Abstract: An energy dissipation device for dissipating unwanted energy associated with a shock or impact force is provided. The device comprises a block (2) of relatively rigid material, a passageway in the block (2), the passageway having an angled portion of substantially constant cross-sectional shape and area, a plug (5) of relatively deformable material in the passageway and an impact receptor (6) of relatively rigid material. The arrangement is such that, when a force is applied to the impact receptor (6), the impact receptor moves at least partially into the passageway and impacts upon the plug (5) to cause the plug to be driven around the angled portion of the passageway. The passageway in the block (2) may alternatively have the form of a cavity. A method of dissipating energy is also provided comprising providing a block (2) of relatively rigid resilient material containing a passageway, the passageway having an angled portion and driving a plug (5) of relatively deformable material around the angled portion of the passageway.

Abstract: The invention relates to an external programming device for an implant, comprising a receiver for receiving data vis-a-vis the implant and a display unit with a control unit for the repesentation of signals underlying said data. A switching unit, which is connected to the control unit of the display unit, is provided in order to switch the representation of time-continuous signals such as those of an intracardial ECG between a first and second representation mode. The time-continuous signals are represented in a continuous manner in the first mode by representing current display values respectively on the same horizontal display position and all previous signal values are represented with a respectively new, current signal value on the display in a horizontally offset manner to the left or right. The time continuous signals are represented in a continuous manner in the second mode by representing the respectively current signal values in a new display position of said display unit in conjunction with previous signal values, whereby previous signal values maintain their previous position.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un mécanisme selon lequel des composés de quinol stéroïdien ont un effet bénéfique sur l'oeil. Lesdits composés présentent un équilibre lipophile-hydrophile favorisant la pénétration transcornéenne et se transforment facilement en composés stéroïdiens à cycle A phénolique assurant une protection et/ou le traitement de différents symptômes ou troubles de l'oeil. Ces prodrogues présentent une solubilité des lipides optimale pour la pénétration transcornéenne et se transforment facilement d'agents réducteurs endogènes en composés stéroïdiens à cycle A phénolique. Dans la mesure où ces prodrogues ont peu d'effets féminisants et une faible toxicité systémique, on peut en attendre une protection et un traitement de l'oeil contre des troubles telles que la cataracte et le glaucome, sans toutefois présenter d'effets secondaires.
