INTEGRATION OF COMPUTERS AND TERMINALS BY INTRODUCTION OF THE VIRTUALIZATION TECHNOLOGY AND THIN CLIENT IN SPRING-8

Abstract We applied virtualization technology to server computers to form a high-availability redundant server system. At the same time, we replaced general-purpose PCs with thin-client terminals. The introduction of these technologies reduced the number of computers substantially and gave us an opportunity to develop highavailability computing systems with inexpensive management. To ensure high availability, the server computer has to be built using reliable components with redundant architecture instead of reducing the number of computers. The application-processing performance of the client OS on the host OS was greater than or equal to that a standalone server. The combination of the recent multicore architecture server and Xen hypervisor showed good performance as a result of appropriately allocating system resources to Xen Hypervisor. The thin-client system is useful for integrating widely scattered terminals into a small number of systems, which will reduce maintenance effort. The integrated virtual machine system and thin-client system use a network-attached storage system that runs under the redundant configuration

EFFECT OF HELICOBACTER PYLORI ERADICATION IN PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC IDIOPATHIC THROMBOCYTOPENIC PURPURA

慢性特発性血小板減少性紫斑病(ITP)22例を対象にHelicobacter pylori (H.pylori)感染を検査し,感染陽性者18例中informed consentを得られた17例に除菌療法を施行して,ITPに対する治療効果を検討した.15例で除菌に成功(除菌成功率88.2%)した.8例で血小板数が10万/μ1以上となる完全寛解となり,軽快が1例(有効率60%)で,6例は不変であった.有意差はみられなかったが,治療前の血小板関連IgG(PAlgG)低値例が奏効する傾向があった.Grade 2の発疹が3例,Grade 1の下痢が2例にみられた他は重篤な有害事象を認めず,除菌療法を中止した症例はいなかった.H.pylori陽性ITPに対する除菌療法は重篤な副作用なしに優れた奏効率を示した.今後標準的治療の第一選択治療のひとつとして確立されると考えられた
