Filed: 1999-08-04
Granted: 2006-10-17
Abstract: Disclosed is an oral sustained-release preparation which contains at least one active ingredient selected from the group consisting of fasudil hydrochloride and a hydrate thereof, the preparation comprising at least one sustained-release coated particle comprising a core having a surface and a coating formed on the surface of the core, wherein the core contains the active ingredient and the coating comprises a coating base material and a specific insoluble auxiliary material, and wherein the preparation exhibits, with respect to the active ingredient, a specific dissolution rate, as measured by the dissolution test. By using the oral sustained-release preparation of the present invention, it becomes possible to surely control the release of fasudil hydrochloride from the preparation, so that the effect of the active ingredient is maintained for a long period of time. Therefore, the burden of the patient who has to take the preparation can be decreased and the compliance with :respect to the administration of the preparation can be improved. Also disclosed is a method for evaluating an oral sustained-release preparation containing the active ingredient, wherein the evaluation is conducted with respect to the sustained-release ability of the active ingredient.
Patent CA-2335008-C (CA)
Title: Method and apparatus for performing packet loss or frame erasure concealment
Inventor: KAPILOW DAVID A
IPC: G10L21/02
Filed: 2000-04-19
Granted: 2009-02-03
Abstract: The invention concerns a method and apparatus for performing packet loss or Frame Erasure Concealment (FEC) for a speech coder that does not have a built-in or standard FEC process. A receiver with a decoder receives encoded frames of compressed speech information transmitted from an encoder. A lost frame detector at the receiver determines if an encoded frame has been lost or corrupted in transmission, or erased. If the encoded frame is not erased, the encoded frame is decoded by a decoder and a temporary memory is updated with the decoder's output. A predetermined delay period is applied and the audio frame is then output. If the lost frame detector determines that the encoded frame is erased, a FEC module applies a frame concealment process to the signal. The FEC processing produces natural sounding synthetic speech for the erased frames.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne des procédés de prévention ou de traitement d'un trouble chez un sujet ayant une réponse inflammatoire à une maladie ou à un syndrome, ladite réponse inflammatoire étant induite par la substance P endogène. Ces procédés comprennent l'administration au sujet d'une quantité efficace d'un point de vue pharmaceutique d'anticorps anti-substance P, ou de fragments d'anticorps anti-substance P, tels que les fragments F(ab)¿2?, ce qui permet d'inhiber l'activité de la substance P endogène. L'inhibition de l'activité de la substance P endogène chez le sujet provoque la réduction des taux de cytokines produites par les lymphocytes T du sujet, l'altération des signaux qui commandent la réponse inflammatoire à l'infection, ainsi que la réduction de l'inflammation induite par la cytokine. Le virus syncytal respiratoire est un exemple d'agent responsable d'une infection provoquant fréquemment un trouble dû à une réaction inflammatoire à une infection induite par la substance P endogène. En général, on administre à un mammifère une dose d'environ 0,001 mg à environ 10 g d'anticorps anti-substance P, ou de fragments d'anticorps anti-substance P, par kilogramme de poids corporel et par jour, la dose préférée étant comprise entre environ 1 mg et environ 1000 mg d'anticorps anti-substance P, ou de fragments d'anticorps anti-substance P, par kilogramme de poids corporel et par jour.

Abstract: A method is described for the production of an animal (offspring) by the process of nuclear transfer. The animal may be produced using donor genetic material in cells taken directly from any stage of an animal, such as an embryo, foetus or adult or from cell cultures established from material from any stage of an animal, such as embryonic, foetal or adult material. The process may be used to introduce genetic modifications into the resultant offspring by genetic manipulation and selection of the cells to act as nuclear donors prior to embryo reconstruction. The present invention provides a method of reconstituting an animal embryo, the process comprising transferring a nucleus into a first oocyte followed by removing and transferring said nucleus from said oocyte to a further oocyte or to an enucleated fertilised zygote.

Title: Transmission method with frequency and time spread at transmitter level
Inventor: HACH RAINER
IPC: H04B1/69
Filed: 2000-08-10
Granted: 2008-12-09
Abstract: The invention relates to a transmission method for the broadband, wireless or wire information transmission via a channel using spreading methods. Said channel is subject to perturbations and multipath propagation. The aim of the invention is to transmit messages via channels that are disturbed by multipath propagation. The aim of the invention therefor is to provide a multiple access method which allows to transmit signals with a high symbol rate and which can react to changes in the data amount and to requirements with regard to transmission speed and bit error rate in a flexible manner with maximum spectral efficiency, whereby said requirements vary according to the users. The invention also relates to a method for transmitting information symbols with a certain symbol rate via a channel with a certain bandwidth, whereby the information symbols are subjected to frequency spreading and time spreading at transmitter level and a corresponding despreading at receiver level. The respective spreadings and thus the system gain can be adaptively matched to the required transmission quality and the channel characteristics.

Title: Method of evaluating logs to predict properties of lumber or veneer produced from the logs
Inventor: FLOYD STANLEY L
IPC: B07C5/14
Filed: 2002-10-07
Granted: 2010-03-16
Abstract: A method is disclosed for evaluating logs to predict structural properties and/or warp tendency of lumber or veneer that might be produced from a given log. The method can be used in a forest stand, sorting yard or merchandiser, on-line in a sawmill, or at other locations along the route from forest to mill. It enables decisions whether a log should be directed to a sawmill for lumber manufacture or for other applications such as timbers, veneer, or pulp chips. Log taper has been found to correlate with both stiffness and warp propensity of lumber cut from a given log. A high amount of taper leads to warped lumber and low stiffness lumber or veneer. The correlation with taper is highest if it is measured over the full stem length of the harvested log, before it is bucked to sawmill size or veneer blocks. Other geometric features of the log, such as sweep or cross section irregularity, can be combined with taper in a multivariate regression equation to increase accuracy of prediction. This can readily be accomplished in a conventional scanner used in a sort yard or sawmill.
