Patent AU-754857-B2 (AU)
Title: Bone plate system
Inventor: WEAVER PAUL C
IPC: A61B17/80
Filed: 2000-09-06
Granted: 2002-11-28
Abstract: The present invention relates to a bone plating system and method for fracture fixation of bone. The bone plating system includes a bone plate, at least one locking screw, and at least one non-locking screw. The bone plate has locking holes with threads and non-locking holes. The locking screws have a shaft with a thread for engaging bone and a head with a thread configured and dimensioned to mate with the thread of the locking holes. The non-locking screws have a thread for engaging bone and a non-threaded head. Both the locking and non-locking screws remain seated in their respective holes for substantially as long as the bone plate is implanted. The non-locking screws compress the bone plate against the bone and hold fracture reduction while the locking screws are secured to the plate at a fixed angular relationship. The mixed fixation achieved by this bone plating system and method is particularly useful for treatment of per-articular fractures.

Title: Device for cleaning motor vehicle lamellar filters, in particular
Inventor: STUMPP THOMAS
IPC: B01D41/04
Filed: 1994-09-07
Granted: 1997-09-18
Abstract: In a device for cleaning filters (F) in a cab which can be sealed against dust, filters can be temporarily secured on holders in a rotation axis (a-a). At least one exit aperture connectable to a line (12) for a flowing medium and arranged transversely to the rotation axis diverts the flow (L) of the flowing medium to the surface of the filter. As the exit aperture is the opening (14a) of at least one nozzle. A drive device (13) moves the nozzle in relation to the filter and/or the filter in relation to the nozzle parallel to the rotation axis (a-a), and the flow of the flowing medium is pulsed from the exit aperture.

Patent AU-754787-B2 (AU)
Title: Bioresorbable compositions of carboxypolysaccharide polyether intermacromolecular complexes and methods for their use in reducing surgical adhesions
Inventor: SCHWARTZ HERBERT E
IPC: A61L31/04
Filed: 1998-05-28
Granted: 2002-11-28
Abstract: The present invention relates to improved methods for making and using bioadhesive, bioresorbable, anti-adhesion compositions made of intermacromolecular complexes of carboxyl-containing polysaccharides and polyethers, and to the resulting compositions. The polymers are associated with each other, and are then either dried or are used as fluids. Bioresorbable, bioadhesive, anti-adhesion compositions are useful in surgery to prevent the formation of post-surgical adhesions. The compositions are designed to breakdown in-vivo, and thus be removed from the body. Membranes are inserted during surgery either dry or optionally after conditioning in aqueous solutions. The anti-adhesion, bioadhesive, bioresorptive, antithrombogenic and physical properties of such membranes can be varied as needed by carefully adjusting the pH of the polymer casting solutions, polysaccharide composition, the polyether composition, or by conditioning the membranes prior to surgical use. Bi- or multi-layered membranes can be made and used to provide further control over the physical and biological properties of antiadhesion membranes. Antiadhesion compositions may also be used to deliver drugs to the surgical site and release them locally.

Title: Human receptor H4-1BB
Inventor: KWON BYOUNG S
IPC: G01N33/566
Filed: 1994-09-15
Granted: 1998-10-08
Abstract: The human receptor H4-1BB has been isolated, sequenced and disclosed herein. The cDNA of the human receptor H4-1BB is about 65% homologous to the mouse cDNA 4-1BB and was isolated by using probes derived from cDNA 4-1BB. A fusion protein for detecting cell membrane ligands to human receptor protein H4-1BB was developed. It comprises the extracellular portion of the receptor protein H4-1BB and a detection protein (alkaline phosphatase) bound to the portion of the receptor protein H4-1BB. B-cells that have expressed a ligand to receptor protein H4-1BB can be treated with cells that have expressed receptor protein H4-1BB and B-cell proliferation may be induced. The use of H4-1BB to block H4-1BB ligand binding has practical application in the suppression of the immune system during organ transplantation. A monoclonal antibody against H4-1BB can be used to enhance T-cell proliferation by treating T-cells that have expressed receptor protein H4-1BB with the anti H4-1BB monoclonal antibody. Tumors transfected with H4-1BBL may be capable of delivering antigen-specific signals as well as the co-stimulatory signals and can be killed by human cytotoxic T lymphocytes.
