摘要:
A backpack includes a pack body, two length-adjustable shoulder straps extended from the pack body for allowing the wearer to wear the pack body at the wearer's back, and a suspension arrangement which includes a resilient unit provided between the pack body and the shoulder straps for absorbing a bounding force of the pack body. Therefore, the resilient unit allows a relative movement of the pack body with respect to each of the shoulder straps but minimizes the relative movement of the pack body by absorbing the bounding force of the pack body. The resilient unit is also arranged for evenly distributing a loading force of the pack body to each of the shoulder straps, such that the resilient unit absorbs the bounding force of the pack body at different directions so as to balance the uneven loading force at the pack body.

A long-term implantable arterio-venous shunt device or creation of a fistula is provided that can be used as a therapeutic method for treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The shunt device is implanted between an artery and a vein, preferably between a peripheral artery and the inferior vena cava. The shunt device and method of creating a fistula increases cardiac output and decreases the systemic vascular resistance and allows a blood flow rate through the shunt device of at least 5 ml/min after the implantation. Based on the effects of the method and device to the respiratory, cardiac and circulatory system, the method and device are beneficial as a therapy to patients with problems or conditions related to these systems.

A PCI Express-compatible flash device can include one or more flash memory modules, a controller, and an ExpressCard interface. The controller can advantageously provide PCI Express functionality as well as flash memory operations, e.g. writing, reading, or erasing, using the ExpressCard interface. A PIO interface includes sending first and second memory request packets to the flash device. The first memory request packet includes a command word setting that prepares the flash device for the desired operation. The second memory request packet triggers the operation and includes a data payload, if needed. A DMA interface includes sending the second memory request from the flash device to the host, thereby triggering the host to release the system bus for the DMA operation.

An intelligent endpoint can provide an automated, centralized boot management for multiple, interconnected computer systems. The intelligent endpoint can be notified of a boot event for one of the computer systems. This notification can occur over a system bus or via a system fabric. The intelligent endpoint can then decide on an appropriate action for the boot event. Notably, the action may affect or depend on a boot of another computer system. The intelligent endpoint can advantageously resolve arbitration issues in a cost- and size-efficient manner. Moreover, the intelligent endpoint can provide significant flexibility during booting.

A synergistic combination of ligands that interact with death domain receptors, and diterpenoid triepoxides is used to increase tumor cell killing by induction of apoptosis. Ligands useful in the invention include TRAIL, TNF-&agr;, analogs thereof, stabilized multimers thereof, mimetics, etc. Of particular interest are combined therapy with the diterpenoid triepoxides triptolide and derivatives and analogs thereof.
