Abstract: A diametrically adjustable endoprosthesis includes a controlled expansion element extending along at least a portion of a graft and is supported by a stent. The controlled expansion element diametrically constrains and limits expansion of the endoprosthesis. Upon deployment from a smaller, delivery configuration, the endoprosthesis can expand to the initial diameter set by the controlled expansion element. Thereafter, the endoprosthesis can be further diametrically expanded (e.g., using balloon dilation) by mechanically altering the controlled expansion element.

The policy node transmits, to a mobility node, access information indicating which geographical areas comprised in the mobile communications network the UE is allowed or denied access to.

Abstract: A method for producing nanostructures having a metal oxide shell, carried by a top face of a substrate whose greatest dimension is greater than or equal to 100 mm by MOCVD metalorganic chemical vapour deposition, including successive steps carried out in a reactor configured for MOCVD deposition of nucleation and growth. The nucleation step includes forming non-contiguous metal nuclei by depositing a metal by MOCVD using a metalorganic precursor on the top face of the substrate and oxidising the metal of the metal nuclei, to form oxidised nuclei and ensure stabilisation of the nuclei. The growth step includes depositing a metal by MOCVD using the metalorganic precursor, to form non-contiguous nanostructures by growth of the oxidised nanostructures, and oxidising the deposited metal of the nanostructures formed in the nucleation to form oxidised nanostructures.

Abstract: The apparatus of the present invention serves to stun animals prior to slaughter, these being introduced with a gondola into a pit. On a sidewall of the pit is/are designed a gas module, preferably a plurality of gas modules. Each gas module comprises a gas introduction line having a multitude of pores through which an anaesthetic gas can flow laterally into the pit. The multitude of pores ensures a laminar inflow of the anaesthetic gas. The lateral laminar inflow of the anaesthetic gas avoids an increase in the stress of the animals being stunned, thus enabling humane stunning prior to slaughter. At the same time, the modular construction by means of the gas modules facilitates simple dimensioning of the gas introduction capacities required and also the construction and retrofitting of corresponding apparatuses.
