Abstract: To prevent piracy, audiovisual content is encrypted prior to transmission to consumers. A low-cost, high-security cryptographic rights module (such as a smartcard) enables devices such as players/displays to decode such content. Security-critical functions may be performed by the cryptographic module in a manner that allows security compromises to be addressed by upgrading or replacing cryptographic modules, thereby avoiding the need to replace or modify other (typically much higher-cost) components. The security module contains cryptographic keys, which it uses to process rights enablement messages (REMs) and key derivation messages (KDMs). From a REM and KDM, the security module derives key data corresponding to content, uses public key and/or symmetric cryptography to re-encrypt the derived key data for another device, and provides the re-encrypted key data to the decoding device. The decoding device then uses cryptographic values derived from the re-encrypted key data to decrypt the content.

Abstract: An implant having a coating comprising a polymer matrix is swollen in a pharmaceutical solution whereby pharmaceutically active compound is imbibed into the polymer matrix. When the product is implanted, release of the pharmaceutically active compound from the coating takes place. The polymer is preferably formed from ethylenically unsaturated monomers including a zwitterionic monomer, most preferably 2-methacryloyloxyethyl-2′-trimethylammoniumethyl-phosphate inner salt. The monomers from which the polymer is formed may further include surface binding monomers, such as hydrophobic group containing monomers, and crosslinkable monomers, the content of which may be used to control the swellability. Preferably the implant is a stent and the coating of polymer on the exterior wall surface is thicker than the coating of polymer on the interior surface. Release of the drug may be controlled by selection of comonomers. The implant is suitably a stent for use in the cardiovascular system.

Abstract: A method and system for use in treating a patient receiving an anticoagulant or a substance containing warfarin to optimize therapy and prevent an adverse drug response. This system employs surrogate markers or indicators including blood levels of the anticoagulant to determine the next required dose for a patient. Since the surrogate markers are employed as a percent change in status, virtually any indicator can be used. Surrogate markers could include any measure of the effectiveness of the anticoagulant's action. Given the effectiveness of the anticoagulant's action relative to the surrogate markers, a change in anticoagulant dose is calculated by the system. Conversely, by employing this system, one could determine the expected result of the anticoagulant dose change on the surrogate markers.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for identifying the weld seam of individual longitudinally seam-welded tubes made of a ferritic or austenitic material during which the individual tube (1) is placed in a direct current magnetic field and is rotated around the longitudinal axis thereof. The differences in structure and/or permeability resulting between the parent material and the seam weld are established as a differentiation criterion by a probe (8) placed in proximity to the tube. According to the invention, the probe (8) introduces eddy current of an appropriate frequency into the tube (1) and the received signal is converted into a display which produces either a low signal (parent material) or a high signal (weld seam). The invention also relates to a measuring device for identifying, according to said method, the weld seam of individual longitudinally seam-welded tubes (1) made of a ferritic or austenitic material. The measuring device comprises an eddy current unit (10) and a probe (8) connected thereto, and comprises a measuring circuit which is provided in the eddy current unit (10) and which is provided for evaluating eddy current signals in that a signal is produced which can be distinguished as having been emitted from the parent material or from the weld seam. The probe is dimensioned so that it can be placed on the smallest nominal dimension to be tested without affecting the measured result.

Abstract: Prior art painting devices are perceived as being disadvantageous in that a relatively large amount of paint is lost during cleaning carried out using a scraper, and by virtue of the fact that the color changing device can not be fully cleaned. In order to prevent this drawback, the invention provides that the scraping station (66) assigned to the color changing device (48) is arranged on the end of the color changing device (48) facing away from the connecting device (12). This enables the scraper, during a cleaning process, to also move through the color changing device (48) and to clean the same. In order to prevent a contamination of the paint supply device (60, 62, 64), a control element (18) closes a paint valve (54, 56, 58), which has just been opened, at the moment in which the scraper moves past the opening of the corresponding paint supply line (61, 63, 65). The position of the scraper is detected by a sensor (50) in the area of the color changing device (48). The residual paint present in the color changing device (48) between the opening of the corresponding paint supply line (61, 63, 65) and the scraping station (66) is carried away via a residual paint channel (72).

Abstract: A liquid embolic delivery system is provided for trapping an injected liquid embolic composition to prevent the liquid embolic from solidifying or otherwise passing outside of an embolization area. The delivery system includes a catheter for delivery of a liquid embolic composition and a containment member positioned at a distal end of the catheter which is shaped to trap the liquid embolic composition delivered through the lumen of the catheter. The containment member is formed as a brush, nest, sponge, swab, flexible sack, or other shape into and around which the liquid embolic composition is injected. The liquid embolic composition is trapped or meshes with the containment member during solidification containing the liquid embolic and preventing the embolic composition from passing into the blood stream.

Abstract: The invention relates to a honing tool as used in conventional mechanical engineering. The invention aims to produce a honing tool which guarantees a flush but detachable alignment of the tool body over its entire service life. The tool body can be detachably fixed by a force-fit to the shaft in flush alignment. To this end, a plug-in connection is configured between the shaft and the tool body, the contact surfaces of the shaft and the tool body having a different profile in the vicinity of the plug-in connection. This difference in profile can be neutralised by a force acting on one of the two parts, said part deforming elastically in such a way that the difference is compensated by a change to the profile.
