摘要:
A filter mask includes an oronasal cup, an inhalation directional cover, and an exhalation diverter body. The oronasal cup encloses a nose and mouth of a user. The oronasal cup is fluidly coupled with a filter. The inhalation directional cover is configured to be joined to the filter. The inhalation directional cover includes an elongated wing portion that is oriented in an inhalation direction that is angled with respect to the center axis of the filter. The exhalation diverter body is fluidly coupled with the oronasal cup. The exhalation diverter body defines an exhalation duct that directs exhaled air out of the oronasal cup along an exhalation direction. The inhalation direction and the exhalation direction are oriented away from a plane of interaction between the user and another person.

The present invention provides a composite material comprising fibrinogen or fibrin, or a mixture thereof, and a bioactive glass. The invention also relates to wound dressings and pharmaceutical compositions containing the composite material. Further aspects of the invention relate to the use of the composite material of the for treating a wound, treating or preventing bacterial infections in a wound, preventing or alleviating bleeding in a wound, sterilising a wound, controlling haemorrhaging, increasing the rate of coagulation of blood and/or activating a coagulation system in a wound.

An engine has a crankshaft. A compression piston within a compression cylinder is connected to the crankshaft such that the compression piston reciprocates through an intake stroke and a compression stroke. An expansion piston within an expansion cylinder is connected to the crankshaft such that the expansion piston reciprocates through an expansion stroke and an exhaust stroke. A crossover passage interconnects the compression and expansion cylinders. The crossover passage includes a crossover compression valve and a crossover expansion valve. A runner section is in a downstream portion of the crossover passage, and a helical end section is integrally connected to the runner section. The helical end section has a funnel spiraling about a valve stem of the crossover expansion valve. The funnel forces incoming air to rotate about the valve stem prior to entering the expansion cylinder to promote turbulent kinetic energy in the cylinder air/fuel charge.
摘要:
A method and system of monitoring an object (e.g., for change in configuration of a person) includes projecting a radiation pattern onto the object; recording at a first time first image data representing a portion of the projected radiation pattern on the object, the first image data representative of a three dimensional configuration of the object at the first time; recording at a second time second image data representing a portion of the projected pattern of radiation on the object, the second image data representative of a three dimensional configuration of the object at the second time; and processing the first and second image data to generate differential data representative of a change in the configuration of the object between the first and second times.

The use of a compound which prevents, inhibits or modifies the action of interleukin-1 as an active agent for the treatment of conditions of neurological degeneration. The active agent may be IL-1 receptor antagonist, particularly recombinant IL-1 ra.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for using gas exchange modules for adjusting a pH value of blood in order to, e.g., adjust a non-physiological pH in patients treated with drugs whose activity optimum is in a non-physiological pH or to bring the pH to a physiological value.
