Abstract

Recent anecdotal and scientific reports have provided evidence of a link between COVID-19 and chemosensory impairments, such as anosmia. However, these reports have downplayed or failed to distinguish potential effects on taste, ignored chemesthesis, and generally lacked quantitative measurements. Here, we report the development, implementation, and initial results of a multilingual, international questionnaire to assess self-reported quantity and quality of perception in 3 distinct chemosensory modalities (smell, taste, and chemesthesis) before and during COVID-19. In the first 11 days after questionnaire launch, 4039 participants (2913 women, 1118 men, and 8 others, aged 19-79) reported a COVID-19 diagnosis either via laboratory tests or clinical assessment. Importantly, smell, taste, and chemesthetic function were each significantly reduced compared to their status before the disease. Difference scores (maximum possible change ±100) revealed a mean reduction of smell (-79.7 ± 28.7, mean ± standard deviation), taste (-69.0 ± 32.6), and chemesthetic (-37.3 ± 36.2) function during COVID-19. Qualitative changes in olfactory ability (parosmia and phantosmia) were relatively rare and correlated with smell loss. Importantly, perceived nasal obstruction did not account for smell loss. Furthermore, chemosensory impairments were similar between participants in the laboratory test and clinical assessment groups. These results show that COVID-19-associated chemosensory impairment is not limited to smell but also affects taste and chemesthesis. The multimodal impact of COVID-19 and the lack of perceived nasal obstruction suggest that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus strain 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection may disrupt sensory-neural mechanisms.

Abstract

The elucidation of odour awareness in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) is important. We compared the odour awareness of young children with ASD with those of typical development (TD) children using the Children's Olfactory Behavior in Everyday Life (COBEL) questionnaire, which is a self-report measure that mainly assesses odour awareness. Forty-five young boys (aged 5-6 years), including 20 children with ASD and 25 TD children, participated in this study. The total COBEL score of the young children with ASD was lower than that of the TD children (p < 0.01). Moreover, the total COBEL score was significantly correlated with the total VABS II score (p < 0.05). Our results improve understanding of the odour awareness in children with ASD.

Abstract

本稿では，2020年度後期に開講した一般情報教育の演習科目において，受講者に対して実施した本科目のルーブリックの自己評価の結果を用いて受講前後の比較および前年度との比較を行い，後期の授業を通じた受講者の知識やスキルの変化を検証した．また，文系学部学生を対象に前期に開講された科目の結果との比較を行い理系・文系の分野の違いやオンライン授業の経験の有無について考察を行った．その結果，2020年度後期の授業実践において，受講前後のルーブリックの自己評価の得点が有意に増加したこと，前年度の結果との比較において受講後の得点が向上したことを確認した．また，前年度との結果の比較において，受講前後における各項目の得点の差異がオンライン授業への移行やその経験が得点の変化に寄与している可能性が示唆された．さらに，2020年度の前期と後期の結果の比較において，ルーブリックの各項目の受講前後の得点および得点の伸びの差について，オンライン授業の受講の有無や文系・理系の分野の違いが得点に影響を与える可能性が示唆された．, This research reports the improvement in learners' knowledge and skills through the practical course of basic informatics using the rubric. The learners' self-evaluation responses were collected for pre-and-post course in the fall semester of 2020. Academic fields and online class experience were discussed by comparing the results of the classes in 2019 with those of different target learners in the spring semester of 2020. Consequently, the authors confirmed that the average self-evaluation score significantly increased after the coursework during the fall semester of 2020. Moreover, the average score increased compared to the previous year's classes, which were conducted face-to-face. Compared to the results in 2019, the score improvement in 2020 might have been caused by the online class experience in the fall semester. Compared to the spring semester, the results for each rubric item suggested that the online class experience and the difference in the academic field might have affected the average score of self-assessment.

Abstract

京都大学では，2020年3月，コロナ禍における対策として，ほとんどすべての対面授業をオンライン受講できるよう対策するとの方針を示した．本稿では，こうした状況下において実施した演習型プログラミング授業について，その実践例を報告するとともに，2019年に実施した従来型の対面授業と比較し，演習型授業のオンライン化における課題や問題点などについて考察した．その結果，オンライン授業では，授業の前半でつまずく受講者が多く見られたが，授業の後半では課題のプログラムを完成することができた割合が高かった．オンライン授業では，受講者が授業時間内にチャットで積極的に質問して，個々の疑問点を解消していたことが推察された．一方，対面授業では，授業の後半でつまずく受講者が多く見られており，授業中に質問しなかった（できなかった）受講生がいた可能性が浮かび上がった．, Due to the need to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 in March 2020, Kyoto University has been requested to offer online classes. Therefore, it has become necessary to shift from face-to-face classes to online classes. In this paper, a practical example of programming class is reported. Additionally, in this study, problems and issues in online classes are discussed by comparing with previous face-to-face classes in 2019. As a result, in the online class, many students failed in the first half of the class, but a high percentage of them were able to complete the assigned program in the second half of the class. It was assumed that the students actively asked questions via chat during the class session to resolve their individual issues. On the other hand, in the face-to-face class, many students appeared to falter in the latter half of the class, suggesting the possibility that some students did not (or could not) ask questions during the class.

Abstract

Correction: Chemical Senses, Volume 46, 2021, bjab050, https://doi.org/10.1093/chemse/bjab050 Published: 08 December 2021 Recent anecdotal and scientific reports have provided evidence of a link between COVID-19 and chemosensory impairments, such as anosmia. However, these reports have downplayed or failed to distinguish potential effects on taste, ignored chemesthesis, and generally lacked quantitative measurements. Here, we report the development, implementation, and initial results of a multilingual, international questionnaire to assess self-reported quantity and quality of perception in 3 distinct chemosensory modalities (smell, taste, and chemesthesis) before and during COVID-19. In the first 11 days after questionnaire launch, 4039 participants (2913 women, 1118 men, and 8 others, aged 19-79) reported a COVID-19 diagnosis either via laboratory tests or clinical assessment. Importantly, smell, taste, and chemesthetic function were each significantly reduced compared to their status before the disease. Difference scores (maximum possible change +/- 100) revealed a mean reduction of smell (-79.7 +/- 28.7, mean +/- standard deviation), taste (-69.0 +/- 32.6), and chemesthetic (-37.3 +/- 36.2) function during COVID-19. Qualitative changes in olfactory ability (parosmia and phantosmia) were relatively rare and correlated with smell loss. Importantly, perceived nasal obstruction did not account for smell loss. Furthermore, chemosensory impairments were similar between participants in the laboratory test and clinical assessment groups. These results show that COVID-19-associated chemosensory impairment is not limited to smell but also affects taste and chemesthesis.The multimodal impact of COVID-19 and the lack of perceived nasal obstruction suggest that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus strain 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection may disrupt sensory-neural mechanisms.

Abstract

This is a correction notice for article bjaa041 (DOI: https:// doi.org/10.1093/chemse/bjaa041), published 20 June 2020. An incorrect version of the caption to Figure 5 was mistakenly included in the published paper. An updated version is given below. Neither the data nor the paper's conclusions were affected by this correction. The authors sincerely apologize for the error. (A) Correlations between the 3 principal components with respect to changes in 3 chemosensory modalities (i.e., taste, smell, and chemesthesis). Shades of gray indicate positive correlation, whereas shades of red indicate negative correlations. White denotes no correlation. (B) Clusters of participants identified by k-means clustering. The scatterplot shows each participant's loading on dimension 1 (degree of smell and taste loss, PC1 on x-Axis) and dimension 2 (degree of chemesthesis loss, PC2 on y-Axis). Based on the centroid of each cluster, participants in cluster 1 (blue, N = 1767; top left) are generally characterized by significant smell, taste and chemesthesis loss. Participants in cluster 2 (orange, N = 1724; bottom center) are generally characterized by ratings that reflect smell/taste loss with preserved chemesthesis. Loadings for participants in cluster 3 (green, N = 548; right side) are generally characterized by reduced smell and taste loss, and preserved chemesthesis.
