Abstract: An apparatus for treating an anal or urinary incontinent patient comprises a constriction device applied on the patient's large intestine or urethra, and an electrically powered operation device, which is integrated with the constriction device and adapted to operate the latter to constrict the large intestine or urethra to close the intestinal or urethral lumen and to release the large intestine or urethra to open the intestinal or urethral lumen. An electric power supply is subcutaneously implanted in the patient remote from the constriction device and an insulated electric wire connects the power supply and the electrically powered operation device. The electric wire is resilient and extends helically between the electric power supply and the electrically powered operation device. As a result, the resilient helically extending electric wire is capable of addressing the movements from the large intestine or urethra, because it may easily be temporarily extended without risking breakage.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif vaso-occlusif comprenant une microbobine adoptant une configuration secondaire d'état d'énergie minimal comprenant une pluralité de segments incurvés, chacun définissant un axe différent. Le dispositif, dans sa configuration d'état d'énergie minimal, définit de multiples axes. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, la configuration secondaire comprend une pluralité de boucles fermées interconnectées définissant une pluralité d'axes différents. Dans un second mode de réalisation, la configuration secondaire définit une structure de type forme d'onde comprenant un réseau de boucles ouvertes en alternance latérale définissant une pluralité d'axes séparés. Dans un troisième mode de réalisation, la configuration secondaire forme une série de boucles fermées tangentielles, la structure entière soustendant un premier angle d'arc et chaque paire adjacente de boucles définissant un second angle d'arc. Dans un quatrième mode de réalisation, la configuration secondaire forme une spirale logarithmique. Dans tous les modes de réalisation, le dispositif, dans sa configuration secondaire, présente une dimension sensiblement plus importante que la dimension la plus large du site vasculaire (p.ex. anévrisme) dans lequel il est déployé. Ainsi, la limitation du dispositif au sein d'un anévrisme lui fait adopter une configuration tridimensionnelle avec un état d'énergie supérieur à l'état d'énergie minimal. Du fait que la configuration à l'état d'énergie minimal du dispositif est plus importante (dans au moins une dimension) que l'anévrisme, le dispositif déployé est contraint de par son contact avec les parois de l'anévrisme de retourner à sa configuration à l'état d'énergie minimal. Le contact du dispositif avec la paroi de l'anévrisme réduit le déplacement ou le retournement causé par l'écoulement sanguin. Par ailleurs, la configuration secondaire n'entraîne pas 'd'empilement', ce qui réduit le compactage.

Abstract: The method is for modifying the data in a system for transactions by card, where the card is with a memory, and a reader can read the card when it is in a determined position with respect to the reader. The memory is read-only, erasable and re-writable, and comprises two counter stages (A,B) for registering the data values with respect to transactions effected by the card. Each transaction involves the modifications of the data value, which is a monotonic function of time.  At each transaction, the writing of the data value effects the writing of new data value (Y) in the counter stage (B), and the write operation effects the erasing of old data value (X) registered in the counter stage (A). At the end of the write operation which is correctly effected, the counter stage (B) contains the new data value while the counter stage (A) contains the value zero. The data value registered in one of the counter stages (A,B) is incremented at each write operation. The transaction is not validated if the write operation is not effected correctly because of pulling out the card in the course of the transaction, when none of the two stages registers a value equal to zero. The counter is restored by a rewrite operation when the card is pulled out during the write phase. If the counter stage (B) contains an incorrect value (Y') comprised between the old data value and the new data value, the counter is restored by a rewrite operation followed by a write operation consistent with the writing of the new data value in the counter stage (A) and the erasing the incorrect value in the counter stage (B). If the incorrect data value (Y') is below the old value (X), the counter is restored by a rewrite operation of the old data value in the counter stage (A) and erasing the incorrect data value, followed by a write operation of the new data value (Y) in the counter stage (B) and erasing the old data value in the counter stage (A). The counter is restored by a rewrite operation when the pulling-out takes place between the writing phase and the erasing phase. When the pulling-out takes place during the erasing phase and an incorrect data value (X') is registered in the counter stage (A), the counter is restored by a rewrite operation of the new data value (Y) in the counter stage (B) and erasing the incorrect data value. A system (claimed) for transactions with card implements the method (claimed). The card with memory is a card operated without contact.

Abstract: The coating of dental substrates, such as the stumps of a working model or implants including ceramics, e.g. alumina, by means of electrophoresis results, especially because of the production of gas, in products unfit for use. It is therefore the aim of the invention to provide a coating method that allows for a high-quality coating of dental substrates in the shortest time possible, irrespective of the material constitution of the substrate. According to the inventive method, the substrate (stump 2 ) is fixated in an insulating mass ( 3 ) in a vertical holder ( 1 ). The substrate is coated with a separating agent and a hygroscopic layer and a further layer is applied thereon by shortly dipping the stump into the slip ( 6 ). The current used for electrophoresis is supplied via the layer ( 7 ) so formed. The inventive method, when used for non-conducting substrates, requires no silver enamel or the like. The method can also be used for conducting substrates, e.g. titanium implants, as the current flows only via the layer ( 7 ).
