| Abstract | Coexisting interstitial phlogopites and pargasites in iron rich wehrlite from the northern Kanto mountains were studied. The textural relationｓ between those interstitial hydrous minerals and major constituent minerals, such as olivines and clinopyroxenes suggest the crystallization of the former from the intergranular residual liquids. The modal amounts of phlogopites in wehrlite are less than 1%, and that of pargasites range from 2 to 5%. Microprobe analyses have been carried for those hydrous minerals and the major constituent minerals. namely, olivine, clinopyroxene and idiomorphic zoned chromite. Olivines in wehrlite from the northern Kanto mountains have rather iron-rich nature and range from Foso to Fo(80) and those coexisting with the hydrous minerals are Fo(82.5) in average. Clinopyroxenes from mica bearing wehrlite contain about 2.5% Al(2)O(3). 17% MgO and 5.5% FeO. Tentative cation per cent of Ca, Mg and Fe are calculated as Ca(42.6) Mg(48.1) Fe(9.3) in average. The present probe analyses show high magnesian nature of the interstitial phlogopites. In addition, these phlogopites are conspicuous by their high TiO(2) content ranging from 4.6 to 5.2%. Mg/Mg + Fe versus Ti relation plotted in Fig. 4 revealed that the present phlogopite are similar to that of the alkaline pyroxenite nodules from the Lashaine volcano, northern Tanzania. Pargasites in mica bearing wehrlite are also rich in TiO(2) (3.0～4.7%), whereas pargasitic common hornblende from hornblendite or gabbro are rather low in TiO(2) (0.9～1.7%). Mg/Mg+Fe+Mn versus Ti relations of amphiboles illustrate that Ti contents increase with decrease of Mg/Mg+Fe +Mn. Two different increasing trend for Ti conten t are also noticed. Idiomorphic chromites show distinct compositional variation from core to rim. Total FeO increases about 16% at rim, whereas TiO(2), Al(2)O(3) and MgO decrease at the rim. Possible crystallization scheme of those hydrous minersls is proposed in Fig. 10, where the maximum stability limits of phlogopite and hornblende are shown with the curve for begining of melting of basalt. Separation of liquid fraction from cumulate phase with a small trapped intergranular liquid might occur at point A. The liquid fraction then might move upward through the course II. In cumulate phase, intergranular liquid might crystallize pargasitic amphibole by the reaction with olivine and clinopyroxene through the course I in Fig. 10. Intergranular liquid might decrease with production of amphiboles and K(2)O might concentrate in residual liquid. At final stage of crystallization, residual liquid rich in K(2)O might crystallize as phlogopite by the reactions with olivine. Decrease of Ti02 content at the nm of idiomorphic chromite might be related to the formations of Ti-rich hydrous minerals. |

| FullText URL | 044_055_060.pdf |
| Author | Kitayama, Minoru| |
| Abstract | The physically handicapped persons caused by rheumatoid arthritis were studied in Tottori prefecture in July 1973. The following results were obtained ; 1. The hand i capped per sons of 265, who were recognized as the handicapped by the government authori ties, were observed. The prevalence rate was 4.7 to 10,000 of the population and 15 to 1, 000 of the total number of the hand i capped. 2. The prevalence rate of the handicapped to the total number of patients with rheumatoid arthritis was 15.4%. 3. On a reginal distribution, the prevalence rate of the handicapped to the regional population were calculated between from 0.20‰ to 0.77‰. The result showed that it was higher at rural than at urban districts. 4. The prevalence rate to population gradually increased with aging, especially over the fiftieth years. The prevalence rate of the number of serious handicapped (class 1+2) to the total number of handicapped was regnlarly at 40% between 30 and 60 years of age, but it increased over 70 years of age. 5. The sex ratio of fernIe to male was 3.3 : 1 on the total handicapped and 2.9 : 1 on the serious handicapped persons. On the other hand, the ratio was 5.1 : 1 on the group under 59 year s of age and 2.4 : 1 on the groupe over 60 years of age at the total handicapped. And then, the ratio was 5.0 : 1 on the younger group and 2.6 : 1 on the older group at the serious handicapped persons. |

| Abstract | I MEDSPECT is a medical mass spectrometer for continuous in-vivo measurement of tissue, blood and respiratory gases. Interfacing catheter for tissue in measurement has Teflon membrane. The permeability and perfusion rate for various gases through its membrane varied with temperature. The temperature coefficient of Teflon catheter in the range of 15℃-40℃ is approximately constant with -2% of correction per degree for oxygen and carbon dioxide. Linear correlation was confirmed experimentally. II The brain tissue gas tensions were measured in ten dogs with intra-venous anesthesia at normothermia and deep hypothermia using perfusion cooling, including circulatory arrest for 30 minutes at 20°C of cerebral temperature. On average, the brain tissue P(O2) was 15mmHg in normothermia when the arterial P(O2) showed 95mmHg and the brain tissue P(CO2) was 49mmHg when the arterial PC02 showed 30mmHg. The brain tissue carbon dioxide tension gradually decreased by cooling and increased during circulatory arrest for 30 minutes; from 45mmHg to 72mmHg. The brain tissue oxygen tension increased during cooling from 15mmHg to 41mmHg and decreased in the circulatory arrest; from 41mmHg to 36mmHg. III The ischemic muscle gas tension was measured in a 22-year-old man, who was suffered from thromboangiitis obliterans bilaterally, and had the popliteal autovein bypass surgery 3 months ago. Control oxygen tensions in the both anterior tibial muscles showed about the same; 35mmHg and 36mmHg respectivelly, and the P(O2) of the non-operated side showed remarkable low level of 18mmHg as compared with the side of arterial reconstruction surgery after 5-minutes ankle exercise. |

| Title Alternative | Applications of critical point drying for scanning electron microscopic study of clay minerals |
| FullText URL | pitsr_044_001_006.pdf |
| Author | Noishiki, Yasuharu| Tazaki, Kazue| |
| Abstract | The scanning electron microscopic studies of the clay minerals have usually been made on air-dried samples. The air-drying method is, however, not always preferable for H(2)O rich clay minerals such as imogolite because of their strong contraction in the dehydration process. The present writers examined the critical point drying for H(2)O rich clay mineral (imogolite) and proved that this drying method is excellent in preservation of natural surface of the minerals than that of air-drying. Imogolite which examined was separated from Kurayoshi pumice beds. The samples were treated first with OsO(4) solution and then were dehydrated progressively with ethanol. After completing above treatments, the imogolites which sealed in vessel were dried successively at critical point of CO(2). The samples were mounted onto brass stubs and coated first with carbon and then with Au-Pd alloy. The Japan Electron Optics Laboratory Co. scanning electron microscope Model JSM-50A which was installed in the Division of Rehabilitation Medicine in the present Institute was used at the operating conditions: accelerating voltage 25kV, magnifications ranging from 3000 to 40000. The scanning electron micrographs of the air-dried imogolite are shown in plate I, and cry tical point dried ones are in plate II and III. The former shows twig-like shape which indicated the effect of contractility, whereas the latter exhibits softly curled and entangled threads. The diameter of these threads ranges from 280A to 560A. |

| Title Alternative | Studies on lithium in the field of balneology : Effects of lithium salts on analgesic activity of aminopyrine |
| FullText URL | pitsr_045_025_031.pdf |
| Author | Furuno, Katsushi| Mifune, Masaaki| |
| Abstract | The authors studied the effect of pretreatment with internal use of lithium salts on analgesic activity of aminopyrine by hot-plate test in mice. The male mice at 4 weeks of age weighting 17-19 g were divided into 7 groups. Earch group being composed of 9-10 mice was given oraBy 0.1 ml of LiCI-solution per 10 g of body weight for 35 days, LiCl was dissolved in 0.9% saline solution, in such concentrations that each group received 0 mg, 50 mg, 100mg, 200 mg and 400mg of LiCl for each kg of body weight of mouse, respectively, Control group received only 0.9% saline solution. On the 1st, 3rd, 7th, 14th, 21st, 28th and 35th days of this experiment, 0.1 ml of 1% solution of aminopyrine per 109 of body weight was injected intraperitoneaJly and then tested 30 minutes later. In the hot-plate test, a mouse is placed on a hot plate being adjusted with the thermostat at 55°±1℃, and the response is licking or lifting the hind feet or an outright attempt to escape from the plate, The increase in response time is used to quantify the analgesic effect of aminopyrine, The results were as follows : 1. The response time in groups receiving 0-50 mg of LiCl per kg of body weight had decreased on the 14 th day, but it tended to return to the initial level after the 21st day of experiment. 2. The response time in groups receiving 100-400 mg of LiCl per kg of body weight had also decreased on the 14 th day, and the degree of the decrease in response time was greater than that of the former and then remained faily constant at this level to the end of the observation period. These results would indicate that LiCl inhibits the analgesic activity of aminopyrine. |

| Title Alternative | 斜長石から生成したギブサイトの走査電顕観察―大山および三瓶山降下地積物中の粘土鉱物,その8― |
| FullText URL | pitsr_045_011_024.pdf |
| Author | Tazaki, Kazue| |
| Abstract | 大山降下堆積物中の斜長石のギブサイト化過程を,偏光顕微鏡,X線,示差熱分析,走査型電顕,EPMAを用いて調べた. 斜長石は風化によって,カオリナイト,イライト,ハロイサイト,ギブサイト等を生成することが知られているが,今回,ギブサイト化した斜長石についてのみ検討をおこなった. EPMA分析によれば,一個の斜長石の表面に,Al, Si, Na, Caの多く存在する新鮮な斜長石の部分と,Na, Caをほとんど含まず,多量のAlと,ごく少量のSiを含んでいるギブサイトの部分とが分布し,その境界は, 明瞭であることがわかった（図版2）.それぞれの部分の分析値は第1表のとおりである. 走査型電顕による斜長石の微細形態観察から,下記のことが明らかになった. ①新鮮な斜長石の表面は,平滑かまたは離溶ラメラがみとめられる（図版3-1）. ②風化過程の初期に,水を合んだ非晶質の薄層が,斜長石の表層に生成する.この非晶質薄層の生成にさき立って,斜長石の表面の一部に, ロート状のくぼみが形成される場合がある（図版3-2,3）. ③この非晶質薄層に亀裂が生じる（図版4）.一方, ロート状のくぼみの上にも非晶質の薄層ができ,亀裂が生じる（図版8-1,2）. ④さらに風化が進むと,ラメラ, 亀裂およびロート状のくぼみを部分的に残しながら,-･部には,ギブサイトの結晶が生成する（図版5）. ⑤ギブサイトの結晶は,横1～3μm, 縦2～15μm, 厚さ0.5μm前後の平板状の形態,または,直径15-25μm,厚さ0.5～1μm の円盤上の形態をもつ（図版6）. ⑥ギブサイトの結晶は,平板状のものが数段重なり,集合体をなす場合もあり（図版7-1）,これは,ブラジルのミナス鉱山産のギブサイトの集合状態（図版7-2）とよく似ている. すなわち,斜長石の表面に,風化により,水を含んだ非晶質の薄層ができ,次に,その薄層に亀裂が生じ,イモゴライトの生成をともないながら,直接ギブサイトが結晶すると考えられる. 地名 Okachi 大河内 Hongu 本宮 Kurayoshi 倉吉 Daisen-Cho 大山町 Shuki 秋喜 Hiruzenbara 蒜山原 |

| Title Alternative | The effect of radioactive thermal bathing upon catecholamines of the whole brain of male mice |
| FullText URL | pitsr_045_007_010.pdf |
| Author | Ito, Keiko| |
| Abstract | The author studied the changes of catecholamine levels of the whole brain of male mice weighing 15-20g before and after a single bathing for 20 minutes, 37±1℃ in temperature, in the radioactive hot spring in Misasa (Rn content : 74.83×10(-10)C/l), and compared the results obtained with those of the plain hot water bathing. The catecholamines (dopamine and noradrenaline) were measured by gaschromatographic method using electrone capture detector. It may be summarized as follows : 1. No significant change of dopamine and noradrenaline levels of the whole brain of mice was recognized before and after the plain hot water bathing used as a control. 2. Noradrenaline levels of the whole brain of mice had increased following the radioactive hot spring bath, and remained at same levels for 30 minutes after bathing. Dopamine levels had no change immediately after bathing, but had lowered at 30 minutes from the time of the bath. 3. Causes of these results are under investigation. |

| Title Alternative | Micromorphology of dendritic titanaugite |
| FullText URL | pitsr_045_001_006.pdf |
| Author | Tazaki, Koichi| |
| Abstract | Dendritic titanaugite in ultrabasic picrite basalt from the Mineoka tectonic belt, Boso peninsula shows two contrastive morphology such as ; 1) ferny type and 2) skeletal type. Scanning electron microscopic observation reveals that there are three types of morphology as follows; 1) the cluster of needle crystals (Plate I-2, 3), 2) the pile of rail or fence like crystals (Plate II), 3) the stepped crystals (Plate III). The needle crystals have the cross section of distorted ellipsoid with 2 to 5μm in long diameter. The skeletal type morphology is ascribed to the cross section of the pile of rail or fence like crystals. The ferny type morphology comprises the clusters of needle and rail or fence like crystals. |

| Title Alternative | Hydrogen and oxygen isotopic ratios of thermal and mineral springs in Arima area |
| FullText URL | pitsr_043_015_028.pdf |
| Author | Matsubaya, Osamu| Sakai, Hitoshi| Tsurumaki, Michiji| |
| Abstract | Saline waters of thermal and mineral springs in Arima area, at Takarazuka, and in Ishibotoke area of Kawachinagano City indicate wide ranges of δD and δ(18)O values (Table 1). Excellent linearity exists between the δD and δ(18)O values (Fig. 1) and between the δ(18)O value and the chloride concentration (Fig. 2). These facts as well as the chemical evidence of the previous investigators strongly support the view that Arima springs are admixtures of a single deep brine and local ground water (TSURUMAKI, 1964). The deep brine may have the δ(18)O value of +8.0～+8.5‰, the δD value of -25～-30‰, and the chloride concentration of 1.20～1.25 eq/l, which were estimated from the water of the maximum salinity so far reported. Because the thermal and mineral springs in Arima area closely associate with the upper Cretaceous granitic rocks, and the estimated δ(18)O value of the deep brine is similar to a value of water in isotopic equilibrium with those granitic rocks at 500～600℃, the deep brine of Arima might have been the magmatic water of those granitic rocks. The mineral springs at Takarazuka and in Ishibotoke area also show the similar linearity among Cl(-), δ(18)O and δD to those in Arima area. Therefore it is assumed that the mineral springs at Takarazuka may be of the same origin as that in Arima area, and the mineral springs in Ishibotoke area might have been the fluid associated with Ryoke metamorphic rocks. Alternatively, the deep brine in Arima area may be isotopically and chemically similar to the saline formation waters in Illinois basin (GRAF et al., 1966). The high δD values and salinities of those formation waters were attributed to the isotopic and chemical fractionation during the passage of water through sediments. The deep brine in Arima area may be genetically similar to those saline formation waters. If such a saline water could have formed in Osaka basin, it is not surprising to find out the similar brines at Arima and Ishibotoke which are the northwestern and southeastern rims of the basin, respectively. At the present, it cannot be answered which of these two models is more probable. Further studies on other saline springs fluid inclusions of Cretaceous granitic rocks may be useful in order to solve this problem. |

| Title Alternative | Determination of manganese in serum by atomic absorption spectrophotometry |
| FullText URL | pitser_046_037_043.pdf |
| Author | Furuno, Katsushi| |
| Abstract | The manganese (Mn) concentrations in serum of 40 healthy controls (9 males and 31 females), and of 26 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (4males and 22 females) were determined using a HITACHI MODEL 207 atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Wavelength of Mn determination was setted at 2795 A. Flow rate of acetylene was setted at 3.0 l/min and lamp current was setted at 10 rnA. The serum samples were ashed by IPC MODEL 1003plasma machine, and dissolved in 3N-HCl and evapolate on the hot plate, and redissolved in constant volume of 0.1 N-HCl. These sample solution were aspirated directly into the burner. Mn levels in serum were estimated by standard curve. The mean recoverry rate of ashedsample solution was 100.1%, and that of serum by ashing process was 101.6%. The serum Mn levels in 40 healthy controls and 26 patients with rheumatoid arthritis were 2.19 ± 0.34 (S.D.), 3.04 ± 1.01 (S.D.) μg/100ml respectively. The serum Mn levels in rheumatoid arthritis were significantly higher than healthy control levels (p<0.001). In 10 of 26 cases (38%) with rheumatoid arthritis, the serum Mn levels were shown to be above the upper limit of 5% rejection limit of healthy controls. |

Wavelength and lamps current of Cu and Zn were setted at 3247 A, 2139 A, and 10mA, 9mA respectively. Flow rate of acetylene and air were setted at 3.0 l/min, and 13.0 l/min. The stock standard solutions of Cu and Zn were 0.5 mg, 1.0mg, 2.0mg and 3.0mg per 100mE in 0.01 N·HCl. For working standard solutions, these stock standard solutions were diluted to 50μg/100ml. 100μg/100ml, 200μg/100ml and 300μg/100ml with 20% glycerine. Serum and working standard so· lutions of Cu and Zn were diluted five fold with deionized distillation water, then aspirated directly into the burner. The relative absorbance was expressed as scale reading by a HITACHI MODEL QPD-54 recorder. Various acids and other elements had few influences on the determi· nations of Cu and Zn. The mean recovery rate of Cu and Zn in serum were 100.5% and 100.8% respectively. By this method, the levels of Cu and Zn in healthy controls were 103.0±14.5 (S.D.), 116.2±18.6 (S.D.) μg/100ml in males and 108.7±19.6 (S. D.), 110.3±14.7 (S.D.) μg/100ml in females respectively. No sex difference were observed. The ratio of Cu and Zn (Cu/Zn ratio) of healthy controls were 0.89±0.17 (S. D.) in males and O.99±0.25 in (S.D.) females. The sex differrences of Cu/Zn ratio were statistically significant (p<0.05). The levels of Cu and Zn in rheumatoid arthritis were 141.7±25.2 (S.D.). 89.1±14.5 (S.D.) /-Lg/100 mP and 154.l±29.7 (S.D.), 86.7±18.1 (S.D.) μg/100ml in females respectively. No sex differren· ces were observed. The Cu/Zn ratio were 1.64±0.43 (S.D.) in males and 1.82±0.48 (S.D.) in females, wich showed no sex differrences. In patients with rheumatoid arthritis, serum Cu levels were significantly higher (P<0.001) and serum Zn levels were significantly lower (P<0.001) than in healthy controls in both sexes. The Cu/Zn ratio were significantly higher (P<0.001) rheumatoid arthritis than in controls. The serum Cu in 13 of 19 males (68%), and 30 of 49 females (61 %), with rheumatoid arthritis were shown to be above the upper limit of 5% rejection limit in healthy controls. The serum Zn in 3 of 19 males (16%), and in 24 of 49 (47%) with rheumatoid arthritis were shown to be below the lower limit 5% rejection limit in healthy controIs. The Cu/Zn ratio in rheumatoid arthritis, in 14 of 19 males (74%), and in 35 of 49 females (71%) were shown to be above the upper limit of 5% rejection limit in healthy of males and females. So, differences in Cu/Zn ratio between healthy controls and rheumatoid arthritis were proved to be more pronounced. |

| Abstract | In an attempt to evaluate circulatory changes in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), 20 patients with classical or definite RA as determined by ARA criteria and twenty healthy volunteers serving as control were randomly selected. None of the patients showed the clinical signs suggesting Raynaud's phenomenon. Thermograms as well as photoelectric plethysmograms were obtained solely from the right middle finger tip of each examinee. The whole hand was then immersed in the cold (10℃) water and kept there for one minute. After wiping away the wet hand with a dry towel very gently, we followed the sequential changes of the tempe· rature of the third finger tip and the period of time necessary for the tip to return to the original temperature prior to the cold water immersion was measured and expressed as 'return time' in minute. Before exposure to the cold, the mean values of temperature of the finger tips between the two groups were not significantly different. As opposed to the normal pattern in which one can find the warmest point at the finger tip and which was more frequently found in the control group of the current study, a type in which the distal part of the finger was much cooler than the proximal area (so-called 'distal cold type') was observed in 8 RA patients, whereas only four demonstrated this pattern in the control group. After brief exposure to the cold, eight out of 20 rheumatoid patients showed much prolonged return time (longer than 20 minutes), while only three of 20 controls remained with prolonged cool periphery, The difference between the two, however, was not statistically significant. Studies of the digital plethysmograph revealed that 70% of all the rheumatoids showed abnormal patterns: sclerotic and monophasic waves were discovered in 55% of the patients. In contrast, seventy percent of the normal control demonstra· ted normal wave pattern. Although the significant difference was not noted, the mean height of the systolic peak of the plethysmograph derived from the rheumatoid group tended to be much reduced, suggesting the reduced blood volume at the finger tips. Six RA patients and 13 normals who showed normal plethysmographic pattern before immersion in the cold water, demonstrated rapid return to the original temperature. Only in one normal control with a normal wave pattern, prolonged return time was observed, although the height of the systolic peak of the plethysmogram in this particular case was well within normal limit. Digital circulatory disturbance, however, was strongly suspected in eight RA patients with severely prolonged return time, They all showed abnormal wave patterns of the plethysmogram, including 2 cases with peripheral plateau wave, Markedly reduced heights of the systolic peaks were also demonstrated in all. Further elaborate studies including digital arteriography were indicated to implicate any organic change in the digital vessels, such as digital arteritis in RA first reported by Bywaters in 1957. |

| Abstract | This is a report of cancer of the stomach encountered in a 71-year-old man who admitted to the hospital with complain of epigastralgia. He had undergo a two third gastrectomy with gastroduodenostomy 24 years before because of severe gastritis. For several years he had ambulatory treatment for diabetes mellitus, which was under good control. Laboratory examination revealed that red-cell count was 4,800,000, white-cell count 11,500 ; hemoglobin was 12.7gr. per 100ml, hematocrit 49.5 per cent. Total serum protein was 8.2%. The stool was positive for occult blood and the urine negative for protein. X-ray studies in barium filled stomach in upright position revealed a filling defect in the lessor curvature side. In the prone and supine double contrast studies, a lesion was visualized of irregular outline with marked surface unevenness. Endoscopically, a rough tumor resembling Borrman Type III cancer was found near the stoma on the anterior wall of gastric remnant. Marginal blending and convergency of the folds showing sudden cessation around the ulcer were recognized as well. These findings led the authors to the diagnosis of the cancer developing in the gastric remnant and total gastrectomy with esophagojejunostomia was performed. Reports of cancer in the gastric remnant detected more than 20 years after the first operation are so small in number. |

| Abstract | Early process of peritoneal inflammation on rat by ultraviolet irradiation was studied histologically and scanning electron microscopic· ally. After 1 minute irradiation of ultraviolet, minimal exudation on mesothelium was found. After 15 minutes irradiation, microvillies on mesothelium were covered with exudate. After 20 minutes, fibrin fibers appeared on intact mesothelium. Though the fibers wafted in exudate, the fibers could be cleared up by irrigation of saline. After 30 minutes, white and red cells appeared on the nest of fibrin fibers. After 45 minutes, edema came out at subserosal layer. After 1 hour, mesothelium was covered with fibrin fibers, white and red cells. But the coated fur could be washed off by jet irrigation of saline and intact mesothelium benearth the fur appeared. These results indicate that washing a peritoneal cavity by saline after abdominal operation is of practical value to prevent a intestinal adhesion due to post operative intestinal inflammation. Inflammatory changes of intestinal mesothlium was clearly demonstrated by scanning electron microscope and these observations revealed that scanning electron microscope was very useful for the study of inflammation which occured on the surfaces of organs. |
