  • Publication number: 20170176412
    Abstract: A method for predicting options of depression treatment drugs includes (a) measuring a phosphoethanolamine (PEA) level in blood collected from a patient suspected of depression, (b) measuring whether the blood PEA level of the patient is lower than a reference value or not, wherein if the measured value of the patient is lower than values of healthy persons, the patient suffers from depression exhibiting a decreased PEA level as an indicator, and (c) predicting options of depression treatment drugs on the basis of the presence or absence of decreased blood PEA level in the patient. Thus, PEA, which is a biomarker of depression, can be directly linked to treatment.

  • Patent number: 9612837
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a rewriting unit and an execution unit. The rewriting unit rewrites a first instruction described at a trace point in a function defined in a program to a second instruction which gives instructions to execute a trace code, and stores the first instruction in a storage unit. The execution unit executes the trace code on the basis of the second instruction at the time of execution at the trace point in the function. If a third instruction which calls the function is included in the trace code, the execution unit replaces, at the time of executing the third instruction, the second instruction at the trace point in the function with the first instruction stored in the storage unit, and performs the function.

  • Publication number: 20170025600
    Abstract: A magnetoresistive element includes a reference layer having a fixed magnetization direction and including a ferromagnetic material containing Fe or Co, a recording layer having a variable magnetization direction and including a ferromagnetic material, and one non-magnetic layer that is formed between the reference layer and the recording layer and that contains oxygen. One of the reference layer and the recording layer contains Fe. The three layers are arranged so that a magnetization direction of the one of the reference layer and the recording layer becomes perpendicular to a layer surface by an interfacial perpendicular magnetic anisotropy at an interface between the one of the reference layer and the recording layer and the one non-magnetic layer resulting from the one of the reference layer and the recording layer having a predetermined thickness. The one of the reference layer and the recording layer has a bcc structure.

  • Patent number: 9525801
    Abstract: An image reading control apparatus performs processing to achieve adequate execution of image reading processing based on a reading instruction which is provided while the image reading processing is being performed. In a case where the image reading control apparatus detects that the image reading apparatus provides an image reading instruction, it is determined whether processing based on the image reading processing is being performed. In a case where the image reading apparatus is currently in the processing based on the image reading processing, the image reading control apparatus causes the currently detected processing for the image reading instruction to stand by as well as requests the image reading apparatus not to accept the other new job.
