In lattice QCD with Wilson-type quarks, the chiral symmetry is explicitly broken by the Wilson term on finite lattices. Though the symmetry is guaranteed to recover in the continuum limit, a series of non-trivial procedures are required to recover the correct renormalized theory in the continuum limit. Recently, a new use of the gradient flow technique was proposed, in which correctly renormalized quantities are evaluated in the vanishing flow-time limit. This enables us to directly study the

... iral condensate and its susceptibility with Wilson-type quarks. Extending our previous study of the chiral condensate and its disconnected susceptibility in (2+1)-flavor QCD at a heavy u, d quark mass (m_π/m_ρ≃0.63) and approximately physical s quark mass, we compute the connected contributions to the chiral susceptibility in the temperature range of 178--348 MeV on a fine lattice with a≃0.07 fm.

We calculate the PCAC mass for (2+1) flavor full QCD with Wilson-type quarks. We adopt the Small Flow-time eXpansion (SFtX) method based on the gradient flow which provides us a general way to compute correctly renormalized observables even if the relevant symmetries for the observable are broken explicitly due to the lattice regularization, such as the Poincáre and chiral symmetries. Our calculation is performed on heavy u, d quarks mass (m_π/m_ρ≃0.63) and approximately physical s quark mass

In this paper, we focus on examination results when examinees selectively skip examinations, to compare the difficulty levels of these examinations. We call the resultant data 'selectively omitted examination data' Examples of this type of examination are university entrance examinations, certification examinations, and the outcome of students' job-hunting activities. We can learn the number of students accepted for each examination and organization but not the examinees' identity. No research

... as focused on this type of data. When we know the difficulty level of these examinations, we can obtain a new index to assess organization ability, how many students pass, and the difficulty of the examinations. This index would reflect the outcomes of their education corresponding to perspectives on examinations. Therefore, we propose a novel method, Peak Shift Estimation, to estimate the difficulty level of an examination based on selectively omitted examination data. First, we apply Peak Shift Estimation to the simulation data and demonstrate that Peak Shift Estimation estimates the rank order of the difficulty level of university entrance examinations very robustly. Peak Shift Estimation is also suitable for estimating a multi-level scale for universities, that is, A, B, C, and D rank university entrance examinations. We apply Peak Shift Estimation to real data of the Tokyo metropolitan area and demonstrate that the rank correlation coefficient between difficulty level ranking and true ranking is 0.844 and that the difference between 80 percent of universities is within 25 ranks. The accuracy of Peak Shift Estimation is thus low and must be improved; however, this is the first study to focus on ranking selectively omitted examination data, and therefore, one of our contributions is to shed light on this method.

During the Coronavirus 2019 (the covid-19) pandemic, schools continuously strive to provide consistent education to their students. Teachers and education policymakers are seeking ways to re-open schools, as it is necessary for community and economic development. However, in light of the pandemic, schools require customized schedules that can address the health concerns and safety of the students considering classroom sizes, air conditioning equipment, classroom systems, e.g., self-contained or

... compartmentalized. To solve this issue, we developed the School-Virus-Infection-Simulator (SVIS) for teachers and education policymakers. SVIS simulates the spread of infection at a school considering the students' lesson schedules, classroom volume, air circulation rates in classrooms, and infectability of the students. Thus, teachers and education policymakers can simulate how their school schedules can impact current health concerns. We then demonstrate the impact of several school schedules in self-contained and departmentalized classrooms and evaluate them in terms of the maximum number of students infected simultaneously and the percentage of face-to-face lessons. The results show that increasing classroom ventilation rate is effective, however, the impact is not stable compared to customizing school schedules, in addition, school schedules can differently impact the maximum number of students infected depending on whether classrooms are self-contained or compartmentalized. It was found that one of school schedules had a higher maximum number of students infected, compared to schedules with a higher percentage of face-to-face lessons. SVIS and the simulation results can help teachers and education policymakers plan school schedules appropriately in order to reduce the maximum number of students infected, while also maintaining a certain percentage of face-to-face lessons.

... g. Initial ECG showed ventricular fibrillation (VF) and subsequently underwent advanced cardiovascular life support. On admission, the ECG still showed VF, but pupillary light reflex was faintly present. Then, veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) support was established 54 minutes after collapse. Blood tests showed lactate was 15.8 mmol/l and NH 3 of 251 μg/dl. To improve respiratory function after cardiogenic shock, we changed to veno-venous ECMO (VV-ECMO) and removed superabundant fluid using continuous hemodiafiltration. Patient was discharged on day-26 after a full functional recovery. Conclusion: In severe respiratory disorder, it would be more effective to change to VV-ECMO after recovering from cardiogenic shock while removing superabundant fluid using continuous hemodiafiltration. In predicting the neurological outcome of a post cardiac arrest patient, the presence of a pupillary light reflex may be more significant than NH 3 and lactate.

We study correlation functions of the energy-momentum tensor (EMT) in (2+1)-flavor full QCD to evaluate QGP viscosities. We adopt nonperturbatively improved Wilson fermion and Iwasaki gauge action. Our degenerate u, d quark mass is rather heavy with m_π/m_ρ≃0.63, while the s quark mass is set to approximately its physical value. Performing simulations on lattices with N_t=16 to 6 at a fine lattice spacing of a=0.07 fm, the temperature range of T≃174--464 MeV is covered using the fixed-scale

... oach. We attempt to compute viscosities by three steps: (1) calculate two point correlation functions of non-perturbatively renormalized EMT applying the gradient flow method, (2) derive the spectral function from correlation function, and (3) extract viscosities from the spectral function applying the Kubo formula. We report on the status of the project and present preliminary results for the shear viscosity in the high temperature phase.

Graft acceptance without the need for immunosuppressive drugs is the ultimate goal of transplantation therapy. In murine liver transplantation, allografts are accepted across major histocompatibility antigen complex barriers without the use of immunosuppressive drugs and constitute a suitable model for research on immunological rejection and tolerance. MicroRNA (miRNA) has been known to be involved in the immunological responses. In order to identify mRNAs in spontaneous liver allograft

... e, miRNA expression in hepatic allografts was examined using this transplantation model. According to the graft pathological score and function, miR-146a, 15b, 223, 23a, 27a, 34a and 451 were upregulated compared with the expression observed in the syngeneic grafts. In contrast, miR-101a, 101b and 148a were downregulated. Our results demonstrated the alteration of miRNAs in the allografts and may indicate the role of miRNAs in the induction of tolerance after transplantation. Furthermore, our data suggest that monitoring the graft expression of novel miRNAs may allow clinicians to differentiate between rejection and tolerance. A better understanding of the tolerance inducing mechanism observed in murine hepatic allografts may provide a therapeutic strategy for attenuating allograft rejection.

We study the endpoint of the first order deconfinement phase transition of 2 and 2+1 flavor QCD in the heavy quark region. We perform simulations of quenched QCD and apply the reweighting method to study the heavy quark region. The quark determinant for the reweighting is evaluated by a hopping parameter expansion. To reduce the overlap problem, we introduce an external source term of the Polyakov loop in the simulation. We study the location of critical point at which the first order phase
