20110007050	IMAGE DISPLAY APPARATUS AND IMAGE DISPLAY METHOD - When displaying moving images by using liquid crystal panels and others, a problem exists in that tail streaks occur, and image degradation is resultantly caused. To solve this problem, an echo suppression circuit divides a video signal into a pair composed of two successive frames for comparison between these two frames in signal level for the purpose of suppressing an echo phenomenon occurring when a liquid crystal panel displays video signals including moving images. If these two frames are not the same in signal level, the signal is accordingly corrected so as to equalize the signal level of these frames. Based on the video signals and others corrected by the echo suppression circuit, a controller operates the liquid crystal panel with AC drive through a source driver and a gate driver. As such, the drive voltage used to operate the liquid crystal panel with AC drive is adjusted so as to be balanced between positive and negative. In this manner, the tail streaks are prevented when displaying moving images.	01-13-2011

20100234385	Compsition Containing Biopterin and Method for Using The Same - It is thought that applications and use of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), which is used as a pharmaceutical, will expand due to its superior efficacy. However, in addition to BH4 being extremely expensive, since it is unstable with respect to oxidation, applications other than pharmaceuticals are considered to be difficult. Further, it is difficult for BH4 to permeate through a blood-brain barrier, so that BH4 concentrations in the brain tend not to increase under the present conditions. Biopterins are oxidized form of BH4, stable to oxidation, easy to handle, and can be produced inexpensively. The inventors found that administration of biopterin can be expected to demonstrate effects equal to or greater than those of administration of BH4. On the basis of the result, it was first clarified that administration of a composition containing biopterin causes increase in BH4 concentration in the body (especially BH4 concentration in the brain, which is difficult to be increased by BH4 administration) to demonstrate sufficient actions.	09-16-2010

20080259027	Multiple cursor system and method for vehicle - An in-vehicle multiple cursor system properly provides information necessary for a user in case that the number of wirelessly connected portable devices increases to thereby cause lack of a memory space for drawing. A cursor operation for requesting a drawing occurs in a portable device. An in-vehicle navigation system thereby makes a determination as to whether or not a segmental memory space assigned to the portable device in a memory space of a drawing memory device has at least a predetermined data volume. When the determination is affirmed, necessary drawing data are read out from a resource database and forwarded to a drawing memory device of the portable device to be developed therein. A screen window is then displayed in a display unit of the portable device based on the developed drawing data.	10-23-2008
