Abstract: A model-assisted system for extracting patient information. A processor may be programmed to access a database storing one or more medical records associated with a patient and determine, using a first machine learning model and based on unstructured information included in the one or more medical records, whether the patient is associated with a condition. The processor may further be programmed to identify a date associated with the patient and determine, using a second machine learning model and based. on the unstructured information, whether the patient is associated with the condition relative to the date. The processor may generate an output indicating whether the patient is associated with the condition and whether the patient is associated with the condition relative to the date.

Abstract: A system is described for controlling a locking system restricting physical access (e.g. a door lock). The locking system is accessed (e.g., actuated and monitored) via dual communication path types used by a mobile wireless communication device. The locking system includes an electro-mechanical access control security device, and a receiving unit controlling the electro-mechanical access control security device. The receiving unit is paired with the mobile wireless communication device for receiving input from the mobile wireless device for activating the electro-mechanical access control security device using both low energy and high energy operating modes. The mobile wireless device is configured to access the locking system via both direct BLUETOOTH and indirect mobile wireless data network communications. Moreover, the operating range of the receiving unit is extended by connections to networked devices operating BLUETOOTH 4+LE at a high power—extended range mode through the use of an amplifier stage.

Abstract: Some polymeric devices, as described herein, can be made of a first layer and a second layer bonded together with one or more microfluidic channels defined internal to the device. The first layer and the second layer may each include a substrate and a polymer bonded to the substrate. The two layers may be bonded through a polymer network that interpenetrates the polymers in the first and second layers. This disclosure also describes methods of bonding together polymeric articles. The methods include diffusing polymerizable monomers and radical forming initiators into the surfaces of one or both of the polymers, putting the surfaces into contact, and initiating polymerization to create a polymer network that interpenetrates the polymers.

Abstract: According to an embodiment of the disclosure, an improved window lock includes a base hinge, a lever lock, and a base hook. The base hinge includes an adhesive material that allows mounting of the base hinge to either the window being locked or a frame that moves with the window being locked. The lever lock moves with respect to the base hinge with the interface between the two being respective hinge portions. The base hook includes an adhesive material that allows a mounting of base hook to a frame at a particular desired location for locking the window.

Abstract: A method for blocking unwanted calls has been provided. The includes intercepting a call being routed from a calling device to a receiving device. The intercepting occurs prior to the call being presented to the receiving device for an answer. The method further determines further routing of the intercepted call by comparing parameters of the intercepted call to one or more lists. If it is determined that the call should be authenticated, the method sends an authentication challenge to the calling device. If a response is received to the authentication challenge, the method determines whether the response is correct. If the response is correct, the method routes the call to the receiving device.

Abstract: Devices can be implanted in an eye to treat glaucoma and/or dry eye. The devices described herein include a body defining a lumen and having first and second ends and external and lumenal surfaces. The body has a length sufficient to provide fluid communication between the anterior chamber and tear film of the eye through the lumen when the device is implanted in the sclera. The body can include a radiused distal edge. A distal end portion of the body can be laterally flared. The body can include a mid-body portion that is laterally narrower than distal and proximal end portions of the body. Methods of treating glaucoma and/or dry eye, wherein the device is implanted in the sclera of an afflicted eye, are also described.
