Abstract: The present invention relates to devices and methods for improving the function of a defective heart valve, and particularly for reducing regurgitation through an atrioventricular heart valve - i.e., the mitral valve and the tricuspid valve. For a tricuspid repair, the device includes an anchor deployed in the tissue of the right ventricle, in an orifice opening to the right atrium, or anchored to the tricuspid valve. A flexible anchor rail connects to the anchor and a coaptation element on a catheter rides over the anchor rail. The catheter attaches to the proximal end of the coaptation element, and a locking mechanism fixes the position of the coaptation element relative to the anchor rail. Finally, there is a proximal anchoring feature to fix the proximal end of the coaptation catheter subcutaneously adjacent the subclavian vein. The coaptation element includes an inert covering and helps reduce regurgitation through contact with the valve leaflets.

Filed: 2014-11-26
Abstract: Controlling an exhaust hood system having multiple hood sections each with an exhaust output having an associated damper, each exhaust output feeding to a common downstream fan, where damper position and fan speed control an exhaust flow rate through each hood section, involves monitoring at least one condition of each hood section and, based upon the monitoring, establishing a target flow rate for each hood section; based upon a sum of the target flow rates, establishing a fan speed; and monitoring an actual flow rate through each hood section and responsively controlling damper position to achieve the target flow rate for the hood section. Adjusting fan speed and damper position until damper position for at least one hood section achieves a predetermined open position, while at the same time each hood section satisfies its associated target flow rate, can reduce energy costs associated with system operation.

Title: Real-time determination of formation fluid properties using density analysis
Inventor: CHOK HAMED
IPC: E21B49/08
Filed: 2014-03-11
Abstract: Analysis evaluates formation fluid with a downhole tool disposed in a borehole. A plurality of possible constituents is defined for the formation fluid, and constraints are defined for the possible constituents. The constraints can include boundary constraints and constraints on the system's dynamics. The formation fluid is obtained from the borehole with the downhole tool over a plurality of time intervals, and density of the obtained formation fluid is obtained at the time intervals. To evaluate the fluid composition, a state probability distribution of the possible constituents of the obtained formation fluid at the current time interval is computed recursively from that at the previous time interval and by assimilation the current measured density of the obtained formation fluid in addition to the defined boundary/dynamic constraints. The probabilistic characterization of the state of the possible constituents allows, in turn, the probabilistic inference of formation properties such as contamination level and GOR.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of one or more biomarkers to evaluate the likelihood that a rapamycin analog would produce an anti-cancer effect in a subject. It is based, at least in part, on the results of experiments employing an integrated next-generation sequencing approach to interrogate spatially separated tumor specimens from the same individuals to decipher intra-tumor and intertumor heterogeneity and determine the oncogenomic basis of exceptional therapeutic benefit to rapalogs in kidney cancer patients. These experiments implicated loss of function mutations in TSC1 and/or TSC2 and/or gain-of- function of mTOR in therapeutic responsiveness to rapamycin analogs. Accordingly, in non-limiting embodiments, the present invention provides for assay methods and kits for determining the presence of loss of function mutations in TSC1 and/or TSC2 and/or gain-of- function of mTOR, and methods of using such determinations in selecting a therapeutic regimen for a cancer patient and in methods of treating cancer patients. In particular non-limiting embodiments, a plurality of tumor sites are evaluated and the composite effect of the genetic background on mTOR function is assessed.
