Abstract: Disclosed is an ear-fitting device and a warming device configured to suppress burn of an ear by a warming body. The ear-fitting device according to the disclosure is wearable on an ear and includes a contact portion for contacting a predetermined site of an auricle, and a retainer portion for retaining a warming body capable of warming the predetermined site of the auricle through the contact portion. The retainer portion serves to retain the warming body via the contact portion, in a state where it is spaced from the contact portion.

Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for suppressing reduction in the quantity of lidocaines in external pharmaceutical compositions. In a pharmaceutical composition containing lidocaine and/or a salt thereof, the pharmaceutical composition being accommodated in a container of which the inner walls are configured from linear low-density polyethylene, and being such that the carbon number of the side chain of the linear low-density polyethylene is 4 or lower, a reduction in the quantity of lidocaine and/or salt thereof is suppressed.

Abstract: No drug has been available for treating a peripheral sensory neuropathy caused as a side effect by a drug, in particular, by an anticancer drug such as oxaliplatin. A composition for ameliorating peripheral sensory neuropathy, which is characterized by including a Lentinus edodes mycelium extract, ameliorates symptoms induced by the drug such as the anticancer drug, including numbness of extremities, a pain in extremities, a reduction in deep tendon reflection, a reduction in muscle force, allodynia, hyperalgesia, impaired finger fine movement, impaired walking, stumbling, falling, impaired flexion (being difficult or impossible to sit on one's heels, sit cross-legged, sit with one's legs out to one side, sit on a chair, or the like), or paralysis of extremities.

Abstract: An interdental cleaning tool producing method that enables cost reduction is provided. An interdental cleaning tool producing method according to the present invention includes; a first step of preparing a mold provided with at least one first cavity for molding a cleaning tool main body including two supporting pieces that are arranged with a predetermined interval and a handle portion that couples the two supporting pieces and can be held in a hand, the mold being configured such that at least one thread member to span between the two supporting pieces can be arranged in the mold; a second step of arranging the thread member in the mold; a third step of filling the first cavity with a resin material via a gate provided in the mold using a hot runner method; and a fourth step of removing the thread member and the cleaning tool main body fixed to the thread member from the mold.

Abstract: An interdental cleaning tool includes a base portion including a shaft portion having a shape insertable in an interdental space, a top end side cleaning portion including a top end side body covering a top end side portion of the shaft portion, and a plurality of top end side bristles protruding outward from an outer circumferential surface of the top end side body, and a base end side cleaning portion including a base end side body covering a portion of the shaft portion further in a base end side than the top end side body, and a plurality of base end side bristles protruding outward from an outer circumferential surface of the base end side body. The top end side cleaning portion has a lower hardness than the base end side cleaning portion.

Abstract: Provided is an interdental cleaning tool that can reduce at least one of a resistance against insertion in an interdental space and a resistance against withdrawal from an interdental space, and has a high capability of scraping out deposit from an interdental space. The interdental cleaning tool includes a base portion including a shaft portion (20) and a cleaning portion (40). The cleaning portion (40) includes a cleaning portion body (50) and a plurality of bristles (60). The plurality of bristles (60) include at least one of a type of top end-oriented bristles and a type of base end-oriented bristles. The top end-oriented bristle has a shape titling to a top end side of the shaft portion (20) as advancing away from an outer circumferential surface of the cleaning portion body (50). The base end-oriented bristle has a shape tilting to a base end side of the shall portion (20) as advancing away from the outer circumferential surface of the cleaning portion body (50).
