The present invention extends to a blood control catheter valve for use in a catheter adapter. The blood control catheter value employs an actuator for bypassing a septum to open the blood control catheter valve. The actuator includes flexible retention arms positioned on one end which retract into the body of the actuator while the end of the actuator passes through the septum, and then expand outwardly to maintain the actuator positioned within the septum. This design facilitates the manufacturing of catheter adapters (as well as blood control catheter valves and other components that attach to the catheter adapter) because the design can reduce the tolerance requirements of such components. Further, the design provides a reliable blood control catheter valve that does not require the catheter adapter to be increased in size to accommodate the valve.

The present invention relates to methods for identifying compounds that can reduce immune rejection, for example, transplant- or autoimmune disorder-related immune rejection. The present invention is based, in part, on the discovery, demonstrated herein, that immune rejection can be monitored by determining the amount of particular members of the Jak/Stat signal transduction pathway present within an affected tissue. The present invention is further based, in part, on the discovery, demonstrated herein, that immune rejection can be reduced and tolerance can be induced by modulating the amount of these particular members of the Jak/Stat signal transduction pathway present, expressed or active within an affected tissue. In particular, the results demonstrate that immune rejection can be monitored by determining the amount of mRNA or protein of Stat1, Stat3, Stat4, Stat6, SOCS1, or SOCS3 present, e.g., in an affected tissue.

The invention discloses a non-contact automatic blood oxygen saturation degree measurement system and measurement method. Measurement of a blood oxygen saturation degree is carried out through video shooting. The measurement system comprises a video collection module, a primary color component separation module, an ROI extraction module, a time-varying signal generation module, a filtering and noise reduction module and a signal calibration and analysis module. The measurement method comprises the steps: collecting a color video recording information of the wrist portion of a human body, extracting a red component image of the color video, extracting a region which includes the artery as ROI images, extracting a mean value of all pixels of each frame of ROI image as a feature value of the frame of ROI image, generating a time-amplitude waveform, conducting filtering and noise reduction on a waveform signal, conducting normalization and calibration on the filtered signal, then finding wave crests and wave troughs of the signal in a waveform period, obtaining a specific value of a wave crest value and a wave trough value, and estimating the blood oxygen saturation degree (SpO2) through the specific value. A non-contact remote physiological signal detection method is adopted, motion artifact impact in the video recording is overcome, measurement precision is high, and multiple people can be measured simultaneously.

The second element extends through the conical bore for movement within the conical bore, and a threaded end structured and arranged to mate with the threaded portion of the first element. The instant abstract is neither intended to define the invention disclosed in this specification nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.

The invention discloses an elevator guide rail damping device. The elevator guide rail damping device comprises a wall connecting frame, a guide rail support connecting cover and an elastic damping cushion installed in a box structure formed between the wall connecting frame and the guide rail support connecting cover. The guide rail support connecting cover and the wall connecting frame are screwed by a pair of first bolts and a pair of second bolts to be fixed to pre-buried nuts in the elastic damping cushion respectively, and the first bolts are perpendicular to the second bolts. A third bolt penetrates through the guide rail support connecting cover, the elastic damping cushion and the wall connecting frame and is screwed to the nut fixed to the wall connecting frame, and the head of the third bolt is provided with an elastic damping washer. The elevator guide rail damping device can absorb vibration of guide rails of an elevator in an all-around mode, and the damping effect is good. When the elastic damping cushion is aged and deform and a clearance exists between the contact face of the elastic damping cushion and the contact face of the box structure, the elastic damping washer can deform to a certain degree to fill the clearance, the serious reducing of the damping effect is avoided, the damping effect of the damping device is reliably guaranteed, and the service life of the damping device is prolonged.

The invention provides a simplified holding structure for a tool for a machine tool that makes accurate tool holding possible. The tool shank is inserted through a through hole of a sleeve and into a tool shank insertion hole. The sleeve insertion part is inserted into a large-diameter part and fixed coaxially to the spindle with bolts or the like, so as to axially compress at least one annular elastic member provided on the large-diameter part. A first shank-supporting portion is provide inside the tool shank insertion hole and a second shank-supporting portion is provided on the sleeve through hole. A front end part of the insertion part is semicircular or trapezoidal in axial cross-section. The tool shank insertion hole, the sleeve through hole and the annular elastic member have cross-sections in directions perpendicular to the axis of the tool shank shaped that match the tool shank.
