Title Alternative RADON CONTENT OF HOT SPRINGS IN TOTTORI PREFECTURE, JAPAN
FullText URL 014_001_014.pdf
Author Oshima, Yoshio| Yamada, Naoharu| Mifune, Masaaki|
Abstract 1. Radon content of 166 thermal waters in IWAI, TOTTORI YOSHIOKA, HAMAMURA, TOGO, SEKIGANE, MISASA, and KAlKE Hot Springs was measured by I. M. Fontactoscope in the years 1950-1951. Of which 66 samples showed a radon content over 30×10(-10) curie units per liter. Namely, 50 springs in Misasa, 6 in Sekigane, 9 in Hamamura, and one in Togo belonged to the radioactive spring in the definition by Ministry of Social Welfare. The highest Radon content (1150×10(10) curie units per liter) was recorded in Hisuino-Yu in Misasa, where five springs had a radon content over 360×10(-10) curie units per liter. 2. No marked difference was proved between the results obtained this time and the data in the former reports concerning the radon content of these thermal springs. 3. Radon content proved higher in the springs which issue from granite than in the springs of other districts. No definite relation was proved between the radon content and water temperature. The radon content was generally high in simple thermals or in weak sodium chloride springs, low in sulfated springs and in saline springs which had a comparatively high sulfate content.

Title Alternative THE CLINICAL STUDIES OF RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS (I)
FullText URL 016_035_048.pdf
Author Morinaga, Hiroshi|
Abstract The value of spa treatment of rheumatic disease is an established feature of medical management based on experiences for many centuries. The author has been practising the balneotherapy of rheumatic diseases at Misasa Spa for several years, and has found this therapy efficacious in many cases in relieving the anemia that accompanies rheumatoid arthritis. For this reason, the author is investigating the metabolism of iron in rheumatic anemia, which is expected to occur in the course of the spa treatment. In this report, the results of clinical examinations of 24 patients with rheumatoid arthritis, of the type (2. 2. 2.) Polyarthritis systemica chronica (in Prof. Kodama's classification of arthritis), are described. I. Some observations of anemia in rheumatoid arthritis 1. The peripheral blood The number of erythrocytes is 266×10(4)~455×10(4)/c. mm. (average: (381±32)×10(4)/c. mm.), Hb-content : 55~90% (average : 76±5.8%), and the color index is about 1.0. The anemia of rheumatic disease treated is mostly normochromic. The white blood count is between 3240 and 13300/c. mm. (average: 6421±955/c. mm. ), and the number of the leucocytes in 80% of the cases ranges within the normal limits. Eosinophilia is observed in 15% of the cases. 2. Anemia-producing substance in the serum of rheumatoid arthritis When serum from rheumatoid arthritis patients was injected into rabbits, the number of erythrocytes and the hemoglobin -content of the rabbits was found to decrease markedly for 2~6hours after the injection. But no such effect was observed when the serum of healthy subjects was injected. From this, the author presumes the presence of an anemia-producing substance in the serum of rheumatoid arthritis. The nature of this substance in now under investigation. II. Clinical-biochemical studies 3. Gastric acidity of rheumatic patients Of 7 cases examined, anacidity of gastric juice was observed in 2 cases, subacidity in other 2 cases and normacidity in the remaining 3 cases. Thus, a decrease in the gastric acidity was found to occur in 57% of the cases. 4. Takata-serum-test and sedimentation rate It is said that the sedimentation rate and the Weltmann-reaction are very sensitive indicators of the extent of the activity of rheumatic disease. The Takata-serum-test was applied in 18 cases and was found to give positive results in 10 cases (55%). The sedimentation rate was found to increase in 17 of 20 cases (85%). 5. Blood uric acid As is well known, the concentration of uric acid is abnormally high in the blood of patients with gout; while, according to the literature, the blood uric acid levels of patients with rheumatoid arthritis range within the normal limits. The author, using the method of Benedict, obtained the following results for blood uric acid in 14 normal subjects in fasting state: Range - 2.30~3.47mg./dl. , 5% rejection limit -- 1.97~3.68mg./dl. In 5 of 7 cases of rheumatoid arthritis, the blood uric acid levels were shown to be above the upper limit of the normal range, but the concentrations of blood uric acid of non-rheumatic joint diseases and neuralgias were mostly within the normal range. 6. Blood sugar The fasting blood sugar levels of rheumatoid patients ranged from 82 to 1l0mg./dl. (average : 100mg./dl.), higher than the levels of healthy subjects (78~108mg./dl., average : 90mg./dl.). The intravenously injected glucose load test was applied to 8 rheumatoid patients. A solution of 40 ml. of 20% glucose was injected into a fasting subject for 2 minutes. Blood samples were taken before the injection, 3 minutes after the injection, and at each subsequent 10 minute-interval for 70 minutes. The glucose tolerance curves in 5 of these cases were found to be out of the normal range. It is to be noticed that the average blood sugar for rheumatoid arthritis is similar to the curve for liver disease. 7. Serum alkaline phosphatase activity and serum phosphorus The method of Taussky-Shorr was used for the determination of the level of alkaline phosphatase activity and inorganic phosphate in the serum. The alkaline phosphatase activity of 11 normal individuals ranged from 1.4 to 6.4 Shinowara-Jones-Rheinhart units/dl. (5% rejection limit), while in 4 of 8 cases of rheumatoid arthritis, it was of abnormally high levels. The concentration of inorganic phosphate in the serum of 12 normal subjects ranged from 2.9 to 5.0mg. /dl. (5% rejection limit), while in 3 cases of rheumatoid patients, it showed higher levels than normal. 8. Total cholesterol in serum The total cholesterol in the serum of fasting normal individuals was measured by Bloor's method, and the concentration was found to range from 124 to 188mg./dl. (rejection limit of 5% level of significance), and the total cholesterol in the serum of rheumatoid arthritis to be abnormally high in concentration in 6 of 7 cases. The liver function was evaluated by the Takata-serum-test, the test of fasting blood sugar levels, the glucose load test, and the test of serum alkaline phosphatase activity; and from this the hepatic dysfunction was found to occur in rheumatoid arthritis patients in about 50% of the cases examined. Disturbances in the protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism were also found to occur. The above-mentioned findings indicate that rheumatoid arthritis is not only a disease of the joints, but also a general and systemic illness. Attention must accordingly be given to the general condition of the patient in the treatment of rheumatic disease.

Title Alternative SEASONAL VARIATION OF GASTRIC ACIDITY
FullText URL pitsr_016_031_034.pdf
Author Morinaga, Hiroshi|
Abstract Since, in Japan situated in the temperate zone, climatic change through the four seasons of a year is regular, it is expected that there the physiological reactions of the human body may vary regularly in accordance with the climatic change. In fact, we experience that the attacks of diseases and their conditions are in close connection with the changes of the seasons. The author investigated the effect of the seasons upon the human gastric acidity, by means of the coffein-test, in 580 cases with gastrointestinal disorders, at the Misasa Branch Hospital of Okayama University, Misasa Spa in Tottori Prefecture, in 1946~1946. Hyperacidity was verified in 194 (33%) of 580 cases, normacidity in 134 (23%), anacidity in 138 (24%) and hypacidity in 114 (20%). The percentage of hyperacidity increases in winter (41%), decreases in spring (32%) and in summer (28%), and increases again in autumn (34%). The cases of anacidity decrease in winter and spring, but increase in summer. In chi-square test, the season and the acidity of gastric juice were taken as factors of variation. The chi-square was computed with the result: Pr {X(3)=14.013<16.919} =5%, so it cannot be asserted that the seasonal changes effect the acidity of gastric juice. But if Comparison is made between summer and winter with respect to the anacidity-hypacidity vs. the hyperacidity, the author: obtains Pr {X(2)=6.06> 5.412} =2%. It is thus verified that the cases of hyperacidity predominate over those of anacidity-hypacidity in winter, while the relation is reverse in summer. As was mentioned above, the tendency is obvious that the acidity of gastric juice decreases in summer and increases in winter. It was found that there is a regular seasonal variation in gastric acidity.

Title Alternative ANEMIA-PRODUCING SUBSTANCE IN RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS
FullText URL pitsr_016_019_030.pdf
Author Kishida, Senzo|
Abstract The anemia that usually accompanies rheumatoid arthritis has been thought to be caused by an infection of unknown etiology. The author found from his experiment that a temporary anemia is caused in rabbits by the injection of the serum of patients with rheumatoid arthritis into them, but no such effect by the injection of the serum of healthy subjects. The author presumes the existance of an anemia-producing substance in the serum of the rheumatoid arthritis. The nature of this substance is now under investigation.

Title Alternative REPORT OF THE CHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF MISASA HOT SPRINGS, TOTTORI PREFECTURE
FullText URL 016_001_018.pdf
Author Oshima, Yoshio| Mifune, Masaaki| Yamada, Naoharu| Ueyama, Akiko|
Abstract The water samples of 55 springs of Misasa were analysed in the years 1950~1951. The temperatures of the waters ranged from 44° to 85° C. Radon content ranged from 34.1 to 2360×10(-10) curies per liter. pH 6.2~7.5. Evaporation residue: 534~1940 mg/kg. K(+) :10.4~47.3mg/kg. Na(+) : 140.4~574mg/kg. Ca(2+) : 7.56~49.06mg/kg. Mg(2+) : 0.11~15.3mg/kg.. Fe(2+) : 0.10~0.67mg/kg. Cl(-) : 138~854mg/kg. SO(4)(2-) : 29.2~187mg/kg. HCO(3)(-) : 74.8~370mg/kg. HBO(2)(-) : 1.80~19.6mg/kg. S(2)O(3)(2-) : o.62~3.69mg/kg. Radon sources seem to exist at shallow places under the ground and the radon in the thermal wacer is supposed to have been derive partly from the ground water which also contains considerable amount of radon. A close linear correlation (r=0.751) was proved between the sulfate and the chloride ion contents.

Title Alternative OUR EXPERIENCES OF INTRAARTICULAR HYDROCORTISONE INJECTION AND SPA TREATMENT FOR RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS AND ARTHROSISDEFORMANS
FullText URL 017_019_032.pdf
Author Nakahara, Yasuhiro| Izumi, Tomokuni|
Abstract 1. We classified 89 cases of rheumatoid arthritis and arthrosis deformans according to Prof. T. Kodama's criteria as follows: 33 cases of (222) polyarthritis systemica (37%), 15 cases of (221) polyarthritis non systemica (16.8%) 22 cases of (111) monoarthrosis non systemica (24%), and others. 2. We analysed their symptoms following the criteria recommended by the New York Rheumatism Association and Prof. T. Kodama. In many cases of (222), their local and general symptoms were found to belong to Class III or IV, and in many cases of (111) and (221), to Class I or II. This shows that (222), here treated, was severer than (111) and (221) in both local and general conditions. The hepatic disorder and anemia were found to occur in patients with (222). 3. We treated these 89 cases chiefly by spa therapy and intraarticular injection of hydrocortisune, and evaluated the results by the criteria recommended by N. Y. R. A. and Prot. T. Kodama. Each of these treatments was more effective on (111), (121), and (221) than on (222). In all cases, the combined treatment with the said two measures was more efficacious than the separate treatment with each of the two. 4. The effects of the intraarticular hydrocortisone injections, 686 in total and mostly into knee joints, were examined. The most efficacious of these were obtained when the injection was made into fingers, toes or hip joints. In our experiences, the post-injection flare ups and the adverse effects of the treatments were observed in 2.8% of the cases treated, but they lasted only for a few days. 5. Of five cases of (222), where the combined treatment of hydrocortisone intraarticular injection and spa therapy was given for 5-14 months, detailed descriptions are given. By this treatment the physical abilities in joints of patients were improved remarkably and their general conditions were ameliorated gradually without any adverse effects.

Author Tanaka, Yosinori| Hosokawa, Ryukai|
Abstract 1. The chief complaints of the patients were lower abdominal pain (33%), menstrual disorder (23%), infertility (20%), etc. 2. As disease, adnexitis (17%), retroflexio uteri (23%), vaginitis (13%), etc. were noted. 3. As balneotherapy they took thermal bath on an average 4 times a day for three weeks in Misasa radioactive spa. 4. Various "Fäder-reaktionen" were noted on 70% of the patients. They were fatigue (33%), dulling of the appetite (23%), small uterine bleeding (20%), lower abdomimal pain (17%), fever (11%), vaginal discharge (7%), etc. 5. The above-mentioned small uterine bleeding occured about 7 th day of the cure, and continued for 2 days on an average. In most cases, it was accompanied by the lower abdominal pain. 6. A temporary change of menstrual cycles after the cure was noted in 30% of the patients. 7. In 62% of the cases treated. the spa treatment gave curative effects paticularly on various pains and vegetative disharmony, but none on infertility.

FullText URL pitsr_017_008_012.pdf
Author Morinaga, Hiroshi|
Abstract The author investigated the effect of the internal use of thermal water of Yumura (weak alkaline spring, Hyogo Prefecture) and Musashi (weak common salt spring, Fukuoka Prefecture) Springs upon the alimentary hyperglycemia in rabbits. Sixty ml. of spring water, and of plain water as control, with 10% glucose in solution was administered to rabbits by stomach tube, and the blood sugar level was determined before and 1/2, 1, 2 and 3 hours after the administration. In all cases, the thermal water was revealed to inhibit the alimentary hyperglycemia significantly by comparing the results obtained with the thermal water and those with the plain water control.

Title Alternative o-PHENANTHROLINE METHOD APPLIED TO THE DETERMINATION OF IRON IN NATURAL WATERS
FullText URL pitsr_017_001_007.pdf
Author Tanaka, Shigeo|
Abstract The o-phenanthroline method was tested as to its applicability to the separate determination of iron in natural water: ionic ferrous iron, reducible iron, snd colloidally dispersed iron. In connection with this, the results of the following experiments are given in this paper. 1. Determination of the absorption curve of o-phenanthroline ferrous complex. (Figure 1.) 2. Construction of the calibration curve for a Purfrich's photometer with filter S 50, 15 cm cuvettes. (Figure 2.) 3. Examination of the effects of coexisting anions on the determination of iron by the method of three way layout. (Table 1., Table 2.) 4. Trial determinations of iron in three different states in solution. (Table 3., Table 4. ) 5. Test of the applicability of this method to the determination of ionic ferrous iron and reducible iron in thermal water. (Table 5., Table 6.) From the above, it was revealed that ionic ferrous iron and reducible iron in natural water are separately determinable with sufficient accuracy by the o-phenanthroline method, and that ionic iron and colloidally dispersed iron are also separately determinable, when the dispersed iron is present in amount more than 1.3% of the total iron.
