Inventor: LAYTON JAMES E
IPC: H01F37/00
Filed: 2002-11-15
Abstract: An inductor is wound axially around a cylindrical center structure, such as a core or form, so that each turn includes portions extending axially along a circumferential outer surface of the center structure and portions extending across the end surfaces of the center structure.        Adjacent axial portions, which are preferably but not necessarily consecutive turns, carry current in the same direction to the extent possible. External magnetic fields therefore fall off rapidly and at least partially offset so that the inductor can handle high currents such as those relating to filtered electric power transmitted into a borehole for powering artificial lift equipment.

Title: Methods of therapy for hiv infection
Inventor: SAHNER DAVID
IPC: A61K38/20
Filed: 2001-10-11
Abstract: Methods for promoting immunologic control of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in an HIV-infected subject are provided. The methods comprise administering to the subject highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) fo r at least one cycle of an intermittent dosing regimen in combination with administration of a pharmaceutical composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of interleukin-2 (IL-2) or variant thereof. The combination  of daily or intermittent administration of IL-2 (or variant thereof) and intermittent HAART promotes immunologic control of viral replication in the absence of HAART, thereby prolonging the length of time a patient may discontinue HAART before viral rebound necessitates further administration o f HAART. Administration of IL-2 therapy in combination with an intermittent HAART dosing regimen provides an effective method for treating a subject infected with HIV.
