Abstract: A gird compression hip tensioning garment designed to provide compressive support extending throughout the acetabulofemoral and mid-gluteal portions of a wearer's lower torso so as to help relieve pain and to help promote healing from muscular/skeletal ailments and injuries of the mid-body of a wearer. This gird compression garment is constructed of a resiliently flexible and stretchable material and includes a ligature panel extending from approximately the sacrum of the spine of the wearer to the base of the gluteus medius, and a fastening device adapted to vary the amount of compressive force exerted by the garment.

Abstract: A method for preventing a first network node from missing a transmission from a second network node. The method includes, when a ten millisecond periodicity is used for Multicast/Broadcast Single Frequency Network (MBSFN) subframes, setting a time between an uplink grant from the second network node to the first network node and an acknowledgement/negative-acknowledgement message (ACK/NACK) from the second network node to the first network node equal to ten milliseconds. The method further includes, when a forty millisecond periodicity is used for MBSFN subframes, the second network node sending the first network node an asynchronous grant for an uplink retransmission when a data packet is missed, and when the first network node receives the grant for the uplink retransmission, the first network node retransmitting the missed data packet.

Abstract: A method for providing user agent data. The method includes an access node receiving an indicator sent from a relay node as an indication that the relay node has received data from the user agent.

Abstract: A method for informing a relay node when to receive data. The method includes the relay node being informed of a fixed point in a subframe of data when an access node will begin transmitting relevant data over a physical downlink shared channel. The method further includes the relay node beginning to receive data at approximately the fixed point.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are minimally invasive systems and method for stabilizing the spine, while preserving a degree of spinal flexion and extension of the spine at the level of the stabilized vertebrae postoperatively. The systems and methods can include an expandable anchor and rod that span an intervertebral disc. The anchor can have interstices, and ends in two adjacent vertebral bodies. The system can also include a volume of bone cement media.

Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling sounding reference signal transmission are provided; a user equipment starts transmitting the sounding reference signal in anticipation of uplink data transmission, and then discontinues transmitting the sounding reference signal after completion of uplink data transmission.

Abstract: An assembly for a turbine engine comprises a circumferential band defining an air flow path, a component having a leading edge and extending from the band into the flow path, and a trough located in a surface of the band along the leading edge.

Abstract: A gird compression garment designed to provide compressive support extending throughout the cervical and thoracic portions of the wearer's spine so as to help relieve pain and to help promote healing from muscular/skeletal ailments and injuries. This gird compression garment is constructed of a resiliently flexible and stretchable material and includes a cervical collar that extends to the base of the skull of a wearer and a fastening device adapted to vary the amount of compressive force exerted by the garment.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed towards having a user interface that displays a number of cards or windows. A user can implement a command where the user interface will automatically change the position of the displayed cards to show regions of interest which are the parts of the cards that a user may have interested in. The user interest can be determined in accordance with user preference information. Optionally, cards which do not have regions of interest are removed from a display area and such cards are replaced with new cards that do have regions of interest.
