概要:
Two field trials were conducted in Northern Thailand from 2018 to 2020 to determine the best manual harvesting method fo
…
r maximizing seed yield and seed quality of two Urochloa ruziziensis cultivars, cv. OKI-1 and cv. Br-203. Four manual seed harvesting methods were implicated in a randomized complete block design with four replicates. The four methods were as follows: knocking seeds from seedheads into a nylon net receptacle and collecting them once every day (T1); knocking seeds from seedheads into a nylon net receptacle and collecting them once every three days (T2); allowing ripe seeds to fall into a nylon net sheet that was stretched as a receptacle beneath the seedheads and collecting seeds once every five days (T3); and covering the tied seedheads with a nylon net bag and collecting seeds once every five days (T4). The highest pure seed yield was obtained from T3 in cv. Br-203 (333.11 kg/ha), as well as the highest trend in cv. OKI-1 (534.67 kg/ha). T3 produced 22–46% and 11–27% more pure germinated seed yields than the other methods in cv. Br-203 and cv. OKI-1, respectively. As a result, T3 was recommended for higher seed yield, convenient seed harvest, and reduced manual seed harvest time.

概要:
This study evaluates land use transformation in Kandahar’s old city, also known as Ahmad Shahi city, the birthplace and
…
first capital of modern Afghanistan. The city consists of four rectangular quarters and is surrounded by a high strong mud wall, entrance gates, and a moat. In the early 20th century, the city experienced significant and arbitrary expansion, which certainly affected the urban fabric of the area, the streets were widened, and the city wall, towers, and gates were demolished, and the area was added to the construction of new government buildings, commercial establishments, and residential plots. This study aims to evaluate the alterations in the old city’s urban morphology, culture, and sociology by conducting a comparative analysis of three maps from different time periods and considering various factors within the target area.

概要:
As one of the most-known wreck dive destinations in the world, diving tourism at the USAT Liberty site in Tulamben, Bali, has been developing for more than forty years. However, this niche island tourism is facing other problems besides the
…
deteriorating condition of the shipwreck. Some examples include emerging conflicts of interest between stakeholders and the local community's economic dependency on diving tourism. Using the scuba diving tourism system framework, this article aims to understand wreck-diving tourism management in Tulamben, focusing on involved key stakeholders by examining their positions, roles, and contributions to socio-cultural, socio-economic, and environmental sustainability. This study uses social network analysis to examine the dynamics of actor relations in depth. Data were collected through field observation, interviews, and questionnaire surveys in 2019, 2020, and 2022. The results show that involved stakeholders in the management of wreck diving at the USAT Liberty site consist of local people, the traditional village, local government bodies, business owners (both native Balinese and outsiders), and divers, who were predominately foreigners. The study also revealed the high dependency of locals on diving tourism, causing them to experience economic difficulties when wreck diving stopped due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to that, the lack of transparency regarding the number of tourists and the profits from ticket sales made it difficult to develop facilities and attractions. This study argues that community-based tourism management needs to be maintained to ensure that the local community remains the main actor. However, this practice needs to be continuously evaluated internally and externally to overcome various problems that currently exist.

概要:
Over the last century, the mermaid—a figure that represents aspects of what has been termed the ‘aquapelagic imaginary’
…
of maritime and waterside societies—has become increasingly widespread in international popular culture. Along with its appearance in cinema and television, it has been used to promote various products, including, most notably, Starbucks coffee. This has also been the case in Japan, where Hans Christian Andersen’s short story “The Little Mermaid” is well known and where the mermaid has been significantly localised through being featured in manga and anime productions. This article profiles one of the most persistent uses of the mermaid in Japanese popular culture to date: the logo used to symbolise and promote the Little Mermaid bakery chain. The logo is discussed with reference to the Danish association of the chain’s bakery products and its use is contrasted to aspects of the Starbucks coffeehouse symbol. The particular socio-cultural and industrial nexus that the logo emerged from is explored through discussion of the history of the Andersen group of companies. This aspect, in turn, has deeper roots in the particular attention paid to Denmark as a model for Japanese modernisation in two periods (the 1910s-20s and the late 1940s-50s), and this aspect serves to contextualise the nature and life of the logo. The recontextualisation of the Little Mermaid in Japan is also notable for minimising its aquapelagic aspect and, instead, packaging it in very precise manners for domestic consumption. In this context, the mermaid is effectively the “tip of the iceberg” of a greater, more far-reaching, imaginative, and transformative engagement with a European exotic “other.” The article contributes to an expansion of Island Studies by documenting the manner in which the symbol of one archipelagic/aquapelagic culture is transformed into a more terrestrialised commercial brand in a different island nation.

概要:
We provide explicit expressions for two types of first order q-difference systems for the Jackson integral of symmetric Selberg type. One is the q- difference system known to be the q-KZ equation and the other is the
…
q-difference system for parameters different from the q-KZ equation. We use a basis of the systems introduced by Matsuo in his study of the q-KZ equation. As a result, the similarity of these two systems is discussed by concrete calculations. Interme- diate calculations are made use of the Riemann-Hilbelt method for q-difference equation from connection matrix established by Aomoto.

概要:
Phytoplanktonic dinoflagellates form colonies between vertical ice crystals during the icemelting season in Lake Baikal, but how the plankton survive the freezing conditions is not known. Here we show that the phytoplankton produces
…
large amounts of dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP), which is best-known as a marine compound. Lake-water DMSP concentrations in the spring season are comparable with those in the oceans, and colony water in ice exhibits extremely high concentrations. DMSP concentration of surface water correlates with plankton density and reaches a maximum in mid-April, with temperature-dependent fluctuations. DMSP is released from plankton cells into water in warm days. DMSP is a characteristic osmolyte of marine algae; our results demonstrate that freshwater plankton, Gymnodinium baicalense, has DMSP-producing ability, and efficiently uses the limited sulfur resource (only 1/500 of sea sulfate) to survive in freshwater ice. Plankton in Lake Baikal do not need an osmolyte, and our results clearly indicate that DMSP plays a cryoprotective role. DMSP, although a characteristic marine compound, could also be an important zwitterion for algae of other boreal lakes, alpine snow, and glaciers.

概要:
Background: Root system architecture is an important trait affecting the uptake of nutrients and water by crops. Shallower root systems preferentially take up nutrients from the topsoil and help avoid unfavorable environments in deeper
…
soil layers. We have found a soil-surface rooting mutant from an M2 population that was regenerated from seed calli of a japonica rice cultivar, Nipponbare. In this study, we examined the genetic and physiological characteristics of this mutant. Results: The primary roots of the mutant showed no gravitropic response from the seedling stage on, whereas the gravitropic response of the shoots was normal. Segregation analyses by using an F2 population derived from a cross between the soil-surface rooting mutant and wild-type Nipponbare indicated that the trait was controlled by a single recessive gene, designated as sor1. Fine mapping by using an F2 population derived from a cross between the mutant and an indica rice cultivar, Kasalath, revealed that sor1 was located within a 136-kb region between the simple sequence repeat markers RM16254 and 2935-6 on the terminal region of the short arm of chromosome 4, where 13 putative open reading frames (ORFs) were found. We sequenced these ORFs and detected a 33-bp deletion in one of them, Os04g0101800. Transgenic plants of the mutant transformed with the genomic fragment carrying the Os04g0101800 sequence from Nipponbare showed normal gravitropic responses and no soil-surface rooting. Conclusion: These results suggest that sor1, a rice mutant causing soil-surface rooting and altered root gravitropic response, is allelic to Os04g0101800, and that a 33-bp deletion in the coding region of this gene causes the mutant phenotypes.

Of these species, M. stalagmites was recorded for the first time in the 135 years since it was originally described. The species richness of the Montipora of Minami-Daito Island is very low when compared to other islands of the Ryukyu Archipelago. This is presumably because of the severe habitat environment of this oceanic island which has a steeply sloping bathymetry, little reef development, and extremely high wave energy.

traditional stoves with solid fuels such as charcoal and wood in wintertime. The aim of the thesis is to seek possibilities of a grid-connected solar photovoltaic (PV) system for Mongolian houses/Gers so as to improve the access to electricity and reduce greenhouse gases simultaneously. Solar PV system is considered as ease of installation, less maintenance and the absence of rotation. Moreover, utilizing the proposed system provides the residents much more opportunities such as self-usage and trading the surplus energy to the grid. Due to the mismatch between PV array production and demand, the necessity for battery storage systems increases. Therefore, the battery storage system is included to increase self?consumption. However, depending on tariff structure, consumption, and production, the availability of the systems might be adapted. This dissertation seeks to investigate the possibilities of deploying the grid-integrated residential PY-battery system for Mongolian houses and develop a viable configuration. To investigate the possibilities of the PY-battery system for Mongolian conditions, to begin with, we investigated the current electricity tariff market, household load consumption, and PV generation potential. A simulation model including the PV array, battery storage system, and load for the private house/Ger is developed with historical data. A simple operation strategy based on FIT tariff mechanism using PSIM software is studied. Thereafter, the impacts of numerous households with the PY-battery system on the low-voltage network were investigated. This can be implemented effectively in Mongolian households. It confrrms that tons of harmful emissions can be reduced.

making up the majority. These distinct culturally rooted groupings are further split based on where they are from geographically within the nation. Following the civil war (1992?1996), which fueled ethnic polarization and spawned strategic clusters within the city, these differences have grown even more prominent. The current study examines ethnic segmentation in Kabul City, particularly emphasizing how historical and modern urban planning initiatives have addressed these disparities. We began by thoroughly assessing the literature on ethnic segregation in urban areas and the existence of ethnic and sub-ethnic groupings in Afghanistan. A化er that, we looked closely at Kabul's formal planning history and considered how the government dealt with ethnic segmentation and urban development. According to our research, smaller sub-ethnic communities are created due to people migrating from rural areas and the return of immigrants. These groups of people are connected by a shared identity known as "Qawm," in which community mosques as communal buildings play a crucial role. Additionally, we discovered that ethnicity significantly influenced Kabul residents'preferences for where to live. We reviewed the five master plans created for Kabul City. Early master plans had little involvement from the community and were essentially technocratic and authoritarian. However, in the fourth master plan (2011), there was a turn toward participatory planning. The most recent urban design framework shows an uneven distribution of economic, administrative, and facility hubs across ethnic groups and looks to have declined in terms of participatory planning. In order to sustain communal cohesion, this study recommends that policymakers consider ethnic and sub-ethnic components in urban planning. The study highlights the need for more thoroughylans to address ethnic division to prevent the city from becoming further polarized.

athy remain unknown. We examined the cross-sectional association between smoking (current or former) and renal arteriolar hyalinosis and wall thickening with or without HU [uric acid (UA) level 7 and 5 mg/dL in men and women] in 87 patients with IgA nephropathy who underwent renal biopsy. Arteriolar hyalinosis and wall thickening were assessed by the semiquantitative grading of arterioles. The SMK/HU subgroup showed the highest indices for hyalinosis and wall thickening, followed by the non-SMK/HU, SMK/non-HU, and non- SMK/non-HU subgroups. Multiple logistic analysis showed that SMK/HU, but not SMK/non-HU, was significantly associated with an increased risk of higher-grade renal arteriolar wall thickening. However, this did not occur with hyalinosis compared to non-SMK/non-HU. The adjusted odds ratio (95% confidence interval, p value) for SMK/HU was 12.8 (1.36–119, p < 0.05) for wall thickening. An association between SMK and renal arteriolar wall thickening might be prevalent only among patients with HU and in patients with IgA nephropathy. Further prospective studies are needed to determine whether patients with HU and SMK history exhibit rapid eGFR deterioration.

…
Decision aids (DAs) are clinical conversation tools that facilitate shared decision-making (SDM) between patients and health-care providers. This study aimed to describe the development process and results of acceptability testing of a DA for individuals with stable schizophrenia, considering (i) whether to continue high-dose antipsychotics or reduce to the standard dose and (ii) whether to continue two antipsychotics or shift to monotherapy. Methods: A DA was developed according to the guidelines for the appropriate use of psychotropic medications and International Patient Decision Aid Standards (IPDAS). First, a DA prototype was developed based on a previous systematic review and meta-analysis conducted for identifying the effects of continuing or reducing antipsychotic treatment. Second, mixed-method survey was performed among individuals with schizophrenia and health-care providers to modify and finalize the DA. Results: The DA consisted of an explanation of schizophrenia, options to continue high-dose antipsychotics or reduce to the standard dose, options to continue two antipsychotics or shift to monotherapy, pros and cons of each option, and a value-clarification worksheet for each option. The patients (n = 20) reported acceptable language use (75%), adequate information (75%), and well-balanced presentation (79%). Health-care providers (n = 20) also provided favorable overall feedback. The final DA covered six IPDAS qualifying criteria. Conclusion: A DA was successfully developed for schizophrenia, considering whether to reduce antipsychotics, which can be used in the SDM process.

概要:
We propose a framework to analyze the relationship between the movement features of a wheel gymnast around the mounting
…
phase of Unit 2 of the vault event and execution (Escore) deductions from a machine-learning perspective. We first developed an automation system from a video of a wheel gymnast performing a tuck-front somersault to extract the four frames highlighting its Unit 2 performance of the vault event, such as take-off, pikemount, the starting point of time on the wheel, and final position before the thrust. We implemented this automation using recurrent all-pairs field transforms (RAFT) and XMem, i.e., deep network architectures respectively for optical flow estimation and video object segmentation. We then used a markerless pose-estimation system called OpenPose to acquire the coordinates of the gymnast’s body joints, such as shoulders, hips, and knees then calculate the joint angles at the extracted video frames. Finally, we constructed a regression model to estimate the E-score deductions during Unit 2 on the basis of the joint angles using an ensemble learning algorithm called Random Forests, with which we could automatically select a small number of features with the nonzero values of feature importances. By applying our framework of markerless motion analysis to videos of male wheel gymnasts performing the vault, we achieved precise estimation of the E-score deductions during Unit 2 with a determination coefficient of 0.79. We found the two movement features of particular importance for them to avoid significant deductions: time on the wheel and angles of knees at the pike-mount position. The selected features well reflected the maturity of the gymnast’s skills related to the motions of riding the wheel, easily noticeable to the judges, and their branching conditions were almost consistent with the general vault regulations.

概要:
Delayed sleep–wake phase disorder (DSWPD) is a sleep disorder in which the habitual sleep–wake timing is delayed, result
…
ing in difficulty in falling asleep and waking up at the desired time. Patients with DSWPD frequently experience fatigue, impaired concentration, sleep deprivation during weekdays, and problems of absenteeism, which may be further complicated by depressive symptoms. DSWPD is typically prevalent during adolescence and young adulthood. Although there are no studies comparing internationally, the prevalence of DSWPD is estimated to be approximately 3% with little racial differences between Caucasians and Asians. The presence of this disorder is associated with various physiological, genetic and psychological as well as behavioral factors. Furthermore, social factors are also involved in the mechanism of DSWPD. Recently, delayed sleep phase and prolonged sleep duration in the young generation have been reported during the period of COVID-19 pandemic-related behavioral restrictions. This phenomenon raises a concern about the risk of a mismatch between their sleep–wake phase and social life that may lead to the development of DSWPD after the removal of these restrictions. Although the typical feature of DSWPD is a delay in circadian rhythms, individuals with DSWPD without having misalignment of objectively measured circadian rhythm markers account for approximately 40% of the cases, wherein the psychological and behavioral characteristics of young people, such as truancy and academic or social troubles, are largely involved in the mechanism of this disorder. Recent studies have shown that DSWPD is frequently comorbid with psychiatric disorders, particularly mood and neurodevelopmental disorders, both of which have a bidirectional association with the pathophysiology of DSWPD. Additionally, patients with DSWPD have a strong tendency toward neuroticism and anxiety, which may result in the aggravation of insomnia symptoms. Therefore, future studies should address the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral approaches in addition to chronobiological approaches in the treatment of DSWPD.

概要:
The following is a curated conversation between Marina Karides and Noralis Rodríguez-Coss, who together founded the Isla
…
nd Feminisms Project and continue to advance feminist, decolonial, and social justice approaches in island studies. With the publication of “Why Island Feminism?” (Karides 2017), conference sessions, and the establishment of the Island Feminisms Spring Series, begun in 2020, the co-founders suggest that the field of island studies was guided towards gender and women (see Gender and Island Communities 2020, edited by Gaini and Nielsen as an example). However, they argue that the field continues to struggle to incorporate feminist and intersectional frameworks analytically. Karides and Rodríguez-Coss explore the paucity of feminist grounding in island studies, which tends towards the approach of “add women and stir.” Their dialogue reveals grassroots island activism as the core of island feminisms, which they identify as a social justice project.

e, located in the Gulf of Saint Lawrence on the Atlantic coast. Despite historical traumas and the pressures exerted by a majority Anglophone environment, the small Island Acadian population has persisted and thrived. Nevertheless, the process of anglicization that began in earnest in the 1860s continues to the present day. This article examines the goals, production, and reception of a mini web-documentary series about living in French on Prince Edward Island that aims to encourage the intergenerational transmission of the French language and foster a sense of legitimization and cultural pride. Complementing a long history of community activism around the Island’s French language and Acadian culture, the documentary project uses music, storytelling, and technology to promote cultural and linguistic sustainability. This article explores the role of music in the contemporary dynamics of sustaining, celebrating, and advocating for the French language and Francophone Acadian culture in this small island community.

…
in journalism research and publication, publishing the globally ranked peer-reviewed journal Pacific Journalism Review, monographs, and a series of media and social justice books and documentaries. Perhaps even more important was the centre’s role in nurturing young and challenging Asia-Pacific student journalists and communicators seeking social change and providing them with the opportunity, support, and encouragement to enable them to become confident changemakers and community advocates. This article is a case study of a style of academic advocacy and activism that was characterised by its own multiethnic stakeholders’ advisory board as “the voice of the voiceless.” A feature was the “Talanoa journalism” model (Robie 2014), focused more on grassroots people and community resilience, especially faced with the global COVID-19 pandemic and climate crisis. The inspired initiative ended with a change of management to a more neoliberal approach to education at the university with scant appreciation for the vision.

…
ng the Yuri tribe in Papua New Guinea (PNG). The formation of the community-led peace movement YAKA (Yuri Alaiku Kuikane Association) in 2013 led to a stop of the tribal fights that frequently occurred among the Yuri people over several decades. Accusations of sorcery, previously related to tribal fights and contemporary forms of violent accusations, disproportionately affect women in the patriarchal PNG highland society. However, less documented are women’s roles in addressing sorcery accusation-related violence. Building on women’s agency and involvement in local peacebuilding, this paper investigates the contribution of women in mitigating sorcery accusations and related violence. The action research project discussed in this article included the local storytelling approach kapori and incorporated photovoice for participants to share their lived experiences. We examine the gendered dynamics in local activism and the cultural context of Yuri with regards to community well-being and leadership to inform future violence prevention strategies. Our research investigates the strategies of Yuri women to meaningfully contribute to peacebuilding and social cohesion to inform future violence prevention strategies. We demonstrate how Yuri women enact their agency in both private and public spaces, informed by empathy, traditional and Church values, family, and relational concepts.

ions of, and contributions to decolonization. Created in February 2022, it operates in a context of ongoing French settler colonialism and through a formal decolonization process. However, this formal decolonization process has been questioned and critiqued, especially when it comes to France’s interest to maintain its sovereignty in Kanaky/New Caledonia and in the Pacific region more generally. This paper explores “La Pause Décoloniale” as a feminist intervention by women to resist the despair and disappointment generated by the current political context. It discusses how the radio program came about, presents the members of the team and how they work collaboratively, and their vision of the relation between feminism and decolonization. The paper also reflects on the episodes produced and the importance of translation. It does so by connecting the practice of “La Pause Décoloniale” to the history of women’s political action in the Pacific and in Kanaky/New Caledonia and making visible the constellation of relations to people, to place(s), and to struggles that are necessary to meaningfully do the work of decolonization.

(CBT) for anxiety. We also assessed its acceptability among stakeholders. Methods: First, we conducted a literature review regarding anxiety disorders to determine treatment options. We cited the results of the systematic review and meta-analysis, which we conducted previously, to describe the related outcomes of two options: tapering BZD anxiolytics with CBT and tapering BZD anxiolytics without CBT. Second, we developed a DA prototype in accordance with the International Patient Decision Aid Standards. We carried out a mixed methods survey to assess the acceptability among stakeholders including those with anxiety disorders and healthcare providers. Results: Our DA provided information such as explanation of anxiety disorders, options of tapering or not tapering BZD anxiolytics (if tapering, the options of tapering BZD anxiolytics with or without CBT) for anxiety disorder, benefits and risks of each option, and a worksheet for value clarification. For patients (n = 21), the DA appeared to be acceptable language (86%), adequate information (81%), and well-balanced presentation (86%). The developed DA was also acceptable for healthcare providers (n = 10). Conclusion: We successfully created a DA for individuals with anxiety disorders who consider tapering BZD anxiolytics, which was acceptable for both patients and healthcare providers. Our DA was designed to assist patients and healthcare providers to involve decision-making about whether to taper BZD anxiolytics or not.

dy aimed to answer the following clinical questions: (1) how to use each hypnotic and non-pharmacological treatment differently depending on clinical situations and (2) how to reduce or stop benzodiazepine hypnotics using alternative pharmacological and nonpharmacological treatments. Methods: Experts were asked to evaluate treatment choices based on 10 clinical questions about insomnia disorder using a nine-point Likert scale (1 = “disagree” to 9 = “agree”). The responses of 196 experts were collected, and the answers were categorized into first-, second-, and third-line recommendations. Results: The primary pharmacological treatment, lemborexant (7.3 2.0), was categorized as a first-line recommendation for sleep initiation insomnia, and lemborexant (7.3 1.8) and suvorexant (6.8 1.8) were categorized as the first-line recommendations for sleep maintenance insomnia. Regarding nonpharmacological treatments for primary treatment, sleep hygiene education was categorized as the first-line recommendation for both sleep initiation (8.4 1.1) and maintenance insomnia (8.1 1.5), while multicomponent cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia was categorized as the second-line treatment for both sleep initiation (5.6 2.3) and maintenance insomnia (5.7 2.4). When reducing or discontinuing benzodiazepine hypnotics by switching to other medications, lemborexant (7.5 1.8) and suvorexant (6.9 1.9) were categorized as first-line recommendations. Conclusion: Expert consensus indicates that orexin receptor antagonists and sleep hygiene education are recommended as first-line treatments in most clinical situations to treat insomnia disorder.

essions were classified into three clusters—A, B1, and B2—based on their reactions to 26 standard differential blast isolates selected in Vietnam. Cluster A was the dominant cultivar group in Vietnam and the most susceptible of the three clusters. Cluster B1 was the smallest group and the most resistant. Cluster B2 was the second-most dominant group and of intermediate resistance between clusters A and B1. The percentages of accessions comprising each cluster varied by region and area. Accessions in cluster A were distributed widely throughout Vietnam and had the highest frequencies in both the Central and North regions. Accessions in cluster B2 were found with highest frequencies in the mountainous and intermediate areas of the North region. Accessions in cluster B1 were found with highest frequencies in the Central region and Red River Delta area (North region). These results suggest that rice accessions in Vietnam were basically susceptible (cluster A) or of intermediate resistance (cluster B2), and that high-resistance cultivars were mainly distributed in the low altitude areas, such as the Red River Delta area and Central region.

eory. This study investigated the associations among maternal attachment style, maternal willingness to serve as an attachment figure, and children’s attachment security in middle childhood in Japan. Sample 1 included a nationwide web survey of 104 dyads of fifth and sixth graders and their mothers. Sample 2 included 53 dyads in an in-person questionnaire survey conducted in Kyoto. In both Samples 1 and 2, the results revealed (1) negative Spearman’s rank correlation coefficients between maternal attachment anxiety and children’s attachment security, (2) positive Pearson’s product-moment correlation coefficients between maternal willingness to serve as an attachment figure and children’s attachment security, and (3) negative Pearson’s product-moment correlation coefficients between maternal attachment anxiety and maternal willingness to serve as an attachment figure. Our data could enhance the cross-cultural validity of attachment in fifth and sixth graders, and suggest that the influence of maternal attachment styles on parental responsiveness changes in middle childhood.

objects are also incorrectly recognized as input operations. This phenomenon is called the “Midas touch problem”, and classifying visual intentions is extremely important. In this paper, we develop a deep learning model that estimates the user’s visual intention in real time and an electric wheelchair control system that combines intention estimation and the gaze dwell time method. The proposed model consists of a 1DCNN-LSTM that estimates visual intention from feature vectors of 10 variables, such as eye movement, head movement, and distance to the fixation point. The evaluation experiments classifying four types of visual intentions show that the proposed model has the highest accuracy compared to other models. In addition, the results of the driving experiments of the electric wheelchair implementing the proposed model show that the user’s efforts to operate the wheelchair are reduced and that the operability of the wheelchair is improved compared to the traditional method. From these results, we concluded that visual intentions could be more accurately estimated by learning time series patterns from eye and head movement data.

takeholders’ perceptions. This study aimed to assess and compare the perceptions of BZD use and decision making regarding its discontinuation between psychiatric outpatients and psychiatrists. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted. Results: Of 104 outpatients, 92% were taking hypnotics and 96% were taking anxiolytics for a year, while 49% were willing to taper hypnotic/anxiolytics within a year of starting. Most psychiatrists felt that “patient and psychiatrist make the decision together on an equal basis” compared to patients (p < 0.001), while more patients felt that “the decision is (was) made considering the psychiatrists’ opinion” compared to psychiatrists (p < 0.001). Of 543 psychiatrists, 79% reported “patients were not willing to discontinue hypnotic/anxiolytic” whereas a certain number of patients conveyed “psychiatrists did not explain in enough detail about hypnotic/anxiolytic discontinuation such as procedure (18.3%), timing (19.2%), and appropriate condition (14.4%)”. Conclusion: The results suggest that the majority of psychiatric outpatients were taking hypnotic/anxiolytics for a long time against their will. There might be a difference in perceptions toward hypnotic/anxiolytic use and decision making for its discontinuation between psychiatric outpatients and psychiatrists. Further research is necessary to fill this gap.
