Abstract: The present invention provides methods for sequencing and analysis of nucleic acids and determining that a subject is positive for a non-usual interstitial pneumonia subtype.

Abstract: An obscuring cover for covering at least a portion of a saw that includes a saw body and a saw blade attached to the saw body is provided. The obscuring cover includes an interior cavity defined by at least one inner surface of the obscuring cover. The interior cavity is configured to removably receive at least a portion of the saw body. At least one securing member is at least partially located at least one of internal to and adjacent to the interior cavity. The at least one securing member is configured to removably engage an exterior portion of the saw to removably connect the obscuring cover to the saw. At least a portion of the obscuring cover is configured to at least partially visually obstruct a subject's view of the saw blade when the obscuring cover is connected to the saw.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include a transistor comprising a gate region and an epitaxial region, the transistor comprising a frontside opposite a backside.

Abstract: An inspection system for inspecting a machine includes an inspection vehicle constructed for wireless operation while submersed in a dielectric liquid medium. The inspection vehicle is self-propelled. A controller is operative to direct the activities of the inspection vehicle. A plurality of status interrogation systems is disposed on the inspection vehicle. The status interrogation systems are operative to capture inspection data regarding a plurality of inspection procedures performed on the machine.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods and systems for analyzing a sample of a subject to determine whether the subject has, or is at risk of having or developing, a cancer, such as lung cancer.

Abstract: In some aspects, the disclosure is directed to methods and systems for secure and authenticated tracking of entity possession via a lightweight centralized or distributed ledger. Ownership records of different entities may be recorded on an immutable ledger such that provenance of the entities is verifiable and a user cannot create or counterfeit an entity. In some implementations, the system may store metadata of entities in a separate database that may store records for each entity and correspond to the respective entity's virtual identifier, enabling the ledger records to contain much less data, saving memory resources and the energy that is required to maintain the ledger. In some implementations, distributed incremental values may be provided to members of an ownership or possession chain of an entity, which may encourage compliance, reporting of ownership transfer, and encourage additional transfers.

Abstract: A device and method for absorbing electromagnetic waves can include a honeycomb sheet formed by a plurality of interconnected hexagon cells arranged in rows. The hexagon cells are made up of sidewalls, each sidewall formed by two surfaces that converge at a top of the sidewall and diverge from the top to a bottom of the sidewall such that a thickness of the sidewalls increases from top to bottom and an angle forms between the two surfaces at the top of the sidewall. In an example, the angle is about 8 degrees. The honeycomb sheet can be coated with a magnetic, composite coating to increase electromagnetic shielding. An example coating includes magnetic multi-granular nanoclusters (MGNC) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT). A base layer can be attached to the honeycomb sheet for mechanical stability and additional absorption. The device is suitable for radar absorbing materials (RAM) for aerospace and military applications.
