Abstract: An assay that informs precision-based intrapleural fibrinolytic therapy (IPFT) is disclosed. Provided is a simple assay based on measurement of the Fibrinolytic Potential (FP)—total fibrinolytic activity in pleural fluid when plasminogen activator inhibitors (PAIs) are neutralized and endogenous plasminogen (PLG) is activated. The assay is used to determine FP in baseline pleural fluids of patients undergoing IPFT with agents such as tPA or scuPA to determine the dose and dose intervals for the particular patient. Pleural fluids are also collected after IPFT to confirm that intrapleural fibrinolysis is inhibited and endogenous PLG accumulates in the pleural fluid. Inhibition of intrapleural fibrinolysis in combination with its increase after supplementation of pleural fluid with a plasminogen activator indicates whether or not the subject should be treated with more or higher doses of an IPFT drug.

Abstract: The invention relates to methods for acting on augmented reality virtual objects. According to the invention, the coordinates of a device for creating and viewing augmented reality are determined in relation to a real-world physical marker by means of analysis of an image from a camera of the device; a virtual camera is positioned in calculated coordinates of the device in relation to a physical base coordinate system in such a way that the marker, which is visible to the virtual camera, is positioned in the field of vision thereof, just as the physical marker is positioned in the field of vision of the device camera; a vector is calculated, which corresponds to a direction from the marker to the virtual camera in real-time mode; information is generated relating to all of the movements of the camera in relation to the marker, i.e. rotation, zoom, tilt.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an assay that informs precision-based intrapleural fibrinolytic therapy (IPFT). Provided is a simple assay based on measurement of the Fibrinolytic Potential (FP)—total fibrinolytic activity in pleural fluid when plasminogen activator inhibitors (PAIs) are neutralized and endogenous plasminogen (PLG) is activated. The assay is used to determine FP in baseline pleural fluids of patients undergoing IPFT with agents such as tPA or scuPA to determine the dose and dose intervals for the particular patient. Pleural fluids are also collected after IPFT to confirm that intrapleural fibrinolysis is inhibited and endogenous PLG accumulates in the pleural fluid. Inhibition of intrapleural fibrinolysis in combination with its increase after supplementation of pleural fluid with a plasminogen activator indicates whether or not the subject should be treated with more or higher doses of an IPFT drug.
