Abstract: Agonists of vascular endothelial sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors are described. Compounds such as FTY720 can be phosphorylated by sphingosine kinase-2 into the phosphorylated forms which serve as sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor agonists. The vascular endothelial sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor agonists are employed in methods of treating a mammal for vascular permeability disorders and unwanted vascular endothelial cell apoptosis, and for the growth of new blood vessels. The sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor agonists can be used for the manufacture of a medicament for treating vascular permeability disorders and unwanted vascular endothelial cell apoptosis, and for the growth of new blood vessels

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un programme informatique permettant de détecter l'inattention d'un conducteur de véhicule, en particulier de véhicule automobile. Le principe des procédés de ce type est connu dans l'art antérieur. Ces procédés exploitent l'angle de rotation du volant dans le véhicule, mais uniquement pour détecter une éventuelle phase de repos dans le maniement du volant, la présence de cette phase de repos permettant d'inférer l'état d'inattention du conducteur. L'objectif de cette invention est de pouvoir établir avec fiabilité l'inattention éventuelle du conducteur. A cet effet, le procédé selon l'invention prend en compte, non seulement la présence d'une phase de repos dans le maniement du volant, mais aussi l'exécution d'une action de braquage après cette phase de repos. L'expression de la phase de repos et de l'action de braquage sont déterminées, puis combinées, et le résultat de cette combinaison sert à mesurer le degré d'inattention du conducteur.

Abstract: A lower guillotine cutter blade (2) is mounted to a frame (1). A guillotine cutter-blade holder (3) holds an upper guillotine cutter blade (4) and vertically reciprocates with respect to the lower guillotine cutter blade (2). Rods (6) are vertically slidably mounted to the guillotine cutter-blade holder (3). A pressing plate (5) is secured to the lower ends of the rods (6). Springs (7) are fitted around the rods (6) between the guillotine cutter-blade holder (3) and the pressing plate (5) for downwardly elastically biasing the rods (6) so that the heads (6a) of the rods are kept abutted against the guillotine cutter-blade holder (3). In a cutting operation, after the pressing plate (5) is brought into abutment with a batch of paper (20), the guillotine cutter-blade holder (3) is further downwardly moved, thereby causing the lower and upper guillotine cutter blades (2 and 4) to cut the batch of paper (20) and also causing the heads (6a) to upwardly protrude from the guillotine cutter-blade holder (3). At this time, a sensor (8) mounted to the guillotine cutter-blade holder (3) detects the distance to the heads (6a). A thickness measuring element (27) determines the thickness of the batch of paper (2) on the basis of the detection signal.

Abstract: This invention relates to apparatus and methods for use in sealing a vascular puncture site and to apparatus and methods for properly locating and deploying a sealing device. The locating apparatus includes a lumen which extends from an opening in the distal region of the apparatus but located proximally of the sealing device, which lumen extends to another opening in the proximal region of the device. When the distal opening is in communication with blood in a blood vessel, blood flow through the lumen and out of the proximal opening signifies such location to the user. When the sealing device is withdrawn such that the sealing device is deployed such that it blocks the blood flow into the distal port, the user will know the location of the sealing device. In a preferred embodiment, the sealing device is then withdrawn proximally a predetermined distance to assure that no part of the sealing device extends into the blood vessel lumen. The sealing device is then detached from the delivery device.
