Abstract: A method of attaching a projection to a thin walled component, the thin walled component having a first surface and an opposite second surface, the method comprises the steps of: (i) providing a thin walled component; (ii) identifying a first position on the first surface of the thin walled component; (iii) building a hollow thin walled lattice structure on the second surface at a second position using a liquid metal deposition process, the second position corresponding to the first position; and (iv) building a projection on the first surface at the first position using a liquid metal deposition process.

Abstract: A method for treating an immune-related disorder in a patient comprising administering an agent to the patient for altering the patient's plasma concentration of free cholesterol, wherein said agent is a non-statin agent and is administered in an amount sufficient to modulate the immune-related disorder.

Abstract: A system and method for assigning a disposition to a document through information flow knowledge is presented. Functional categories that each describe a type of document are defined. Information flow knowledge regarding a plurality of documents that each belong to different ones of the functional categories is captured. A procedure is defined for each of the functional categories including at least one disposition derived from the information flow knowledge, which is applicable to those documents belonging to the functional category. An input document is loaded from one of paper or electronic form. The input document is processed by evaluating characteristics to determine the functional category to which the input document most closely fits. Information is extracted from content contained in the input document. The procedure for the functional category of the input document to the information are applied and the disposition is related to the input document.
