Resilience and quality of life of disaster survivors six months after the Noto Peninsula earthquake
This study revealed the vulnerability of middle-aged and older women to resilience and quality of life (QoL) among survivors six months after a disaster. It also indicated that certain environmental factors, such as employment and exercise habits, were associated with higher resilience and QoL in the older population. Future longitudinal studies should examine the factors associated with resilience and QoL
Serum TNFα and IL-17A levels may predict increased depressive symptoms
BACKGROUND: Low-grade systemic inflammation may be a key player in the immune activation that has been reported for mental health deterioration. We hypothesised that elevated serum levels of inflammatory cytokines increase neuroinflammation and exacerbate depressive symptoms. METHODS: The participants were part of a cohort study for whom data was available for both 2015 and 2019. In 2015, blood samples were collected from 232 participants. Their …
Nihonjinron and depictions of racial foreigners
We examine the Japanese-language newspaper Asahi Shimbun for its reporting on Black people in Japan and the United States from 2001–2010, a time when Japan was forced to boost immigration. While a response to major labor shortages, increased diversity required Japan to rethink its relationship with racial others, among whom Blacks have long been unique in Japanese history. While the newspaper’s narratives in stories of Japan and the United States…
Relationship between Alcohol Intake and Chronic Pain with Depressive Symptoms
Although alcohol intake is associated with chronic pain (CP) and analgesia, epidemiological studies have not yet examined the factors affecting the relationship between alcohol intake and CP in detail. Therefore, the present cross-sectional study investigated the relationship between alcohol intake and CP in community-dwelling middle-aged and elderly individuals with/without depressive symptoms. Participants comprised 2223 inhabitants of Shika to…
Late Jomon male and female genome sequences from the Funadomari site in Hokkaido, Japan
The Funadomari Jomon people were hunter-gatherers living on Rebun Island, Hokkaido, Japan c. 3500–3800 years ago. In this study, we determined the high-depth and low-depth nuclear genome sequences from a Funadomari Jomon female (F23) and male (F5), respectively. We genotyped the \nnuclear DNA of F23 and determined the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class-I genotypes and the phenotypic traits. Moreover, a pathogenic mutation in the CPT1A gene was i…
The prehistoric peopling of Southeast Asia
Ancient migrations in Southeast Asia The past movements and peopling of Southeast Asia have been poorly represented in ancient DNA studies (see the Perspective by Bellwood). Lipson et al. generated sequences from people inhabiting Southeast Asia from about 1700 to 4100 years ago. Screening of more than a hundred individuals from five sites yielded ancient DNA from 18 individuals. Comparisons with present-day populations suggest two waves of mixin…
A critical examination of visualized femininity
This study investigates the visual correspondences of gender posing behaviors, specifically exhibited by female figures, between historical European painting and contemporary American photographic advertising. While utilizing Erving Goffman’s Gender Advertisements as an analytical framework, the study focuses on the visual legacy of gender ritualization that is salient in contemporary mass media, proposing five semiotic codes to concretely analyz…

The Caucasianization of Jesus
This essay explores the racial representation of Jesus Christ by Hollywood and the resulting ideological implications. Because historical documentation lacks depictions of Christ's phenotype, filmmakers can freely conceptualize his physical appearance. Hollywood blockbusters, however, have predominantly depicted Jesus as a white man, his most popular American conception. Hollywood consequently contributes to an active transformation process—the C…
A “Model” Minority
The model minority began as an ideology pitting Japanese Americans against African Americans, using the former's economic success to deflect assertions of the persistence of race. In stressing enmity, research on black attitudes toward Asian Americans points to the utility of the myth in segmenting the two communities. The thrust of reporting on Japanese America in thirty seven black newspapers from 2000 to 2010 shows something different. Two fra…
Strategic solidarity
By the twentieth century, Black intellectuals envisioned Japan as a beacon of their own possibilities. Japanese perceptions of this bond are typically implicitly assumed in most research on the subject. In this essay we argue that Japan saw Black America as a symbol of strategic not substantive solidarity. With its entrance onto the international scene in the nineteenth century, Japan encountered an international racial hierarchy, and struggled i…
Fatal miscommunication
This paper critically analyzes the use of English in the field of aviation. International air traffic has played an increasingly important role in recent globalization, which stresses the massive movement of people. Many pilots and air-traffic controllers having a variety of Englishes, in terms of proficiency and local influence, share this communicative context. Proper use of phraseologic English is a crucial prerequisite for them to participate…
