Abstract: A cardiac harness for treating congestive heart failure is disclosed. The harness applies elastic, compressive reinforcement on the left ventricle to reduce deleterious wall tension and to resist shape change of the ventricle during the mechanical cardiac cycle. Rather than imposing a dimension beyond which the heart cannot expand, the harness provides no hard limit over the range of diastolic expansion of the ventricle. Instead, the harness follows the contour of the heart throughout diastole and continuously exerts gentle resistance to stretch. Also disclosed is a method of delivering the cardiac harness to the heart minimally invasively.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for at least in part decreasing the production of an aberrant protein in a cell, said cell comprising pre-mRNA comprising exons coding for said protein, by inducing so-called exon skipping in said cell. Exon-skipping results in mature mRNA that does not contain the skipped exon which leads to an altered product if said exon codes for amino acids. Exon skipping is performed by providing a cell with an agent capable of specifically inhibiting an exon inclusion signal, for instance an exon recognition sequence, of said exon. Said exon inclusion signal can be interfered with by a nucleic acid comprising complementarity to a part of said exon. Said nucleic acid, which is also herewith provided, can be used for the preparation of a medicament, for instance for the treatment of an inherited disease.

Abstract: The invention is a cable assembly in which the ripcord (10, 11) is bonded or woven to the cable assembly's armor tape. This arrangement helps to prevent the ripcords from moving from their initial position, therefore allowing better dissection of a cable sheath and/or jacket. The cable assembly includes a cable core (e.g., soft buffer tubes surrounding optical fibers, a tape (20) surrounding the cable core, at least one ripcord (10, 11) attached to the tape, and a cable jacket (30) surrounding the tape. In a second embodiment of the present invention, a cable assembly includes a cable core having a predetermined axial length, a cable jacket for housing the cable core along the predetermined axial length of the cable core, and a ripcord disposed between the cable core and the cable jacket along the predetermined axial length, in a manner that the ripcord is contained within the predetermined axial length, but the ripcord has a length substantially longer that the predetermined axial length. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the ripcord is disposed along the predetermined axial length in a wavy shape, thus the ripcord is made "flexible", alleviating damage to the cable assembly that can occur from ripcord tension. . <IMAGE>

Abstract: In the pyrolytic oil-production index method, or POPI method, the numerical values obtained by the application of the prior art POPI method are standardized or normalized. In another aspect, the POPI method and associated data are employed in combination with other empirically determined information to provide values of (1) the API gravity for the reservoir oil; (2) the Apparent Water Saturation (AS W ) of the reservoir rock; and (3) the cementation and saturation exponents that are used in the Archie equation for calculating the water saturation in the oil-reservoir rock. This method results in the standardization of the numerical values derived by the POPI method. Applying the normalization or standardization process to the POPI method results in the conversion of the numerical value of POPI O  for good oil-producing reservoir rock to a standard value.

Abstract: A ribbon used in binding and decorating includes two separate superposed flat films of polyolefin plastic, which are bonded or glued together to form an intimate union, the films differing form each other by their elastic elongaton and/or heat-shrinkage properties such that, on leaving the production equipment, the difference between the films results in a different extent of shortening between the two films, to thereby cause curving of their constituted assembly. The curving is contained within a range of elastic deformation compatible with the curvature of the subsequent winding of the ribbon and such as to create spontaneous curling of the ribbon at the ambient temperatures at which it is used, as soon as it is unwound.

Abstract: A hybrid vehicle of the present invention includes a brake 62 that fixes a sun gear shaft 31a linked with a sun gear 31 of a power distribution integration mechanism 30, and a clutch 64 that mechanically connects a drive shaft 36 with a motor MG2 and releases the mechanical connection of the drive shaft 36 with the motor MG2. In the case of a relatively low vehicle speed, the power of an engine 22 is subjected to torque conversion by the power distribution integration mechanism and motors MG1 and MG2 and is output to the drive shaft 36, while the brake 62 is in OFF position and the clutch 64 is in ON position. In the case of a relatively high vehicle speed, on the other hand, the power of the engine 22 is directly output to the drive shaft 36, while the brake 62 is in ON position and the clutch 64 is in OFF position. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A shock sensor has a shock sensing magnetic mass that rides on the inside of a glass tube that is sealed about a reed switch. The reed switch has a first stop positioned so that the shock sensing magnetic mass when resting against the first stop does not cause the reeds of the reed switch to attract. A spring extends between the shock sensing magnetic mass and a second stop. Acceleration causes the sensing mass to accelerate toward the second stop. The motion of the magnetic sensing mass causes the switch reeds to attract and close the reed switch. The entire shock sensing mechanism is hermetically sealed within the glass capsule of the reed switch. The reed switch within the glass capsule detects movement of the shock sensing mass.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are presented that facilitate electrophoresis of prior-cast, hydratable separation media, usefully immobilized pH gradient (IPG) strips. The method exploits the swelling of prior-cast, hydratable separation media upon rehydration to help lodge the media in an enclosing member that permits spaced electrical communication with the enclosed separation media. The electrical communication permits a voltage gradient to be established in the enclosed separation medium sufficient to effect separation of analytes therein. Cassettes, buffer cores, electrophoresis systems and kits are presented for effecting the methods of the invention.

Abstract: A process is provided to produce water that will meet the specifications of the United States Pharmacopeia Inc. for Purified Water and Water for Injection, and water for dialysis as circumscribed by the American Association for Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI). The system has no storage tanks where stagnant water will be fouled by biofilm colonizing the tank surface. Water is circulated throughout the purification system and drawn as required, on demand. The water is purified and used immediately or recycled and repurified to ensure quality. Sanitation of the purification system, maintaining microbiological purity and cleaning is done by controlling the pH so that it is normally acidic by maintaining a high carbon dioxide concentration in solution, the carbon dioxide being allowed to pass into the permeate from a reverse osmosis membrane assembly used to purify the water.
