Inventor: MOOIJAART SIMON PIETER
IPC: G01N33/68
Filed: 2005-05-24
Abstract: The current invention exploits the presence of a newly established functional correlation between plasma levels of apolipoprotein E (apoE) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk and/or CVD related mortality. The association of apoE plasma levels closely correlates with cardiovascular mortality, independent of  APOE  ε2/ε3/ε4 genotype and even when the model is adjusted for other CVD risk factors. The invention is first aimed at diagnostic methods for the determination of the risk of a subject for developing CVD and mortality related to CVD. The invention is also aimed at therapeutic intervention of high plasma levels of apoE. The invention achieves prevention of CVD risk by reducing the plasma levels of apoE, for which several embodiments, pharmaceutical and nutraceutical compositions with one or more active compounds, are disclosed.

Abstract: Methods and devices are provided to aid in the control of a channel used in communicating data packets between a first communication device and a communication device with which the first communication device is communicating. For an open session occurring on the channel, the channel can be in an active state or a dormant state. Controlling when the channel is brought down to the dormant state can help improve operating conditions such as battery life of a communication device. Time-out parameters associated with the communication device, each open session and packets being sent and received on the channel are used in determining when the channel is brought up to the active state or brought down to the dormant state.

Abstract: The method involves measuring the current and estimating a periodic component of the current. The estimation is aided by an observing device (2) with a mathematical model (30) of the direct current motor (6). A determination is made for the change portion from a difference from the estimated periodic component and the measured current. By evaluating a difference signal from the estimated periodic component and the measured current an engine angle of rotation is determined. A feedback of a difference from an estimated and a measured parameter in the model of the direct current motor is accomplished and weighted. An independent claim is included for an AC component determining apparatus.

Abstract: The reliability of a reception wave from a transducer is checked and when the reliability is determined to be insufficient, a method different from the current method is selected. The reliability is judged by calculating a value serving as an index of the reliability of the reception wave and checking whether the value is smaller than a predetermined set value. When the value is smaller than the set value, the reliability is judged to be insufficient. The values serving as an index of the reliability of the reception wave may be the amplitude of the reception wave, the ratio of the amplitude of the reception wave against a predetermined measurable amplitude value, the ratio of the power spectrum against a predetermined power value, the ratio of transmission wave amplitude against the maximum amplitude of the reception wave, the ratio of the power spectrum of the transmission frequency included in the reception wave and obtained by Fourier transform of the reception wave against a predetermined power value, and the like.

Abstract: L'invention porte: sur un système, un procédé, et un support d'enregistrement lisible par ordinateur, utilisables pour un modèle de sécurité et un mode d'application dans le sous-système graphique d'un dispositif informatique; sur une procédure uniforme, directe et souple de création d'objets contenant leur propre politique de sécurité et se plaçant dans des domaines protégés lorsqu'ils sont instanciés en fonction de leurs besoins particuliers de sécurité; et sur une limite de processus servant de sécurité primaire ou de limite de protection lors de l'application du modèle de sécurité. Ledit modèle de sécurité tire profit du fait que la plupart des modèles d'objets permettent aux objets d'avoir des interfaces. Les interfaces d'un objet servent à déterminer ceux des objets appelants capables d'accéder. Il existe donc une possibilité de mise en correspondance des capacités de l'objet avec les interfaces. Un objet détermine ce à quoi un objet appelant est habilité, et quelle connaissance l'objet appelants a de l'interface de l'objet. L'enquête de l'appelant détermine également ceux des autres aspects de l'objet pour lesquels l'appelant est habilité. Le procédé de l'invention consiste à faire recevoir par l'interface d'un objet cible un appel d'un objet extérieur conscient de l'existence de l'interface, et c'est l'objet ciblé qui détermine si l'objet extérieur a accès à d'autres interfaces de l'objet cible sur la base du premier appel. L'accès est donné aux autres interfaces sur la base de cette détermination.
