A first reference line indicates a first reference value (A1) of the parameter (A). A second reference line indicates a second reference value (A2) of the parameter (A). A third reference line indicates a first reference value (B1) of the parameter (B). A fourth reference line indicates a second reference value (B2) of the parameter (B). A first plot indicates a combination of values of the parameters (A) and (B) that are measured at a present time point. Each of second plots indicates a combination of values of the parameter (A) and the parameter (B) that are measured at one of past time points. A region defined inside the reference lines is displayed on such a position that includes a center of the coordinate plane.

A first history display region and a second history display region are displayed in the second display region. The first history display region displays a history related to a first one of the measurement signals, and the second history display region displaying a history related to a second one of the measurement signals.

Abstract: To provide a muscular relaxation monitoring device, a muscular relaxation monitoring method and a muscular relaxation monitoring program capable of accurately grasping a muscular relaxation state of a subject. An input/output unit obtains a first reaction, a second reaction, a third reaction and a fourth reaction which are the first to fourth stimulation reaction values of four consecutive stimulations of a muscle. A display unit displays a display screen. A control unit generates the display screen in which a display effect of the first reaction and the fourth reaction is different from a display effect of the second reaction and the third reaction.

Abstract: A portable terminal device (1) according to the present invention includes a housing (11), a display panel (14), a resin material, and a metal material. The display panel (14) is disposed on a principal surface (100a) of the housing (11). The metal material is disposed on a side wall (112a) of the housing (11). The resin material is disposed at ends of the housing (11), the ends sandwiching the side wall (112a) in a longitudinal direction of the side wall (112a). The metal material has a strength higher than that of the resin material.

Abstract: In the inter-element influence determination apparatus, a receiver receives request information from a user terminal. A system information storage device stores system information containing attribute information indicating attributes of each element in a system. A relationship information storage device stores relationship information indicating relationships in which direct interaction is provided between elements. On the basis of the attribute information and the relationship information, an influence determiner virtually connects each element included in the system, thereby creating a system network model which models the system, and on the basis of the system network model, determines whether a second element is influenced when a change is made to a first element. A transmitter transmits to the user terminal determination result information indicating the result of the determination by the influence determiner.
