Abstract: A surgical instrument comprises a first member extending between a proximal end and a distal end configured for fixation with tissue. A second member defines a longitudinal passageway and is connected with a navigation component such that the distal end is disposable with the passageway at a selected distance from the navigation component. The navigation component is positioned relative to a sensor to communicate a signal representative of an orientation of the first member. A third member extends between a proximal end and a distal end. The third member is mountable with the first member along the orientation such that the distal end of the third member is engageable with the tissue. Systems, spinal implants, constructs and methods are disclosed.

Abstract: A method for determining cardiology disease risk from electrocardiogram trace data and clinical data includes receiving electrocardiogram trace data associated with a patient, receiving the patient's clinical data, providing both sets of data to a trained machine learning composite model that is trained to evaluate the data with respect to each disease of a set of cardiology diseases including three or more of cardiac amyloidosis, aortic stenosis, aortic regurgitation, mitral stenosis, mitral regurgitation, tricuspid regurgitation, abnormal reduced ejection fraction, or abnormal interventricular septal thickness, generating, by the model and based on the evaluation, a composite risk score reflecting a likelihood of the patient being diagnosed with one or more of the cardiology diseases within a predetermined period of time from when the electrocardiogram trace data was generated, and outputting the composite risk score to at least one of a memory or a display.

Abstract: A method and system for predicting the likelihood that a patient will suffer from atrial fibrillation is provided. The method includes receiving electrocardiogram data associated with the patient, providing at least a portion of the electrocardiogram data to a trained model, receiving a risk score indicative of the likelihood the patient will suffer from atrial fibrillation within a predetermined period of time from when the electrocardiogram data was generated, and outputting the risk score to at least one of a memory or a display for viewing by a medical practitioner or healthcare administrator. The system includes at least one processor executing instructions to carry out the steps of the method.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing subscription-on-demand (SOD) services for a interactive information distribution system, where a consumer may subscribe to packages of on-demand programs for a single price and view the programs in the subscribed package at any time for no additional cost. The apparatus and method are embodied in a combination of software, which provides a so called navigator, and hardware, including a subscriber terminal that provides certain functionality for the navigator and service provider equipment that supports the functionality of the terminal. As such, graphical user interface functionality is distributed between the service provider equipment and subscriber equipment (subscriber terminal). Such distribution provides an enjoyable, real time interactive process for accessing SOD services that allows the subscriber to rapidly identify and access a subscription service.

Abstract: An interactive information distribution system for providing secure distribution of video-on-demand content. The interactive information distribution system includes at least one programming source for storing at least one partially encrypted video program, and a distribution center including a remote server. The remote server stores the at least one partially encrypted video program received from the at least one programming source. The remote server also processes the partially encrypted video program corresponding to a subscriber requested video program to produce a fully encrypted video program. A subscriber-side distribution network, coupled to the distribution center, causes transmission of the fully encrypted video program to the requesting subscriber.

Abstract: An interactive information distribution system includes service provider equipment for generating an information stream that is coupled to an information channel and transmitted to subscriber equipment. The service provider also generates a command signal that is coupled to a command channel and transmitted to the subscriber equipment. The service provider also receives information manipulation requests from the subscriber via a back channel. A communication network supporting the information channel, command channel and back channel is coupled between the service provider equipment and the subscriber equipment.

Abstract: A method for providing a financial contract having a payout amount based on a specific return on an asset for a performance period. The method includes the step of determining the total return, risk-free return and common factor return associated with the asset over the performance period. Next, a specific return on the asset over the performance period based on the total return, risk-free return and common factor return is calculated. Finally, the payout amount is provided if the specific return meets payout criteria.
