Abstract: The invention provides a method of diagnosing or predicting susceptibility to a clinical subtype of Crohn's disease in a subject having Crohn's disease by determining the presence or absence of IgA anti-I2 antibodies in the subject, where the presence of the IgA anti-I2 antibodies indicates that the subject has a clinical subtype of Crohn's disease. In one embodiment, a method of the invention is practiced by further determining the presence or absence in the subject of a NOD2 variant, anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae antibodies (ASCA), IgA anti-OmpC antibodies, or perinuclear anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (pANCA). The methods of the invention can be used to diagnose or predict susceptibility to a clinical subtype of Crohn's disease, for example, a fibrostenotic subtype, a subtype characterized by the need for small bowel surgery, or a subtype characterized by the absence of features of ulcerative colitis.

Abstract: In a computer modeling method for the core of a nuclear reactor the core is divided into a plurality of primary grids in the form of coarse mesh cells. A sub-section of the core relating to at least one grid is assigned to that grid. The sub-section includes that grid and a buffer zone that surrounds the grid horizontally and contains at least the grid that lies immediately adjacent to the first grid. The sub-section is sub-divided into a plurality of secondary grids-fine mesh cells-that are smaller than the primary grids. In a first computing step, a model of the core is calculated using a nodal calculation method, based on a respective dataset that is assigned to each primary grid. In a second computing step, a respective second dataset is assigned to each secondary grid of a sub-section and a model is then calculated for the sub-section, based on the dataset and the flows on the border of the sub-section that have been calculated in the first computing step.

Abstract: Compensation of the effects of uncontrolled light in an imaging system using a controlled light source. Light from the controlled light source reflected by an object and uncontrolled light are detected in a plurality of frequency ranges. Intensity of the uncontrolled light is determined based on the varying sensitivity of an image sensor to light in the different frequency ranges and known emission characteristics of the controlled light source in the frequency ranges. Once the intensity of the uncontrolled light is determined, the total light detected at each point is adjusted to reduce the effects of the uncontrolled light in the resulting imaging data produced by the imaging system.

Abstract: When a mobile terminal (10), having a basic identity module (12) operative according to a first security standard, initiates a service access, the home network (30) determines whether the mobile terminal has an executable program (14) configured to interact with the basic identity module for emulating an identity module according to the second security standard. If it is concluded that the mobile terminal has such an executable program, a security algorithm is executed at the home network (30) to provide security data according to the second security standard. At least part of these security data are then transferred, transparently to a visited network (20), to the mobile terminal (10). On the mobile terminal side, the executable program (14) is executed for emulating an identity module according to the second security standard using at least part of the transferred security data as input. Preferably, the first security standard corresponds to a 2G standard, basically the GSM standard and the second security standard at least in part corresponds to a 3G standard such as the UMTS standard, and/or the IP Multimedia Sub-system (IMS) standard.
