Abstract: Improved water-soluble drugs which can inhibit carbonic anhydrase isozymes inside mammalian eyes are disclosed, for use in eyedrops by patients suffering from glaucoma or ocular hypertension. These compounds have a fluorinated (preferably perfluorinated) alkyl, aryl, or cycloalkyl group, coupled to an aromatic or heterocyclic ring with a pendant sulfonamide group.      These new fluoro-sulfonamide compounds have several advantages over previously known CAI's used in eyedrops, such as dorzolamide and brinzolamide. These advantages include: (1) higher solubility in water, allowing fluoro-sulfonamides to be dissolved at desired concentrations in neutral aqueous solution without requiring potentially irritating acidifying or suspending agents; (2) ability to reduce intraocular pressure by more than twice as much as dorzolamide (e. g., 10.3 to 12.5 mm Hg in normal rabbits, compared to 4.1 for dorzolamide; 13.0 to 15.7 in glaucomatous rabbits, compared to 6.7 for dorzolamide); and, (3) substantially longer duration of action. Any of those results would be deemed important, in glaucoma treatments the fact that all three results were achieved simultaneously indicates that these new fluoro-sulfonamide drugs offer major improvements over the prior art.

Title: A self-contained, automatic mechanically opening and closing steam head with built-in thermostat
Inventor: ALTMAN MITCHELL
IPC: G05D23/02
Filed: 2002-01-04
Abstract: A self-contained thermo-mechanically self-opening steam head that is normally generally flush with a supporting steam room wall when not in use so as not to pose a safety hazard. The steam head has a mechanical thermostat that automatically responds to the presence of heat as from steam to move a deflector plate, which normally generally blocks a steam outlet from the head, to an open position. That open position is spaced from but closely in front of the steam outlet. This allows steam to flow out of the outlet, but the deflector plate diverts the outward steam flow to a direction generally along the supporting wall. When the steam is shut off, the thermostat cools and thereby causes the deflector plate to return to its closed, blocking position. There is no electrical wiring or connection which could pose a major safety hazard in the presence of water.
