Abstract: A recirculation pump includes an impeller, a pump motor assembly, and a heater. The pump motor assembly includes a pump housing having a pump cavity and a pump motor arranged in the pump cavity that drives the impeller, the pump housing arranged axially away from the impeller. The heater is disposed on or in the pump housing and spaced apart from the impeller. The heater is configured to increase a temperature of any portion of the fluid that leaks from the impeller into the pump cavity and resides in the pump cavity. The increase in the temperature causes the fluid that resides in the pump cavity to flow toward the impeller and exit the pump cavity.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure pertain to a method of expressing a nucleic acid sequence in a cell by inserting the nucleic acid sequence at a region of a creatine kinase (CKM) and/or a myoglobin (MB) gene such that the inserted nucleic acid sequence becomes expressed in the cell by a promoter of the gene. The nucleic acid sequences may be expressed in vitro or in vivo for various purposes, such as treatment or prevention of a disease and/or tissue repair or regeneration. Additional embodiments pertain to a system for expressing a nucleic acid sequence in a cell after insertion at a region of a creatine kinase (CKM) gene and/or a myoglobin (MB) gene. Further embodiments of the present disclosure pertain to a modified cell that includes an inserted nucleic acid sequence at a region of a creatine kinase (CKM) gene and/or a myoglobin (MB) gene.

Abstract: A patient monitoring system includes a computing device that having a processor and a memory, the memory comprising instructions that, when executed, cause the system to receive, from a thermographic camera, at least one image corresponding to a temperature of a region of interest and a surrounding area that surrounds the region of interest; use an artificial intelligence model to analyze the at least one image; detect a difference in temperature of the region of interest relative to the surrounding area; and issue an alert related to an incontinence event when the difference in temperature exceeds a threshold value.

Abstract: A system for incontinence prediction includes an electrical impedance tomography (EIT) device, a posture detector, and one or more processors communicatively coupled to the EIT device and the posture detector. The EIT device may include a plurality of electrodes configured to be worn at a lower abdomen of a user around the bladder. The one or more processors is configured to collect an EIT image generated by the EIT device, a posture generated by the posture detector, and a planning activity of the user. The one or more processors may further determine a bladder status based on the EIT image of the user, predict an incontinence risk based on the bladder status, the posture, and the planning activity of the user and determine a high-risk point indicating a high incontinence risk, and notify the user or a caregiver of the high incontinence risk at the high-risk point.

Abstract: A disposable, wearable article can be used for collecting a sample and performing urinalysis. The article incorporates a test port feature to simplify this function. The test port has a resealable cover that can be used to selectively expose an aperture through the backsheet of the disposable article. The test port is used to position test devices, such as urine test strips to urine collected in the disposable article.

Abstract: A system is disclosed for generating synthetic patient data. The system includes one or more patient data monitoring devices, and a computing device that receives patient data from the one or more patient data monitoring devices. The system receives patient data from the one or more patient data monitoring devices. The system analyzes the patient data in real-time to learn one or more characteristics. The system generates synthetic patient data based on the one or more characteristics. The synthetic patient data including data representative of the patient data that is different from the patient data. The system stores the synthetic patient data in a database.

Abstract: A method and enhancements for the decontamination of water containing one or more PFAS contaminants includes introducing a foaming agent into the water, and injecting a gas through a diffuser and into the water so as to form a plurality of bubbles in the water, the one or more PFAS contaminants accumulating on the plurality of bubbles. The plurality of bubbles is allowed to rise, forming a foam at the surface of the water. The resulting foam is then collected and transported away from the surface of the water, where it condenses into a liquid and is treated to regulatory standards.
