the invention relates to a chronic articular inflammation - modulating composition which uses collagen - polyvinylpyrrolidone . collagen turnover is modulated using collagen - pvp in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis , since the biocomplex negatively regulates collagenolytic activity and increases the content of type iii collagen and timp - 1 to levels similar to those observed in normal synovia . in this way , the chronic inflammatory process is altered by the collagen - pvp , as described above , owing to the negative regulation of il - 1β , the tnf - α of il - 8 and the adhesion molecules , since said molecules can induce the expression and activation of collagenolytic enzymes , as well as the proliferation and migration of synovial cells by means of the adhesive mechanisms including the adhesion molecules , and the induction and activation of cox - 1 . in addition to cellular anchoring , the interaction of the extracellular matrix integrins generates signals which regulate the expression of m mps , suggesting that the adhesion molecules can also play a part in tissue destruction associated with rheumatoid arthritis . moreover , the decrease in the synthesis of tnf - α and il - 1β appears to stimulate the cell death of synoviocytes by means of apoptosis , which , in turn , seems to contribute to the inhibition of the proliferation of synovial cells , the formation of pannus and the destruction of the articular tissue .

in recovering data originally written on a carrier of magnetic media after a catastrophic failure , data may be read without prior knowledge of the write channel by which the data was originally written and in the presence of intersymbol interference of the readback signal . this is accomplished by forming an image of the spatial response function of the magnetoresistive transducer used to recover the data and by forming an image of the raw data read from the carrier of magnetic media by the magnetoresistive transducer for which the response function has been characterized . an image of the distribution of virtual magnetic charge on the carrier of magnetic media is obtained through deconvolution of the image of the response function of the magnetoresistive transducer and the raw readback signal . the readback signal corresponding to the data originally written on the carrier of magnetic media is then recovered by spatial differentiation of the image of virtual magnetic charge . further improvement in image quality of the resulting image is accomplished through a noise reduction technique such as by the application of an arctangent function to the data prior to differentiation .
