  • Publication number: 20220125745
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for administration in combination with a drug that causes acidosis. Acidosis occurs due to disrupted acid-base balance caused in a case where a large amount of acid is produced and accumulated in the body. There are many cases where acidosis occurs as a side effect associated with drugs for treating various diseases, which poses problems. The pharmaceutical composition of the present invention not only allows the intended purpose, for which a drug that causes acidosis is administered, to be maintained but also has a remarkable effect in decreasing the concentration of acid accumulated in an organism due to administration of the drug that causes acidosis. Thus, the pharmaceutical composition is expected to be widely used in the fields of medicine and health.

  • Publication number: 20220120639
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for analyzing vibration data to determine and mitigate an occurrence of an anomaly at an industrial asset. A device may obtain and preprocess vibration data, which may include grouping the vibration data according to respective time intervals, and the device may filter the grouped data to obtain the most recent measurement readings. The device may use an anomaly detection algorithm to detect outliers in the datasets for each group of vibration data and compare an amplitude of the outliers to a threshold for the respective group. The device may determine that the vibration data includes an anomaly based on quantities of outliers in first and second subsets of the vibration data that are within a detection window. The device may generate a report including an indication of the anomaly and transmit the report to an operator or engineer for the facility.
