Abstract: A novel method to noninvasively measure intracranial pressure (ICP) and more generally brain elasticity is disclosed. ICP is determined using an algorithm coupled on a simulated artificial neural network (SANN) that calculates ICP based on a determination of a set of interacted ultrasound signals (IUSs) generated from multiple ultrasound pulses. The methods and systems of the present invention are capable of rapidly determining ICP without manual review of EPG  waves by a technician.

Abstract: Disclosed are amorphous polyesters that contain only renewable resources designed for emulsion aggregation toner fabrication. The amorphous polyesters may be obtained from the mixture of three different monomers: 1,4:3,6-dianhydro-D-sorbitol (isosorbide), nonanedioic acid (azelaic acid), and butanedioic acid (succinic acid). Different polymer properties may be achieved depending on the ratio of these three monomers. By altering the ratio, polymers of high to low acid value can be obtained, as well as different ranges of glass transition temperatures.

Patent CA-2741576-A1 (CA)
Inventor: YEUNG JEFFREY E
IPC: A61B17/34
Filed: 2011-01-03
Abstract: The intervertebral disc is avascular. Nutrients and waste are diffused through adjacent vertebral bodies into the disc. As we age, calcified layers form between the disc and vertebral bodies, blocking diffusion of nutrients, oxygen and pH buffer in blood. Under anaerobic conditions, lactic acid is produced, irritating nerve endings and causing nonspecific pain. In addition, the disc begins to starve and flatten. The weight shifts abnormally from disc to the facet joints causing strain and back pain. Shunt coils are formed and spiraled over the distal shaft of a twistable needle, then deployed into the nucleus of a degenerated disc by a sliding sleeve. The coils serve as an internal shunt, drawing nutrients, oxygen and buffering solute from the superior and inferior diffusion zones to neutralize lactic acid in the mid layer of the degenerated disc. The coils also serve as a bulking agent within the repaired disc to sustain compression and reduce facet loading and segmental instability. The end strands of the shunt coils can also extend from the disc to draw blood plasma from muscle or bodily circulation to expedite neutralization of lactic acid and rebuild disc matrix for pain relief and disc regeneration.

Abstract: A method and system provide a user device with secure access to an enterprise application in an enterprise network through VPN. The enterprise application is accessed from a user device such that it sends and receives data packets through the VPN  client. For this, a request to send packets, originating from the user application, is intercepted by a VPN  agent associated with the user application. In turn, the VPN agent associates an address of a loop-back interface with the user application. Thereafter, packets sent by the user application, are re-directed to the VPN client through the loop-back interface. Similarly, packets received by the VPN client from the enterprise network are routed through the loop-back interface to the user application.

Title: Intraocular lens
Inventor: PURCHASE DANIEL
IPC: A61F2/16
Filed: 2010-11-23
Abstract: An intraocular lens is described which comprises, as one face (21, 145) thereof, a linear Fresnel prism array with facets angled relative to the optical axis of the lens so as to deviate light incident thereon to an off-axis position. The facets are modified so as to reduce at least one of diffraction effects and astigmatism associated with the Fresnel prism. In particular, by varying the pitch (xl,..., xn) of the prism elements across the array, which may comprise varying their size, a diffraction grating effect can be reduced or negated, such that light is not diffracted into undesirable orders and multiple images can be avoided. Furthermore, chromatic angular dispersion associated with the diffraction grating effect may be reduced. The pitch variation can be random. By varying the angle of the facets across the array, astigmatism that would otherwise result from the presence of the Fresnel prism can also be compensated.
