Abstract: The present invention relates to certain SGLT-2 inhibitors for treating and/or preventing oxidative stress, for example in patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes, as well as to the use of such SGLT-2 inhibitors in treatment and/or prevention of cardiovascular diseases in patients, for example type 1 or type 2 diabetes patients. The present invention further relates to certain SGLT-2 inhibitors for treating and/or preventing a metabolic disorder and preventing, reducing the risk of or delaying the occurrence of a cardiovascular event in patients, for example patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for biogas extraction. The method includes obtaining a set of images that includes a field of view encompassing at least a portion of the flexible roof and a background; generating a sample region having a first end overlapping only the flexible roof and a second end overlapping only the background; determining an average pixel color of an end slice located at the first end or the second end of the sample region; determining, based on the average pixel color of the end slice of the sample region, a fill percentage of the sample region attributed to an object overlapped by the end slice; estimating an amount of inflation of the flexible roof based on the fill percentage and a correlation between fill percentages of the sample region and predetermined amounts of inflation included in calibration data; and controlling extraction of the biogas based on the estimation.

Abstract: A magnetic resonance imaging system (1) includes at least one processor (28) configured to receive (48) diffusion weighted imaging data based on a diffusion weighted imaging sequence with magnetic gradient fields applied in different directions and with different b-values. The at least one processor (28) is further configured to detect (50) motion corrupted data present in the received imaging data based on a comparison of data redundant in the received data, and substitute (52) alternative data for detected motion corrupted data.

Abstract: A clamp device includes a clamp portion defining a threaded opening therein. The clamp portion is configured to contact a first side of a beam. The clamp device also includes a threaded fastener configured for insertion into the threaded opening via a hole defined within the decompression panel. The clamp device causes the decompression panel to contact a second side of the beam when the threaded fastener is tightened within the threaded opening.

Abstract: A probe unit (100) including a magnet (102, 103) generates a static magnetic B0 field in an examination region and a RF coil (105). An input-output module (201) includes a transmitter (203) which controls the RF coil (105) to excite resonance and cause echoes (210) and a receiver (204) which demodulates and digitizes the echoes (210). A data processing module (206) includes at least one processor programmed to calculate a T2 relaxation distribution plot from a digitized echo (210) train, calculate a first area under the fat peak on the T2 distribution plot, calculate a second area under a water peak on the T2 distribution plot, and normalize the first and second area to determine a fat-to-water ratio.

Abstract: A method of installing and replacing a plurality of decompression panels into a sidewall assembly of an aircraft includes coupling a first decompression panel to at least one of a sidewall and a floor panel of the sidewall assembly. The method also includes inserting a tab of the first decompression panel into a slot of a second decompression panel. The slot is defined by a flange extending along a surface of the second decompression panel. The method further includes coupling the second decompression panel to at least one of a sidewall and a floor panel of the sidewall assembly.

Abstract: A hatch assembly for use in a vehicle is provided. The hatch assembly includes a hatch structure including an upper portion and a lower portion, an armrest support rail coupled to the hatch structure and defining a shade slot between the hatch structure and the armrest support rail, and a shade sized for insertion through the shade slot. The shade is configured to selectively translate between the upper portion and the lower portion of the hatch structure through the shade slot.

Abstract: A decompression panel for use in an aircraft assembly that includes a body portion including a top edge and a bottom edge, and a front surface and a rear surface opposing the front surface. A plurality of openings are formed in the body portion, and a first stiffening member is formed on the rear surface below the plurality of openings. The first stiffening member extends from the rear surface towards the top edge such that the plurality of openings are at least partially obstructed by the first stiffening member.

Abstract: A decompression panel includes a body portion having a first end and a second end opposing the first end. The decompression panel also includes a tab extending along the first end and a flange coupled to the body portion. The flange defines a slot adjacent the second end. The decompression panel is secured in an airplane cabin by the tab and slot features, such that unwanted access to areas behind such panels is prevented.
