Provided are uses of erythropoietin, or a derivative or functional analogue thereof, for the production of a medicament for the preventive or curative treatment of patients suffering from, or at risk of suffering from, cardiac failure.

A reference voltage supply apparatus and a driving method thereof in a ferroelectric memory device provide a reference voltage stabilized against the imprint effect thus maintaining reading reliability of the device. In the reference voltage supply apparatus (e.g., using a non-switching capacitance of a ferroelectric capacitor), a reference cell is constructed of a ferroelectric capacitor and an access switch, and provides a reference voltage to read data from a memory cell. In an active mode, the reference cell stores data of a first logic state (e.g., corresponding to the non-switching capacitance of the ferroelectric capacitor), in the reference cell, and then supplies, as a reference voltage, the voltage corresponding to the data of the first logic state to a bit line; and in a stand-by mode, a reference voltage controller stores (writes) data of a second logic state (opposite to the first logic state), into the reference cell.

Additive for a drilling fluid to block drilling-induced or pre-existing rock fractures comprising polymeric granules with a diameter distribution peak between 1000 and 200 microns and an average resiliency of at least 10% rebound after compression by a load of 200 N and uses thereof.

The invention discloses an isolated antibody that selectively binds to the C-terminal part of Abeta and is humanized or fully human. The antibody of the invention is capable of preventing oligomerization of Abeta. Furthermore, a method of diagnosis comprising the steps of: (i) Labelling an antibody; (ii) Administering an effective dose of said antibody intranasally or systemically to a subject; and (iii) Detecting the concentration and / or presence of the labelled antibody in body parts of the subject is disclosed.
