Abstract: Behavioral pharmacological data with the compound of formula (I), a novel and selective 5HT2A/2C receptor inverse agonist, demonstrate  in vivo  efficacy in models of psychosis and dyskinesias. This includes activity in reversing MK-801 induced locomotor behaviors, suggesting that this compound may be an efficacious antipsychotic, and activity in an MPTP primate model of dyskinesias, suggesting efficacy as an anti-dyskinesia agent. These data support the hypothesis that 5HT2A/2C receptor inverse agonism may confer antipsychotic and anti-dyskinetic efficacy in humans, and indicate a use of the compound of formula (I) and related agents as novel therapeutics for Parkinson's Disease, related human neurodegenerative diseases, and psychosis.

Abstract: Microstructuring flat glass substrates involves mixing chemical etching gas with at least one noble gas to form an etching gas mixture; and performing chemically reactive ion etching process. The proportion of sputtering etching occurring in the ion etching process is increased by the presence of the noble gas in the etching gas mixture and a major portion of the etching gas mixture consists of the chemical etching gas. Microstructuring flat glass substrates involve coating a substrate surface of a flat glass substrate with structured mask layer(s). A chemical etching gas is mixed with at least one noble gas in a mixture ratio of the chemical etching gas to the noble gas of 2:1-6:1 to form an etching gas mixture. A chemically reactive ion etching process is performed, in which the substrate surface coated with the structured mask layer is exposed to the etching gas mixture. The proportion of sputtering etching occurring in the ion etching process is increased by the presence of the noble gas in the etching gas mixture and a major portion of the etching gas mixture consists of the chemical etching gas.

Abstract: Scanning and processing a multi-page document is described. Scan images are generated by optically scanning a sequence of pages of a multi-page document such as a book. The scan images are processed to generate page images corresponding to original pages of the multi-page document, e.g. by deskewing and removing black border areas. After generating a proposed page image it is checked if there is a chance that that image contains errors, by detecting if its image parameters, such as the text area coordinates (X1,X2,X3,X4,Y1,Y2) are according to target criteria which are based on a statistical analysis of the document. If the page image satisfies the target criteria, the page image is automatically accepted. However, if it does not, the page image (65,66) is displayed for an operator to accept or to adjust the page image.
