  • Publication number: 20240148314
    Abstract: The present invention provides a pillow for performing roll maneuvers, wherein a subject performs the roll maneuver by following a set of instructions specified on the pillow. The pillow includes one or more segments that are sequentially arranged, wherein the pillow can be folded and unfolded at a central section along a vertical axis using a connecting element. Each segment of the one or more segments, with the set of instructions, is contoured on either side of a horizontal axis of the surface of the pillow. The set of instructions allows the subject to perform the roll maneuvers, which causes debris present in any position in the horizontal canal of the inner ear of the subject to move towards an utricle.

  • Patent number: 9045739
    Abstract: A synthetic, soluble, endogenous complex formed from at least one component A and at least one component B, whereby component A comprises a binding domain for extra-cellular surface structures that internalize upon binding of component A of said complex, and component B has a constitutive catalytic kinase activity and effects cell biosynthesis/signalling including cell death after internalization. The complex allows to influence the growth and the physiology of cells. In particular said complex, nucleic acid molecules encoding it, cells transfected or transformed with these nucleic acid molecules are usable for the preparation of medicaments for the treatment of proliferative diseases, inflammatory diseases, allergies and autoimmune diseases.

  • Patent number: 8399200
    Abstract: A process is disclosed which enables the establishing of comprehensive immunoglobulin-specific reaction profiles of subjects with disorders of the immune function by the individual V gene repertoire of Ig-expressing B cells. The process comprises the isolation of B cells from body fluids, the isolation of individual B cells and their genetic material, the amplification of nucleic acids coding the variable regions of an antibody expressed by a B cell, the recombinant preparation of antibodies by expressing the amplificates, and the determination of the binding capability of the recombinant antibody to antigens.

  • Patent number: 6646749
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for the optical measurement of dental objects (30) with the use of topometric measurement procedures, having a rotatably mounted object receptacle (18) for holding the object (30) to be measured, a projector (11) for the projection of structured lighting patterns onto the object (30), a detection unit (12) for the detection of lighting structures projected onto the object (30), and an evaluation unit (20) for the calculation of the spatial structure of the object (30) to be measured. In order to improve operability, with the possibility of measuring individual parts of any geometry, the object receptacle (18) is mounted so as to be additionally pivotable around a pivot axis (B) arranged perpendicularly to the axis of rotation (A).
