The present invention addresses the problem of providing a medicinal composition and a drug combination by which nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis can be prevented and/or treated. The present invention provides a combination of a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) α agonist with a sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, which is to be used for preventing and/or treating nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.

Prophylactic and therapeutic drug for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

There is provided a linear actuator provided with a dust-proof mechanism capable of preventing dust-proof belts from being deformed, improving a sealing performance between the dust-proof belts and a housing member, and achieving high dust-proof performance irrespective of a size of the linear actuator. The linear actuator provided with the dust-proof mechanism includes: a housing member disposed so as to cover at least a ball screw; an opening portion formed in the housing member so as to extend along a moving locus of a movable stage; and dust-proof belts stretched inside the housing member so as to close the opening portion by being mounted to mounting members disposed both end portions of the housing member, wherein a bypass member for bypassing the dust-proof belts positioned at position overlapped with the movable stage is provided for the movable stage so as to realize movement of the movable member along the opening portion while closing and sealing the opening portion by the dust-proof belts, and in such a linear actuator provided with the dust-proof mechanism, the dust-proof belts are wound up around the mounting member and sandwiched between the mounting member and the end portions of the housing member.

Linear actuator provided with dust-proof mechanism

A rotary table device includes a cooling structure and a rotary bearing provided with a cooling structure. A rotary table device provided with a cooling structure includes a hollow motor as a drive source, a table rotated by the hollow motor, and a rotary bearing supporting rotational motion of the table, in which the rotary bearing includes an outer ring having an inner peripheral surface to which a rolling surface is formed, an inner ring having an outer peripheral surface to which a rolling surface facing the rolling surface of the outer ring is formed, and a number of rolling members in a rolling passage formed by the rolling surface of the outer ring and the rolling surface of the inner ring, and a heat sink is formed to either one of the inner and outer rings.

A linear actuator with a dustproof mechanism provides reliable dustproof capability over the entire stroke of the actuator. A linear actuatorwith a dustproof mechanism includes a ball screw, a movable stageincluding a ball screw nut that engages the ball screw, the movable stage capable of making linear reciprocating motion in the axial direction of the ball screw in response to rotary motion of the ball screw, a housing memberdisposed to cover at least the ball screw, openingsformed in the housing memberalong the path along which the movable stagetravels, and dustproof beltsdisposed inside the housing memberto block the openings. The linear actuatorwith a dustproof mechanism further includes end plate covers,that cover both ends of the housing memberand hence has high dustproof performance.
