20080215535AUTONOMICALLY GENERATING A QUERY IMPLEMENTATION THAT MEETS A DEFINED PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATION - A database query optimizer allows specifying a performance specification for a query. When an access plan is created, the actual performance for executing the query using the access plan is determined and compared to the performance specification for the query. If the actual performance does not satisfy the performance specification for the query, the query optimizer autonomically generates a different access plan to see if the performance improves. If an access plan that meets the performance specification is generated, the new access plan is stored in the access plan cache for the query. If no access plan can be generated that meets the performance specification for the query, the access plan that provided the best performance is selected and stored in the access plan cache for the query.09-04-2008

20100015647METHOD AND KIT FOR THE DETECTION OF HEPARIN-DEPENDENT ANTIBODIES AND THE DIAGNOSIS OF IMMUNE OR AUTOIMMUNE PAHTOLOGIES POTENTIATED BY HEPARIN SUCH AS HEPARIN-INDUCED THROMBOCYTOPENIA - The invention relates to a method for the detection of heparin-dependent antibodies and the diagnosis of immune or autoimmune pathologies potentiated by a heparin substance, such as thrombocytopenia induced by heparin (HIT type II) as inducer drug. The invention is characterized in that said method comprises the steps consisting in: 1) reacting: at least one substance with high affinity for a heparin substance (SFA), consisting of any molecule or complex having a high affinity for a heparin substance, with at least one heparin substance (SH) so as to form a substance with high affinity for heparin-heparin substance (SFA-SH) complex, wherein the heparin substance is in slight or large excess, so as to be able to bind other substances with affinity for heparin; then with at least one potential antigenic substance capable of reacting with the heparin substance, thus forming a complex (Ag-SH; and, finally, with the plasma or the serum of a patient to be tested (preferably diluted to a dilution of the order of 1:100) potentially containing: an anti(Ag-SH) antibody material generated in the organism after administration of a heparin substance, and/or at least one immune complex consisting of an Ag-SH/anti(Ag-SH) antibody complex present in the plasma or serum of the patient capable of reacting with the substance with high affinity for the heparin substance-heparin substance (SFA-SH) complex, and then, 2) revealing the resulting (Ag-SH)-anti(Ag-SH) complex produced.01-21-2010

20100035271Modification of Collagenous Materials and Medical Treatment, Diagnosis and Monitoring of Fibrotic Conditions - The present invention relates to the gene PLOD2 which codes for telopeptide lysyl hydroxylase (TLH). This enzyme converts telopeptidyl Lys into telopeptidyl Hyl, that can subsequently be converted into hydroxyallysine cross-links. Collagen with hydroxyallysine cross-links shows a higher resistance to degradation by proteinases than collagen with cross-links derived from allysine.02-11-2010
