  • Chapter 4: Science and Technology Supported by Society and the Public
    Keyword: Part 2 - Measures Implemented to Promote Science and Technology Science and Technology Supported by Society and the Chapter 4 Chapter 4 Pubic 1 Responsible Approaches to Ethical, Legal, and Social Issues in Science and Technology (1) Establishing of a sense of ethics for researchers and engineers In recent years, Japan has faced a situation where misconduct, such as fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism (FFP) of data in research, has been revealed. Such misconduct in scientific research must not be allowed since it goes against the essential qualities of science to create new knowledge through accumulated searches for truth. Misconduct also undermines public trust in science and hinders scientific progress. Following the approval of the Proper Counteractions against Research Misconduct by CSTP in February 2006, CSTP revised the Countermeasures against Misconduct in Research Activities by the Competitive Research Fund (agreement in the Liaison Committee of Ministries and Agencies Concerned with Competitive Funding) in November 2006 to stipulate measures for FFP in research. Thereafter, the establishment of guidelines, reflection in application guidelines, and other measures were promoted among the related ministries and agencies. MEXT established a special committee on research misconduct under CST. In August 2006, the committee finalized guidelines on the systems and rules to be formulated by MEXT, funding agencies, and other research organizations such as universities. The guidelines requested them to implement approaches to misconduct, including establishment of a reception desk for accusations, investigation systems, and formulation of provisions related to the above-stated issues; MEXT established a reception desk for accusations within the ministry in November 2006. In December 2006, MAFF also finalized such guidelines on actions for misconduct in research, requested related organizations to implement approaches to misconduct, and established a reception desk for accusations.

No details about the policy were *Promoters would be charged an annual fee for a promoter's available at press time but it will include wrestlers making public license. If the promoter averaged more than 1,000 paying service anti-steroid promos on television. Hopefully Frey, who is spectators per event in Florida over the previous year, his a newcomer to the wrestling world, will realize the touchiness license fee would be $1,000 (which would mean only WWF and involved in this issue and not try to have wrestlers who have WCW). All others wishing to promote would have to pay $250 achieved the spotlight partially through the use of steroids for a promoters license (which covers a lot of ground) to then make statements that give one the impression they would never touch the stuff. Frey *There would be a five percent tax on all live gates. The original also said in comments for this coming Sunday's Miami Herald bill included taxes not only on live gates, but also on gimmicks that WCW would be instituting a policy to post signs in front of sold at live events and pay-per-view revenue from systems arenas when advertised talent isn't going to appear.

  • Algorithm of the JJ Risk Engine
    SUPPLEMENTARY DATA Algorithm of the JJ risk engine. The JJ risk engine calculates t-year probabilities of fatal and non-fatal coronary heart disease, fatal and non-fatal stroke, non-cardiovascular mortality, overt nephropathy defined by persistent proteinuria and progression of retinopathy by inputting a covariate vector X and a time point for prediction t (i.e. the formula calculates 5-year probability if t=5) into the formula shown below. 2 Specifically, define X={sex (man=0, woman=1), age, HbA1C, years after diagnosis, BMI<18.5 kg/m (yes=1, no=0), BMI≥25 kg/m2 (yes=1, no=0), systolic blood pressure, non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, log-transformed urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio, atrial fibrillation (yes=1, no=0), current smoker (yes=1, no=0), leisure time physical activity (≥3.8METs-h/wk=1, otherwise=0) }. Let βjk be a vector of log hazard ratios for transition from state j to k; the state indexed by j=1…7 represent the initial state, presence of Stage 1 or 4 retinopathy, fatal and non-fatal coronary heart disease, fatal and non-fatal stroke, non-cardiovascular mortality, overt nephropathy defined by persistent proteinuria and progression of retinopathy, respectively. The states j=3…7 were assumed to be absorbing. The estimated hazard ratios for the JJ risk engine, exp(βjk), are provided in Table 1. Let λ0jk(t) be a baseline transition intensity for transition from state j to k. Then, the cause-specific transition intensity for a patient with covariate Xi is written as λijk(t)=λ0jk(t)exp(Xiβjk).

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ureses f Bntisn Lib^arv o ' Political a n d E c o o ' «rtMt S c ie ,v ’f! \ZC& ABSTRACT Japan’s imperial history and its narrow self-interested post-WW II policies caused much animosity in Eastern Asia, yet its improved relations in the region from the 1980s onwards, even when assessed from a critical perspective, demand scholarly attention. This dissertation finds improved relations a result of Japan legitimating its regional hegemony. The critical theories of Gramsci (1937) and Habermas (1976) applied within intemtional relations suggest legitimation of hegemonic power at the international level only occurs when providing ‘global public goods’—defined metaphorically with the UNDP’s modification of Kindleberger’s (1986) work—such that post colonial states achieve rapid economic development to close the rich-poor gap as understood by Strange (1950).
