Abstract: An independent eye-mounted device includes a display that projects pixels onto a retina of a user's eye. The device also includes a memory storing an application, and a processing device coupled to the memory to execute the application. The application populates a canvas with images of rendered graphic objects used by the application. The device further includes a real-time graphics module that, repeatedly and in real-time, transfers the images of the rendered graphic objects from the canvas to the display.

Abstract: A system and method for collaborative activity support is provided. A server establishes a collaboration place that is accessible by a plurality of remote clients and supports a plurality of collaboration activities. The server can be configured to provide primary display data to each of a plurality of client computers associated with the authorized users simultaneously accessing the collaboration place to cause each of the plurality of clients to display the primary display data in a primary display of a corresponding collaboration place interface. Responsive to detecting a request from a first collaboration place interface at a first client computer of the plurality of client computers to include a secondary display with the primary display in the corresponding collaboration place interface, wherein the secondary display is configured to display collaboration place data associated with a different collaborative activity than the primary display prior to escalation.

Abstract: A pressure relief mechanism is incorporated into a modified syringe-type inflation device that may be coupled to a balloon catheter for inflating and deflating the balloon. An engagement mechanism selectively engages and disengages from a threaded shaft for advancing or withdrawing a plunger placed in slidable, yet sealing fit within a cylindrical chamber. In a first engaging position, the threaded shaft may be forcibly advanced or withdrawn in the cylindrical chamber, while in a second disengaged position, the plunger may be quickly pulled back.

Abstract: A process is provided for preparing novel crystalline forms, namely selectively and consistently preparing the H2-1 dihydrate crystalline form, the H2-2 dihydrate crystalline form, the N-3 anhydrate crystalline form and the MTBE solvate crystalline form of the IKur compound (2S)-1-[[(7R)-7-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-4,7-dihydro-5-methylpyrazolo[1,5]pyrimidine-6-yl]carbonyl]-2-(4-fluorophenyl)pyrrolidine. The process includes preparation of the H2-1 and H2-2 forms which are used in preparing the N-3 anhydrate form which is particularly stable and has suitable flow properties and desired particle size. Novel H2-1 dihydrate and H2-2 dihydrate forms, the N-3 anhydrate form and the MTBE solvate form of the above IKur compound, pharmaceutical compositions containing such novel forms and a method for preventing or treating arrhythmias including atrial fibrillation and IKur related conditions employing such novel forms are also provided.
