Abstract: A separator for use in connection with a liquid bath-type vacuum cleaner system. The separator includes an annular, cup-like housing adapted to rotate axially about its vertical axis for generating a centrifugal force to be applied to intake air therein; and a plurality of intake/exhaust slots particulates entrained in the intake air and liquid particulates from a liquid bath to be drawn into an interior area of the housing and coalesce therein, whereby the coalesced particulates are subjected to centrifugal force and are thereby separated from the intake air. The intake/exhaust slots further enable the coalesced particulates to be forcibly expelled from the interior area of the housing therethrough as they are forced radially outwards by the centrifugal force generated by the rapid, axial rotation of the housing.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des améliorations dans la préparation de pâte chimique de bois cellulosique utilisée dans la fabrication du papier, et en particulier l'amélioration de la qualité d'une pâte kraft qui a été soumise à un blanchiment au dioxyde de chlore/chlore puis à une ozonation avant de passer dans un étage d'extraction dans la séquence de blanchiment. La pâte améliorée de la présente invention se caractérise par une réduction des restes de chlore liés organiquement dans la pâte de bois et des halogénures organiques adsorbés (AOX) dans l'effluent, et posséde une bonne brillance et une bonne viscosité. Les avantages de la présente invention peuvent être obtenus au moyen d'une séquence de blanchiment qui utilise un minimum d'étages, à savoir (D←C)ZED ou DcZED qui s'accompagne d'investissements relativement plus faibles que ceux qui étaient nécessaires jusqu'à présent.

Abstract: Disclosed are sustained release dosage forms of liothyronine, in combination with normal or sustained release of thyroxine in a molar ratio of about 1 to 50 : 1, especially 5 to 20 : 1, useful in thyroid hormone replacement therapy. Surprisingly, it is found that by incorporating liothyronine and optionally thyroxine into a prolonged action dosage form in the described ratios, that the side effects associated with thyroid hormone replacement therapy are greatly reduced or eliminated. The preparation can be a dosage form containing salts of both thyroxine and liothyronine which release in a sustained manner. The preparations will typically contain 5 to 25 mu g of liothryronine. Also disclosed are processes of manufacturing the pharmaceutical preparations. The compositions are useful in treating disease states such as hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism (in combination with thyrostatic drugs), so-called "TSH" suppressive therapy, and depression.

Abstract: In a multi-system data sharing complex 10, 12, 13, a database system can write updated pages to a shared electronic store 16, for a fast write. Other database systems can obtain pages written to the shared store for further modification without the pages first being written to stable storage 14, 15. However, pages are eventually written to the stable storage in a castout process. Recovery of a database from failure of the shared store is bounded by determination of a recovery boundary which, when applied to the union of database system transaction logs, establishes a point in front of which are found log records of modifications to pages which were in the shared store when it failed. These log records are applied to page versions obtained from stable storage to recover from failure of the shared store. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Un ou plusieurs guides à fibres acoustiques (725-1) sont utilisés pour guider certains modes d'énergie acoustique à la pointe d'un cathéter. Grâce à l'utilisation de ces fibres, on peut procéder à des mesures par refléxion du son (effet Doppler acoustique) dans un milieu sanguin (701) sans exposer le patient aux risques généralement associés à l'utilisation d'un transducteur électrique à l'extrémité distale de cathéter. Grâce à la réduction de taille obtenue, la sonde Doppler permet de procéder à des opérations de contrôle de la circulation sanguine dans les artères coronaires. Grâce à l'addition de fibres optiques (725-2) enduites de colorants spécifiques et excitées par une énergie optique de longueur d'onde appropriée, ce système de pointe de cathéter peut également être utilisé simultanément, dans une structure combinée (monobloc), comme moniteur optique de mesure de pH et de gazométrie sanguine utilisant la fluorescence optique et comme transducteur de mesure de vitesse par effet Doppler acoustique.

Abstract: L'invention décrit un dispositif s'utilisant en combinaison avec un dispositif médical servant à stimuler le nerf pneumogastrique d'un patient, afin de moduler son activité électrique en fonction d'une thérapie prescrite; ledit dispositif supprime sélectivement la stimulation pendant que le patient parle, afin d'éviter une modulation indésirable de la voix. Le dispositif de suppression comprend un détecteur de parole et un discriminateur, afin de détecter le fait que le patient parle, tout en évitant une détection erronée attribuable à des sons autres que la parole. La suppression de la stimulation du nerf s'arrête après un intervalle temporel prédéterminé, indépendemment de la détection continue de la parole, afin de s'assurer que le processus thérapeutique n'est pas gêné par des considérations purement esthétiques ou en présence de détections inexactes prolongées. Dans le mode de réalisation préféré, le discriminateur modifie sélectivement la sensibilité du dispositif de suppression à la parole du patient, afin d'augmenter sa sélectivité par rapport à des sons attribuables à d'autres sources. Le dispositif comprend un ensemble d'électrodes (40), une sonde électrique (42), un générateur (10) et un lecteur manuel (55).
