No full textDESCRIPTION OF LACTOBACILLUS SUANTSAII SP. NOV. Lactobacillus suantsaii (suan.tsai′ i. N.L. neut. n. suantsaium suan-tsai, the name of a traditional fermented mustard green product in Taiwan; N.L. gen. n. suantsaii of suan-tsai, from which the type strain was isolated). Cells are Gram-stain-positive, catalase and oxidase negative, rod-shaped (0.5--0.6×1.1--7.5 µm), and facultatively anaerobic. Colonies are approximately 2 mm in diameter, with a smooth to rough surface, circular to slightly irregular after 2 days at 37 Ǫ C on MRS agar plates. Homofermentative; no gas is produced from glucose. Both L- (65 %) and D- lactate (35 %) are produced as end products from glucose. In MRS broth, growth occurs at 10--37 Ǫ C, but not at 45 Ǫ C. Growth occurs at pH 4.0--7.0, but no growth at pH 8.0. Growth occurs in the presence of 1.0–2.0 % (w/v) NaCl, but not in the presence of 9 % (w/v) NaCl. Ammonia is not produced from arginine. Nitrate is not reduced. Indole, H 2 S and urease are not produced. Acetoin is produced. Gelatin and aesculin are not hydrolysed. Acid is produced from L- arabinose, D- galactose, D- glucose, D- fructose, N -acetylglucosamine, maltose and gluconate.

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

Packing hard spheres with short-range attraction in infinite dimension: phase structure and algorithmic implications
No full textWe study, via the replica method of disordered systems, the packing problem of hard-spheres with a square-well attractive potential when the space dimensionality, d, becomes infinitely large. The phase diagram of the system exhibits reentrancy of the liquid-glass transition line, two distinct glass states and a glass-to-glass transition, much similar to what has been previously obtained by Mode-Coupling Theory, numerical simulations and experiments. The presence of the phase reentrance implies that for a suitable choice of the intensity and attraction range, high-density sphere packings more compact than the one corresponding to pure hard-spheres can be constructed in polynomial time in the number of particles (at fixed, large d) for packing fractions ≤ 6.5d2−d. Although our derivation is not a formal mathematical proof, we believe it meets the standards of rigor of theoretical physics, and at this level of rigor it provides a small improvement of the lower bound on the sphere packing proble

Possible risk factors reported for renal cell carcinoma were as follows: 1) Work in petroleum-related and dry-cleaning industries were positive risk. A predominant lifetime occupation as a professional was negative risk. 2) Milk or coffee consumption and use of artificial sweeteners were positive. Drinking of alcohol was negative. 3) Obesity was positive. 4) Personal history of cancer was positive. 5) Cigarette smoking was positive. 6) Exposure to radiation or hydrocarbon was positive. 7) Use of estrogen, diuretic and pain relievers was positive. 8) History of myocardial infarction, hypertension and diabetes mellitus was positive
