    摘要: A staging method and means for both device read and update write operations in which messages and commands between a storage subsystem and a fixed-block formatted RAID array emulating a variable-length record (CKD) formatted device for both read and write operations are evaluated to ascertain whether the record addressing was random and truly in record mode. If they are in that mode, then partial track staging by the RAID array control from the fixed-block formatted HDDs to a subsystem cache or the like would reduce device contention by reading and staging less than full track.

    摘要: A method and means within a hierarchical, demand/response DASD subsystem of the passive fault management type in which, upon the occurrence of fault, error, or erasure, a long device busy signal of finite duration is provided to a host CPU. Any DASD storage device subject to the anomaly is isolated from any host inquiry during this interval. These measures permit retry or other recovery procedures to be implemented transparent to the host and the executing application. This avoids premature declarations of faults, errors, or erasures and consequent host application aborts and other catastrophic measures. If the detected anomaly is not resolved within the allotted time, then other data recovery procedures can be invoked including device reset, the status reported to the host, and the next request processed.

    摘要: The present invention provides a prophylactic light activated treatment method for subjects at risk of a plaque-mediated thrombotic event, such as acute coronary syndromes. In one embodiment, the subject receives a dose of photosensitizer sufficient to result in a concentration of photosensitizer in the neovascularization associated with atherosclerotic disease to permit effective photodynamic therapy. Light of a wavelength that excites the photosensitizer, but that does not to any significant extent penetrate to an adventitial layer of the blood vessel, is applied to the region of the blood vessel. The therapeutic light dose, which may be applied in sequential stages, is sufficient to cause closure of neovasculature leakage and lead to plaque stabilization and reduced adverse clinical outcomes. The present invention further provides light transmission devices and systems useful in carrying out the methods of the present invention.

    摘要: The efficacy of light activated therapy treatment is enhanced by stimulating the immune system of the patient substantially above the pre-therapy level. Abnormal tissue that is destroyed by the light activated therapy releases factors that stimulate the immune system, leading to systemic reductions in abnormal tissue (i.e., reduction beyond the area treated using light), so long as the light therapy conditions favor apoptosis over necrosis. The volume of abnormal tissue destroyed is maximized to the extent possible, reducing tumor load, which reduces an amount of immunosuppressive factors in the body, enabling stimulation of the immune system to be successful.

    摘要: The efficacy of light activated therapy treatment is enhanced by use of additional therapeutic agents. Abnormal tissue is destroyed by light activated therapy, and the associated administration of one or more additional therapeutic agents can synergistically enhance the therapy. For example, the concepts disclosed herein encompass the use of the following agents in combination with light activated drug therapy: (1) agents that selectively inhibit heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90); (2) agents that inhibit the Hedgehog pathway (which is believed to play a central role in allowing the proliferation and survival of certain cancer-causing cells, and which is implicated in many of the most deadly cancers); and, (3) agents for reducing the anti-apoptotic effects of Bcl-2 or Bcl-xL. These agents can be used with light activated drug therapy individually, or in various combinations and permutations.

    摘要: A photosensitizer suitable for use in administering photodynamic therapy (PDT), conjugated with antibodies that are targeted to antigens on abnormal tissue and polyethylene glycol (PEG) or other polymer that extends the residence time of the conjugate within a patient's body. The resulting pegylated targeted conjugate is administered to a patient, and after the antibodies have had sufficient time to bind with the antigens, light from an external or internal source having a waveband corresponding to an absorption waveband of the photosensitizer is administered. Use of an external light source that emits relatively long wavelength light enables the light to pass through any intervening dermal layer and normal tissue between the external light source and the treatment site. Since the photosensitizer in the conjugate is bound to the abnormal tissue, the light therapy has minimal effect on the intervening normal tissue. Furthermore, the efficacy of the PDT is enhanced due to the increased concentration of the photosensitizer of the conjugate linked to the abnormal tissue.
