Title: The use of mrp 8/14 levels for discrimination of individuals at risk of acute coronary syndromes
Inventor: ALTWEGG LUKAS
IPC: G01N33/68
Filed: 2007-06-01
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for determining the risk whether an individual showing at least one symptom of an evolving acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is suffering from an acute coronary syndrome comprising the steps of (a) measuring, preferably in vitro, the level of MRP 8/14, wherein (b) if the level of MRP 8/14 is at least increased, then the individual is at risk of suffering from an acute coronary syndrome. The invention further relates to methods for ruling out whether an individual showing at least one symptom of an evolving ACS is suffering from an ACS, for assessing whether an individual showing at least one symptom of an evolving ACS is not at risk of suffering from an ACS and to discriminate if an individual showing at least one symptom of an evolving ACS is at risk to suffer from an ACS and or has no ACS.

Title: Radio interface selection for a terminal
Inventor: RAJU LALIT YERRAMILLI
IPC: H04W48/18
Filed: 2007-07-17
Abstract: Techniques for selecting a radio interface for an application are described. A terminal identifies locally-addressable and globally-addressable wireless networks among wireless networks available to the terminal. Radio interfaces supported by the terminal may be prioritized based on the locally-addressable and globally-addressable wireless networks, information obtained for the application, the application type, etc. Different applications may have different radio interface preferences or requirements, which may be considered in prioritizing the radio interfaces. A suitable radio interface may be selected for the application based on the prioritized radio interfaces. WLAN interface may be selected for the application if (a) the WLAN interface is preferred and any WLAN is acceptable to the application or (b) a globally-addressable WLAN is available. A WWAN interface may be selected for the application if a globally-addressable WLAN is not available.

Title: Airborne pico cell security system
Inventor: HARVEY RICHARD LEE
IPC: H04W12/08
Filed: 2007-09-26
Abstract: Security is provided in a wireless communication system in a moving vehicle, e.g. an aircraft, by requiring user input of one or more security codes for validation before the system permits communication. One code, a security access code (SAC), corresponds to the vehicle travel segment (e.g. flight) and is given to the passenger(s) in transit, e.g. after the aircraft reaches a particular altitude. The second type of possible code, a personal identification number (PIN), is given to the passenger after baggage check-in. The PIN code would be correlated to the passenger and/or seat assignment. The use of either or both codes helps prohibit connectivity for mobile phone handsets or other wireless devices stored in the cargo bay or in other baggage. PIN use enables associated data systems to report the seat number or location of all parties engaging in wireless communications within the vehicle.

Inventor: HERNDON ROBERT C JR
IPC: C08J3/12
Filed: 2007-07-18
Abstract: Granules/pastilles of unadulterated brominated anionic styrenic polymer are prepared and provided. They are made by forming a downward plug flow from an orifice in a manifold or nozzle in proximity to a cooled traveling planar member. Such member is impervious to cooling liquid. There is a gap between the lower end of the orifice and the planar member. A portion of a plug of the molten polymer either (i) bridges such gap or (ii) freely drops from the orifice and falls upon the planar member, in either case forming an individual granule/pastille on the planar member and solidifies thereon. The traveling member is cooled by a mist or spray of cooling liquid applied to the underside of the planar member. The granules/pastilles have superior properties.
