Abstract: The present invention relates to assays for predicting the presence, absence or development of cancer in an individual, particularly endometrial and ovarian cancer, by determining the methylation status of certain CpGs in a population of DNA molecules in a sample which has been taken from the individual, deriving an index value based on the methylation status of the certain CpGs, and predicting the presence, absence or development of cancer in the individual based on the cancer index value. The invention further relates to a method of treating and/or prevention of cancer in an individual, particularly endometrial and ovarian cancer, the method comprising assessing the presence, absence or development of cancer in an individual by performing the assays of the invention, followed by administering one or more therapeutic treatments or measures to the individual based on the assessment.

Abstract: A system and method of managing a model, such as a digital twin. The method may involve receiving three-dimensional model data representative of a setting, converting the three-dimensional model data into a simplified model using a parallel processing pipeline architecture, rendering the simplified model using a three-dimensional model rendering platform, converting a view of the rendered model from a specific position at a specific angle into a streamable format, and transmitting the streamable format of the view of the rendered model to an end-user terminal over a network connection.

Abstract: An augmented reality surgical system includes a head mounted display (HMD) with a see-through display screen, a motion sensor, a camera, and computer equipment. The motion sensor outputs a head motion signal indicating measured movement of the HMD. The computer equipment computes the relative location and orientation of reference markers connected to the HMD and to the patient based on processing a video signal from the camera. The computer equipment generates a three dimensional anatomical model using patient data created by medical imaging equipment, and rotates and scales at least a portion of the three dimensional anatomical model based on the relative location and orientation of the reference markers, and further rotate at least a portion of the three dimensional anatomical model based on the head motion signal to track measured movement of the HMD. The rotated and scaled three dimensional anatomical model is displayed on the display screen.

Abstract: A sealed speaker enclosure for a bass speaker that is hand-insertable and removable from a hard-side motorcycle saddlebag. The body of the enclosure complements the interior space of the saddlebag making sealing contact with the interior walls of the saddlebag. The bass speaker faces the motorcycle side of the saddlebag within the shock absorber tower indentation overlapping and opening. A speaker grill overlays the opening in the shock absorber tower indentation of the saddlebag.

Abstract: A pointing controller worn by a user enables intuitive control of various connected smart devices. Users may indicate which device is to be controlled by pointing in the direction of the smart device (or a proxy object) and performing a predefined action to select the device for control. Once selected, the user may interact with the smart device by performing various gestures or interactions with one or more control elements integrated into the pointing controller. The smart device may provide feedback using visual or auditory indicators on the smart device, or by sending a control signal to the pointing controller or other device in proximity to the user that provides haptic, auditory, or visual feedback.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds of Formula (I), wherein R1, R2, R3, R4 and G are as defined herein. The invention further relates to herbicidal compositions which comprise a compound of Formula (I), to their use for controlling weeds, in particular in crops of useful plants.

Abstract: A deck system for cargo compartment may including one or more of the following features: a first deck; a second deck, where at least one of the first deck and the second deck divide the cargo compartment into an upper sub-compartment and a lower sub-compartment; and an actuator that is mechanically coupled to the second deck, where operation of the actuator causes at least a portion of the second deck to move vertically relative to the first deck within the cargo compartment.

Abstract: A pet mobility carrier assembly for a disabled animal having either a rear leg disability or a front leg disability. The assembly includes a carrier base with a perimeter surface, a carrier animal support removably disposed on the carrier base, and at least three rollers connected to the carrier base that provides multi-directional movement to the pet mobility carrier assembly when on a floor.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to certain (2S)—N-[(1S)-1-cyano-2-phenylethyl]-1,4-oxazepane-2-carboxamide compounds (including pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof), that inhibit dipeptidyl peptidase 1 (DPP1) activity, to their utility in treating and/or preventing clinical conditions including respiratory diseases, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), to their use in therapy, to pharmaceutical compositions containing them and to processes for preparing such compounds.

Abstract: A dish rack for cleaning reusable plastic dishware can include a bottom support wall, a sidewall defining an outer frame, and a cover positionable over the bottom support wall. In some examples, the dish rack includes spaced-apart prongs extending upwardly from the bottom support wall. In use, an operator can load reusable plastic dishware on or between the prongs of the dish rack and close the cover. This can enclose the reusable plastic in a space bounded between the bottom support wall, the sidewall defining the frame, and the cover. Once loaded, the operator can insert the dishrack into the dishwasher to clean the reusable plastic dishware while retained in the dish rack. The dish rack can allow the reusable plastic dishware to be properly cleaned while minimizing or eliminating problems associated with the comparatively light reusable plastic dishware moving in response to high pressure water within the dishwasher.

Abstract: An adjustable carriage assembly is configured to be mounted on a frame member of a weight rack and includes a moveable carriage with a plurality of rollers that engage the frame member, as well as a connection structure for connection of an articulating implement. A releasable pin is mounted on the carriage proximate to a rear of the carriage and has an arm configured for engagement to move the releasable pin. The releasable pin is moveable by axial translation between a locked position and an unlocked position to selectively engage the frame member to lock the carriage in position or permit movement of the carriage. A removable pin may be removably received through a pin hole in the carriage to extend through the passage in a direction perpendicular to a direction of axial translation of the releasable pin, to engage the frame member to prevent movement of the carriage.
