Abstract: L'invention porte sur des techniques d'inhibition de l'hyperplasie de l'intima dans le système vasculaire de mammifères, les primates y compris. Ces techniques consistent en une administration coordonnée d'un antagoniste du facteur de croissance d'origine plaquettaire (PDGF) et d'héparine au mammifère. L'antagoniste peut être un antagoniste non peptidique ou un anticorps récepteur de l'anti-PDGF, à l'instar d'un anticorps récepteur de l'anti-PDGF alpha ou bien d'un anticorps récepteur de l'anti-PDGF bêta. Ces techniques se sont avérées efficaces s'agissant de modérer une hyperplasie de l'intima, due, par exemple, à des lésions vasculaires provoquées par une angioplastie, une endartériectomie, une athérectomie réductionnelle ou une anastomose d'une greffe vasculaire.

Abstract: An image reading apparatus compensates inter-deviations of and a change in a color temperature of a light source while compensating a difference in the sensitivities between linear image sensors and a change in the sensitivity difference. Three linear image sensors for R, G and B of a multi-line linear image sensor read white reference image data, and a line memory stores the image data. A CPU controls an output state of each second timing signal within a timing generator line by line and independently of a first timing signal, in such a manner that peak values of the white reference image data for three lines stored in the line memory each belong to a predetermined appropriate range. This optimizes a charge accumulating time within each linear image sensor, whereby an RGB balance becomes even at an output side of each linear image sensor.

Abstract: In an optical current transformer, an optical sensor is made up of two optical sensor units which are independent of each other. Incident light beams are applied to the optical sensor units, and the emergent light beams from the latter are subjected to addition, to obtain a measurement signal which is proportional to a current under test which flows in a conductor. The optical sensor units are substantially U-shaped bars, which are Faraday effect glass bars which are rectangular in cross section and have 45° reflecting surfaces at the corners.

Abstract: A fabric for use as a base fabric in an air bag comprises a fibrous substrate having adhered to it a covering layer made of a thermoplastic synthetic resin and of 10 µm or less in average thickness. The adhesion between the fibrous substrate and covering layer is effected by causing the thermoplastic synthetic resin material of the covering layer to fill intersteces between the fibers of the fibrous substrate. This may be achieved by applying to the fibrous substrate a solution or dispersion of the thermoplastic synthetic resin. An air bag may be constructed entirely from the fabric such that when it comprises sheet material additional to the base fabric, these may also be provided by the same fabric as that used for the base fabric.

Abstract: A field effect transistor with a reduced delay variation is provided in a compound semiconductor layer 1 with a channel 3, a source 5, and a drain 6 region of a first (n) conductivity type. A gate electrode 9, a source electrode 7, and a drain electrode 8 are formed respectively on the regions mentioned above. The gate electrode 9 formed on the channel 3 and extending between the source and drain regions 5, 6 is provided with a projecting part 9a protruding beyond the channel region 3. In the compound semiconductor layer 1, a well region 2 of the second (p) conduction type is formed so as to enclose the channel region 3, the source region 5, the drain region 6, and the projecting part 9a of the gate electrode 9. The delay variation is markedly reduced by the fact that the gate electrode 9 including the projecting part 9a is fully enclosed by the p-type well region 2. Alternatively the entire semiconductor layer or substrate can be made p-type.
