Abstract: This invention provides methods for detecting cancers and for evaluating the prognosis of cancer patients. In particular, the methods of this invention utilize YKL-40 as a marker for the presence or absence of a cancer and for the prognosis (e.g. likelihood of recurrence) of a cancer. Elevated levels of YKL-40 are indicative of the presence of a cancer in undiagnosed subjects and indicate likely recurrence of the cancer in subjects diagnosed as having a cancer.

Abstract: In a method of speech processing digital signals representative of the speech are provided for speech encoding, the digital signals including a first set of coefficients. A second set of coefficients is calculated for speech recognition. The first set of coefficients is used in the calculation of the second set of coefficients. A corresponding apparatus comprises speech encoding means (2; 41) for providing digital signals representative of the speech and including a first set of coefficients, and speech recognition means (3; 42) in which a second set of coefficients is calculated. The speech recognition means is adapted to use the first set of coefficients in the calculation of the second set of coefficients. In this way the memory requirement for a device including speech encoding as well as speech recognition is reduced considerably.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un article absorbant que l'utilisatrice porte sous la ceinture.'article comprend une feuille de base souple, imperméable au liquide qui fait face vers l'extérieur par rapport au corps de l'utilisatrice ; une feuille supérieure perméable au liquide faisant face au corps de l'utilisatrice et une âme absorbante placée entre la feuille de base et la feuille supérieure. La feuille supérieure est de préférence extensible et comporte une pluralité de fentes ou découpes qui s'étendent dans le matériau de la feuille supérieure et qui s'agrandissent de façon à former une pluralité d'orifices dans la feuille supérieure lorsque celle-ci est soumise à des forces de traction en utilisation. Les orifices permettent à des exsudats biologiques solides et semi-solides de traverser la feuille supérieure et de passer dans l'âme absorbante. Lorsque l'utilisatrice retire la serviette hygiénique, les forces de traction exercées dans la feuille supérieure se relâchent, ce qui provoque la fermeture des orifices de la feuille supérieure et la dissimulation des exsudats biologiques qui ont traversé la feuille supérieure.

Inventor: STEMKE LOTHAR
IPC: B29C43/36
Filed: 1999-10-27
Abstract: The invention relates to compression injection plastic molding using a repository space, for the temporary storage of the molding material melt to prevent structural faults and reduce workpiece costs. The molten molding material is first fed into the repository space, whose volume corresponds to the volume of the mold cavity. When the injection process starts, the bottom of the piston aligns with the edge of the repository space and with the wall of the mold cavity so that a small amount of molding material melt reaches the mold cavity directly. The piston then slides into the cylinder. The repository space, which continuously becomes larger, is filled with a melted material at almost no pressure. The melt is conveyed into the plastic core until tho supply of the melted molding material is ended. The piston is then retracted, and the mold cavity is thus completely filled with molding material.

Title: A delivery catheter within the blood vessel.
Inventor: WHITE GEOFFREY H
IPC: A61F2/06
Filed: 2000-04-17
Abstract: A system for delivering and implanting a radially expandable endoluminal prosthesis within a body lumen (e.g., blood vessel). The system comprises a) an introducer/dilator assembly, and b) a delivery catheter/loader assembly. The introducer/dilator assembly comprises an elongate tubular introducer sheath which may be provided with a valving assembly mounted on the proximal end thereof. Such valving assembly may incorporate i) a hemostatic valve, ii) a first sealing valve and iii) a second sealing valve, positioned in series, to prevent leakage of body fluid out of the proximal end of the introducer and to permit two or more elongate members (e.g., catheters, guidewires) having differing outer diameters to be inserted through the introducer without leakage of body fluid therefrom. A dilator, which has regionalized differences in stiffness, is initially deployable within the lumen of the introducer to facilitate advancement of the introducer to its desired location within the body. Thereafter, the dilator may be removed from the introducer sheath and the delivery catheter/loader assembly may be attached to the introducer, such that the delivery catheter having the prosthesis mounted thereon may advanced through the introducer, to a desired location within the body. Thereafter, the radial expandable endoluminal prosthesis mounted on the delivery catheter is deployed and implanted by an expansion device (e.g., balloon) formed on the delivery catheter. The delivery catheter may incorporate one or more outflow apertures at specific location(s) to facilitate injection of radiographic contrast medium in a manner which will check for leakage around the endoluminal prosthesis, after the endoluminal prosthesis has been radially expanded and implanted.

Title: Communications system
Inventor: SLATER IAIN JAMES
IPC: H04J3/00
Filed: 2001-05-30
Abstract: In a synchronous digital communications system a network of SDH (or SONET) equipments (SE) are arranged to exchange synchronisation signals via ports on the SEs, each port being allocated a source identifier (SID). These SIDs are used to identify the source of each synchronisation signal input at a particular SE. When the SE selects a synchronisation signal to transmit out of its ports, the SID associated with that selected signal is compared with the SID of each port. If a match is found the synchronisation status message (SSM) associated with the synchronisation signal sent out at that port is set to "Do Not Use" (DNU) to warn the destination SE that the synchronisation signal has been looped back. Each SE is allocated a unique equipment identifier. The SID of each port is set to the unique SE identifier of the SE to which it is directly connected. <IMAGE>

Title: Method for correcting metadata affecting the playback loudness and dynamic range of audio information
Inventor: SMITHERS MICHAEL JOHN
IPC: G10L11/00
Filed: 2007-04-24
Abstract: A coded signal conveys encoded audio information and metadata that may be used to control the loudness and dynamic range of the audio information during its playback. If the values for these metadata parameters are set incorrectly, annoying fluctuations in loudness during playback can result. The present invention overcomes this problem by detecting incorrect metadata parameter values in the signal and replacing the incorrect values with corrected values.
