Relationship between premenstrual syndrome and sex hormones during menstrual cycle
月経前に現れる心身の不調は月経前症候群(premenstrual syndrome:以下PMS)と呼ばれている。PMS の特徴は月経前の黄体期後期に感情的症状や身体的症状の変化が出現し、月経開始とともにそれらの症状が減退、消失することである。PMS が重度の場合、生活の質を著しく低下させ、本人だけではなく彼女らの家族や仕事などの生活環境にも影響を及ぼすため社会的にも大きな問題であると考えられている。
PMS の原因は過剰なエストロゲン、黄体ホルモンの欠乏またはエストロゲンと黄体ホルモンの比率の変化の関与が示唆されているが、PMSと性ホルモン濃度との関係については未だ解明されていない。
よって本研究では、健常な女子大学生を対象にアンケートによりPMS 症状の程度を測定し、対象者の唾液から性ホルモンおよびストレス誘導ホルモンを解析し、PMS の程度と各種ホルモンとの関係について調べた。
その結果、PMS 症状の強群は弱群と比較し、性周期を通して性ホルモンが高い値で推移し、とりわけ排卵期のテストステロンは強群で有意に高い値を示した。またストレス誘導ホルモンについては排卵期および黄体期で高い傾向を示した。これらのホルモンの動態が PMS 症状を重症化させる要因であると考えられた。Mental and physical discomfort preceding menstruation is referred to as premenstrual syndrome (PMS). PMS is characterized by changes in emotional and physical symptoms in the late luteal phase before menstruation, followed by their subsequent decline or disappearance with the start of menstruation. In cases of severe PMS, the quality of life of women is significantly reduced, affecting not only the women themselves but also their living environments, such as their family and work; therefore, it is considered a major social problem.
It has been suggested that the causes of PMS are excessive production of estrogen, deficiency of luteal hormone, or changes in the ratio of estrogen to luteal hormone; however, the factors involved in PMS are complicated, and the relationship between PMS and reproductive hormone levels in the sexual cycle has not been clarified yet.
Therefore, in this study, we sought the cooperation of healthy female university students to participate in the experiment. We used a questionnaire to assess the degree of PMS symptoms ; we then analyzed the sex and stress-inducing hormones associated with the menstrual cycle from the participants’ saliva. Furthermore, we investigated the relationship between the degree of PMS and various hormones to obtain findings to elucidate the means to alleviate PMS symptoms.
The results showed that, compared to the mild PMS symptom group, reproductive hormones remained at a high level throughout the menstrual cycle in the strong PMS symptom group, and in particular, the testosterone level in the ovulation phase was significantly higher in the strong group. In addition, stress‒inducing hormones tended to be higher in the ovulation phase and luteal phase. The dynamics of these hormones were thought to be the factors exacerbating PMS symptoms.departmental bulletin pape
Beauty Lotion 'Lait Sopra' and NAGAI Ikuko: An Investigation of her Concert Tour in the Fall of 1929
ソプラノ歌手の永井郁子(1893〜1983)が展開した邦語歌唱運動(1925〜1941)において、レート白粉本舗平尾賛平商店とタイアップして行った1929年秋の演奏旅行は一際異彩を放っている。その実態を明らかにすると共に、その社会的な意味を考えることが本稿の目的である。
調査の結果、9月下旬から東京(4回)、横浜、大阪(4回)、神戸、京都の計11回、11月中旬に奈良、和歌山、岡山、高松(2回)、松山、広島、福岡(3回)、熊本、大分の計12回、と合わせて少なくとも23回の独唱会を実施し、どの会場も大入りであったことが明らかになった。
これは新化粧水「レートソプラ」の発売記念行事として行われたもので、「お耳にソプラノお手にはソプラ」のキャッチフレーズも用いられた。新聞広告を多用しながら、各地の化粧品店とレート会の顧客のネットワークを通じて全国展開したものと理解される。
化粧品会社による冠コンサートが日本で盛んになるのは戦後の1970年代であり、1929年という突出して早い時期に行われた平尾賛平商店によるこれら一連の独唱会は、極めて先駆的な例と位置づけられる。In the 'Movement for Singing in Japanese' (1925-1941) led by soprano singer NAGAI Ikuko (1893-1983), the performance tour in the fall of 1929 stands out, in that it was tied up with Lait White Powder Cosmetics, run by HIRAO Sampei Shōten, Ltd. The purpose of this paper is to clarify its details and to consider its social significance.
As a result of this survey, it has become clear that she gave eleven recitals in late September : four in Tokyo, one in Yokohama, four in Osaka, one in Kobe, and one in Kyoto; and twelve recitals in mid‒November : one in Nara, one in Wakayama, one in Okayama, two in Takamatsu, one in Matsuyama, one in Hiroshima, three in Fukuoka, one in Kumamoto, and one in Oita. Every concert drew a large audience.
These concerts were held to promote the release of the new beauty lotion "Lait Sopra", and the catchphrase "Soprano for your ears and Sopra for your hands" was also used. This was presumably propagated nationwide through the network of cosmetics stores and Lait customers associations in various regions, while making heavy use of newspaper advertisements.
Although classical concerts sponsored by cosmetics companies flourished in Japan in the 1970s, Nagai’s were extremely pioneering examples, taking place as early as in 1929.departmental bulletin pape
Revised Handmade Well Plates Composed of Plastic Bottle Caps and White Cardboard Containers for Microscale Experiments
ウェルプレートは、マイクロスケール実験でよく使用される。しかし、その価格が高価なため、理科教員が公費で購入できない場合もある。中川はウェルプレートの代用として、ペットポトルキャップと白板紙製容器からなる手作りウェルプレートを提案した。不幸にして、マイクロスケール実験を行う際、この手作りウェルプレートにいくつかの検討すべき事項が見出された。そこで、容器の展開図の実線に沿った「切り目」以外に、新規に破線に沿った「谷折り」や、ウェル内の位置を表す番号ij(i 行 j 列)を、容器内の正方形の上部に表記した。このように容器の展開図を修正して、改訂版手作りウェルプレートを作成した。本論考では、この改訂版手作りウェルプレートをマイクロスケール実験で用いる際の長所や化学反応への応用、さらには遠隔授業における有用性について考察した。その結果、改訂版手作りウェルプレートに対して、次の事項が期待できる:(1)ペットボトルのキャップをこれまでよりも容易に使用できること。(2)複数の化学反応を一度に実施できること。そして、(3)遠隔授業において重要な役割を果たすこと。Well plates are usually used for microscale experiments. However, these prices are expensive and schoolteachers cannot often purchase them at public expense. Nakagawa has already proposed the alternative kits for well plates: the handmade well plates which are composed of plastic bottle caps and white cardboard containers. Unfortunately, several disadvantages of the former handmade well plates have been found in doing microscale experiments. Therefore, besides “Cut” along solid lines, the new explanation “Valley-Fold” is added along dashed lines and the number ij, which means the position with the i-th raw and the j-th column, represents at the top of the corresponding square in a container. In this paper, the advantages of the revised handmade well plates for microscale experiments, the application of these plates to various chemical reactions and their validity for remote classes are discussed. Consequently, the followings items are expected for the revised handmade well plates: (1) using plastic bottle caps more easily, (2) doing a few chemical reactions at a time, and (3) playing an important role in remote classes.departmental bulletin pape
"The Revolution of Human Spirit" in Ibsen’s 《A Doll’s House》
ノルウェーの作家ヘンリック・イプセン(Henrik Ibsen, 1828-1906)の社会劇『人形の家』は1879年にデンマーク王立劇場で初演されて以来、約140年間にわたり世界の各地で上演されている。日本でも、1911年に当時の文芸協会会長だった坪内逍遥宅で公演されて以来、頻繁に上演され日本人に広く知られている。現在もこの作品に人々が惹きつけられている背景には、あのセンセーショナルな結末に人々が今もなお魅せられつづけているからかもしれない。本作は、女性解放問題だけでなく、人間としての在り方、自由と解放、個人と社会の関係など様々な要素が凝縮された作品でもある。本論では、これらの要素の基盤となっているイプセンの「人間精神の革命」に焦点をあて、原文を参照しながら考察したい。Norwegian writer Henrik Ibsens’ (1828-1906) social drama "A Dolls’ House" has been performed around the world for about 140 years since it premiered at the Royal Danish Theater in 1879. Even in Japan, it has been performed frequently since it was first performed at Tsubouchi Shoyo’s residence, who was the chairman of the Literary Society at that time in 1911, and since then is has been widely known to the Japanese. The background that people are still attracted to this work may be that people are still fascinated by the sensational ending of Nora. However this work not only shows the issue of women’s liberation, but is also a condensed work of various elements such as identity, freedom and liberation, and the relationship between individuals and society. In this paper, I focus on Ibsen’s "Revolution of the Human Spirit" , which is the basis of these elements, and consider it with reference to the original text.departmental bulletin pape
Minamoto-no-Toshizane Who was a Police and Judicial Chief, Described as ‘Loved Waka Poems’.
本稿は、『恵慶集』の一本に記された断章的な歌がたりを発端に、武官として生涯を終えた源俊実(1046~1119)の官歴を確認の上、俊実の歌合出詠等の和歌事績を集成し、当該『恵慶集』記載本文を考証したものである。俊実は、検非違使の別当、また大納言として、政治的活動が伝わり、その和歌は『金葉和歌集』以下の勅撰集に3首入集する。本稿が対象とする本文は和歌3首と詞書分、行数わずかに31行分の独自本文で、俊実にまつわる歌話となっている。熊本守雄『恵慶集 校本と研究』(桜楓社 1978年)、『新編私家集大成』(古典ライブラリー Web 版)の『恵慶集』解題に全文が載るが、これまで特に論じられていない。前半は俊実が少将であった時、後半は検非違使の別当であった時のことを記す。なお3首のうち1首は『後拾遺和歌集』雑三巻軸歌の上東門院中将の作であり、同集詞書とは異なる詠作事情を示すことからこの点にも考察を加えた。
詞書中に「歌を好み給ふ」と記される俊実は、当意即妙に女に歌を詠み、盗人の歌才により罪を免ずる別当として描かれる。俊実の一面を活写した歌物語的な詞書からは、残された歌数は多くはないが公卿として堀河天皇歌壇に列した俊実の姿が浮かび上がる。Given the literarily fragmented Japanese poetries described in ‘Egyoushu’, this manuscript collected the achievements of waka poem by Minamoto-no-Toshizane (1046-1119), who lived out as his life as a military officer, and the collection includes waka poems written at the Uta-awase. Also, this study ascertained his official history, and investigated the part of ‘Egyoushu’.
Political activities of Toshizane, as a political and judicial chief or a chief councillor of state, was conveyed, and 3 pieces of corresponding waka poems was collected in ‘Kinyou-wakasyu’, ‘Senzai-wakasyu’ and ‘Shintyokusen-wakasyu’, one by one.
The main documents highlighted in this study are 3 pieces of waka poems and lyrics, being comprised of only 31 lines, have never been discussed, while all documents were shown in “Text and study on ‘Egyoushu’” (by Morio Kumamoto, Oufuusya, 1978) and a commentary on ‘Egyoushu’ by ‘Shikasyu-taisei’.
This part has the extraordinarily unique content and the poetry story about Toshizane. The documents deals with the period during Toshizane was a young officer and a political and judicial chief, in the former and the latter part of it, respectively.
Meanwhile, one of those 3 pieces was shown in ‘Goshui-wakasyu’ as the last waka poem of a volume ‘Zou 3’, which was written by Joutoumonin-no-tyujou, and the author added some discussion because that exhibits distinct situations of writing poems from those of the lyrics.
Toshizane, portrayed as the man who loved waka poems in the lyrics, was described as a political and judicial chief who wrote the love waka poems with readiness of wit and declared a thief not guilty because he wrote remarkable waka poems.
The lyrics, which described vividly an aspect of Toshizane, highlighted his appearance that he joined the poem circles of Emperor Horikawa although he only wrote a few waka poems.departmental bulletin pape
Does a Parent-Child Relationship Become Like Friendship in Adolescence ? The Association between Mother-Daughter Relationships and Self-Esteem in Female Adolescents
思春期から青年期は「第二の分離・個体化」の時期とされ、子どもが心理的に親からの分離を行い、個としての自己を形成することが課題となり、親に対して秘密を持つことや、同性友人との間で親密な関係を築くことが重要となる。ところが最近の傾向として、親子関係の友だち化と言える現象があると指摘されている。本研究では、従来より認識されている親の養育態度(養護・過保護)と、対等な友人関係に相似した親子関係を、PBI 尺度および chumship 体験尺度を用いて測定し、娘の自尊感情との関連を検討した。その結果、大学生女子が想起した16歳までの母親の養育態度の「養護」の傾向が強いほど、また「母親との連帯・共有の強さ」「母親との同一化」の傾向が強いほど、自尊感情が高かった。本来は思春期頃に同性友人との間で体験する関係性を、母親との間で体験することが、娘の自尊感情との関連を示した。この結果から、思春期以降も母親との間で親密な関係を築き心理的適応を高めている女子青年の姿が示されたが、発達課題である母娘間の分離が回避されているのではないかと考えられ、娘の母親からの第二の分離・個体化の過程が遷延化される傾向にあると考えられた。Adolescence is the time of “second separation-individuation.” Children have to separate from their parents psychologically and create themselves as individuals. At the same time, they begin keeping secrets from their parents and form intimate friendships among same-sex friends. Recently, it has been said that the parent-child relationship during adolescence has become like friendship. In this study, we examined the relationship between the recalled parent-child relationship and self-esteem in female adolescents. We used the Parental Bonding Instrument scale (PBI), which measured the traditional parent-child relationship, and the chumship-experience scale, which measured equal friendship. We found that as the nurturing tendency of the recalled parent-child relationship increased, the self-esteem of female adolescents increased. Additionally, when the tendency of “solidarity and sharing between mother and child” and “identification with mother” was high, the self-esteem of female adolescents increased. When female adolescents experienced a chumship relationship with their mother, which they originally experienced among same-sex friends, their self-esteem showed a higher score. The results show that female adolescents tend to have intimate relationships with their mothers during adolescence which helps maintain their mental health, although separation from their mother is avoided because they are closely attached to their mother. Therefore, it is considered that the process of the second separation-individuation of young women from their mother is delayed.departmental bulletin pape
