Abstract: Compression pad for use with a brassiere (1) made of elastic material. The compression pad (8) may be composed of a thin strip of resilient material, such as foam rubber, and may have chamfered edges. The strip can be covered with thin seam-free material, or is accommodated in lining pockets of thin seam-free material, and has, for example, a thickness of at least 1cm. The strip has a smooth surface, at least on a pressure side, which surface can be provided with small grooves. The compression pad (8) is made of a resilient material in order to increase tissue pressure and to promote lymphatic drainage. The cup assembly of the brassiere (1) is constructed, around the two cups, at least with shoulder straps (3) and side panels (2) which merge into a back panel. The shoulder straps (3) and/or the side panels are of broadened design. The brassiere (1) is provided, on the side next to the body, with a complete lining accessible for the compression pads (8), or is provided, on the side next to the body, with lining pockets in selected positions, in which compression pads of resilient material can be removably accommodated. At least one lining pocket for accommodating a compression pad (8) can also be provided in the cups of the cup assembly and/or in the back panel. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A nursery gate is provided with a pivoted latch. When the gate is swung to a closed position where it is co-planar with the keeper and hinge axis, the latch draw engages the keeper. At that time, a detent provided by the nose and the recess engages due to a spring movement of one of the part in the direction of the hinge axis. The gate is released for opening by a movement in the opposite direction against the spring so as to separate the nose and recess and allow the latch to pivot.

Abstract: A recording apparatus including a magnetic write head and a write amplifier with capacitive current compensation. The write amplifier is made up of four current mirrors which are turned on two at a time by two switchable floating current sources connected between the input terminals of the current mirrors in order to produce a write current of alternating polarity through the write head. The parasitic capacitances across the write head and/or the parasitic capacitances of the write amplifier at the write terminals are neutralized by means of neutralizing capacitors. The high impedance at the terminals of the write head enables the common-mode voltage across the write head to be fixed at any desired voltage value by means of a common-mode circuit.

Abstract: A bioartificial extracellular matrix for use in tissue regeneration or replacement is provided by derivatizing a three-dimensional hydrogel matrix with a cell adhesive extracellular matrix protein or cell adhesive peptide fragment of the protein. Preferably, derivatizing is by covalent immobilization of a cell adhesive peptide fragment having the amino acid sequence, ArgGlyAsp, TyrIleGlySerArg or IleLysValAlaVal. Cartilage or tendon can be regenerated by implanting a matrix containing an adhesive peptide fragment that favors chondrocyte invasion. The matrix can be pre-seeded with cells, and tissue can be reconstituted in vitro and then implanted. A cell-seeded matrix can be encapsulated in a semi-permeable membrane to form a bioartificial organ. An agarose hydrogel matrix having an agarose concentration of 0.5-1.25% (w/v) and an average pore radius between 120 nm and 290 nm is preferred. A nerve guidance channel for use in regenerating severed nerve is prepared containing a tubular semi-permeable membrane having openings adapted to receive ends of a severed nerve, and an inner lumen containing the hydrogel matrix having a bound cell adhesive peptide fragment through which the nerve can regenerate.

Abstract: A fanless snow gun for producing man-made snow comprises one or more water nozzles for projecting a substantially conical spray of water particles into the air, and a plurality of nucleating nozzles arranged rearwardly of and at spaced locations surrounding the water nozzles for injecting ice nuclei into the water spray to effect conversion of the water particles to snow prior to descending to the ground. To compensate for the absence of an independent source of air (e.g. a motorized fan) for cooling the water particles provided by the water nozzles, the snow gun is adapted to be supported at least 20 feet above ground level to increase the particle flight time and, hence cooling time, the water particle size is limited to about 300 microns or smaller to facilitate particle cooling and conversion to ice crystals, and the ratio of ice nuclei-to-water particles in the spray is increased by at least a factor of at least two compared to the same ratio in conventional fan guns.

Abstract: Access to a CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection) network is provided via a telephone line by providing a master modem at the head end and a slave modem at the subscriber end of the line. The master modem provides a CSMA/CD interface to the network and controls half duplex communications with the slave modem via the line to avoid collisions of information packets on the line. The information packets are enveloped in frames on the line with error checking information; control information between the modems is contained in the same and/or in separate frames. The modulation method and signal bandwidth can be varied depending on errors to provide optimum communications capacity via any particular line, and a ratio of upstream to downstream information packets can be varied depending on buffer fills at the modems. The master modem can be multiplexed for multiple lines. The modulated signal frequencies are above telephone signal frequencies so that each line can be frequency diplexed for simultaneous telephone communications.

Abstract: The present invention relates to glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), a potent neurotrophin that exhibits a broad spectrum of biological activities on a variety of cell types from both the central and peripheral nervous systems. The present invention involves the cloning and characterization of a high affinity receptor for GDNF. This molecule has been named GDNF receptor (GDNFR) since it is the first known component of a receptor system. Nucleic acid and amino acid sequences are described for GDNFR protein products. A hydrophobic domain with the features of a signal peptide is found at the amino terminus, while a second hydrophobic domain at the carboxy terminus is involved in the linkage of the receptor to the cell membrane. The lack of a transmembrane domain and cytoplasmic region indicates that GDNFR requires one or more accessory molecules in order to mediate transmembrane signaling. GDNFR mRNA is widely distributed in both nervous system and non-neural tissues, consistent with the similar distribution found for GDNF.
