Abstract: The retrovirus designated human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), particularly the strains known as HIV type- 1 (HIV -I) and type-2 (HIV -2), have been etiologically linked to the immunosuppressive disease known as acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). HIV seropositive individuals are initially asymptomatic but typically develop AIDS related complex (ARC) followed by AIDS. Affected individuals exhibit severe immunosuppression which makes them highly susceptible to debilitating and ultimately fatal opportunistic infections. The invention is directed to a novel crystalline form of the RT inhibitor 3-chloro-5-({1-[( 4-methyl-5 -oxo-4,5 -dihydro-1H -1,2, 4-triazol-3 -yl)methyl]-2-oxo-4-( trifluoromethy 1 )-1,2-dihydropyridin-3 -yl) oxy )benzonitrile used in the treatment HIV infection and AIDS.

Abstract: Three-dimensional (3D) return vane for a multistage centrifugal compressor. The return channel vane (204, 208) extends upstream to a region proximate the bend apex (210, 212) of the return channel. In each point of the return channel vane, the angle "beta" is defined as the acute angle between the tangent to the local camberline and the local circumferential direction. At each normalised position between leading edge and trailing edge, the local twist of the return channel vane is defined as the algebraic difference [beta_hub-beta_shroud] between the angles beta at the two points at hub and shroud having said normalised position. When moving in streamwise direction from leading edge to trailing edge, the twist first decreases, reaching an algebraic minimum, then increases, reaching an algebraic maximum, then decreases again. However, the absolute twist of the algebraic minimum is larger than the absolute twist of the algebraic maximum.

Abstract: In a target apparatus, a coil spring lies on a linear axis and has open space between its adjacent coils. A sleeve disposed externally and rotatably around the coil spring includes a guide feature that reaches radially inward into the open space of the coil spring in a condition slidable along the coils. At least one arm carries a respective target plate on the sleeve at a radial distance outward therefrom.  Impact of the target plate rotates the sleeve about the axis in a respective rotational direction, which causes translation of the sleeve along the axis in a respective translational direction due to cooperation between the coil spring and the guide feature on the sleeve. Use of a screw mechanism employing a coil spring instead of threads to cause translation of the sleeve under rotation thereof reduces the risk of functionally-detrimental damage to the screw mechanism by a firearm projectile.
