  • Publication number: 20230099880
    Abstract: A method for early diagnosis of an autoimmune or chronic disease in subject. The method includes (i) selecting, out of missing existing health related data of the subject (HRDS) items, a subject-specific subset; (ii) obtaining at least one missing existing HRDS item; (iii) adding the at least one obtained HRDS item to an existing HRDS to provide an updated HRDS; (iv) applying to the updated HRDS, a second machine learning model adapted to convert parameters of the updated HRDS, some of which may be indicative of the early development stages of the disease, into a second vector that provides a compact representation of the updated HRDS that reflects on the medical condition of the subject; and (v) applying a second classifier model to the second vector to provide a second classification result that is indicative of a second likelihood of the subject having or developing the disease.

  • Patent number: 11602759
    Abstract: An applicator for a syringe is provided that includes a hub configured to be disposed at least partially within a nozzle of the syringe and defining a fluid passage therethrough, with one or barbs on the hub that frictionally and sealingly engage an interior of the nozzle in a manner minimizing void space associated with waste of deliverable material, and an applicator tip extending distally from the hub. The barb(s) may have varying diameters in order to enable the applicator to be engaged and utilized with syringes having different diameter nozzles. Further the fluid passage through the hub and applicator tip is dimensioned to minimize the volume of material that is retained within the applicator after use, thereby increasing the volume of material that can dispensed from the syringe for use in a procedure or procedures and minimize waste.
