    No full text
    Light novel adalah salah satu karya sastra berupa novel yang dibuat lebih menarik dengan target pembaca para remaja. Light novel Hyouka menceritakan kehidupan SMA Oreki Houtarou di SMA Kamiyama. Penelitian ini berfokus pada analisis tokoh Oreki Houtarou dan juga hubungan dengan tokoh-tokoh lainnya di dalam light novel Hyouka. Objek penelitian adalah light novel Hyouka jilid pertama dengan judul yang sama, Hyouka. Teori yang digunakan penelitian ini adalah teori struktural. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode analisis struktural dengan metode kualitatif dan disajikan secara deskriptif. Dari penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa Oreki Houtarou adalah tokoh utama dari light novel Hyouka. Oreki Houtarou adalah orang yang memiliki sikap ‘menyimpan energi’ dan tidak mau berbeli-belit. Tokoh Oreki mengalami perubahan sikap yang signifikan menjadi tokoh bulat setelah bertemu dengan Chitanda Eru. Perubahan sikapnya semakin berkembang ketika klub sastra klasik yang ia masuki memiliki anggota lainnya yang merupakan teman masa kecil Oreki Houtarou yaitu Fukube Satoshi dan Ibara Mayaka yang membantunya memecahkan misteri di sekolah Kamiyama. Sehingga tokoh Oreki Houtarou dapat diklasifikasikan sebagai tokoh bulat. Berdasarkan perkembangan wataknya, Oreki dikategorikan sebagai tokoh berkembang dengan sikapnya yang dari hanya menampilkan kehidupan yang abuabu berubah menjadi tokoh yang sangat penting di dalam cerita. Berdasarkan penampilan fungsi, Oreki dikategorikan sebagai tokoh antagonis dengan memilih menjalani kehidupan berwarna abu-abu dibandingkan dengan kehidupan sekolah biasanya yang berwarna mawar. Berdasarkan cerminan tokoh dengan dunia nyata, keseluruhan cerita dan sudut pandang yang dipakai merupakan pandangan Oreki dan semua kejadian yang ada dalam keseluruhan cerita berdasarkan pada kejadian yang Oreki alami sehingga dapat dikategorikan sebagai tokoh netral

    As the effects of supplementary oxygen on urinary excretion of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) are poorly understood, urinary 8-OHdG levels (ng/mg creatinine) were determined longitudinally on the postnatal day (PND) 1, 3, and 30 in 16 neonates with birth weight 750 g (41.0 +/- 6.9 vs. 5.6 +/- 2.7, respectively, P = 0.0200). Median urinary 8-OHdG on PND 1 of these 9 neonates was significantly lower than that of 7 neonates with oxygen (9.3 vs. 60.2, respectively), although there were no significant differences in clinical background, such as birth weight, between the two groups. Five of the 9 did not require supplemental oxygen at all during the first 30 days of life. Median urinary 8-OHdG levels were consistently significantly lower in the 5 neonates than in 11 neonates with oxygen transiently or persistently (9.3 vs. 54.6, 19.1 vs. 61.4, and 28.3 vs. 145 on PND 1, 3, and 30, respectively), although there were no differences in clinical background, such as birth weight, between the two groups. Urinary 8-OHdG on PND 30 was significantly positively correlated with supplemental oxygen dose on PND 30 (P < 0.0001), but not with birth weight in the 16 neonates. These results suggest that higher supplemental oxygen tension caused higher urinary 8-OHdG in this population

    Effects of infant flow Bi-NCPAP on apnea of prematurity

    Background: Infant flow biphasic nasal continuous positive airway pressure (Bi-NCPAP) and regular NCPAP (Re-NCPAP) are equally useful with respect to the rate of successful weaning from mechanical ventilation. It remains unclear, however, whether Bi-NCPAP or Re-NCPAP is more effective for reducing apnea of prematurity (AOP). Methods: A multicenter randomized controlled study was conducted of 66 infants assigned to receive Bi-NCPAP and 66 assigned to receive Re-NCPAP for respiratory support after extubation. Primary outcome was the number of AOP events during the 48 h observation period after successful extubation, defined as no reintubation and no adverse events associated with the use of NCPAP during the observation period. The secondary outcome was successful extubation. Reintubation was at the discretion of the attending physician. Results: Baseline characteristics were similar between the two groups. The number of AOP events during the 48 h observation period was significantly lower in infants with Bi-NCPAP than in those with Re-NCPAP (5.2 ± 6.5 vs 10.3 ± 10.9 per infant, respectively; P = 0.002). The rate of successful extubation tended to be greater in those with Bi-NCPAP than in those with Re-NCPAP (92.4%, 61/66 vs 80.3%, 53/66, respectively; P = 0.074). Adverse events occurred in only one of 132 infants: erosive dermatitis developed on the nose after application of Re-NCPAP. The risk of reintubation did not differ significantly between the two groups (7.6%, 5/66 for Bi-NCPAP vs 18.2%, 12/66 for Re-NCPAP; P = 0.117). Conclusions: Bi-NCPAP was superior to Re-NCPAP for reduction of AOP following extubation

    Genus theory, governing field, ramification and Frobenius

    No full text
    In this work we develop, through a governing field, genus theory for a number field \K with tame ramification in TT and splitting in SS, where TT and SS are finite disjoint sets of primes of \K. This approach extends that initiated by the second author in the case of the class group. It allows expressing the SS-TT genus number of a cyclic extension \L/\K of degree pp in terms of the rank of a matrix constructed from the Frobenius elements of the primes ramified in \L/\K, in the Galois group of the underlying governing extension. For quadratic extensions \L/\Q, the matrices in question are constructed from the Legendre symbols between the primes ramified in \L/\Q and the primes in SS
