Disclosed herein are pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of acquired brain injury (ABI), including traumatic brain injury (TBI) and acute non-traumatic brain injury (ANBI), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and other degenerative neurological disorders that may or may not be associated with ABI comprising an effective amount of one or more mTOR inhibitors and optionally an effective amount of one or more thyroid hormones. Further disclosed herein are methods of treating, preventing, reducing the intensity of or reducing the severity of ABI and/or PTSD, the method comprising administering an effective amount of one or more mTOR inhibitors and optionally an effective amount of one or more thyroid hormones.
摘要:
Heterogeneous data at a plurality of remote nodes is accessed automatically in parallel at high speed from a user site using a simple script request containing a data source object name wherein the heterogeneous data is treated as a single data source object, the script further containing at least one method to be performed on the data source object and at least a second method to be automatically performed on the results of executing the first method. A user site agent breaks the user-generated script into new scripts appropriate for execution at the remote nodes and determines whether the second method should be executed at the remote nodes or at the user site. A messenger process transmits the new scripts to the appropriate remote nodes where respective agent processes respond to automatically access the appropriate data and to automatically execute the specified methods.

Further disclosed herein are methods of treating or preventing obesity, excess or overweight conditions, and metabolic syndrome comprising administering an effective amount of a pharmaceutical composition comprising one or more mTOR inhibitors and optionally an effective amount of one or more thyroid hormones and/or an effective amount of one or more cholesterol-lowering agents.
摘要:
Methods are executed upon data objects distributed across a plurality of nodes of a system from a user-held “special” device (such as a cell phone, palm top, set top, car GPS system, . . . ). Heterogeneous data at a plurality of remote nodes is accessed automatically in parallel at high speed using a simple script request containing a data source object name wherein the heterogeneous data is treated as a single data source object, the script further containing code representing a user-defined program to be executed on the data source object. An agent breaks the user-generated script into new scripts appropriate for execution at the remote nodes. A messenger process transmits the new scripts to the appropriate remote nodes where respective agent processes respond to automatically access the appropriate data and to automatically execute the specified program. If the program is a user-defined script or executable, the respective agent processes access a metadata repository to obtain the specified program. A set of complex transactions may be built up and executed by simply touching or updating the special device screen, according to a visual methodology in which the results of each sub-transaction are displayed and become the basis for the next point and touch operation in the sequence of transactions.

A guide wire assembly includes a guide wire, an optical fiber, and an insulating coating. The guide wire has a distal end, a proximal end, and a bore extending through the wire between the distal and proximal ends. The an optical fiber also includes a distal end and a proximal end and is located within the bore of the guide wire. The optical fiber extends at least between the distal and proximal ends of the guide wire. The insulating coating is around an outside diameter of the guide wire, and is applied such that the distal ends of the guide wire and optical fiber are exposed.
摘要:
A number of partitions of a cellular multiprocessor (CMP) are connected to respective databases and form respective nodes of a data warehouse. Heterogeneous data stored across the nodes is accessed automatically in parallel at high speed from a user site using a simple script request containing a data source object name wherein the heterogeneous data is treated as a single data source object, the script further containing at least one method to be performed on the data source object. Respective agent processes are stored in memory dedicated to each partition and automatically generate descriptor files containing metadata corresponding to the data source object from a repository available to each partition. A messenger process transmits the new scripts to the appropriate nodes via memory-based messaging using a shared portion of the CMP memory. Respective agent processes at each node respond to automatically access the appropriate data and execute specified methods upon it.

摘要:
Expandable laser catheters for utilizing laser energy to remove obstructions from body passages are described. In one embodiment, the laser catheter includes a shaftway having a distal end including a flexible portion configured in a series of radial folds. Multiple optical fibers, configured to transmit laser energy, extend along the shaftway and are attached to the flexible portion. An inflatable, ring-shaped balloon is attached to the catheter within the flexible portion. In use, the catheter is inserted into a body passage such as an artery, and advanced until the distal end is adjacent to an obstruction. The balloon is inflated to expand the flexible portion and to bring the optical fibers nearer the inner wall of the body passage. Laser energy is directed by the optical fibers toward targeted regions of the obstruction. As the catheter is advanced and the process repeated, a core is formed from the obstruction and contained within the flexible portion. The flexible portion is then contracted to hold the core, and the core is removed from the body passage by withdrawing the catheter.
