Abstract:
A method for treating a patient suffering from disorders and deficits of the central nervous system associated with diabetes, associated with aging and neurodegeneration, comprising attention deficit disorder in general, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), Alzheimer's disease (AD), mild cognitive impairment, senile dementia, AIDS dementia, neurodegeneration, depression, and schizophrenia, comprising administering to a patient in need of such treatment an effective amount of a selective inhibitor of the 11-β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase Type 1 enzyme activity.
Abstract:
A rack driving-type power assisted steering apparatus having effects of preventing a lock screw from being loosened due to vibration in axial and radial directions generated by a rack bar, a ball nut, and a rack housing when the rack bar slides while the ball nut rotates, reducing vibration and noise of the ball nut and the rack bar transferred through a bearing, and providing a driver with steering comfortability.
Abstract:
There is described a process for the manufacture of compounds of the formula I said process comprising reacting a compound of the formula II as described herein, or a salt thereof, under simultaneous or sequential condensation and cyclisation conditions with an aniline compound of the formula III, wherein R2 and m are as defined for a compound of the formula I. Further reactions and related embodiments are also claimed and disclosed.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to compounds which are inhibitors of the 11-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase Type 1 enzyme. The present invention further relates to the use of inhibitors of 11-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase Type 1 enzyme for the treatment of non-insulin dependent type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, obesity, lipid disorders, metabolic syndrome and other diseases and conditions that are mediated by excessive glucocorticoid action.

Abstract:
A system and method of recognizing absolute coordinates are provided. The absolute coordinate recognition system includes: a pattern recording medium in which each cell is diagrammatized, and a predetermined microcode is allocated to the pattern formed by each arrangement of the diagrammatized cells; a pattern sensing unit recognizing the microcode by sensing the pattern; and a signal processing unit calculating the position of the pattern sensing unit on the pattern recording medium, from the sensed pattern. By constructing the simpler patterns of the pattern recording medium, the absolute coordinate recognition system and method therefor enable imaging system and image sensor with not-high resolutions to recognize the patterns.
Abstract:
Antibacterial compounds having formula (I) and salts, prodrugs, and salts of prodrugs thereof, processes for making the compounds and intermediates used in the processes, compositions containing the compounds, and methods for prophylaxis or treatment of bacterial infections using the compounds are disclosed.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to compounds that inhibit dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) and are useful for the prevention or treatment of diabetes, especially type II diabetes, as well as hyperglycemia, Syndrome X, hyperinsulinemia, obesity, atherosclerosis, and various immunomodulatory diseases.
Abstract:
When a thin-film transistor (TFT) is formed on a glass substrate, electric charges caused in the TFT can be removed so as to avoid electrostatic damage in the TFT. A short-circuiting pattern that short-circuits the source region and the drain region of the TFT is added to a polysilicon pattern that constitutes the TFT. This short-circuiting pattern is removed at the same time as or after the wiring formation in the source region and the drain region.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to inhibitors of the 11-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase Type 1 enzyme and their use in treatment of non-insulin dependent type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, obesity, lipid disorders, metabolic syndrome, central nervous system disorders, and diseases and conditions that are related to excessive glucocorticoids.
