Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss in Patients with Vestibular Schwannoma
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Sudden sensorineural hearing loss in patients with vestibular schwannoma Koichiro Wasano1,2*, Naoki Oishi3*, Masaru Noguchi4, Ko Hentona2, Seiichi Shinden5, Tsubasa Kitama5, Nobuyoshi Tsuzuki3,6, Taiji Kawasaki7, Yoshihiko Hiraga7, Yasuhiko Takei8 & Kaoru Ogawa3 Clinical features of sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) associated with vestibular schwannoma (VS) are not fully understood. Determining a treatment plan and explaining it to patients requires clinicians to clearly understand the clinical features related to the tumor, including SSNHL. To identify the full range of clinical features of VS-associated SSNHL, especially recovery of hearing following multiple episodes of SSNHL and what factors predict recovery and recurrence. A multicenter retrospective chart review was conducted in seven tertiary care hospitals between April 1, 2011, and March 31, 2020. We collected and analyzed dose of administered steroid, pure-tone audiometry results, and brain MRIs of patients diagnosed with VS-associated SSNHL. Seventy-seven patients were included. They experienced 109 episodes of audiogram-confrmed SSNHL. The highest proportion of complete recoveries occurred in patients with U-shaped audiograms. The recovery rates for the frst, second, and third and subsequent episodes of SSNHL were 53.5%, 28.0%, and 9.1%, respectively. Recovery rate decreased signifcantly with increasing number of SSNHL episodes (P =0 .0011; Cochran- Armitage test). After the frst episode of SSNHL, the recurrence-free rate was 69.9% over 1 year and 57.7% over 2 years; the median recurrence time was 32 months. Logarithmic approximation revealed that there is a 25% probability that SSNHL would recur within a year. SSNHL in patients with VS is likely to recur within one year in 25% of cases. -
Relation Between the Tokyo Olympics and Real Estate Industry
Relation Between the Tokyo Olympics and Real Estate Industry Report 2015 On the Occasion of Publication Hiromasa Nakamura Director General All Japan Real Estate Association, Tokyo Head Office Real Estate Guarantee Association, Tokyo Head Office In September 2013, Tokyo was selected as the host city for the 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games (hereinafter referred to as the Olympics) at the meeting of the International Olympic Committee. It is still fresh in our memories that not only the citizens of Tokyo but also people throughout Japan were thrilled with joy. The All Japan Real Estate Association, Tokyo head office, has been making survey studies related to condominium policy, regional disaster prevention, and city planning, as well as proposals based on such studies through the research institute it established, Zennichi Tokyo Academy, headed by Professor Yasushi Aoyama of Meiji University Graduate School and the former vice governor of the Tokyo metropolitan government. The Zennichi Tokyo Academy has been studying the topic of the relation between the Tokyo Olympics and the real estate industry over two years since the decision came that the Olympics will be held in Tokyo. While it is expected that there will be even more real estate transactions by foreigners ahead of the Olympics, on the other hand, we are seeing more and more vacant dwellings due to the declining birthrate and depopulation and this is becoming a social problem. At the Zennichi Tokyo Academy, discussions have been advanced under the recognition that in addition to making Tokyo a city that will prosper in terms of business, it is important to maintain and expand Tokyo as a city that is safe, secure, and easy to live in even as it internationalizes. -
Deep Two-Way Matrix Reordering for Relational Data Analysis
Deep Two-Way Matrix Reordering for Relational Data Analysis Chihiro Watanabe∗1 and Taiji Suzuki†1,2 1Graduate School of Information Science Technology, The University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan 2Center for Advanced Intelligence Project (AIP), RIKEN, Tokyo, Japan Abstract Matrix reordering is a task to permute the rows and columns of a given observed matrix such that the resulting reordered matrix shows meaningful or interpretable structural patterns. Most existing matrix reordering techniques share the common processes of extracting some feature representations from an observed matrix in a predefined manner, and applying matrix reordering based on it. However, in some practical cases, we do not always have prior knowledge about the structural pattern of an observed matrix. To address this problem, we propose a new matrix reordering method, called deep two-way matrix reordering (DeepTMR), using a neural network model. The trained network can automatically extract nonlinear row/column features from an observed matrix, which can then be used for matrix reordering. Moreover, the proposed DeepTMR provides the denoised mean matrix of a given observed matrix as an output of the trained network. This denoised mean matrix can be used to visualize the global structure of the reordered observed matrix. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed DeepTMR by applying it to both synthetic and practical datasets. Keywords: matrix reordering, relational data analysis, neural network, visualization 1 Introduction Matrix reordering or seriation is a task to permute the rows and columns of a given observed ma- trix such that the resulting matrix shows meaningful or interpretable structural patterns [4, 22]. Such reordering-based matrix visualization techniques provide an overview of the various practical data ma- trices, including gene expression data [8, 12], document-term relationship data [5], and archaeological data [18] (e.g., the relationships between tombs and objects in Egypt [26]). -
Mapping of Micro Topography on Hill Slopes Using Airborne Laser Scanning 47 Mapping of Micro Topography on Hill Slopes Using Airborne Laser Scanning
Mapping of Micro Topography on Hill Slopes Using Airborne Laser Scanning 47 Mapping of Micro Topography on Hill Slopes Using Airborne Laser Scanning Tatsuo SEKIGUCHI,1) Hiroshi P. SATO,2) Seiji ICHIKAWA,1) Ryoichi KOJIROI 2) Abstract Rain-induced landslides may result in disaster by destroying homes and buildings. Fluid landslides are characterized by rapid movement and long run-out distance. Aerial photos have been used to observe and measure the slopes. In addition, a new technology called airborne laser scanning, is a promising tool for observing and measuring slopes. In this study, hilly terrain where landslides have occurred was measured by airborne laser scanning. Furthermore micro landslide characteristics such as scars were identified in detail, by combining contour maps based on airborne laser scanning data and remote sensing such as aerial photos interpretation. 1. Introduction laser scanning data measured in Tama Hills near Tokyo. Japan has many hills and mountains, and it is located in humid climate influenced by the wet monsoon. 2. Study area Rain-induced landslides may cause disasters by destroying The Tama Hills are located near the boundary homes and buildings in urban and urbanizing areas. Fluid between the western Kanto Mountains and the Kanto Plain landslides, which are most dangerous and damaging, are (Fig. 1). The Tama Hills lie on the southwest side of the characterized by rapid movement and long run-out distance Tama River, and elevation gradually increases from the (Wang and Sassa, 2002). To elucidate the mechanism of southeast to northwest. Namely, the elevation increases this phenomenon, it is important to measure slopes which from 80 m in the eastern part of Kawasaki and Yokohama have already caused landslides in detail. -

The Japan Library Association
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF LIBRARIANSHIP, 4(2), 123-128 ISSN: 2474-3542 The Japan Library Association Taro Miura Meiji University, Chiyoda City, Tokyo, Japan ABSTRACT The Japan Library Association (JLA) was established in 1892 following the establishment of American Library Association (ALA) in 1876, and Library Association (LA, now CILIP, the UK library and information association) in 1877 in the United Kingdom. JLA has been a leader in forming Japanese librarianship by organizing professional activities such as national conferences, local seminars, and publishing journals and books. This article describes the history and organization of JLA, and how JLA encourages Japanese librarians to develop professional skills. Keywords: Library Association, Global Library Cooperation Located in northeastern Asia, Japan is a Pacific Rim archipelago country with a total land area of 378,000 km2, including over 126 million people. The word for library is Toshokan in Japanese. Tosho means book, and suffix word -kan means building. Each city (population over 50,000) has its own public library. There are 3,296 public libraries (2018) offering library services to the public in Japan, in addition to three national libraries, 1,427 university libraries, and 37,979 school libraries. Almost all public libraries and academic libraries have their own public online catalog available via the Internet. HISTORY The first modern public library was opened in Japan around 1872 under the influence of western culture, although premodern open library has existed since 8th century. Originally, the Japan Library Association (JLA) was founded in 1892 to promote library services and to cooperate librarians around Tokyo metropolitan areas. Mr. -

Abstract: This paper aims at analyzing the process of urban shrinkage in the Japanese frame. It focuses on the case of Tama New town, developed at the end of the sixties 40 km West of Tokyo during a period of demographic boom. Nowadays, this ageing new town is representative of Tokyo’s shrinking suburb. Criteria of shrinkage are defined and tested in Tama. Thus, it is possible to delimit a form of retraction or shrinkage characteristic of that kind of suburb. As a result, applied solutions are proposed, calling into question a model of urbanization (endless urban sprawl) and bringing to the fore new debates concerning reversibility and sustainability of town planning. Key words: new town, suburb, ageing, shrinkage, planning, reversibility. Introduction The traditional Japanese urban model is currently undergoing major transformations. Large cities, which had been continuously sprawling, are now experiencing an adverse process, due to population’s decline (Fujimasa, Furukawa, 2000) and ageing and sluggish land markets (Aveline, 2003, 2004). This began some years ago, but it is now reaching a critical point. -
