Abstract: Contraception methods, systems and devices generally improve the ease, speed and reliability with which a contraceptive device (12) can be deployed transcervically into an ostium of a fallopian tube. The contraceptive device (12) may remain in a small profile configuration while a sheath (14) is withdrawn proximally, and is thereafter expanded to a large profile configuration engaging the surrounding tissues, by manipulating one or more actuators of a proximal handle (30) with a single hand. This leaves the other hand free to manipulate a hysteroscope, minimizing the number of health care professionals required to deploy the contraceptive device (12).

Abstract: An insertion portion 2 of an endoscope 1 is configured by sequentially connecting a distal end section 20, a bending section 30, and a flexible tube section 60. The distal end section 20 is composed of a main body 23 and a front end cover 24. Both end portions of bending rubber 31 covering a bending tube 40 constituting the bending section 30 are wrapped with threads 32 and 33, respectively. These threads 32 and 33 crush the bending rubber 31 radially inward. Consequently, the inner perimeter surface of the bending rubber 31 is brought into the state of being intimate contact with the outer surfaces of the distal end section 20, the bending tube 40, and a joint tube 52, so as to be fixed watertight. When these threads 32 and 33 are wound around the bending rubber 31, the winding is carried out with a predetermined amount of force in order that the thickness of the bending rubber 31 becomes within 40 percent to 95 percent of the thickness of the bending rubber in the natural state and, thereby, thread-wrapped portions 34 and 35 are formed.

Abstract: Atorvastatin calcium, the substance known by the chemical name (R-(R*,R*))-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-²,´-dihydroxy-5-(1-methylethyl)-3-phenyl-((phenylamino)carbonyl)-1H-pyrrole-1-heptanoic acid hemi calcium salt is known as HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor and is used as an antihypercholesterolemic agent. Atorvastatin in the pharmaceutical compositions available in the market, is usually prepared as its calcium salt since it enables atorvastatin to be conveniently formulated in the pharmaceutical formulations, for example, in tablets, capsules, powders and the like for oral administration. Atorvastatin calcium can exist in an amorphous form or in one of the at least four known crystalline forms (Form I, Form II, Form III and Form IV). Atorvastatin calcium is the substance which is sparingly soluble in water, with pKa 4,5, and it has been found that the crystalline forms are less soluble than the amorphous form, which may cause problems in bioavailability of atorvastatin in the body.  The present invention solves the problem of providing therapeutic equivalence of atorvastatin pharmaceutical formulation regardless the form (crystalline, amorphous, mixture of both) of atorvastatin calcium used for its preparation.

Abstract: A method of video data compression is provided which is comparatively efficient in compressing data, and at the same time enables transmission of compressed data with sufficient robustness to withstand losses in the transmission channel. A frame of data is divided into coded macroblocks and skipped macroblocks which are grouped into respective slices in a sequence of slices. Respective slices are allowed to contain arbitrary numbers of consecutive macroblocks, and can begin and end at arbitrary positions within the frame. A run-length codeword, comprising a small number of bits, is inserted at the end of a slice to indicate the total number of skipped macroblocks between the final coded macroblock and the end of the slice. To further enhance error resilience an additional codeword, which also indicates the total number of skipped macroblocks, may be inserted at the beginning of the next-following slice.

Abstract: Modified polyolefins are produced by reacting a functionalized polyolefin with one or more ethylenically unsaturated compounds having a functional group reactive with the functional group on the polyolefin. These modified polyolefins may then polymerize in the presence of a photoinitiator upon exposure to ultraviolet radiation and also have the capability of copolymerizing in the presence of a photoinitiator with other ethylenically unsaturated crosslinking agents upon exposure to ultraviolet radiation. These modified polyolefins may also contain pendant carboxyl groups, which have the propensity to form hydrophilic salts with amines, and therefore may be rendered water-dispersible. The modified polyolefins of the present invention significantly improve the adhesion of paints, inks, and adhesives to various plastic and metal substrates.

Abstract: The subject invention provides for an intelligent quarantining system and method that facilitates a more robust classification system in connection with spam prevention. The invention involves holding back some messages that appear to be questionable, suspicious, or untrustworthy from classification (as spam or good). In particular, the filter lacks information about these messages and thus classification is temporarily delayed. This provides more time for a filter update to arrive with a more accurate classification. The suspicious messages can be quarantined for a determined time period to allow more data to be collected regarding these messages. A number of factors can be employed to determine whether messages are more likely to be flagged for further analysis. User feedback by way of a feedback loop system can also be utilized to facilitate classification of the messages. After some time period, classification of the messages can be resumed. <IMAGE>
