Effect of Endurance Physical Exercise with Tea Catechin in a Short Term on Body Composition and Urinary C-peptide and Blood Lipid Components
This study investigated the short-term effects of endurance exercise with tea catechin. Six
healthy female university students participated in the crossover experiment for eight days( four
days×2). In the first two days, all subjects spent their daily lives without exercise [restperiod
]. Then, we divided the subjects into two groups and they spent another two days. One
group exercised at an intensity of approximately 50% of their maximal oxygen uptake [Experiod
]. They consumed 440 kcal. The other group did the same exercise with tea catechin
[TC-Ex-period]. During the experiment, the subjects ate experimental diets (Energy:2200kcal,
Protein:11.8%, Fat:27.8%, Carbohydrate:60.4%). Body composition (body weight, body fat ratio,
body fat mass, lean body mass, and muscle mass) and blood lipid components (total cholesterol,
HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, and triglycerides( TG)) were measured at 7:00 AM every day.
Total urine samples for 24 hours were collected between 7:00 AM and 7:00 AM. Creatinine and
C-peptide excretion were measured from the urine samples.
Body composition, creatinine excretion, C-peptide excretion, and blood lipid components were
unchanged. However, a significant negative correlation between the blood TG in the rest period
and the increase in blood TG on the first exercise day in the TC-Ex-period was observed.
Exercise with tea catechin was suggested to be more effective than exercise alone for
decreasing the short-term blood TG levels for those with high blood TG.departmental bulletin pape

Introduction to Heian-gikai Siryo(the Historical Materials of the Heian-gikai) and Ohkitsu-zaidan Siryo (the Historical Materials of the Ohkitsu-zaidan) for the Study of Kyoto-kanke-shizoku( Ⅱ)
The term Kyoto-kanke-shizoku refers to the low-level functionaries who served in the Imperial Court until 1869. They became
unemployed and impoverished as a result of the Meiji Restoration. The organizations Heian-gikai and Kyoto-Ohkitsu-zaidan were founded to
support them. Heian-gikai Siryo (the Historical Materials of the Heian-gikai) and Ohkitsu-zaidan Siryo (the Historical Materials of the
Ohkitsu-zaidan) are the materials handed down from generation to generation in these organizations. In 2016, these materials were donated
to the Kyoto Institute, Library and Archives. This text was written to introduce them for being used in the study on the Kyoto-kankeshizokudepartmental bulletin pape
Survey of the Freshmen in the Academic Year of 2018 on “Information Study”Provided by Two Liberal Arts Colleges in Tokyo
In this paper, we have carried out questionnaire survey to freshmen about the consciousness
of“ Information Study” during high school days since 2010. We have continued to carry out this
survey in the Academic Year of 2018 in the humanities departments in universities. As a result,
it turned out that the students who do not have good PC environment tend to feel they are bad
at PC skills twice as much as the students who have good PC environment. PC literacy and
fundamental knowledge about PC have not developed as the teachers expected. In addition,
according to the chi-square test relating to the presence/absence of PC, it was found out that
there is a connection between the consciousness toward the operation of PC and about a word
processor and spreadsheet, PowerPoint. But also it turned out that relevance is not seen at all.
The result showed that the fields of weakness are different among two universities.departmental bulletin pape
A Report on English E-learning Program
The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the learning effects of English e-learning.
We particularly focus on a consideration of e-learning contents and how students studying
English with e-learning have developed their English ability. In 2018, Komazawa Women's
University adopted two kinds of e-learning contents in some required English classes for the
first year students: Practical English 450 and TRACKER FOR THE TOEIC (R) L&R TEST;
both of which are developed by Reallyenglish Japan Co.,Ltd. Practical English 450 is a
computer based program which focuses on the improvement of the so-called “four skills in
English learning,” i.e. listening, speaking, reading, and writing. In addition, TRACKER FOR
THE TOEIC (R) L&R TEST was introduced to measure how students improve their English
skills through Practical English 450. As it is a TOEIC mock test, students can take it as if they
were taking the real TOEIC test.
This paper particularly outlines (i)an overview of the two e-learning contents, (ii)how
classes using the e-learning contents were organized,( iii)how students developed their English
skills through the e-learning contents. Furthermore, we would like to introduce some students
who have made distinguished achievements through the e-learning study.departmental bulletin pape
Palatability characteristics of traditional local cuisine “Kenoshiru” in Tsugaru district
In Japan, there are many traditional local cuisines that were produced by historical conditions
peculiar to the community. However, young Japanese are moving away from traditional local
cuisines because their life styles and eating habits are changing. The purpose of this study is to
make clear the palatability characteristics of kenoshiru by analyzing the results of sensibility
evaluation and sensory evaluation. 16 sensibility words were integrated into 3 dimensions using
principal component analysis, and named as affinity, identity and history, respectively. There
was no significant difference in kenoshiru-likeness score between the usual sample and 3 samples
which omitted soy product, konnyaku and burdock from the usual sample, respectively. On the
other hand, omitting Japanese radish had kenoshiru-likeness score decrease. A prospective
correlation was observed between kenoshiru-likeness score and likeability score. These suggests
that the most important ingredient is Japanese radish for kanoshiru, while soy product, burdock
and konnyaku, which have been used as indispensable ingredients, may be omissible.departmental bulletin pape
