Publication number: 20240108488Abstract: Systems and methods for effecting bariatric procedures are disclosed. Each system includes an instrument, a control valve and, optionally, a suction controller. The instrument is in the form of an elongated, flexible sizing tube having a distal end portion including a plurality of apertures. The control valve enables suction to be applied to the patient's stomach via the apertures to drain gastric fluids and to bring adjacent portions of the patient's stomach into engagement with the sizing tube to provide a visually perceptible delineation line along which a portion of the stomach may be resected, sealed and tested.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 8, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Inventors: Christopher L. Radl, Trevor Smith, John Karpowicz, Allison Lloyd

Patent number: 11938185Abstract: The present invention is directed to antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof having binding specificity for PACAP. The antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof comprise the sequences of the VH, VL, and CDR polypeptides described herein, and the polynucleotides encoding them. Antibodies and antigen binding fragments described herein bind to and/or compete for binding to the same linear or conformational epitope(s) on human PACAP as an anti-PACAP antibody. The invention contemplates conjugates of anti-PACAP antibodies and binding fragments thereof conjugated to one or more functional or detectable moieties. Methods of making said anti-PACAP antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof are also contemplated.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2020Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: H. LUNDBECK A/SInventors: Maria-Cristina Loomis, Leon F. Garcia-Martinez, Benjamin H. Dutzar, Daniel S. Allison, Katherine Lee Hendrix, Ethan W. Ojala, Pei Fan, Jeffrey T. L. Smith, John A.

Publication number: 20120248902Abstract: A power tool has a motor having a stator made by separately forming pole pieces and field coils. The field coils are placed over necks of the pole path pieces. An armature has an outside diameter of at least 0.625 the outside diameter of the stator is placed in the stator. The housing has a girth of 200 mm or less with the motor wound to provide a maximum watts out to housing girth ratio of at least 5 maximum watts outs to 1 mm of housing girth. The field coils may be formed so that they extend beyond pole tips of the pole pieces.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 22, 2012Publication date: October 4, 2012Applicant: Black & Decker Inc.Inventors: Hung T. Du, Earl M. Ortt, Brandon L. Verbrugge, Garrett P. McCormick, Michael A. Zemlock, Eric J. Samuelsen, Kevin M. Hogan, Jiaqi Zhang, Ren Hong Wang, Frank A. Mannarino, Allison A. Smith, Spencer G.
