InactiveUS20050085734A1Improve severityWorsen conditionElectrotherapyElectromyographyDiseasePatients symptoms
A device and method to detect and manage heart failure patient symptoms is provided. Respiration and / or cardiac parameters may be sensed or observed to determine the status of a patient's condition. These symptoms may be classified for appropriate patient disease management. A patient's activity level may be monitored in conjunction with respiration and / or cardiac parameters to provide additional patient status information. These symptoms may be classified for appropriate patient disease management. Pulmonary edema is one condition that may be determined to exist when a respiration parameter is out of range for a given sensed activity level. If edema is determined to be present, the device may be configured to respond to treat the edema.

Method and system for accommodating deterioration characteristics of machines
InactiveUS20080234994A1Maximize desirable operational conditionMinimize undesirable operational conditionGeometric CADDesign optimisation/simulationMachine controlPredictive modelling
A method for multi-objective deterioration accommodation using predictive modeling is disclosed. The method uses a simulated machine that simulates a deteriorated actual machine, and a simulated controller that simulates an actual controller. A multi-objective process is performed, based on specified control settings for the simulated controller and specified operational scenarios for the simulated machine controlled by the simulated controller, to generate a Pareto frontier-based solution space relating performance of the simulated machine to settings of the simulated controller, including adjustment to the operational scenarios to represent a deteriorated condition of the simulated machine. Control settings of the actual controller are adjusted, represented by the simulated controller, for controlling the actual machine, represented by the simulated machine, in response to a deteriorated condition of the actual machine, based on the Pareto frontier-based solution space, to maximize desirable operational conditions and minimize undesirable operational conditions while operating the actual machine in a region of the solution space defined by the Pareto frontier.

A balloon for use in compressing cancellous bone and marrow (also known as medullary bone or trabecular bone) against the inner cortex of bones whether the bones are fractured or not. The balloon comprises an inflatable, non-expandable balloon body for insertion into said bone. The body has a shape and size to compress at least a portion of the cancellous bone to form a cavity in the cancellous bone and to restore the original position of the outer cortical bone, if fractured or collapsed. The balloon is prevented from applying excessive pressure to the outer cortical bone. The wall or walls of the balloon are such that proper inflation the balloon body is achieved to provide for optimum compression of all the bone marrow. The balloon is able to be folded so that it can be inserted quickly into a bone. The balloon can be made to have a suction catheter. It can also be coated with therapeutic substances. The main purpose of the balloon is the forming or enlarging of a cavity or passage in a bone, especially in, but not limited to, vertebral bodies. Another important purpose is to deliver therapeutic substances to bone in an improved way.

Low nitrate vegetable and its cultivation system and method
InactiveUS20080115245A1Increase crop yieldImprove production yieldAgriculture gas emission reductionCultivating equipmentsWildlifeAdditive ingredient
The present invention uses specific cultivation system and method to produce vegetables with a nitrate nitrogen (NO3—N) concentration below 450 ppm (NO3—N (mg / kg)≦450 ppm). An advanced water cultivation system and a scheduled nutrient injection and removal method are used to achieve the specification of a nitrate nitrogen concentration less than 450 ppm. The nutrient supply and recycle system sets a time period prior to harvest to recycle nutrients and consume the nitrate nitrogen of the vegetables by supplying fresh water only, so that nitrate nitrogen remained in the vegetables can be consumed completely by the natural process of photosynthesis and the nitrate nitrogen concentration of these vegetables is much below those produced by traditional farming, water cultivation, organic cultivation or wildlife or those cannot achieve a low nitrate nitrogen under natural conditions. The invention is definitely a breakthrough on the quantitative control of harmful ingredients.

Methods and compositions for identifying morphogen analogs
InactiveUS7306903B1Improve bindingGood for healthOrganic active ingredientsNervous disorderType X collagenMorphogen
Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for identifying morphogen analogs. The preferred methods and compositions relate to the discovery that morphogen upregulation of the mouse type X collagen promoter activity is mediated by a MEF-2 like sequence and requires an adjacent AP-1 sequence. Certain methods rest on the use of test cells comprising DNA defining a morphogen-responsive transcription activating element operatively associated with a reporter gene. Other methods rest on the use of DNAs for measuring morphogen-inducible DNA-binding. In certain preferred embodiments, the methods and DNAs involve an osteogenic protein 1 (OP-1) responsive transcription activating element. Substances that mediate interaction with and / or activate the OP-1 responsive transcription activating element are considered herein likely to be useful for reproducing in vivo effects of morphogens such as OP-1.
