20100124533Large Animal Model for Human-Like Advanced Atherosclerotic Plaque - An animal model for cardiovascular disease comprising one or more vascular plaque lesions formed at selected sites within a vascular segment of a nonhuman mammal. The vascular plaque lesion is formed by administering a hypercholesterolemic diet to the nonhuman mammal, inflicting an injury to the vascular wall at the selected site after a predetermined exposure to the hypercholesterolemic diet, and applying a hydrogel to the injured vascular wall. Another aspect of the invention provides a method for evaluating a test compound for an effect on atherosclerotic lesion formation comprising administering to a nonhuman mammal a hypercholesterolemic diet, and, after a defined period of time, isolating a segment of a blood vessel using a balloon catheter, inflicting an injury to the vascular wall within the isolated segment, and applying a hydrogel within the vascular segment. The method further comprises forming a vascular plaque lesion on the vascular wall at the site of the injury, delivering the test compound to the nonhuman mammal, and monitoring atherosclerotic lesion size and composition at the injured site after a defined period of exposure to the test compound.05-20-2010

20090024593QUERY PREDICATE GENERATOR TO CONSTRUCT A DATABASE QUERY PREDICATE FROM RECEIVED QUERY CONDITIONS - Provided are a method, system, and article of manufacture for a query predicate generator to construct a database query predicate from received query conditions. A plurality of query conditions are received, wherein each query condition includes a comparison operator and a comparison value for a database attribute, and wherein the comparison operator is capable of comprising matching and non-matching operators. The query conditions are processed to determine at least one logical operator to include between the query conditions. A database query predicate is generated to use in a database query to apply against the database comprising the received query conditions chained using the determined logical operators.01-22-2009
20090063484CREATING PLAYBACK DEFINITIONS INDICATING SEGMENTS OF MEDIA CONTENT FROM MULTIPLE CONTENT FILES TO RENDER - Provided are a method, system, and article of manufacture for creating playback definitions indicating segments of media content from multiple content files to render. User input is received indicating a plurality of segments of media content from a plurality of media files and an ordering of the segments. The media content comprises at least one of audio and video content. A playback definition is generated in a computer readable medium indicating the plurality of segments in the user input and the ordering of the segments. The playback definition is processed to render the media content of the indicated segments in the indicated ordering.03-05-2009
20100158206PERFORMING HUMAN CLIENT VERIFICATION OVER A VOICE INTERFACE - Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for verifying incoming telephone calls to a telephone services subscriber. An incoming telephone call from a caller is received. A time variable including one or more of a current date, a day-of-week, and a time-of-day is determined. One or more challenge questions is selected from a pre-defined schedule, in response to determining the time variable. The schedule includes challenge questions for different time variables. The caller is subjected to the one or more challenge questions. At least one challenge response to one or more of the selected challenge questions is received. It is determined whether the at least one challenge response was an expected correct response. If the at least one challenge response was correct, an action is taken with respect to the incoming telephone call.06-24-2010
20100158233PERFORMING HUMAN CLIENT VERIFICATION OVER A VOICE INTERFACE - Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for managing telephone calls. Upon completion of a telephone call, a telephone services subscriber is provided with a post-call interface. The post call interface allows the subscriber to define how future telephone calls from the caller are to be managed. Instructions are received from the subscriber through the post-call interface. The instructions pertain to the management of future telephone calls from the caller. The received instructions are saved.06-24-2010

20120272178METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PROVIDING EASY ACCESS IN A USER AGENT TO DATA RESOURCES RELATED TO CLIENT-SIDE WEB APPLICATIONS - The present invention is directed toward a computer implemented method and device for providing a user with easy access to a plurality of frequently accessed data resources, including at least one web application. The invention provides a user agent (e.g., web browser) in which graphical representations, which are associated with the data resources, are displayed within particular locations of a window. A user invocable instruction (e.g., mouse click or a particular keystroke combination) may be associated with each of the graphical representations and their respective locations in the window. Accordingly, a user invocable instruction may be associated with the window location associated with a particular web application, thereby triggering an event in the application which in turn, e.g., can cause the user agent to retrieve a related data resource.10-25-2012
