Abstract:
Cephalad and caudal vertebral facet joint prostheses and methods of use are provided. The prostheses provide an artificial facet joint structure including an artificial articular configuration unlike the preexisting articular configuration. The radii and material stress values of the prostheses are configured to sustain contact stress. The cephalad prosthesis provides for posterior-anterior adjustment. Both prostheses permit lateral adjustment and adjustment to accommodate interpedicle distance. Further, the prostheses may be customized to provide a pre-defined lordotic angle and a pre-defined pedicle entry angle.
Abstract:
The present invention addresses the critical needs of publishers seeking to create and publish hypermedia content in electronic form across the wide area networks (“WAN's”) such as the World Wide Web. Toward this end, a client-server development platform is provided for handling the important functions of document authoring, content-based indexing and retrieval of documents, management and control of proprietary assets, and a support for developing form-driven interactive services, all in a manner that is uniquely and seamlessly WAN-integrated.
Abstract:
Client-server architectures for allowing web applications to operate even when the client and server are disconnected. Exemplary architectures include a local web engine associated with a local cache which can be separate from a browser cache and browser application. Exemplary data structures include web documents having one or more control commands embedded in the head with manifest code. Exemplary methods include operating web applications when the client is offline, caching web applications, executable code, web documents, security code, and/or remote files, allowing web application access of local files, and operating client/web applications.
Abstract:
The use of a compound of formula (1): wherein: R1 is aryl; R2 is H, alkyl or aryl; and R3 is hydrogen or alkyl; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or prodrug thereof, in the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of a disorder mediated by CB1 receptors.

Abstract:
In a method of developing muscle mass in a mammal, nicotine or nicotine acetylcholine receptor agonist (nAChR) is administered in combination with exercise to stimulate, recruit and mobilize muscle cells to a specific muscle mass.
Abstract:
A flexible cable comprises a cable body of a silicone material and circuits in the flexible cable body. In one embodiment the flexible cable body comprises a multiple number of individual layers of poly(dimethylsiloxane). In one embodiment silicone material encapsulates the individual layers. The flexible cable is made by providing a multiplicity of substrates of a flexible silicone material, producing circuits in the substrates, and stacking the multiplicity of substrates to produce the high density flexible cable.
Abstract:
A device adapted to dispense or spray a coating such as a foam in a predetermined pattern or manner on a substrate, preferably a roof. The spray coating apparatus comprises a spray assembly having a carriage which is operatively mounted on a track that preferably provides a linear travel path. The carriage is controlled by a drive mechanism which causes reciprocating movement of the carriage. A spray gun is mounted on a holder of the carriage and controlled by an actuator and is used to uniformly apply coatings at a predetermined thickness controlled in part by a spray rate on the intended substrate. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a cart which is either motorized or manual. The apparatus is lightweight and easily disassembled into sections in order to transport the device from a ground surface to a roof.
