| 20110319595 | FLAGELLIN RELATED POLYPEPTIDES AND USES THEREOF - The use of flagellin and flagellin related polypectides for the protection of mammals from the effects of apoptsis is described. | 12-29-2011 |
| 20110319344 | FLAGELLIN RELATED POLYPEPTIDES AND USES THEREOF - The use of flagellin and flagellin related polypectides for the protection of mammals from the effects of apoptsis is described. | 12-29-2011 |
| 20110311118 | Techniques for 3-D Elastic Spatial Registration of Multiple Modes of Measuring a Body - Techniques for registration of multiple measurement modes of a body include receiving first and second data from different modes. Each includes measured values with coordinate values. For two mechanically aligned modes, any non-rigid registration is performed. For some modes, the non-rigid registration includes a coarse transformation and multiple fine scale transformations. The coarse transformation maximizes a coarse similarity measure. The second data is sub-divided into contiguous sub-regions. Fine transformations are determined between the sub-regions and corresponding portions of the first data to maximize a fine similarity measure. Sub-dividing and determining fine transformations repeats until stop conditions are satisfied. Transformations between the last-divided sub-regions are interpolated. Any of the fine similarity measure, a search region, interpolation method, sub-division location, and the use of rigid or non-rigid fine transformations are adaptive to properties of the first or second data so that the registration is automatic without human intervention. | 12-22-2011 |

| 20110135665 | METHODS FOR TREATING REPERFUSION INJURIES - The present invention relates to treating a tissue in a mammal from the effects of reperfusion using flagellin. | 06-09-2011 |
| 20100174231 | METHOD FOR PHYSIOLOGIC CONTROL OF A CONTINUOUS FLOW TOTAL ARTIFICIAL HEART - A method is provided of controlling a pump including a electrical motor coupled to a rotor which carries first and second impellers at opposite ends thereof. The method includes: (a) driving the rotor using the motor, so as to circulate fluid from the first impeller through a first fluid circuit, the second impeller, a second fluid circuit, and back to the first impeller; (b) determining a resistance of the first fluid circuit, based on a first motor parameter; (c) determining a flow rate through the first fluid circuit based on a second motor parameter; and (d) varying at least one operational parameter of the pump so as to maintain a predetermined relationship between the flow rate and the resistance of the first fluid circuit. | 07-08-2010 |
| 20100150749 | CENTRIFUGAL PUMP WITH OFFSET VOLUTE - A pump includes: (a) an elongated pump housing having first and second ends; (b) a primary impeller mounted in the housing for rotation about an axis, the impeller comprising a plurality of vanes whose outer tips define an impeller plane; (c) an inlet disposed in fluid communication with the primary impeller; and (d) an annular volute housing communicating with the primary impeller and with an outlet, where the volute housing is axially offset from the impeller plane. | 06-17-2010 |
