Patent CA-2345663-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LEE JEFFREY R
IPC: G01N33/574
Filed: 1998-10-01
Abstract: It has been determined that a specific metaplastic lineage that contains immunoreactivity for a trefoil polypeptide, spasmolytic peptide, is associated with and gives rise to the vast majority of human adenocarcinomas. The identification of this Spasmolytic Polypeptide Expressing Metaplasia (SPEM) is a major factor for grading of biopsies of the stomach to assess risk for gastric cancer. It also forms the basis of a method for serological screening for those at risk for gastric cancer. In a preferred embodiment, antibodies to spasmolytic peptide (hSP) are used in immunostaining of biopsies of gastric tissue obtained by endoscopy for grading biopsies. Those patients having these cells, characterized by a morphology more typical of a type of cell present normally in the intestine and not stomach, Brunner's gland cells, are at risk of developing adenocarcinoma. Since these cells express hSP, antibodies or nucleic acid probes hybridizing to mRNA encoding hSP, can be used for rapid detection of the cells in tissue biopsies. The antibodies can also be used in serological tests for screening and following patients at risk for gastric cancer. In combination with evidence of previous or present infection with H.  pylori, the test are predictive of the likelihood of developing adenocarcinoma.

Title: Enhanced membrane electrode devices useful for electrodeposition coating
Inventor: LEE CHENG H
IPC: C25D21/18
Filed: 1999-10-28
Abstract: One electrode is provided in association with the object to be coated, the other electrode. A pre-stretched ion-exchange membrate in a thin tubular for m is sandwiched in-between two nonconductive water permeable screen tubular housings. The assembly contains a supply line that provides a water way for the electrolyte to flow from the top of the device into a lower cap, then to  the lower cap reservoir that allows stabilization and disbursement of electrolyte through the riffled housing. Inertia developed through this defined pattern creates a swirling action that scrubs the impurities away fr om the anode, and to the top of the device to be carried out top. The location of the supply line is just inside the inner screen inserted through both the upper housing and lower cap. The tubular electrode is provided to the inside  of membrane housing completing the inner portion of the waterway return chamber.
Patent CA-2351006-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HARDTKE UWE
IPC: B21D28/28
Filed: 2001-06-19
Abstract: A method and a device for producing leadthroughs on a hollow profile useing a high fluidic pressure in an internal high-pressure forming tool. Dome-like secondary shaped elements are formed outwards in a radial direction from this hollow profile by the fluidic pressurizing. The secondary shaped elements are then reverse drawn into the interior of the hollow profile by punches at the prevailing internal high pressure. A punched slug is cut out of the base of the reverse-drawn secondary shaped element by the punch. A bent-in margin of the secondary shaped element lying next to the cutout is then straightened by the punch in a displacing movement directed further inwards by being pressed against a hollow-profile wall. To ensure the process reliability when producing the leadthrough even in the case of a hollow-profile material having low formability and to retain the strength of the hollow profile in the transition region to the leadthrough, it is provided in each case to form a secondary shaped element out of the hollow profile at two opposite locations, to reverse draw the secondary shaped elements after the forming, in each case into the hollow-profile interior by a punch in such a way that the bases are at a distance from one another in a f final state of the reverse drawing, and to sever the punched slug from the respective base by interaction between the fluidic internal high pressure and an encircling cutting edge of the punch.

Abstract: A vehicle is controlled by a sensor such as an EyeTap device or a headworn camera so that the vehicle drives in whatever direction the driver looks. The vehicle may be a small radio controlled car or airplane or helicopter driven of flown by a person outside the car or plane, or the vehicle may be a car, plane, or helicopter, or the like, driven or flown by a person sitting inside it. A differential direction system allows a person's head position to be compared to the position of the vehicle, to bring the difference in orientations to a zero, and a near zero difference may be endowed with a deliberate drift toward a zero difference. Preferably at least one of the sensors (preferably a headworn sensor) is a video camera. Preferably the sensor difference drifts toward zero when the person is going along a straight path, so that the head position for going straight ahead will not drift away from being straight ahead. The invention can be used with a wide range of toy cars, model aircraft, or fullsize vehicles, airplanes, fighter jets, or the like.
