Patent CA-2792110-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LEE CHAE-BUNG
IPC: A61C13/097
Filed: 2010-04-16
Abstract: The present invention relates to an articulator for the purpose of checking the alignment of dentures, by coupling together models of the upper and a lower jaws, in order to provide a simple movement of the upper and lower jaws, minimize occlusal errors, and accurately mount the upper and lower jaws onto the occlusion surface. Conventional articulators imitate the form of upper and lower jaw movements, wherein a reference axis is established and folded in accordance with a condyle, however, the process completely eliminates muscle movement, and inevitably leads to occlusal errors during upper and lower jaw movement. Consequently, the problem with conventional articulators is the need for post-processing, regardless of the extent of reduction of the occlusal errors through the use of diverse assisting means. In addition, while accurate occlusion cannot be achieved, conventional articulators have a structure that is too complicated and difficult to operate. Therefore, in the present invention, a reference axis is formed on a line extending from the central plane of an upper jaw mounting plate and a lower jaw mounting plate, so that the tangent of rotation creates a vertical motion on the occlusion surface, which allows upward and downward movements that are closer to physiological movements than conventional assisting means, which require making fine adjustments to occlusion, minimizes the margin of error of the articulator, and provides a simple operating structure for the upper and the lower jaw mounting plates and an easier usage thereof.

Abstract: Provided are methods of detecting the presence or amount of NPY 1-36 or NPY 3- 36 in a sample using mass spectrometry. Importantly, by methods of the invention, both NPY 1-36 and NPY 3-36 can be quantified simultaneously, separately, and independently in a sample that contains both peptides. The methods provide enhanced specificity, and excellent sensitivity with limits of quantitation (LOQ) of about 0.1 ng/mL, and are accomplished in less time and with less sample preparation than required in other assays for NPY. In certain embodiments, because the methods of the invention are specific for both NPY 1-36 and NPY 3-36, the methods provide a major advantage over existing immunoassays. Therefore, the methods may be used to obtain reliable concentration data in several important patient populations, such as patients with hypertension, heart disease, or cancer.
