		Respectively, these were the Shugen sect of ascetic Buddhism, another sect practicing Shinto-Buddhist Syncreticism (the belief that Japan's traditional gods are incarnations of Buddhist deities), and the Shingon sect of esoteric Buddhism, each with their own distinct identity, yet interacting.
		Along the Omine Okugakemichi pilgrimage route, the strict 'okugake' training rituals of the Shugen sect continue to be practiced and the Kumano Sankeimichi and Koyasan Choishimichi pilgrimage routes also draw large numbers of people seeking such paths to enlightenment.All of these have had a profound influence on the formation of Japan's spiritual culture.

		We identified the optimal location for releasing artificially produced juveniles to enhance a stock of ocellate puffer, Takifugu rubripes, by tag and release experiments using fluorescent elastomer.
		The fish were released at four locations, Suruga Bay, Enshu Nada, Ise Bay and Kumano Nada, at the central coast of Honshu Island in Japan from 2001 to 2005.
		The marked fish were mainly recaptured at age 0 by small trawl net fisheries in Ise Bay, and at age one or older by longline fisheries within the whole area from Suruga Bay to Kumano Nada.

	ASH: Blood Pressure Variability Tied to Elderly Cognitive Dysfunction - CME Teaching Brief® - MedPage Today
		These data and conclusions should be considered to be preliminary as they have not yet been reviewed and published in a peer-reviewed publication.
		Systolic blood pressure swings of 22.9 to 33.3 mm Hg were associated with a significant risk of cognitive dysfunction compared with patients whose blood pressure only varied by 12.1 to 19.5 mm Hg over 24 hours (P=0.004), said Kenichi Sakakura, M.D., of the Public Kiwa Clinic in Kumano, Mie, Japan.
		At a press conference at the American Society of Hypertension meeting here, Dr. Sakakura said the relationship between blood pressure variability and cognitive function suggests that clinicians should consider aggressive management of blood pressure even in elderly patients.

		The researchers looked at blood pressure and cognitive function in 101 Japanese outpatients receiving treatment for chronic diseases such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, chronic gastritis and osteoporosis.
		"Although clinicians may be reluctant to treat older patients aggressively, perhaps because of perceived lower benefits or possible increased risk of medication side effects, these findings show the potential value of interventions," said Kenichi Sakakura of the Public Kiwa Clinic in Kumano, Mie, Japan.
		The goal of the study was to evaluate the association between pulse pressure and cognitive function in the very elderly, specifically those over 80 years old.

	Treating Hypertension in Elderly May Delay Cognitive Decline
		April 25, 2006 — Although it is difficult to find this surprising, a study of older people with advanced chronic illnesses has found them more likely to accept treatments that result in mild-to-severe functional disability as their health declines.
		“Although clinicians may be reluctant to treat older patients aggressively, perhaps because of perceived lower benefits or possible increased risk of medication side effects, these findings show the potential value of interventions,” said Kenichi Sakakura, M.D. of the Public Kiwa Clinic in Kumano, Mie, Japan.
