    We used gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to identify odor components adhering to the covering material that protects the skin lesions of hospitalized patients. Acetoin, acetol, diacetyl, and isovaleric acid, which are classified as malodors, were identified as qualitative candidate components that adhered to the covering material protecting the skin lesions. These results suggest that the GC-MS method can be used to qualitatively detect candidate odor components from covering materials that protect skin lesions.

    Finger arterial elasticity and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity [baPWV]were measured in 51 healthy young participants (30 men and 21 women) and the correlation between these measures was examined. Finger arterial elasticity can be evaluated by using an exponential model of the pressure-volume relationship of three model parameters a, b, and n [V=a-b×exp (-nP) ]. These parameters were estimated for three ranges of transmural pressure: overall, under 40mmHg, and over 30mmHg, using a finger occlusion maneuver. On the overall and the over 30mmHg of transmural pressure, parameter n in women was larger than those in men. It is probable that differences in finger arterial size caused the larger parameter aobserved in men, compared to women. In men, the correlation of overall (-0.395), and over 30mmHg (-0.406) conditions between parameter n and baPWV were significant. It is concluded that the exponential model of pressure-volume relationship was demonstrated to be useful for the assessment of finger arterial stiffness. Moreover, the elasticity of the finger artery seemed to be greater in healthy young women than in men.

    Regarding the quantitative evaluation of chronic stress, we verified the validity of the finger arterial dilatation test method and examined the correlation between eating behavior and coherence. The validity of the RH-NPV test (one-sided method) was verified as the finger artery dilatation test method. However, no significant correlation was found between RHI and unhealthy eating behavior, and between RHI and SOC in adolescent women, and there is a problem in using it as a quantitative evaluation of chronic stress.

    Medical facilities are prone to have odors peculiar to diseases or resulting from a range of treatments, and these odors play a role in lowering the quality of life of in-patients. However, measures nurses take to alleviate odors of patients are a sensitive issue in the relationship with patients, and this has delayed the research into odor control in Japan compared to Europe and the USA.
    This study is based on a questionnaire survey to identify the awareness of odors among nurses and determine details of the situation around measures to deal with odors, to contribute to a more comfortable care environment from the viewpoint of nursing science. Further, we measured odors in medical facilities focusing on lavatories, and stoma clinics based on the results of the survey. We collected basic data for a qualitative and quantitative analysis of the odors determined at the measurement sites and provide details of the problems with dealing with the odors at the medical facilities.

    We were examined allostatic load(AL), arterial elasticity index(FEI), eating behavior, and psychological indicators for women in adolescence. Correlation between the AL and the FEI was observed, the blood vessels that load so hard it was suggested that chronic stress is large. In comparison by groups in exercise frequency, significant correlation of indicators and psychology of eating behavior is different in different groups often exercise. In comparison by groups classified by body mass index(BMI) and body fat, the obese in normal BMI group is unhealthy eating behavior from the standard group and the lean group, and it suggested that the chronic stress in the obese in normal BMI group was greater than the standard group and the lean group.

    The present cross-sectional study was one part of a 5-years prospective cohort study which examines the effects of psychosocial and chronic stress on the early signs of cardiovascular disease in healthy young people. We examined especially if the association between psychosocial factors and vascular health was explained by allostatic load in healthy young men. Partial correlations controlling for age were significant for finger arterial stiffness with inflammatory markers, as well as with a cumulative allostatic load index(ALI). In addition, ALI was significantly correlated with angerrelated personality and lifestyle factors involving unhealthy eating habits and physical exercise. In conclusion, arterial stiffness in young people seems to be associated with vascular pro-inflammation as well as with overall physiological dysregulation and allostatic load. These associations would be moderated by eating lifestyle and psychosocial stress.

    1.We defined a new vector index (VI) derived from finger photoplethysmogram and differentiated VI to the vascular tone and blood pressure related components. Under various mental stress conditions, VI revealed to be highly correlated with blood pressure and the orientation of VI seemed to be stable. Considering the complex calculation for estimating VI and its orientation, simple use of the normalized pulse volume (NPV ; Sawada et al., 2001) will be superior to VI.
    2.We advocated a new measure of the finger arterial elasticity derived from finger photoplethysmogram. Based on our exponential model of the pressure (P)-volume (V) relationship in the finger artery (V=a-b×exp(nP)), the parameter n is defined as finger arterial elasticity index (FEI). We developed a new estimating method for FEI, which were free from compliance and thus from blood pressure measurement. We applied to get patent by our noble estimation method.
    3.Ultrasonic imaging of the flow mediated-dilation (%FMD) in brachial artery is a confirmatory testing of human endotherial function. Kuvin et al. (2003) developed a peripheral arterial endotherial testing by finger photoplethysmogram (PWA). We improved PWA by applying NPV for flow mediated dilation of the finger artery and advocated finger arterial flow-mediated dilation ratio (FFMDR) as a simple measure of the endotherial function. Correlation between FFMDR and %FMD seemed to be reasonably high (r=0.67, n=35, young healthy male subjects).

    The first study was examined finger arterial elasticity and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity [baPWV] as well as their intercorrelations in healthy young males (N=30) and females (N=21). Finger arterial elasticity can be evaluated according to an exponential model of the pressure-volume relationship using three model parameters a, b, and n (V=a-b×exp(-nP)). These parameters were estimated by employing a finger occlusion maneuver for three ranges of transmural pressure : overall, under 40mmHg, and over 30mmHg. The difference in the finger arterial size probably caused the larger parameter a observed for males compared to females. Parameter n of females was larger than for males overall and for over 30mmHg of transmural pressure. Significant correlation coefficients between parameter n and baPWV in males were -0.395 overall and -0.406 for transmural pressure of over 30mmHg. In conclusion, the exponential model of the pressure-volume relationship was revealed to be useful for the assessment of finger arterial stiffness. The elasticity of the finger artery seemed to be larger in healthy young females than in males.
    The second study examined baPWV, body mass index [BMI] and blood pressure as well as their intercorrelations in healthy young males (N=34) and females (N=46). The BMI of males was 22.2±2.6 and that of females 20.7±2.4 (p<.01). BaPWV values were 1116.7±148.5cm/s in males and 989.0±101.9cm/s in females (p<.01). The significant correlation coefficient between baPWV and BMI was 0.511 (p<.01) in males, and between baPWV and systolic blood pressure it was 0.698 (p<.01) in males. In conclusion, there appear to be gender differences in baPWV, and the elasticity of arteries in females was higher than in males.
    The third study was examined the effects of positioning on 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure.

    Concerning the basic knowledge of nursing related accidents, it has been revealed that the attained level was clearly low both in students' basic knowledge of medical care assisting services such as medication administration and also awareness of the causative factors leading to such accidents. In addition, the results of the risk assessment using examples of care showed a notably lower level of ability to predict the risk of physical accidents such as falling down when under nursing supervision than those risks related to the medication administration process. It was noted that students paid more attention to the physical environments such as patients' physical conditions, sickrooms and wards, than to patients' mental or psychological aspects such as patients' behavior and individual values and beliefs. In addition, very few could realize by analogy the risks inherent in a care system with a shortage of care providers at nighttime. These findings suggest that it is very difficult for students to predict risks that are latent for those undergoing medical care.
    Based on the above results, a lesson plan was prepared and an experimental lesson was given. As a result, it was found that the lesson plan prepared for the graduating nursing students was effective to a certain degree. However, taking into consideration that nurses are expected to foresee any risks of nursing related accidents in a real situation, it has been determined therefore that it is necessary to design an educational method with more realistic goals.

With respect to their experiences involving ethical connotations during practical training courses, they were well aware of contradiction between safety, on one hand, and independence and self-control, on the other, of the patient and also a conflict of values between patient and *.They were confronted with the * of solving the discord at the time of deciding what son of care should be given. *, we selected a nursing case and developed a teaching program in which "restraint and nursing" would be the main issue as a typical example of contradiction and conflict.
    We prepared a case and relevant questions to which students would be * to give analytical thought. We presented a case involving an old person suffering from senile dementia and heath problems. Students were requested to think about, based upon the concept of nursing ethics, his/her problematic behaviors and recovery to health and also relations with how he/she has lived his/her life. The case was designed to shed some light on contradiction between safety and comfort on one hand, and independence and self-control, on the other and eventually guide students to a scientific * and * judgment as a solution. We organized a teaching program in which students would discuss the case in a small group. * objective was to enhance the development of a scientific perception among students through working with the case and the formation of ethics and their abilities to translate it into behaviors through group learning. We repeatedly revised the case of nursing and teaching program through our experimental teaching for three years.
    We have discovered that our teaching program using such case is significantly effective in formulating the basic concept of nursing ethics, thereby effectively enhancing ethics among new nursing students. At the same time, however, we have found that it is not sufficient to form a firm sense of sociality. It will be necessary for us to review and revise carefully the case, questions and teaching program. As a result, much more still remain to be done shout the development of the CAI learning program based upon our nursing case and education program experimented in this study.

    1. Purpose of our study :
    To design and implement an education program on nursing ethics in coordination between university and practical training facilities in order to upgrade the clinical ability of nursing students conceming ethical decision in nursing
    2. Result
    1) We surveyed junior students at nursing university conceming their experiences in ethical issues.
    * We investigated what sorts of experience sophomores in nursing university had undergone with respect to ethical issues in their rudimentary practical training classes. The result revealed that the great majority of these younger students have been faced with some ethical problems involving privacy, safety and comfort.
    2) We conducted a survey of practical training lecturers about their teaching on nursing ethics.
    * Its findings clearly show that the lecturers of practical training have been unable to sense the ethical experiences of nursing students and moreover that they have not taught them ethical problems appropriately.
    3) We prepared and implemented a program for the lecturers of practical training and nursing student with the objective of designing an teaching method that would connect university lecture to practical training.
    (1) We prepared and implemented an education program on nursing ethics for junior nursing students.
    * We designed and implemented an education program for teaching nursing ethics to sophomores. The evaluation of the program suggests that it has been effective for the conceptual formation of nursing ethics among these junior student.
    (2) We prepared and implemented an education program on nursing ethics for the lecturers of practical training.
    * We planned and implemented lectures and workshops. Subsequent to the completion of the entire course, we conducted a survey by questionnaires. Its findings demonstrate that the lectures have been effective for the formation of an ethical concept. With respect to the workshop, we are still in the process of analysis and plan to make a general revision of the program.
