Abstract: A perimeter safety system used in pre-engineered metal building or roof system construction. The perimeter safety system includes a plurality of perimeter safety stands. Each perimeter safety stand has a main leg, a lateral support leg, and a perimeter leg. The lateral support leg and the perimeter leg may also be telescoping. The lower end of the main leg, lateral support leg and perimeter leg are each affixed to a panel foot. Each panel foot is capable of being detachably secured to a substructure and capable of being positioned between corrugations of an exposed fastener roof panel or detachably secured to a standing seam of a concealed fastener roof panel. The plurality of perimeter safety stands are interconnected with safety lines.

Abstract: This invention provides compounds of Formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein G1, Q, D, and G2 are as defined above for Formula I. Compounds of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, are inhibitors of MMP-13. The compounds are useful for treating diseases mediated by MMP-13, including the diseases recited herein such as breast cancer, cartilage damage, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoarthritis.

Abstract: A compound selected from those of formula (I): wherein W1 represents O, S, or —NR3 in which R3 represents hydrogen, alkyl, OH or CN; W2 represents a group selected from hydrogen, CF3, NH2, monoalkylamino, dialkylamino, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, arylalkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, heterocycle, these groups being optionally substituted, or W1 and W2 form together a group of formula —N?X4—W3— as defined in the description, X1, X2 and X3 represent N or C optionally substituted, n is 0 to 8, Z represents —CR12R13, wherein R12 and R13 are as defined in the description, A represents a ring system, the groups R2 represent hydrogen or various chemical groups as defined in the description, q is 0 to 7; R1 represents hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, or a ring system, and optionally, its optical isomers, N-oxide, and addition salts thereof with a pharmaceutically-acceptable acid or base, and medicinal products containing the same are useful as specific inhibitors of type-13 matrix metalloprotease.

Abstract: This invention relates to a pyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidine derivative of Formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein R1, L1, L2, V, L3, and R2 are as defined in the specification, that inhibits a matrix metalloproteinase-13 enzyme and thus is useful for treating diseases resulting from MMP-13 mediated tissue breakdown such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, cartilage damage, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, heart failure, atherosclerosis, inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, age-related macular degeneration, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, periodontal diseases, psoriasis, cancer, and osteoporosis.
