Abstract: A system for remotely monitoring the medical condition of a number of individual patients from a centralized location. The system includes a plurality of remote monitoring units that each include both a wireless transmission device and a conventional modem for communicating over voice telephone lines. The dual modes of transmission allow the remote monitoring unit to communicate either over a wireless communication network, if available or over conventional telephone wires. Once the vital sign data has been acquired, the control unit of the remote monitoring unit determines whether a wireless transmission network is available. Based on the availability of the wireless communication network, the control unit of the remote monitoring unit selects either a wireless transmission or a conventional modem transmission method for the vital sign data. The vital sign data is compiled in a main data collection station that stores an displays the vital sign data for each patient being monitored. The vital sign data contained within the main data collection station is accessible by multiple workstations through conventional web-based communication techniques.

In particular, the control region of delta-5-desaturase gene is taught as a target for the drug screening methods, which serve to identify nucleotides, proteins, compounds and/or other pharmacological agents, which modulate the activity of desaturase enzymes or regulate the level of expression of the desaturase genes. Cell-based and cell lysate assays are taught for detecting components that interact with the desaturase enzymes and modify fatty acid profiles. In addition, cell-based and cell lysate assays are used to identify functional and regulatory elements controlling expression of the desaturase genes as well as to screen for components that modulate the transcriptional activity of the desaturase genes. Also taught is the gene for rat delta-5-desaturase.

Abstract: An electronic circuit has a plurality of sub-circuits. Clock gate circuits supply gated clock signals to data storage elements of the sub-circuits. The clock gate circuits have gate inputs for receiving gate signals that commands blocking passage of the clock signal. Data can be transferred between data storage elements between two of the subcircuits. A detector circuit flags invalid data in the data storage element of the second one of the sub-circuits. The detector circuit has a flag storage element arranged to set a flag when the clock gate circuit of the second one of the sub-circuits passes the clock signal for the second one of the sub-circuits after the clock gate of the first one of the sub-circuits has blocked the clock signal for the first one of the sub-circuits. The flag indicates the relative phase of the clocks signals of different sub-circuits when the clocks are stopped. The flag is used to invalidate data in the data storage element of the second one of the sub-circuits.
