Abstract: A formatting object according to the present invention conveys information to the reader of a document (such as a table or chart) by associating visual attributes (such as color, fill type, border width, line width, line style, font size, marker size and marker type) to characters or markers within the document. The formatting object may be used to emphasize data within a table or a chart by modifying the structural visual attributes of characters or markers within the table or chart according to pre-defined criteria. Similarly, the formatting object may be used to increase information density within a table or chart, and to elegantly represent the relationships between four or more interrelated variables in a two-dimensional chart. The formatting object accomplishes this by defining at least one format map that comprises one or more mapping segments.

Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus and corresponding method to capture individual representational motions made by a person while performing a neuropsychological test. A user of the apparatus and method may be allowed to view, edit, classify, and retrieve any captured and recorded motions made by the person. In one embodiment, a capture unit, such as a digitizer, captures the motions made by a person while performing a Clock Drawing Test, and the captured data may then be reported in a myriad of ways. The apparatus and method also provide a means to standardize administration and scoring of writing utensil and paper based neuropsychological testing administered to a person or control and test groups for domestic or international applications. By analyzing individual representational motions made by a person while performing a neuropsychological test, unexpectedly more information may be gleaned from the test than was available to physicians from only a completed drawing.

Abstract: The invention relates to members of the Fc receptor homolog (FcRH) subfamily, as well as fragments and variants thereof. Each FcRH is a Type I transmembrane receptor, preferably, comprises an extracellular region, a transmembrane region, and a cytoplasmic region. The cytoplasmic region preferably comprises one or more immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory or activation motifs (“ITIMs” or “ITAMs). The invention provides polypeptides, nucleic acids, vectors, expression systems, and antibodies and antibody fragments related to the FcRHs as well as uses thereof. Such uses include uses in the diagnosis and treatment of a malignancy of hematopoietic cell lineage or an inflammatory or autoimmune disease in a subject and in the modulation of a humoral immune response in a subject.

Abstract: A current transformer test method implemented using a test device, is useful to verify proper CT installation and operation, and does not rely on the generator (or other system) to be in a state of relatively high assembly. The test device allows a current transformer to be tested by supplying an alternating current (AC) signal to a primary winding of the current transformer to thereby induce an AC signal in a secondary winding of the current transformer. The test device is used to simultaneously monitor the phases of the supplied AC signal and the induced AC signal so that a determination can be made as to whether the current transformer secondary winding is properly installed relative to the current transformer primary winding, and to simultaneously monitor the current magnitudes of the supplied AC signal and the induced AC signal so that the turns ratio of the current transformer can be determined.

Abstract: An assembly is provided for testing a circuit of a rotor of an AC generator. The assembly includes a base, a rack, a coil housing, one or more coils, and a rotor stand. The rack is coupled to the base and the coil housing is coupled to the rack. The one or more coils are disposed within the coil housing and are adapted to receive electrical power and configured, in response to receiving the power, to generate a magnetic field. The rotor stand is coupled to the base and configured to mount the rotor therein to position the rotor proximate the coil housing.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods of isolating functionalizing reagents and unreacted bioreactive material in an array of microscopic sense site wells in a substrate surface and to scrub clean the sense site substrate surface. The disclosed apparatus and methods improve systems for detecting biochemical reactions to any of a variety of microarray probe materials by a variety of techniques including, but not limited to, electrical, fluorescent, calorimetric, or enzymatic detection.

Abstract: An electrical detection system and method using an array of conductive sense sites within a sensing substrate for electrically detecting the successful hybridization or binding reaction between two chemical substances, particularly between biogenic substances such as nucleotides, proteins and ligands, and antigens and antibodies. The method and apparatus provide a an inexpensive, robust, small, repeatable, and intuitively easy to use apparatus for detection of low levels of hybridization with large numbers of closely spaced conductive sense sites within a single substrate.
