Abstract: The invention is a method for detecting duplicate records on a list or in a file and comprises a number of steps. The steps include entering a list, comprised of one or more records, to a data processing system; then, applying a nickname lookup table to the records to determine a common first name. Once a common name has been determined, the method matches a first record from the list with a second record from the list by comparing the fields of the first record with the fields of at least one other record; the comparison is based on a set of pre-determined criteria. The matching sequence determines a duplicate set, wherein the duplicate set is comprised of at least two records with fields that match. The method then lists matching records sequentially so that the system can create a new record by filling each empty field with a next available corresponding field from a subsequent record within the duplicate set. The newly created record is then retained on the original list; and the duplicate records are placed on a second list.  Pre-sorting of the list can occur just prior to the matching sequence as well as just prior to outputting the final list. Additionally, the system operator can be given a number of options to provide flexibility. These options can include: manually correcting a record on the duplicate records list; deleting an address record from the list of duplicates; or, outputting the record.

Abstract: An improved Broadside SOG microphone assembly is realized by employing a microphone assembly having at least three ports arranged in a non-colinear fashion with the at least three ports defining and being in a "gradient" plane and with both outer adjacent differential pair of ports aligned in a direction substantially toward a prospective talker's lips. Thus, the inner port(s) is always closer to the prospective talker's lips. Each outer differential pair of ports forms a dipole which yields a high spatial gradient and, hence, higher speech sensitivity since they are pointed substantially toward the prospective talker's lips. Just as important, as the prospective talker's lip position relative to the microphone varies, this alignment of each outer differential pair of ports will result in the least change in the dipole sensitivity and, therefore, the lowest Broadside SOG microphone position sensitivity. Another advantage of this arrangement is that it similarly has significantly reduced position sensitivity with angular departure from the nominal Broadside prospective talker's lip position, owing again to the orientation of the prospective talker's lips. In a preferred embodiment, a single FOG microphone element is employed which accepts four distinct acoustic signals from acoustic transmission lines from four distinct ports arranged in a non-colinear fashion. The four ports define and are in a "gradient'? plane with both outer adjacent differential pair of ports aligned in a direction substantially toward the prospective talker's lips. Thus, the inner ports are always closer to the prospective talker's lips. Each outer differential pair of ports forms a dipole which yields a high spatial gradient and, hence, higher speech sensitivity since they are pointed in a direction substantially toward the prospective talker's lips. To this end, the outer ports are plus (+) ports and the inner ports are minus (-) ports, or vice versa,. referring to each side of the FOG element's diaphragm.

Title: Compositions and methods for advanced glycosylation endproduct-mediated modulation of amyloidosis
Inventor: VITEK MICHAEL P
IPC: A61K31/425
Filed: 1995-02-02
Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the non-enzymatic glycosylation of amyloidogenic proteins and the consequent formation of advanced glycosylation endproducts (AGEs). It has been found that formation of AGE-amyloidogenic proteins can enhance amyloidosis. The invention further relates to compositions and methods for the prevention and treatment of amyloidosis associated with amyloid diseses, particularly neurodegenerative disese and Type II diabetes, and more particularly Alzheimer's disese. In a specific example, aggregation of an amyloidogenic peptide, .beta.AP, is enhanced by the glycosylation reaction of .beta.AP to form AGE-.beta.AP as defined herein. Accordingly, the invention extends to a method for modulating the in vivo aggregation of amyloid polypeptides and associated amyloidosis by controlling the formation and presence of AGE-amyloid polypeptide. A corresponding diagnostic utility comprises the measurement of the course and extent of amyloidosis by a measurement of the presence and amount of AGEs and particularly, AGE-amyloid. An assay is included that may use the AGE-amyloid polypeptide of the present invention to identify disease states characterized by the presence of AGE-amyloid. Additionally, such an assay can be utilized to monitor therapy and thus adjust a dosage regimen for a given disese state characterized by the presence of AGE-amyloid.

IPC: H02J3/14
Filed: 1996-08-07
Abstract: A transfer switch system includes a controller which sends separately timed restart signals over a communications network to an addressable relay associated with each load in order to sequentially restart the loads following a transfer. When the loads are elevators, the controller sends a prepare to transfer signal to each elevator through the associated addressable relay directing the elevator to park at a floor with its doors open and delays making a discretionary transfer until all elevators send a reply message over the network that they are appropriately parked. A message from the utility directing a reduction in use of their power can be sent to the controller over the communications network through an additional remote station. The controller can then transfer to the alternate power source and/or send messages to selected loads to shut down.

Title: Gas-tight seal for surgical trocars
Inventor: HOSKIN WILLIAM JOHN
IPC: A61M39/06
Filed: 1995-03-23
Abstract: A gas-tight seal module (6) is in-corporated in a trocar system to form a gas-tight seal about an instrument (12) inserted into the cannula of the tro-car system. The module (6) incorpo-rates an apertured disc (30). The aper-ture in the disc can be stretched to ac-commodate a seal about an instrument (12) inserted into the cannula. The disc is carried by a flaccid membrane (20) which extends across the module (6). A pair of rigid washers (32 and 34) clamped on opposite sides of the disc (6) are constrained for movement be-tween two parallel spaced surfaces. The disc is thus freely moveable in its own plane to accommodate off-axis move-ment of the instrument so avoiding the breakage of the seal with the instru-ment which would otherwise occur if the disc did not have the same freedom of movement. The disc (30) also acts to clean the surface of the instrument when withdrawn so as to avoid contam-ination of a flap valve (10) upstream of the disc (30).
