Abstract: A method of determining the intraocular pressure of an eye of a subject, the method comprising the steps of: providing a measurement device comprising a contact lens having a pressure sensor, introducing the measurement device into the eye of the subject, obtaining data from the measurement device whilst the eye of the subject is open, and using the data to determine the intraocular pressure of the eye.

Abstract: A balloon catheter having an improved profile by placing the proximal balloon neck inside the outer catheter shaft. This outer catheter shaft to balloon neck joint allows for a smaller outer diameter at the joint between the outer catheter shaft and the balloon, thus providing a reduced catheter profile with improved crossability, trackability and stiffness. The balloon may be a no-fold balloon having a uniform wall thickness, a uniform inner diameter, and a uniform outer diameter along its full length in an unexpanded configuration. A balloon with such uniform dimensions provides for a more flexible balloon by eliminating the thicker neck and taper portions of the balloon. Further, the no-fold aspect of the balloon reduces the profile of the balloon catheter thus resulting in improved crossability and trackability.

Abstract: In a server a source document is represented as a source document object model (13). For delivery of the source document to a user device such as a mobile phone the server dynamically selects transformation maps (10) and merges them to provide a compound map (12). The maps (10) are selected according to characteristics of the delivery channel and of the user device. The source DOM (13) is then transformed into a target DOM (14) in a single pass. Each node of the source DOM (13) self-transforms using the map rules. At the node level the transformation may change node attributes and/or node-to-node relationships.

Abstract: A precision yarn (14) delivery system for the delivery of yarn from a yarn supply to a yarn utilising point, comprising a temporary yarn store (22) intermediate the supply and the utilisation point in which the yarn (14) is held under low tension and is fed from the store as required by the utilisation point.

Abstract: A protein-based composition for application to the mouth end of a smoking article to reduce the amount of carbon monoxide, tar and nicotine inhaled by a smoker. Also disclosed is a method for the cessation of smoking by applying the protein-based compostion to the mouth end of a smoking article.
