Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to prosthetic valves having a frame, a frame cover, and a leaflet construct. Some aspects are directed to a diametric taper for the prosthetic valve for achieving enhanced performance of the prosthetic valve under operational conditions, enhanced compressibility and delivery characteristics, and other additional or alternative advantages. Other aspects are directed toward unique assembly and attachment methods for securing leaflet constructs to support structures. Other aspects are directed toward features for interacting with transcatheter delivery systems. Still other aspects are directed to such apparatuses, systems, and methods for valve replacement, such as cardiac valve replacement.

Abstract: A treestand platform adjustment mechanism adjusts the angle of a treestand platform with respect to a vertical support. The treestand's vertical support extends between a seat and a platform, the platform extending generally perpendicularly from the support, the support generally aligned with a tree. The support comprises openings extending through a tree-facing side of the support. A captive bracket substantially surrounds the support. A fixing bolt extends through the captive bracket and is received by the openings to set the position of the platform with respect to the support.

Abstract: A composition and method for the use of Irvingia gabonensis seed extract for hunger suppression in obese individuals with low Leptin sensitivity, individuals with higher levels of ghrelin, and for individuals with Cannabis-induced appetite stimulation where dosage can be effectively administered in a gum base cold pressed into a tablet containing at least 100 mg of Irvingia gabonensis seed extract and Maltitol, Sorbitol, Isomalt, Xylitol, natural & artificial flavors, vegetarian magnesium stearate, Sucralose and Silicon dioxide.

Abstract: An alkaline catalyst for hydrogen generation can comprise a first metal (102), a second metal (104), and hydroxide (104). When the alkaline catalyst is added to an aqueous solution containing a hydrogen generation metal, the aqueous solution produces at least 4 L of hydrogen per 5 gram of hydrogen generation metal per 15 minutes at a production temperature of 140° F. and at a pressure of 1 atm.

Abstract: A grate access floor panel comprising a support frame and a plurality of vanes supported by the frame, each of the plurality of vanes having an upstream end and a downstream end with respect to a direction of airflow across the plurality of vanes and faces that extend between the upstream and downstream ends, wherein at least some of the vanes have openings that extend through the faces thereof and have angled tips.

Abstract: A support system, an excavation arrangement, and a process of supporting an object are disclosed. The support system includes a weight-bearing device and a camming mechanism positioned below the weight-bearing device. A downward force on the weight-bearing device at least partially secures the camming mechanism to opposing surfaces. The excavation arrangement includes a borehole, a support system positioned within and secured to the borehole, and an object positioned on and supported by the support system. The process includes positioning and securing the support system and positioning the object on the weight-bearing device.

Abstract: Methods to identify a set of probe polynucleotides suitable for detecting a set of targets and in particular methods for identification of primers suitable for detection of target microorganisms related polynucleotides, set of polynucleotides and compositions, and related methods and systems for detection and/or identification of microorganisms in a sample.

Abstract: The present invention is a method for assigning a qualitative importance of relevant genetic phenotypes to the use of specific drugs for individual patients based on genetic test results. The invention provides a drug-centric integration of pharmacogenetic test information across multiple genes relevant to an individual drug. The invention then assigns a color designation for each drug reported and groups the drugs together on a report according to drug class/therapeutic area, thus allowing the physician to easily and quickly identify a drug from a specific drug class that would be best for that patient according to their entire pharmacogenetic test results. The outputs of the method can be added to existing pharmacogenetic test reports as a quick guide for the physician. Such integration of pharmacogenetic information from multiple genes and drug-centric organization of the outputs should allow physicians to more easily utilize and incorporate pharmacogenetic testing into their practice.
