Abstract: We have developed a data archiving system for study of charged particle therapy. We required a data-relation mechanism between electronic medical record system (EMR) and database system, because it needs to ensure the information consistency. This paper presents the investigation results of these techniques. The standards in the medical informatics field that we focus on are Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE) and 2) Health Level-7 (HL7) to archive the data. As a main cooperation function, we adapt 2 integration profiles of IHE as follows, 1) Patient Administration Management (PAM) Profile of IHE-ITI domain for patient demographic information reconciliation, 2) Enterprise Schedule Integration(ESI) profile of IHE-Radiation Oncology domain for order management between EMR and treatment management system(TMS). We also use HL7 Ver2.5 messages for exchanging the follow-up data and result of laboratory test. In the future, by implementation of this system cooperation, we will be able to ensure interoperability in the event of the EMR update.

Abstract: This paper reports the structure of the hydrate complex of an isolated alcoholic OH, produced in a small amount in hydrophobic solution in heptane. The structure was determined from the changes, caused by hydration, in the infrared and near-infrared spectra of 2-nonanol in the solution. The changes were exhibited in the “difference” spectrum, in which the spectrum of the solution before hydration was subtracted from that after hydration. The difference spectrum showed a “plus” or “minus” peak at the frequency of the stretching band of a free OH, depending on whether the concentration was below or above about 2%(v/v), respectively. The plus peak appears because the OH stretching band of the isolated OH that acts as an acceptor does not change in frequency but significantly increases in intensity, in agreement with theoretical calculations. In contrast, the stretching band of an isolated OH that acts as a donor shifts downward. This shift decreases the intensity at the stretching frequency of a free OH, giv...
