Patent EP-1894534-A2 (EP)
Inventor: WILLIAMS RONALD
IPC: A61B17/22
Filed: 2001-07-03
Abstract: Improved devices, systems, and methods for inhibiting hyperplasia in blood vessels provide controlled and safe cryotherapy treatment of a target portion within a body lumen of a patient. Efficacy of endoluminal cryogenic cooling can be enhanced by limiting cooling of target tissue using a thermal barrier disposed between a dual balloon cryotherapy catheter. Containment of both balloons can be monitored by applying a vacuum within a space between the first and second ballons, and by coupling the vacuum space to a fluid shutoff so as to inhibit flow of cryogenic fluid in response to a change in the vacuum space. Controlled cooling of the vessel can be improved by use of a nebulizer in fluid communication with a cryogenic liquid lumen and a gas supply lumen.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for call set-up and a telecommunication system. The telecommunication system comprises service database means (10, 20, 30 and 40) comprising teleservice price data. The service database means (10, 20, 30 and 40) are connected to different service provider means (15 to 17, 25, 26, 35, 45, 46) representing various operators. A control means (11, 12, 21 to 23, 31 to 33, 41 and 42) is in connection with the subscriber terminal of the telecommunication system, and is regularly, or at a preferred time, in connection with the service database means (10, 20, 30 and 40) for transmission of service information to the control means (11, 12, 21 to 23, 31 to 33, 41 and 42). The control means (11, 12, 21 to 23, 31 to 33, 41 and 42) controls the call set-up of the subscriber terminal so that the subscriber uses the operator (15-17, 25, 26, 35, 45, 46) offering the most inexpensive teleservice. To further increase the efficiency, the service database means (10, 20, 30 and 40) form their own service areas, which are connected to each other as a network.

Abstract: A magnetic recording medium for heat-assisted magnetic recording includes a magnetic data storage layer having magnetic grains separated by grain boundary phases. The grain boundary phases have a higher thermal conductivity than a thermal conductivity of the magnetic grains. The magnetic recording medium further includes a heat sink layer and one or more intermediate layers disposed between the magnetic data storage layer and the heat sink layer. Each of the one or more intermediate layers has crystalline phase grains separated by grain boundary phases. The grain boundary phases have a higher thermal conductivity than a thermal conductivity of the crystalline phase grains. The grain boundary phases in both the magnetic data storage layer and the intermediate layers provide high thermal conductivity conduits for dissipating heat from the magnetic data storage layer to the heatsink layer.

Abstract: La présente invention comprend un inhalateur à poudre sèche (DPI) qui utilise le flux d'inhalation d'un patient pour concentrer l'énergie dans un élément aéroélastique pour désagréger et disperser une dose de poudre. Le résultat est un DPI qui délivre une dose ne dépendant pas des capacités d'inspiration du patient, résolvant un problème majeur des DPI classiques. Une tension accrue dudit élément entraîne des vibrations à fréquence supérieure et une meilleure dispersion de la poudre. La tension dudit élément peut être modifiée avant de donner le DPI au patient, permettant une individualisation pour des patients uniques ou des groupes de patients. En outre, le DPI comporte des caractéristiques qui augmentent la turbulence du flux d'air lorsqu'il passe par le dispositif, augmentant encore la dispersion et la désagrégation de la poudre. Le DPI peut contenir une dose unique ou des doses multiples. Les doses de poudre peuvent être distribuées directement sur l'élément aéroélastique, ou peuvent être dans un emballage sous blister adjacent.

Abstract: In the various embodiments, base station (103), or base station controller (101), will determine whether mobile station (107) is sending access requests beyond a limit predetermined to represent normal mobile station behavior. If the mobile station exceeds this limit, the network, via base station (103) or other base stations such as base station (105), will send a maintenance message to the mobile station (107) for the purpose of limiting its access requests. The maintenance message may comprise a parameter that specifies a limited number of access requests (109), (111) the mobile station (107) may make within a given time period. The mobile station (107) may still be allowed to send access requests (109) for the purpose of making an emergency call, and may further be limited to sending access requests only if the emergency call is placed from the mobile station (107) keypad.

Abstract: The genetic polymorphism LRRK2 (leucine-rich repeat kinase 2)-T1602S is significantly associated with conversion from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to Alzheimer's disease (AD), with the patients with TT genotype being at greater risk to progress to Alzheimer's disease. The LRRK2-T2352 also showed a trend for conversion to Alzheimer's disease, with the patients with CC genotype tending to progress to Alzheimer's disease. Similar to the APOE-E4 allele, in the presence of a BuChE-K variant, LRRK2-T1602S and LRRK2-T2352 showed a greater association with the rate of conversion from mild cognitive impairment to Alzheimer's disease. In another study with placebo-treated Alzheimer's disease patients, LRRK2-T1602S and LRRK2-T2352 showed a same trend of association. The Alzheimer's disease patients with TT genotype of LRRK2-T1602S or CC genotype of LRRK2-T2352 tended to decline faster on cognitive performance over 6 months, especially in the presence of a BuChE-K variant. The association between the two common LRRK2 polymorphisms and Alzheimer's disease progression shows that LRRK2 may play a role in Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis, especially disease progression, and that polymorphisms of LRRK2 can be used as biomrkers of this progression.

Ns différents ensembles de M composantes fréquentielles complexes sont générés par la mise en correspondance de chacun des Ns différents ensembles de N composantes fréquentielles complexes sur un ensemble de M fréquences porteuses. Après le façonnage, une transformée de Fourier discrète inverse (IDFT) génère un ensemble candidat de N symboles du domaine temporel à partir de chacun des Ns différents ensembles de M composantes fréquentielles complexes. Celui parmi les Ns ensembles candidats différents de N symboles du domaine temporel qui est associé au PAPR le plus petit est sélectionné pour poursuivre le traitement.
