| Title Alternative | STUDIES ON THE EFFECTS BY PUMPING SUCTION OF HOT-SPRING |
| FullText URL | 007_008_011.pdf |
| Author | Umemoto, Shunji| |
| Abstract | At Sekigane Hot-Spring, Tottori, Japan, where three hot-springs place side by side, the auther measured the variation of spring temperature, pH, Cl,- HCO(3)- and SO (4)-- content and the amount of flow, during and after, pumping suction of one hot-spring. About the variation of other hot-spring, immediately after the commencement of suction, the content of HCO(3)- decreased and that of Cl- and SO(4)-- increased. Then the increase of HCO(3)- content and the decrease of Cl- and SO(4)--contents appeared with the lapse of time. After stopping the suction, these changes in contents were reversed agaln, that is, the decrease of HCO(3)- and the increage of Cl- and SO(4)-- were observed. Immediately after the second suction was begun, HCO(3)- increased and Cl- and SO(4)-- decreased rapidly. The amount of flow increased only when the pumping suction stopped. At the hot-spring which was pumped, HCO(3)- and SO(4)-- contents decreased and the slight increase was observed in Cl- content. Of cource, only when the suction stopped, the amount of flow decreased. But at these hot-springs, the ratio of Cl-/SO(4)-- has always constant value, about 1.05. These results show that these three hot-springs belong to the same line and difference was observed only in the contamination with ground-watres. |

| Title Alternative | FLUORINE CONTENT OF THERMAL WATERS IN TOTTORI PREFECTURE AND ITS RELATION TO MOTTLED TOOTH AND GOITER (2nd REPORT) |
| FullText URL | 007_012_014.pdf |
| Author | Onda, Sakue| |
| Abstract | The fluorine content of 67 samples of mineral waters in Misasa, Asozu, Togo, Hamamura, and Iwai Hot Springs was investigated by Zirconium-Alizarine Sulfonate method. It ranged from 1.5 to 15 mg. per liter, 3-6mg. per liter in the majority. Most of the river and well waters in the same districts contained no measurable amount of fluorifle． In Misasa, Asozu, Togo and Hamamura Hot Springs 68-83 per cent of the schoolchildren who take thermal waters habitually as drinking water suffer from mottled tooth. On the contrary 2-10 per cent of the schoolchildren who do not drink thermal waters habitually showed mottled tooth. In Iwai no inhabitant uses thermal water as drinking water, so that the incidence of mottled tooth among them was only 2.8 per cent. Concerning the incidence of struma in the schoolchildren no relationship was proved between the occurrence of mottled tooth or fluorine content of thermal waters. |

| Title Alternative | CHEMICAL STUDIES ON MISASA HOT SPRING (18) A PYRITE-POLYSULFIDE THEORY OF SULFUR SPRING |
| FullText URL | 007_015_019.pdf |
| Author | Ashizawa, Takashi| |
| Abstract | In Misasa there occur only few weak sulfur springs, their maximum hydrogen sulfide content being about 5mg per liter. The ground of Misasa consists of granite and there is no active volcano in the vicinity. So the author tried to explain the mechanism of the occurrence of sulfur spring in Misasa by a reaction of the primarily alkaline thermal water upon pyrite. Namely: XFeS(2) + 3Na(2)C(O)3 = 2Na(2)S(1-5) + Na(2)S(2)O(3) + 3CO(2) + XFeS(1-2) Thiosulfate in sulfur spring waters should not be taken for a secondary product from hydrogen sulfide as accepted generally, but is most probably a primary product to the latter. The phenomenon of white turbidity in sulfur spring is caused mainly by the sulfur liberated from the polysulfide decomposed by the change in pH and temperture of thermal waters and not by the sulfur liberated from the oxidation of hydrogen sulfide. Some experimental data were shown to support the theory． |

| Author | Oshima, Yoshio| Yokota, Takeo| |
| Abstract | After the internal use of daily 3 grams of crude chondroitin sulfate cholinesterase activity of serum decreased and elimination of glycuronic acid in urine increased, but no definite change in serum mucoprotein level was observed. Mucoprotein in serum showed a positive linear correlation to erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and chondroitin sulfate promoted the e.s.r. in vitro and in vivo. Chondroitin sulfate showed no marked influence on phagocytosis of human leucocytes in vitro, but it promoted the production of agglutinin in rabbits by subcutaneous injection． |

| Title Alternative | EFFECTS OF RADIO-ACTIVE THERMAL BATH ON OXIDATION- REDUCTION SYSTEM |
| FullText URL | 007_035_081.pdf |
| Author | Sotozono, Masazumi| |
| Abstract | The author proved that consumption of iodate by proteinfree serum filtrate, an index of total reductive substance in serum filtrate, was increased after a radioactive thermal bath of Misasa (400-700×10(-10) Curie units Rn per liter), at a temperature of 40°～45℃ for five minutes. Reduced glutathion in blood showed little change, but oxidized and total glutathion tend to rise and decreased only temporarily. Reduced ascorbic acid in blood and urine increased after the radioactive thermal bath, but the oxidized and total ascorbic acid decreased after a temporal increase. After the thermal. bath a tendency of fall in reduced and oxidized ascorbic acid content was observed in liver, lung, and adrenal glands, and a tendency of rise was shown in kidney, spleen, skin and musclein albino rats. By a series of daily successive thermal baths a fall in ascorbic acid content was observed in most of the organs examined in the first week (on the fourth day) and then a reactive increase was shown during the second week. |

| Title Alternative | STUDIES ON THE CHLORIDE AND SULFATE CONTENT OF WELL WATERS AND THE AMOUNTS OF CHLORIDE AND SULFATE FIXED TO SOIL IN THE MINERAL SPRING DISTRICTS (IX) SAGINOYU HOT SPRINGS, SHIMANE PREFECTURE, JAPAN. |
| FullText URL | 015_001_005.pdf |
| Author | Umemoto, Shunji| Tanaka, Shigeo| |
| Abstract | At Saginoyu Hot Springs same experiments as those described in previous reports were carried out. Water temperature of Springs is about 50℃. and main constituents dissolved in spring water are calcium sulfate and sodium chloride, its total salt content being 1.5g./ℓ.. Experimental results obtained are shown in the annexed table and map. The results obtained may be discussed in two ways: First, the area marked with ※ is regarded as the spring zone, and a comparison is made by Cochran and Cox's method between this zone and the outside area as to the average contents of chloride and sulfate in well Water, the average water temperatures of well water and the average amounts of chloride and sulfate fixed to soil. The differences in averages of the chloride and sulfate content of well water are significant, while that in average water temperatures is not significant. The differences in the average amounts of chloride and sulfate fixed to soil are not significant. However, the difference in the average amounts of chloride fixed to soi1 is nearly same as that for the 5 % level, and it is seen that the average amount of chloride fixed to soil tends to be higher in the spring zone than in the outside area. Second, the area marked with t is regarded as the spring zone, and a comparison is made in the same way as the above. The differences in the averages of the chloride and sulfate contents and water temperatures of well waters, all being higher in the spring zone, are significant. The differences in average amounts of chloride and Sdlfate fixed to soil are not significant. However, since these differences are nearly same as that for the 5 % level, the average amounts of chloride and sulfate fixed to soil tend to be higher in the spring zone than in the outside area. As the existence of sources which would supply the chloride, sulfate and heat to the water and soil is impossible, the above differences may be due to effects of thermal springs. Since the spring zone may be defined as the zone effected by mineral springs, it is more appropriate to follow the second of the above two ways than to follow the first, and to regard the area marked with t as the spring zone. Then, the differences between the spring zone and the outside area are revealed more remarkably than otherwise. It is an interesing fact that the samples Nos. 3-6, though collected from the spots very near to the springs, do not belong to the spring zone. |

| FullText URL | 015_006_010.pdf |
| Author | Umemoto, Shunji| |
| Abstract | At Matsuzaki, Togo and Asozu Hot Springs and at Hamamura and Kachimi Hot Springs, the amounts of chloride and sulfate fixed to soil were determined with samples which were colleted from various parts of the thermal spring zone and its outside area, more than ten days after rainfall, so as to eliminate its possible effect. The amounts of sulfate were determined by terbidimetry with BaCl(2) solution and those of chloride were determined by mercuric thiocyanate method. In the average amounts of chloride and sulfate, no differences were found between the samples collected from the thermal spring zone and its outside area. The same fact was described in the 5th and 8th reports, but errorneously ascribed to an effect of rainfall. From the present study it has been ascertained that the fact is independent of rainfall. |

| Title Alternative | EFFECT OF WATER LEVEL OF RIVER ON MINERAL SPRING (Continued) |
| FullText URL | 015_011_015.pdf |
| Author | Umemoto, Shunji| |
| Abstract | From February to September 1954, observations were made of the rates of flow and the water temperatures at a spring called "Tanaka-no-Yu", Misasa Hot Springs, Tottori Prefecture. Simultaneously with these observations, the water level of the River Misasa and that of an irrigation stream nearby were also determined. The procedures for the observations were the same as in the previous report. Comparing the results here obtaind wite those previously obtaind, and referring to the conclusions in the previous report, the author has been led to the following conclusions. From the observations in the period from February to September, 1954, as from those in the period from June, 1953 to January, 1954, a positive correlation was found between the rate of flow and the water teperature, the correlarion coefficient being 0.828 (highly significant). The analsis of variance of the obseryed results showed that the rate of flow and the water temperature appear to be affected by the water levels of the River and of the irrigation stream, and also by their interaction. This conclusion supports what was deduced in the previous report. The average water levels of the River and of the irrigation stream, the average rates of flow and the average water temperatures, for the period from June to September in 1953, were compared with those for the period from June to September in 1954. The differences in the average water levels of the River, the average rates of flow and the average water temperatures are significant; while that in average water levels of the stream is not significant. From this it may be concluded that the increase in the rate of flow and the rise of the water temperature were resulted from the upheaval of the water level of the River, which followed the construction of a dam there. |

| Abstract | Es ist bekannt, dass die Thermalbader den Einfluss auf die vegetativen Nervenfunktionen haben. Anderseits sind die Cholinesterase Aktivitat von Gehirn und die Nervenfunktionen eng miteinander verbunden. Mehrere Arbeiten stellt die Veranderungen der Cholinesterase von Serum bei Thermalbad fest, aber diese von Gehirn wird kaum untersucht. Daher um Veranderungen der Zentralnervenfunktionen durch dem Thermalbad zu forschen, wurde die Cholinesterase Aktivitat von Gehirn von Ratten bestimmt, dabei wurde diese von Serum und Leber auch bestimmt. Die mannliche Ratten wurden unmittelbar, oder 30. Minute, oder 60. Minute nach dem Bade (42℃, 10 Minuten)durch Dekapitation getotet, dann wurden Endhirn, Zwischenhirn, Leber und Serum durch Hesterinsche Methode (Abb. 1～3) untersucht, und wurden mit Kontrolltieren (Tabelle 1.) verglichen. Nach Hesterinsche Methode stellt die Cholinesterase Aktivitat sich als Acetylcholingewicht (mg), das Gewebe 0.1g oder Serum 0.1cc in 30 Minuten zersetzen kann. Art dse Bades- 1.

Cholinesterase von Gehirn gehort zu spezifischer Cholinesterase, die physiologisch grosse Rolle spielt, gegen Leber, Serum, und zwar die Veranderungen in Gehirn nach dem Bade sind viel grosser als in Leber und Serum. Die Zuhahme von Cholinesterase in Gehirn bedeutet den gesteigerten Acetylcholin Stoffwechsel, d.h. erhohte Gehirntatigkeit. Also sind oben genannte Erscheinungen reich an Bedeutng bei Badekur. |

| Title Alternative | RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS AND THORN'S TEST |
| FullText URL | 015_029_033.pdf |
| Author | Izumi, Tomokuni| |
| Abstract | In a course of balneotherapy of rheumatoid arthritis, there was no proper standard to judge the therapeutic effect. In this circumstance, Thorn's test and a measurement of red cell sedimentation rate were applied to ten patients with rheumatoid arthritis before and after balneotherpy, and it was found that, although patients before therapy showed a low value of Thorn's test and a faster rate of red cell sedimentation, after released from various symptoms by balneotherapy they had a higher value of Thorn's test and a slower rate of red cell sedimentation. Therefore, these two tests above described may be used as a standard for a judgement of the effect of balneotherapy to patients with rheumatoid arthritis. |

| Title Alternative | STUDIES ON BALNEOTHERAPY OF DIABETES MELLITUS (Ⅰ). EFFECT OF THE RADIOACTIVE THERMAL BATH UPON THE CARBOHYDRATE METABOLISM AND THE LEUCOCYTE PICTURE IN ALLOXAN-DIABETIC RABBITS. |
| FullText URL | 015_034_047.pdf |
| Author | Morinaga, Hiroshi| |
| Abstract | The author investigated the effect of the radioactive thermal bath upon the carbohydrate metabolism and the leucocyte picture in alloxan-diabetic rabbits. 1. The author injected 100-200 mg. of alloxan per kg. of body weight intravenously into normal rabbits and produced alloxan diabetes. The triphasic blood sugar response to the injection of alloxan is illustrated in Table 1. and Fig. 1. About a week after the injection of alloxan, the fasting blood sugar values ranged 127 to 331 mg./dl. (Table 3.). 2. In this experiment the alloxan-diabetic rabbits were put in radioactive hot spring and plain water bath, 42-44℃. in temperature. The radioactive hot springs put in use are "Hisui-no-Yu" and "Kenkyusho-sen" (the Loboratory-Spring), both in Misasa Spa, the chemical compositions of which are given in Table 2. 3. In any case, the blood sugar level rose temporarily after the thermal baths for 5 minutes, but the 24-hour blood sugar value after taking a bath was lower in "Hisui-no-Yu" (Rn: 300-400 Mache units) than in "Kenkyusho-sen" (Rn: 10-30 Mache units) (Table 3 and Fig. 2). 4. The glucose tolerance was found to be abnormal in alloxan-diabetic rabbits even 3 months after the injection of alloxan, but this abnormal carbohydrate metabolism tended to become normal by the radioactive thermal bath (Table 5, 6 and Fig. 3, 5.). 5. The radioactive thermal bath in "Hisui-no-Yu" caused increase of leucocyte counts of alloxan-diabetic rabbits more remarkably than the bath in "Kenkyusho-sen" (Table 8. and Fig. 6). |

| Title Alternative | STUDIES ON BALNEOTHERAPY OF DIABETES MELLITUS (Ⅱ). EFFECT OF INTERNAL USE OF GERO HOT SPRING ON THE ALIMENTARY HYPERGLYCEMIA IN ALLOXAN-DIABETIC RABBITS |
| FullText URL | 015_048_052.pdf |
| Author | Morinaga, Hiroshi| |
| Abstract | The author investigated the effect of the internal use of the hot spring water of Gero (Gifu Prefecture, Japan), which contained Cl' 167 mg./L., HCO(3)' 66.0 mg./L. and titrated sulphur 0.6 mg./L. (pH: 6.2) at the time of this experiment, upon the alimentary hyperglycemia in alloxan－diabetic rabbits. 1. The author injected alloxan of 150 mg. per kg. of body weight intravenously into normal rabbits and performed the experiment 5～6 weeks after the injection. At the time of the experiment, the fasting blood sugar levels of alloxan-diabetic rabbits ranged from 107 to 211 mg./dl. (170 mg./dl. on the average). 2. Thirty ml. of 10% glucose solution in thermal water or in plain water per kg. of body weight was administered to the rabbits by stomach tube, and blood sugar level was determined before and 1/2, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 hours after the administration. The rejection interval (5%) of the glucose tolerance in 17 normal rabbits is shown in Fig. Ⅰ. Glucose tolerance curves of these alloxan-diabetic rabbits were out of the limit of the normal range. 3. Gero Hot Spring water had no inhibitory action upon the alimentary hyperglycemia of alloxan-diabetic rabbits. |

| FullText URL | pitsr_056_001_004.pdf |
| Author | Morinaga, Hiroshi| Mifune, Masaaki| Furuno, Katsuaki| |
| Abstract | Misasa Spa is one of the most highly radioactive hot springs in Japan, the waters of which contain mainly (222)Rn (437±132 Bq/liter). Radon contents of indoor air of private houses and health resort hotels (built of wood) at Misasa Spa range from 18.5 to 55.5 mBq/liter and 22.2 to 129.5 mBq/liter, respectively. Radon contents in the air of facilities using spring waters at Misasa Branch Hospital of Okayama University were measured to be ; bathroom 807±78 mBq/liter; Hubbardtank bathroom 5306±2568 mBq/liter ; the drinking hall 1491±178 mBq/liter. The environmental and dose rate inside private houses has been measured to be 14.0±1.8 μR/h. Chromosome aberrations (dicentrics) in the peripheral blood lymphocytes of residents of Misasa Spa were investigated in 14 persons; the mean value of aberration frequencies were 0.21%. |

| Author | Komoto, Junko| Yasumoto, Ikuko| |
| Abstract | An 18 years old girl, who developed high fever following sore throat without demonstrable organic findings, was diagnosed as having psychogenic fever. Symptom was apparently related to her psychological conflicts in an unconscious pursuit of both the primary gain (avoidance to take examination for college) and the secondary gain (satisfaction for dependancy-need). Initiation, exacerbation and termination of fever were not under voluntary control but produced by self-induced hypnosis. Details of her hypnotic process together with her insight into the condition after psychotherapy were described as clinical data. |

| Title Alternative | An application of the artificial CO(2) bath for enuresis |
| FullText URL | pitsr_056_009_011.pdf |
| Author | Komoto, Junko| Komoto, Yoshiaki| |
| Abstract | The artificial CO(2) bath was prescribed for two enuretic boys with bladder-sensitive or parasympaticotonic type. A tablet of 50 g, made from sodium bicarbonate and succinic acid, was put in a bath-tub of 150-200 L at 40℃. Each patient was recommended to take a bath with his mother longer than ten minutes, and to mark the presence or the absence of enuresis every day. Outcome results of case 1 on CO(2) bath is shown in tabel 1 and results of case 2 on CO(2) bath is shown in table 3. Both two cases became free from enuresis 7-10 days after the initiation of the artificial CO(2) bathing. Etiological mechanisms of enuresis seem to be multi-factorious, with underlining networks of central- and autonomous nerve systems for the control of sleep and bladder. It is suspected that some improvement of peripheral circulation by CO(2)-bathing leading to keep the body warm may be one of the contributing factors which prolong the intervals of urination, resulting in autonomous normalization, at least, for the cases of bladder-sensitive enuresis, Further case studies are needed to support this assumption. |

| Abstract | Using Na(2)SO(4) labelled with S(35) transition of sulfate ion into the body across the skin was investigated soon after the bath in sodium sulfate solution at varying conditions. Mice were used as test animal. Percutaneous absorption of sulfate ion proved to be promoted at high bath temperature (45℃) than at indifferent temperature(37℃). stronger by the bath of longer duration (30min.) than by the bath of shorter duration (10min.), increased after repeated baths than after a single bath. It was accelerated by making a burn to the skin of the bathed animals. Layton and Dziewiatkowski proved that the parenterally administered sulfate ion was partly fixed in the connective tissue as chondroitin sulfate. The author had proved that chondroitin sulfate relieves pain, increases peripheral circulation and when administered parenterally promotes production of immune bodies. In Japan natural and artificial Glauber's salt spring bath are known to have a beneficial effect on wound healing, but no satisfactory explanation was given till today. Lith reported that a hypertonic solution of sodium sulfate promoten wound cure by external application and Seki showed that subcutaneous connective tissue of mice was stimulated by the bath in sodium sulfate spring. And so the abovementioned author's data seem to throw some light on solving the problem. |
