Abstract:
Provided herein are Aminopurine Compounds having the following structure: wherein R1, R2 and and R3 are as defined herein, compositions comprising an effective amount of an Aminopurine Compound and methods for treating or preventing cancer, a cardiovascular disease, a renal disease, an autoimmune condition, an inflammatory condition, macular degeneration, ischemia-reperfusion injury, pain and related syndromes, disease-related wasting, an asbestos-related condition, pulmonary hypertension or a condition treatable or preventable by inhibition of the JNK pathway comprising administering an effective amount of an Aminopurine Compound to a patient in need thereof.
Abstract:
A method of operating a nuclear reactor is disclosed. The reactor (1) encloses a core having a plurality of fuel rods (9). Each fuel rod (9) includes a cladding and fuel pellets of a nuclear fuel. The fuel pellets are arranged in an inner space of the cladding leaving a free volume comprising an upper plenum, a lower plenum and a pellet-cladding gap. The reactor is operated at a normal power and a normal inlet sub-cooling during a normal state. The reactor is monitored for detecting a defect on the cladding of any of the fuel rods. The operation of the reactor is changed to a particular state after detecting such a defect. The particular state permits an increase of the free volume in the defect fuel rod. The reactor is operated at the particular state during a limited time period, after which the reactor is operated at the normal state.
Abstract:
The invention relates to methods of artificially coloring hair including applying to hair a composition containing at least one silicone film forming resin, at least one polysilicone polymer, and at least one hair colorant.
Abstract:
This invention relates to Benzopyranone Compounds, compositions comprising a Benzopyranone Compound and methods for treating or preventing cancer or inhibiting the growth of a cancer cell or neoplastic cell comprising administering an effective amount of a Benzopyranone Compound. The Benzopyranone Compounds have the formula: or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein R1 is halogen, trifluoromethyl or C1-6 alkyl.

Abstract:
The basic formulation comprises a combination of three estrogens, 2-hydroxyestrone, 17-beta-estradiol and estriol, and a metabolite of an estrogen, 2-methoxyestradiol, in specified amounts. Amounts of folic acid, DHEA, testosterone, Vitamin B6, Di-Indolyl Methane, melatonin and progesterone, as well as selenium and cobalt can be added in specific amounts to the basic formulation. 2-Hydroxyestradiol, another metabolic, can also be added.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for assessing the condition of and treating patients for heart failure by the delivery of continuous positive airway pressure are disclosed. Treatment of obstruction due to reflex vocal cord closure often experienced by heart failure patients is distinguished from treatment of upper airway obstruction typically associated with Obstructive Sleep Disorder. Treatment may also be implemented by delivering synchronized cardiac pressure oscillations superimposed on a respiratory pressure level to provide assistance for the heart. Heart treatment pressure dose indicator may be calculated for prescribing and monitoring the delivery of treatment. The apparatus may also generate data to track heart failure condition that may be indicative of the degree of severity of heart failure based upon breathing patterns to assist in the diagnosis and management of heart failure patients.
Abstract:
A back scratcher, including an elongated handle with an open end for gripping and a closed end inserted into a polypropylene or other light weight plastic head offering rigidity, flexibility, light weight and relatively low cost, and resembling in general appearance a poly leaf or shrub rake. The head is in a triangular shape and has a base from which extends individual, flexible, reinforced tines of a sufficient length to allow movement—particularly horizontally—when used in an upright position. Each tine can move independently of the other tines thus allowing the device to conform to the natural contours of a back and facilitating the even distribution of exerted pressure on the recipient's back.
