20120322645METHOD OF SYNTHESIZING MULTI-IPHASE OXIDE CERAMICS WITH SMALL PHASE DOMAIN SIZES - Nanocomposites of multi-phase metal oxide ceramics have been produced from water soluble salts of the resulting metal oxides by a foaming esterification sol-gel method. The evolution of volatile gases at elevated temperature during the esterification reaction causes the formation of a foam product. Nanocomposites of multi-phase metal oxide ceramics have also been produced by a cation polymer precursor method. In this second method, the metal cations are chelated by the polymer and the resulting product is gelled and foamed. Calcination of the resulting foams gives nanocomposite powders with extremely fine, uniform grains and phase domains. These microstructures are remarkably stable both under post-calcination heat treatment and during consolidation by hot-pressing.12-20-2012

20120097155SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INTEGRATED PACED BREATHING AND INHALATION THERAPY - The invention provides systems and methods for providing integrated paced breathing and inhalation therapy to a patient. Paced breathing includes alternately providing a high and a low airway pressure to a respiratory system of the patient using a breathing circuit, wherein the high airway pressure coincides with inhalation by the patient and the low airway pressure coincides with exhalation by the patient. A therapeutic substance is delivered to the respiratory system of the patient during the provision of high airway pressure to the respiratory system of the patient, wherein delivery of the compound to the respiratory system of the patient is discontinued during provision of low airway pressure to the respiratory system of the patient.04-26-2012
