Abstract: A back coat, a metal thin film and a top coat are applied to an outer surface of a base member of a visor cover of a vehicle door mirror device, and in particular the metal thin film is formed by vapor deposition. The film thickness of the metal thin film can accordingly be made thinner than a case of when forming a metal film by plating, and the thickness of the metal thin film is easily managed. Accordingly, unwanted deformation of the visor cover when forming the metal thin film to the outer surface of the visor cover is not occurred, or deformation occurring in the visor cover can be suppressed.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for promptly identifying a liver disease. A normal person or a liver disease such as drug-induced liver injury, asymptomatic hepatitis B carrier, chronic hepatitis B, hepatitis C with persistently normal ALT, chronic hepatitis C, cirrhosis type C, hepatocellular carcinoma, simple steatosis, or non-alcoholic steatohepatitis is identified by measuring the concentration of a ?-Glu-X (wherein X represents an amino acid or an amine) peptide or the level of AST or ALT in blood and carrying out, for example, a multiple logistic regression based on the measured value.
