Abstract: The invention is a conveying wire ( 2 ) with disc-shaped conveying members ( 8 ) for use in endless tube conveyor systems. The wire ( 3 ) consists of a number of twisted strands ( 4 ) that each are made of thin threads or fibers, and including an outer jacket ( 6 ) to which the conveying members ( 8 ) are fastened directly by injection molding, where the outer jacket ( 6 ) consists of a polymer with a melting temperature which is lower than the melting temperature of the plastic material from which the conveying members are injection molded. The wire ( 3 ) is, for example, made as a balanced (torsionally neutral) wire consisting of at least three strands that each are made of very thin synthetic fibers which are individually surface treated with a polymer, providing great bending wearability to the fibers and good adhesion to the outer jacket ( 6 ) which consists of a polymer. The fact that the melting temperature of the disc material is higher than the melting temperature of jacket material produces a local softening of the outer jacket locally at the conveying members, so that an almost optimally good connection between the conveying members and the wire via the outer jacket is established.

Abstract: A respiratory suction catheter apparatus includes a suction catheter that has a tubular portion with a distal end. The suction catheter may be adapted for removing fluids from a patient by insertion of the tubular portion into an artificial airway of the patient and application of negative pressure to a lumen of the tubular portion. A catheter attachment section is present and has a proximal end that is attached to the suction catheter, and has a distal end that is configured for releasable attachment with an artificial airway structure that is attached to the patient. A valve is located in the catheter attachment section. The valve has a closed position that at least substantially blocks the passageway of the catheter attachment section which causes the tubular portion to be substantially isolated from the artificial airway of the patient. The valve has an open position that allows the tubular portion of the suction catheter to be advanced through the catheter attachment section and into the artificial airway of the patient.

Abstract: A broadcast service for transmission to mobile terminals 10a-10c in a cellular communication system comprises a series of burst B1-B5 of data packets in a transport stream 7. Where the available data transmission rates in cells C1, C2 are unequal, the transport stream 7a for transmission to the cell C1 with the higher data transmission rate is modified by incorporating additional payload L1-L5 in each burst in the series, for example by appending the additional payload to each burst or by interleaving the burst data and additional payload (FIG. 7) so that a time interval t; between adjacent bursts B1-B5 is the same in both cells C1, C2. Therefore, start times of the transmission of each burst B1-B5 in both cells C1, C2 are synchronised, i.e. the transmission of each burst B1-B5 begins simultaneously in both cells C1 or a time interval to between the start of transmission of each burst in cells C1, C2 is fixed (FIG. 5). This allows a mobile terminal 10b operating in a selective data reception mode to continue receiving a service without disruption when moving across a cell boundary 11. The incorporation of the additional payload may be performed by a digital broadcast head-end 26 or by an apparatus 13 associated with a transmitter 8 serving a cell C1.

Abstract: Cells present in adipose tissue are used to promote wound healing in a patient. Methods of treating patients include processing adipose tissue to deliver a concentrated amount of regenerative cells obtained from the adipose tissue to a patient. The methods may be practiced in a closed system so that the regenerative cells are not exposed to an external environment prior to being administered to a patient. Accordingly, in a preferred method, cells present in adipose tissue are placed directly into a recipient along with such additives necessary to promote, engender or support a therapeutic benefit.
