Abstract: An improved holder, system and method for implanting a tissue-type prosthetic mitral heart valve that prevents suture looping and may also constrict the commissure posts of the valve. The holder may include two relatively movable plates, one of which attaches to the valve sewing on the inflow end of the valve ring and the other which attaches via sutures or similar expedient to the valve commissures on the outflow end. Separation of the plates places the sutures in tension and constricts the commissures. The sutures may be strands or filaments, or may be wider bands of flexible biocompatible material. If bands are used, they desirably cover the commissure post tips to further help prevent suture looping thereover. The flexible lengths of material extend directly between commissures of the valve, or may extending radially inward from each commissure to a central upstanding member. Desirably, a slide is created by the flexible lengths of material adjacent each commissure post, for example by crossing over suture filaments at or radially inward from the commissure posts. If an upstanding member is used, the lengths of suture extend axially beyond the commissure post tips to create a tent that wards off sutures that otherwise might loop around the tips during advancement of the valve along an array of pre-implanted sutures.

Abstract: Method and device for controlling the angular speed of an electromechanical drive train with little damping. The control of the speed of the load driven in rotation by an electromechanical drive train with little damping, possibly having transmission nonlinearities such as play, without measuring said speed, is accomplished by using an observer in conjunction with a robust CRONE-type non-integer order controller, the physical realization of which is achieved by an integer order controller obtained by approximation in the frequency domain. The device thus provides good damping for the system in the presence of resonance frequencies and excellent robustness, while still allowing a relatively simple adjustment.

Abstract: The present invention has determined that exogenously added glycosylceramide (GlcCer) and other neutral glycolipids such as the homologous Glc-containing globotriaosylceramide (Gb3Cer), dose-dependently prolonged clotting times of normal plasma in the presence but not absence of APC:protein S, indicating GlcCer or Gb3Cer can enhance protein C pathway anticoagulant activity. In studies using purified proteins, inactivation of factor Va by APC:protein S was enhanced by GlcCer alone and by GlcCer, globotriaosylceramide, lactosylceramide, and galactosylceramide in multicomponent vesicles containing phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylcholine. Thus, the present invention provides neutral glycolipids such as GlcCer and Gb3Cer, as anticoagulant cofactors that contribute to the antithrombotic activity of the protein C pathway. The present invention has also determined that a deficiency of plasma GlcCer is a risk factor for thrombosis. Methods are provided to determine individuals at risk for thrombosis, methods of treatment as well as methods of screening for antithrombotic factors from neutral glycolipids.

Abstract: Selon l'invention, un produit non conducteur est immergé dans un liquide à suspension de poudre de semiconducteur et irradié dans ce liquide par une lumière pour former des radicaux polaires sur sa surface. Un dépôt autocatalytique est ensuite réalisé sur la surface formée par les radicaux polaires. Ce dépôt autocatalytique est réalisé après traitement par irradiation aux ultraviolets d'un produit résineux, par l'intermédiaire d'eau ou d'une solution aqueuse. Un dépôt autocatalytique ou un dépôt électrolytique est également réalisé sur la couche à dépôt autocatalytique au moyen d'un métal de même nature ou de nature différente. On obtient ainsi un produit non conducteur métallisé ne causant pas de problèmes de pollution environnementale et ne produisant pas de déchets liquides. Ce produit comprend une couche de revêtement métallique et une surface de produit non conducteur fermement liées. L'utilisation de la résine empêche la déformation thermique du matériau résineux et améliore la résistance de collage du film de revêtement métallique.
