Patent EP-1258260-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SUZUKI MINORU
IPC: A61M1/28
Filed: 2001-10-03
Abstract: The invention aims to provide a compact
peritoneal dialysis apparatus using a disposable
cassette integrally formed with a diaphragm and heating
portion, in which a flow path can be switched quietly
and a heating ability is high. By using a disposable
cassette (8) integrally formed with a diaphragm,
heating portion, and flow path switching portion, a
predetermined amount of dialysis fluid is heated to a
predetermined temperature with the heating portion.
Clamps (111 - 118) for opening/closing a flow path
switching portion are provided in order to form flow
paths through which the heated peritoneal dialysis
fluid is distributed into the peritoneal cavity of a
patient almost continuously and is sucked and drained
from the peritoneal cavity of the patient. The
invention also aims to provide a peritoneal dialysis
apparatus with which automatic dialysis treatment can
be performed by the patient himself and the operation
procedures of which are very clear and easy to
understand, so treatment can be performed with optimal
conditions, and even if a trouble should occur, it can
be coped with easily.

Abstract: A distance data coordinating section coordinates laser-measured
distance data with image-measured distance data as
described below. When the laser-measured distance data is
effective and long distance data, final distance data is'set
to the laser-measured distance data, when the image-measured
distance data is effective as well as the difference between
the image-measured distance data and the laser-measured
distance data is within a predetermined value at the time
the laser-measured distance data is intermediate distance
data, the final distance data is set to the average value of
the laser-measured distance data and the image-measured
distance data, and the final distance data is set to the
laser-measured distance data in the cases other than the
above-mentioned cases. When the laser-measured distance
data is short distance data, the final distance data is set
to the image-measured distance data, and when the laser-measured
distance data is very short distance data, the
final distance data is set to the laser-measured distance
data. Further, when the laser-measured distance data is
ineffective, the final distance data is set to the image-measured
distance data. With the above arrangement, it is
possible to promptly output the data of a forward three-dimensional
object by coordinating the distance value 
measured by a laser radar with the distance value measured
by an image in an optimum manner without executing a
complicated calculation, and the like.

Abstract: A vent valve for ase in controlling discharge of fuel vapor from a fuel tank.
The vent valve includes a housing for attachment to the fuel tank includes a wall
defining a cavity therein. The float is contained in the cavity of the housing and is
responsive to the level of liquid in the fuel tank. The level in the fuel tank rises, the
float rises within the housing. When the level of liquid in the fuel tank drops, the
float moves downwardly in the housing. A passage is provided in the housing which
communicates with an external portion of the tank. The vent valve includes at least
one vent positioned proximate to and communicating with the passage for providing
venting passage of vapor therethrough and to the passage. The vent valve includes a
vent assembly having a flexible diaphragm which is displaceably positioned
proximate to the passage to control the flow of vapor through the vent and through the
passage. The diaphragm is attached to the float making it responsive to the rise and
fall of liquid level in the tank. The diaphragm is generally concentrically peeled from
a position overlying at least the vent or progressively opening and closing the vent.

Abstract: A new embolic agent, bioabsorbable polymeric material (BPM) is incorporated to a Guglielmi detachable coil (GDC) to improve long-term anatomic results in the endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysma. The embolic agent, comprised at least in part of at least one biocompatible and bioabsorbable polymer and growth factors, is carried by hybrid bioactive coils and is used to accelerate histopathologic transformation of unroganized clot into fibrous connective tissue in experimental aneurysms. An endovascular cellular manipulation and inflammatory response are elicited from implantation in a vascular compartment or any intra-luminal location. Thrombogenicity of the biocompatible and bioabsorbable polymer is controlled by the composition of the polymer. The coil further is comprised at least in part of a growth factor or more particularly a vascular endothelial growth factor, a basic fibroblast growth factor or other growth factors. The biocompatible and bioabsorbable polymer is in the illustrated embodiment at least one polymer selected from the group consisting of polyglycolic acid, poly-glycolic/poly-L-lactic acid copolymers, polycaprolactive, polyhydroxybutyrate/hydroxyvalerate copolymers, poly-L-lactide, polydioxanone polycarbonates, and polyanhydrides.

Abstract: The invention relates a method for gas-shielded metal-arc welding during the re-strike during the welding process. It is object of the invention to provide a gas-shielded metal-arc welding method to permit as low an energy intake as possible in the short-circuit phase for the arc welding. According to the invention, this object is solved by a method, characterized in that at the beginning of a short-circuit, a control is activated and remains active for the duration of the short-circuit, which increases an energy intake (phase A) when a characteristic threshold value S 1 is fallen short of, and terminates the energy intake when a threshold value S 2 is reached, and than lowers the energy intake (phase B).

Abstract: The present invention describes new compositions of matter in the form of labeled nucleoside polyphosphates with four or more phosphates. In addition compositions of nucleoside polyphosphates with four or more phosphates that are substrates for nucleic acid polymerases with enhanced substrate properties and methods of using these nucleoside polyphosphates for nucleic acid detection, characterization and quantification are described. The compositions provided by this invention include nucleoside polyphosphate, dideoxynucleoside polyphosphate, or deoxynucleoside polyphosphate analogues which have colorimetric, chemiluminescent, or fluorescent moieties, mass tags or an electrochemical tags attached to the terminal-phosphate. When a nucleic acid polymerase uses this analogue as a substrate, an enzyme-activatable label would be present on the inorganic polyphosphate by-product of phosphoryl transfer. Removal of the polyphosphate product of phosphoryl transfer via phosphate or polyphosphate transferring enzyme leads to a detectable change in the label attached thereon. When the polymerase assay is performed in the presence of a phosphatase, there is provided a convenient method for real-time monitoring of DNA or RNA synthesis and detection of a target nucleic acid.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method and system for use
in security authentication in a network environment. The present invention
enables shared security information by networked devices. It also allows access
to networked devices on the basis of authentication surety. The system assigns
surety levels on the basis of the modes and methods of user authentication to the
network. Further, the present invention allows the gradual decay, of user
authentication and thus access to networked devices over time. Further still, the
present invention distinguishes between individual identities and personas within
the network environment. Surety levels associated with an authentication provide
a predetermined level of access to networked devices or device features. The
present invention provides improved security and diminishes the risk of
fraudulent access to a network via identity theft.
