Patent CA-2145418-A1 (CA)
Title: Pulmonary delivery of active fragments of parathyroid hormone
Inventor: PATTON JOHN S
IPC: A61K9/00
Filed: 1993-09-29
Abstract: Systemic delivery of parathyroid hormone to a mammalian host is accomplished by inhalation through the mouth of a dis-persion of an N-terminal fragment of PTH. It has been found that such respiratory delivery of the PTH fragment provides a pul-satile concentration profile of the PTH in the host's serum. PTH fragment compositions include dry powder formulations having the PTH present in a dry bulking powder, liquid solutions or suspensions suitable for nebulization, and aerosol propellants suit-able for use in a metered dose inhaler.

Title: Method and system for creating, specifying, and generating parametric fonts
Inventor: BAUERMEISTER BENJAMIN P
IPC: G06F40/00
Filed: 1994-06-10
Abstract: A method and system for parametrically generating characters and fonts. A font generation system (10) allows a user to create a Terafont binary file (34). The user can create a new font, or replicate an existing font. The parametric data are distributed as files or embedded in documents. One or more characters of a font are generated using a font engine (30) that executes the Terafont binary file on a computer using the parametric data specifying that font as an input. The parametric data provided to the font engine at least include a minimal set of font measurement data, such as a PANOSE .TM. number, which are used to compute global variables representing typographic characteristics common to many-if not all-of the glyphs in the font. Additional global and local variables needed to capture nuances of individual characters are computed or assigned default values by the font engine (30).

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for determining an indication of a nonlinear property of the formation. A sonic tool is used in a borehole to generate a signal having multiple cycles of a wave of a predetermined frequency. The amplitude of a tube wave resulting from the signal is measured.  The measured amplitude is then used to determine an indication of the nonlinearity of the formation according to a relationship which relates the measured amplitude to the amplitude of a second harmonic tube wave which is generated in the borehole by the tube wave of the predetermined frequency due to the nonlinear property of the formation. The indication of nonlinearity may then be utilized to give an indication of the relative consolidation of the formation surrounding the borehole.

Abstract: A system for determining formation gas saturation in a cased wellbore is disclosed. The system includes a neutron logging tool having a source, a first neutron detector offset towards the wellbore primarily sensitive to the wellbore and a second detector spaced further from the source and offset towards the formation, so that the second detector is sensitive primarily to liquid-filled porosity in the formation. The detectors are encased in a neutron moderator. The system includes a method of determining gas saturation in the formation by measuring count rates at the detectors, generating a wellbore gas saturation from the first detector counting rate, generating a ratio of counting rates of the second and first detectors to generate a value of liquid-filled porosity in the formation, and calculating a gas saturation in the formation by combining the liquid-filled porosity with a measurement of total porosity. The total porosity measurement can be obtained from core samples or other well logs run before the casing in set in the wellbore.

Filed: 1996-04-04
Abstract: A method of increasing the HDL concentration and the HDL/LDL concentration ratio in human serum by providing a balance between a sufficient and required proportion of cholesterol-free saturated fatty acids in the daily dietary fat of the human and a sufficient and required, but not excessive, proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids comprising linoleic acid in dietary fat, while the remaining proportion of fatty acids and energy from the dietary fat is provided by monounsaturated fatty acids comprising oleic acid. The saturated fatty acids must constitute between 20% and 40% by weight of the daily dietary fat based upon dietary fat accounting for 30% of the total dietary energy consumption, and linoleic acid must constitute between 15% and 40% by weight of dietary fat. In this way, the required proportional intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids enhances the formation of HDL from VLDL and/or decreases the clearance of HDL, while an excessive proportional intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids and monounsaturated fatty acids is avoided to assure a sufficient dietary availability of saturated fatty acids which are required for sufficient VLDL synthesis and HDL production.
