Title: Method allowing cyclic pacing with average rate just above the intrinsic rate
Inventor: MOWER MORTON M
IPC: A61N1/362
Filed: 1999-05-21
Abstract: Method and apparatus for cyclic ventricular pacing starting at a rate just above the intrinsic atrial firing rate (overdrive pacing), followed by relaxation to a rate just below the intrinsic atrial firing rate (ventricular escape). The method and apparatus can be applied to one or both ventricles, and can utilize one or more electrodes per ventricle. The electrode(s) can be applied to inner or outer ventricular surfaces. Relaxation protocols as a function of time can be linear, curvilinear to include exponential, or mixtures thereof. Furthermore, relaxation protocols can include one or more periods of time during which the pacing rate is held constant. Typically, the average ventricular pacing rate using this invention will be slightly greater than the intrinsic atrial firing rate, though alternate embodiments that encompass average ventricular pacing rates that are equal to or slightly less than the intrinsic atrial firing rate are also envisioned. Application of this method and apparatus to a heart in need thereof will produce a heart with an optimally minimized energy output requirement.

Title: Chimeric animal model susceptible to human hepatitis c virus infection
Inventor: KNETEMAN NORMAN M
IPC: C12N9/64
Filed: 2001-03-16
Abstract: The present invention features a non-human animal model that is susceptible to infection by human hepatotrophic pathogens, particularly human hepatitis C virus (HCV). The model is based on a non-human, immunocompromised transgenic animal having a human-mouse chimeric liver, where the transgene provides for expression of a urokinase-type plasminogen activator in the liver. The invention also features methods for identifying candidate therapeutic agents, e.g., agents having antiviral activity against HCV infection. The animals of the invention are also useful in assessing toxicity of various agents, as well as the activity of agents in decreasing blood lipids.

IPC: A61N5/067
Filed: 1993-05-14
Abstract: Described are SLAs for the performance levels of soft and mid-range lasers up to a maximum of 500 mW; these SLAs make the laser systems inherently safe and thus put them in a lower class of danger. Described are various SLAs with activating and operating lock-out devices which can be switched off by a reflected-light ranging sensor or by proximity switches or by sensor contacts for conductivity or by pressure sensors or by mechanical closure of the beam channel upon contact with or approach to the material to be irradiated. Realization, arrangement and material used in the sensor contacts are described. To enable the SLAs to be serviced, the laser system is provided with a safety service closure which keeps the laser system in an inherently safe state during the removal of the SLAs.

Title: Safety belt retractor having webbing clamping means
Inventor: FOHL ARTHUR
IPC: B60R22/42
Filed: 1990-01-26
Abstract: In a load-receiving housing (10), a retraction shaft (12) is rotatably mounted. A safety belt-clamping device consists of a clamping element (52) mounted movably on the housing (10) and a clamping face (66) which is fixed to the housing and lies opposite said clamping element at a distance. The actuation of the clamping element (52) occurs by means of an actuation extension (42) on a ring (38) provided with an internal toothing (40) and rotatably mounted on a side plate of the housing (10). On one side of the retraction shaft (12), two catches (30, 32) are mounted eccentrically and with their centre of gravity mounted in such a way that their contact faces lie opposite the internal toothing (40) of the ring (38). The catches (30, 32) are moved by mass inertial forces counter to the force of a restoring spring (31) into coupling engagement with the internal toothing (40) of the ring (38). The longitudinal component of the arcuate movement of the actuation extension (42) is directly transmitted via a pin (44) and an elongate hole (50) to the clamping element (52).

Title: Planar optical waveguides with double grooves
Inventor: ROGERS DAVID CARNEGIE
IPC: C03C15/00
Filed: 2000-05-19
Abstract: A method of producing a planar waveguiding device having a core [10] and a cladding [17]. The cladding has groves [11,12] directly interfacing [15,16] with the core [10]. A layer of core glass [10] is deposited on the surface of a substrate [23,24]. This layer is etched to produce a shaped layer which includes a first core portion [10] having the same configuration as the intended core [10] and an expanded core portion [30] wherein the core glass extends beyond the intended core boundary. A glass covering layer [21] is deposited over the etched core glass and grooves [11,12] are produced by etching through the covering layer [21] and into said expanded core portion [30]. This removes the core glass [30] extending beyond the intended core [10] boundary to produce interfaces [15,16] between the core [10] and the grooves [11,12]. All of the glasses are silica with additives to adjust the refractive index and/or the melting point.
