Abstract: A medical device connection station comprising a body having a first portion of a docking interface to dock with a corresponding second portion of a docking interface of a medical device, a control unit controlling a medical device communication interface for communication with a docked medical device and controlling a server communication interface. The control unit is configured acquire medical data from a docked medical device via the medical device communication interface and is further configured to connect with and obtain a data session with the server system via the server communication interface, and to thereby transfer the medical data to the server system.

Abstract: The invention relates to the field of pharmaceutical formulations. More particularly, it is directed to xyloglucan hydrogels comprising Fibroblast Growth Factor 18 (FGF-18) compounds and methods of producing such hydrogels. The hydrogels of the invention can be used, once formed in situ, for the treatment of cartilage disorders such as osteoarthritis or cartilage injury.

Abstract: Methods, compositions and kits for determining the developmental potential of one or more embryos are provided. These methods, compositions and kits find use in identifying embryos in vitro that are most useful in treating infertility in humans.

Abstract: The present invention relates to recombinant Lactococcus lactis bacteria expressing and secreting TSLP or IL-25 or a combination thereof, and their use as probiotics or therapeutic agents, especially for use in the treatment of inflammatory diseases and disorders.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel melatonin-based formulation, particularly a topical liquid composition of melatonin (or analog thereof) suitable for use in intrauterine washing performed during medically assisted reproduction (e.g. in vitro fertilization—IVF). Melatonin is notoriously unstable, especially in solution. The compositions of the invention exhibit high stability, which allows them to be kept for prolonged periods before their eventual use in the inhibition or prevention of embryonic implantation failure.

Abstract: The present invention relates to new serum- and protein-free culture media. These media are high performance culture media, which notably improve mammalian fed-batch cultures. The present invention also relates to methods for preparing and/or designing the medium, and methods of use thereof.

Abstract: An injection device for injecting medication to a patient, comprising a surface (5) having a through hole (3) for passage of a needle, is characterised by further comprising a capacitive proximity sensor (12, 13, 30) for detecting proximity or contact of human skin to/with said surface (5).

Abstract: The present invention refers to the use of N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine (melatonin) and/or an analogue thereof, for use in the medical or veterinary field in the assisted reproduction for promoting the mechanism of implantation of the embryo, and in particular for the prevention of implantation failure into the uterus, by topical administration of an effective amount in a mammalian subject female in need of such treatment, and related compositions, culture media and medical devices.

Abstract: The present invention provides compounds of Formula (I) used as Amyloid beta lowering agent for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract: The invention relates to the field of pharmaceutical formulations. More particularly, it is directed to homogeneous hydrogels comprising Fibroblast Growth Factor 18 (FGF-18) compound and to methods of producing such hydrogels. The hydrogels of the invention can be used, once formed in situ, for the treatment of cartilage disorders such as osteoarthritis or cartilage injury.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a vector comprising a polynucleotide encoding a modified glutamine synthetase (GS), and a method for preparing a target protein employing the same. More particularly, the present invention relates to a modified GS having an increased sensitivity to a glutamine synthetase (GS) inhibitor, a polynucleotide encoding the modified GS, a vector comprising the polynucleotide, a transformant comprising the vector, and a method for preparing a target protein using the transformant.

Abstract: The invention relates to a stable, pharmaceutically acceptable, aqueous formulation of TNF-binding protein, comprising a TNF-binding protein, a buffer and an isotonicity agent.

Abstract: The invention relates to monoclonal antibodies against human CXCR5 and to their use in the treatment of autoimmune or inflammatory diseases, as well as cancers.

Abstract: The present invention provides fused bicyclic triazole derivatives of Formula (I) useful as gamma secretase modulators (GSM), for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease and related diseases.

Abstract: The invention relates to a stable, pharmaceutically acceptable, aqueous formulation of TNF-binding protein, comprising a TNF-binding protein, a buffer and an isotonicity agent.
