High-throughput deterministic plasma etching using array-type plasma generator system

Although this method has achieved nanometer-scale accuracy, the method requires considerable time to scan the work surface, leading to low productivity. Therefore, using an individual on-off controllable array-type plasma generator covering the entire work surface, enabling simultaneous NC plasma processing is proposed herein. A novel intermittent gas flow system was constructed using cyclic on-off control of the gas supply and exhaust valves instead of the commonly used continuous gas flow to achieve uniform in-plane plasma etching. It was found that uniform removal could be achieved by combining it with a pulse-modulated high-frequency power supply and setting the plasma generation time in one cycle to be sufficiently short. Furthermore, a power control approach was developed for maintaining a constant plasma state, even while varying the plasma-generating array elements, which resulted in a demonstration experiment of NC plasma etching that successfully reduced the thickness variation of a silicon substrate

A successful model of regional healthcare information exchange in Japan: Case Study in Kagawa Prefecture
No full textIn this study, we focused on analysis of healthcare data exchange over the network. For the advance of broadband capability development, many governments expect online medical information exchange between medical institutions. Japanese government also has tried to deploy ICT in the healthcare field. In Japan, many healthcare ICT projects started, but almost of all the projects face many issues and failed to continue. This situation caused us to clarify the success factor of healthcare information exchange network. For inspecting the success factors, we analyzed information access of healthcare systems in Kagawa prefecture of Japan. Kagawa prefecture is one of the most advance areas for healthcare information technology. We analyzed four medical ICT projects in Kagawa prefecture: K-MIX, Critical Pathway for Diabetes, E-prescription, and PHR. In addition, we inspected characteristics of exchanged data in the network, and stakeholder involved in these projects. This analysis lets us find various types of healthcare ICT projects. Characteristic of data processed in the projects caused differences of characteristic of the projects. On the other hand, multiple systems process same data, though the project does not share the data itself. Considering various types of medical information exchanges projects, we propose classification and standard format of exchanged data according to their characteristic are critical for efficient business deployment. --e-Health,regional healthcare information exchange,EHR

Comparative analysis of the pathogenicity between multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates: isolation of highly pathogenic multidrug-resistant A. baumannii and experimental therapeutics with fourth-generation cephalosporin cefozopran
No full textSatoshi Nishida, Yasuo Ono Department of Microbiology and Immunology, Teikyo University School of Medicine, Itabashi, Tokyo, Japan Introduction: The pathogenicity of fatal-outbreak Acinetobacter baumannii isolates has not been fully investigated. This study aimed to compare the pathogenicity between A. baumannii clinical isolates, including multidrug-resistant A. baumannii (MDRA).Materials and methods: Antibiotic susceptibility was determined by the broth microdilution method, and drug-resistant genes were characterized by PCR and sequencing. The pathogenicity of A. baumannii and antibiotic responses were evaluated using the Galleria mellonella infection model. Clinical isolates from an A. baumannii outbreak at our hospital were categorized using the pulse-field gel electrophoresis. Of the 16 isolated A. baumannii clones, 12 clones were resistant to carbapenems (meropenem and imipenem), of which 10 clones were also resistant to amikacin and ciprofloxacin (MDRAs). MDRAs had OXA-51-like β-lactamase gene harboring an insertion sequence in the promoter region and armA gene encoding 16S rRNA methyltransferase.Results: Carbapenem- and/or amikacin-resistant A. baumannii were more pathogenic than carbapenem- and/or amikacin-sensitive A. baumannii in G. mellonella. MDRA isolate TK1033 was more virulent than other A. baumannii isolates. However, TK1033 was sensitive to the fourth-generation cephalosporin cefozopran in addition to minocycline, tigecycline, and polymyxins (colistin and polymyxins B) in vitro and in vivo in the MDRA-G. mellonella infection model.Conclusion: Differences in pathogenicity among carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii clones are consistent with heterogeneous clinical outcomes. Strain TK1033, isolated frequently during the outbreak, was the most virulent, whereas preoutbreak isolate TK1032 was less virulent than other A. baumannii isolates. Infection by high-virulence isolates may be more prevalent during outbreaks. These strains may prove valuable for investigating MDRA virulence and novel therapeutics.
