Title: Method for specifically producing a joined DNA fragment comprising a sequence derived from a target gene
Inventor: KUROSAWA NOBUYUKI
IPC: C12P19/34
Filed: 2010-09-02
Abstract: Provided is a method for selectively obtaining, for a given target gene, a "joined DNA fragment" wherein just a target gene fragment is joined with desired other DNA fragments, regardless of whether a DNA fragment containing a target gene sequence has been purified. In the provided method, a double-stranded joining DNA fragment containing a sequence A and/or a sequence B is selectively joined to the ends of a target gene fragment. A mixture of a double-stranded gene fragment, the 3' end of which is protruding, and the double-stranded joining DNA fragment, which are related in a prescribed manner, undergoes at least two cycles of thermal denaturation, reassociation, and DNA synthesis, resulting in a "joined DNA fragment," which is a double-stranded DNA fragment including at least one instance of a sequence resulting from joining sequence A, the target gene sequence, and sequence B. A "single-side joined DNA fragment" can also be obtained, by a similar method.

Title: MR spectroscopy system and method for diagnosing painful and non-painful intervertebral discs
Inventor: PEACOCK JAMES C
IPC: G16Z99/00
Filed: 2010-10-14
Abstract: An MR Spectroscopy (MRS) system and approach is provided for diagnosing painful and non-painful discs in chronic, severe low back pain patients (DDD-MRS). A DDD-MRS pulse sequence generates and acquires DDD-MRS spectra within intervertebral disc nuclei for later signal processing and diagnostic analysis. An interfacing DDD-MRS signal processor receives output signals of the DDD-MRS spectra acquired and is configured to optimize signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) by an automated system that selectively conducts optimal channel selection, phase and frequency correction, and frame editing as appropriate for a given acquisition series. A diagnostic processor calculates a diagnostic value for the disc based upon a weighted factor set of criteria that uses MRS data extracted from the acquired and processed MRS spectra along regions associated with multiple chemicals that have been correlated to painful vs. non-painful discs. A diagnostic display provides a scaled, color coded legend and indication of results for each disc analyzed as an overlay onto a mid-sagittal T2 -weighted MRI image of the lumbar spine for the patient being diagnosed. Clinical application of the embodiments provides a non-invasive, objective, pain-free, reliable approach for diagnosing painful vs. non-painful discs by simply extending and enhancing the utility of otherwise standard MRI exams of the lumbar spine.

Title: Rotational atherectomy device with electric motor
Inventor: RIVERS JODY LEE
IPC: A61B17/3207
Filed: 2010-11-30
Abstract: An atherectomy device is disclosed, which is rotationally driven by an electric motor. In some designs, the device includes features unavailable on gas turbine-driven systems, such as the storing in memory of low/medium/high preset rotation speeds for particular models of handle, calculations of the amount of saline left in the IV and associated warnings when it gets sufficiently low, and automatic adjustment of the IV pump rate to a predetermined or calculated level when the rotational speed of the motor is changed. The electric motor has far more rotational inertia than a comparable gas turbine, so the system includes a control mechanism that helps prevent damage from excessive torque being applied to the distal end of the drive shaft. When an obstruction at the distal end is detected, by a drop in the motor rotational speed, the motor is released and is allowed to spin freely as a flywheel.
