Patent CA-2442041-C (CA)
Inventor: SCHOELLING HANS-WERNER
IPC: A61F13/00
Filed: 2002-03-22
Granted: 2011-10-04
Abstract: The present invention is related to a tampon for feminine hygiene, having an insertion end, a recovery end, a recovery tape and a longitudinal axis. The tampon is made of compressed fibrous material having an outer surface. The outer surface is at least partially provided with spirally shaped, pressed longitudinal grooves which define spirally shaped longitudinal ribs.  Furthermore, the invention is related to a method and operated for producing said tampon. A reduction of the risk of leakage is achieved by extending the time over which the tampon absorbs a body fluid, and by enlarging the surface of the tampon and increasing the fiber quantity available for immediate absorption of body fluid.

Title: Common control channel uplink power control for adaptive modulation and coding techniques
Inventor: TERRY STEPHEN E
IPC: H04J13/00
Filed: 2002-05-14
Granted: 2011-06-28
Abstract: Using wireless digital code-division multiple access (CDMA) technology, a method and system in which adaptive modulation and coding (AM & C) is utilized in order to achieve improved radio resource utilization and provide increased data rates for user services in which the base station (12) measures up link interference on all time slots received from user equipment UEs (30) and determines the need for uplink control channel. The base station transmits to the UE the allocation of specific uplink control channels indicating uplink interference in the time slot and potentially the quality margin. The UE (30) determines appropriate uplink power level based on a path loss determination (42) made by the UE, uplink interference and an optional quality margin. The UE (30) then initiates an uplink communication responsive to these determinations.

Title: Developmental animal model of temporal lobe epilepsy
Inventor: DOUCETTE TRACEY
IPC: A61K49/00
Filed: 2003-12-04
Granted: 2012-09-18
Abstract: Disclosed is a developmental animal model of temporal lobe epilepsy and other seizures-related disorders. In particular, the invention provides a method of inducing a permanent change in the neurological development of a rodent, such as a rat, comprising daily administration of low doses of a kainate receptor agonist to the animal in the second postnatal week, wherein after treatment with the kainate receptor agonist the animal exhibits reproducible seizure-like symptoms when exposed to mild to moderate stressors. Rats treated using the above method are particularly useful as a non-human system for studying temporal lobe epilepsy, as well as for studying the efficacy of potential anti- epileptic compounds and pharmaceutical preparations.
