Abstract: The present invention relates to anti-VEGF/anti-IL-1beta antibodies and methods of using the same.

Abstract: Drive device for a stopper closure on a metallurgical vessel, including a housing arranged on the vessel in a removable manner, an adjustment system mounted in the housing so as to be height-displaceable and has a drive which can be coupled to the housing, and an upper connection element for a support arm carrying the fire-proof stopper. The adjustment system for the stopper is mounted so as to be height-displaceable on at least one bearing shaft fastened in the housing. This design of the adjustment system permits an increase in the stiffness of the drive device and hence of the fire-proof stopper suspended by the drive device on the support arm during pouring.

Abstract: A supporting and drive belt including a belt body or sheathing which encloses tensile carriers. The running surface of the belt can be flat and parallel to the belt back or have trapezium-shaped or semicircular ribs and grooves, wherein the profile of a drive pulley or of a deflecting pulley is approximately complementary to the running surface of the belt. One or more tensile carriers are provided for each rib, wherein the tensile carriers are laid or stranded alternately in the “Z” direction and the “S” direction.

Abstract: A synthetic fiber cable has the strands of a strand layer mutually spaced apart. With the mutual spacing, the strands of the outer strand layer can move radially in the direction of the cable center and exert a radial pressure on the strands of the first inner strand layer. The radial pressure is passed on from the strands of the first inner strand layer to the strands of the second inner strand layer. The radial pressure is passed on from the strands of the second inner strand layer to the core strand. The radial pressure increases inwardly from strand layer to strand layer. The soft cable sheathing does not act as a support between the strands in circumferential direction.

Abstract: A cam mechanism for periodically swiveling a swivel device includes a rotatable first cam disk carrying a first cam serving as a main cam, a rotatable second cam disk carrying a second cam serving as an auxiliary cam, a first roller engaging the first cam under spring force and rollable on the first cam during rotation of the first cam disk, a second roller engaging the second cam under spring force and rollable on the second cam during rotation of the second cam disk, and a lever arrangement swivelable by the two rollers and having at least one spring for providing the spring force, including a swivel lever swivelable about a swivel axis and carrying the first roller, a swiveling movement corresponding to the first cam being impresable by the swivel lever upon the swivel device, the swivel axis and the two rollers having axes of rotation extending parallel to one another, and normals to the axes of rotation of the two rollers intersecting one another on the axis of rotation of the swivel axis and forming and

Abstract: Transmission system for forming cyclical motion from rotational motion including a device having a rotating part and at least one control lever set into cyclical motion by rotational motion of the rotating part, the one control lever and the rotating part being in cooperative engagement whereby a varying force is applied to the control lever producing a torque fluctuation in the rotational motion, includes another device for producing cyclical motion, the other device being in operative engagement with the rotating part, and spring means for applying a force to the rotating part so as to compensate for the torque fluctuation.

Abstract: High-pressure mercury vapor discharge lamp containing rare gas, mercury, sodium halide and at least one halide of at least one of the rare earth metals Ce, Pr, Nd and Lu. The lamp is suitable for a nominal power in the range from 10 to 2000 W. The molar ratio of rare earth metal to sodium, Ln:Na, has a value from 1:20 to 1:1 and the quantity of mercury, A, has a value from 2 to 100 mg/cm.sup.3. Ln:Na and A have in these ranges a low value for lamps having a high value of the power, and higher values according as the nominal power of the lamp has a lower value.

Abstract: Metallic halide high-pressure gas discharge lamp whose filling contains elementary arsenic during operation.

Abstract: To obtain an iron spectral lamp iron iodide and hydrogen are introduced into a discharge lamp.
