Abstract: A method for decoding an encoded video signal representing a sequence of pictures, the method comprising: 
- determining that a corresponding area of a default reference picture, for use in forming a motion compensated prediction for an area of a current picture, has been corrupted or lost; 
- examining an indicator provided in the encoded video signal to identify an area of an alternative reference picture that is sufficiently similar to the corresponding area of the default reference picture; and 
- forming a motion compensated prediction for the area of the current picture using the identified sufficiently similar area of the alternative reference picture.

Abstract: A device for the evanescent illumination of a sample, including an optical illumination element with an optical corrective element and an objective arranged downstream from the corrective element, to evanescently illuminate the sample with a supplied ray beam containing optical radiation with at least two different wavelengths. The corrective optical element has a transverse chromatic aberration which, during the illumination, leads to the optical radiation penetrating the pupil of the objective at different heights relative to the optical axis varying according to the wavelength. The corrective optical element is selected in such a way that the wavelength-related difference of the penetration depths of the radiation into the sample is reduced during the evanescent illumination.

Abstract: A method and kit for detecting the early onset of renal tubular cell injury, utilizing NGAL as an early urinary biomarker. NGAL is a small secreted polypeptide that is protease resistant and consequently readily detected in the urine following renal tubule cell injury. NGAL protein expression is detected predominantly in proximal tubule cells, in a punctate cytoplasms distribution reminiscent of a secreted protein. The appearance NGAL in the urine is related to the dose and duration of renal ischemia and nephrotoxemia, and is diagnostic of renal tubule cell injury and renal failure. NGAL detection is also a useful marker for monitoring the nephrotoxic side effects of drugs or other therapeutic agents.

Abstract: A sequence of k-tuples of information elements is converted by means of an error-correcting convolutional code into a sequence of n-tuples (n greater than k) of code elements. In the processing of the code elements use is made of first of all a syndrome former to form a sequence of (n-k)-tuples of syndrome elements from the n-received sequence of n-tuples of code elements. From a segment of a number of successive (n-k)-tuples of syndrome elements one or more correction bits are formed in each case so as to be able to correct the received code bits and also, if a correction is applied, to be able to update a number of further syndrome bits from that same segment. Furthermore an (n-k)-tuple of secondary syndrome bits or residue bits is formed in each case from this updated segment. A first value of such an (n-k)-tuple indicates the state in which the decoder must be provisionally considered as having corrected all errors in a predetermined sequence of n-tuples of code elements. Any other values indicate that an error has remained uncorrected. Such other values are converted into unreliability signals. The unreliability signal indicates a sub-sequence of n-tuples of code elements, in which the errors not corrected are located. Outside this sub-sequence the n-tuples can be reliable again.
