Abstract: Compounds and compositions that deliver both uridine and ketoleucine are useful in treating disorders characterized by diminished muscle strength or diminished muscle lean mass. One such a compound is 5?-O-ketoleucyl-2?,3?-di-O-acetyluridine.

Abstract: A controller coupled to plural mobile devices through a mobile communications environment including multiple available networks at a location remote from the plural mobile devices. The plural mobile devices are simultaneously connected to plural networks and collecting network data for each simultaneously connected plural multiple networks. The controller includes a receiver receiving from each mobile device the collected network data, where each mobile device is connected to the receiver via an active one of the simultaneously connected plural multiple networks for transmitting the collected network data; a processor configured to evaluate the collected network data from each mobile device and, based upon respective rules established for each mobile device, to produce respective sets of operating parameters for the plural mobile devices; and a transmitter to transmit to each mobile device the respective sets of operating parameters.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of medical treatment of diseases and disorders, as well as the field of biomedical engineering. Embodiments of the invention relate to the delivery of Irreversible Electroporation (IRE) through the vasculature of organs to treat tumors embedded deep within the tissue or organ, or to decellularize organs to produce a scaffold from existing animal tissue with the existing vasculature intact. In particular, methods of administering non-thermal irreversible electroporation (IRE) in vivo are provided for the treatment of tumors located in vascularized tissues and organs. Embodiments of the invention further provide scaffolds and tissues from natural sources created using IRE ex vivo to remove cellular debris, maximize recellularization potential, and minimize foreign body immune response. The engineered tissues can be used in methods of treating subjects, such as those in need of tissue replacement or augmentation.

Abstract: Described herein are a method for transferring an embossed structure, which includes at least the steps (1-i) and (2-i) or (1-ii) and (2-ii), where steps (1-i) and (2-i) or (1-ii) and (2-ii) are carried out using an embossing tool (P1) including at least one embossing die (p1), where the embossing die (p1) of the embossing tool (P1) is pretreated, before the implementation of step (2-i) or before the implementation of step (1-ii), with at least one organic solvent and/or at least one reactive diluent, and also a method of using a corresponding pretreated embossing tool (P1) including at least one embossing die (p1) for the purpose of transferring an embossed structure in such a way.

Abstract: A waveguide antenna with an antenna proximal side and an antenna distal side. A number of waveguide openings for transmitting and/or receiving electromagnetic signals to and/or from an environmental space is arranged at the antenna distal side. The waveguide antenna includes an antenna interface structure that includes interface waveguide apertures arranged in an interface carrying surface that extends transverse to a normal axis. Each interface waveguide aperture is coupled with at least one associated waveguide opening such that the respective interface waveguide aperture and the associated waveguide opening(s) are offset with respect to each other transverse to the normal axis. Each interface waveguide aperture and at least one coupled waveguide opening are configured for transmitting and/or receiving electromagnetic signals with respective polarizations rotated against each other.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for air canning food in an oven cavity (12), where air, not water, is the cooking medium. Using a dedicated air canning algorithm, a temperature of the oven cavity (12) is adjusted in a plurality of temperature and/or time regulated canning stages. An initial pre-heat stage targets a preheat temperature and can maintain the preheat temperature for a predetermined period of time to achieve container (12) sterilization. A subsequent post-heat (canning) stage maintains the cavity at a postheat (canning) temperature to effectively can food. A specialized air canning rack (100) permits the hot, circulating air to freely access substantially the entire periphery of the canning containers (12) during the air canning process.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosed technology encompass solutions for automatically requesting a backup vehicle for passengers of an autonomous vehicle provisioned ride-hailing service. In some aspects, a process of the disclosed technology includes steps for collecting diagnostic data relating to at least one AV operation, and analyzing the diagnostic data to determine if the AV needs maintenance. Moreover, in response to a determination that the AV needs maintenance, the process can include steps for automatically requesting a backup service for a passenger of the AV. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.

Abstract: There are disclosed matrix filters having an input port and sub-filters connected between the input port and respective output ports. Each of the sub-filters includes a ladder circuit with n transversely-excited film bulk acoustic resonator (XBAR) series elements and n?1 capacitor shunt elements, where n, the order of the sub-filter, is an integer greater than 2. Each sub-filter further has a first switch in parallel with a first capacitor shunt element and a second switch in parallel with a last capacitor shunt element.
