  • Patent number: 9319823
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to controlling an application in a mobile terminal. The present disclosure includes an application control method and apparatus for a mobile terminal, earphone device, and application control system. The method for application control in a mobile terminal may include detecting connection of earphones having a sensor for sensing earphone wearing, sending, upon detection of earphone connection, an interrogation signal to the sensor of the earphones, receiving a response signal, corresponding to the interrogation signal, from the earphones, determining whether the earphones are worn by a user on the basis of the response signal, and controlling, when the earphones are not worn, an application being executed to stop output of an audio signal to the earphones.

  • Publication number: 20150322526
    Abstract: Provided is a method for predicting the risk of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The method comprises: 1) isolating a nucleic acid species from a biological species derived from a subject; 2) identifying the nucleotide of rs550818 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the GIT1 gene, which is the 24926101st nucleotide residue on human chromosome 17, from the nucleic acid isolated from stage 1); and 3) determining the risk of ADHD to be high when the genotype of rs550818 SNP that is identified in stage 2) carries T nucleotide; wherein the composition comprising a primer pair for amplifying a rs550818 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), wherein the primer pair comprises a primer having a sequence of SEQ ID NO:18 and a primer having a sequence of SEQ ID NO: 45.

  • Patent number: 8552253
    Abstract: Provided is a method of using any mammal except humans, in particular, a mammal as an attention deficit hyperactivity disorder model, wherein genes of G protein-coupled receptor kinase interacting protein 1 (GIT1) as a neuronal synapse protein in the brain are knocked out from the mammal. In addition, disclosed is analysis of GIT1 knock-out mice in aspects of molecular biology, cellular biology, electrical biology and animal behavior and, more particularly, a screening method of novel drug, wherein excessive behavior as an attention deficit hyperactive disorder as well as recovery of theta wave in the frontal lobe are observed by administering a candidate material of the drug, thereby inducing recovery of the attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

  • Publication number: 20130072391
    Abstract: The following disclosure relates to a technology of genotyping a particular single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) having significant association with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and using the SNP genotypes for predicting the risk of ADHD. The present invention relates to providing a method of predicting ADHD risk by identifying the nucleotide of rs5508181 SNP in GIT1, which is C or T at the 24926101st residue on human chromosome 17, and a linkage disequilibrium block harboring rs5508181. Further, the present invention relates to a composition for diagnosing ADHD risk, including a probe for detecting the SNP or a primer for amplifying the chromosomal region, and a diagnosing kit having the probe immobilized on a surface thereof. Therefore, the method, the composition and the kit for diagnosing ADHD risk according to the following disclosure are useful technologies that can conveniently classify risk groups for ADHD at high sensitivity.
