摘要:
An interactive medical test selector for use by a patient is about the size of a book and has a screen for displaying questions to a patient, a limited number of keys by which the patient can enter answers, and a memory device for storing the patient's answers. The test selector is battery-powered for portability and uses a low-power liquid crystal display or the like to display instructions and medical questions to the patient. Only four keys are seen or used by the patient for answering the questions: YES, NO, NOT SURE, and NEXT QUESTION. Additional control keys used by the medical staff are hidden from the patient. The device is controlled by a pre-programmed microcomputer on a chip, and a ROM-based, removeable and replaceable control program which not only collects, but also analyzes the patient's answers and makes appropriate recommendations based on those answers, and drives a remote printer or computer terminal.

On a mis au point des séquences d'ADN codant des polypeptides de liaison d'ADN comprenant un récepteur d'androgène (AR) ainsi que des polypeptides TR2. A titre d'illustration, l'ADNc d'AR humain et de rat ont des produits d'expression des polypeptides 79 kD et 98 kD pouvant être précipités immunologiquement par des anticorps de récepteur anti-androgène auto-immuns humains et sont capables de lier des androgènes spécifiquement et avec une grande affinité. On a également mis au point des anticorps ainsi que des procédés et des matières immunologiques permettant la détection du récepteur d'androgène et des polypeptides TR2, ainsi que des procédés et des matières d'hybridation permettant la détection de l'AR et d'acides nucléiques se rapportant au TR2.

An apparatus and method for manipulating small dielectric particles. The apparatus and method involves use of a optical element (40) which receives a laser beam and forms a of light beams. These light beams are operated on by a telescope lens system (34) and then an objective lens element (20) to create an array of optical traps (50) for manipulating small dielectric particles. To be accompanied when published by Figure 3 of the drawings.

This invention pertains to a method for controlling wound scar production by administering a calcium antagonist, alone or in a combination with or followed by a steroid, to the wound site. The method can be used to minimize wound scars, such as hypertrophic wound healing disorders, keloids and burn scar contractures in humans or other mammals, particularly those individually prone to excessive scarring. Calcium antagonist treatment can also be used to control diseases associated with excessive scarring, such as cirrhosis of the liver, constructive pericarditis, Dupuytren's disease of the hand, plantar fibrosis of the foot, and various other fibromatoses.
