Abstract: The present invention is to provide a non-human animal model of systemic lupus erythematosus wherein generation of anti-double stranded DNA antibody and anti-single stranded antibody is induced, and that is made to spontaneously develop glomerulonephritis and arthritis, and a screening method for a therapeutic agent for systemic lupus erythematosus wherein the non-human animal model is used. Fc gamma RIIB deficient mouse that is not made to spontaneously develop autoimmune pathology although its autoantibody response is enhanced is backcrossed into C57BL/6J (B6) mouse for 12 generations to generate Fc gamma RIIB deficient B6 mouse, the Fc gamma RIIB deficient B6 male mouse is intercrossed with lpr/B6 female mouse, and thus obtained Fc gamma RIIB<+/->/lpr<+/-> mice were further crossed to generate a mouse model of systemic lupus erythematosus.

Abstract: A true cross-layer integration of functions is provided on several protocol layers within a network, thus providing a unified approach to Quality of Service (QoS) provisioning in a multihop network. In the unified approach, connections are preferably determined by integrated optimization of a given objective function with respect to connection parameters on at least three protocol layers within the network. Preferably, the optimization involves routing (path selection), channel access as well as adaptation of physical link parameters. By incorporating physical connection parameters together with properly designed constraints, the issue of interference can be carefully considered. It is thereby possible to determine connection parameters that ensure substantially non-interfering communication with respect to existing connections as well as the new connection.

Abstract: The details of an apparatus and method for handling cell update during reconfiguration in universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS) user equipment (UE) are disclosed herein. When the user equipment (UE) receives a Reconfiguration request from a UTRAN, it sets an activation time for execution of the reconfiguration. Where a cell update is required when the reconfiguration has not yet been applied, the user equipment (UE) delays the execution of the cell update procedure until after the reconfiguration has been applied. If the trigger which initiated the cell update procedure is no longer relevant, the cell update is unnecessary and may be cancelled. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An infrared discharge tube is disclosed, the tube having a body (1) formed from a material, typically sapphire, generally transparent to infrared radiation of between 4 µm and 5 µm, and electrodes (2, 3) formed from a non-reactive or catalytic metal, such as nickel, cupro-nickel or oxidised copper. The body (1) forms a gas tight enclosure, and is evacuated of air and refilled with a mixture of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and nitrogen gas. The proportions and pressures of gases in the body (1) are adjusted depending upon the intended use of the source, but are generally in the order of 100mBar for a low energy source capable of stimulating a detector (for example in the case of optical integrity testing), and may be several tens of Bar for a high energy source suitable for use over several tens of metres. The tube is then sealed, and when a high voltage is applied between electrodes (2, 3) an arc is generated across a spark gap (4) between electrodes (2, 3). The metal of the electrodes (2, 3) is chosen so as to resist changes in relative proportions of the constituent gases of the mixture of gases in the tube.
