摘要:
The present invention is an insert having a raised region that contacts an arch region of a wearer's foot, which may be selectively reinforced with a removable supplemental support. In exemplary embodiments, the insert includes a heel region adapted to receive at least a region of a heel of a wearer, and the raised region has a length situated along a width of the insert and adapted to underlie a calcaneus-midtarsal connection of a foot the wearer. The raised region is defined by a bottom semi-cylindrical surface that forms a cavity below the raised region so that an apex of the bottom semi-cylindrical surface lies above a bottom flat surface of the insert. Inside the cavity, the support is removably coupled to the cavity for selectively increasing or decreasing a rigidity of the raised region of the insert in order to apply a user-selected therapeutic pressure.

Compositions, kits and methods are provided for preventing or treating tissue injury caused by stresses or shocks related to oxygen deficiency, such as ischemia, anoxia, hypoxia, reperfusion and other environmental stresses. In particular, protein kinase C (PKC) isozyme-specific agonists and antagonists are provided for treating cardiac tissue damage due to ischemia-reperfusion, such as acute myocardial infarction.
摘要:
An arrangement for maintaining even tube burn-in. The arrangement identifies active and inactive display regions on a display unit when video content is displayed on the display unit. When inactive display regions are identified the arrangement monitors the duration that the active display regions remain active. After the active display regions become inactive and a predetermined time period has passed the arrangement displays a corrective image on the identified inactive regions. The predetermined time period may be set by a user or based on the user's viewing habits.

A system and corresponding methods are provided for enabling communication with an electronic apparatus via a network. The system comprises: a first device for transmitting a communication comprising identification parameters associated with a second device, wherein the communication is compatible with a communication protocol of a first electronic apparatus; a first electronic apparatus for communicating with the second device, wherein first electronic apparatus comprises a first interface for wirelessly communicating with the first device and a second interface for communicating with the second device via a network; and a second device for communicating with the first electronic apparatus, with the second device communicating the first electronic apparatus via the network.
摘要:
An electronic apparatus includes an Ethernet interface for connecting the apparatus to a network; means for assigning an IP address to the apparatus for use by the apparatus to initiate communication with a TCP/IP server in the network having means for diagnosing and/or aligning the electronic appliance; and means for executing commands from the TCP/IP server and for reporting status to the TCP/IP server. The commands are selected from the group consisting of maintenance commands, diagnostic commands, software update commands, and alignment commands.
