Abstract: A respiratory disease analytics system provides respiratory disease risk reports to a patient, provider, or third-party entity describing a patient's risk of experiencing a medication usage event given data in a geographic region. Regional data, including air pollutant conditions, weather conditions, demographic information, built environment factors, and regional health conditions for a geographic region are accessed from other sources and assigned based on event data recorded during a medicament usage event, as collected by sensors associated with the patient's medicament device/s. The regional data is assigned to medicament usage events occurring within a period of time. The assigned regional data is analyzed to determine an expected number of medication usage events for the geographic region occurring over the period of time.

Abstract: An orthopedic implant with an inferior portion having a tibia contact surface configured to extend over a tibia; a superior portion opposite to the inferior portion having a tendon contact surface configured to change a position of a patellar tendon by lifting or tilting the patellar tendon when the curved surface of the first portion is engaged with the tibia; and a fixation mechanism adapted to attach the orthopedic implant to the tibia, the orthopedic implant being further configured to change shape from a first configuration to a second configuration in response to a load applied between the tendon contact surface and the tibia contact surface. The invention also addresses corresponding methods.

Abstract: A method at an Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) Entity, the method including receiving a message from a second ITS entity, the message containing a safety assurance indication, and performing an action at the ITS entity based on the safety assurance indication. Further, an ITS Entity comprising a processor; and a communications subsystem, wherein the ITS Entity is configured to: receive a message from a second ITS entity, the message containing a safety assurance indication, and perform an action at the ITS entity based on the safety assurance indication.

Abstract: In some examples, a vehicle receives authorization information that identifies an automotive service to be performed on the vehicle, the authorization information further indicating approval of performance of the automotive service on the vehicle by an operator of the vehicle and a vehicle manufacturer. Based on the authorization information, the vehicle enables access of an electronic component of the vehicle by an authorized repair entity to perform the automotive service.

Abstract: A method at an Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) Transmitting Entity, the method including: generating an ITS message; augmenting the ITS message with an Integrity Report generated by an integrity detection function at the ITS Transmitting Entity to create an augmented ITS message; signing the augmented ITS message with an Authorization Certificate or Ticket, the Authorization Certificate or Ticket including an assurance indication from an Audit Certificate Authority for the integrity detection function; and sending the signed, augmented ITS message to an ITS Receiving Entity.

Abstract: A method at an Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) Entity, the method including receiving a message from a second ITS entity, the message containing a safety assurance indication, and performing an action at the ITS entity based on the safety assurance indication. Further, an ITS Entity comprising a processor; and a communications subsystem, wherein the ITS Entity is configured to: receive a message from a second ITS entity, the message containing a safety assurance indication, and perform an action at the ITS entity based on the safety assurance indication.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for promoting anti-tumor immune response in a subject in need thereof using encapsulated interleukin 12 (IL-12).

Abstract: A method at a system including a firewall and at least one application, the method including obtaining, at the at least one application, a new address for a service provider for the at least one application; triggering a firewall update; obtaining a new firewall configuration; and updating the firewall, wherein the updating the firewall allows a connection from the at least one application to the new address for the service provider.

Abstract: A flow management and separation system for a wellbore having a horizontal section, vertical section and intermediate build section, a production tubing, and an annulus surrounding the production tubing, is combined with a primary vertical lift device disposed in the intermediate build section or a heel segment of the horizontal section. The fluid flow management system may be located adjacent to and downhole from the primary vertical lift device. The system includes an intake to an intake passage, to receive produced fluids from the reservoir; a wavebreaker for calming produced fluid flow; a fluidseeker having a rotatable inlet extension having a weighted keel and an internal bypass passage in fluid communication with the intake flow passage; and a separator for separating gas and liquid phases uphole from the fluidseeker.
