On Effective Foreign Language Learning: Integrating Language Education with Language Science
The purpose of this research note is to explore how theoretical linguistics research findings can contribute to the improvement of practical English language education in Japanese universities by introducing recent research findings on ER, CLIL and ESP and discussing their respective approaches. With regard to ESP, we will further discuss how theoretical linguistics can contribute to the improvement of English language education in the medical and pharmaceutical fields, which require accurate and logical thinking skills.departmental bulletin pape

Impact of Catheter Ablation on Jugular Venous Pulse Descent Pattern in Atrial Fibrillation: Insights into Heart Failure Prognosis
Background: A dominant Y descent in the jugular venous pulse (JVP) is a marker of less right ventricular (RV)
distensibility and poor prognosis in heart failure (HF), and is frequently observed in atrial fibrillation (AF). Whether
catheter ablation (CA) can reverse this abnormal waveform remains unknown.
Methods: We conducted a single-center observational study of 166 patients who had undergone CA for AF. JVP
waveforms were assessed at baseline, within 48 h after CA, and during follow-up.
Results: Among 65 patients in AF at baseline, 64 (98 %) exhibited a dominant Y descent in JVP. Following CA,
47 (73 %) normalized immediately, with additional patients improving during follow-up. Persistence of dominant
Y descent in JVP was associated with longer AF duration and previous open-heart surgery. In 101 patients in sinus
rhythm at baseline, no significant waveform changes were observed.
Conclusions: AF-related impairment of RV distensibility is largely reversible with CA. This reversal may represent
an important physiological mechanism underlying CA-related improvement in HF outcomes. Further studies are
warranted to determine the prognostic value of JVP normalization.departmental bulletin pape
