Despite the frequent controversies in sport, little research has been conducted to understand sport consumers' emotional, cognitive, and behavioral reactions to athlete scandals. Drawing from attribution and expectancy–violation theories, this study examines the effects of athlete scandals on emotion (i.e. anger), cognition (i.e. perceived responsibility), and behavioral intention (i.e. negative word-of-mouth; NWOM). The results of an experiment showed that selected characteristics of athlete scandals (i.e. intentionality and performance relatedness) influence NWOM via perceived responsibility. The impact of perceived responsibility that is associated with NWOM intention was critical, while that associated with anger was much less crucial. This study contributes to the existing body of literature in the context of athlete scandals. When minimizing the negative impact is the main concern, managers must contemplate the effects of performance relatedness and intentionality of athlete scandals, and effectively communicate with spectators to reduce the perceived responsibility.
Asia-Only vs. Asia-Pacific Regionalism: The Regionalism Cycle in Summits and Financial Cooperation
Shintaro Hamanaka 인하대학교 국제관계연구소 2011 Pacific Focus Vol.26 No.2
While many believe that Asian regionalism lacks institutions, Asia, in fact, is home to a wide range of regional institutions and frameworks. The rise and fall of regional institutions in Asia is an extremely dynamic process. This paper argues that the dynamic nature of Asian regionalism can be explained by a "regionalism cycle" with regard to membership. The institutional outcomes of regionalism in Asia have been cyclical because the interplay between Japan and the United States has not had a stable equilibrium. This paper tests the hypothesized regionalism cycle based using actual cases of regional institutions in the areas of financial cooperation and summit meetings.
What is Subregionalism? Analytical Framework and Two Case Studies from Asia
Shintaro Hamanaka 인하대학교 국제관계연구소 2015 Pacific Focus Vol.30 No.3
When scholars and policy-makers use the term subregionalism or subregional cooperation rather than regionalism or regional cooperation, they seem to emphasize certain elements of cooperation that tend to be overlooked or neglected by regional cooperation. What are they? This study first discusses the elements that make cooperation or a project subregional rather than regional. Then the article conducts a comparative case study analysis of subregionalism using the proposed framework to assess how much an actual project is “subregional.” This article covers two case studies: the South Asia Subregional Economic Cooperation program and the Greater Tumen Initiative.
Role of A-Kinase Anchoring Protein 12 in the Central Nervous System
Shintaro Kimura,Josephine Lok,Irwin H. Gelman,Eng H. Lo,Ken Arai 대한신경과학회 2023 Journal of Clinical Neurology Vol.19 No.4
A-kinase anchoring protein (AKAP) 12 is a scaffolding protein that anchors various signaling proteins to the plasma membrane. These signaling proteins include protein kinase A, protein kinase C, protein phosphatase 2B, Src-family kinases, cyclins, and calmodulin, which regulate their respective signaling pathways. AKAP12 expression is observed in the neurons, astrocytes, endothelial cells, pericytes, and oligodendrocytes of the central nervous system (CNS). Its physiological roles include promoting the development of the blood–brain barrier, maintaining white-matter homeostasis, and even regulating complex cognitive functions such as long-term memory formation. Under pathological conditions, dysregulation of AKAP12 expression levels may be involved in the pathology of neurological diseases such as ischemic brain injury and Alzheimer’s disease. This minireview aimed to summarize the current literature on the role of AKAP12 in the CNS.

Stress applied to rats is known to result in a quick decrease in blood fluidity. Although electrical acupuncture stimulation (ACU) attenuates stress responses,the influence of ACU on blood fluidity has not been well examined. In the present study, the effect of ACU on blood fluidity and platelet adhesion was examined using a Micro Channel Array Flow Analyzer and a laser scattering platelet aggregometer (PA-20), respectively. Male Wistar rats (7−8 weeks old) were used. ACU (1 Hz, 3−5 V),which causes slight muscle twitching, was applied to acupoints for 60 minutes/day once or on 2 consecutive days. Stimulated acupoints were as follows: ZuSanli (ST-36), Sanyinjiao (SP-6), Hegu (L-I4), Neiguan (P-6), and Shenshu (BL-23). ACU applied to ST-36, SP-6, and L-14 revealed significant increases in blood fluidity while platelet adhesion activity decreased. No significant changes were observed when ACU was applied to P-6 and BL-23. Results indicate that ACU affects blood fluidity depending on the acupoints. Blood fluidity changed with ACU within 1 day. In other words, the effect of acupuncture has an immediate effect. In addition, platelet aggregation decreased with ACU, suggesting that an increase in blood fluidity is associated with platelet aggregation ability.
The interpretation of Shahid in Patani
Shintaro Hara Institute for International Trade and Cooperation, 2019 Asian International Studies Review Vol.20 No.1
The southern borderland provinces of Thailand is the official Thai name for a region which local people there passionately refer to as Patani. Since the eruption of the latest wave of violence in this region in 2004, approximately 7000 people have been killed, and many of them are the local people. Because of the violent history of the region, insurgents have referred to their struggle as a sacred war (jihad). There has also been discussion among insurgents about how to interpret and justify the concept of martyr (shahid). Rather than interpreting Thailand’s Deep South conflict itself, this article focuses upon how local Malay-Muslims in Patani interpret shahid deaths as “authorized” in Patani society and by whom or which organisation, and how the local society perceives it, by mainly resorting to in-depth, semi-structured interviews of the local Malay Muslim people in Patani.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the significance of the membranous urethral length (MUL), including the thickness of the urethral sphincter, for recovery from postoperative stress urinary incontinence (SUI) following holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP).Methods: We analyzed 78 patients who underwent HoLEP between June 2013 and September 2018, all of whom preoperatively received magnetic resonance imaging. MUL was measured using sagittal T2-weighted fast spin-echo images. The clinical and anatomical factors associated with MUL were evaluated. The recovery time of urinary incontinence was compared between patients with a long MUL (≥14 mm) and a short MUL (<14 mm). SUI included both stress and mixed urinary incontinence. Continence was defined as complete dryness.Results: The median MUL in patients without incontinence at 1 month postoperatively was significantly longer than the MUL in patients with incontinence (15.3 mm vs. 12.7 mm, P<0.001). The continence rates at 1 month after HoLEP in patients with longer MULs and shorter MULs were 80.4% and 30.0%, respectively. The recovery time of urinary incontinence in patients with longer MULs (≥14 mm) was significantly shorter than that in patients with shorter MULs (<14 mm) (log-rank test, P=0.001). After 6 months, the continence rates in patients with longer MULs and shorter MULs were similar (97%). MUL was significantly correlated with the recovery period of urinary incontinence (r=-0.459, P<0.001).Conclusions: MUL was useful for predicting early recovery from urinary incontinence following HoLEP. This study provides evidence that postoperative urinary incontinence following a transurethral procedure for benign prostatic hyperplasia was associated with anatomical factors. A long MUL was associated with better tolerance to urinary sphincter damage by the transurethral procedure.
Fitting CAD data to scanned data with large deformation
Shintaro Suzuki,Yutaka Ohtake,Hiromasa Suzuki 한국CDE학회 2020 Journal of computational design and engineering Vol.7 No.2
Recently, largely deformed simulation models, such as car crash simulations, have been in high demand. To evaluate such models, it is necessary to use actual deformation results to compare and validate them. When measuring actual deformed objects, an X-ray CT is useful because it is non-destructive. However, matching undeformed CAD data and scanned deformation data is difficult. We propose a system for users to set control points or control lines on feature points and predict deformation using affine transformation with the moving least squares method. In the proposed method, undesirable distortions are reduced by evaluating scaling using singular value index and introducing offset control points. The deformed CAD data are obtained by matching predicted CAD data and a polygon mesh generated by deformed CT data. In addition, the surface elements of the generated deformed CAD data are evaluated for CAE.
