Abstract: A medication injector apparatus such as an injection pen. The injection pen includes a resettable, cartridge plunger drive assembly including an axially floating nut, a cartridge plunger engaging screw, and a drive clutch movable with the nut and which when rotated causes the screw to screw through the nut. When a cartridge assembly is mounted to the pen base, the floating nut and drive clutch are shifted proximally such that the drive clutch is in torque transmitting engagement with a rotatable drive member of the pen, such that rotation of that drive member results in drive screw advancement through the nut in the distal direction. When the cartridge assembly is not mounted to the pen base, the floating nut and drive clutch are biased distally to disengage the drive clutch from torque transmitting engagement with the rotatable drive member and to thereby allow the drive screw to be reset proximally through the nut to a position more retracted within the pen base. The injection pen includes a doseable quantity identifier that uses a rotational matrix (500) and a sensor (502) for electrically sensing the arrangement of the dose setting mechanism of the pen, which identifier may be part of a therapeutic dose indicating system that utilizes a cartridge recognizer to recognize a concentration of medication so as to allow an automatic determination of a therapeutic dose. The injection pen further may include an assembly for selectively rotating a drive sleeve of the pen, which assembly has a dial that rotates out during dose setting and which translates in without rotation during dose injecting.

Abstract: An open-ended mold for casting metal strands with a thin slab cross section, the mold having broad-side walls which form a central widening region which extends from the mold inlet edge to the mold outlet edge and at the outlet edge opens out in a rectangular outlet cross section. To prevent to a great extent the strand from coming away from the broad-side walls, the contour of the mold cavity in the widening region is formed, as seen in sectional planes taken at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the mold, by curves which at least in partial regions form clothoids or clothoidal curves, within which sudden changes in curvature (Deltak) are minimized or reduced to zero. The curvature reduces to flat at the mold outlet edge. Other cavity surface features are disclosed.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for diagnosing Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, using genetic markers that are implicated in severe, early-onset Crohn's Disease (CD). The invention also provides coding sequence mutations in the OCTN1 gene that significantly reduces its ability to transport the organic cation carnitine. The invention further provides mutations in the promoter region of OCTN2 (that downregulates both basal transcription and transcription induced either by heat shock or arachidonic acid. This transcription difference is apparently due to the disruption of a binding site for heat shock transcription factor 1 (HSF 1). A haplotype of two mutations is found in Crohn's Disease (CD) patients. Together, these mutations reduce cellular ability to respond to metabolic stress in inflamed tissue and may further be involved in the clearance of toxic substances from cells. The invention provides for the identification and use of these polynucleotides and encoded polypeptide sequences as targets for the development of therapeutic compounds intended to be useful in the treatment of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases and inflammation generally.

Abstract: The semiconductor memory device comprises a transistor with floating gate (FG) and a control gate, where the regions of source (S), drain (D) and channel of the floating-gate transistor form the control gate, and the memory cell comprises a dielectric zone (ZTN) laid out between a part (P1) of the layer of gate material and an active semiconductor zone (RG1) electrically insulated from another active zone (RG2) incorporating the control gate. The dielectric zone forms a tunnel zone (ZTN) for transferring the charges stored in the floating gate at the time of erasing the memory cell. The capacitive value of tunnel zone (ZTN) is below or equal to 30% of the total capacitive value between the layer of gate material and the set of active zones of the memory cell. The transistor has a ring gate (FG), and the gate material comprises a linking part (PL) connecting the first part (P1) and the ring gate. The active zones (RG1,RG2) are electrically insulated by the p-n junctions polarized in reverse, and the two zones are electrically insulated on the surface by a region of shallow trench isolation (STI).  A memory array comprises several memory cells, each memory cell is associated with an access transistor, and the access transistor partly surrounds the floating-gate transistor of the memory cell resulting in a memory array of reduced size and lower programming currents. The device comprises the polarization means possessing the states of programming, reading and erasing the memory cell, where the erasing is of type Fowler-Nordheim and applies a voltage on the first active zone which is much higher than that applied in the regions of source, drain and substrate of the transistor. The programming of type Fowler-Nordheim applies to the regions of source, drain and substrate of the transistor voltages which are much higher than those applied to the first active zone. In the reading state the difference between the drain/source voltages is limited to 1 V in absolute value. An integrated circuit comprises the device as claimed.
