Abstract: A power supply may include a power converter circuit may be configured to control a magnitude of an output voltage, and generate a signal indicative of the magnitude of the output voltage. The power supply may include an over-power protection circuit that is configured to receive a feedback signal indicative of a magnitude of an input current of the power converter circuit. The power supply may include a control circuit that is configured to determine a magnitude of a requested power based on the signal indicative of the magnitude of the output voltage, and disable the power supply (e.g., control the magnitude of the output voltage to be zero volts) when the magnitude of the requested power is greater than a second threshold and the magnitude of input power indicated by the first feedback signal is less than a third threshold.

Abstract: A magnetic alignment system can include a case with a magnetic alignment component that is configured to align with a magnetic alignment component of a wireless charging device. The case can support a portable electronic device, such as a smart phone and include an NFC coil for communicating with the portable electronic device. The magnetic alignment component and the NFC coil can be provided as an assembly that is embedded within a body of the case in a manner that provides a low profile and improved aesthetic appearance.

Abstract: A method can include receiving a document associated with a checklist item. A method can include identifying a template associated with the document. A method can include identifying an area of the document associated with a value of a key-value pair based at least in part on the template. A method can include extracting, using a first optical character recognition process, the value from the area. A method may cause display of the value. A method can include receiving a corrected value from the user. A method may include extracting, using a second optical character recognition process, full text of the document. A method may include determining a location of the corrected value in the document. A method may include updating the first optical character recognition process, wherein updating the first optical character recognition process causes the first optical character recognition to extract the value from the location.

Abstract: A connector includes a housing that includes an engagement member and defines a recess that is configured to receive a retaining structure of a corresponding connector of a device, and a release. When the connector is mated with the corresponding connector of the device, the release is configured to cause movement of the engagement member to displace the retaining structure from the recess.

Abstract: A proning device includes a conformable structure that adapts to the shape of a subject, surrounded by a shell that imparts a substantially elliptical cross-sectional shape to an exterior of the device to facilitate rotation of the subject within the device when the device is wrapped around the subject. A low-friction interface may also be provided to further facilitate rotation of the subject. The device advantageously reduces staffing needs for proning a subject while facilitating extended proning and periodic re-orientation of the subject. Also disclosed herein are methods for making and using such a proning device.

Abstract: A magnetic alignment system can include a primary annular magnetic alignment component and a secondary annular magnetic alignment component. The primary alignment component can include an inner annular region having a first magnetic orientation, an outer annular region having a second magnetic orientation opposite to the first magnetic orientation, and a non-magnetized central annular region disposed between the primary inner annular region and the primary outer annular region. The secondary alignment component can have a magnetic orientation with a radial component. Additional features, such as a rotational magnetic alignment component and/or an NFC coil and circuitry can be included.

Abstract: Treatment of the adverse cardiovascular effects of cannabinoids in a subject with genistein or a genistein derivative.

Abstract: Systems and methods for content framing monitoring and intervention are disclosed. In one example, a method includes receiving, at a computing device, first text conveying first information, performing natural language processing of the first text, determining a first framing of the first information based on the natural language processing of the first text, determining second text conveying the first information with a second framing, different from the first framing, and outputting the second text on an electronic display.

Abstract: Microfluidic apparatuses including concentrators and buffer exchange regions that concentrate and exchange buffer. Also described are methods of passing a solution through a feed channel, filtering small molecules out of the feed channel by tangential flow filtration into a permeate channel adjacent to the first feed channel while maintaining a constant sheer rate relative to the membrane separating the feed channel from the permeate channel and exchanging buffer into the solution and concentrating the solution in a second region of the apparatus.

Abstract: A method to generate a digital avatar simulating a human for behavioral empathy and understanding is described. The method includes training a neural network to generate the digital avatar to simulate the human according to a vector of human attributes and generate responses in response to interactions with a user based on the vector of human attributes. The method also includes interacting, by the user, with the digital avatar, in which the digital avatar initially having a similar background and attributes as the user. The method further includes modifying, over time, the attributes of the digital avatar to represent a target background and a target set of attributes different from the user.

Abstract: A strap attachment device includes a strap connector configured to attach to a strap and a connecting plate secured on the surface of an article such as a bag or suitcase. The strap connector includes a connector post configured to removably engage and be secured by a locking member located beneath the connecting plate. The locking member is biased into a closed position by a mechanical biasing means, such as a spring. The connector post may include a flanged end configured to partially disengage the locking member causing the flanged end to mate with and be secured by the locking member responsive to being inserted into the connecting plate. A pull tab is further disposed on a pull track within the connecting plate. A user can disengage the connector post from the locking member by moving the pull tab along the pull track.
