Title: Load transfer plate for in situ concrete slabs
Inventor: PARKES NIGEL K
IPC: E01C11/14
Filed: 2002-09-13
Abstract: A tapered load plate transfers loads across a joint between adjacent concret e floor slabs. The top and bottom surfaces may taper from approximately 4 inch es wide to a narrow substantially pointed end over a length of approximately 12 inches. The tapered load plate accommodates differential shrinkage of cast-i n- place concrete slabs. When adjacent slabs move away from each other, the narrow end of the tapered load plate moves out of the void that it created i n the slab thus allowing the slabs to move relative to one another in a direction parallel to the joint. Tapered load plates may be assembled into a load-plate basket with the direction of the taper alternating from one taper ed load plate to the next to account for off-center saw cuts. A tapered load plate and an end cap may be used to provide load transfer across an expansio n joint.

Title: Support pole and rail system
Inventor: STELZER WILHELM S
IPC: A61G7/053
Filed: 2004-04-28
Abstract: A safety support pole has upper and lower ends adapted to abut firmly and releasably against opposed ceiling and floor surfaces respectively. A length adjuster is mounted into the end cooperating with a releasably mountable torque applicator, and in one embodiment also with a torque indicator. A spring mounted in the upper end resiliently biases the upper end away from a pressure distributor, distributing pressure onto the ceiling surface along a longitudinal axis of the support pole. The mounting of the pole against and between the ceiling and floor resists rotational movement of the upper end relative to the pressure distributor. The lower end of the pole is mountable to a base member releasably positionable on the floor surface in vertically opposed relation to the pressure distributor.

Abstract: L'induction de la néogenèse de cellules bêta a été associée à l'épithélium canalaire, bien qu'environ 80 % du pancréas soit composé de cellules acineuses. Etonnamment, les cellules acineuses pancréatiques contribuent à la néogenèse des cellules bêta. L'obstruction canalaire partielle (OCP) du pancréas constitue un inducteur connu de la néogenèse des cellules bêta conduisant à l'expansion de la masse des cellules bêta, effet semblant être induit par l'INGAP, une protéine des cellules acineuses identifiée dans la régénération du pancréas de hamster. Nous avons examiné les effets de l'OCP sur l'incorporation de la thymidine tritiée par les cellules acineuses et bêta du pancréas chez les hamsters syriens femelles. Une seule dose de thymidine tritiée a été administrée à tous les animaux deux semaines après l'OCP. Les animaux ont ensuite été sacrifiés 1 heure ou 6 semaine après l'injection. L'incorporation de la thymidine tritiée dans les cellules acineuses était maximale 2 semaines après l'OCP et a décliné 8 semaines après l'OCP. L'incorporation de la thymidine tritiée dans les cellules bêta était inversement proportionnelle à celle observée dans les cellules acineuses. Deux semaines après l'OCP, l'absorption de la thymidine tritiée par les cellules bêta était relativement faible et a augmenté sensiblement 8 semaines après l'OCP, conformément à la néogenèse des cellules bêta trouvant leur origine dans les cellules acineuses. La microscopie électronique a révélé des cellules comportant à la fois des granules proenzymatiques et endocriniens, ce qui suggère encore une transdifférenciation des cellules acineuses en cellules endocriniennes. Dans une deuxième expérience, on a administré aux hamsters un pentadécapeptide de la protéine INGAP ou un volume équivalent de solution saline pendant 10 jours. Le nombre d'amas de cellules bêta associés aux cellules acineuses et aux îlots supplémentaires dans les hamsters traités au peptide INGAP a doublé, ce qui a induit une augmentation de 2,8 de la masse globale des cellules bêta des îlots supplémentaires. La différenciation des cellules acineuses en cellules bêta constitue une autre voie à la néogenèse des cellules bêta ; le peptide INGAp joue un rôle important dans ce processus.
