Abstract: PCT No. PCT/FI95/00417 Sec. 371 Date Apr. 1, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Apr. 1, 1997 PCT Filed Aug. 7, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/05703 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 22, 1996A method for transfer of files produced by a communication device from a mass storage of the communication device to a memory of a post-processing system for the files maintains the control file of the communication device by marking it with the information on the state of the files in each mass storage of the communication device, and a time stamp of the latest writing operation into it. This is followed by reading of the control file into a post-processing system, and comparing the file to another control file which is in the memory of the post-processing system and which is updated in each transfer. Reading into the post-processing system of such files of the communication device that have been modified on the basis of the comparison of control files since the latest updating of the control files of the post-processing system. The final step comprises updating of the control file of the post-processing system by marking it with the information as to the files that have been transferred, and copying the information to the communication device for indicating the capacity made available in the mass storage of the communication device.

Title: Manipulating nucleic acid sequences
Inventor: MINTER STEPHEN
IPC: C07H21/00
Filed: 1992-12-23
Granted: 1997-07-17
Abstract: A method of effecting a manipulation of a nucleic acid sequence comprises (a) providing a solid support system having bonded thereto a single stranded oligonucleotide complementary to a specific sequence on a target nucleic acid longer than said oligonucleotide, (b) adding a source of single stranded target nucleic acid to the solid support system, (c) hybridising the target nucleic acid to the oligonucleotide, and (d) effecting the manipulation on the hybridised target nucleic acid. The manipulation may for example be a copying or amplification of the target nucleic acid sequence. In a preferred embodiment, the support is provided in a flow-through vessel which facilitates washing of the support to remove impurities and leave a "clean" sample of target nucleic acid on which the manipulation may be carried out. The support preferably has a siloxane matrix to which the oligonucleotide is bound. This provides a stable linkage between the oligonucleotide and the support. The method is particularly useful for analysis of medical samples.

Title: Speed control system for implanted blood pumps
Inventor: ANTAKI JAMES F
IPC: A61M60/538
Filed: 1997-10-31
Granted: 1999-12-09
Abstract: An automatic speed control system continually adjusts the speed of an implanted cardiac assist blood pump to an optimum level for the varying physiological needs of the patient. It does this by periodically iteratively incrementing the speed setpoint of the pump. When the system detects the imminence of a ventricular collapse at diastole, it decrements the speed setpoint by a predetermined safety margin. An alarm condition is provided if the setpoint decrease results in an insufficient blood flow rate through the pump. The flow rate and imminence of ventricular collapse are computed in real time as functions of only the pump's motor current and speed setpoint.

Title: Rail fastening on concrete ties or the like by means of resilient tension clamps
IPC: E01B9/48
Filed: 1990-05-31
Granted: 1993-01-07
Abstract: The invention concerns a rail fastener on concrete ties (4) or the like including resilient tension clamps (6) of steel rods in the form of a W and angled guide plates (3) for the rail base (1a). This so-called HM rail fastener is inventively improved by a special shaping of the tension clamp and angled guide plate, to simplify the securing of the rail on the concrete ties, in that the rotation of the elastic strainers which was previously necessary in HM construction when passing from the preassembly to the assembly position is omitted. This is achieved in that the angled guide plate (3), which is provided with a rib (3a) extending longitudinally to the rail foot for abutment on the rail foot (1a), contains in this rib special recesses (3b) for the reception and retention of the free ends of the tension clamp in the preassembly position. A tension clamp (6) has outer legs (6b) which with expansion of the spacing from the inner legs (6d) against the rail foot (1a) become broader and their free ends (6a) end outside the middle portion (6e) and wherein the inner legs (6d) of the tension clamp (6) which surround the tie screw (5) are designed so that in the preassembly position they abut with their center portion (6e) the shaft (5a) of the tie screw, while the head (5b) of the tie screw (5) overlaps the inner leg (6d) in the assembly position. In a special embodiment, the tension clamp is so designed that its center portion permanently surrounds the tie screw (5), and its inner leg portions are brought together except for a small spacing.
