  • Patent number: 9778250
    Abstract: Methods, devices, kits and systems for diagnosing inclusion body myositis (IBM) are provided. Methods, devices, kits and systems involves detecting the presence and/or level of autoantibodies that are reactive against at least a ˜43 kilodalton (kDa) protein or ˜43 kDa protein band from a muscle lysate or a mammalian cell lysate, or autoantibodies that are reactive against a cytosolic 5?-nucleotidase 1A protein (NT5C1A), or a cytosolic 5?-nucleotidase 1B protein (NT5C1B), or a NT5C1B isoform thereof, or a peptide fragment thereof, an isolated peptide thereof or a fusion protein comprising an isolated peptide of NT5C1A or NT5C1B. Such autoantibodies are only found in IBM patients and not in patients with other myopathies.

  • Patent number: 9760453
    Abstract: Technologies are described herein for providing a two-tier failover service. A request to access content by an application associated with an application identifier may be identified. A first record corresponding to the application identifier may be retrieved from a database information table. The first record may include a reference identifier, a database name of a database, and a failover value. A second record corresponding to the reference identifier may be retrieved from a server information table. The second record may include an indication of a first server computer as a primary server computer and an indication of a second server computer as a secondary server computer. A connection specification to either the first server computer or the second server computer may be generated based on the first record and the second record.

  • Publication number: 20170212944
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide enhanced computer- and network-based methods, techniques, and systems for automatically accessing large bodies of potentially disparate data in a compelling environment without the limitations of access provided by spreadsheet systems and in a uniform manner for all types of data. Example embodiments provide an Automated Data Visualization System (“ADVS”), which enables users to access data typically provided by backend systems of organizations in an environment that automatically presents the data using user interface patterns that align with the data. In an example embodiment, the ADVS comprises one or more functional components/modules including an attribute determination logic/engine, a visualization logic/engine, a resizing logic/engine, and a scaling logic/engine in addition to a user interface. Also, in one example embodiment the visualization utilizes a user interface card metaphor to present information.

  • Publication number: 20160161499
    Abstract: Assay methods, kits and systems for an improved sensitive diagnosis of inclusion body myositis (IBM) are provided. Assays, kits and systems involve detecting the presence and/or level of a combination of more than one autoantibody isotypes that are reactive against a cytosolic 5?-nucleotidase 1A protein (CN1A), or a cytosolic 5?-nucleotidase 1B protein (CN1B), or a CN1B isoform thereof, or a peptide fragment thereof, an isolated peptide thereof or a fusion protein comprising an isolated peptide of CN1A or CN1B. IBM patients have differing patterns of anti-cN1A/cN1B autoantibody isotypes. Therefore, testing a combination of such isotypes provide an improved and sensitive diagnostic assay.

  • Publication number: 20150312372
    Abstract: Collecting and distributing information related to recent content publication activity of an instant messaging (IM) user provides other users in a network with timely, relevant information about people known to the user or within the same social network. A user participating in a social network can quickly and efficiently perceive new information related to other users (referred to as co-users) in a social network by reviewing the co-users' recent content publication activity. A user may be made able to do so without requiring the co-user to send a communication directly to the user regarding the new facts or new content, and also without requiring the user to actively browse or request information about the co-user.
