Shusaku Endo and Setagaya(1)
No full textThis paper is the first part of a serial work on the biographical details of Shusaku Endo （1923-1996） whose complete diaries （Endo Shusaku Zen-Nikki, in 2 volumes） were published in 2018. The author focuses on the time Endo spent in Setagaya, Tokyo, where he resided for more than 10 years between 1942 and 1958, except for some intervals away from the place. The author discusses the relationship between the novelist and Setagaya.
The author delves into Endo’s essays, fictions, recollections by his wife, writings by his teachers and other contemporaries, and looks at the social background to Endo’s life such as transportation route maps, and tries to understand what motivated the author to become a writer for life during his days in Setagaya.
The first two sections on “The sense of shame and guilt toward his mother“ and “An encounter with Saku Sato” suggest that Endo flew from the pressure he felt from his Christian mother and moved from Kansai to Setagaya where his divorced father lived. There, by chance, he got a book Outline of French Literature （Furansu Bungaku Sobyo, 1940） by Saku Sato, who became his mentor. The author concludes that, thanks in part to encounters with Saku Sato and other literary friends, this period in Setagaya was instrumental in Endo’s formation. （To be continued.）departmental bulletin pape
Effect of Glucose on Endo-xylanase and β-xylosidase Production by Fungi Isolated in Indonesia
No full textXylanases are widely produced by fungi, and the production of polysaccharide-degrading enzymes, in general, are usually subjected to carbon catabolite repression. In this work, the ability of several Indonesian indigenous fungi to produce endo-xylanase and β-xylosidase and their responses to glucose as a repressor were determined. Ten fungi were grown in a liquid medium supplemented with glucose as the repressor (0, 1%, 3%, and 5%), and the endo-xylanase and β-xylosidase productions were assayed. Aspergillus aculeatus FIG1 and A. oryzae KKB4 produced 3.85 and 0.70 U/mL of endoxylanase, respectively, compared with other strains (0.22 U/mL or less). Trichoderma asperellum PK1J2, T. virens MLT 2J2, A. aculeatus FIG1, T. asperellum MLT5J1, A. oryzae KKB4, and T. asperellum MLT3J2 produced 0.021-0.065 U/mL of β-xylosidase, whereas the other strains produced 0.013 U/mL or less of β-xylosidase. Adding 1% glucose to the growth medium can partially repress endo-xylanase production in A. aculeatus FIG1, T. asperellum PK1J2, and T. virens MLT4J1 and completely repress other strains. By adding 1% glucose, strains FIG1, PK1J2, and MLT4J1 suffered almost complete repression of β-xylosidase production, although such strains exhibited partial repression of endo-xylanase production. β-Xylosidase produced by the other strains showed complete repression by adding 1% glucose, except for A. aculeatus FIG1, A. tamarii FNCC 6151, and T. asperellum MLT1J1, which showed partial repression. Therefore, adding 3% glucose to the growth medium can result in complete repression of endo-xylanase and β-xylosidase productions in all strains examined. © The Author(s) 2022
A novel diagnostic tool to identify atrial endo-epicardial asynchrony using signal fingerprinting
No full textObjective: Patients with persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) have more electrical endo-epicardial asynchrony (EEA) during sinus rhythm (SR) than patients without AF. Prior mapping studies indicated that particularly unipolar, endo- and/or epicardial electrogram (EGM) morphology may be indicators of EEA. This study aim to develop a novel method for estimating the degree of EEA by using unipolar EGM characteristics recorded from either the endo- and/or epicardium. Methods: Simultaneous endo-epicardial mapping during sinus rhythm was performed in 86 patients. EGM characteristics, including unipolar voltages, low-voltage areas (LVAs), potential types (single, short/long double and fractionated potentials: SP, SDP, LDP and FP) and fractionation duration (FD) of double potentials (DP) and FP were compared between EEA and non-EEA areas. Asynchrony Fingerprinting Scores (AFS) containing quantified EGM characteristics were constructed to estimate the degree of EEA. Results: Endo- and epicardial sites of EEA areas are characterized by lower unipolar voltages, a higher number of LDPs and FPs and longer DP and FP durations. Patients with AF have lower potential voltages in EEA areas, along with alterations in the potential types. The EE-AFS, containing the proportion of endocardial LVAs and FD of epicardial DPs, had the highest predictive value for determining the degree of EEA (AUC: 0.913). Endo- and epi-AFS separately also showed good predictive values (AUC: 0.901 and 0.830 respectively). Conclusions: EGM characteristics can be used to identify EEA areas. AFS can be utilized as a novel diagnostic tool for accurately estimating the degree of EEA. These characteristics potentially indicate AF related arrhythmogenic substrates.Signal Processing System

Endo/Exo
No full textThe artist, Delaney Shae Rogers, discusses her Master of Fine Arts exhibition, Endo / Exo, held at the Tipton Gallery in downtown Johnson City, TN. The exhibition dates are from March 25th through April 5th, 2024, with a public reception held April 5th, 2024. The author provides insight into the concept behind the work in the exhibition and shares how the making process and specific materials impact the work. This body of work explores coping with grief, anxiety, and the state of the world through the process of making and communicating otherwise difficult topics through visually digestible symbolic language
