摘要:
Methods for generating and using omentum cells, and particularly stromal cells and/or omentum stem cells, in medical treatments such as tissue repair and regeneration to facilitate healing from traumatic injury to an abdominal organ, and immune modulation treatments such as suppression of immune responses and inflammation and prevention of tissue fibrosis. According to one aspect, a medical procedure is performed on a patient that involves harvesting omental tissue from the patient, and then transferring the omental tissue to an organ of the patient. At least a portion of the harvested omental tissue may be activated prior to transferring the omental tissue to the organ. Alternatively, the transferred omental tissue may comprise non-lymphoid cells isolated from the omentum tissue and obtained by homogenizing at least a portion of the harvested omental tissue. The invention also encompasses a medical procedure comprising the transfer of omental stem cells to a patient, and a procedure comprising in vitro activation of omental stem cells by T cells to enhance immunomodulatory functions of the omental stem cells.

A method, telecommunication apparatus, and electronic device for detecting a status of a radio link are disclosed. A transceiver 302 may maintain a radio link with a network base station 104. A processor 304 may map channel state information to a synchronization status associated with the radio link based on the received signal and determine the synchronization status via a block error rate estimate in the radio link based on the channel state information.

A wireless communications system base station (101), upon receiving (202) from a mobile station (102) a wireless transmission that comprises a suggested transmitter-receiver configuration, can respond (in appropriate instances) by automatically transmitting (203) to the mobile station a wireless transmission comprising an indication to use instead a default transmitter-receiver configuration. By one approach, the latter action can be based, at least in part, upon a determination regarding reliability (301) of that suggested transmitter-receiver configuration (which might comprise, for example, a direct or indirect measure of quality of the channel by the default transmitter-receiver configuration was received) to provide a corresponding reliability assessment. The latter can then be used (302) to determine whether to use this suggested transmitter-receiver configuration for a subsequent communication with the mobile station.

A method for sleep mode during an impending handover is disclosed. The method comprises receiving (104) from a network a handover threshold value. Then once in sleep mode, monitoring (128) a channel condition of a handover candidate cell and determining that the handover threshold value of the handover candidate cell has been exceeded. After receiving a pending data indicator, remaining awake (134) to receive a data set associated with the pending data indicator. The network re-schedules (218) transmission of the data set to the mobile station.
摘要:
A method in a wireless communication network (100) wherein information is communicated in a frame structure wherein each frame includes multiple sub-frames, including grouping at least two wireless communication terminals in a group, assigning the group to less than all sub-frames constituting a communication frame, and assigning a radio resource assignment control channel of one or more assigned sub-frames to the group. The control channel is used to assign radio resources to one or more terminals of the group.

The invention disclosed herein provides a drag socket comprising a frame, a first attachment means for connecting the frame to a control line, a second attachment means for connecting the frame to a drag line, a socket body removably attached to the frame, a releasing wedge releasably inserted into the socket body, a locking wedge releasably inserted into the releasing wedge, a wire rope termination fused to a wire rope adjacent the locking wedge, and a load plate movably attached to the frame adjacent the releasing wedge whereby the releasing wedge is retained in the socket body when a force is applied to the wire rope. The invention also discloses a process of forming a drag socket attached to a wire rope comprising the steps of providing a drag socket frame, inserting the wire rope into a socket body in the drag socket frame, forming a termination on the wire rope, applying a releasing wedge to the wire rope and placing it into the socket body, applying a locking wedge to the wire rope and placing it into the releasing wedge, applying a load plate adjacent the socket body in a position to resist forces from the releasing wedge, and applying tension to the wire rope to move the termination to compress the locking wedge and the releasing wedge. Additionally, the invention discloses a process of releasing a drag socket from a wire rope comprising the steps of providing a drag socket frame, providing a termination on the wire rope, providing a locking wedge adjacent the termination, providing a releasing wedge around the locking wedge, providing a socket body, secured in the socket frame around the releasing wedge, providing a load plate adjacent the releasing wedge and removably secured within the frame, providing a retaining means for applying pressure to the load plate and the frame, and removing the retaining means whereby pressure on the load plate is released and the releasing wedge is released.
摘要:
A mobile wireless communication terminal, for example, 3G UMTS user equipment (UE), and methods including receiving (310) a notification of a change in a cell serving the mobile wireless communication terminal, and transmitting (320) scheduling information to a new serving cell in response to receiving the notification of the serving cell change. In the 3G UMTS applications, the notification is an enhanced dedicated channel (E-DCH) allocation, and the scheduling information includes buffer and transmitting power headroom information is transmitted in an enhanced medium access control (MAC-e) protocol data unit (PDU).

The method for making a termination for a wire rope entails inserting a first end of the wire rope end into a mold, wherein the mold comprises a mold opening; placing a crucible on the mold, adding a separator to the crucible over an opening in the crucible, adding an exothermic metallic material to a crucible, igniting the exothermic metallic material to form a molten material that liquefies the separator; flowing the liquefied separator onto the end of the wire rope forming a termination capable of sustaining a higher break force than the wire rope. Other embodiments of the method entail using a liquid adhesive to form the termination.
