Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for monitoring and restricting smartphone usage among children, enhancing parental oversight and mental health support. The system includes internet-connected central servers executing monitoring software from non-transitory media, paired with specialized child devices and generic parental devices. These devices facilitate real-time and recorded monitoring of smartphone activities, including application usage, screen time, and internet access. The child devices are equipped with customized operating systems and software that prevent bypassing parental controls. Parental devices can access detailed analytics and live streams of child device activity. The system also incorporates machine learning algorithms to trigger mental health checks based on application usage patterns.

Abstract: Spring-integrated rotors are disclosed. A disclosed example apparatus includes a bracket defining a first rotational axis and coupled to a motor for rotating the bracket about the first rotational axis, a pivot body defining a second rotational axis extending along a direction different than the first rotational axis, the pivot body coupled to the bracket for rotation about the second rotational axis, and at least one spring device positioned at the bracket, the at least one spring device urging the pivot body toward a central position when the bracket is rotating.

Abstract: A pedal assembly, including an upper housing and a lower housing with an upper surface positioned below the upper housing. A receiving cavity is positioned in the lower housing, with at least a portion positioned below the upper surface in the pedal assembly vertical direction. A pedal arm having a pivot end and an opposite pedal pad, pivotally coupled to the upper housing at the pivot end. The pedal arm is movable between a stowed position and a use position, wherein in the stowed position, the pedal pad is positioned in the receiving cavity and below the upper surface in the pedal assembly vertical direction such that access to the pedal pad is prohibited. In the use position, the pedal pad is positioned above the receiving cavity and the upper surface in the pedal assembly vertical direction such that access to the pedal pad is permitted.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for minimizing computational resources when copying data. The method includes: receiving a first set of data from a first data source including portions (a) used to compute a well-being scoring, and (b) not used to compute the well-being scoring; copying non-numerical data items included in the portion used to compute the well-being scoring to an aggregate data structure; and, for each numerical data item in the portion used to compute the well-being scoring: assigning a first data type to the numerical data item if it complies with the first data type, otherwise assigning a second data type to the numerical data item, where the first data type uses less bytes than the second data type, and copying, by the processor, the numerical data item to the aggregate data structure, wherein the well-being scoring is calculated for the member based on the aggregate data structure.

Abstract: This invention relates to compositions and methods for achieving and maintaining maximal analgesic effect following intra-articular administration of corticosteroid formulations. The invention also describes extended release, e.g., controlled- or sustained-release corticosteroid formulations, including extended release, e.g., controlled- or sustained-release formulations of triamcinolone acetonide (TCA), fluticasone propionate, cortisol, ciclesonide (monopropionate), beclometasone diproprionate, dexamethasone, flunisolide, budesonide, desisobutyryl-ciclesonide, and/or mometasone furoate, that produce a maximal analgesic effect greater than the acute analgesic effect provided by standard corticosteroid suspensions, including non-extended release corticosteroid suspensions, and that are also associated with a clinically insignificant effect on endogenous cortisol production following administration, for example, intra-articular, intrathecal, epidural, intra-bursal, or other local administration.

Abstract: A method and system is described for implementing patient care management functionality. The disclosure includes querying a set of clinical rules and obtaining claims data containing clinical information relating to a plurality of patients. The system can identify patients that would benefit from care management and create a listing of markers, or conditions, associated with each identified patient based on the claims data containing clinical information relating to the patient. The system generates an individual care plan for a patient base on the identified markers and the claims data containing clinical information relating to the patient.
