Abstract: The invention provides a method of treating alveolar bone loss involving administration of a sclerostin inhibitor to a subject in need thereof.

Abstract: The present invention provides compounds of Formula (I), wherein: as defined in the specification, an enantiomer, diastereomer, atropisomer thereof, or a mixture thereof, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, that are inhibitors of voltage-gated sodium channels, in particular Nav 1.7. The compounds are useful for the treatment of diseases treatable by inhibition of sodium channels such as pain disorders, cough, or itch. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions containing compounds of the present invention.

Abstract: Provided are certain pharmaceutical formulations of omecamtiv mecarbil and methods for their preparation and use.

Abstract: The apparati, methods, and computer program products disclosed herein can be used to nondestructively detect undissolved particles, such as glass flakes and/or protein aggregates, in a fluid in a vessel, such as, but not limited to, a fluid that contains a drug.

Abstract: The invention encompasses methods of treatment of interferon gamma (IFN-?)-mediated diseases using IFN-? inhibitors, such as anti-huIFN-? antibodies, wherein levels of expression of one or more biomarkers are determined either before administration of the IFN-? inhibitor and/or after administration. Also contemplated are methods of treatment using particular, pharmacodynamically effective doses of an anti-huIFN-? antibody.

Abstract: The present invention provides antibodies and immunologically functional fragments thereof that specifically bind DKK1 polypeptides. Methods for preparing such antibodies or fragments thereof as well as physiologically acceptable compositions containing the antibodies or fragments are also provided. Use of the antibodies and fragments to treat various diseases are also disclosed.

Abstract: An automated visual inspection (AVI) system is described to measure the depth of plungers positioned within vessels. The AVI system implements various types of image processing as well as other techniques to identify, for a vessel, a reference point and the uppermost edge of the plunger. Because different inconsistencies and/or artifacts may be introduced within the vessel image, different processing techniques may be executed on the region containing the reference point versus the plunger region. In doing so, the AVI system provides a robust means to accurately measure plunger depth that is highly resilient to the aforementioned artifacts and consistently measures plunger depth for a wide variety and types of vessels.
