Risk of injury associated with the sedative potential of second‐generation antihistamines: A nationwide retrospective cohort study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Individual second‐generation antihistamines may possess differential sedative potential due to the variability in central histamine receptor H1 occupancy. This study aimed to evaluate whether the sedative potential of second‐generation antihistamines is associated with the risk of injury during Japan's pollen season. Methods We conducted a

Omalizumab is Effective and Safe in the Treatment of Japanese Cedar Pollen-induced Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis

Allergology International, 2006
Background: Seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR) induced by Japanese cedar pollen is a substantial problem in Japan. Omalizumab, a novel humanized monoclonal anti-immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibody, has already been proven to reduce symptoms associated with SAR.

Fish assemblages associated with three types of artificial reefs: density of assemblages and possible impacts on adjacent fish abundance [PDF]

, 2010
We evaluated the effectiveness of wooden artificial reefs (ARs) as fish habitat. Three types of ARs, made of cedar logs, broadleaf tree logs, and PVC pipes, respectively, were deployed in triplicate at 8-m depth off Maizuru, Kyoto Prefecture, Sea of ...

Enhanced Mass Transport and Elevated Active Site Density for Highly Efficient Overall Water Splitting Over Delignification‐Engineered Carbonized Wood

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Controlled delignification pretreatment tailors the hierarchical porous structure of wood to improve ion transport and create abundant anchoring sites for Ni/Ni(OH)2 catalysts. The optimized electrode shows enhanced mass transfer, increased active site density, and superior overall water‐splitting performance, demonstrating delignification as an ...

Delignification of softwood by glycerol from biodiesel by-product I: model reaction using glycerol and fatty acid sodium soap mixture for pretreatment on bioethanol production

Journal of Wood Science, 2019
This study investigated the use of glycerol–fatty acid sodium soap mixtures to delignify woody biomass as a model for utilization of crude glycerol by-product from biodiesel manufacture. Lignin-bearing glycerol was also produced.

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Cedar Façade Flame Spread With Respect to Sidewall

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In response to growing energy conservation and carbon neutrality efforts, façade systems incorporating wooden materials have attracted increasing attention, which in turn raises concerns about their combustibility. This study presents a combined experimental and numerical investigation of flame spread along cedar façades.

Measurement of Japanese Cedar Pollen-Specific IgE in Nasal Secretions

Allergology International, 2014
Background: : Japanese cedar pollen (JCP) is the most common allergen for seasonal allergic rhinitis in Japan. Little is known about local production of immunoglobulin (Ig)E in people with or without Japanese cedar pollinosis. The aims of this study were

CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS ON JAPANESE CEDAR POLLINOSIS

Nippon Jibiinkoka Gakkai Kaiho, 1965
The existence of pollinosis in Japan has been often presumed from various points of view, but very few reports on pollinosis whose allergen is known are found so far. In 1963, in the district of Nikko and its neighbourhood, the authors hap- pened to meet 21 cases with allergic symptoms in nasal cavity, pharynx and conjunctiva, which often appear only ...

The We‐Relationship as a Key to Addressing Dementia‐Related Ambiguous Loss

Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pauline Boss describes the challenges faced by people caring for family members with dementia in terms of ambiguous loss – a condition in which the physical presence of the person with dementia coexists with their psychological absence. This article proposes the concept of we‐relationship as a key to addressing dementia‐related ambiguous loss.
