Abstract: Methods and devices are described for the regulation of Transforming Growth Factor (TGF)- .beta.l, .beta.2, and/or .beta.3 protein gene expression in bone cells and other tissues via the capacitive coupling or inductive coupling of specific and selective electric fields to the bone cells or other tissues, where the specific and selective electric fields are generated by application of specific and selective electric and electromagnetic signals to electrodes or one or more coils or other field generating device disposed with respect to the bone cells or other tissues so as to facilitate the treatment of diseased or injured bone and other tissues. By gene expression is meant the up-regulation or down-regulation of the process whereby specific portions (genes) of the human genome (DNA) are transcribed into mRNA and subsequently translated into protein. Methods and devices are provided for the targeted treatment of injured or diseased bone and other tissue that include generating specific and selective electric and electromagnetic signals that generate fields in the target tissue optimized for increase of TGF- .beta.l, .beta.2, and/or .beta.3 protein gene expression and exposing bone and other tissue to the fields generated by specific and selective signals so as to regulate TGF- .beta.l, .beta.2, and/or .beta.3 protein gene expression in such tissue. The resulting methods and devices are useful for the targeted treatment of bone fractures, fractures at risk, delayed unions, nonunion of fractures, bone defects, spine fusions, osteonecrosis or avascular necrosis, as an adjunct to other therapies in the treatment of one or all of the above, in the treatment of osteoporosis, and in other conditions in which TGF- .beta.l, .beta.2, and/or .beta.3 protein may be implicated.

Title: Segmented auger for a concrete dispensing apparatus
Inventor: ZIMMERMAN MELVIN M
IPC: B65G33/32
Filed: 2007-06-05
Abstract: A segmented auger mechanism is mounted in the hopper of a concrete dispensing apparatus used to distribute a hydrated concrete mixture into a horizontally disposed form to manufacture pre-cast concrete structures, such as concrete wall panels used to form a foundation for a residential or commercial building. The auger mechanism is formed of connected segments that can be individually and independently removed from the concrete structure for service and repair. The auger is rotatably supported by a pair of end bearings supported on the opposing end walls of the hopper of the dispensing apparatus, and by at least one interior bearing rotatably supporting a jack shaft having opposing half-round connecting portions for attachment to a corresponding connecting portion on the auger shaft. Removal of a segment of the auger mechanism facilitates the removal of the entire auger mechanism to minimize the down time of the concrete dispensing apparatus.

Patent CA-2665009-A1 (CA)
Inventor: RYAN THOMAS J
IPC: H04M3/527
Filed: 2009-04-29
Abstract: Streaming voice signals, such as might be received at a contact center or similar operation, are analyzed to detect the occurrence of one or more unprompted, predetermined utterances. The predetermined utterances preferably constitute a vocabulary of words and/or phrases having particular meaning within the context in which they are uttered. Detection of one or more of the predetermined utterances during a call causes a determination of response-determinative significance of the detected utterance(s). Based on the response-determinative significance of the detected utterance(s), a responsive action may be further determined.  Additionally, long term storage of the call corresponding to the detected utterance may also be initiated. Conversely, calls in which no predetermined utterances are detected may be deleted from short term storage. In this manner, the present invention simplifies the storage requirements for contact centers and provides the opportunity to improve caller experiences by providing shorter reaction times to potentially problematic situations.

Title: Moving object noise elimination processing device and moving object noise elimination processing program
Inventor: UEMURA TOMOMASA
IPC: H04N5/217
Filed: 2008-03-10
Abstract: A moving object noise elimination processing device and a moving object noise elimination processing program are provided for making it possible to effectively eliminate a noise due to a moving object in front of a photographing object with a relatively simple method. A moving object noise elimination process involves first photographing an image every predetermined sampling interval .DELTA.t and the photographed images are stored in association with time (S10, S12). Next, with respect to the currently photographed image frame data and the previously photographed image frame data, each corresponding pixel brightness value is compared (S14, S16, S18). For each pixel, the one with a higher brightness value is then eliminated as a noise and that with lower brightness value is left (S20) The brightness value in each pixel of the image frame is updated with the left brightness value in each pixel and the updated one is output (S22, S24).  Further, a moving object frequency is calculated from a ratio of the total number of data to the number of data with the eliminated brightness values and the calculated one is output (S26, S28).
