After an earthquake, it is important to judge the safety of buildings and make efficient recovery plan. For that, necessary know quantitatively damage level limit buildings. An evaluation method residual seismic capacity described in Japanese Standard for Post-earthquake Damage Level Classification Buildings; however, does not consider difference deformation members such as walls frames (column...

The simultaneous control of the hindlimb paw-shake response and hindlimb walking at slow treadmill speeds (0.2-0.4 m/s) was examined in adult cats spinalized at the T12 level, 3-6 mo earlier. Paw shaking was elicited by either 1) application of adhesive tape or 2) water to the right hindpaw. To assess intralimb and interlimb coordination of the combined behaviors, activity from selected flexor ...

INTRODUCTION Obesity and Type 2 diabetes may be controlled by foods capable of modulating food intake and blood glucose. OBJECTIVES We investigated whether the addition of food sources of fiber or phaseolamin to shakes can control food intake and reduce postprandial glycemia. METHODS This was a randomized, single blind, crossover design study (food intake: n=22; glycemia: n=10). Five liquid...

BACKGROUND Hyaline membrane disease (HMD) has remained a common neonatal problem and is a cause of morbidity in infants. The shake test can be used to assess whether surfactant is present in the infant's lungs at birth. OBJECTIVE The goal of this study was to determine the usefulness and accuracy of gastric aspirate shake test for the diagnosis of two HMD. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a d...
