Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutically compatible iron chelator or a prodrug thereof for use in treating and/or preventing cancer in a subject suspected or known to comprise hypoxic cancer cells, and use in treatment and/or prevention of a human papillomavirus (HPV) related lesion. The present invention further relates to a use of an iron chelator or prodrug thereof for inducing senescence in a cancer cell, preferably a hypoxic cancer cell; and to a method for inducing an irreversible proliferation arrest in cancer cells comprising a) contacting said cancer cells with an iron chelator or prodrug thereof and, thereby, b) inducing an irreversible proliferation arrest in said cancer cells.

Abstract: A method is provided for ensuring and/or checking the quality of a crimping using a crimping machine for crimping a cable with a contact sleeve and using a first optical sensor for detecting and/or recording first image data of the contact sleeve and using an evaluation electronics system. The method includes detecting the first image data of the contact sleeve by the first optical sensor; carrying out, via the evaluation electronics system, a first comparison of the first image data of the first optical sensor with first reference data of a predetermined contact sleeve; checking the first comparison for the presence of a predetermined first criterion; and, if the predetermined first criterion is satisfied, outputting a first signal. The detection of the first image data and the first comparison and the checking for the first criterion and the output of the first signal are carried out before the cable is crimped with the contact sleeve.

Abstract: A kite system having a kite (14) and a hauling rope (15) which extends between the kite (14) and a tow point (16). A marking holder (25) is disposed between the tow point (16) and the kite (14). The marking holder (25) is conceived for changing between an entrained state in relation to the hauling rope (15), and a free-running state in relation to the hauling rope (15). A fitting installation (31) initiates a changeover between the entrained state and the free-running state of the marking holder (25). The invention moreover relates to a method for operating a kite system.

Abstract: A mixer assembly for mixing two air streams in a ventilation system. The mixer assembly comprises a mixing chamber, which comprises an inlet and an outlet and a mixing chamber wall delimiting the mixing chamber, and also a shroud, which surrounds the mixing chamber wall, at least in certain portions. The shroud forms and delimits an intermediate space between the mixing chamber wall and the shroud. The mixer assembly also comprises a filter element, which fluidically connects the intermediate space to a surrounding area of the mixer assembly, the intermediate space being fluidically connected to the mixing chamber. Fluid can thus flow through the filter element into the intermediate space and further into the mixing chamber. A stowage space with a mixer assembly, an aircraft with such a stowage space and a method for producing a mixer assembly in an aircraft are also described.

Abstract: A midsole for an article of footwear including a three-dimensional mesh including interconnected unit cells and methods of making the same. The interconnected unit cells each include a plurality of struts defining a three-dimensional shape. The interconnected unit cells are connected at nodes having a valence number defined by the number of struts connected at that node. The valence number of the nodes may vary to provide customized characteristics to zones or portions of the midsole. The plurality of interconnected unit cells may be organized in a warped cubic lattice structure. The warped cubic lattice structure and the size/shape of interconnected unit cells may vary to provide customized characteristics to zones or portions of the midsole. The three-dimensional mesh may be customized based on a biometric data profile for an individual, or group of individuals. The midsole may be manufactured using an additive manufacturing process.

Abstract: A method for forming a semiconductor device includes providing a semiconductor substrate having an upper side and comprising, in a vertical cross-section substantially orthogonal to the upper side, a plurality of semiconductor mesas of a first monocrystalline semiconductor material which are spaced apart from each other by sacrificial layers selectively etchable with respect to the first monocrystalline semiconductor material and arranged in trenches extending from the upper side into the semiconductor substrate, forming on the semiconductor mesas a support structure mechanically connecting the semiconductor mesas, at least partly replacing the sacrificial layers while the semiconductor mesas remain mechanically connected via the support structure, and at least partly removing the support structure.
