Abstract: A method of determining a microvascular resistance score indicating perfusion of myocardial tissue in a body of a mammal is provided, comprising obtaining acquired blood pressure data and flow data of blood in a cardiac vessel while the mammal is in a first physiological state; obtaining throughflow data indicative of a geometry the cardiac vessel; generating adjusted blood pressure data and adjusted flow data corresponding to a second physiological state, based on the acquired blood pressure value and the first physiological state; generating the microvascular resistance score, based on the adjusted blood pressure data, the adjusted flow data and the throughflow data; and providing, through an electronic output signal, the microvascular resistance score for display on an electronic display module.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for using of a single source codebase synchronized between two divergent computing environments. In some embodiments, a version control repository may be utilized to track changes to mainframe source code and synchronize the changed mainframe source code files with a set of source code files stored in the version control repository.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a frame configured to hold sample holders in an array, a longitudinal axis of the sample holder extending outward of an array plane; a drive section connected to the frame; at least one transfer arm rotatably connected to the drive section so that each transfer arm rotates about a rotation axis oriented substantially parallel with the longitudinal axis and includes a sample holder gripper; and at least one push member movably connected to the drive section and being distinct from the sample holder gripper and configured for linear movement along the longitudinal axis, the at least one push member being configured so that engagement with at least a bottom or top surface of the sample holder effects longitudinal translation of the sample holder for one or more of capture and release of the sample holder by the respective transfer arm in the longitudinal direction.

Abstract: A drop ceiling tile installation tool is provided for facilitating installation of ceiling tiles into a drop ceiling. The tool includes a pole and a connector coupled to a first end of the pole. A plurality of support arms is coupled to and extends outwardly from the connector. The support arms include a pair of upper support arms and a pair of lower support arms. A pair of hooks is coupled to and extends from distal ends the lower support arms relative to the connector whereby the hooks are configured for receiving and supporting an edge of a ceiling tile. A pair of tile support panels is coupled to distal ends of the upper support arms relative to the connector whereby the tile support panels are configured for supporting a bottom surface of a ceiling tile when the edge of the ceiling tile is received by the pair of hooks.

Abstract: The toothbrush includes a handle and a head, the handle forming two bodies (1) and (2) provided with overlapping sectors (3), which permit the axial displacement, one with respect to the other, the body (1) constituting a container (4) for the toothpaste, which can be projected toward the exit (14) through a duct (7-8), in which are defined two sectors, one rigid (7) and the other flexible (8), the latter of the bellows type, sector (7) ending in a one-way valve (12-13), which tends permanently toward the closed position and which, while permitting the passage of the toothpaste toward the exit (14), blocks the return of the toothpaste in the backward direction axially of the body (1). An embolus (15) fills up the inside of the body (1), compensating for the dose of toothpaste which is supplied, while in the exit (14) a manually operated valve (17) is incorporated in the cylinder provided in an diametral orifice (18), which can be made to align with or not align with the exit orifice (14).
