Abstract: Verfahren zur Präsenzbestimmung einer Transpondereinheit in einem elektromagnetischen Feld einer Lese-/Schreibvorrichtung, wobei zunächst eine Kontrolleinheit aus einem Stand-by-Modus in einen Detektionsmodus verbracht wird, in welchem ein Detektionssignal ausgesandt wird. Zeitgleich und/oder anschließend wird ein Antennensignal abgegriffen, welches an eine Demodulationseinheit weitergeleitet wird, um in dieser, ausgehend von dem Antennensignal, ein Vergleichssignal zu ermitteln. Dieses Vergleichssignal wird an die Kontrolleinheit weitergeleitet und dort mit einem Referenzsignal verglichen. Weicht das Referenzsignal von dem Vergleichssignal um einen vorbestimmbaren Wert ab, so wird ein Kommunikationssignal ausgesandt. Andernfalls wird die Kontrolleinheit wieder in den Stand-by-Modus verbracht. Das Verfahren unterscheidet sich dadurch vom Stand der Technik, dass als Demodulationseinheit ein Hüllkurvendemodulator verwendet wird.

Abstract: Systems and methods for performing a red blood cell exchange procedure are disclosed. In one aspect, the flow rates of a replacement fluid (e.g., red blood cells from a healthy donor) and plasma being flowed to a blood source are calculated based on certain parameters of the procedure that are known, including the flow rate of blood being drawn from the source and the volume of replacement fluid to be used during the procedure. The replacement fluid flow rate and the plasma flow rate are calculated in a way that allows for simultaneous depletion of the supply of replacement fluid and achievement of another prescribed process parameter. The other prescribed process parameter depends on the nature of the procedure, namely whether the fluid volume and hematocrit of the source are to change by the end of the procedure or remain the same.

Abstract: Matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) play many important roles in normal and pathological remodeling processes including atherothrombotic disease, inflammation, angiogenesis and cancer. This invention relates to the activation of protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR-1) by endogenous platelet MMP-1 collagenase on the surface of platelets. Exposure of platelets to fibrillar collagen converts the surface-bound pro-MMP-1 zymogen to active MMP-1, which promotes aggregation through PAR-1, MMP-1 is shown to cleave the PAR-1 extracellular domain at a novel site, which then strongly activates Rho-GTP signaling pathways, cell shape change and motility, and MAPK signaling. Blockade of MMP-PAR 1 suppresses thrombogenesis under arterial flow conditions and inhibited thrombosis in animals. These studies provide a link between matrix-dependent activation of metalloproteases and platelet-G protein signaling and identify MMP- 1/PAR-1 as a new target for the treatment and prevention of arterial thrombosis and other thrombotic diseases.
