Abstract: Methods of treating, preventing and/or managing macular degeneration are disclosed. Specific embodiments encompass the administration of 4-(amino)-2-(2,6-dioxo(3-piperidyl))-isoindoline-1,3-dione, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or stereoisomer thereof, alone or in combination with a second active agent and/or surgery.

Abstract: Methods of determining whether a jamming signal strength is adequate, comprising receiving a signal, determining first and second noise power levels of the signal in first and second ranges of frequencies, the first range being broader than and encompassing the second range, and calculating a ratio of the second noise power level divided by the first noise power level. Also, methods of determining whether a jamming signal strength is adequate, comprising receiving a signal, determining a phase difference between first and second frequency range phases of the signal, and calculating a statistical mean and/or a standard deviation of the phase difference. Also, systems for determining whether a jamming signal is adequate, computer-readable media for determining whether jamming signal strength is adequate, systems comprising means for transmitting a jamming signal, and systems comprising means for transmitting and receiving waveforms to users in the presence of protective jamming.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a group of compounds that effectively inhibit angiogenesis. More specifically, nitrogen-substituted thalidomide analogs and di-substituted thalidomide analogs have been shown to inhibit angiogenesis. Importantly, these compounds can be administered orally.
