Abstract: La présente invention concerne un pronostic mathématique dans lequel des changements au niveau d'un certain nombre de facteurs physiologiquement significatifs sont mesurés et interpolés pour déterminer une  </=  fonction de dommage  >/=  incidente sur une infection bactérienne ou sur une autre inflammation grave. Par mesure d'un grand nombre de facteurs physiologiquement significatifs tels que, entre autres, l'interleukine 6 (IL6), l'interleukine 10 (IL10), l'oxyde nitrique (NO), et autres, on peut prédire la vie contre la mort au moyen de la fonction de dommage, dD/dt, qui mesure et interpole des données de différence pour une pluralité de facteurs. Chez les mammifères, un rapport IL6/NO inférieur à 8 à 12 heures après infection permet de prédire efficacement (60%) la mortalité; également chez les mammifères, un rapport IL6/NO inférieur à 4 à 24 heures après infection permet de prédire efficacement (52%) la mortalité; et un rapport IL6/IL10 chez les mammifères inférieur à 7,5 à 24 heures après infection permet de prédire efficacement (68%) la mortalité.

Abstract: A physically intermixed catalyst system comprising two distinctly different catalytic particles, the first of which is a hydrodenitrification and/or hydrodesulfurization catalyst and the second of which is a relatively active hydrocracking catalyst wherein the catalyst particles of both catalytic components are substantially the same size, that is the effective diameter of each catalyst component is substantially the same. The catalyst system of the present invention can be layered with unmixed catalysts. The novel systems of the present invention have been found to provide surprisingly good selectivity for liquid products and stability against catalyst fouling when used in combined hydrotreating and hydrocracking applications, and can therefore be used to provide a stable catalyst system which offers even heat distribution and reactor control in such applications.

Abstract: The invention concerns a control for a hydrostatic power train (1) comprising a hydraulic pump (2) which is connected, via a first main pipe and a second main pipe (7, 8), to a first hydromotor unit (5, 5') driving a front axle and to a second hydromotor unit (6, 6') driving a rear axle. The first and second hydromotor units (5, 5', 6, 6') can be adjusted in terms of their displacement via a first and a second variation device (30, 31, 30', 31') respectively. A  direction of travel is defined as forward movement (F) or reverse movement (R) by a position of an operating lever (37). The first and the second variation devices (30, 31, 30', 31') are controlled by a control valve (32, 32') which takes up a first control position upon a forward movement (F) determined by the position of the operating lever (37) and which takes up a second control position upon reverse movement (R) determined by the operating lever (37). In the first control position, the first variation device (30, 30') is controlled such that the first motor unit (5, 5') is adjusted for a smaller displacement and, in the second control position, the second variation device (31, 31') is controlled such that the second motor unit (6, 6) is adjusted for a smaller displacement.
