  • Patent number: 11934858
    Abstract: A system for isolating requests that comprises, a shared command queue, a first virtual computational resource and a second virtual computational resources. The first virtual computational resources comprises a policy engine configured to access policies comprising criteria for assigning commands corresponding to requests from tenants to compartments, determine, according to the policies, compartments to which to assign the commands corresponding to the requests, produce the commands corresponding to the requests, and queue the commands in the shared command queue, each command comprising compartment assignment information.

  • Publication number: 20220229077
    Abstract: Provided herein are methods for diagnosing a psychotic disorder, such as schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder or psychosis, predicated on a determination of a methylation phenotype of the subject based in part on the identity of a specific polymorphism in the MTHFR gene and the analysis of a suite of biomarkers and other functional measures and indices. Also provided herein are methods for predicting prognosis and functional outcomes for subjects having a psychotic disorder, and for treating subjects having a psychotic disorder.

  • Patent number: 7556055
    Abstract: In one embodiment, the invention provides a rupture disk assembly having a rupture disk and a rupture disk holder. The rupture disk holder has a first annular member downstream of the rupture disk, a second annular member upstream of the rupture disk, and an optional third annular member upstream of the second annular member. An outer peripheral portion of the rupture disk is sandwiched between the first and second annular members; and, if a third annular member is present, (a) the second annular member is sandwiched between the outer peripheral portion of the rupture disk and the third annular member, and (b) the third annular member includes a fluid port aimed at the rupture disk. However, if the third annular member is not present, the second annular member includes a fluid port aimed at the rupture disk.

  • Patent number: 7086545
    Abstract: A support for a predetermined container having a rim e.g. at its top opening, the support comprising a lid or a supporting ring, constructed to interfit e.g. with the rim of the container, wherein there is a suspender, formed with the lid or supporting ring and deflectable from an as-formed position to an upstanding position in which it is capable of carrying weight of the container. In most cases suspenders extend inwardly of a rim of the lid or supporting ring. Free-ended flexible finger suspenders of synthetic resin, are shown, formed integrally with the lid or supporting ring as a molded unit. The lids or rings are associated with closure surfaces, such as closure portions molded with the lid or ring, closure inserts, or closure films or foils on the container itself. The suspenders are useful to the consumer in enabling improved carrying of the merchandise with other items or in intertwined fusion with the like items, and to the storekeeper in suspending merchandise.

  • Patent number: 6277846
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for treating pruritus by administering a therapeutically effective amount of a PAF antagonist to a mammal afflicted with pruritus. The PAF antagonists may, for example, be selected from synthetic PAF analogues, natural products isolated from plants having PAF antagonist activity, and triazolobenzodiazepines. The PAF antagonists are preferably applied topically to the afflicted site but systemic such as oral, parenteral, nasal and intrarectal administration, is also possible.
