Abstract: Skin irritation, such as diaper rash, appearing when the skin is allowed to remain in contact with proteolytic enzymes found in feces is prevented by inactivating the fecal proteolytic enzymes by contact with organophilic clays. The organophilic clays are applied to the skin in areas likely to come into contact with feces or to garments such as diapers. A composition suitable for practicing the method of the invention comprises an amount of an organophilic clay effective to inactivate irritating fecal proteolytic enzymes dispersed in a pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic dermatological vehicle. A fabric incorporating organophilic clay, preferably dispersed in a matrix of a superabsorbent polymer is useful for preparing diapers for infants that can help to prevent skin irritation by fecal enzymes.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un type de dispositif visant au placement endovasculaire, simplifié par rapport aux techniques existantes, d'un dispositif de rétention (stent)- greffe dans l'aorte abdominale pour traiter des anévrismes situés jusqu'au point de bifurcation (26) de l'aorte. Le dispositif est constitué d'un système de trois cylindres: un cylindre 'principal' (1) placé de façon centrale, et deux 'branches' (4, 5) placées de façon périphérique. Chacun de ces cylindres présente un orifice central (14, 9, 8) et un orifice périphérique (12, 10, 11). Les cylindres sont constitués d'un squelette cylindrique en métal auto-expansif (2, 7), et sont fabriqués en acier ou en nitinol inoxydable recouvert à l'extérieur d'un cylindre (3, 8) constitué d'une couche mince de PTFE, de Dacron ou d'un autre matériau biocompatible élastique, repliée (18) autour de l'orifice périphérique (12) du squelette du cylindre principal. Ces cylindres peuvent être comprimés pour former des tubules (23, 27, 38) de diamètre inférieur pouvant être introduits dans la lumière vasculaire. Après leur insertion dans la position voulue, il se dilatent, retrouvant leur diamètre initial. Le cylindre principal (1) est placé à l'intérieur de l'aorte, et devient plus circulaire au contact de la partie saine de l'aorte (13) située au centre de l'anévrisme, au centre de l'orifice (14). L'orifice périphérique du cylindre principal se situe sur la bifurcation (26) aortique dilatée. Les deux branches présentent un orifice central (8, 9) dont le diamètre est égal au diamètre de l'orifice périphérique (12) du cylindre principal ou approximativement inférieur à celui-ci d'environ 2 mm. L'embranchement du cylindre principal est réalisé par introduction des extrémités principales des deux branches à l'intérieur de l'extrémité périphérique du cylindre principal. Les deux branches présentent la même hauteur, de sorte qu'elles se compriment mutuellement au centre du cylindre. Chaque branche exerce une pression égale, cette pression égale s'exerçant également sur la surface intérieure du cylindre principal à partir de leur surface extérieure (fig. 5), et les deux branches occupent à la hauteur de leurs orifices le périmètre entier du cylindre principal (43). Dans un autre mode de réalisation, on peut utiliser comme branches (cylindres périphériques) des tubes de diamètres et de types de squelettes différents (28, 27).
