Abstract: D'une manière générale, la présente invention concerne des procédés permettant de promouvoir la fonction de cellules de l'oreille interne en utilisant des neurégulines. Un aspect nouveau de l'invention concerne l'emploi de neurégulines comme facteurs de croissance, pour promouvoir la fonction de cellules épithéliales sensorielles non visuelles. Le traitement de ces cellules pour obtenir ces effets peut être effectué en mettant lesdites cellules en contact avec un polypeptide qui figure dans la description. Les traitements peuvent être appliqués pour ralentir ou arrêter la perte nette de cellules ou pour accroître la quantité ou la qualité du tissu épithélial sensoriel non visuel qui existe chez le vertébré considéré.

Abstract: The method involves an extra step involving the combination of a detector error signal with a control parameter, which is performed by an additional summer arrangement whose output parameter acts on a pre-hold unit. The detector error signal can also act via a fine alignment on a second summer arrangement as a fine adjustment angle. The error signal acts as a control parameter for the pre-hold angle and/or the coarse adjustment angle. The fine adjustment angle also acts simultaneously upon the first summer arrangement. The alignment and maintenance of the link are achieved iteratively using the measured parameters.

Abstract: The vehicle ash tray has a pull out drawer mounted in a recess in the dashboard. An electric cigarette lighter (18) is mounted on a pivot support frame and pops up into a sloping position when the ash tray is pulled out. A simple safety catch (34,36) secures the cigarette lighter and prevents it from being pushed down. The safety catch is only released when the ash tray is pushed back into the recess. This prevents the user from trapping fingers in the ash tray, or burning fingers by having to push down on the lighter when trying to close the tray.

Abstract: A pilot signal is generated and added to a modulated carrier in a
transmitter. The pilot signal is identical to an unmodulated carrier and has a
level higher than a modulated signal to be transmitted. The pilot signal,
transmitted together with the modulated carrier, is extracted at a diversity
receiver and is correlated with the transmitted signals appearing at a plurality of
diversity paths in the receiver in order to generate respective correlation
coefficients. Subsequently, the received signals are respectively compensated
for, using the correlation coefficients, in terms of levels and phases and then
applied to a maximum-ratio combiner. The pilot signal included in the output of
the maximum-ratio combiner is removed before the output of the maximum-ratio
combiner is demodulated.
