Abstract: Device for draining liquids for an aircraft engine, comprising a collector designed to collect liquids drained from the engine, said device comprising means for pumping the liquids held in the collector and for discharging said liquids, and monitoring means designed to indicate when the liquids have been collected by the collector in an anomalous manner, said monitoring means being designed to be activated when the flow rate of collected liquids is greater than the delivery of the pumping means.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for determining sensitivity to a cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor in a human subject having breast cancer, the method comprising determining in a sample from the subject the level of expression of 11 genes as defined in the claims. The present invention further provides kits of parts, nucleic acid arrays, and uses thereof for determining sensitivity to a CDK4/6 inhibitor in a human subject having breast cancer. The present invention also relates to methods of treating a human subject having breast cancer, comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of the CDK4/6 inhibitor to the subject.

Abstract: Device (10) for draining liquids for an aircraft engine (1), comprising a collector (11) designed to collect liquids drained from the engine, characterised in that said device comprises means (13, 19) for pumping the liquids held in the collector and for discharging said liquids, and monitoring means (14) designed to indicate when the liquids have been collected by the collector in an anomalous manner, said monitoring means being designed to be activated when the flow rate of collected liquids is greater than the delivery of the pumping means.

Abstract: A compound comprising a peptide moiety comprising, consisting essentially of, or consisting of, the peptide sequence of a tyrosine cluster YC of the BY-kinase of a Gram positive or Gram negative bacteria, or a fragment or an analogue thereof, and an adenine peptide analogue PNA(A), whereas the peptide moiety and the PNA are linked together. The compound is useful as an inhibitor of bacterial tyrosine kinase.

Abstract: A method for ground control of proper operation of an aeronautical turbine engine for a plane. A test includes carrying out, on the operating turbine engine and from a predetermined speed, a quick reduction in fuel flow according to a programmed decrease to evaluate flame-out resistance of the combustion chamber of the turbine engine during a quick inflight deceleration maneuver of the speed thereof.

Abstract: A method that includes steps of providing an interface that permits a user to at least partially specify an appearance and content of graphics, generating the graphics, accessing a video stream, mixing the graphics with the video stream without changing a size and aspect ratio of the video stream, and presenting the graphics mixed with the video stream to the user on an end-user device. Also, devices that implement the method and associated uses and techniques.

Abstract: A sealable casing having a quarter-turn closing arrangement including a tubular body defining an orifice at one end having radially projecting arcuate members and clearances formed along an inner periphery thereof. The casing further includes a cap having radially projecting arcuate members and clearances formed along its inner periphery that are complementary to arcuate members and clearances of the tubular body. A hoop member is connected to the cap and includes a plurality of extensions that are biased by at least one resilient member connected to the cap so as to press against the inner Periphery of the tubular body. The extensions are connected to a drive handle mounted underneath a bail of the cap and cooperate with the at least one resilient member.

Abstract: The stator shroud is made up of components (2) juxtaposed so as to form circumferences, which are successive and assembled separately to a common housing which surrounds them. Characteristically, the assembly is made with only one single fixing point (7) per component (2), while being completed by a support point (21) sliding along the circumference. The result is a more flexible component assembly and a more even distortion, which allows better control of the clearances between the shroud and the rotor blades it surrounds.

Abstract: A sealable casing having a quarter-turn closing arrangement including a basic body defining an orifice at one end having radially projecting arcuate members and clearances formed along thereof. The casing further includes a cap having radially projecting arcuate members and clearances formed along thereof. The arcuate members and clearances of the cap are complementary to the arcuate members and clearances of the casing body and combine to define a bayonet sub-assembly. Extensions extend from the cap and are biased by resilient elements which permit locking the cap in a closed position. The extensions are secured to a drive handle mounted underneath a bail of the cap.
