Patent EP-0246754-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KELMAN CHARLES D
IPC: A61F2/16
Filed: 1987-04-21
Abstract: An intraocular lens having a lens body having a positioning opening (30) therein adapted to receive the working tip of a surgical instrument used to manipulate the lens for seating in the eye. The opening is in the form of a blind bore, the bottom wall surface of which is masked by being frosted or otherwise at least partially opaque (30b, 30b') to the passage of light therethrough to thereby substantially reduce the glare-effect otherwise perceived by the user. According to another embodiment, an intraocular lens has masked portions integral with its peripheral boundary (40, 50), in the path of light which passes through the pupil. The frosted or otherwise at least partly opaque masked region inhibits light rays striking the lens body in the vicinity of the peripheral edge thereof from passing therethrough undiffused so as to form a separation between rays passing through a pair of adjacent materials exhibiting different indices of refraction.

Title: Combinations of tumor necrosis factors and anti-inflammatory agents for treating malignant and non-malignant diseases.
Inventor: GOLDBERG ALFRED L
IPC: A61P35/00
Filed: 1987-10-14
Abstract: Combinations and methods for the treatment of malignant and non-malignant diseases. More particularly, this invention relates to combinations of natural or recombinant tumor necrosis factors (''TNF'') and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, such as indomethacin and ibuprofen, useful for the growth inhibition or killing of transformed cells. According to this invention, the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents are used to reduce or eliminate the toxic side effects of high doses of TNFs employed in the treatment of malignant and non-malignant neoplastic diseases. Advantageously, the combinations and methods of this invention allow the administration of higher doses of TNF than those tolerated in conventional treatment regimens based upon TNF alone.

Abstract: In certain subterranean heating pipe systems, which will be difficult of access for repairs, it is preferred to apply copper pipelines, which are more expensive than steel pipes but in turn are corrosion proof. By the mounting of so-called rigid systems, i.e. pipes having a rigid insulation foam filling out the space between the inner pipeline and an outer mantle pipe and securing these pipes mutually both radially and axially, it is customary either that possibili­ties are provided for axial movements of the pipes by mount­ing of axial compensators or the like, or that the pipes are laid in such prestretched or preheated condition that the pipes can be laid without axial movements occurring by variations in temperature as instead changes of the stress conditions inside the pipes will occur. By the invention copper pipes of annealed copper is used in a rigid system whereby it has proved possible to lay the pipes in a simpli­fied manner, viz. by cold laying without prestretching and without mounting in axial compensators or the like. High compressive stresses may then build up in the pipes when they are heated initially after the mounting, but that will be acceptable over a period of some months, and since the annealed copper has a relaxation capability the stress will relatively rapidly be reduced to an undercritical level.

Abstract: In a disk player, a tilt detection signal is generated corresponding to a tilt of a recording surface of a disk relative to a reference plane depending on a position of a pickup or a pickup radial position is generated. A reproduced video signal is passed through a noise reduction circuit having a transfer function which is changed in accordance with the tilt detection signal or the radial position signal so as to reduce a noise component. Accordingly, the influence of cross-talk on a picture caused by the tilt of the disk can be electrically reduced, and a complicated mechanism becomes unnecessary, so that it is possible to simplify the structure of the player. Moreover, it is not necessary to select a pickup in which the quantity of cross-talk is small against a tilt of a disk, so that it is possible to make the production cost low.
