Abstract: A camera having an image plane which is adjustable with respect to the optical axis is used to determine range information from focus. This imaging geometry eliminates the usual focusing need of image plane movement by replacing the two standard mechanical actions of focusing and panning by panning alone. Range estimation or generation of a focused image of a scene can therefore be performed substantially at the speed of panning.

Abstract: A process for producing molten pig iron uses direct reduction of iron ore in a pre-reduction stage followed by a final reduction stage. In the pre-reduction stage iron ore is pre-reduced in a melting cyclone (1) by means of a reducing process gas originating from the final reduction stage. A post-combustion occurs in the reducing process gas in the melting cyclone so that said iron ore in said melting cyclone is at least partly melted. The partly melted iron ore passes downwardly into a metallurgical vessel (4) situated beneath the cyclone in which the final reduction takes place by supply of coal and oxygen, thereby forming a reducing process gas. A partial post-combustion occurs in the reducing process gas in the metallurgical vessel by means of said oxygen supplied thereto. The post-combustion ratio of the gas on exiting the metallurgical vessel is not more than 0.55. The coal is supplied directly into the slag layer (7) so that said partial post-combustion in said metallurgical vessel is at least partly effected in the slag layer. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A protein called transforming growth factor-beta (TGF- beta ) is important in causing the inflammation and progressive scar tissue in pulmonary fibrosis. The TGF- beta 1 isoform is important in the pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis. It is usually secreted non-covalently bound to a latency associated peptide (LAP) which renders it biologically inactive. The inactive form is called latent TGF- beta 1 (L-TGF- beta 1). Activation of L-TGF- beta 1 involves L-TGF- beta 1/TSP-1 complex which interacts with the TSP-1 receptor, CD36, to process L-TGF- beta 1 to the mature form in the presence of plasmin. Synthetic or natural CD36 peptides or fragments thereof can be used to prevent activation of TGF- beta 1, in mammalian alveolar macrophages, thereby controlling the inflammation process.

Abstract: An electrotransport system (20) for delivery of a drug through the skin (63) of a patient includes a tactile signal generator (36) for generating and transmitting a tactile signal to the skin of a patient upon the occurrence of an event associated with the operation of the system. The tactile signal may be an electric AC signaling current (Sr, Sp) applied through the skin, ie, an electric current different from the therapeutic electrotransport drive current. The electric signaling current is preferably a pulsed current of sufficient frequency and amplitude to allow the patient to feel it. The tactile signal may alternatively be generated by an electromechanical device in contact with the skin such as a piezoelectric vibrating element or magnetodynamic element such as a solenoid driven pin. The waveform of the tactile signaling current preferably has a zero average current component such that no net therapeutic drug is delivered by the tactile signal current. In certain cases, the tactile signaling current may contribute to electrotransport drug delivery.
