A vena cava filter is described, having one or more frame members or an elongated member arranged in helical fashion. This new and distinct variety has shown to be uniform and stable in the resulting generations from asexual propagation. An embedded processor is notified of the data frame once a programmable number of bytes of the data frame have been received and stored. The disposable absorbent device can also include a pouch adapted for receiving the scrotum of a wearer extending from the body-side layer. In some embodiments, the compounds described herein are used in the treatment or prevention of disorders related to aberrant levels of uric acid.
