more images of the proximal surrounding; extracting, via the smart device, features of the one 
or more images to generate a feature vector; and processing, via the smart device, the feature 
vector for generating a sequence of words which combine to give a meaningful description of 
the one or more images.

Title: Small Changes in Extracellular Matrix Organization of the Glomerular Filter in Acquired and Genetic Kidney Disease May Lead to Nephrotic Proteinuria
Inventor: COMPER WAYNE
IPC: A61P13/12
Filed: 2021-08-24
Granted: 2021-11-18
Abstract: The glomerular filtration barrier (GFB) is one of the most accessible 
systems with which to study the structure and composition of a 
connective tissue system of extracellular matrix (ECM) components and 
the function they serve to regulate extracellular transport during kidney 
filtration. Of considerable interest is the role these components play in 
the development of nephrotic proteinuria in chronic kidney disease.  
Focus: Proteinuria is the net result of glomerular filtration and then 
subsequent protein handling by proximal tubular cells downstream 
from the filter. We demonstrate here that the mechanisms of 
proteinuria in acquired kidney disease, genetic kidney disease and 
overload proteinuria are very similar. In this paper we focus on the 
implications of overload proteinuria, generated through small 
increments in plasma albumin concentration.  
Outcomes: Overload proteinuria occurs by saturating an high capacity 
binding site of the Park and Maack type on the proximal tubule that is 
responsible for the retrieval of filtered proteins. For albumin, it does 
require an albumin glomerular sieving coefficient ~0.03 to occur and 
that normal homeostatic levels of filtered albumin are close to overload 
level of the receptor. Small changes in the transport properties of the
GFB, through changes in its organization of the ECM, are featured to 
have profound effects on overloading this receptor.  
Conclusions: Overload proteinuria-like effects can be used to partially 
explain the critical role of the glomerular-tubular axis on nephrotic 
proteinuria brought about by protein deletions/mutations in ECM 
components of the GFB.

Title: Microphone mask for divers.
Inventor: STONE MARK
IPC: B63C11/18
Filed: 1993-07-28
Abstract: A microphone mask to be worn in front of the mouth of an underwater diver has a microphone assembly and a teethpiece assembly mounted in a rubber waterproof enclosure. The enclosure has an air passage extending from an inlet opening to a rear outlet opening. The teethpiece assembly includes a plastic insert with a vertical plate mounted in the enclosure. The vertical plate has openings for the air passage as well as to allow sound to travel from the diver's mouth to the microphone assembly. A teeth member extends rearwardly out of the outlet opening into the diver's mouth where it is held between the diver's teeth. The teeth member is connected to the insert by resilient spring members which draw the enclosure rearwardly against the diver's face. There is a sealing surface around the outlet opening, and this seals it around the outside of the diver's mouth. This eliminates the need for a headband and facilitates the use of the microphone mask for the combination of breathing and speaking.

Title: Watch movement monitoring system includes optical and acoustic detectors for sensing balance wheel movement
Inventor: VERMONT MICHEL
IPC: G04D7/12
Filed: 1997-07-28
Abstract: The procedure for measuring the angle through which a watch balance wheel turns between the two contacts with the escapement comprises an electro-optical system for measuring the amplitude of the balance wheel movement, and an electro-acoustic system for measuring the time taken for this movement. The angle is determined by calculation from the amplitude and time measurements.  The equipment includes a support (1) and electro-acoustic unit (1) with a microphone (8) and an electronic circuit (9). A light source (10) co-operates with a photoelectric cell (12) and an electronic circuit (13). A processing unit (6) uses the signals from the two electronic circuits to determine the angle covered by the balance wheel between the two strikes of the escapement. Once this value is known, it is then possible to measure the amplitude of the balance wheel, with precision, even when the movement is inside the casing.

Title: Siphon for rain water sump
Inventor: NILL WERNER
IPC: E03F5/20
Filed: 1988-09-30
Abstract: The rain water or waste water drainage system has a sump (5) in which water is collected.

Title: Process for the preparation of new stabilising agents for concentrated aqueous formaldehyde solutions
Inventor: BRIAL JEAN-CLAUDE
IPC: C07C47/058
Filed: 1976-12-02
Abstract: The new macromolecular telomers are used as stabilising agents for concentrated aqueous formaldehyde solutions. These telomers are obtained by a process which consists:   a) in telomerising vinyl acetate by means of a nonhalogenated telogen agent in the presence of a free-radical generator, the telogen/vinyl acetate molar ratio being between 0.01 and 4, then, b) after optional distillation of the unreacted vinyl acetate and telogen agent, in partially acetalising the telomer formed in an organic solvent by means of formaldehyde in the presence of a strong inorganic acid, the formaldehyde/initially charged vinyl acetate molar ratio being between 0.2 and 1, preferably between 0.3 and 0.8, and finally c) in isolating the partially acetalised telomer thus obtained, by precipitation in alkaline water.   Very small amounts of these stabilising agents make it possible to stabilise aqueous formaldehyde solutions.
