It is also the first city university in Japan, tracing its beginnings to the Osaka Commercial Training Institute founded in 1880. This institute was founded thanks to the leadership of Tomoatsu Godai, a cosmopolitan samurai who lived by the motto of “tari” (the idea of giving priority to others), and who was said to be the founding father of the modern economy of Osaka, responsible for modernizing the city. To mark the opening of our predecessor, the Osaka Commercial Training Institute, Dr. Hajime Seki, the mayor of Osaka at the time, made a quote, saying that as a university with the goal of fostering academia in the background Nobel Prizes of the city of Osaka, “This institution should not be an imitation of Japan’s national universities.” These words have Dr. Yoichiro Nambu（1921-2015） （Distinguished Professor Emeritus） been carried on from one generation to the next as the spirit of establishing our university. Nobel Prize in Physics in 2008 for This spirit has given our university a freehearted character, and it has produced many great alumni. Among them are the discovery of the mechanism of spontaneous broken symmetry Distinguished Professor Yoichiro Nambu, who established the theoretical physics group at our university and won 1880 1928 in subatomic physics. the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2008 for the discovery of the theory of spontaneous broken symmetry, which is the Establishment of Founding of basis for elementary particle physics. He was followed by Dr. Shinya Yamanaka, Director of the Center for iPS Cell the Osaka Commercial Osaka University of Commerce, Training Institute the frst city university in Japan Research and Application, Kyoto University, who earned his PhD from Osaka City University, and won the Nobel Dr. Shinya Yamanaka Founded by Tomoatsu Godai, the Hajime Seki, the Mayor of Osaka at Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2012 for his research on iPS cells (induced pluripotent stem cells). In the business （1993 OCU Graduate School of world as well, many founders of major companies and representatives of stock market listed companies, as well as father of the modern economy of the time, made the motto “The Medicine alumnus） Osaka, as the second school of university is here for the city, and the internationally active alumni have graduated from our university. business law in Japan after city is here for the university,” and so Nobel Prize in Medicine in 2012 Tokyo. the first city university in Japan was for the discovery that mature cells What does society need? Talented people who can clearly indicate what they will study, what they can do, and what established with strong expectations can be reprogrammed to become they want to do at university. The significance of enrolling in university is to find and decide your purpose in life. At of the residents of Osaka. pluripotent. our university, we focus on education to achieve this.

Founder’s Noble Spirit Fused with Mercantile Rationalism One of our inspirational founders was Tomoatsu Godai, a former samurai who understood the importance of industrialization. He studied in Britain before the Meiji Revolution in 1868, a landmark of Japanese modernization, and greatly contributed to the development of modern Osaka, a city of commerce, industry, culture and innovation. Godai’s core belief was to think of others before thinking of oneself. Good for Everyone（Sanpo-yoshi） Social Conscience of Osaka Citizens Godai was enthusiastically supported by the people of Osaka. Why? Because his attitude was perfectly aligned with the merchants’ belief in sanpo-yoshi, which means “benefit for all three sides”: vendors, customers and society in general. OCU Innovators OCU adopts Godai’s spirit in its disciplines. In research as well as in education, we foster modern samurai and encourage them to venture out in various intellectual fields, always thinking of others.

We performed a cross-sectional study to clarify the associations between salt load index (urinary sodium- to-potassium ratio (Na/K ratio)), current disease activity, and hypertension in an RA population. Methods: Three hundred thirty-six participants from our cohort database (KURAMA) were enrolled. We used the spot urine Na/K ratio as a simplified index of salt loading and used the 28-Joint RA Disease Activity Score (DAS28- ESR) as an indicator of current RA disease activity. Using these indicators, we evaluated statistical associations between urinary Na/K ratio, DAS28-ESR, and prevalence of hypertension. Results: Urinary Na/K ratio was positively associated with measured systolic and diastolic blood pressure and also with prevalence of hypertension even after covariate adjustment (OR 1.34, p < 0.001). In addition, increased urinary Na/K ratio was significantly and positively correlated with DAS28-ESR in multiple regression analysis (estimate 0.12, p < 0.001), as was also the case in gender-separated and prednisolone-separated sub-analyses.

  • Facilities Are Enhancing Research Quality
    University Establishments Facilities are Enhancing Research Quality One of the key elements of the internationally lauded accomplishments of our researchers is 智the university’s state-of-the-art laboratories and research facilities. Meteorology MU Radar Observations Atmospheric Turbulence In collaboration with a French research group, we conducted an extensive study on the small-scale dynamics of the lower atmosphere. The study aims to characterize atmospheric turbulence, its sources and its interactions with large- scale dynamics and clouds by means of remote sensing and in situ observations. The Middle and Upper atmosphere (MU) radar of the Research Institute for Sustainable Humanosphere (RISH) is one of the most suitable instruments for detecting turbulence and stable interfaces throughout the entire MU Radar troposphere at any time, irrespective of clear or cloudy conditions. In turbulence observations, excellent spatial and temporal resolutions can be achieved through a range-imaging technique using frequency diversity. In recent years, all the measurement campaigns have involved the MU radar in range-imaging mode with complementary instruments (e.g. radiosondes, Rayleigh-Mie lidars, ultra high frequency [UHF] and meteorological radars) for validating the technique in turbulence studies. The bottom figure shows an example of a time-height cross section of echo power obtained using the MU radar in range-imaging mode on 8 October 2008. We found Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) braided-like structures along the slope of a cloud base gradually rising with time at an altitude of approximately 5 km, and vertical air motion oscillations exceeding ±3 m/s with a period of approximately 3 min above and below the cloud base.

    An Analysis of Elliptical Phenomena Based on Non-Constituent Deletion by Daisuke Hirai B. A., Kyoto University of Foreign Studies, 1997 M. S., University of Wisconsin-River Falls, 1999 A Dissertation Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy to Kansai Gaidai University 2018 Acknowledgements It is hardly a trivial task to properly acknowledge everyone who has helped me during my research and reach this point. Without their help, this dissertation would never have come into existence or taken shape as it is. First and foremost, I would like to thank Yukio Oba, my thesis supervisor. He has given me a lot of advice and constant encouragement since I was a graduate student at Nagoya University. I am very fortunate that he invited me to study at Kansai Gaidai University and work on this topic to complete this dissertation. It has been a great pleasure to study under his guidance. I cannot thank him enough for reading my rough draft and giving me a lot of comments on it. I would also like to thank the other members of the committee, Nobuo Okada, Kansai Gaidai University, and Sadayuki Okada, Osaka University for reading my paper and giving me a lot of valuable comments. Their comments helped me look into more ellipsis-related examples. This will lead me to work on another topic as a next step. I would also like to acknowledge the past and present members of the graduate school of Kansai Gaidai University, Jun Omune and Shota Tanaka for reading my first version of this dissertation and their comments on it.
