Abstract: Systems and methods for collecting patient data for a selected group of patients and providing the patient data in an informative manner to medical care providers are provided. The systems and methods can receive patient data from electronic medical records and/or other sources, aggregate the data, and analyze the data to provide the data to medical providers in a usable format. The systems and methods can further analyze the aggregate patient data based on physiological criterion to identify the incidence of triggering events. The systems and methods can further generate a prioritized list of patients for attention by medical providers based on the occurrence of triggering events or other data indicators.

Abstract: A device for chip-producing machining of work pieces in the form of pipes and rods, using the whirling method has a whirling unit with a housing, on which an accommodation for a whirling tool with teeth on the inside is mounted so as to rotate. An electromagnetic rotational direct drive has a ring-shaped stator attached to the housing with an essentially U-shaped cross-section, and a rotor configured in the form of a ring-shaped crosspiece provided with permanent magnets, formed onto the accommodation. The rotor is mounted within the U-shaped cross-section of the stator, on the housing side. The stator has a winding for generation of an electromagnetic field, on its inside shank of its U-shaped cross-section that lies opposite the housing.

Abstract: A ring saw including a housing with a whirling assembly, on which a holder for a saw blade with inner teeth connected with a drive is rotatably mounted. A control unit controls the assembly. A vibration meter is disposed on the housing. The whirling assembly has a rotational position transducer for detecting the saw blade's rotational position. An evaluation unit, connected with the vibration meter and the rotational position transducer, is set up so that a vibration progression per saw blade tooth is determined on the basis of the vibration meter and rotational position transducer measurement data. The evaluation unit is connected with the control unit of the whirling assembly, which is set up so that the saw blade penetrates into the work piece with a region of low measured vibration amplitude during the penetration process. A method for controlling a saw blade of a ring saw is also provided.

Abstract: In accordance with embodiments of the invention, a skyward-looking sensor enables classification of points in its hemispherical field of view as either sky, partial sky or not sky, which in turn enables determination from data supplied by the GNSS receiver of whether each satellite in the GNSS antenna's field of view is in a region of sky, partial sky or not sky. Pseudrange and phase data from GNSS satellites determined to be in a region of sky can be considered reliable and used with confidence in a positioning solution. Pseudrange and phase data from GNSS satellites determined to be in a region of partial sky can be considered suspect and can therefore only contribute to a position solution with limited confidence and decreased accuracy. Pseudorange and phase data from GNSS satellites determined to be in a region of no sky can be considered unreliable and excluded from use in a positioning solution.

Abstract: The present application relates to novel heterocyclic compounds, to processes for their preparation, and to their use as crop protection agents, particularly for controlling animal pests.

Abstract: A belt having a body, a tensile member and an outer surface. The body comprises an elastomer. An outer surface of the belt having a profile, foe example teeth. A layer of Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene thermoplastic (UHMWPE) is bonded to the profile surface. The layer bonded to the profile surface having a low softening point allowing it to conform to a mold shape prior to cure of the rubber body material. The layer having a molecular weight in the range of 3-7 million grams per mole. The layer causes the belt to exhibit superior abrasion resistance and flexibility while reducing the cost per belt as compared to fabric jacket belts. The UHMWPE jacket belt has significantly reduced dust and debris production during operation.
