Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the field of treatments for nasal congestion, and in particular, to a method and apparatus for alleviating nasal congestion in a patient by mechanically stimulating the sneezing reflex in the patient to urge drainage of the nasal passageways. The method includes inserting an instrument having a work tip portion provided with at least one filament into the nostril of the patient. The nasal mucosa of the patient is then probed with the at least one filament to stimulate in the patient the sneeze reflex. This probing action causes the patient to sneeze. With the patient's mouth closed, the sneeze urges at least one of mucus, fluid and debris in the nasal passages of the patient to be forcibly expelled through the nostrils of the patient thereby draining the nasal cavity of the patient. The instrument used in the performance of this method includes a handle portion upon which the work tip portion is carried. The handle portion may be integrally formed with the work tip portion or releasably attachable thereto. The instrument is further provided with a physical stop associated with one of the work tip portion and the handle portion to prevent injury resulting from the working tip portion being inserted too deeply into the nasal passages of the patient.

Abstract: To provide a control method of a power transmission device which can prevent the generation of impacts and noises when a speed change mechanism is changed over from a neutral state to a first speed gear without using a brake mechanism at a low cost. In a control method of a power transmission device for controlling a power transmission device which transmits a rotational power of a crankshaft of an internal combustion engine to an output side by way of a clutch mechanism and a speed change mechanism, the speed change mechanism is automatically changed over from a neutral state to a first speed gear during a period from a point of time Ts at which an ignition switch is turned on to a point of time at which an engine rotational speed arrives at a steady-state idling rotational speed Nid due to starting of an internal combustion engine.

Abstract: Systems and Methods are provided for deactivating IP sessions of lower priority. There may be instances when a mobile device moves from a first area supporting a plurality of IP sessions to a second area supporting fewer IP sessions. In this situation, if the mobile device has more IP sessions than is supported by the second area, then the wireless network will deactivate IP sessions. According to an embodiment of the application, the mobile device determines a respective priority for each of the IP sessions and transmits an indication of each respective priority to the wireless network. According to another embodiment of the application, the wireless network deactivates IP sessions that are indicated to be of lower priority. Accordingly, IP sessions that are not deactivated are those indicated by the mobile device to be of greater priority.

Abstract: The invention relates to a security element with an optically variable structure, having an embossed structure. The embossed structure is combined in such a fashion with a coating contrasting with the surface of the data carrier that at least partial areas of the coating are visible when viewed perpendicularly, however are concealed when viewed obliquely from a predetermined viewing direction. Upon alternating perpendicular and oblique viewing thus a tilt effect occurs. According to the invention the optically variable structure consists of a coating in the form of a full-surface, linear and multicolor, i. e. at least bicolor screen structure, as well as an embossed structure. Herein both the coating and the embossed structure contain at least one piece of information that is visible to a viewer, and these pieces of information partly overlap each other. The information of the full-surface, linear and multicolor screen structure of the coating is designed in particular as a negative and/ or positive representation in the form of a modulation of the lines of the screen structure.

Abstract: Various stiffness characteristics of removable and replaceable absorbent core components used with disposable absorbent articles are disclosed. The replaceable core component can be constructed with bending stiffness characteristics making it easier to install in a diaper chassis. In other instances, a relatively stiff insertion tool may also be used to engage a relatively flexible replaceable core component to aid with insertion of the replacaeable core component into the diaper chassis. Aspects of the present disclosure involve replaceable core components alone or in combination with insertion tools having bending stiffness characteristics that reduce the likelihood of buckling and/or folding while installing the replaceable core component into the diaper chassis. The present disclosure also provides methods for testing replaceable core components and/or insertion tools to evaluate the bending stiffness characteristics associated therewith.

Abstract: The present inventors assessed the effect of anti-IL-6 receptor antibodies in suppressing chronic rejection reaction. They assessed the effect of anti-mouse IL-6 receptor antibody (MR16-1) administration in suppressing the chronic rejection reaction using a mouse model for post-heart-transplantation chronic rejection. The result of histopathological analysis of transplanted hearts extirpated 60 days after transplantation revealed that fibrosis of myocardium and vascular stenotic lesions, which are pathological conditions characteristic of the chronic rejection reaction, were significantly suppressed in the MR16-1-treated group as compared to the control group. Thus, MR16-1 administration was demonstrated to have the effect of suppressing chronic rejection reaction. Specifically, the present inventors discovered for the first time that the rejection reaction in the chronic phase after organ transplantation was suppressed by administering an anti-IL-6 receptor antibody.
