Abstract: A portal sleeve in combination with a stabilizer for stabilizing the portal sleeve includes a portal sleeve having a distal end for being disposed in an anatomical cavity and a proximal end for being disposed externally of the anatomical cavity and a stabilizer including a body disposed on the portal sleeve and being movable longitudinally along the portal sleeve for insertion in an opening in a wall forming the anatomical cavity. An expandable portion is carried by the body to be movable with the body along the portal sleeve and into the opening. The expandable portion is movable from a contracted position wherein the expandable portion is disposed close to the portal sleeve to facilitate insertion in the opening and an expanded position wherein the expandable portion is disposed further away from the portal sleeve to engage the anatomical cavity wall to resist withdrawal of the stabilizer body and the portal sleeve from the anatomical cavity wall.

Abstract: What is proposed is a device for feeding sewing material, particularly with curling-up edges, for a sewing machine having a guide body for guiding the sewing material. The guide body (6) has an elongate rolling-up edge (8) which is arranged transversely or obliquely relative to the direction of transport of the sewing material and which projects from the sliding face (7) of the guide body (6). When a cloth is drawn over the sliding face (7) of the guide body (6), its curled-up edge is uncurled on the rolling-up edge (8) of the guide body (6). The rolling-up edge (8) has various special forms of construction depending on the nature of the sewing material to be processed. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to clamping, coupling and connecting means to be used and with pipes of different materials and also with hose like fluid conduits of plastics, rubber or like materials. The clamp relates to the kind known as clamp couplings, and are used also, but not exclusively for the repair of metal or synthetic material conduits which have sprung a leak, especially in cases where the immediate and speedy repair is mandatory in order to avoid loss of the respective fluid, be it liquid or gaseous, and the possible environmental damage which might be a consequence of such leak. In its broadest aspects such means comprise a relatively wide metal band (11) provided with a tightening arrangement (6), the said band being designed to be placed around a pipe or hose (2), such that by means of the unique tightening arrangement could be tightened around the said conduit.

Abstract: An osmotic device (10) for delivering a beneficial drug, such as an anti-microbial drug, into the mouth of a human patient is disclosed. The device (10) has a size and shape adapting it to be comfortably retained in the mouth for extended periods of time. The device comprises a thin semipermeable membrane wall (12) surrounding a compartment (13) housing a beneficial agent (14) that has at least some degree of solubility in aqueous biological fluids, e.g., saliva, and a fibrous support material (15) composed of hydrophilic water-insoluble fibers. A passageway (17) in the wall (12) connects the agent 14) with the exterior of the device (10). The wall (12) is permeable to the passage of aqueous biological fluid but substantially impermeable to the passage of the fibrous support material (15). The fibrous support material (15), once hydrated, provides a rigid support for the thin semipermeable wall (12) and prevents the device (10) from prematurely releasing the beneficial agent (14) even when the device (10) is subjected to patient sucking.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for drying of a cellulosic fibrous structure having constant basis weight and/or density or multiple regions varying in basis weight and/or density. Such a cellulosic fibrous structure may have a nonuniform moisture distribution prior to drying by the disclosed method and apparatus. An equally or more uniform moisture distribution is achieved by providing a micropore medium in the air flow path which has a greater flow resistance than the interstices between the fibers in the cellulosic fibrous structure web. The micropore medium is the limiting orifice in the air flow used in the drying process. The micropore medium may be executed in a laminate of plural laminae, each of successively increasing or decreasing pore size. This arrangement provides the advantage that minimal sagging or deformation of each lamina into the next coarser lamina occurs and lateral air flow between the micropore medium and the cellulosic fibrous structure is reduced. The micropore medium may be disposed either upstream or downstream in the air flow path of the cellulosic fibrous structure to be through-air dried.

Abstract: A method of examining hormone-dependent tumors which comprises culturing tumor tissues in each of (a) a medium, (b) a medium containing a hormone synthetase substrate, and (c) a medium containing both a hormone synthetase substrate and a hormone synthetase inhibitor, measuring the growth rate of tumor cells in each medium, determining (i) the ratio of the growth rate of tumor cells in the presence of a hormone synthetase substrate to that in a medium alone and (ii) the ratio of the growth rate of tumor cells in the presence of both a hormone synthetase substrate and a hormone synthetase inhibitor to that in a medium alone. This method enables judging whether there are any hormone synthetase and hormone-dependent growth of hormone-dependent tumors readily at the same time. Further it can be employed for developing a new method of classifying tumors and selecting a guide line for tumor therapy.
