Abstract: Selon l'invention, l'inhalation de bas niveaux d'oxyde nitrique peut rapidement et en toute sécurité diminuer l'hypertension pulmonaire chez les mammifères. L'administration précise d'oxyde nitrique à des niveaux thérapeutiques compris entre 20 et 100 ppm et le fait d'inhiber la réaction de l'oxyde nitrique avec l'oxygène pour former des impuretés toxiques telles que du dioxyde d'azote peut constituer une inhalothérapie efficace contre l'hypertension pulmonaire.

Abstract: L'invention concerne de nouvelles méthodes pour l'évaluation du risque de cancer dans la population générale. Selon lesdites méthodes, on utilise des allèles particuliers de deux ou plusieurs gènes, en combinaison, afin d'identifier les individus présentant un risque élevé ou faible de développer un cancer. On prend comme exemple l'évaluation du risque de cancer du sein chez les femmes. De plus, on utilise des renseignements personnels tels que l'âge et la race pour affiner encore l'analyse. Grâce à de telles méthodes, il est possible de redistribuer les coûts médicaux pour le dépistage du cancer chez les sous-populations de patients présentant un risque élevé de développer un cancer. Cela permet également l'identification des candidats au traitement prophylactique du cancer.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for providing virtual capacity to a service provider. A service provider contacts a third party service provider when the service provider can not perform services for a customer. A solicitation is sent by the service provider and accepted by the third party service provider. After acceptance, status and/or location information from the third party service provider is redirected within a network management facility so that the information is sent to the service provider, rather than to an entity normally associated with the third party service provider. After services have been performed by the third party service provider, the third party service provider is generally free to accept service requests from other service providers, whereby messages transmitted by the third party service provider are routed to the new service provider.

Abstract: A hard disk drive having a disk fluttering reducing unit includes a lower air
damper forming member provided on an upper surface of the base plate to face a
bottom surface of an outer circumferential side of the disk, and an upper air damper
forming member provided on a bottom surface of the cover plate to face an upper

surface inclined in a circumferential direction of the disk so that a gap with the disk
decreases along a rotational direction of the disk is formed at each of the surfaces of
the air damper forming members facing the disk. The air compression surface can
be inclined in a radial direction of the disk so that a gap with the disk decreases from
an inner circumferential side to an outer circumferential side. When at least two
disks are provided, a middle air damper forming member can be interposed between
the two disks is provided. Thus, disk fluttering is reduced by an air damping
operation of the disk fluttering reducing unit so that reliability of data recording and

Abstract: A ceramic discharge lamp, and method of operating same,
is provided which contains a cavity between a clear sapphire
tube and a PCA cap. During lamp operation, the cavity holds
the molten salts to act as a constant temperature reservoir
of the molten salts. By manipulating the shape of the cap,
for example the curvature of the internal dome, or by
building in an offsetting lip, the volume of the cavity can
be controlled. By adjusting the thickness of the adjacent
cap walls, or by the addition of exterior heat sinking or
radiating features on the cap, the temperature of the salt
reservoir can be further controlled. The reservoir
facilitates providing materials for the plasma at a constant
pressure, but without letting the fill condensate flow over
and coat the light emitting portions of the clear sapphire
transmission cavity wall. As a result, the arc has more
stable performance, and the generated light escapes without
being interfered with by condensed salts, or fluid salts
moving on the light transmitting surfaces. In this way the
lamp can be overdosed with salts, while functionally
appearing to be minimally dosed.

Abstract: A decoder for iterative decoding of parallel concatenated Zigzag codes (PCZZ) includes circuitry for utilizing all extrinsic
information during iterative decoding by updating likelihood information for parity
bits  L Pi   ,  i =1,...,  M  during iterations. The extrinsic information for the parity bits is
included in iterations by re-calculating soft values for parity bits  L Pi   (k)    for each
iteration k. In one embodiment the parity bit soft values are re-calculated in a
plurality of circuit blocks following Max-Log-APP (MLA) decoder blocks, based on
soft values for data bits  L Di   (k)   . In another embodiment the parity bit soft values are
re-calculated recursively within the plurality of MLA decoders. The decoder
operates to control the convergence of the decoder by monitoring a soft value of
one parity check symbol, e.g.,  L (k-1)   [ p ( IM )], where  p(IM)  represents the last parity
check bit in an  I  X  M  parity check array. A decoder iteration stopping rule may be
implemented by testing a likelihood measure associated with a last parity check
symbol in a parity check column. In one case the likelihood measure may be given
by  L (k-1)   [ p ( IM )] > threshold, and in another case the likelihood measure may be
given by  L (k-1)   [ p ( I )] > threshold. The likelihood measure is given in general by:
 L (k-1)   [ p ( I )] > threshold,  L (k-1)   [ p (2 I )] > threshold,...,  L (k-1)   [ p ( IM )] > threshold, where
the value of the threshold is a function of data block size.
