Abstract: A medical information processing apparatus according to an embodiment includes a first analysis unit, a second analysis unit, a determination unit, and a third analysis unit. The first analysis unit executes a first analysis based on a medical image of a subject. The second analysis unit executes a second analysis based on a specimen examination result of the subject. The determination unit determines a matching degree between the result of the first analysis by the first analysis unit and the result of the second analysis by the second analysis unit. The third analysis unit executes a third analysis based on the medical image and the specimen examination result according to analysis conditions based on the determination result of the matching degree by the determination unit, and determines diagnosis support information based on the medical image and the specimen examination result.

Abstract: A medical information processing apparatus according to an embodiment includes processing circuitry configured to acquire a medical image obtained by imaging a subject, acquire a value of a biomarker contained in a sample collected from the subject, determine a region of interest on the acquired medical image, analyze the image of the determined region of interest and calculate a property of a drawn object, select a value of a biomarker associated with the calculated property of the drawn object, and determine consistency between the selected value of the biomarker and the calculated property of the drawn object.

Abstract: Alginate lyase activity is exhibited by the amino acid sequences (polypeptides) shown in SEQ ID No:1 and SEQ ID No:2. These polypeptides and their homology equivalents are used to produce 4-deoxy-L-erythro-5-hexoseulose uronic acid (DEH) by contacting the polypeptide(s) with an alginate containing a uronic acid moiety and holding the mixture of the alginate and the polypeptide(s) at a temperature at which alginate lyase activity is exhibited.

Abstract: The present invention has for its subject to obtain a composition for preventing cancer efficient for preventing cancer or preventing cancer recurred after its therapy, or to obtain a pharmaceutical product, food and drink, and cosmetic having a function for preventing cancer. The present inventors found that a composition containing coenzyme Q has a cancer-preventive effect.

Abstract: The present invention is built on a time out control apparatus to control the time out when a packet is transferred between terminal units connected to different buses. In the time out control apparatus, delay measuring means measures the delay time required for a response packet to be received after a request packet is sent to a terminal unit (control unit) connected via a bus. Delay information list generating means generates a delay information list in which the delay times measured by the delay measuring means are related to the individual identification information on the respective terminal units. Information output means reads out the delay time from the delay information list in accordance with a request from the terminal unit and outputs the delay time to the terminal unit. This sets the delay time on the time out register of the terminal unit.
