摘要:
The object of this invention is to provide a method for efficiently identifying a disease susceptibility gene and, in particular, a disease susceptibility gene of a disease such as a multifactorial disease where a large number of genes are involved. This invention relates to a method for identifying a disease susceptibility gene including selecting a plurality of SNP markers so as not to be unevenly distributed throughout a candidate region for the disease susceptibility gene, comparing by statistical processing a healthy control group and a diseased group with respect to the SNP markers selected, choosing SNP markers that exhibit a significant difference, comparing by statistical processing a healthy control group and a diseased group that are different from the groups above, specifying a SNP marker that exhibits a significant difference as a disease susceptibility SNP marker, and identifying a gene by subjecting the disease susceptibility SNP marker to a linkage disequilibrium analysis and locating a region, within the target candidate region, in which linkage disequilibrium is observed and which contains the disease susceptibility SNP marker, and a program and a system therefor.

The present invention discloses a sheet processing unit which can control the timing in conveying successively fed sheets to a sheet ejecting mechanism in accordance with operating conditions. The sheet processing unit comprises a sheet overlapping mechanism which overlaps successively fed sheets together, a conveying mechanism which conveys the sheets from the sheet overlapping mechanism, an ejecting mechanism which ejects the sheets conveyed by the conveying mechanism, and a control unit which electrically controls operations of the sheet overlapping mechanism, the conveying mechanism, and the ejecting mechanism. The control unit changes the number of sheets to be overlapped together at the sheet overlapping mechanism in accordance with information on the conditions for operation of the sheet processing unit inputted from an input unit.

A despreading circuit which can reduce a circuit scale and power consumption is described. The circuit includes an A/D converter which converts a CDMA modulated analog signal to a digital signal of N bits, and a searcher which defects a synchronization phase from high-order small bits of the N bits and outputs synchronozation phase information to a control circuit. The control circuit transmits a signal for allowing despreading to be performed to a sliding correlator based on the phase information. The sliding correlator despreads the N bit digital signal outputted by the A/D converter and outputs the resulting correlation output as a despreading signal.

A video monitor system comprises a transmitting medium, video cameras, monitors, VTR, monitor terminals, a control portion and a transmitting medium having channels of video signals and a data channel coupling these units. The video monitor receives a request of a desired camera and a desired monitor and supplies the data indicative the request. The control portion receives the data indicative of the request and determines one of channels and operates the desired camera and desired monitor thorough the determined one of channels to display a video signal on the desired monitor. The VTR records one of video signals from a desired video camera through determined one of channels. A priority is judged to control one video camera which are requested to be operated by two monitor control terminals at the same time. A diagnostic function for detecting a defect and a location in the transmitting medium and a sequential operation function are also provided. The control portion operates in two modes which can be alternately executed by storing conditional data of two modes. An integrated video monitor system having two video monitor systems mentioned above and a center monitor for displaying a video signal from either of one of video camera of either of the monitor systems is also disclosed.

An operating mechanism disposed on a handle bar of a baby carriage for actuating locking mechanisms disposed at opposite ends of the handle bar and which locks the handle bar at a predetermined position or locks the baby carriage in a folded or an unfolded position. The handle bar has a hollow tubular construction and is bent in a U-shape or an inverted U-shape as viewed from its front. The operating mechanism includes a pair of slide members each of which is slidably disposed at the central portion of the handle bar, operating wires inserted into the handle bar, each of the operating wires having an upper end respectively retained by each of the slide members and a lower end attached to the locking mechanisms, and slide guide projections projecting from upper and lower sides of each of the slide members and an operating grip rotatably mounted on the surface of the handle bar, the operating grip having U-shaped guide grooves formed therein into which the slide guide projections are received. In this manner, the slide members can slide in the horizontal directions in the handle bar in response to rotation of the operating grips to thereby actuate the locking mechanisms.
