Objective: The objective of present study was to estimate heritability of non-return rate (NRR) and success of first insemination (SFI) by using the Bayesian approach with Gibbs sampling. Methods: Heifer Traits were denoted as NRR-h and SFI-h, and cow traits as NRR-c and SFI-c. The variance covariance components were estimated using threshold model under Bayesian procedures THRGIBBS1F90. Results: The SFI was more relevant to evaluating success of insemination because a high percentage of animals that demonstrated no return did not successfully conceive in NRR. Estimated heritability of NRR and SFI in heifers were 0.032 and 0.039 and the corresponding estimates for cows were 0.020 and 0.027. The model showed low values of Geweke (p-value ranging between 0.012 and 0.018) and a low Monte Carlo chain error, indicating that the amount of a posteriori for the heritability estimate was valid for binary traits. Genetic correlation between the same traits among heifers and cows by using the two-trait threshold model were low, 0.485 and 0.591 for NRR and SFI, respectively. High genetic correlations were observed between NRR-h and SFI-h (0.922) and between NRR-c and SFI-c (0.954). Conclusion: SFI showed slightly higher heritability than NRR but the two traits are genetically correlated. Based on this result, both two could be used for early indicator for evaluate the capacity of cows to conceive.
"People First"の歷史と沖繩におけるIndependent Living Centerの實踐活動
田中敦士,韓昌完,新垣博志 우송대학교 2004 우송대학교 논문집 Vol.9 No.-
"People First" is part of the self-advocacy movement. The movement began in Sweden in 1968 when a Swedish parent's organization for children with developmental disabilities held a meeting. Today, People First and the self-advocacy movement has grown into an international movement in 43 countries, with an estimated 17,000 members or more. In this reports, we summarized the history of "People First" and introduced the activities of Independent Living Center in Okinawa.
Functional Status in Older Adults following Hospitalization for COVID-19: A Cohort Study
Pía Izaguirre,Érica Arakaki,Jorge Vogt Boero,Ángeles Zalazar,Mariano Ghirlanda,Diego Caruso 대한노인병학회 2023 Annals of geriatric medicine and research Vol.27 No.4
Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can cause multiple acute complications. This study evaluated the long-term functional status of older patients hospitalized for acute COVID-19. Methods: We analyzed data from a multicenter ambispective cohort study on patients aged >60 years who were hospitalized for COVID-19 at two tertiary care hospitals in Argentina. The participants were contacted by telephone between November 2021 and September 2022 to collect data on their functional status. Ordinal logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with functional limitations after discharge. Results: Among the 374 included patients, 205 (55%) showed functional limitations, including 58 (28%) who died during follow-up. The factors independently associated with functional limitations were low baseline functional status (odds ratio [OR]=9.19; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.35–25.17) and admission to the intensive care unit (OR=4.41; 95% CI, 2.28–8.53). Men had lower odds of functional impairment (OR=0.55; 95% CI, 0.35–0.86). Conclusion: Older patients had high mortality rates and poor functional status at 2 years post-discharge for COVID-19. Several factors at the time of discharge were associated with a higher risk of functional limitations and can be used to identify patients’ long-term needs for support and rehabilitation services.
Relation between body condition score and conception rate of Japanese Black cows
A. Setiaji,T. Oikawa,D. Arakaki Asian Australasian Association of Animal Productio 2023 Animal Bioscience Vol.36 No.8
Objective: This study analyzes interactions of body condition score (BCS) with other factors and the effect of BCS on estimates of genetic paremeters of conception rate (CR) in Japanese Black cows. Methods: Factors affecting CR were analyzed through the linear mixed model, and genetic parameters of CR were estimated through the threshold animal model. Results: The interactions between BCS and each season and the number of artificial inseminations (AI) was significant (p<0.05), but that between BCS and parity showed no significance for CR. High CR was observed with BCS 3 in autumn (0.56±0.01) and BCS 4 in summer (0.56±0.02). The highest CR with BCS 3 (0.56±0.02) and BCS 4 (0.55±0.01) was observed at first AI. With BCS 5, however, the highest CR (0.55±0.08) was observed at second AI. Conclusion: The model with BCS was notably conducive to the estimation of genetic parameters because of a low deviance information criterion of heritability that, nevertheless, was slightly lower than the model without BCS.

In the present study, total suspended particle (TSP) aerosols were simultaneously collected using identical high-volume air samplers at three islands in Okinawa; Cape Hedo Atmosphere and Aerosol Monitoring Station (CHAAMS, Okinawa Island), from 2008 to 2012 Kume Island (KM, ca. 160 km south-west of CHAAMS), and Minami-Daitou Island (MD, ca. 320 km south-east of CHAAMS) from 2008 to 2010. The sample collected were analyzed using energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (ED-XRF) and synchrotron radiation X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (SR-XRF) to investigation longrange transport of metal elements to Okinawa from the Asian continent. From analytical data on samples collected at CHAAMS for five years, it was found that most elements (Ca, Fe, Ti, Mn, V, Cu, Ni, Pb, As, and Zn) in TSP aerosols showed higher concentrations in the period from October to May, when the continental air mass passed over Okinawa, regardless of Asian dust events. The annual average concentrations of Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Se, and Pb in TSP aerosol samples collected at three islands gradually decreased as the TSP aerosols traveled from west to east in any year. Based on the enrichment factors (EFs) and concentration ratios, it is considered that most of anthropogenic elements such as As, Pb, and Zn in TSP aerosols are derived from coal combustion in the Asian continent. Moreover, it is confirmed from the direction of the air mass reaching the sampling sites that Cu, Zn, As, and Pb in TSP aerosols were transported to the three islands in Okinawa by air mass not only from northwest and north, but also from the west. These TSP aerosols transported from the Asian continent may influences not only the atmospheric environment but also the concentrations of trace metals in coastal seawater in Okinawa, which have to be kept extremely low to preserve the diverse and unique ecosystem in coral reefs.
