Nutritional Intakes of Obese Elementary School Children Residing in the Shimokita Peninsula of Aomori, Japan
International Journal of Public Health Science (IJPHS) Vol.3, No.3, September 2014, pp. 194~205 ISSN: 2252-8806 194 Nutritional Intakes of Obese Elementary School Children Residing in the Shimokita Peninsula of Aomori, Japan Takako Kumagai1, Yumiko Nakamura1, Emi Naijo2, Akiko Sugimoto3, Barry Kavanagh1, Haruyuki Ito1 1 Aomori University of Health and Welfare, Japan 2 Department of Health and Welfare, Aomori Prefecture, Japan 3 Kanagawa Children’s Medical Center, Japan Article Info ABSTRACT Article history: This research examined the lifestyles and eating habits of 42 elementary school fifthgraders (20 boys and 22 girls) over a 3-day period;these Received Jul 12, 2014 childrenresided in the Shimokita Peninsula, Aomori prefecture, which has the Revised Aug 20, 2014 highest childhood obesity ratein Japan. The children’s nutritional intakeswere Accepted Aug 28, 2014 recordedvia questionnaires and self-documented meal record diaries over a 3- day period (1weekday and the weekend). The meal record diaries recordedwhichmeals the children ate (including snacks) duringthe 3-day Keyword: period. A regular feature of these children’s lifestylewasthe viewing of at least 3 hours of television per day. Compared withthe National Health and Childhood Obesity Nutrition Survey conducted by the Japanese government,the nutritional and Dietary survey energy intake levels were the same but when we examined food group Rural intakes, the vegetable intake was lower on weekends in comparison to the Salt intake weekdays when the children were provided school lunches. In addition, salt Vegetable intake exceeded the recommended standard in more than80% of the study sample. We suggest that the pattern of reduced vegetable intake juxtaposed with high salt intake stems from childhood and is repeated and passed down through generations; therefore,the guardians of these children require nutritional guidance and education.

A Longitudinal Analysis on the Prevalence of Overweight and Underweight Students in Aomori Prefecture in Relation to Gender, Birth Year and District
Original Article A Longitudinal Analysis on the Prevalence of Overweight and Underweight Students in Aomori Prefecture in Relation to Gender, Birth Year and District Takako Kumagai*, Ryoko Tanikawa** and Masashi Yamada** *Aomori University of Health and Welfare, Faculty of Health Sciences, Department of Nutrition 58-1 Mase, Hamadate, Aomori-shi, Aomori 030-8505 Japan [email protected] **Aomori University of Health and Welfare, Faculty of Health Sciences, Department of Nursing [Received December 7, 2018 ; Accepted July 14, 2019] Background: It has been reported that there is a pattern of onset of overweight and underweight in children and students. The prevalence of overweight children and students in Aomori Prefecture is higher than the national average for all grades, but a large-scale longitudinal analysis of overweight and underweight among children and students has not been conducted. Therefore, it has not been clarified whether there is a particular pattern in the onset of overweight or underweight. Thus, in Aomori Prefecture, large-scale longitudinal analysis on overweight and underweight of children and students is required. As the harmful effects of childhood obesity have become widely known and enlightenment activities have been carried out, overweight prevalence of children and students has been decreasing in recent years. Further reduction of overweight and underweight prevalence requires a high-risk approach, for which longitudinal data on overweight and underweight transitions is strongly required. Objective: We aim to clarify whether there is a particular pattern in the prevalence of overweight and underweight children and students in Aomori Prefecture. Methods: We constructed a pseudo-cohort using data from the Aomori Prefecture children and Student’s Health and Physical Fitness Survey Report from fiscal year (FY) 2007 to FY2018 (full survey) and the Annual Report of School Health Statistics Researches by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (sample survey).

Distributions of Zosteraceae Species Along the Coasts of Aomori Prefecture, Locating at the Northernmost of Honshu, Japan
Algal Resources (2013) 6：1-13 Distributions of Zosteraceae species along the coasts of Aomori Prefecture, locating at the northernmost of Honshu, Japan Shinji KIRIHARA1*, Naoto KON２, Daisuke FUJITA３ and Masahiro NOTOYA４ Abstract : Distribution and standing crops of Zosteraceae species were surveyed along the coasts of Aomori Prefecture, locating at the northernmost of Honshu, Japan, from 1999 to 2002. Sampling were made at depths of 2.5 m (1,079 points), 5 m (1,181 points) and 10 m (1,183 points) on transects set at about 500 m intervals along the whole coasts divided in four areas according to oceanographic and topographic characteristics: the Japan Sea coastal area affected by Tsushima (warm) Current, the Pacific coastal area affected by Oyashio (cold) Current, coastal areas facing to the Tsugaru Strait connecting the two seas, and coastal areas of Mutsu Bay embayed by Tsugaru and Shimokita Peninsula. Distribution patterns of Zosteraceae species can be summarized as below. Phyllospadix iwatensis Makino: common on bedrocks along the Tsugaru Straight and Pacific coast but absent in Mutsu Bay; Zostera marina Linnaeus: common on soft bottoms of Mutsu Bay and Tsugaru Straight areas but absent in the Pacific coast; Z. caespitosa Miki: common on soft bottoms of Tsugaru Strait and Mutsu Bay; Z. caulescens Miki: restricted to a depth of 10 m in Tsugaru Strait coast. In Mutsu Bay, distributions of Z. marina and Z. caespitosa rarely overlapped and the latter species showed a tendency to grow in deeper depths. Sediment analyses of their habitats revealed that Z. caespitosa were likely to grow in the habitat with thinner sediment layer and coarser particle than Z.

This study was the first to determine the conception dates of specific individuals and estimate the pregnancy rate of wild populations in this region. The pregnancy rate of animals aged 5 years or more at delivery was estimated to be 40.9% (27/66). Conception dates of each fetus were also estimated using a regression line of Pig-tail monkeys (Macaca nemestrina), which are taxonomically related to Japanese monkeys and have a similar physique.
