Abstract: A toggle-type suture anchor that incorporates individual suture tensioning and locking without knot tying. The anchor includes an elongate toggle body having a working suture pre-threaded into a first passage and back up and out a second passage with a length running longitudinally adjacent the side of the anchor. A locking suture loop is pre-threaded into a third passage between the first and second passage and includes a collapsible loop that encircles a portion of the length of suture running longitudinally adjacent the side of the anchor. With the loop open, the working suture can slide through the anchor, however, when the loop is closed the working suture is locked in position to retain tension on the working suture. The anchor can be utilized in a pre-strung connected array of anchors.

Abstract: Cartridges configured to hold anchors and associated locking sutures and a common suture used in an array of anchors. A suture anchor array is connected in series by a single working suture and each of the suture anchors allows tensioning of the working suture between itself and the prior anchor implanted in the serial string. Further, each anchor includes a suture lock having a free tail that can be pulled to lock the working suture in place subsequent to tensioning. This creates an independently tensioned suture bridge between each implanted suture anchor and the just previously implanted anchor. The cartridges are configured to securely hold an individual anchor and store the tail of the suture lock, while allowing flossing of anchors along the common suture.

Abstract: A medicinal drug is administered to a person for treating allergic rhinitis, hemorrhoids, toothache, bromhidrosis, or urticaria. The medicinal drug is formed at least partially with salt of peroxymonosulfuric acid, preferably potassium hydrogen peroxymonosulfate.

Abstract: Products based on salt of peroxymonosulfuric acid are suitable for treating or/and preventing diseases and other debilitating medical conditions caused by bacterial, eukaryotic, prion, and viral pathogens and by non-pathogenic inflammation. The products may alternatively be based on inorganic halide and an oxidizing agent reactable in water with the inorganic halide to generate hypohalite ions. In addition, the products can be employed in other applications such as commercial and industrial applications.

Abstract: A medicinal drug is administered to a person for treating a medical condition of the person or/and for preventing the person from contracting the medical condition. The medical condition can be a bacterial infection, a eukaryotic infection, a prion-caused infection, a non-pathogenic inflammation, and, insofar as not covered by any of these four types of the medical condition, a fungal infection, a spore-caused infection, and a parasitic infection. A medicinal drug is similarly administered non-topically to a person for treating a virus-caused medical condition of the person or/and for preventing the person from contracting the virus-caused medical condition. The medicinal drug is typically formed at least partially with salt of peroxymonosulfuric acid, preferably potassium hydrogen peroxymonosulfate.
