  • Publication number: 20240299491
    Abstract: Knee pain caused by osteoarthritis is relieved by modifying the shape change of bone(s) underlying articular cartilage, by a method comprising evaluating the bone shape of the patient's joint, injecting the patient with a peptide of SEQ ID No. 1 or applying other therapeutic interventions that can reduce the shape change of the bone(s) underlying articular cartilage, and thereafter evaluating the bone shape of the patient's joint.

  • Publication number: 20240265481
    Abstract: System and method for generating content suitable for specific uses in specific fields, such as for instructional documents, based on other input sources. Content is extracted from at least one input source by an extraction module. An analyzer module determines whether the content meets at least one standard used in the field for the specific use. If the standard(s) is not met, a transformation module transforms the content to meet the standard. In some embodiments, a user can edit and/or approve the content. The system detects further violations of the standard(s) while the user edits the content and displays a recommended transformation. When the user approves of the content, a content package comprising all, or part of, the content is generated. In some embodiments, the approved output content is stored for reuse in other content packages/projects and/or by other users.

  • Patent number: 12041138
    Abstract: Techniques for synthetic accuracy measurement of a content recognition system are described. According to some examples, a computer-implemented method includes generating, by a provider network, a reference fingerprint for a secondary content (e.g., advertisement) media file; generating, by the provider network, a synthetic fingerprint for a transformed version of the secondary content media file; inserting, by the provider network, the synthetic fingerprint into a stream of fingerprints of a plurality of media files; comparing, by a comparison service of the provider network, the stream of fingerprints including the synthetic fingerprint to the reference fingerprint to generate an indication of a match between the synthetic fingerprint and the reference fingerprint in the stream; and sending the indication of the match to a storage location.

  • Publication number: 20230242972
    Abstract: The present invention provides an improved capacitive bead sensor for detection and/or quantification of target analytes in a sample, with a detection limit down to single-beads, which is re-usable for multiple bead tests, or for a continuous flow of beads, and which is easily manufacturable and automatable. It enables sensitivity down to single molecule detection without the need for enzymatic amplification such as PCR, by use of various structural advantages and electronic signal amplification techniques that further allow for multiplex target detection not only across various nucleic acid targets but across entire target classes allowing for simultaneous detection of viral nucleic acids and host antibodies to that virus for example.

  • Publication number: 20190204795
    Abstract: A system selectively activates and deactivates delivery of power to a device by a power outlet using a pulsed sequence of on commands delivered at randomized intervals. The on commands may be sent by any number of sending devices. So long as a receiving device continues to receive on signals from any sending device on a selected channel, the receiving device will remain switched on and deliver power from the power outlet to a connected load. If the receiving device either (a) receives an off signal on the selected channel, or (b) stops receiving on signals on the selected channel for a timeout period, the receiving device will switch off and stop delivering power to the connected load.

  • Patent number: 9452007
    Abstract: A cannulated driver includes a handle, a barrel coupled to the handle, and a drive tip coupled to the barrel and having an outer surface and an engagement end that engages within a head of a cannulated screw. The driver is configured to removably retain a corresponding cannulated screw onto the driver. The drive tip includes a passageway disposed generally in a radial direction with respect to the driver's longitudinal axis. An engagement pin is movably mounted for travel in the passageway between an extended position wherein an exposable end of the pin protrudes radially beyond the outer surface of the drive tip and a retracted position wherein the pin does not thus protrude. In the extended position, the exposable end of the pin protrudes into a corresponding recess in the head of a special cannulated screw to removably retain the screw onto the driver.
