Patent EP-2520249-A1 (EP)
Inventor: YU QIFENG
IPC: A61F2/24
Filed: 2010-12-30
Abstract: An invasive cardiac valve comprises a tubular stent (1) and a valve (2). One end of the tubular stent (1) is of a frusto-conical structure, the other end is wide open, and the diameter of the open end is greater than the diameter of the frusto-conical end. The valve (2) is attached to the frusto-conical end of the tubular stent (1); and a delivery and retrieval hole (4) of the cardiac valve is provided at the top of the open end of the tubular stent (1). Because the diameter of the open end is greater than the diameter of the frusto-conical end, the cardiac valve can be effectively fixed in a position of aortic annulus to prevent the cardiac valve displacement caused by the impact of the blood flow. Because the valve (2) is attached to the frusto-conical end of the tubular stent (1), the valve (2) can totally avoid the left and right coronary ostia and does not affect the haemodynamics of the coronary artery. Because a delivery and retrieval hole (4) of the cardiac valve is provided at the top of the open end of the tubular stent (1), the cardiac valve can be retrieved and reset at any time by handle control if it is found to be placed in an improper position during the release process.

Abstract: A computerized software development system is provided for developing software programs using a structured development methodology. A communication server communicates a specification for the design of a software program to a first plurality of developers and a design submission for development of a software program in accordance with the structured development methodology to a second plurality of developers. A server receives over the network, a design submission from each of a subset of the first plurality of developers, and a development submission comprising one or more software components and/or applications and one or more test cases for testing the received development submission from each of a subset of the second plurality of developers. A review subsystem facilitates a submission review process that scores each of the received design and development submissions and selects one design or development submission. A posting subsystem identifies functions within the development system accessible to individual developers based on the respective roles attributed to the developers during the design or development phases of the software program. A testing subsystem tests some or all of the submitted development submissions using the test cases received from one or more developer of the second plurality of software developers by executing an automated test on a component or application of a development submission to verify and/or measure memory usage, thread usage, machine statistics and processor load. The selection of the development submission is based at least in part on the results of the testing process. Each of the communication server, the server, the review subsystem and the testing system are used in series (i) for design of a software program and (ii) for subsequent development of the software program. The selected design submission is used as an input to the software development phase such that the specification for the development of the software program comprises the selected design submission and conforms to the structured development methodology.

Abstract: The present invention aims at preventing foodborne infections. As a candidate for this purpose, the inventors focused on antibacterial acidic liquid diets, which are acidic due to comprising fermented dairy products as protein source. The antibacterial activity of the acidic liquid diets was compared with the antibacterial activity of a neutral liquid diet and the fermented dairy product used as the basic ingredient. Antibacterial effect of fermented milk such as yogurt is already known. However, the acidic liquid diets unexpectedly exhibited an antibacterial effect higher than the basic ingredient (the fermented dairy product) against Gram-positive bacteria such as MRSA, which are important in terms of public health.
