Abstract: An implant includes a tubular discontinuous structure formed of a plurality of webs that at least partially extend in a longitudinal direction. The plurality of webs includes at least one joint element having a main web substantially extending in the longitudinal direction. There is a continuous gap in the main web. At least one bridge web is arranged next to the main web in a circumferential direction (U) and connected to the main web in the longitudinal direction (A) in front of and behind the gap.

Abstract: A vascular implant, in particular a prosthetic heart valve, for providing valve function, has a stent structure with a proximal conical-convex inflow region, a distal, linear cylindrical outflow region, an intermediate transition region, and a corresponding valve arrangement. When the stent structure is in the expanded state, a higher maximum radial force exists in the inlet region in direct comparison to the lower maximum radial force in the outlet region and in the transition region.

Abstract: The invention relates to a self-climbing perimetric protection system with at least one module comprising two masts (1) spaced out from one another and formed by two vertical channel irons (1) with U-shaped cross section between which pairs of support elements (6, 7) are immobilized in different horizontal planes; a protection panel (2) attached to the masts; pairs of anchors (4) comprised by respective anchoring frames (11) coupled to guiding heads (10) each comprising two mobile horizontal claws (16) which, in the closed position, brace the mast (1); and a rotational bearing rocker (13, 13?) in a vertical plane between a position in which its front part (13) is rotated and supports a support element (6, 7) and a position in which it is rotated downwardly in which it allows the passage of the support elements (6, 7), the pairs of anchors being immobilized at different heights in a part of a building (5, 9) in which they support a pair of support elements (6, 7).
