Abstract: An effective agent for treating ischemic disease, the agent containing human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (human G-CSF) as an active ingredient is disclosed. By administering this therapeutic agent, an effective therapy particularly for obstructive arteriosclerosis is provided which can eliminate drawbacks with conventional therapies, such as kinesitherapy, pharmacotherapy, and revascularization, and recently proposed therapies, such as gene therapy and intramuscular transplantation of bone marrow cells. Furthermore, the therapeutic agent can be used as an agent for treating ischemic disease, such as ischemic cerebrovascular disorder or ischemic heart disease.

Abstract: There is provided an attendance management system capable of easily checking attendance without requiring a special procedure or an individual authentication card or an attendance permission card. The attendance management system (100) includes a desk (103) having an identifier which can be imaged, a mobile telephone (102) having the camera function, and a center device (101) for checking attendance according to the identifier of the desk (103) and an identifier of the mobile telephone (102) transmitted from the mobile telephone (102). According to the identifier of the desk and the identifier of the mobile telephone, it is possible to check which student (mobile telephone) is present at which lesson (desk). Thus, it is possible to easily check attendance.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for preparing [F-18]-fluoride ion which comprises the step of bringing [O-18]-enriched water containing [F-18]-fluoride ion formed by proton irradiation of [O-18]-enriched water into contact with a strongly acidic cation exchange resin to remove impurity cations, the step of then bringing the [O-18]-enriched water containing [F-18]-fluoride ion treated above into contact with a weakly basic anion exchange resin to make [F-18]-fluoride ion adsorbed to the resin and, along therewith, to recover the [O-18]-enriched water which has passed through the resin, and the step of eluting and collecting the [F-18]-fluoride ion adsorbed to the weakly basic anion exchange resin.

Abstract: The present invention provides a hydraulic test system, by which it is possible to select a proper position and to select a reliable measurement interval corresponding to said position, to obtain information for preventing retention or leaving of the equipment in the borehole, and to observe the conditions in front and lateral directions by a single BTV at the same time and at wide angle of view without adjusting focal point. On the tip of a measurement pipe to be inserted into a borehole, a waterproofing cylinder with a transparent window oriented for simultaneously observing in both the front and lateral directions is mounted, and there are provided illumination units for illuminating in front direction and side walls and a borehole television set equipped with a ball lens, spherical mirror lens or matched convex pair of lens system in said cylinder, which forms a virtual image of an object in front direction and a reflected virtual image of an object in lateral direction on almost the same plane.
