Title: Cardiac monitoring system and method with multiple implanted transponders
Inventor: BEUTLER ARTHUR J
IPC: A61B5/07
Filed: 2002-04-04
Abstract: A plurality of radio frequency passive transponders are attached to an animal's organ, such as the heart. Each passive transponder may be attached to the surface of the organ or mounted on a stent that is implanted in a blood vessel of the organ. An interrogator periodically sends an signal to each passive transponder which reacts by transmitting a reply signal. The interrogator processes the reply signals to derive information regarding activity of the organ. In one embodiment, the position of each passive transponder is determined from the reply signals, thereby enabling information about organ movement and volume change to be derived. In another embodiment, data from a sensor on the passive transponder is sent via the reply signal.

Patent CA-2387308-A1 (CA)
Title: Apparatus and method for removing joint rings from cured concrete products
Inventor: STOLLER DAVID
IPC: B28B17/00
Filed: 2002-05-24
Abstract: As a part of the manufacture of concrete prodcts, such as concrete pipe, manholes and the like, the joint rings applied during the casting process must be removed. The invention relates to a joint ring removal system in which a vertically oriented concrete product, containing a joint ring, is gripped to hold the product stationary while a joint ring pulling force is applied. Then, a shocking force is applied laterally to the joint ring to free it from the concrete joint. The amount of pulling force applied to the joint ring is less than that required to separate the joint ring from the concrete while the shocking force is applied in a direction transverse to the pulling force so that no harmful tensile shocking forces are transmitted to the concrete joint. The pulling force on the joint ring is variably applied and timed with the shocking force.

Title: Hormone receptor functional entities and methods of their use
Inventor: GAGE FRED H
IPC: C07K14/72
Filed: 2000-10-17
Abstract: The invention provides chimeric proteins having at least two functional protein units, each containing the dimerization domain of a member of the steroid/thyroid hormone nuclear receptor superfamily. The chimeric proteins can fold under crystallization conditions to form functional entities. The functional entities optionally contain a novel flexible peptide linker of variable lengths between at least two of the protein units. In a preferred embodiment, the linker is designed to be increased in increments of 12 amino  acids each to aid in preparation of variant chimeric proteins. The DNA bindi ng characteristics of the invention functional entities differ from those of wi ld- type complexes formed between "monomeric" receptors and their binding partners. Some functional entities, e.g. dimers expressed as fusion proteins , transactivate responsive promoters in a manner similar to wild-type complexe s, while others do not promote transactivation and function instead essentially  as constitutive repressors. The invention further provides nucleotide sequences encoding the invention chimeric proteins, cells containing such nucleotide sequences, and methods for using the invention chimeric proteins to modulate expression of one or more exogenous genes in a subject organism. In  addition, isolated protein crystals suitable for x-ray diffraction analysis and methods for obtaining putative ligands for the invention chimeric protei ns are provided.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des procédés et des systèmes destinés à utiliser un nombre accru d'échantillons de données d'image, couplé à la nature, contrôlable séparément, de sous-composants de pixel RVB, afin de produire, sur un dispositif d'affichage (98), des images dont la résolution est améliorée, par exemple sur un affichage à cristaux liquides. Les procédés comprennent des opérations d'homothétie (86), de nuançage (88), de conversion de balayage (90). L'opération d'homothétie (86) consiste à faire un changement d'échelle d'un facteur un dans les directions perpendiculaires et parallèles à la segmentation RVB du dispositif d'affichage. L'opération de nuançage (88) consiste à placer les données d'image changées d'échelle sur une grille dont les points sont définis par les positions des pixels du dispositif d'affichage, et à arrondir les points clés à la limite du pixel complet le plus proche dans la direction parallèle à la segmentation et à l'incrément fractionnel le plus proche dans la direction perpendiculaire à la segmentation. L'opération de conversion de balayage (90) consiste à réaliser un changement d'échelle sur les données d'image nuancées d'un facteur sur-homothétique (92) dans la direction perpendiculaire à la segmentation. Le facteur de sur-homothétie (92) est équivalent au dénominateur des incréments fractions de la grille. La conversion de balayage (90) consiste aussi à produire (94), pour chaque région des données d'image, un nombre d'échantillons égal au facteur de sur-homothétie et à faire correspondre des ensembles spatialement différents des échantillons à chacun des sous-composants de pixel.
