Abstract: Described herein are compositions and methods for treating a lung disorder associated with dysregulated VEGF signaling. The PR1P peptide (DRVQRQTTTVVA, SEQ ID NO: 1) and variants thereof are able to enhance VEGF signaling in the lungs and reduce lung cell apoptosis (e.g., induced by toxicity or injury), thus treating the disorder.

Abstract: A system includes a sensor configured to generate thoracic impedance data associated with a patient for a period of time, a memory storing machine-readable instructions, and a control system communicatively coupled to the sensor. The control system is arranged to provide control signals to one or more electronic devices and including one or more processors configured to execute the machine-readable instructions to analyze the generated thoracic impedance data associated with the patient; determine, based at least in part on the analysis, respiratory function signals and cardiac function signals, and whether the respiratory function signals and cardiac function signals satisfies a predetermined threshold, and cause an operation of the one or more electronic devices to be modified in response to determining the respiratory function signals and cardiac function signals satisfies the predetermined threshold.

Abstract: A physiologic sensor module includes at least one wearable sensor that is configured for wearing on a human body part and for measuring at least one biological signal. The module further includes at least one controller communicatively coupled to the wearable sensor and configured to receive the biological signal from the wearable sensor. The controller is further configured to process the biological signal in real-time, extract one or more clinical features from the biological signal, and based on the clinical features, determine detection of anaphylaxis.

Abstract: An injector module includes a housing, a reservoir, a superelastic needle, and an actuator. The reservoir is positioned in the housing and stores epinephrine therein. The superelastic needle is positioned within the housing in a retracted position and is fluidly coupled with the reservoir. The superelastic needle has a gauge between eighteen and twenty-five. The actuator is configured to apply an actuator force on the superelastic needle such that the superelastic needle is moved from the retracted position to an injecting position where a tip of the superelastic needle protrudes from the housing between about fifteen millimeters and about thirty-five millimeters.
