Abstract: Derivatives of aryl and heterocyclic ureido and aryl and heterocyclic carboxamido phenoxy isobutyric acids have been found to inhibit the nonenzymatic glycation of proteins which often results in formation of advanced glycation endproducts and crosslinks. Many other phenoxyisobutyric acid derivatives as well as certain other compounds as set out in this disclosure also have been found to inhibit the nonenzymatic glycation of proteins. The nonenzymatic glycation and crosslinking of proteins is a part of the aging process with the glycation endproducts and crosslinking of long-lived proteins increasing with age. This process is increased at elevated concentrations of reducing sugars in the blood and in the intracellular environment such as occurs with diabetes. The structural and functional integrity of the affected molecules become perturbed by these modifications and can result in severe consequences. The compounds of the present invention can be used to inhibit this process of nonenzymatic glycation and therefore to inhibit some of the ill effects caused by diabetes or by aging. The compounds are also useful for preventing premature aging, spoilage of proteins in food and can prevent discoloration of teeth.

Abstract: Images created by electrical impedance tomography (EIT) are used to adjust one or more electrical parameters and obtain a desired degree of electroporation of cells in tissue. The parameters include current, voltage and a combination thereof. The cells are subjected to conditions such that they become permeabilized but are preferably not subjected to conditions which result in irreversible pore formation and cell death. The electroporation can analyze cell membranes, diagnose tissues and the patient as well as to move materials into and out of cells in a controlled manner.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for deep sub-micron layout optimization is described. Components of an integrated circuit (IC) design (e.g., gates) can be identified and manufactured using a phase shifting process to improve circuit density and/or performance as compared to a circuit manufactured without using phase shifting processes. In one embodiment, a first mask (e.g., a phase shift mask) is generated that includes the component to be manufactured using the phase shifting process. A second mask (e.g., a trim mask) is also generated to further process the structure created using the first mask. Both masks are defined based on a region (e.g., a diffusion region) in a different layer of the integrated circuit layout than the structure (e.g., the gate) being created with the phase shifting process.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une courroie de transmission non étagée. Un premier espace (CLNH) est formé entre une partie convexe et une partie concave ménagées dans des surfaces avant et arrière d'un élément métallique; et un second espace (CLy) est formé entre la face supérieure d'un ensemble annulaire métallique et la face inférieure de la patte d'un élément métallique. L'établissement du rapport (CLy) > (CLNH) assure que, en cas d'inclinaison de l'élément métallique, la partie convexe et la partie concave en premier viennent au contact l'une de l'autre, ce qui empêche l'abaissement de la durabilité lorsque la face inférieure de la patte vient au contact de l'ensemble annulaire métallique. Si TL représente l'épaisseur de l'ensemble annulaire métallique et D représente l'espace vertical dans une fente annulaire, et si la valeur D/TL dépasse 1-1/8, l'efficacité de la puissance de transmission décroît. Ainsi, en fixant une valeur de D/TL inférieure à 1-1/8, l'abaissement de la puissance de transmission peut être empêché, ce qui permet d'assurer l'efficacité de la puissance de transmission en même temps qu'on empêche l'abaissement de la durabilité de l'ensemble annulaire métallique imputable à l'inclinaison de l'élément métallique.

Abstract: A touch-sensitive input device has an exposed, continuous surface defining a planar area, and a grid of sense elements coextensive with the area of the exposed surface and responsive to engagement of the exposed surface by an operator to establish a position of said engagement of the exposed surface. The exposed surface varies in elevation across its planar area to form a series of tactile features. The exposed, continuous surface is affixed to the grid of sense elements. An electronic circuit is configured to interpret large-scale capacitance variations of the grid as an intended input from the operator in a region identified by the capacitance variation, and to interpret small-scale capacitance variations of the grid as a position of engagement of the exposed surface by the operator.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système et un procédé de traitement d'images mettant en oeuvre un processeur d'enregistrement (130) permettant de calculer une mesure statistique de la vraisemblance pour deux images volumétriques (110, 112), en fonction de l'hypothèse selon laquelle les images présentent un lien du point de vue des probabilités. La vraisemblance est calculée au moyen de probabilités de mutation (soit calculées à partir de connaissances antérieures de la relation des images, soit estimées simplement à partir des données des images) pour une partie ou pour l'ensemble des paires de voxels se trouvant dans le volume se chevauchant. La vraisemblance est calculée pour plusieurs transformations selon un mode itératif jusqu'à la découverte d'une transformation maximisant la vraisemblance. Celle-ci fournit un enregistrement optimal et les paramètres de la transformée optimisée sont transmis à une mémoire (150), en vue d'être utilisés par un système d'affichage (160) pour l'alignement des images destinées à un affichage composite. La vraisemblance optimisée présente une interprétation simple et moins abstraite et fournit une indication de la qualité de l'enregistrement.

Abstract: Progressive I-slice refreshed MPEG data streams are transcoded to I-frame based MPEG data streams to enable trick play modes on a television appliance, such as pause, scan forward, scan backward, jump, or still frame displays for use, e.g., in film indexing (chapters). A progressive I-slice refreshed MPEG data stream 10 having I-slices distributed over multiple P-frames is received by a television appliance 300 . The P-frames are decoded at decoder 220 to recover the I-slices which make up a complete I-frame. The recovered I-slices are assembled (e.g., by processor 230 ) into a complete I-frame. The complete I-frame is encoded at an encoder 250 . A selected P-frame in the MPEG data stream is replaced with the encoded I-frame (e.g., via multiplexer 255 ) to provide an encoded I-frame based data stream 200 . The I-frame based data stream is stored (e.g., in memory 240 ) for trick play mode use.
