Abstract: The present disclosure relates to gait-related devices and methods.

Abstract: Described in this disclosure are devices, systems and methods including an article of manufacture for attachment to a foot or footwear comprising a trapezoidal shaped apparatus, wherein the trapezoidal shaped apparatus has a front, a back, wide end, a narrow end, a length, a thickness, a medial edge, and a lateral edge, and wherein the trapezoidal shaped apparatus has a plurality of distinct ridges on its lateral and medial edges.

Abstract: Provided are devices for stabilizing a tube (e.g., a drainage tube such as a chest tube) in the body of a subject. The devices can comprise a base (102) configured to be secured to a patient comprising a patient contacting surface (104), an opposing top surface (106), a proximal end (108), a distal end (110), a tube-securing region (112), and a central reference plane (114); and one or more securement features (116, 118, 120) positioned within the tube-securing region. The one or more securement features (116, 118, 120) can be configured to reversibly engage the tube, such that when the tube is engaged by the one or more securement features (116, 118, 120), the tube is retained relative to the base (102).

Abstract: This method provides a method relating to pluripotent stem cells, such as embryonic stem cells, to make the cells widely accessible but provide sufficient financial incentive to the provider of the cells. The method comprises obtaining the pluripotent stem cells and making the cells widely available to the public such that profit and non-profit institutions can afford research and commercial access to the cells.

Abstract: The invention features nucleic acid molecules and, in particular, DNA molecules having catalytic activity, as well as methods for obtaining and using such nucleic acid molecules.

Abstract: Disclosed are single-stranded DNA molecules which bind adenosine or an adenosine-5'-phosphate and methods for their production and isolation. Also disclosed are methods for producing and isolating related catalytic DNA molecules.
