Abstract: A device apparatus for measuring acetone levels exhaled air in order to determine the content of glucose in the blood is provided. The device includes a chemical sensor cell having a vertically oriented hollow truncated cone with one end having a first diameter and an opposite end having a second diameter that is larger than the first diameter and also a solution housed within the chemical sensor cell.

Abstract: A device, system, and method for measuring acetone levels exhaled from a patient and correlating the measured level to a blood glucose concentration.

Abstract: A system and method is provided whereby an electromechanical device is paired with an insulin delivery device such that said pairing results in the recordation of insulin delivery date, time and amount.

Abstract: A device and method for transmitting blood glucose level information from user provided glucometers, said glucometers originating from different manufacturers, to a receiver constructed and arranged to monitor, and sort said information and to selectively output said information.

Abstract: Information, such as files received from a client, etc., is stored in a storage system, such as a content addressable storage system. A file server receives data from a client and chunks the data into blocks of data. The file server also generates metadata for use in forming a data structure. The blocks of data are stored in a block store and a copy of the data blocks and the metadata are locally cached at the file server. A commit server retrieves the metadata. In at least one embodiment, the metadata is retrieved from an update log shared between the file server and the commit server. Based on the retrieved metadata, the commit server generates a version of a data structure. The data structure is then stored at the block store.
