An implantable medical device comprising stimulation circuitry adapted to provide neural stimulation energy to a neural stimulation electrode, one or more timers, including at least one neural event timer, a device behavior memory including a neural table, and a comparison circuit. The neural table maps a particular device state defined at least in part by a neural event timer to one or more associated device actions that include at least one of a neural stimulation energy delivery, a change in state of at least one neural event timer, and both a neural stimulation energy delivery and a change in state of one or more timers. The comparison circuit is adapted to compare a current state of one or more timers to a device state in the neural table and, if found to match, causing performance of one or more associated device actions.

A device and method for implementing a bradycardia pacing mode are disclosed which is mostly hardware-based but still allows the flexibility for making major changes in brady behavior normally found only in firmware-based implementations. The brady behavior of the device is encapsulated by a table in an area of RAM referred to as brady RAM, and the brady behavior can be changed by re-loading the brady RAM with a different table.

A free-flow electrophoresis (FFE) apparatus and separation medium for separating particles therefore, includes a separation chamber with a dosage pump for conveying medium, electrodes for applying an electric field in the medium and sample injection points for adding a mixture of particles to be separated and fractionation points for removing the particles. Definable charge labels couple with the particles to form charge-modified particles which display with a different migratory behavior in FFE The apparatus includes focusing buffers between the separation medium and at least one electrode which has much higher electrical conductivity than the separation medium.

An intermediate form is designed for folding to a double postcard mailer that has dimensions and sealing features that meet U.S. Postal Service standards for postcard sealing and postal rates. The intermediate form includes a single ply of stock having a first face and a second face, a first and a second end edge, and a first and a second side edge. The first and the second side edges are disposed in a substantially perpendicular orientation to the first and the second end edges. The single ply includes a fold line extending at a substantially transverse orientation to and between the first and the second side edges. The fold line is disposed to define a first panel and a second panel in the single ply. The first panel and/or the second panel has/have postcard dimensions.

A business form or intermediate is provided including a single ply having a front or first face and a back or second face for receiving information thereon and having a top edge, a bottom edge, a first side edge and a second side edge. The single ply has a body portion defining one or more panels, and an insert portion disposed along one edge of the body portion and defining one or more panels. The insert portion has a width less than a width of one of the one or more panels of the body portion. A first application of cohesive is disposed vertically on said one or more panels of the body portion adjacent to the first side edge along the back or second face, while a second application of cohesive is disposed vertically on the one or more panels of the body portion adjacent to the second side edge along the back or second face. A first pull tab is defined by adjacent lines of weakness extending transversely along at least a portion of said width of one panel of the body portion. One of the lines of weakness is disposed between one panel of the body portion and one panel of the insert portion. The body and insert portions, when folded, construct the business form or intermediate and enclose the first pull tab within the interior of the business form or intermediate. The first pull tab is exposed when said business form or intermediate is opened or unfolded and removal of the first pull tab releases at least one of the panels of the insert portion.

Approaches for adjusting the pacing energy delivered by a pacemaker are provided. Adjusting the pacing energy involves performing a plurality of capture threshold tests, each capture threshold test measuring a capture threshold of the heart. One or more measured captured thresholds are selected, including at least one capture threshold that is higher relative to other measured capture thresholds acquired by the plurality of capture threshold tests. The pacing energy is adjusted based on the one or more selected capture thresholds.

The invention provides an intermediate form for use in forming a business type mailer, such as a Z-fold or an eccentric Z-fold mailer. The intermediate form is configured as an individual intermediate that is supplied as a single sheet where a multiple of intermediates is provided in stacked form. Alternatively, the intermediate form is configured such that a multiple of intermediates can be provided as a continuous web or sheet and can be supplied in a roll form. The single sheet intermediate and the web or roll form intermediate are defined with pluralities of patterns of cohesive disposed at certain locations along first and second, or front and back, surfaces of the intermediates such that when provided in a stacked form or a roll form the cohesive patterns do not touch or overlap one another.

A system and method for electronic file management includes an object-oriented file management database, a volume manager, and a coherency manager. The volume manager manages electronic files and metadata relating to the files of one or more volumes. Each volume may include folders, files, and/or other digital content. A user interface facilitates user interaction with the file management system. The user interface enables a user to view and manage, within the file management system, metadata associated with the electronic files by graphically displaying information about the files and the metadata and enabling the user to manipulate the files and the metadata.

A method for separating particles in free-flow electrophoresis FFE includes conveying a separation medium using a dosage pump into a separation chamber; releasing the separation medium via outlets; applying an electrical field in the separation medium; coupling a particle to be separated with selectively defined charge labels for generating charge-modified particles which due to their selectively modified net surface charge display a different migratory behavior in FFE than non-charge-modified particles; adding a mixture of particles to be separated to the separation medium in the separation chamber by way of sample injection points; removing the particles separated using the separation medium by way of fractionation points; and collecting the fractions with the separated particles. Focusing buffers are created using a buffer medium between the separation medium and at least one electrode, whereby this buffer medium is much more electrically conductive than the separation medium and is fed into these focusing buffers.
摘要:
An intermediate form is designed for folding to a double postcard mailer that has dimensions and sealing features that meet U.S. Postal Service standards for postcard sealing and postal rates. The intermediate form includes a single ply of stock having a first face and a second face, a first and a second end edge, and a first and a second side edge. The first and the second side edges are disposed in a substantially perpendicular orientation to the first and the second end edges. The single ply includes a fold line extending at a substantially transverse orientation to and between the first and the second side edges. The fold line is disposed to define a first panel and a second panel in the single ply. The first panel and/or the second panel has/have postcard dimensions. A first application of adhesive is disposed adjacent to the fold line and substantially near a center point along the fold line that is disposed substantially equidistant from the first and the second side edges. The first application of adhesive is disposed closer to the center point than to the first side edge and/or the second side edge. A second application of adhesive may be disposed adjacent to at least the first or the second end edge and extend along at least a portion of the end edge. The first and the second applications of adhesive help to secure the intermediate form when the form folds to the double postcard.
