Abstract: Diagnosing disease, or a predisposition to it, comprises using lipid measurement parameter-modulation/effector ratio profiles. Diagnosing disease, or a predisposition to it, based on lipid measurement parameter-modulation/effector ratio profiles comprises first dividing a test sample into equal parts in which for each lipid parameter (A, B, C...) measurements are made of a zero value (A0 etc.) in the absence of a modulator, a guide value (Am etc.) in the presence of a modulating effector/guide compound, and a further value (A2 etc.) in the presence of another modulating effector. The quantities Am/A0, A2/A0 etc. are derived for each parameter, and the measured values divided by the corresponding value for one or more standard groups to produce normalized ratios which, together, form a normalized modulation ratio profile for the test organism. The ratios A0/B0, B0/A0, A0/C0 etc., Am/Bm, Bm/Am, Am/Cm etc., and A2/B2, B2/A2, A2/C2 etc. are calculated in any combination, and the values divided by corresponding values for standard groups to produce normalized effector ratios which, together, form a normalized effector ratio profile for the test organism. A risk constellation, disease state or predisposition to disease is then confirmed, or excluded, by comparing the normalized profiles with those of control groups that show the relevant constellation, disease or predisposition. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) monitoring progress of therapy by applying the new method after administration or in the presence of a suitable medicine; (2) identifying agents for treating disease by applying the new method after administration or in the presence of a candidate agent; (3) identifying an agent that can trigger disease by applying the new method after administration or in the presence of a test substance; and (4) a measuring instrument for the new method comprising a surface on which specific probes are immobilized.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé d'évaluation d'un procédé de formation d'une structure d'une plaquette qui consiste à extraire le contour d'un motif de masque courant, et à simuler un procédé lithographique au moyen dudit motif de masque afin d'obtenir une structure de plaquette simulée (350'). L'extraction du contour du motif de masque courant peut comprendre, par exemple, l'imagerie du masque courant (107) au moyen d'un microscope électronique à balayage (MEB) (105). Une seconde structure simulée (350'') peut également être obtenue, par simulation du procédé lithographique au moyen de la conception du motif de masque idéal qui a été utilisé afin de produire le motif de masque courant. Ainsi la contribution relative des effets de motif du masque sur les effets globaux de proximité de la plaquette peut être évaluée en comparant les deux structures de plaquette simulées. Cette information peut ensuite être utilisée afin de produire des conceptions de masque à correction de proximité optique (OPC) qui compensent les erreurs de motif du masque et qui offrent de meilleures performances de plaquette.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un mécanisme amélioré destiné à fixer un tube d'alimentation à un système de distribution. Le système de distribution est fixé à un élément de raccordement allongé qui est fixé pivotant à un châssis. Après fixation, l'élément de raccordement allongé tourne afin de venir en contact avec un autre tube à la base du pivot. Avant pivotement, le passage est bloqué par l'interférence de l'élément de raccordement allongé. Lorsque l'élément de raccordement allongé tourne, le système de conduit s'aligne et devient un passage vers et à partir de l'estomac. Le dispositif est un ajustage plastique rigide en trois parties qui résiste à l'usure au bout d'un certain nombre d'utilisations. Ce dispositif protège des éclaboussures survenant lorsqu'un adaptateur d'alimentation est ouvert ou lorsque l'adaptateur ou la valve s'ouvre sous la pression de la toux ou pression gastrique.

Abstract: A liquid-quantity monitoring apparatus includes: a piezoelectric device (106) having a vibrating part (176) capable of being exposed at least partly to a liquid-containing space, the piezoelectric device (106) being capable of vibrating the vibrating part by a given drive signal and of generating a signal representing back electromotive force generated by vibration of the vibrating part; and a liquid-quantity determining unit for determining a quantity of liquid remaining in the liquid-containing space, to which the vibrating part is exposed, based on a resonance frequency of a residual vibration signal output from the piezoelectric device (106) due to a residual vibration of the vibrating part after the vibrating part has been vibrated by the drive signal. The liquid-quantity determining unit counts a number of pulses included in the residual vibration signal, measures a time period necessary for counting a predetermined number of pulses after starting counting the pulses, and determines the quantity of the liquid based on the time period measured. The liquid-quantity determining unit repeats a pulse-counting operation for counting the predetermined number of pulses with different starting time points, and decides that a measurement is incorrect when differences between the time periods are greater than a predetermined allowable limit. <IMAGE>
