Effects and interaction of different interior material treatment and personal preference on psychological and physiological responses in living environment

Journal of Wood Science, 2020
Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) wood is widely used as a traditional construction material in Japan. The relationship between an individual’s perceived comfort level and a preference for Japanese cedar wood interiors is of interest.

Exposure to Japanese Cedar Pollen in Early Life and Subsequent Sensitization to Japanese Cedar Pollen.

Journal of Epidemiology, 2000
The effect of exposure to Japanese cedar pollen (JCP) in early life on subsequent sensitization to it was evaluated. Specific IgE antibody to JCP was examined in 440-504 school children in a rural town each year during 1995-98. The amount of dispersed pollen measured by a Durham sampler widely ranged from 165 to 5941 grains/cm2/year during this period.

Relationship among airborne pollen, sensitization, and pollen food allergy syndrome in Asian allergic children [PDF]

PeerJ, 2022
Background Causes of pediatric pollen food allergy syndrome (PFAS) differ depending on airborne pollen levels in a particular region. We aimed to analyze airborne pollen counts, IgE sensitization rates, and PFAS incidence among children with allergies in

Rapid survey of de novo mutations in naturally growing tree species following the March 2011 disaster in Fukushima: The effect of low-dose-rate radiation

Environment International, 2023
The impact of low-dose-rate radiation on genetics is largely unknown, particularly in natural environments. The Fukushima Dai-ich Nuclear Power Plant disaster resulted in the creation of contaminated natural lands. In this study, de novo mutations (DNMs)

Japanese cedar pollinosis and HLA‐DP5

Tissue Antigens, 1996
Japanese cedar pollinosis is a type I allergic disease caused by Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) pollen. We investigated the association between the disease and HLA class II alleles by HLA‐DNA typing using a PCR‐SSOP method and found that the frequency of HLA‐DP5 (DPA1*02022 and DPB1*0501) was significantly increased in the patients.
