Abstract: A device configured to administer a medication can comprise a lower housing that includes a housing latch. The device can further comprise a needle guard that is movable relative to the lower housing along a first direction from a first position to a second position so as to expose a needle, and an upper housing supported relative to the lower housing. The upper housing can be configured to move with respect to the lower housing along a second direction from a pre-use position to a dispensed position. The housing latch can releasably interfere with the upper housing when the upper housing is in the pre-use position so as to prevent the upper housing from moving toward the dispensed position, and the movement of the needle guard toward the second position, causes the interference to be removed, thereby allowing the upper housing to move toward the second position.

Abstract: Disclosed is a device for the parenteral delivery of a medication, such as a drug. The device includes upper and lower housings in which the upper housing is configured to move relative to the lower housing as a result of application of an external force to permit the user of the device to control the rate at which the drug is administered.

Abstract: The invention relates to 2-methylene-5-substituted-methylenecyclopentanone derivatives of formula I, and the use thereof. The derivatives of formula I as active components are useful for preparing a medicine for the treatment and/or prevention of cancer diseases such as breast cancer, lung cancer, colon cancer, rectal cancer, stomach cancer, prostate cancer, bladder cancer, uterus cancer, pancreatic cancer and ovary cancer. The active compounds of the invention may be used as an anticancer drug alone or used in combination with one or more other antitumor drugs. A combined therapy can be carried out by administrating each therapeutic component concurrently, subsequently or separately.

Abstract: A device for delivery of a substance to the olfactory region is described. The device includes a nosepiece and an elongate tubular member slidably disposed within the nosepiece for movement between a retracted position and an extended position. The tubular member is in flow communication with a reservoir containing the substance to be delivered. During use, the tubular member extends from the device, to direct the substance toward the olfactory region.

Abstract: An electro-polishing fixture for polishing stents which incorporates multiple anodes in contact with the stent and a center cathode disposed coaxially within the interior of the stent and a curved exterior cathode disposed about the perimeter of the stent. The invention further includes an electrolyte solution adapted for polishing stents composed of nickel-titanium alloy and a method of using the electrolyte in combination with the electro-polishing fixture.
