    摘要: The present invention provides methods for reducing, reversing or inhibiting neovascularization in a tissue of a mammalian subject having a pathological condition involving neovascularization by administration in vivo of nanoceria particles (cerium oxide nanoparticles) to the subject. The method of the invention is useful, for example, for reducing, treating, reversing or inhibiting neovascularization in ocular tissue such as the retina, macula or cornea; in skin; in synovial tissue; in intestinal tissue; or in bone. In addition, the method of the invention is useful for reducing or inhibiting neovascularization in a neoplasm (tumors), which can be benign or malignant and, where malignant, can be a metastatic neoplasm. As such, the invention provides compositions, which contain nanoceria particles and are useful for reducing, treating, reversing or inhibiting angiogenesis in a mammalian subject.

    摘要: An implantable medical device and associated method discriminate between ventricular tachycardia and supraventricular tachycardia. Cardiac signals are sensed for detecting ventricular intervals corresponding to a tachycardia. Electrical stimulation pulses are delivered to cardiac neural tissue and verified as being effective in exciting the cardiac neural tissue. If the ventricular intervals corresponding to the tachycardia are increased in response to delivering stimulation pulses to the cardiac neural tissue, the tachycardia is detected as a supraventricular tachycardia.

    摘要: An implantable medical device and associated method assesses T-wave alternans. The method includes sensing a cardiac signal from implanted electrodes subsequent to a premature contraction; measuring a T-wave parameter from the sensed cardiac signal for a plurality of cardiac cycles; and determining a T-wave alternans metric corresponding to the measured T-wave parameter.

    摘要: A sympatholytic cardiovascular agent delivered by a drug delivery pump to a central nervous system site to alleviate symptoms and otherwise treat heart failure (HF) and pathologies associated with HF. The drug delivery pump can be external or implantable infusion pump (IIP) coupled with a drug infusion catheter extending to the site. A patient activator can command delivery of a dosage and/or an implantable heart monitor (IHM) coupled with a sensor can detect physiologic parameters associated with HF (or pathologies associated with HF) and trigger dosage delivery. The IIP and IHM can be combined into a single implantable medical device (IMD) or can constitute separate IMDs that communicate by any of known communication mechanisms. The sympatholytic cardiovascular agent is one of the group consisting of an alpha-adrenergic agonist and an alpha2-adrenergic agonist, e.g., clonidine, p-aminoclonidine, guanabenz, lidamidine, tizanidine, moxonidine, methyldopa, xylazine, guanfacine, detomidine, medetomidine, and dexmedetomidine.

    摘要: Neurostimulation is delivered to one or more predetermined locations on or within a patient in order to treat effects of sleep apnea by modulating autonomic nervous activity. Delivery of neurostimulation at predetermined locations can decrease sympathetic nervous activity and/or increase parasympathetic nervous activity, countering the increased intrinsic sympathetic activity associated with apnea-arousal cycles. In some embodiments, neurostimulation is delivered to the spinal cord of the patient via an implanted electrode. In other embodiments, neurostimulation is delivered transcutaneously to the spinal cord or other locations via electrodes located on the surface of the patient. In some embodiments, delivery of neurostimulation is initiated or modified in response to detection of apneas.
