Title: Side-chain crystallizable polymers for medical applications
Inventor: BRANDOM DONALD K
IPC: A61L31/12
Filed: 2005-07-07
Granted: 2010-06-29
Abstract: Inherently radiopaque side-chain crystallizable polymers (IRSCCP's) are useful in various medical applications. An example of a IRSCCP is a polymer that comprises a main chain, a plurality of crystallizable side chains, and a plurality of heavy atoms attached to the polymer, the heavy atoms being present in an amount that is effective to render the polymer radiopaque. A  polymeric material that includes a IRSCCP may be fabricated into a medical device useful for at least partially occluding a body cavity. For example, such a medical device may be an embolotherapy product.

Title: Individual codec pathway impairment indicator for use in a communication system
Inventor: HELLWIG KARL
IPC: H04W28/22
Filed: 2005-08-16
Granted: 2014-10-07
Abstract: A system and method are described for controlling the setup of a connection in a communication network that includes a set of nodes, such as Mobile Switching Centers (MSCs) and Media Gateways (MGWs). In one example, a speech connection is established between MGWs subject to the control of the MSCs, which can selectively activate or deactivate codecs along the connection. The codecs are selected from a list of supported codecs, each potentially affecting connection quality by differing amounts. A Total Accumulated Impairment (TAI) element is forwarded between the MSCs and step by step updated by these MSCs that includes individual partially accumulated impairment values corresponding to each of the supported codec candidates. Each individual indicator value provides information representative of the expected accumulated impairment along a candidate connection path leading up to, and including, the corresponding codec. By providing information pertaining to the expected accumulated impairment along each candidate connection path, the MSCs can determine an optimum sequence of codecs so as to minimize the overall connection impairment.

Abstract: This invention is directed to deimmunized antibodies that are useful as immunotherapeutic drugs against Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and CD4-mediated autoimmune disorders. More specifically, antibodies expressed by clones, Clone 7 containing the recombinant genes B4DIVHv1/VK1CHO#7, Clone 16 containing the recombinant genes B4DIVHv1/VK1#16, and clone 21 containing the recombinant genes B4DIVHv1/VK1#21, are derived from mouse monoclonal B4 antibody (mAb B4). The antibodies were produced by removing particular murine determinants recognized as foreign by the human immune system. These recombinant antibodies were generated by the chimerization and deimmunization of the Fv region of mouse monoclonal antibody (mAb) B4. For improved safety, the coding sequence may further be mutated to express an aglycosylated IgG1 antibody that is unable to bind complement. The deimmunized antibodies retain the specificity of the murine mAb B4 for a receptor complex involving CD4 on the surface of the host T cells, and retain the characteristic ability of mAb B4 to neutralize primary isolates of HIV.

Abstract: A temporary ground covering for displacement on sandy, muddy or boggy ground. The covering includes a woven structure formed of warp and weft. The weave is such that each warp thread interlaces with the weft thread, following approximately half the intersections of the rows and columns of the weave. The warp thread is left in the remaining intersections for each warp thread to obtain at least one simple tight weave area followed by an area of floats. The alternation of the different areas causes contractions of the weft thread creating a significant relief of the obtained fabric. The covering includes flat threads over at least one part of the width of the woven structure on at least one of the surfaces. Each thread is taken, steadily or not, by weft threads placed at the end of the projections of the woven surface structure.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device and a method for the regulated supply of incoming air into a permanently inert area (10) in which a pre-defined inerting level is adjusted or to be adjusted and maintained in a certain regulating range. The aim of the invention is to be able to maintain the prescribed air regeneration rate for the permanently inert area (10), and to permanently effectively eliminate the risk of fire in the area (10), in the most effective and economical way possible. To this end, a value is associated with the volume flow rate (VN2) at which an inert gas is supplied to the air atmosphere in the area, which is sufficient to maintain the prescribed inerting level in the air atmosphere of the space. Furthermore, only as much fresh air is supplied to the air atmosphere of the area as is directly required to remove the pollutant part from said air atmosphere, which has not already been eliminated by the supply of the inert gas via a corresponding outgoing air discharge system (4).
