Abstract: A rotary press includes a printing unit (4a-4d), folding machine (5), dancer roller (30), motor (48), tension detection unit (22), and control unit (50). The printing unit prints on a web (6) supplied from a winding roll. The folding machine folds the printed web supplied from the printing unit. The dancer roller (30) retreats from and advances to a web traveling path between the printing unit and the folding machine, during printing and plate mounting, respectively, to come into contact with the web. The motor (61) selectively, rotatably drives the winding roll in a reel-out direction and a winding direction. The tension detection unit detects a tension of the web between the winding roll (10) and the printing unit (4a). The control unit controls the motor on the basis of a detection result of the tension detection unit during plate mounting. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Mist of titanium element-containing liquid particles is adhered to the surface of a glass substrate having a surface compressive stress of at most 10 MPa so as to coat the surface of the glass substrate with the liquid. Next, the liquid-coated surface is heated up to a maximum temperature of from 550 to 700° C. and then cooled under a specific condition, thereby making the resulting glass sheet have a surface compressive stress of from 20 to 250 MPa. The process gives a glass sheet coated with a titanium oxide thin film having a photocatalytic function. The resulting titanium oxide thin filmhad good adhesiveness andabrasion resistance. Since its surface has a micro-roughness, the glass sheet has neither interference color nor interference fringes and has good transparency.

Abstract: Described herein are methods for treating cancer and other disease conditions in individuals who have either developed a resistance to conventional tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy or who are non-responsive  ab initio  to conventional TKI therapy. In various embodiments, the methods include administering to a patient a resistance-surmounting quantity of a TKI on a weekly or semi-weekly basis. Alternate embodiments of the present invention include a diagnostic method for assessing an individual's probability of being resistant to TKI therapy, based upon an expression level of epithelial membrane protein-1 (EMP-1); one of the genes believed to be responsible for TKI resistance. The methods of the present invention may be particularly useful in the treatment of lung, breast, prostate, ovarian, brain and colon cancers. The methods of the present invention may be effective in blocking the HER-2 kinase domain either in addition to or in lieu of blocking the EGFR kinase domain.

Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed for detecting a wireless energy receiving device subcutaneously implanted in a patient's body to enable accurate positioning of a wireless energy transmission device outside the patient's body relative to the energy receiving device. Also disclosed is a method for detecting the wireless energy receiving device whereby an energy transmission device can be positioned to efficiently transmit wireless energy to the implanted energy receiving device. The apparatus includes a magnetic device that is subcutaneously implanted in the patient adjacent to the energy receiving device to emit a local magnetic field through the patient's skin adjacent to the energy receiving device. A magnetic detector movable externally along the patient's body is capable of detecting the local magnetic field emitted by the magnetic device. This allows the energy transmission device to be located for the efficient transmission of wireless energy to the implanted energy receiving device. Alternatively, the apparatus can include a magnetic detector subcutaneously implanted in the patient at the energy receiving device and an exterior magnetic device movable along the patient's skin to emit a magnetic field that is detected by the implanted magnetic detector. Preferably, the magnetic detector includes a semiconductor circuit that is comprised of at least one Hall element. The magnetic device may be a solenoid or a permanent magnet. The energy receiving device can be used to control a restriction device implant designed for treating reflux disease, urinary incontinence, impotence, anal incontinence or obesity.

Abstract: A back brace for supporting a lower back region of a wearer that includes a strapping system that supports a lumbar support panel at the lower back region of the wearer. The lumbar support panel includes an inner surface adjacent to the wearer's back defining a pair of raised support regions that have convexly curved outer surfaces and medial edges spaced apart from each other. Advantageously, the spacing between the medial edges provides clearance for the lower spine of the wearer to prevent discomfort. In addition, the convexly curved medial edges improve the support panel's fit to the contours of the wearer's back and avoid pressure points on the wearer's erector spinae musculature through a relatively even pressure distribution on the musculature. The lumbar support panel also may include a plurality of ventilation holes and may be constructed of "skin-friendly" materials that wick moisture away and allow air in for additional comfort.

Abstract: The use of an alternating current (ac) source to power logic circuitry can support satisfactory device performance for a variety of applications, while enhancing long-term stability of the circuitry. For example, when organic thin film transistor (OTFT)-based logic circuitry is powered by an ac power source, the logic circuitry exhibits stable performance characteristics over an extended period of operation. Enhanced stability may permit the use of OTFT logic circuitry to form a variety of circuit devices, including inverters, oscillators, logic gates, registers and the like. Such circuit devices may find application in a variety of applications, including integrated circuits, printed circuit boards, flat panel displays, smart cards, cell phones, and RFID tags. In some applications, the ac-powered logic circuitry may eliminate the need for ac-dc rectification components, thereby reducing the manufacturing time, expense, cost, complexity, and size of the component carrying the circuitry.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a mattress overlay being an inflatable body support formed from a pair of plastic sheets joined together to form a non-inflatable periphery. The non-inflatable periphery defines an air pressurizable chamber therebetween. The chamber provides an air cushion for supporting a person positioned thereatop that dissipates at least pressure to decrease the onset of pressure sores and ulcers. The periphery has a distal end, a proximal end, a first side and a second side. The improvement of the present invention relates to the corner strap system. There is at least one non-inflatable corner strap system that extends from at least one end of the periphery. A center section, at least two side sections positioned on opposite sides of the center section, and a hold down section having at least two elbow-shaped slits or perforations positioned between the center section and each side section form the first non-inflatable corner strap system. Each perforation and slit defines a hold down. Each hold down on each side of the center section is a distinct distance from the center section. The various combinations of hold downs can be used to secure the mattress overlay onto various sized and styles of mattresses. <IMAGE>
