Abstract: Methods of detecting pipeline weakening are described herein. The methods include creating a pressure wave in a fluid flowing in a pipeline using an input transducer located at a first position along the pipeline; measuring the pressure wave using an output transducer positioned at a second position along the pipeline that is spaced from the first position, and generating an output signal based on the pressure wave; analyzing the output signal to determine a stiffness of a sidewall of the pipeline positioned between the input transducer and output transducer; and determining if the sidewall includes a defect based on the stiffness of the sidewall, including analyzing a frequency response of the output signal to detect the defect.

Abstract: Novel airway devices and methods address complications of ventilating a patient with a mask; placing an endotracheal tube in an awake patient; and need for a bite block during flexible bronchoscopy and gastroscopy. The airway device features notches for engaging maxillary and mandibular teeth in a manner protracting the patient's mandible relative to the maxilla to open up the airway. This way, an open airway is easily maintained simply by holding the jaw closed against the device with the same hand used to operate a bag ventilator. A longitudinal channel in the device features a downwardly curved end wall for improved guidance of the endoscope into position. The channel is open sided at the top or bottom to allow rolling of the airway device off the endoscope into an offset position serving as a protective bite block and allowing feeding of the endotracheal tube along the endoscope.

Abstract: A X-ray source, comprising a laser, of a pulse duration of at most 40 fs, instantaneous power of at least about 80 TW, a pulse repetition rate of at least 1 Hz; an optical compressor spectrally shaping the laser beam; focusing optics in the range between f#10 and f#15; and a gas target of electron density after ionization by the laser beam in a range between 1018 cm3 and 1019 cm−3; wherein the focusing optics focuses the laser beam in the gas target, and interaction of the focused laser beam with the gas target generates an X-ray beam, with a focused laser amplitude a0, given by a0=0.855 [IL (1018W/cm2)λL,2 (μm)]1/2, where IL is the on-target laser intensity and λL is the laser wavelength, of at least 2 and a P/Pc ratio value of at least 20, with P being the beam power and Pc a critical power given by Pc=17 (nc/n) GW where n is the electron density and nc is a critical electron density at which the plasma acts as a mirror reflecting the laser beam.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for detecting a brain injury in a subject by comparing the amount of ADAM10 protein in a blood sample from the subject to a reference standard or to the amount of ADAM10 in a blood sample from a control. An increase in the amount of ADAM10 in the subject blood sample relative to the reference standard or control is indicative of the subject having sustained a brain injury, in particular a traumatic brain injury (TBI). The present disclosure also provides novel antibody and antibody fragments that bind to ADAM10 at different positions.

Abstract: An Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR, HER1, ErbB1)-binding agent has a heavy chain and a light chain, wherein the dimerization loop from EGFR's Domain II is grafted within complementarity determining region 3 (CDR3) of the heavy chain, and the binding agent is affinity matured. The graft directs the binding agent to bind EGFR at its dimerization region, to thereby inhibit EGFR dimerization and activation. In another embodiment, an EGFR-binding agent is panned out of Library F, a Fab library. The binding agents are for detecting and/or quantifying EGFR expression, for targeting EGFR-expressing cells, and for decreasing levels of EGFR in EGFR-expressing cells.
