial hemoglobin levels with the shock index for predicting the need for life-saving interventions (LSI) in pediatric patients with blunt liver and spleen injuries (BLSI), specifically tailored to different age groups. This was a multicenter retrospective cohort study of pediatric patients with BLSI in Japan. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) were used to assess predictive accuracy. The study included 1,370 patients. LSI was required in 59 of 247 (23.9%) aged 1 to 6 years, 100 of 402 (24.9%) aged 7 to 12 years, and 125 of 297 (42.1%) patients aged 13 to 16 years. Within each specific age group, the predictability was categorized as fair and appeared higher than that of the entire cohort or when using either parameter alone. Notably, in the 1 to 6-year age group, the combined values showed the highest predictability, which was statistically superior to the shock index alone (AUROC of 0.770 vs. 0.671, P = 0.025). Tailoring initial hemoglobin levels and shock index to specific age groups enhances predictability of LSI in pediatric BLSI, showing a fair level of predictive accuracy.

en-abstract=In this study, international students from Southeast Asia were asked, 'Why did you decide to study in Japan?' and the information was collected through semi-structured interviews. The results showed that (i) international students' image of Japan, (ii) parents' image of Japan, (iii) the availability of scholarships, (iv) affordable tuition fees and living costs, and (v) the existence of a community of people from the country of origin., were found to be important. It was assumed that some of this information and image is formed by the international students' (1) satisfaction with their study destination, (2) opportunities to interact with Japanese people, (3) ease of living in Japan, (4) Japanese language level, (5) understanding of Japanese culture, etc., and is reinforced through word of mouth and the internet. Therefore, supporting the creation of these environments will create a positive image of studying in Japan and increase the number of students from Southeast Asia.
kn-abstract=　本研究では、東南アジアから留学している留学生15人を対象として「なぜ日本に留学したのか？」、半構造化インタビューにより情報を収集した。その結果、(i) 留学生の日本に対するイメージ、(ii) 保護者の日本に対するイメージ、(iii) 奨学金の機会、(iv) 私費留学が可能な学費・生活費レベル、(v) 出身国コミュニティーの有無、が重要であることが分かった。これらの情報やイメージの一部は、(1) 留学先での満足度、(2) 日本人との交流機会、(3) 生活のしやすさ、(4) 留学生の日本語レベル、(5) 日本文化に対する理解等によって形成され、ロコミやインターネットを通じて強化されることが推測された。よって、上記の項目に着目し、留学生の満足度等を向上させるための環境づくりを支援していくことが、日本留学に対するプラスのイメージを作り、東南アジアからの留学生増につながっていくと考えられた。

kn-title=Evaluation of the temporal behavior of fulvic acid iron in Asahi River, Okayama, Japan
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Iron is essential for biogeochemical processes in aquatic ecosystems, but its riverine concentration can be affected by environmental conditions. This study assessed weekly fulvic acid iron (FAFe) concentration at a single sampling site in Asahi River from 2022?2023 to explore the differences in the temporal scales. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of physicochemical properties of the river on the concentration of FAFe, analyze the concentration of FAFe in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and assess the relationship between FAFe concentration and land use types of the watershed. The results indicated that physicochemical parameters, such as pH and surface water temperature (SWT) seemed to influence FAFe concentration (p < 0.05). Hydrological dynamics influenced FAFe concentration and transport, revealing an increasing trend during spring (p < 0.001) and summer (p = 0.05), with non-significant trends during autumn and winter (p > 0.05). FAFe exhibited a strong positive correlation with total organic carbon (TOC) (p < 0.001). Upland fields significantly influenced FAFe concentration (p < 0.01) through runoff with abundant NO3? and PO43? into the river. Thus, FAFe concentration in Asahi River was influenced by pH, SWT, TOC, hydrological regime, and agricultural runoff.

en-title=Conceptual Arrangement of Resistance to Change in Organizations: Toward Integrative Understanding from the Perspective of Multidimensional Attitudes
kn-title=組織における変化への抵抗の概念整理 ― 多次元的態度の視点からの統合的理解に向けて ―
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=　VUCA時代と呼ばれる現代社会において，組織には急速に変化する社会環境への柔軟な対応力が求められている。しかし，新たな制度・施策を導入しても組織変革が進まないケースは多い。組織における変化への抵抗は古くから研究されてきた現象であり，変革へのレディネスやコミットメントなどさまざまな概念が提唱されてきた。他方で，これらの概念の内容の重複による混乱が危惧されており，VUCAが注目されはじめた2000 年代以降も，変化への抵抗に関連する新たな概念が提唱されている。こうした混乱を解決し，統合的な理解を図るため，本稿では既往知見をレビューし，社会心理学で伝統的な多次元的態度（認知，感情，行動）の視点から，変化への抵抗とその関連概念を整理した。

kn-title=Distinct Infection Mechanisms of Rhizoctonia solani AG-1 IA and AG-4 HG-I+II in Brachypodium distachyon and Barley
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Rhizoctonia solani is a basidiomycete phytopathogenic fungus that causes rapid necrosis in a wide range of crop species, leading to substantial agricultural losses worldwide. The species complex is divided into 13 anastomosis groups (AGs) based on hyphal fusion compatibility and further subdivided by culture morphology. While R. solani classifications were shown to be independent of host specificity, it remains unclear whether different R. solani isolates share similar virulence mechanisms. Here, we investigated the infectivity of Japanese R. solani isolates on Brachypodium distachyon and barley. Two isolates, AG-1 IA (from rice) and AG-4 HG-I+II (from cauliflower), infected leaves of both plants, but only AG-4 HG-I+II infected roots. B. distachyon accessions Bd3-1 and Gaz-4 and barley cultivar 'Morex' exhibited enhanced resistance to both isolates compared to B. distachyon Bd21 and barley cultivars 'Haruna Nijo' and 'Golden Promise'. During AG-1 IA infection, but not AG-4 HG-I+II infection, resistant Bd3-1 and Morex induced genes for salicylic acid (SA) and N-hydroxypipecolic acid (NHP) biosynthesis. Pretreatment with SA or NHP conferred resistance to AG-1 IA, but not AG-4 HG-I+II, in susceptible B. distachyon Bd21 and barley Haruna Nijo. On the leaves of susceptible Bd21 and Haruna Nijo, AG-1 IA developed extensive mycelial networks with numerous infection cushions, which are specialized infection structures well-characterized in rice sheath blight. In contrast, AG-4 HG-I+II formed dispersed mycelial masses associated with underlying necrosis. We propose that the R. solani species complex encompasses at least two distinct infection strategies: AG-1 IA exhibits a hemibiotrophic lifestyle, while AG-4 HG-I+II follows a predominantly necrotrophic strategy.

kn-title=Fraglide-1 from traditional Chinese aromatic vinegar: A natural AhR antagonist for atopic dermatitis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Traditional Chinese Zhenjiang aromatic vinegar (Kozu) contains Fraglide-1 (FG1), a bioactive lactone with demonstrated peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) agonist and antioxidant activities. This study explored FG1's novel ability to antagonize the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) signaling pathway, which regulates artemin expression and contributes to itching and inflammation in atopic dermatitis. Through molecular docking simulations and cell-based assays in human keratinocytes, we demonstrated FG1's potent antagonistic activity against AhR signaling. FG1 effectively suppressed FICZ-induced inflammatory responses, including artemin expression, with potency (half maximal inhibitory concentration, IC50 = 5.1 μM) comparable to the synthetic antagonist StemRegenin 1 (SR1) while demonstrating a superior safety profile (median lethal concentration, LC50 > 100 μM vs. 27.5 μM for SR1). These findings expand our understanding of bioactive compounds from traditional fermented foods and their regulatory effects on AhR signaling, providing a foundation for future studies on FG1's role in modulating skin inflammation.

kn-abstract=Water buffaloes are essential to the rural economies of many developing countries, including Vietnam and Nepal, but native buffalo populations in these countries face challenges such as low productivity due to fertility and body growth issues. This study analyzed 34 SNPs in 18 genes associated with reproductive and body growth traits reported in cattle and buffalo in Vietnamese and Nepalese native buffaloes. Results showed no polymorphism at bovine SNPs in either buffalo. Further analysis with SNPs previously reported only in popular buffalo breeds, such as Murrah, found that Vietnamese buffalo were monomorphic at all sites, which may reflect reduced genetic diversity due to population decline. In contrast, Nepalese buffalo, consisting of two native breeds, showed polymorphism in 11 SNPs in 7 genes, with 10 of these matching those found in the Murrah buffalo analyzed here. These findings suggest that these SNPs may be applicable for genetic improvement in Nepalese native buffalo. This study provides valuable insights for future conservation and breeding programs aimed at enhancing reproductive and body growth performance of native buffalo in Vietnam and Nepal.

kn-title=Behavior, behavioral syndromes, and metabolism: the effects of artificial selection for death-feigning on metabolic rate
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Death-feigning, or thanatosis, is an anti-predator behavioral strategy in many animals. Because individuals remain immobile while feigning death, individuals with longer durations of death feigning often show lower locomotor activity. Thus, metabolic rate, which is closely related to locomotor activity, may also be related to the intensity of death feigning. If there is a genetic correlation between death feigning and metabolism, metabolic rate may respond to selection on death-feigning behavior. Here, we tested for a relationship between metabolic rate and death-feigning using replicated populations of the red flour beetle (Tribolium castaneum) subjected to artificial bidirectional selection on the duration of death-feigning behavior. The results indicated that metabolic rate did not differ between populations selected for increased or decreased death feigning, although locomotor activity was significantly different between these treatments; populations selected for reduced death-feigning durations tended to be more active. These results suggest that death-feigning behavior is not genetically correlated with metabolic rate in T. castaneum.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The present study sought to determine the characteristics of porcine oocyte-cumulus complexes (OCCs) derived from very small and small antral follicles (with less than 1 mm and 1?3 mm in diameter, respectively; VSF and SF) in comparison with controls from medium ones (with 3?6 mm in diameter; MF). Additionally, the present study examined the utility of brilliant cresyl blue (BCB) staining for assessing these OCCs. The incidence of BCB- oocytes in VSF- and SF-derived OCCs was higher than that in MF-derived OCCs. Although the meiotic and developmental competences of BCB+ oocytes from MF were superior to those from VSF and SF, blastocysts were successfully obtained from BCB+ oocytes even derived from VSF. The mean numbers of both total and viable cumulus cells surrounding an oocyte were significantly affected not only by the origin of the OCCs, but also by the BCB status of the oocytes (largest in MF-derived OCCs containing BCB+ oocytes). Although the outer and inner diameters of zona pellucida were affected by the origin of OCCs and the BCB status of oocytes (largest in MF-derived oocytes), the ooplasmic diameter of BCB+ oocytes did not differ among those derived from VSF, SF, and MF. Regardless of the BCB status, the transcriptional levels of G6PD and TKT in cumulus cells decreased during follicular development from VSF to MF, whereas the RPIA mRNA level in cumulus cells of MF-derived BCB+ OCCs was lower than in the others. These results underscore the utility of BCB staining for selecting MF-, SF-, and even VSF-derived OCCs containing oocytes with relatively higher meiotic and developmental competences, as well as the importance of having a sufficient number of healthy cumulus cells expressing genes related to the pentose phosphate pathway at lower levels.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The current narrative review aims to summarize the relation of mitochondrial content (MC) and mitochondrial DNA copy number (MDCN) in spermatozoa with sperm penetrability, and to discuss the various determining factors during the process of spermatogenesis in mammals. There are many potential factors associated with the quantitative alteration of MC and MDCN in male gametes from spermatogenesis to ejaculation. Particularly, spermatogenesis may be the first step to jointly contribute to an incomplete reduction of MC and MDCN in spermatozoon. It appears to be now quite clear that some abnormalities during spermatogenesis and oxidative stress are the main factors highly associated with the quantitative change of MC and MDCN in spermatozoa, consequently affecting sperm quality and their penetrability into oocytes. Currently, a series of proteins contributing to form sperm midpiece during spermatogenesis and cytoplasmic elimination during spermiation have been currently identified. The present review provides insight into how these factors interact with sperm MC and MDCN, and handholds to gain a better understanding of their roles. This review also highlights the uniqueness of normal fertile spermatozoa which have relatively lower MC and MDCN, but have mitochondria that function completely in multiple pivotal physiological pathways.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The common green bottle fly, Lucilia sericata (Meigen) (Diptera: Calliphoridae), is a promising and useful managed pollinator for greenhouse agricultural crops. The fly can pollinate at lower and higher temperatures than European honeybee. However, management of the longevity of pollinators is important for growers using greenhouses. Previous studies using other insects showed that caffeine affects insect longevity and behaviors. For instance, European honeybee live longer and have increased memory after caffeine consumption. How caffeine affects the longevity and behavior of pollinators is worth investigating because it can affect pollinator’s behavior, extend longevity, or be an insecticide against pollinators. In the present study, therefore, the longevity and locomotion of L. sericata were investigated when they were given different caffeine concentrations. First, the longevity of L. sericata with five different caffeine concentrations was compared to the control. The results showed that higher concentrations of caffeine (2%, 1%, and 0.5%) significantly decreased the life span compared to lower concentrations (0.05% and 0.01%). Second, the locomotion activities of L. sericata were examined at those two caffeine concentrations with treated and control male and female flies utilizing a Drosophila Activity Monitor (DAM). Treatment with 0.05% caffeine dramatically reduced locomotion, but treatment of 0.01% caffeine did not. We also compared lipid concentrations of flies: flies treated with 0.05% caffeine had a lower lipid concentration compared to flies treated with 0% and 0.01% caffeine. These results indicate that caffeine had negative effects on the longevity and locomotion activities of the pollinator L. sericata in laboratory conditions.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The long-term effects of cesarean delivery (CD) on child health and development remain controversial. This study aimed to investigate these effects using an outcome-wide approach in a Japanese context, where perinatal mortality rates are among the world's lowest. We analyzed data from 2,114 children in a nationwide Japanese birth cohort, linking the 21st Century Longitudinal Survey of Newborns with the Perinatal Research Network database. We examined associations between CD and various health and developmental outcomes up to 9 years of age, including hospitalizations, obesity, and developmental milestones. After adjusting for potential confounders, CD was not significantly associated with most outcomes, including all-cause hospitalization (adjusted risk ratio 1.25, 95% CI 0.997-1.56), obesity at 5.5 and 9 years, and various developmental milestones. Subgroup analyses for multiple births and preterm infants showed some differences in point estimates, but were limited by small sample sizes. CD was not significantly associated with adverse long-term child health or developmental outcomes in this Japanese cohort. These findings provide reassurance regarding CD safety when medically indicated in advanced perinatal care settings. Further research with larger samples and longer follow-up is needed, especially for specific subgroups.

en-abstract=　世界において，乳牛の受胎率（妊娠率）が低下しており，家畜の繁殖成績向上のための効果的な治療法が必要とされている．家畜を含む哺乳類において，生殖機能は視床下部−下垂体−性腺軸から分泌されるホルモンによって制御されている．これらのホルモンのうち，性腺刺激ホルモン放出ホルモン（GnRH）のパルス状分泌（GnRH パルス）は，性腺刺激ホルモン分泌と性腺機能に本質的に重要である．したがって，GnRH パルスを制御するメカニズム（GnRH パルスジェネレーター）を解明することは，家畜の生殖技術を向上させるために不可欠である．本総説では，著者らの遺伝子改変ラットモデルを用いた弓状核キスペプチンニューロン（ΚNDy ニューロンとしても知られる）がGnRH パルスジェネレーターの本体であることの直接的な証拠を示した研究を中心として，過去20年間の研究を概説した．また，ΚNDy ニューロンが分泌するニューロキニンB，グルタミン酸，ダイノルフィンA がΚNDy ニューロンの神経活動を同期させ，GnRH パルスを発生させるメカニズムについて論じた．遺伝子改変ラットモデルから得られた知識は，GnRH/ 性腺刺激ホルモンパルスを刺激して，家畜の繁殖能力を向上させる新規繁殖促進剤開発に寄与すると期待できる．
kn-abstract=　Strategies for increasing reproductive performance are needed for domestic animals because for example the conception (pregnancy) rate has decreased in dairy cows around the world. Reproductive function is controlled by hormones released by the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonadal axis in mammals, including domestic animals. Of those hormones, tonic (pulsatile) gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) release is fundamentally important for gonadotropin release and gonadal activity. Therefore, uncovering the mechanism controlling GnRH pulses, that is GnRH pulse generator, is essential to improve reproductive technologies for domestic animals. The present review is focused on the indispensable role of arcuate nucleus (ARC) kisspeptin neurons (also known as KNDy neurons) as the GnRH pulse generator in mammals. First, we give a brief overview of studies on hypothalamic kisspeptin neurons throughout the past two decades. Second, we review studies that have provided direct evidence that ARC kisspeptin neurons serve as the GnRH pulse generator, with a special focus on our gene-modified rat models. Finally, we discuss the mechanism underlying GnRH pulse generation. The knowledge obtained from gene-modified rat models should be clinically important and could be adapted to new tools to improve reproductive performance in livestock by stimulating GnRH/gonadotropin pulses.

kn-title=The perception of plastic waste and composition of boathouse waste in floating villages on Tonl? Sap Lake, Cambodia
en-subtitle=

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Villagers living on Tonl? Sap (TS) Lake have low incomes and no access to basic public services, such as waste management, domestic water, electricity, and health care. Knowledge of the villagers’ perceptions and the composition of the waste from their boathouses will contribute to constructing a waste collection system with community participation within the framework of waste prevention and reduction. This study surveyed residents living in boathouses in four floating villages on TS Lake, Cambodia, regarding their perceptions and boathouse waste composition to assess the status of plastic waste and the villagers’ environmental awareness and their willingness to participate in waste collection. The household waste survey sought to clarify the amount of plastic waste and other recyclable waste discharged from floating houses. The perception survey revealed that in the wet season, 36% of respondents disposed of plastic waste by open burning/dumping and 40% by discharge into TS Lake; in the dry season, 76% disposed of waste by open burning/dumping, and only 4% discharged waste into TS Lake. An analysis of the boathouse plastic waste composition showed that residents of the floating villages generated 40.21 g plastic waste/day/capita, which was much lower than 340 g/day/capita in the USA, 120 g/day/capita in China, and even 70 g/day/capita in Cambodian on average, but higher than the 10 g/day/capita in India. This study proposes a novel and valuable framework to estimate and determine the level of awareness of people in floating villages related to plastic pollution effects and waste components from boathouses. At the same time, the research results provide an essential scientific basis to be able to develop an effective waste collection system in the area of TS Lake. The proposed framework of this study will help the policy decision-makers in the TS Lake area and those in similar geographical regions facing similar problems.

kn-title=Maternal smoking during infancy increases the risk of allergic diseases in children: a nationwide longitudinal survey in Japan
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background The incidence of allergic diseases has been increasing in Japan. In particular, a serious decline in the age of onset of allergic rhinitis has been observed. Passive smoking from parental smoking has a significant impact on children’s health; however, it is difficult to restrict smoking in the home. While various studies have previously reported on the relationship between passive smoking and the development of allergic diseases in children. However, there have been no reports on passive smoking and allergic diseases on a national scale.<br>
Methods Using Japanese national longitudinal survey data (n?=?38,444) for newborns born between May 10 and 24, 2010, we assessed parental smoking habits when their children were 6 months old and investigated the association with the development of allergic diseases until the age of 5.5 years. The risk ratios and 95% confidence intervals for the development of different allergic diseases were analyzed after adjusting for potential confounders using Poisson regression with a robust error variance.<br>
Results The risk ratio for developing allergic rhinitis/allergic conjunctivitis (AR/AC) in children was significantly higher in the maternal smoking groups (?≦?10 cigarettes/day; RR 1.15, 95% CI 1.02?1.30; ≧11 cigarettes/day; RR 1.16, 95% CI 0.93?1.44). Furthermore, associations were found between the maternal smoking group in the presence of paternal smoking and the risk of developing bronchial asthma (?≦?10, RR 1.33 95% CI 1.17?1.52; ≧11, RR 1.71 95% CI 1.38?2.1), food allergy (?≦?10, RR 1.36 95% CI 1.12?1.63; ≧11, RR 1.25 95% CI 0.84?1.86), atopic dermatitis (?≦?10, RR 1.42 95% CI 1.22?1.66; ≧11, RR 1.6 95% CI 1.2?2.13), and AR/AC (?≦?10, RR 1.21 95% CI 1.07?1.36; ≧11, RR 1.35 95% CI 1.09?1.67).<br>
Conclusions Maternal smoking during infancy increases the risk of developing AR/AC in children. Considering paternal smoking, maternal smoking further increased the risk of developing allergic diseases in children, suggesting that reducing parental smoking at home may reduce the risk of developing allergic diseases in children.

kn-title=Resveratrol, a food-derived polyphenol, promotes Melanosomal degradation in skin fibroblasts through coordinated activation of autophagy, lysosomal, and antioxidant pathways
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Resveratrol, a polyphenol found in grapes and peanuts, is known for diverse biological activities, yet its effects on dermal hyperpigmentation (so-called dark spots) remain unexplored. We investigated resveratrol's ability to enhance melanosomal degradation in human dermal fibroblasts. At concentrations of 25-50 mu M, resveratrol increased autophagy as measured by microtubule-associated protein 1A/1B-light chain 3 (LC3)-II/LC3-I ratio and enhanced lysosomal activity as assessed by a lysosomal activity reporter system. RNA sequencing revealed upregulation of lysosomal and autophagy-related genes, including cathepsins. Furthermore, reporter assays showed resveratrol's activation of antioxidant response via nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2)mediated, leading to upregulation of transcription factor EB/transcription factor E3 (TFEB/TFE3), master regulators of lysosomal function. In fibroblasts pre-loaded with melanosomes, resveratrol reduced melanosome content compared to control by day 3. The findings reveal the activation of interconnected autophagy, lysosomal, and antioxidant pathways by resveratrol, suggesting potential applications in functional foods targeting dermal hyperpigmentation.

kn-title=Does International Environmental Certification Change Local Production and Trade Practices? A Case Study of Shrimp Farming in Southern Vietnam
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Studies on international environmental certification (IEC) have primarily focused on how certification can sustainably “upgrade” local production and trading practices. However, not many studies view this market-based governance process from the perspective of local practices and location-specific factors. This study therefore examines how the upstream of the local supply chain influenced global interventions through the case of certification for shrimp farming in the mangroves of southern Vietnam. To clarify various aspects of these interactions, semi-structured interviews were conducted with the provincial government, NGOs, a trading company, shrimp farmers, and middlemen. The results revealed that IEC did not affect local production practices and only partially influenced trade practices. The implementation of IEC was thus at the mercy of the robustness of local society, which was attributed to unique agroecology, production systems, and upstream customary economic practices.

kn-title=Exogenous expression of PGC-1α during in vitro maturation impairs the developmental competence of porcine oocytes
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Objectives of the current study were to examine the effects of exogenous expression of PGC-1α, which is a transcription factor responsive for controlling mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) replication, mitochondria quantity control, mitochondrial biogenesis, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) maintenance, in porcine oocytes during in-vitro maturation (IVM) on the developmental competence, as well as mitochondrial quantity and function. Exogenous over-expression of PGC-1α by injection of the mRNA construct into oocytes 20 h after the start of IVM culture significantly increased the copy number of mtDNA in the oocytes, but reduced the incidences of oocytes matured to the metaphase-II stage after the IVM culture for totally 44 h and completely suppressed the early development in vitro to the blastocyst stage following parthenogenetic activation. The exogenous expression of PGC-1α also significantly induced spindle defects and chromosome misalignments. Furthermore, markedly higher ROS levels were observed in the PGC-1α-overexpressed mature oocytes, whereas mRNA level of SOD1, encoded for a ROS scavenging enzyme, was decreased. These results conclude that forced expression of PGC-1α successfully increase mtDNA copy number but led to increased ROS production, evidently by downregulation of SOD1 gene expression, inducement of spindle aberration/chromosomal misalignment, and consequently reduction in the meiotic and developmental competences of porcine oocytes.

kn-title=The impact of cumulus cell viability and pre-culture with the healthy cell mass on brilliant cresyl blue (BCB) staining assessment and meiotic competence of suboptimal porcine oocytes

kn-abstract=Objectives of the present study were to investigate the characteristics including glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity, as determined by Brilliant Cresyl Blue (BCB) staining, of suboptimal porcine oocytes and to enhance the meiotic competence of those through pre-culture with cumulus cell masses (CCMs). Percentage of oocyte-cumulus complexes (OCCs) derived from small follicles (SF; <3 mm in diameter) containing the oocytes that were assessed as BCB-negative (BCB-) was significantly higher than those derived from medium follicles (MF; 3?6 mm in diameter). Degrees of dead cumulus cells were significantly higher in OCCs containing BCB- oocytes, regardless of the origin of OCCs (MF vs. SF), than those containing BCB-positive (BCB+) ones. Exposing OCCs containing BCB+ oocytes to the apoptosis inducer, carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone, for 20 h significantly induced the transition to BCB- and meiotic progression of exposed OCCs were significantly reduced in both SF and MF derived ones. Transit of BCB- oocytes to BCB+ was induced when OCCs were pre-cultured with CCMs of MF derived OCCs containing BCB+ oocytes for 20 h before IVM. This pre-culture also significantly increased the meiotic competence of BCB- oocytes, particularly in SF derived ones. However, reactive oxygen species levels were significantly higher in BCB+ oocytes as compared with BCB- ones, regardless of pre-culture with CCMs, whereas no significant differences were found in the ATP contents among the treatment groups. In conclusion, the BCB result of oocytes could be regulated by the healthy status and content of surrounding cumulus cells and the meiotic competence of suboptimal BCB- porcine oocytes is improved by pre-culture with healthy CCMs.

kn-title=Effect of 2-week postpartum check-ups on screening positive for postpartum depression: a population-based cohort study using instrumental variable estimation in Japan
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: Postpartum depression is experienced by approximately 10% of women and affects the health and development of their children. Although it is recommended that all mothers have the opportunity for early detection and intervention for postpartum depression, it is unclear whether early postpartum check-ups help to reduce postpartum depression.<br>
Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of 2-week postpartum check-ups on screening positive for postpartum depression in Japan.<br>
Methods: This was a population-based cohort study that used the administrative database of Tsuyama, Japan. Participants were women who received postpartum home visits from a public health nurse in Tsuyama during the fiscal years 2017?2019. Data were obtained on participant’s attendance at a 2-week postpartum check-up and their responses on the Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale. Owing to the initiation of a publicly funded postpartum check-up programme, participants were pseudo-randomly assigned to receive/not receive a 2-week postpartum check-up. We conducted instrumental variable estimation to assess the causal effects of the check-up on screening positive for postpartum depression.<br>
Results: The characteristics of the 1,382 participants did not differ by fiscal year of childbirth. We found a 6.7% (95% confidence interval 2.2?11.2) reduction in the prevalence of screening positive for postpartum depression as an effect of 2-week postpartum check-ups among women received 1-month postpartum home visits.<br>
Conclusion: The results suggest that 2-week postpartum check-ups are effective in reducing the prevalence of screening positive for postpartum depression among 1-month postpartum women. Despite some limitations, early postpartum care could reduce postpartum depression.

kn-title=Effects of aged microplastics on paddy soil properties and greenhouse gas emissions under laboratory aerobic conditions
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Microplastics (MPs) formed after changes in chemical or physical properties may alter soil properties, which in turn may affect microbial activities and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. However, few studies have focused on the effects of aged MPs changes on soil properties and greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the impact of MPs with different aging times on soil GHG emissions and dissolved organic carbon (DOC). Low-density polyethylene (PE) and polylactic acid (PLA) were treated with ultraviolet (UV) irradiation for 0?2?weeks. Soil was incubated with PE or PLA 1% (w/w) concentration at 60% water holding capacity (WHC) for 35?days. Emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2) were measured on days 0, 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, 21, 28, and 35. Results showed that CO2 and N2O emissions were higher (p?<?0.05) in MPs-amended treatments than those without MPs and increased with MPs age. The addition of virgin PE did not affect soil DOC content, whereas aged PE and all PLA additions significantly increased soil DOC content on day 0, probably because UV irradiation caused the degradation of MPs to smaller molecules. In addition, aged MPs addition altered DOC spectral characteristics on day 7, possibly because aged PE and PLA promote microbial decomposition of organic matter by altering soil properties. Changes in soil DOC content and specific ultraviolet absorbance (SUVA) by aged PE and PLA probably promoted the emissions of CO2 and N2O compared to virgin MPs or soil only. Our study revealed that aged PE and PLA promote GHG emissions from soil by changing DOC contents and qualities.

kn-title=Impact of high blood pressure on the risk of mortality among Japanese people aged 65?years and older
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Aim: The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of abnormal blood pressure on the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in a large cohort of older Japanese people aged ?65?years.<br>
Methods: This cohort study enrolled 54?760 participants from Okayama City aged ?65?years who underwent basic health checkups from April 2006 to March 2008. Based on blood pressure, the participants were divided into six categories, from C1 (lowest) to C6 (highest). To assess the association of blood pressure with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, we used survival analysis to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) for all-cause mortality and subdistribution HRs (SHRs) for cardiovascular mortality on C3. We then repeated the analyses based on age groups (65?74?years, 75?84?years, and ?85?years).<br>
Results: The fully adjusted HRs for all-cause mortality, which included all individual potential confounders, were 1.11 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.04?1.19) for C5 and 1.23 (95% CI: 1.09?1.38) for C6, respectively. The fully adjusted SHRs for cardiovascular mortality were 1.11 (95% CI: 1.01?1.21) for C4, 1.19 (95% CI: 1.05?1.34) for C5, and 1.36 (95% CI: 1.09?1.70) for C6. In the age-stratification, an increased risk of hypotension was observed with older age. The HR for C1 was 1.28 (95% CI: 1.16?1.41) for ?85?years.<br>
Conclusions: Hypertension increased the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality among those aged 65?74 and 75?84?years, but not among those aged ?85?years. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2024; ??: ?????.

kn-abstract=　筆者等は，音楽授業での指揮状況を向上させる方策として，授業での教員の立ち位置と指揮の仕方に注目した。異なる立ち位置と異なる指揮の仕方で演奏した場合，各々の演奏が音響学的にどのように変化するのか音カメラ装置で測定した。併せて，各々の演奏に対して受講学生の印象調査を行った。音響特性から，指揮の仕方によって，音節が明瞭になること（スペクトログラムの濃さ），ビブラートに変化が見られること（「ゆれ」の表れ），音量が変化すること（音圧レベル），音価が異なってくること（時間軸波形）が示された。印象調査からは，指揮者が，ピアノの位置で指揮をするのに比べて，合唱者の前で指揮をすることで，アゴーギク，ディナーミック，表現の豊かさに対する演奏の評価が大きく反転した。指揮の仕方では，形式的な指揮に比べて，音楽的な要素を入れた指揮をすると，アゴーギク，ディナーミック，息の流れの演奏評価が高くなった。さらに，音響特性と音楽表現との関連性が視覚的に確認され，特に，「ゆれ」（ビブラート）の頻出は，音楽表現を豊かにすることが示された。

kn-abstract=A surface coating of polymer particles of different hydrophobicity and wide-ranged size is helpful for the surface modification of materials such as woody thin board (WTB) derived from biomass. A preparation method for polymer particles was, in this study, proposed using a capillary-type flow system. Under hydrothermal conditions, the refinement of dispersed oil droplets in water (O/W emulsions) and the polymerization reaction could be simultaneously advanced, and polymer particles of polystyrene (PS), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), and poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) with a particle size of about 100 nm could be synthesized. The coating of polymer particles gave an improved effect on the water repellency of WTBs due to the hydrophobicity of polymer particles and an alteration of surface roughness, and it also provided long-term stability (more than 6 years).

kn-title=Regional-scale evaluation of tertiary irrigation system in Muda Irrigation Scheme from space
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A tertiary irrigation system is essential for efficient water management in large-scale irrigation scheme and requires regular evaluation to understand their effectiveness. The current water balance method for tertiary irrigation system evaluation requires extensive data, making continuous monitoring over vast areas unfeasible. A better approach using geospatial data from the Google Earth Engine (GEE) is introduces to evaluate the efficiency of tertiary irrigation systems on a regional scale, aiding water management strategies. This study aims to (1) define the rice cultivation boundary for accurate data collection and (2) quantitatively evaluate irrigation system performance using specific indicators. Remote sensing evapotranspiration (RS-ET) and yield derived from Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) were collected within rice cultivation boundary across 60 irrigation blocks, including 14 blocks equipped with tertiary irrigation system in Region II of the Muda Irrigation Scheme. Three irrigation system performance indicators (equity, adequacy, and water productivity) were used as a key metric in over four rice-growing seasons to evaluate tertiary irrigation system. Results reveal that tertiary irrigation system performance varies with the current three-phase water management strategy. Equity performance was highest during the off-season, particularly in phase 1 (2?8?%). Adequacy was moderate across all phases and seasons (median: 0.6?0.67), while water productivity showed consistent strength in phases 1 and 3, with fluctuations in phase 2, across seasons. This study underscores the cost-effectiveness and efficiency of using geospatial data from space for continuous regional-scale monitoring, highlighting areas for improvement in the current water management strategy.

kn-title=In vitro fertilization and long-term child health and development: nationwide birth cohort study in Japan
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The aim of this study is to compare long-term health outcomes between IVF-conceived children and non-IVF-conceived children in Japan, in the context of strong recommendation for single embryo transfer. Using data from a nationwide birth cohort linked with perinatal database, this study analyzed 2140 children born in Japan in May 2010. It compared child health and development outcomes up to 9 years of age between IVF-conceived and non-IVF-conceived children (binary exposure). A Poisson regression with robust variance to estimate the risk ratios for the association between IVF and various long-term child health and developmental outcomes. After adjusting for confounding factors, no significant differences were observed between IVF-conceived and naturally conceived children for most outcomes, including hospitalization, obesity, and developmental milestones. IVF-conceived children showed a slightly lower risk of attention problems at 8 years (adjusted Risk Ratio [aRR]: 0.73, 95% CI: 0.53?1.00). In subgroup analyses, IVF-conceived term children and singletons demonstrated reduced risk of cognitive delays at 5.5 years (aRR: 0.31, 95% CI: 0.10?0.96 and aRR: 0.37, 95% CI: 0.14?0.98, respectively).<br>
Conclusion: In this Japanese cohort, IVF conception was not associated with adverse long-term health or developmental outcomes. These findings provide reassurance about the safety of IVF, particularly in the context of single embryo transfer policies. Further research is needed to explore specific IVF protocols and subgroups.

kn-title=Effectiveness of the Original COVID-19 Vaccine against COVID-19 Exacerbations during the Omicron Wave: A Population-based Study in Okayama, Japan
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Introduction: In Japan, approximately 97 million individuals have received their primary two doses of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine at the end of 2022. In this study, we aim to examine the effectiveness of the primary vaccines and compare its efficacy to booster vaccine shots in terms of preventing COVID-19 exacerbations during the Omicron-predominant period in Japan.<br>
Methods: For this analysis, we have collected all the confirmed COVID-19-positive cases from different medical institutions in Okayama City and have also utilized the information from the public Vaccination Record System. Taking the number of vaccinations into consideration, we then conducted a population-based study to assess the effectiveness of the two primary vaccine doses in preventing COVID-19 exacerbations during the Omicron waves. Our primary and secondary outcomes were COVID-19 exacerbations with respiratory failure (i.e., oxygen saturation on room air ? 93%, requiring supplemental oxygen), intensive care unit admission and/or mechanical ventilator requirement, or death, in accordance with the Japanese COVID-19 guidelines, and pneumonia during the course of COVID-19 infection, respectively.<br>
Results: In total, 95,329 COVID-19-positive individuals, aged 5 years and above, were included in this analysis (study period from January 1 to September 10, 2022). As per our findings, the effectiveness of the primary two doses against COVID-19 exacerbations compared with those who had never been vaccinated was 55.5% (95% confidential interval [CI]: 32.6-71.7), whereas it was higher after the third dose (76.9%; 95% CI: 66.7-84.0) and the fourth dose (75.7%; 95% CI: 58.8-85.7). Effectiveness was sustained for ? 5 months after the third vaccination, and preventive effectiveness was observed in individuals aged ? 65 years.<br>
Conclusions: As per the results of this study, we can conclude that the efficacy of the primary two doses of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine can be further strengthened in terms of preventing COVID-19 exacerbations by administering third and fourth booster vaccine shots. The additional bivalent vaccine is anticipated to further increase its efficacy against the Omicron strain, suggesting that individuals who have not received their booster shots yet should consider getting them to prevent COVID-19 exacerbations.

kn-title=Disease and Injury Trends following Heavy Rains in Western Japan in 2018
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Introduction: Torrential rains occurred in Okayama in western Japan in July 2018, forcing local residents to evacuate. Few studies have reported early-phase disease and injury trends among patients following torrential rains. Thus, in this study, we assessed the illness and injury trends among patients who visited temporary medical facilities located in the areas affected by the 2018 torrential rains; these facilities opened 10 d after the disaster.<br>
Methods: We evaluated the trends among patients who visited a medical clinic located in the area in western Japan affected by heavy rains in 2018. We reviewed medical charts related to 1,301 outpatient visits and conducted descriptive analyses.<br>
Results: More than half of the patients were over 60 years old. The patients experienced mild injuries (7.9% of total visits) as well as common diseases such as hypertensive diseases (30%), diabetes mellitus (7.8%), acute upper respiratory infections (5.4%), skin diseases (5.4%), and eye diseases (4.8%). Hypertensive diseases were the main cause of a visit in any week. Eye problems were the second-highest reason for a visit in the first week, but there was a relative decrease from the first to the third week. Additionally, the proportion of injuries and skin diseases increased from the first to the second week, from 7.9% to 11.1% for injuries, and from 3.9% to 6.7% for skin diseases.<br>
Conclusions: The types of diseases changed on a weekly basis. Older adults needed medical support for longer than other age groups. Prior preparedness such as earlier deployment of such temporary clinics can help mitigate the damage to the victims.

kn-title=Rapid thawing of frozen bull spermatozoa by transient exposure to 70 °C improves the viability, motility and mitochondrial health
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Up to now, the definitive conclusion of the positive effects of rapid transient thawing at higher temperatures for shorter durations has not been obtained yet and is still under discussion due to some contradictory findings and limited assessment of post-thawed parameters. The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the effectiveness of rapid thawing in water at 70 °C by using various post-thawed parameters of frozen bull spermatozoa. Experiment 1, monitoring the change of temperature inside frozen bull straw thawed in water at different temperatures. Experiment 2, evaluation of various post-thawed characteristics of frozen bull spermatozoa thawed in water at different temperatures by using a computer-assisted sperm analysis, flow cytometry and immunocytochemistry. The time it took for the temperature inside the straw to warm up to 15 °C was nearly twice as faster when the straw was thawed in 70 °C water compared with 39 °C. Although there were differences among bulls, viability, motility, and mitochondrial membrane potential of spermatozoa thawed at 70 °C for 8 seconds and stabilized at 39 °C for 52 seconds were significantly higher than those of controls (thawed at 39 °C for 60 seconds) at 0 and 3 h after thawing. Just after thawing, however, there were no differences in acrosome integrity and distribution of phospholipase C zeta1, whereas mitochondrial reactive oxygen species production was significantly lower in spermatozoa thawed at 70 °C. From these results, we conclude that rapid thawing at 70 °C and then stabilization at 39 °C significantly improves viability, motility and mitochondrial health of bull spermatozoa rather than conventional thawing at 39 °C. The beneficial effect of rapid transient thawing could be due to shorter exposure to temperatures outside the physiological range, consequently maintaining mitochondrial health.

kn-title=A nationwide longitudinal survey of infantile injury and its recurrence in Japan
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Injury recurrence in young children is a significant public health concern, as it may indicate an unfavorable home environment. This study evaluates whether infantile injuries increase recurrence during preschool years, contributing to more effective prevention strategies for vulnerable families. The study included 20,191 children from "The Longitudinal Survey of Babies in the 21st Century," a representative sample of infants born in Japan between May 10 and 24, 2010. We conducted a logistic regression analysis to compare injury recurrence risk between children aged 18 months to seven years with and without infantile injury histories. The study revealed that infants with a history of injuries had a higher risk of subsequent hospital visits for injuries during preschool years (crude Odds Ratio (cOR) 1.52, 95% CI, 1.41-1.64, adjusted OR (aOR) 1.48, 95% CI 1.37-1.60). Specific injuries, such as falls (aOR 1.34, 95% CI, 1.26-1.43), pinches (aOR 1.22, 95% CI, 1.15-1.29), drowning (aOR 1.29, 95% CI, 1.19-1.40), ingestion (aOR 1.35, 95% CI, 1.17-1.55), and burns (aOR 1.47, 95% CI, 1.31-1.65), independently increased the risk of future injuries.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The drought impacts in the Dakbla watershed were assessed based on a combination of hydrological modeling and drought indices. Three drought indices, the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI), Standardized Soil Moisture Index (SSI), and Streamflow Drought Index (SDI) were utilized to evaluate the drought features of meteo-hydrology and agriculture. The results indicated that these indices are well adapted to the local conditions, especially the 12-month time scale. Evaluations of drought features on the watershed scale could provide more specific information regarding drought risk than regional-scale/district-level assessments, because a watershed is a hydrologically fundamental unit to consider water resources management. Additionally, evaluations of drought impacts using the SSI showed longer and higher trends than those using the SPI and SDI in terms of drought duration and frequency. Considering the spatial distribution of drought frequency, the areas predominated by agricultural land in the target watershed had higher drought risk. Thus, assessment of agricultural droughts along with meteo-hydrological droughts is extremely important to support realistic local drought management strategies by considering water availability, water balance, and soil characteristics, especially in specific agricultural areas.

kn-title=Evaluation and selection of a set of CMIP6 GCMs for water resource modeling in the poorly gauged complex terrain of the Tana River basin in Kenya
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The Tana River basin is among the least monitored in terms of meteorological data in Kenya. The Kenya Meteorological Department (KMD) provided data on a ten-day timescale, which is not adequate for water resource evaluation. To bridge this data gap, there is a growing need to leverage General Circulation Models (GCMs) and global datasets to assess current and future water resources in this basin. This study focused on evaluating the performance of 19 CMIP6 GCMs concerning precipitation (pr), maximum temperature (tasmax), and minimum temperature (tasmin) for the complex terrain of the Tana River basin. This involved a rigorous process of disaggregating the data provided by the KMD into a daily timescale for downscaling. The GCMs’ historical output was prepared using the Climate Data Operator (CDO) in Cygwin. The Kling Gupta Efficiency (KGE) was computed for each variable at three stations: Nyeri (upstream), Kitui (midstream), and Bura (downstream). The KGE results were validated using Taylor statistics. Five GCMs, CMCC-ESM2, MPI-ESM1-2-HR, ACCESS-CM2, NorESM2-MM, and GFDL-ESM4, performed best with a multivariable Multi-station KGE statistic of 0.455?0.511. The outputs from these selected GCMs were subsequently downscaled for later use in assessing the water resources and crop water demand in the basin.

kn-title=Small-for-Gestational-Age Status and the Risk of Kawasaki Disease: A Nationwide Birth Cohort in Japan
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Kawasaki disease (KD) is a pediatric disease of unknown etiology that commonly affects infants in East Asia. Infants born small for gestational age (SGA) have weaker immune systems and are more susceptible to infection. Using data from a nationwide Japanese birth cohort study conducted in 2010 (n=34,579), we investigated whether SGA increases the risk of KD. SGA was defined as birth weight below the 10th percentile for gestational age. The outcome was hospitalization for KD between 6 and 30 months of age. The association between SGA and hospitalization for KD, adjusted for child and maternal factors, was examined using logistic regression. Of the 231 children hospitalized for KD, 9.5% were SGA. Further statistical analysis showed that SGA did not increase the odds ratio (OR) of hospitalization for KD (adjusted OR 1.12, 95% confidence interval 0.71-1.75). This result was not changed with stratification by early daycare attendance and preterm status. Reasons for the lack of association may include the multifactorial pathogenesis of KD; in addition, the types of infections to which SGA infants are predisposed may differ from those triggering KD. Overall, our large nationwide study found no association between SGA and KD.

kn-title=A Novel C-Terminal Truncated Bacteriocin Found by Comparison between Leuconostoc mesenteroides 406 and 213M0 Isolated from Mongolian Traditional Fermented Milk, Airag
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Bacteriocins produced by lactic acid bacteria are known to be useful tools for food biopreservation and fermentation control. Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. mesenteroides 406 and 213M0 isolated from different samples of Mongolian traditional fermented milk, airag, had been reported to produce listericidal bacteriocin-like inhibitory substances with similar but slightly different properties. In this study, the antibacterial properties and the related gene sequences of both strains were compared, and then their bacteriocins were purified and identified. Strain 406 was superior to strain 213M0 in cell growth and antibacterial activity against many strains. However, the activity of 213M0 was stronger than that of 406 against a few strains. DNA sequencing revealed two and three plasmids in 406 and 213M0, respectively, and each one of them harbored an almost identical mesentericin Y105-B105 gene cluster. Removal of these plasmids resulted in a complete loss of activity, indicating that the antibacterial activity of both strains was generated by bacteriocins encoded on the plasmids. Mesentericins Y105 and B105 were purified from both cultures, and another novel bacteriocin, named mesentericin M, was identified from the 213M0 culture only. Its structural gene was coded on a 213M0 plasmid and, surprisingly, its C-terminal three amino acid residues were post-translationally cleaved. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a C-terminal truncated bacteriocin. In conclusion, the novel bacteriocin should be mainly responsible for the difference in antibacterial properties between the two strains.

kn-title=Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al合金の逆形状記憶効果と靭性回復
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al alloys exhibit shape memory (SM) and reverse shape memory (RSM) effects. When an alloy sample that has been strained by external force at room temperature is heated, the strain recovers and SM effect develops at around 300℃, but as the temperature increases further, the shape changes in the opposite direction due to RSM effect at around 450℃. This RSM effect has potential applications in forming processes such as thin-walled pipes, but has the disadvantage that the RSM treatment makes the material very brittle. Therefore, in this study, a heat treatment to restore toughness while maintaining the shape after forming was investigated. The alloy quenched from 1050℃ had a microstructure consisting of a β matrix phase and α′′-martensite (α′′Mq). Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) results showed that the continuous heating process occurred in the following order: α′′Mq → β reverse transformation, ω formation, ω disappearance, thermally induced α′′iso phase formation, α precipitation and α → β transformation. Ageing at 300℃, where the SM effect appears, caused significant embrittlement due to the formation of the ageing ω phase. Ageing treatment at 450℃, where the RSM effect is obtained, resulted in the formation of a fine α phase, which also caused significant embrittlement. On the other hand, additional aging at 600℃ for 1.8 ks after RSM treatment significantly improved the toughness and produced material properties comparable to aerospace material specifications. It was found that the embrittlement in the RSM treatment was due to the precipitation of fine α phase, and that the growth of α phase with a width of about 0.2 ?m or more was required for toughness recovery. It was also found that the specimen shape formed by the RSM treatment hardly changed after the additional heat treatment of 1.8 ks at 600℃.

kn-title=Nutrient Requirements Shape the Preferential Habitat of Allorhizobium vitis VAR03-1, a Commensal Bacterium, in the Rhizosphere of Arabidopsis thaliana
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A diverse range of commensal bacteria inhabit the rhizosphere, influencing host plant growth and responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. While root-released nutrients can define soil microbial habitats, the bacterial factors involved in plant?microbe interactions are not well characterized. In this study, we investigated the colonization patterns of two plant disease biocontrol agents, Allorhizobium vitis VAR03-1 and Pseudomonas protegens Cab57, in the rhizosphere of Arabidopsis thaliana using Murashige and Skoog (MS) agar medium. VAR03-1 formed colonies even at a distance from the roots, preferentially in the upper part, while Cab57 colonized only the root surface. The addition of sucrose to the agar medium resulted in excessive proliferation of VAR03-1, similar to its pattern without sucrose, whereas Cab57 formed colonies only near the root surface. Overgrowth of both bacterial strains upon nutrient supplementation inhibited host growth, independent of plant immune responses. This inhibition was reduced in the VAR03-1 ΔrecA mutant, which exhibited increased biofilm formation, suggesting that some activities associated with the free-living lifestyle rather than the sessile lifestyle may be detrimental to host growth. VAR03-1 grew in liquid MS medium with sucrose alone, while Cab57 required both sucrose and organic acids. Supplementation of sugars and organic acids allowed both bacterial strains to grow near and away from Arabidopsis roots in MS agar. These results suggest that nutrient requirements for bacterial growth may determine their growth habitats in the rhizosphere, with nutrients released in root exudates potentially acting as a limiting factor in harnessing microbiota.

kn-title=Cyclic Oligosaccharide-Induced Modulation of Immunoglobulin A Reactivity to Gut Bacteria Contributes to Alterations in the Bacterial Community Structure
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Immunoglobulin A (IgA) is a major gut antibody that coats commensal gut bacteria and contributes to shaping a stable gut bacterial composition. Although previous studies have shown that cyclic oligosaccharides, including cyclic nigerosyl-1,6-nigerose (CNN) and cyclodextrins (CDs, including alpha CD, beta CD, and gamma CD), alter the gut bacterial composition, it remains unclear whether cyclic oligosaccharides modify the IgA coating of gut bacteria, which relates to cyclic oligosaccharide-induced alteration of the gut bacterial composition. To address this issue, mice were maintained for 12 weeks on diets containing CNN, alpha CD, beta CD, or gamma CD; the animals' feces were evaluated for their bacterial composition and the IgA coating index (ICI), a measure of the degree of IgA coating of bacteria. We observed that the intake of each cyclic oligosaccharide altered the gut bacterial composition, with changes in the ICI found at both the phylum and genus levels. The ICI for Bacillota, Lachnospiraceae NK4A136 group, UC Lachnospiraceae, and Tuzzerella were significantly and positively correlated with the relative abundance (RA) in total bacteria for these bacteria; in contrast, significant correlations were not seen for other phyla and genera. Our observations suggest that cyclic oligosaccharide-induced modulation of the IgA coating of gut bacteria may partly relate to changes in the community structure of the gut bacteria.

kn-title=Illumina-based transcriptomic analysis of the fast-growing leguminous tree Acacia crassicarpa: functional gene annotation and identification of novel SSR-markers
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Acacia crassicarpa is a fast-growing leguminous tree that is widely cultivated in tropical areas such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Australia, and southern China. This tree has versatile utility in timber, furniture, and pulp production. Illumina sequencing of A. crassicarpa was conducted, and the raw data of 124,410,892 reads were filtered and assembled de novo into 93,317 unigenes, with a total of 84,411,793 bases. Blast2GO annotation, Benchmark Universal Single-Copy Ortholog evaluation, and GO-term classification produced a catalogue of unigenes for studying primary metabolism, phytohormone signaling, and transcription factors. Massive transcriptomic analysis has identified microsatellites composed of simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci representing di-, tri-, and tetranucleotide repeat units in the predicted open reading frames. Polymorphism was induced by PCR amplification of microsatellite loci located in several genes encoding auxin response factors and other transcription factors, which successfully distinguished 16 local trees of A. crassicarpa tested, representing potentially exploitable molecular markers for efficient tree breeding for plantation and biomass exploitation.

kn-title=Quercetin Attenuates Acetaldehyde-Induced Cytotoxicity via the Heme Oxygenase-1-Dependent Antioxidant Mechanism in Hepatocytes
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=It is still unclear whether or how quercetin influences the toxic events induced by acetaldehyde in hepatocytes, though quercetin has been reported to mitigate alcohol-induced mouse liver injury. In this study, we evaluated the modulating effect of quercetin on the cytotoxicity induced by acetaldehyde in mouse hepatoma Hepa1c1c7 cells, the frequently used cellular hepatocyte model. The pretreatment with quercetin significantly inhibited the cytotoxicity induced by acetaldehyde. The treatment with quercetin itself had an ability to enhance the total ALDH activity, as well as the ALDH1A1 and ALDH3A1 gene expressions. The acetaldehyde treatment significantly enhanced the intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) level, whereas the quercetin pretreatment dose-dependently inhibited it. Accordingly, the treatment with quercetin itself significantly up-regulated the representative intracellular antioxidant-related gene expressions, including heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), glutamate-cysteine ligase, catalytic subunit (GCLC), and cystine/glutamate exchanger (xCT), that coincided with the enhancement of the total intracellular glutathione (GSH) level. Tin protoporphyrin IX (SNPP), a typical HO-1 inhibitor, restored the quercetin-induced reduction in the intracellular ROS level, whereas buthionine sulphoximine, a representative GSH biosynthesis inhibitor, did not. SNPP also cancelled the quercetin-induced cytoprotection against acetaldehyde. These results suggest that the low-molecular-weight antioxidants produced by the HO-1 enzymatic reaction are mainly attributable to quercetin-induced cytoprotection.

kn-title=Lentil adaptation to drought stress: response, tolerance, and breeding approaches
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) is a cool season legume crop that plays vital roles in food and nutritional security, mostly in the least developed countries. Lentil is often cultivated in dry and semi-dry regions, where the primary abiotic factor is drought, which negatively impacts lentil growth and development, resulting in a reduction of yield. To withstand drought-induced multiple negative effects, lentil plants evolved a variety of adaptation strategies that can be classified within three broad categories of drought tolerance mechanisms (i.e., escape, avoidance, and tolerance). Lentil adapts to drought by the modulation of various traits in the root system, leaf architecture, canopy structure, branching, anatomical features, and flowering process. Furthermore, the activation of certain defensive biochemical pathways as well as the regulation of gene functions contributes to lentil drought tolerance. Plant breeders typically employ conventional and mutational breeding approaches to develop lentil varieties that can withstand drought effects; however, little progress has been made in developing drought-tolerant lentil varieties using genomics-assisted technologies. This review highlights the current understanding of morpho-physiological, biochemical, and molecular mechanisms of lentil adaptation to drought stress. We also discuss the potential application of omics-assisted breeding approaches to develop lentil varieties with superior drought tolerance traits.

kn-title=Kinetics of SARS-CoV-2 antibody titers after booster vaccinations during an Omicron surge in Japan
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: Despite the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants and waning immunity after initial vaccination, data on antibody kinetics following booster doses, particularly those adapted to Omicron subvariants like XBB.1.5, remain limited. This study assesses the kinetics of anti-spike protein receptor-binding domain (S-RBD) IgG antibody titers post-booster vaccination in a Japanese population during the Omicron variant epidemic.<br>
Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted in Bizen City, Japan, from November 2023 to January 2024. Participants included residents and workers aged ?18 years, with at least three COVID-19 vaccinations. Antibody levels were measured from venous blood samples. The study analyzed 424 participants and 821 antibody measurements, adjusting for variables such as age, sex, underlying conditions, and prior infection status. Mixed-effects models were employed to describe the kinetics of log-transformed S-RBD antibody titers.<br>
Results: The study found that S-RBD antibody titers declined over time but increased with the number of booster vaccinations, particularly those adapted to Omicron and its subvariant XBB.1.5 (Pfizer-BioNTech Omicron-compatible: 0.156, 95%CI ?0.032 to 0.344; Pfizer-BioNTech XBB-compatible: 0.226; 95%CI ?0.051 to 0.504; Moderna Omicron-compatible: 0.279, 95%CI 0.012 to 0.546; and Moderna XBB-compatible: 0.338, 95%CI ?0.052 to 0.728). Previously infected individuals maintained higher antibody titers, which declined more gradually compared to uninfected individuals (coefficient for interaction with time 0.006; 95%CI 0.001 to 0.011). Sensitivity analyses using Generalized Estimating Equations and interval-censored random intercept model confirmed the robustness of these findings.<br>
Conclusions: The study provides specific data on antibody kinetics post-booster vaccination, including the XBB.1.5-adapted vaccine, in a highly vaccinated Japanese population. The results highlight the importance of considering individual demographics and prior infection history in optimizing vaccination strategies.

kn-title=Death Feigning in Larvae of Scorpionflies (Mecoptera: Panorpidae): Frequency and Postural Changes Based on Larval Instars
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Death feigning is thought to have evolved primarily as a predator avoidance behavior, and has been reported in 10 of the 31 orders of insects. However, there have been no reports of death-feigning behavior in Mecoptera species. We found that larvae of two scorpionfly species, Panorpa japonica and P. pryeri, showed death feigning in response to external stimuli by brush poking stimulation. First, we examined the frequencies of death-feigning postures. The two species showed two different postures of death feigning, “straight” and “ball.” Most of the 1st instar larvae of P. japonica and P. pryeri adopted the straight death-feigning posture. Next, we examined duration of death feigning. As the larval instar progressed, the death-feigning posture shifted from straight to ball in both Panorpa species. In P. japonica, the longest durations of death feigning were found in the 2nd to 3rd instars, while the longest duration of death feigning was found in the late 4th instar in P. pryeri larvae.

kn-title=Reduced fitness in losers of leg-biting male combat compared to uncontested males in Zophobas atratus
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Sexual dimorphism and male combat are observed in many species. Often, the outcome of male combat affects the outcome of subsequent combats, mating success, number of sperm, and fitness of the male’s offspring. Also, the quantity and quality of sperm may be regulated by winning or losing, depending on species ecology and mating system. However, very few studies have experimentally examined the influence of fight outcomes on male offspring fitness. We studied male combat in the giant mealworm (Zophobas atratus) in which males bite each other’s hind legs. We hypothesized that subsequent fitness could differ between winners and losers in the escalated male combat of this species. We measured several fitness traits including the number of eggs laid by mated females, and the number of hatches sired by uncontested males, winners, and losers in escalated and non-escalated combat, and compared the fitness of each winner and loser to that of an uncontested male. We also measured mating duration. The numbers of eggs and the percentages of hatched eggs of losers in the escalated combat were significantly reduced compared to that of the uncontested males. This reduction may be due to injuries from escalated leg- biting fights and a result of the sperm amount of the uncontested males being greater than that of the loser males.

kn-title=Unabsorbed Fecal Fat Content Correlates with a Reduction of Immunoglobulin a Coating of Gut Bacteria in High‐Lard Diet‐Fed Mice
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Scope: Immunoglobulin A (IgA) selectively coats gut bacteria and contributes to regulatory functions in gastrointestinal inflammation and glucose metabolism. Excess intake of lard leads to decrease in the IgA coating of gut bacteria, although the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. This study validates how unabsorbed fat derived from a high-lard diet in the gut affects the IgA coating of bacteria, as assessed in mouse models using three types of dietary fat (lard, medium-, and long-chain triglycerides [MLCTs], and medium-chain triglycerides [MCTs]) exhibiting different digestibilities.<br>
Methods and results: C57BL/6J mice are maintained on diets containing lard, MLCTs, or MCTs at 7% or 30% w/w for 10 weeks (n = 6 per group). The fecal fatty acid concentration is measured to quantify unabsorbed fat content. The ratio of IgA-coated bacteria to total bacteria (IgA coating ratio) in the feces is measured by flow cytometry. Compared to lard-fed mice, MLCT- and MCT-fed mice exhibit lower fecal concentrations of palmitic acid, stearic acid, and oleic acid and higher IgA coating ratios at both 7% and 30% dietary fat, and these parameters exhibit significant negative correlations.<br>
Conclusion: Unabsorbed fat content in the gut may result in attenuated IgA coating of bacteria in high-lard diet-fed mice.<br>

kn-title=Freeze-thaw Resistance of Concrete using Ground Granulated Blast-furnace Slag and Blast-furnace Slag Sand in Salt Water
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The freeze-thaw resistance of concrete is significantly lower in salt water than in fresh water. Concrete deteriorates through repeated freezing and thawing, but in salt water, freezing alone leads to destruction. This paper investigated the effect of calcium hydroxide in concrete on the failure of concrete under such low temperatures. Calcium hydroxide precipitates at the transition zone between aggregate and cement paste due to the hydration of cement. The lower the temperature and the higher the concentration of salt water, the more calcium hydroxide dissolves. From concrete, more calcium hydroxide is eluted in salt water than in fresh water. This accelerates the deterioration of mortar and concrete due to freeze-thaw action. Mortar and concrete using ground granulated blast-furnace slag produces less calcium hydroxide. In mortar and concrete using blast-furnace slag sand, calcium hydroxide precipitated around the aggregate reacts with cement paste and blast-furnace slag sand to modify the transition zone. From these results, it was clarified that concrete using blast-furnace slag exhibits high freeze-thaw resistance even in salt water.<br>
This paper is the English translation of the authors’ previous work [Ayano, T., Fujii, T. and Okazaki, K., (2023). “Freeze-thaw resistance of concrete using ground granulated blast-furnace and blast-furnace slag sand in salt water.” Japanese Journal of JSCE, 79(12), 23-00042. (in Japanese)].

kn-abstract=We examined the predation of two synanthropic jumping spiders, Hasarius adansoni (Araneae: Salticidae) and Plexippus paykulli (Araneae: Salticidae), on Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) (Coletptera: Tenebrionidae), a grain storage pest, that is sometimes found with these species to determine whether the predatory success of synanthropic and grassland jumping spiders on T. castaneum differs. We examined the predation of two synanthropic and three grassland jumping spiders on T. castaneum adults and larvae. We found that the two synanthropic species preyed on T. castaneum adults and larvae, while the three grassland species never attacked T. castaneum adults. The success or failure of predation on T. castaneum adults also depended on the body size of the jumping spiders.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The aim of this study is to investigate the modulating effect of coexisting food components on the absorption and metabolism of quercetin and blood plasma antioxidant potentials. The combination of quercetin with α-tocopherol (αT), cellulose, or a commercially available vegetable beverage containing αT and dietary fiber was orally administered to mice. Compared to the single administration of quercetin aglycone, the coadministration of αT with quercetin significantly increased the plasma quercetin concentration at 0.5?h, whereas the combination of quercetin and cellulose decreased it. Interestingly, the administration of quercetin mixed with the vegetable beverage showed no significant change in the quercetin concentration in the mice plasma. The treatment of the cells with the blood plasma after the coadministration of αT with quercetin significantly upregulated the gene expression of the antioxidant enzyme (heme oxygenase-1), whereas the quercetin and cellulose combination did not. In the plasma of the quercetin-administered mice, eight types of quercetin metabolites were detected, and their quantities were affected by the combination with αT. The potentials of the heme oxygenase-1 gene expression by these metabolites were very limited, although several metabolites showed radical scavenging activities comparable to aglycone in the in vitro assays. These results suggested that the combination of αT potentiates the quercetin absorption and metabolism and thus the plasma antioxidant potentials, at least in part, by the quantitative changes in the quercetin metabolites.

kn-abstract=This study investigates the effect of nonlinear interactions of Rossby waves on large-scale zonal flow formation in two-dimensional turbulence on a rotating sphere. The coefficients of nonlinear interactions are first calculated. Then, the non-local, near-resonant, and non-local near-resonant interactions are investigated in detail. The results show that the formation of large-scale westward circumpolar zonal flows is directly caused by non-local energy transfer due to the three-wave near-resonant interactions of Rossby waves.

kn-title=Effect of the blend ratio of cyclic and linear polyethylene blends on isothermal crystallization in the quiescent state
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The role of entanglements that form between cyclic and linear polymers in crystallization is of particular interest, but it is not fully understood. We investigated the crystallization behaviors of blends of cyclic polyethylene (C-PE) and linear polyethylene (L-PE) in a quiescent state to elucidate the role of this novel entanglement in crystallization. The samples were prepared by mixing the prepared C-PE and L-PE specimens at L-PE weight fraction (ΦL-PE) values of 0?100?wt%, with the weight average molecular weights of C-PE and L-PE being 175?×?103 and 154?×?103, respectively. The isothermal crystallization behaviors were analyzed through polarizing optical microscopy (POM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The morphology observed through POM was similar to that of ΦL-PE. From the time evolution of the heat flow measured via DSC, we obtained the half-crystallization time (t1/2) values as functions of ΦL-PE at different degrees of supercooling (ΔT). The 1/t1/2 values of the C-PE and L-PE homopolymers were approximately the same at ΔT?=?25.5 and 26.5?K. At a larger ΔT value, the 1/t1/2 value of C-PE was significantly larger than that of L-PE. In contrast, 1/t1/2 reached a minimum value at ΦL-PE?=?30?40?wt%, irrespective of ΔT. As the entanglement density increased with increasing ΦL-PE, the crystallization rate was expected to decrease monotonically. By considering the experimental relationship between 1/t1/2 and ΦL-PE, we speculated that the suppression of crystallization in the blended system was caused by a novel entanglement formed by the penetration of the L-PE chain into the C-PE chain.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Several previous studies have reported geographic variation and/or latitudinal clines of morphological sexual characteristics, but there are few studies that consider reproductive traits that are not morphological. Here, we measured the proportion of females fertilized by males, frequency of reproductive failure in males, and number of female copulations of the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum collected from fields in Japan to investigate the relationship between reproductive traits and latitude. Our results show substantial differences in the reproductive traits of both sexes among field populations. We identified latitudinal clines for reproductive traits in males, but not females. Moreover, female, but not male, reproductive traits were correlated with body size. Our study suggests that selection for male reproductive traits varies with latitude in T. castaneum.

Notwithstanding, in plant biology, the application of DNNs is still mostly limited to rapid and effective phenotyping. The recent development of explainable CNN frameworks has allowed visualization of the features in the prediction by a convolutional neural network (CNN), which potentially contributes to the understanding of physiological mechanisms in objective phenotypes. In this study, we propose an integration of explainable CNN and transcriptomic approach to make a physiological interpretation of a fruit internal disorder in persimmon, rapid over-softening. We constructed CNN models to accurately predict the fate to be rapid softening in persimmon cv. Soshu, only with photo images. The explainable CNNs, such as Gradient-weighted Class Activation Mapping (Grad-Class Activation Mapping (CAM)) and guided Grad-CAM, visualized specific featured regions relevant to the prediction of rapid softening, which would correspond to the premonitory symptoms in a fruit. Transcriptomic analyses to compare the featured regions of the predicted rapid-softening and control fruits suggested that rapid softening is triggered by precocious ethylene signal?dependent cell wall modification, despite exhibiting no direct phenotypic changes. Further transcriptomic comparison between the featured and non-featured regions in the predicted rapid-softening fruit suggested that premonitory symptoms reflected hypoxia and the related stress signals finally to induce ethylene signals. These results would provide a good example for the collaboration of image analysis and omics approaches in plant physiology, which uncovered a novel aspect of fruit premonitory reactions in the rapid-softening fate.

kn-abstract=Global concern over COVID-19 vaccine distribution disparities highlights the need for strategic booster shots. We explored longitudinal antibody responses post-booster during the Omicron wave in a Japanese cohort, emphasizing prior infection and booster doses. This prospective cohort study included 1763 participants aged 18 years and older with at least three vaccine doses (7376 datapoints). Antibody levels were measured every 2 months. We modeled temporal declines in antibody levels after COVID-19 vaccine boosters according to prior infection status and booster doses using a Bayesian linear mixed-effects interval-censored model, considering age, sex, underlying conditions, and lifestyle. Prior infection enhanced post-booster immunity (posterior median 0.346, 95% credible interval [CrI] 0.335-0.355), maintaining antibody levels (posterior median 0.021; 95% CrI 0.019-0.023) over 1 year, in contrast to uninfected individuals whose levels had waned by 8 months post-vaccination. Each additional booster was correlated with higher baseline antibody levels and slower declines, comparing after the third dose. Female sex, older age, immunosuppressive status, and smoking history were associated with lower baseline post-vaccination antibodies, but not associated with decline rates except for older age in the main model. Prior infection status and tailored, efficient, personalized booster strategies are crucial, considering sex, age, health conditions, and lifestyle.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) occurs in wide-ranging organisms, including plants, and can undergo spontaneous conversion to methylglyoxal (MG). While the toxicity of MG to plants is well-known, the toxicity of DHA to plants remains to be elucidated. We investigated the effects of DHA and MG on Arabidopsis. Exogenous DHA at up to 10 mM did not affect the radicle emergence, the expansion of green cotyledons, the seedling growth, or the activity of glyoxalase II, while DHA at 10 mM inhibited the root elongation and increased the activity of glyoxalase I. Exogenous MG at 1.0 mM inhibited these physiological responses and increased both activities. Dihydroxyacetone at 10 mM increased the MG content in the roots. These results indicate that DHA is not so toxic as MG in Arabidopsis seeds and seedlings and suggest that the toxic effect of DHA at high concentrations is attributed to MG accumulation by the conversion to MG.

en-abstract=This paper reports on two questionnaire surveys conducted at Okayama University on students who entered the university in 2023 (approximately 2,300 students). With the aim of providing basic data for considering reform of the English language curriculum, updating course content and improving the learning environment on campus, the surveys were conducted on students' motivations for learning, daily language use, course content they would like to study, target English communication skills, duration and programs of overseas experience. The results of the survey showed that the students' motivations for learning were highly 'score-oriented' and 'communication-oriented.’ Approximately 90% of students had few opportunities to use English on a daily basis, and approximately 60% wanted to prioritize 'speaking' skills in their studies. The results also showed that about half of the students need more awareness of their English communication skills so that they can have higher goals.
kn-abstract=本稿では、岡山大学の2023年度入学生(約2300名)を対象に実施した２つのアンケート調査の結果報告とその考察を行う。大学英語カリキュラム改革や科目内容のアップデート、学習環境の整備を検討するための基礎資料の提供を目的として、入学時点での、学習動機、言語使用環境、学びたい授業内容、目標とする英語コミュニケーション能力、海外体験等について調査した。結果として、学習動機は「スコア取得志向」と「コミュニケーション志向」が高いことが示された。また約9割の学生は日常的英語使用の機会がほとんどないことがわかった。一方、約6割の学生が「話す」スキルを優先して学びたいと考えており、半数程度の学生はより高い目標を持てるような意識付けが必要であることなどが示された。

en-abstract=The outbreak of COVID19 in Japan affected students in various ways, including the economy, study environment, lifestyle, career path, and psychologically, among which international students whose travel to and from abroad was severely restricted faced various difficulties. The L-Caf? survey revealed that many students were facing financial difficulties, and food assistance was provided five times. A Follow-up survey indicated that the food drive helped them financially and mentally. The International Student advising room responded to inquiries about immigration, application procedures for special grant scholarships, and career counseling, as well as harassment, problems among students, and mental health issues, but the question remained, "Are we reaching students who need support the most?

kn-abstract=　In this report, microtremor array observations were conducted in the Tsushima Campus of Okayama University, and the subsurface velocity structure was estimated from the analysis of the records. The results indicate that a five-layer S-wave velocity structure from the surface to the seismic basement equivalent layer with thicknesses of 8, 24, 80 and 180 m and velocities of 150, 450, 1100, 1700 and 3200 m/s, respectively, is reasonable. This model explains to some extent the observed phase velocity and H/V spectral ratios. It is also consistent with the surface borehole results. Furthermore, the areal characteristics of the H/V spectral ratios were also presented, allowing us to estimate the trend of the ground structure in shallow areas.

kn-title=鳶尾塚古墳の石室石材の岩石学的特徴
en-subtitle=

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=　Tobiotsuka Kofun, a tumulus built on the Misu Hills in the Kofun period, has a horizontal stone chamber made of huge stone blocks with a width up to 2 meters or more. To specify the source of the stone blocks, we carried out the measurement of magnetic susceptibility, petrographic observation, and chemical analysis of minerals. The stones are amphibole-biotite granite with phenocrystic large grains of K-feldspar. The back-wall stone of the chamber has higher magnetic susceptibility than ceiling and side-wall stones, which probably results from a higher amount of magnetite formed by the alteration of biotite in the back-wall stone. Furthermore, the back-wall stone is different from ceiling stone in that it has lower XMg [Mg/(Mg + Fe) mole ratio], lower Al, Ti, and Na + K contents and higher Si contents of amphibole, higher XMg of biotite, and shows a tendency to have higher Na (albite component) contents at rims of plagioclase crystals and lower Ti contents of zircon. These characteristics of the back-wall stone are similar to those of granite exposed in the Koshinzan area about 2 km northeast of Tobiotsuka Kofun, whereas the ceiling and side-wall stones are similar to granite outcrops in the vicinity of Tobiotsuka Kofun, e.g., in the Midoriyama area. It is concluded that the quarry for the back-wall was located at a different place from that for the ceiling and side-wall stones.

en-abstract=Previous research on career selection has reported a variety of research results, such as increasing career choice ability, which activates career choice behavior, and mediated by career choice self-efficacy, which further increases career choice behavior（Tominaga, 2009）. Based on previous research, the authors have previously investigated social skills as a factor that increases college students’ career choice self-efficacy in Machida, H., & Hirakimoto, H.（2017）, Machida, H.（2021）, etc. existence has been revealed. However, in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic starting in 2020, university students have been restricted not only in academic settings, but also in extracurricular activities and part-time jobs, with opportunities for communication being lost and opportunities to improve social skills reduced. did. The authors focused on EI（emotional intelligence） as a factor that improves social skills even in such an environment, and based on the 2021 survey, Machida and Kaimoto（2022）investigated the relationship between EI（emotional intelligence）, social skills, and We have clarified the relationship between career choice self-efficacy. After that, we will conduct a three-year survey of university students starting in 2021 with the aim of clarifying how EI（emotional intelligence）, in addition to social skills, influences university students’ career choice self-efficacy. The investigation has continued. As a result, three years of continuous research revealed that EI（emotional intelligence） has a positive influence on career choice self-efficacy through the mediation of social skills.
kn-abstract=　進路選択における先行研究では、進路選択能力を高めることにより進路選択行動が活発化し、そこに進路選択自己効力感が媒介するとより進路選択行動が高まるなど多様な研究成果が報告されてきた（富永, 2009）。先行研究を踏まえて筆者らはこれまでMachida, H., & Hirakimoto, H.（2017）、Machida, H.（2021） などにおいて、大学生などの進路選択自己効力感を高める因子としてのソーシャルスキルの存在を明らかにしてきた。しかしながら2020年以降のコロナ禍においては、大学生は学業の場のみならず、課外活動やアルバイトの場においても対人関係を深める活動が制限されると共に、コミュニケーションの機会が失われ、ソーシャルスキルを高める機会は低減した。筆者らはこのような環境下においてもソーシャルスキルを高める因子としてのEI（感情知性）に着目し、2021年度の調査を基礎に町田・開本（2022）においてEI（感情知性）とソーシャルスキル並びに進路選択自己効力感の関係について明らかにしてきた。その後2021年からの3年に渡る、ソーシャルスキルに加えEI（感情知性）が大学生の進路選択自己効力感にどのような影響を及ぼしているかについて明らかにすることを目的に、大学生を対象にサーベイ調査を継続してきた。結果的にEI（感情知性）はソーシャルスキルを媒介して進路選択自己効力感に正の影響を及ぼすことが3年間の継続調査により明らかになった。

kn-abstract=Movement is an important behavior observed in a wide range of taxa. Previous studies have examined genes controlling movement using wing polymorphic insects and genes controlling wing size. However, few studies have investigated genes controlling movement activity rather than morphological traits. In the present study, we conducted RNA sequencing using populations with higher (WL) and lower (WS) mobility established by artificial selection in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum and compared gene expression levels between selected populations with two replicate lines. As a result, we found significant differences between the selected populations in 677 genes expressed in one replicate line and 1198 genes expressed in another replicate line, of which 311 genes were common to the two replicate lines. Furthermore, quantitative PCR focusing on 6 of these genes revealed that neuropeptide F receptor gene (NpF) was significantly more highly expressed in the WL population than in the WS population, which was common to the two replicate lines. We discuss differences in genes controlling movement between walking activity and wing polymorphism.

en-abstract=To examine attitude towards Internet use, tendency of internet addiction, and timing of starting Internet use among university students, the survey was conducted. The participants were divided into three groups based on when they started to use the Internet: elementary school group (n=18), junior high school group (n=44), and high school and above group (n=33). Attitude towards internet use and tendency of internet addiction at university were compared between groups. The results showed that elementary school group had higher tendency of internet addiction and was less likely to intervene in the inappropriate use by others. To answer practical questions about the appropriate age to start using the Internet, it is necessary to examine from multiple perspectives.
kn-abstract=　大学生を対象に，インターネット使用態度，インターネット依存傾向，インターネット使用開始時期について質問紙調査を用いて検討した。インターネット使用開始時期により，調査参加者を小学校群（18名），中学校群（44名），高校以降群（33名）の３群に分類し，大学生時点でのインターネット使用態度とインターネット依存傾向を比較した結果，小学校群はインターネット依存傾向が高めであり，他者の不適切なインターネット使用に対し介入することは少ない傾向があった。小学校高学年から自分用の機器によるインターネット使用環境を入手していた者の大学生時点での使用状況には，より遅くから自分用のインターネット環境を入手した者に比べ懸念すべき部分がある可能性が示唆される。インターネットの使用開始年齢によるその後の影響について，実践的な問いに答えるためには，より多面的に使用実態の違いを検討していく必要があることが指摘された。

en-abstract=Picture books on Down syndrome and intellectual disabilities should be further improved, to understanding not only the disabilities but also the disabled and their parents and siblings through stories. Further more, caregivers need not only to read picture books to infants, but also to provide support such as approach and encouragement to deepen individual understanding of infants with disabilities. A picture book list developed in this study is intended to assist caregivers in selecting picture books and to provide guidance in understanding disabilities. Future issues are to examine the practical application of the list in childcare and to test its validity in cooperation with caregivers. In addition, because of the usefulness of education for understanding disabilities from early childhood, there is a need for more picture books on these topics for infants.
kn-abstract=　ダウン症や知的障害に関する絵本は，物語を通した障害の具体例の提示や感情表現など，障害そのものに対する理解にとどまらず，障害者やその保護者・兄弟の理解と支援につながる教材であり，より一層の充実が求められる。また，障害理解の教材としての絵本と幼児を媒介する保育者には，絵本を読み聞かせるだけでなく，保育現場の事例と照合させ，幼児に対する個別的な障害理解の深化を促す声掛けや働き掛けなどの援助が必要となる。本研究において作成された絵本リストは，保育者による絵本選択や障害理解教育を支援すると考えられる。今後の課題は，保育の現場実践での具体的運用と環境整備の検討及び，保育者と連携した妥当性の検証である。また，障害に関する絵本は，描写されるエピソードや使用される言葉や漢字表記等から児童期以降の子どもを想定したものが多いと考えられ，幼児期からの障害理解教育の有用性を踏まえ，幼児を対象とした絵本の増加が求められる。

kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=Autism Spectrum Disorder（ASD）, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder（ADHD）, and Learning Disabilities（LD） are obscure for infants to understand, but picture books about these disabilities have recently increased, and are considered to be educational materials to understand these disabilities from early childhood. Picture books, that can clearly present disabilities and their characteristic behaviors through stories, offer various choices and support an understanding of disabilities in the real childcare. Also, many picture books for understanding disabilities describe the emotions of the family and can be used to deepen infants' understanding of their parents and siblings. On the other hand, the number of picture books about the environment and its improvement is small. An increase in the number of picture books on these topics is expected, and handmade picture book materials based on the real conditions w ould also be effective.
kn-abstract=　発達障害である自閉スペクトラム症・注意欠如多動症・学習障害は，幼児にとって難解であるが，これを取り上げる絵本は近年増加傾向にあり，幼児期からの障害理解に資する教材として考えられる。障害とその特徴的な行動について，物語を通して分かりやすく示すことができる視覚教材である絵本は，選択の幅も広く，保育現場の実態に適合した幼児の障害理解を支援する。また，障害児への支援においては，保護者・兄弟支援も重要であるが，障害理解絵本には家族の心情を描写するものも多く，保護者・兄弟に対する幼児の理解を深めることにも活用できると考えられる。一方，人的環境に関わる絵本の多様性に比べて，物的環境に関わるものやその改善について紹介されたものは少ないことが把握された。これらに関する絵本の増加が期待されると共に，実態に即した手作りの絵本教材も有効であると考えられる。

en-abstract=　Researchers have identified differences in teachers’ career guidance counseling between China and Japan. Veteran teachers in China value their students’ careers after graduation, whereas Japanese veteran teachers attach importance to matching the students’ interests with the faculties and departments of the university. This study examines whether and how differences in the career guidance received by Chinese and Japanese students influenced subsequent career decisions. In total, 103 high school students in China and 135 university freshmen on Japan participated in this study. The results showed that Chinese high school teachers’ career guidance had a strong influence on students. However, while Japanese students were influenced by their teachers, they ultimately made their own decisions. We conclude with a discussion of the differences in the situations of their school lives.
kn-abstract=　教師の進路指導が生徒のその後の進路決定にどのように影響しているのかを質問紙調査で明らかにした。具体的には，教師の進路指導が生徒の進路決定自己効力感を高めるのか，それによって，時間的展望が広がるのかを検討した。分析には多母集団同時分析を用いて検討した。その結果, 中国高校教師の進路指導は生徒たちへの影響は日本より強いことがわかった。加えて, 日本の生徒たちは教師から影響もうけるが, 自分で進路決定の意志を決め, 自分で進路を選択していることも明らかになった。日本の生徒達は, 学校のほかに, 塾等の生徒が活動する場所が多くあり，教師のほかに接触できる大人も多く，学校や教師だけでなく, 他のところや人からも進路に関する情報を取得可能であることが影響していると考える。それに対して, 中国の生徒たち, 特に高校生はほぼ一日学校で勉強している。接触できる人は多くの場合，教師しかない。このような高校生を取り巻く環境の違いのため，中国の生徒たちの進路決定は，日本より教師への依存が高いと考察した。

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=This paper aims to organize and examine the role of teachers in the play using grasses and flowers in a kindergarten class for 4-year-olds. In early childhood education, harmonious and diverse learning deepens and develops alongside the development of play, with play and learning seemingly occurring spontaneously and child-directed. However, the roles of teachers, such as “environmental constitution anticipating the child's presence,” “maintenance of the physical environment in accordance with changes in play,” and “bridging to the development of play,” were identified as underlying the background of the development of play and learning.
kn-abstract=　本論は，幼稚園４歳児学級における草花を使った遊びにおいて，教師の役割を整理し，考察するものである。幼児教育では，遊びの展開に伴って，調和的で多様な学びが深化・発展し，遊びや学びは，幼児主体で偶発的に生じているように見える。しかし，遊びの展開や学びの背景には，「幼児の姿を予想した環境構成」「遊び方の変化に合わせた物的環境の整備」「遊びの発展への架け橋」といった教師の役割が見出された。

kn-title=Long-term, patient-centered, frailty-based outcomes of older critical illness survivors from the emergency department: a post hoc analysis of the LIFE Study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background Evidence indicates frailty before intensive care unit (ICU) admission leads to poor outcomes. However, it is unclear whether quality of life (QOL) and activities of daily living (ADL) for survivors of critical illness admitted to the ICU via the emergency department remain consistent or deteriorate in the long-term compared to baseline. This study aimed to evaluate long-term QOL/ADL outcomes in these patients, categorized by the presence or absence of frailty according to Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) score, as well as explore factors that influence these outcomes.<br>
Methods This was a post-hoc analysis of a prospective, multicenter, observational study conducted across Japan. It included survivors aged 65 years or older who were admitted to the ICU through the emergency department. Based on CFS scores, participants were categorized into either the not frail group or the frail group, using a threshold CFS score of <?4. Our primary outcome was patient-centered outcomes (QOL/ADL) measured by the five-level EuroQol five-dimensional questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L) and the Barthel Index six months post-ICU admission, comparing results from baseline. Secondary outcomes included exploration of factors associated with QOL/ADL six months post-ICU admission using multiple linear regression analyses.<br>
Results Of 514 candidates, 390 participants responded to the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire, while 237 responded to the Barthel Index. At six months post-admission, mean EQ-5D-5L values declined in both the not frail and frail groups (0.80 to 0.73, p?=?0.003 and 0.58 to 0.50, p?=?0.002, respectively); Barthel Index scores also declined in both groups (98 to 83, p?<?0.001 and 79 to 61, p?<?0.001, respectively). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that baseline frailty (β coefficient, -0.15; 95% CI, ??0.23 to ??0.07; p?<?0.001) and pre-admission EQ-5D-5L scores (β coefficient, 0.14; 95% CI, 0.02 to 0.26; p?=?0.016) affected EQ-5D-5L scores at six months. Similarly, baseline frailty (β coefficient, -12.3; 95% CI, ??23.9 to ??0.80; p?=?0.036) and Barthel Index scores (β coefficient, 0.54; 95% CI, 0.30 to 0.79; p?<?0.001) influenced the Barthel Index score at six months.<br>
Conclusions Regardless of frailty, older ICU survivors from the emergency department were more likely to experience reduced QOL and ADL six months after ICU admission compared to baseline.

kn-title=The Impact of Phenological Gaps on Leaf Characteristics and Foliage Dynamics of an Understory Dwarf Bamboo, Sasa kurilensis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Phenological gaps exert a significant influence on the growth of dwarf bamboos. However, how dwarf bamboos respond to and exploit these phenological gaps remain enigmatic. The light environment, soil nutrients, leaf morphology, maximum photosynthetic rate, foliage dynamics, and branching characteristics of Sasa kurilensis were examined under the canopies of Fagus crenata and Magnolia obovata. The goal was to elucidate the adaptive responses of S. kurilensis to phenological gaps in the forest understory. The findings suggest that phenological gaps under an M. obovata canopy augment the available biomass of S. kurilensis, enhancing leaf area, leaf thickness, and carbon content per unit area. However, these gaps do not appreciably influence the maximum photosynthetic rate, total leaf number, leaf lifespan, branch number, and average branch length. These findings underscore the significant impact of annually recurring phenological gaps on various aspects of S. kurilensis growth, such as its aboveground biomass, leaf morphology, and leaf biochemical characteristics. It appears that leaf morphology is a pivotal trait in the response of S. kurilensis to phenological gaps. Given the potential ubiquity of the influence of phenological gaps on dwarf bamboos across most deciduous broadleaf forests, this canopy phenomenon should not be overlooked.

kn-title=Experimental quantification of genetic and ontogenetic effects on fighting behavior in the broad-horned flour beetle
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Most animal behaviors show large within- and among-individual variation, and this includes competitive male behaviors. With male fighting for example, aggressiveness often correlates with dominance, and contest duration varies with age. However, few studies have directly quantified how mean aggressiveness and contest duration, the variation among individuals in both traits, and the relationship among them, vary with age. Here we address these gaps and examine the effect of male age and genotype on two key aspects of male fighting behavior - aggressiveness (here measured as latency to fight) and contest duration - and the relationship between them. We do this using isogenic lines of the broad-horned flour beetle Gnatocerus cornutus. We observed fighting behavior of paired males of similar body size and age. Using uni- and multivariate mixed models, we show that although there was a significant difference between younger and older males in contest duration, mean aggressiveness was not affected by male age. However, the variation in aggression and fight duration varied with age, being greater in younger and older males respectively. Additionally, although there was a positive correlation between aggressiveness and contest duration in younger males, this relationship was not found in older males. Finally, the only significant genetic effect was for aggression in younger males. Our study shows that age differentially shapes key components of male fighting behavior as well as the relationship among them, highlighting the dynamic nature and context-dependence of fighting.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The West Indian sweetpotato weevil, Euscepes postfasciatus, a serious pest of sweet potatoes, is being eradicated by sterile insect technique (SIT) in the south-western islands of Japan. Information on the diurnal movement of the target pests on host plants and where mating and egg-laying behavior occurs on the host is important for the application of SIT, which eradicates the target pest through mating of released sterile males and wild females. However, little such information is available on this species. In this study, male and female adults were released on host plants to examine the diurnal distribution on seedlings according to sex, as well as the sites where mounting behavior and egg laying occurs. The results showed that females left the host plant more frequently at night, whereas males were more likely to remain on the host plant at night. Both males and females stayed on the nodes of the host plant during the daytime. Mounting behavior also tended to occur more often at nodes. Furthermore, compared to unmated females, mated females stayed at the vertical top of the seedlings. However, it was found that eggs were often laid close to the roots rather than at the top of the vertical stems, even when the seedlings were placed upside down. The results of previous studies and this study will be discussed from the perspective of the application of SIT against E. postfasciatus.

kn-title=Treatment interruption in hypertensive patients during the COVID-19 pandemic: An interrupted time series analysis using prescription data in Okayama, Japan
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: The COVID- 19 pandemic has impacted healthcare behaviors, leading to fewer pediatric visits in Japan and potentially fewer visits by adult patients. However, existing Japanese studies on treatment interruptions have generally relied on questionnaire- based methods. In this study, we assessed the impact of the pandemic on antihypertensive treatment interruption using real- world prescription data. <br>
Methods: We conducted an interrupted time series analysis using the National Health Insurance Database in Okayama Prefecture, Japan. Participants included individuals aged 40-69 years with at least one antihypertensive prescription between 2018 and 2020. Treatment interruption was defined as a 3- month or longer gap in prescriptions after medication depletion. We used segmented Poisson regression with models unadjusted and adjusted for seasonality and over- dispersion to assess monthly treatment interruptions before and after Japan's April 2020 emergency. <br>
Results: During the study period, 23.0% of 55,431 participants experienced treatment interruptions. Cyclical fluctuations in interruptions were observed. The crude analysis indicated a 1.2 - fold increase in treatment interruptions following the pandemic; however, the adjusted models showed no significant changes. Even among higher- risk groups, such as women, younger adults, and those with shorter prescriptions, no significant alterations were observed. <br>
Conclusion: We found no significant impact of the COVID- 19 pandemic on antihypertensive treatment interruption in Okayama Prefecture. The less severe outbreak in the area or increased use of telemedicine and extended prescriptions may have contributed to treatment continuity. Further research is needed using a more stable and comprehensive database, broader regional data, and detailed prescription records to validate and extend our findings.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The tertiary irrigation system (TIS) was designed for the Muda Irrigation Scheme (MIS) to distribute irrigation water to farmers' fields to ensure the reliability of water supply for cultivating rice paddies twice a year. Variability in farming practices, influenced by farmer autonomy along the tertiary canal adds complexity and uncertainty to adherence monitoring. Traditional on -site data collection methods are limited in scope and efficiency, whereas Earth observation (EO) enables continuous monitoring. In this study, we introduced a methodology that uses EO datasets to monitor individual field adherence to rice -planting schedules under TIS. These tools improve the monitoring of rice -planting schedule adherence by identifying non -adherent fields for further countermeasures. This study highlights the potential use of EO datasets and advanced data processing techniques for efficient agricultural monitoring.

kn-title=Epidemiology and Reporting Characteristics of Systematic Reviews in Orthopedic Journals: A Meta-Epidemiological Study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Systematic reviews (SRs) with complete reporting or rigorous methods can lead to less biased recommendations and decisions. A comprehensive analysis of the epidemiological and reporting characteristics of SRs in orthopedics is lacking. We evaluated 360 SRs, including 165 and 195 published in orthopedic journals in 2012 and 2022. According to the established reporting guidelines, we examined these SRs for key epidemiological characteristics, including focus areas, type of meta-analysis (MA), and reporting characteristics. Most SRs (71%) were therapy-related, with a significant proportion originating from authors in the USA, UK, and China. Pairwise MA was performed on half of the SRs. The proportion of protocol registrations improved by 2022 but remained low (33%). Despite a formal declaration of adherence to the reporting guidelines (68%), they were often not used and reported enough. Only 10% of the studies used full search strategies, including trial registries. Publication bias assessments, subgroup analyses, and sensitivity analyses were not even planned. The risk of bias assessment improved in 2022; however, the certainty of the evidence remained largely unassessed (8%). The use and reporting of standard methods in orthopedic SRs have remained suboptimal. Thus, authors, peer reviewers, journal editors, and readers should criticize the results more.

kn-abstract=In atopic dermatitis (AD), nerves are abnormally stretched near the surface of the skin, making it sensitive to itching. Expression of neurotrophic factor Artemin (ARTN) involved in such nerve stretching is induced by the xenobiotic response (XRE) to air pollutants and UV radiation products. Therefore, AD can be monitored by the XRE response. Previously, we established a human keratinocyte cell line stably expressing a NanoLuc reporter gene downstream of XRE. We found that 6-formylindolo[3,2-b]carbazole (FICZ), a tryptophan metabolite and known inducer of the XRE, increased reporter and Artemin mRNA expression, indicating that FICZ-treated cells could be a model for AD. Lavender essential oil has been used in folk medicine to treat AD, but the scientific basis for its use is unclear. In the present study, we investigated the efficacy of lavender essential oil and its major components, linalyl acetate and linalool, to suppress AD and sensitize skin using the established AD model cell line, and keratinocyte and dendritic cell activation assays. Our results indicated that lavender essential oil from L. angustifolia and linalyl acetate exerted a strong AD inhibitory effect and almost no skin sensitization. Our model is useful in that it can circumvent the practice of using animal studies to evaluate AD medicines.

kn-title=Tetrathionate hydrolase from the acidophilic microorganisms
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Tetrathionate hydrolase (TTH) is a unique enzyme found in acidophilic sulfur-oxidizing microorganisms, such as bacteria and archaea. This enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of tetrathionate to thiosulfate, elemental sulfur, and sulfate. It is also involved in dissimilatory sulfur oxidation metabolism, the S-4-intermediate pathway. TTHs have been purified and characterized from acidophilic autotrophic sulfur-oxidizing microorganisms. All purified TTHs show an optimum pH in the acidic range, suggesting that they are localized in the periplasmic space or outer membrane. In particular, the gene encoding TTH from Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans (Af-tth) was identified and recombinantly expressed in Escherichia coli cells. TTH activity could be recovered from the recombinant inclusion bodies by acid refolding treatment for crystallization. The mechanism of tetrathionate hydrolysis was then elucidated by X-ray crystal structure analysis. Af-tth is highly expressed in tetrathionate-grown cells but not in iron-grown cells. These unique structural properties, reaction mechanisms, gene expression, and regulatory mechanisms are discussed in this review.

kn-title=Rhizoviticin is an alphaproteobacterial tailocin that mediates biocontrol of grapevine crown gall disease
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Tailocins are headless phage tail structures that mediate interbacterial antagonism. Although the prototypical tailocins, R- and F-pyocins, in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and other predominantly R-type tailocins have been studied, their presence in Alphaproteobacteria remains unexplored. Here, we report the first alphaproteobacterial F-type tailocin, named rhizoviticin, as a determinant of the biocontrol activity of Allorhizobium vitis VAR03-1 against crown gall. Rhizoviticin is encoded by a chimeric prophage genome, one providing transcriptional regulators and the other contributing to tail formation and cell lysis, but lacking head formation genes. The rhizoviticin genome retains a nearly intact early phage region containing an integrase remnant and replication-related genes critical for downstream gene transcription, suggesting an ongoing transition of this locus from a prophage to a tailocin-coding region. Rhizoviticin is responsible for the most antagonistic activity in VAR03-1 culture supernatant against pathogenic A. vitis strain, and rhizoviticin deficiency resulted in a significant reduction in the antitumorigenic activity in planta. We identified the rhizoviticin-coding locus in eight additional A. vitis strains from diverse geographical locations, highlighting a unique survival strategy of certain Rhizobiales bacteria in the rhizosphere. These findings advance our understanding of the evolutionary dynamics of tailocins and provide a scientific foundation for employing rhizoviticin-producing strains in plant disease control.

en-title=Comparisons of nitrogen use efficiency between rice cv. Nipponbare and Takanari at different fertilization levels
kn-title=異なる施肥条件下における水稲品種の窒素利用効率 ―日本晴とタカナリの比較―
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The rice cultivar Nipponbare and the high-yielding cultivar Takanari were cultivated in field trials for three years from 2003, and in pot trials (1/2,000a) for two years from 2004. In the field trials, the following three levels of fertilizer were applied：“0N” without fertilizer, “1N” with the standard amount(8kgN 10a?1), and “2N” with twice the standard amount (16kgN 10a?1). In the pot trial, three levels of fertilizer were applied：“0N” without fertilizer, “1.5N” with 1.5times the standard amount (1.5gN pot?1), and “3N” with three times the standard amount (3gN pot?1). In the field trials, yields were higher in Takanari (538 to 843g m?2) than in Nihonbare (423 to 577g m?2), and the increase in yield with fertilizer application was also larger in Takanari. This was related to the larger sink capacity of Takanari and the smaller decrease in the percentage of filled grain with larger sink capacity. The dry matter weight and nitrogen uptake at the panicle initiation stage were higher in the plots with higher fertilizer application, but the differences between the cultivars were small. Dry matter weight and nitrogen uptake at harvest time were higher in Takanari, and nitrogen use efficiency and sink production efficiency were also higher in Takanari, but the differences in nitrogen use efficiency between cultivars became smaller with increasing fertilizer application. The nitrogen use efficiency for dry matter production also decreased with increasing fertilizer application, and was higher in 2005 in Takanari. The leaf photosynthetic rate of Takanari was higher than that of Nipponbare in the pot experiment. The difference in leaf photosynthetic rate was related to the nitrogen use efficiency (photosynthetic rate / leaf nitrogen content), and the difference in leaf nitrogen content between cultivars was small. The nitrogen use efficiency for dry matter was highest in the “0N” and decreased with increasing fertilizer application, and was higher in Takanari than in Nipponbare. This was presumably related to the higher nitrogen use efficiency of photosynthesis. It was found that fertilizer application decreased nitrogen use efficiency and sink production efficiency, but yield increased with increasing sink capacity, and that differences in nitrogen use efficiency among cultivars were related to the amount of nitrogen absorbed up to the panicle initiation stage and sink production efficiency. In order to improve the efficiency of fertilizer application, it is desirable to increase nitrogen absorption, which is expressed as multiplying the number of days to panicle initiation and the rate of nitrogen absorption, and to select cultivars with higher sink production efficiency.

kn-abstract=Field experiments were conducted in 2020 and 2021 at the Field Science Center of Okayama Univ. (34°41’ N, 133°55’ E). Two Soybean cultivars ‘UA4805’ and ‘Akimaro’ were sown with two planting densities, 12.5plants m?2 (sparse, 80×10cm) and 25plants m?2 (dense, 80×5cm)on May 25 (early), June 29 (normal), and Aug. 3 (late) in 2020, and 80 and 30cm row-width, and 12.5 and 25 plant m?2 in 2021 on June 23. Seed yield was higher in ‘UA4805’ than in ‘Akimaro’ in 2020 and 2021. The later the sowing time, the higher the seeds/stem ratio. Both cultivars showed higher dry matter in dense planting. Dry matter was higher in ‘Akimaro’, while seed yield was lower than ‘UA4805’. In contrast, ‘UA4805’ showed lower dry matter with higher seed yield. The numbers of nodes, pods, and seeds were higher in ‘UA4805’ resulting in the higher seed yield. Lodging score is larger in ‘Akimaro’ especially in dense planting. The seeds/stem ratio is much higher in ‘UA4805’ than ‘Akimaro’ across 2 densities, 3 sowing times and 2 row width. Pods setting ratio was nearly two times higher in ‘UA4805’ compared to ‘Akimaro’. The greater seed yield of ‘UA4805’ compared to ‘Akimaro’ was due to the higher pod setting ratio, seeds/stem ratio, and lower lodging score, nevertheless the dry matter was larger in ‘Akimaro’. If late sowing is applied, higher planting density is recommended for better seed yield. Narrow row is an effective way to improve seed yield in soybean.

kn-abstract=We investigated the effects of fertilizer-free and fertilizer-applied cultivation on growth, yield and nitrogen (N) utilization of rice cultivars in our Kurashiki paddy fields (Institute of Plant Science and Resources, Okayama Univ.), which have been cultivated without fertilizer since 1970, and also in our Okayama paddy fields, which are conventionally cultivated. In 2001, the cultivars Nipponbare (NIP) and Nourin 18 (N18) were cultivated in the Kurashiki fields, with a “0N plot” (no fertilizer application), a “1N plot” (standard fertilizer application), and a “2N plot” (double fertilizer application). In 2002, five cultivars were grown without fertilizer in the Kurashiki fields, and 51cultivars were tested in 0N and 1N plots in the Okayama fields. Yield (2001) in the Kurashiki fields was higher in the 0N plot for N18 (379g m?2), which had a higher number of spikelets per m2, than NIP (300 g m?2), while in the 1N and 2N plots it was higher for NIP, which had a higher percentage of ripening, and N18 had high yield potential even without fertilizer application, but low fertilizer tolerance. The differences in yield were related to N-uptake (NU), and the differences in N use efficiency (NUE, yield/NU) between cultivars were small. The pot experiment showed that the yield of 0N plot was higher for N18 than NIP grown in Kurashiki soil because of the higher number of spikelets per hill, and the yield in the Okayama soil was higher than that in the Kurashiki soil. Long-term non-fertilized soils are of poor soil fertility, which also decreases the NUE, and the NUE of N18 is higher than that of NIP under isolated conditions. The difference in yields is closely related to sink capacity (SC). In 2002, yields in the Kurashiki fields were highest in Takanari (TAK, 494g m?2) and lowest in NIP (350g m?2), and differences in yields were closely related to SC. NUE was highest in TAK (68.6) and lowest in Akebono (48.1). TAK had high NUE and high sink production efficiency (SPE, SC/NU), while N18 had low NUE but high SC due to higher NU, ensuring high yield even under unfertilized cultivation. Yields in the 0N and 1N plots cultivated in 2002 varied between 244?631g m?2 and 199?769g m?2, respectively. A close positive correlation was observed between yield and SC, and between NU and SC, suggesting that the SC through NU is involved in determining yield. A positive correlation was also observed between NUE and yield. It was found that yield increased with an increase in NUE, and that NUE decreased although yield increased with fertilizer application. Through selection of cultivars with high SPE, it is expected that it will be possible to breed low-input, high-yielding cultivars with high NUE in the future.

en-subtitle=

kn-abstract=Cold wet treatment is frequently applied to Eustoma seeds to enhance the bolting rate of plants grown under high temperatures. Our previous study indicated that cold PEG?primed Eustoma seeds could maintain their germination rate and bolting rate even after being re?dried for 30days and grown under high temperatures. The present study aimed to investigate whether prolonged storage after cold PEG?priming affect the germination, growth, and flowering of Eustoma ‘Exe Lavender’ seedling. Seeds were initially cold?primed with water or PEG?6000 at ?1.5 MPa for 5 weeks at 10°C in the dark and were then subjected to re?drying and storage for 30, 60, 90 and 360days at 10°C. After 360days of storage, cold PEG?primed seeds germinated earlier and more effectively than cold hydro?primed seeds. Compared to the results after 30days of storage, plants grown from 360days exhibited similar bolting rate, days to bolting, bolting node and flowering rate, cut flower length and number of flower node. These results suggest that ‘Exe Lavender’ seeds can germinate and develop well even after 360days of storage and under high temperature conditions when subjected to cold PEG?6000 treatment.

en-title=Evaluator of adaptability of S. cerevisiae to grape juice using the oversxpression profiling ADOPT method
kn-title=過剰発現プロファイリングADOPT法を用いたS.cerevisiaeのワイン醸造用ブドウ果汁への適応性評価
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=筆者らは最近，過剰発現プロファイリングADOPT 法を開発した．ADOPT 法では，出芽酵母Saccharomyces cerevisiae ゲノムのほとんどの遺伝子をそれぞれ過剰発現する酵母株を混合・競合培養し，その過程で濃縮されてきた株が過剰発現している遺伝子を体系的に同定する．さらに同定された遺伝子をたよりに，S. cerevisiae の与えられた条件での増殖に必要だが欠落しているボトルネック因子を明らかにできる．これまでの研究では，実験室で人為的に構築したストレス環境でのボトルネックの同定を行ってきたが，本研究では産業上のボトルネックを明らかにできるかをワイン醸造用のブドウ果汁を例として検証した．通常のワイン醸造に用いられる亜硫酸添加ブドウ果汁でのADOPT 実験は，亜硫酸ポンプSSU1とその転写因子FZF1の過剰発現株が強く濃縮された．SSU1機能の強化はワイン用酵母の馴養でも起きることが知られていることから，産業上のボトルネックを探索する際にもADOPT が有効であることが示された．一方，亜硫酸添加のないブドウ果汁ではADOPT で強く濃縮された遺伝子は見られず，ブドウ果汁はS. cerevisiae の増殖にとってボトルネックの少ないバランスのとれた培地であることが示唆された．
kn-abstract=The authors have recently developed the overexpression profiling ADOPT method. In the ADOPT method, yeast strains overexpressing most of the genes in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome are mixed and competitively cultured, and the genes overexpressed in the enriched strains are systematically identified. Furthermore, the identified genes can be used to identify bottleneck factors that are necessary but lacking for growth of S. cerevisiae under given conditions. In our previous studies, we have identified bottlenecks in artificially created stress environments in the laboratory, but in this study, we used grape juice for winemaking as an example to see if industrial bottlenecks can be identified. ADOPT experiments with sulfite-added grape juice used in conventional winemaking resulted in a strong enrichment of strains overexpressing the sulfite pump SSU1 and its transcription factor FZF1. Since enhancement of SSU1 function is known to occur in wine yeast acclimation, ADOPT was also shown to be useful in the search for industrial bottlenecks. On the other hand, no genes were strongly enriched by ADOPT in grape juice without sulfite addition, suggesting that grape juice is a balanced medium with few bottlenecks for S. cerevisiae growth.

kn-title=Effect of stomach inflation during cardiopulmonary resuscitation on return of spontaneous circulation in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients: A retrospective observational study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: Gastric inflation caused by excessive ventilation is a common complication of cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Gastric inflation may further compromise ventilation via increases in intrathoracic pressure, leading to decreased venous return and cardiac output, which may impair out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) outcomes. The purpose of this study was to measure the gastric volume of OHCA patients using computed tomography (CT) scan images and evaluate the effect of gastric inflation on return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC).<br>
Methods: In this single-center, retrospective, observational study, CT scan was conducted after ROSC or immediately after death. Total gastric volume was measured. Primary outcome was ROSC. Achievement of ROSC was compared in the gastric distention group and the no gastric distention group; gastric distension was defined as total gastric volume in the ?75th percentile. Additionally, factors associated with gastric distention were examined.<br>
Results: A total of 446 cases were enrolled in the study; 120 cases (27%) achieved ROSC. The median gastric volume was 400 ml for all OHCA subjects; 1068 ml in gastric distention group vs. 287 ml in no gastric distention group. There was no difference in ROSC between the groups (27/112 [24.1%] vs. 93/334 [27.8%], p = 0.440). Gastric distention did not have a significant impact, even after adjustments (adjusted odds ratio 0.73, 95% confidence interval [0.42?1.29]). Increased gastric volume was associated with longer emergency medical service activity time.<br>
Conclusions: We observed a median gastric volume of 400 ml in patients after OHCA resuscitation. In our setting, gastric distention did not prevent ROSC.

en-subtitle=

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The purpose of the current study was to investigate the relationship between mitochondrial content of commercial frozen-thawed bull spermatozoa and motility. Firstly, mitochondrial DNA copy number per spermatozoon (MDCN), mitochondrial content (MC), the percentage of spermatozoa with high mitochondrial membrane potential (HMMP), intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and motility parameters of frozen-thawed spermatozoa derived from five bulls were determined by using qPCR, flow cytometry and CASA, respectively, and analyzed the relationships. Results showed that all parameters examined, including MDCN, MC, HMMP, ROS and motility indicators, significantly differed among frozen spermatozoa from different bulls. Both MDCN and MC were negatively correlated with HMMP and motility indicators, but positively with ROS, of course, whereas there was a highly positive relationship between MDCN and MC. Secondly, when MDCN and MC were examined in frozen spermatozoa prepared at different points in the lives of four bulls, those did not correlate overall throughout their lives (1.3?14.3 years old), but did correlate significantly in two sires. From these results, we conclude that MDCN and MC of frozen spermatozoa differ among sires, and are negatively correlated with HMMP and sperm motility parameters, probably due to mitochondrial oxidative stress resulted in the presence of ROS, demonstrating that these appear to be useful markers to assess sires’ spermatozoa. It should be noted that the MDCN and MC of bull spermatozoa may not vary overall with the age of the sire, whereas those changes with age in some individuals and may affect sperm motility.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Nitzschia is one of the largest genera of diatoms found in a range of aquatic environments, from freshwater to seawater. This genus contains evolutionarily and ecologically unique species, such as those that have lost photosynthetic capacity or those that live symbiotically in dinoflagellates. Several Nitzschia species have been used as indicators of water pollution. Recently, Nitzschia species have attracted considerable attention in the field of biotechnology. In this study, a transformation method for the marine pennate diatom Nitzschia sp. strain NIES-4635, isolated from the coastal Seto Inland Sea, was established. Plasmids containing the promoter/terminator of the fucoxanthin chlorophyll a/c binding protein gene (fcp, or Lhcf) derived from Nitzschia palea were constructed and introduced into cells by multi-pulse electroporation, resulting in 500 μg/mL nourseothricin-resistant transformants with transformation frequencies of up to 365 colonies per 108 cells. In addition, when transformation was performed using a new plasmid containing a promoter derived from a diatom-infecting virus upstream of the green fluorescent protein gene (gfp), 44% of the nourseothricin-resistant clones exhibited GFP fluorescence. The integration of the genes introduced into the genomes of the transformants was confirmed by Southern blotting. The Nitzschia transformation method established in this study will enable the transformation this species, thus allowing the functional analysis of genes from the genus Nitzschia, which are important species for environmental and biotechnological development.

kn-title=Fine Particulate Matter and Diabetes Prevalence in Okayama, Japan
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Many studies have shown an association between long-term exposure to particulate matter having an aerodynamic diameter of 2.5 μm or less (PM2.5) and diabetes mellitus (DM), but few studies have focused on Asian subjects. We thus examined the association between long-term exposure to PM2.5 and DM prevalence in Okayama City, Japan. We included 76,591 participants who had received basic health checkups in 2006 and 2007. We assigned the census-level modeled PM2.5 data from 2006 and 2007 to each participant and defined DM using treatment status and the blood testing. PM2.5 was associated with DM prevalence, and the prevalence ratio (95% confidence interval) was 1.10 (1.00-1.20) following each interquartile range increase (2.1 μg/m3) in PM2.5. This finding is consistent with previous results and suggests that long-term exposure to PM2.5 is associated with an increased prevalence of DM in Okayama City, Japan, where the PM2.5 level is lower than in other cities in Asian countries.

kn-title=Review of a Series of Surveys on Adverse Reactions to the COVID-19 mRNA-1273 Vaccine at Okayama University
en-subtitle=

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This paper presents the results of a series of surveys conducted from July 2021 to March 2023 to investigate the post-vaccination adverse reactions to the mRNA-1273 (Moderna) vaccine among faculty, staff, and students at Okayama University. These studies complement the official surveys conducted by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) and provide a more representative picture of adverse reactions in the general population including large numbers of healthy young people. Pain, swelling, redness at the injection site, fever, headache, and malaise were the main adverse reactions reported. The proportion of adverse reactions was generally higher after the second vaccination and decreased with each additional vaccination. No statistically significant differences in the adverse reactions were found for males and females and those with/without a history of allergy, but a lower proportion of fever was observed in older participants and those with underlying medical conditions. We also evaluated the association between adverse reactions and antibody titers after the third vaccination and found no significant differences in antibody levels one month after vaccination. This series of studies highlights the importance of conducting surveys in diverse populations to provide a more representative picture of post-vaccination adverse reactions during a pandemic.

kn-title=Adverse reactions in young children receiving the coronavirus disease 2019 vaccine
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: We sought to investigate the occurrence of adverse reactions in Japanese children aged 6?months to 4?years who received the BNT162b2 coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine, to examine parental considerations, and to evaluate potential risk factors associated with post-vaccination fever.<br>
Methods: This cross-sectional survey study targeted 1617 children aged 6?months to 4?years who received their primary doses of BNT162b2 from November 10, 2022, to April 30, 2023, in Okayama Prefecture. We surveyed the occurrence of local and systemic reactions within 1?week after vaccination, and described the incidence proportions of adverse reactions for 515 participants overall and by age group. The study also examined the impact of previous COVID-19 infection and co-administration of the seasonal influenza vaccine on post-vaccination fever. A survey also assessed parents' reasons for vaccinating their children and the sources of information they used.<br>
Results: Adverse reactions were infrequent (5.2%, with fever ?37.5°C; no cases exceeded 39°C) and did not increase with vaccine doses administered. The risk of post-vaccination fever was not statistically associated with a history of COVID-19?the adjusted risk ratio (aRR) was 0.99, and the 95% confidence interval (CI) was 0.41?2.39?but was associated with co-administration of the seasonal influenza vaccine (aRR 3.24, 95% CI 1.14?9.18). Parental decisions regarding vaccination were influenced by official government guidelines and primary care physicians' opinion.<br>
Conclusion: This study provides valuable insight into the safety profile of the BNT162b2 vaccine in Japanese children aged 6?months to 4?years. Further research involving larger cohorts and appropriate control groups is needed.
