Purpose Lateral lymph node dissection (LLND) is performed for advanced lower rectal cancer (ALRC) in Japan. The LLND in laparotomy is performed via the extraperitoneal approach, which is similar to radical retropubic prostatectomy (RRP). Inguinal hernias (IHs) appearing after RRP are common. However, there are few reports about IHs appearing after LLND. Methods In part A, we retrospectively investigated...
This Letter reports on the first measurements of the lowest lying triplet states as studied by electron energy loss spectroscopy for C 4 F 6 isomers, hexafluoro-1,3-butadiene (1,3-C 4 F 6 ), hexafluorocyclobutene (c-C 4 F 6 ) and hexafluoro-2-butyne (2-C 4 F 6 ). This study has been performed at an incident electron energy of 30eV, 30°,...
At the “A” psychiatric hospital, previously nurses used paper-based nursing staffs' daily records. We aimed to manage the higher quality nursing and introduced “electronic management system for nursing staffs' daily records system (ENSDR)” interlocked with “Psychoms®” into this hospital. Some good effects were achieved by introducing this system. However, some problems have been left in this system...
It is important for health care staff to understand patients' emotion and affective changes. Health care staffs should understand the patients' world as if this was his her own. This is called "empathic understanding". To understand the emotional process, electroencephalograph recording (EEG) was performed on five healthy participants while watching the sentimental movie which was 24-minutes...
In 2003, the Japanese government set an approximate goal of 72,000 social hospitalization in-patients being discharged in 10 years from psychiatric hospitals to the community. To meet this challenge, the clinical pathway (CP) is a useful model for managing the team's progress in providing health care services. High quality discharge planning for patients requires continuous refinement of CP including...
A new combustion catalyst system for gas turbines composed of high-temperature durable ceramic catalysts made of fine manganese-substituted hexaaluminate particles and noble metal-carrying cordierite honeycomb catalysts has been developed. A 160 kW prototype catalytic combustor turbine rigged with a 220 mm in diameter catalyst system was constructed and tested including a continuous 215-hour operation...
