20150042436 | COIL COMPONENT - In a coil component, a shortest distance from a longitudinal wall of a flange portion of a drum core to a wire fixing portion is smaller than a shortest distance of the longitudinal wall to an electrode wire connecting portion by a convex portion formed at the longitudinal wall of the flange portion. That is, since a gap between the flange portion of the drum core and the wire fixing portion is small (or there is no gap), the wire fixing portion can be sufficiently bent. Accordingly, the wire can be securely fixed by a wire fixing portion of a metal terminal. | 02-12-2015 |
20150080257 | METHOD FOR EVALUATING URATE TRANSPORT-RELATED DISEASE FACTOR AND INFLAMMATION-RELATED DISEASE FACTOR - A method and evaluation kit are provided, in which a high-capacity urate transporter is identified to assist in the early treatment and prevention of urate transport-related disease and inflammation-related disease. The method can include a step for detecting variations in genes that encode ABCG2 protein. When a subject has an SNP of V12M, R113X, Q126X, Q141K, F2085, G268R, E334X, S441N, L447V, S486N, F506SfsX4, R575X, and/or C608X, it can be concluded that the subject has a factor that is capable of inducing urate transport failure, or a state or disease attributable to that failure. When a subject has an SNP of V12M, it can be concluded that, unlike the other SNPs, there is a possibility that the subject does not possess such a factor because, although this variation itself does not lead to a change in urate transport capability, said variation is related to linkage disequilibrium with other SNPs. | 03-19-2015 |
