Abstract: A method for detecting a voice activity in an input audio signal composed of frames includes that a noise characteristic of the input signal is determined based on a received frame of the input audio signal. A voice activity detection (VAD) parameter is derived based on the noise characteristic of the input audio signal using an adaptive function. The derived VAD parameter is compared with a threshold value to provide a voice activity detection decision. The input audio signal is processed according to the voice activity detection decision.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of tissue lesions. The inventors showed that CCR2 is expressed on FMCs, especially on a subpopulation of progenitor cells, that they call “fetal myeloid progenitor cells” (FMPCs), and mediates the recruitment of these cells to maternal wound tissue. Moreover, the inventors reported that recruited FMCs/FMPCs improve maternal skin wound healing by organizing blood vessel endothelium and secreting pro-angiogenesis peptides, particularly chemokine CXCL1, to enhance angiogenesis in wound. In particular, the present invention relates to CCR2 agonists for use in the treatment of tissue lesions in a subject in need thereof.

A downstream connector provides an interface between the porous section of the spray capillary, a conductive fluid, and a high voltage electrical source. The application of voltage to the downstream connector causes electrospray ionization, which can be used to draw ultra law volume samples into the inlet end.
