Abstract: A method for data visualization is provided. The method comprises receiving an input comprising a number of search parameters and then creating a cache node for the number of search parameters in the database, wherein the cache node comprises a first reference associated with the number of search parameters. Then identifying a number of search results related to the number of search parameters and storing the number of search results related to the number of search parameters in the cache node. Further, identifying a number of visualization options related to the number of search results stored in the cache node, wherein each visualization option comprises a second reference associated with the cache node.

Abstract: A respiratory training device providing both inspiratory and expiratory functional evaluation and training, as well as independent regulation of both the inspiratory and expiratory airway resistance levels used during training. The respiratory training device also includes data acquisition, recording, storage, retrieval and display functions for airway pressure monitoring data to provide functional evaluation, physiological monitoring, and diagnostic features. The respiratory training device allows the user to easily develop and follow precise and advanced training protocols, and utilize the respiratory device in both the clinical and home setting.

Abstract: A method for Point-in-Time Visualization system management is provided. The method comprises receiving organizational structure queries from user interfaces, creating organizational hierarchy database queries from the organizational structure query, and converting the results of those queries into entity change parameters lists and organizational tree structures for display on the user interface. The displayed organizational tree structure and entity change parameters can be filtered via controls available on the user interface.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for entity resolution is provided. The method comprises receiving a number of different entity identifiers and grouping the entity identifiers into a number of entity pairs. The entity pairs are fed into a match generator filter that determines a similarity score for each entity pair according to a number of similarity algorithms. Potentially matching entity pairs comprising a subset of the entity pairs that have similarity scores above a first specified threshold are then fed into a machine learning model that determines a confidence score for each potentially matching entity pair. The machine learning model identifies matched entities that comprise a subset of the potentially matching entity pairs that have confidence scores above a second specified threshold.

Abstract: A method for visualizing corporate hierarchies is provided. The method comprises receiving a selection of a first company stored in a database and retrieving, from the database, an ultimate parent company of the first company. All other known companies with the same ultimate parent company as the first company are then retrieved from the database. An interactive hierarchical tree diagram is displayed in an interface, wherein the first company, the ultimate parent company, and the other known companies with the same ultimate parent company are displayed as nodes according to parent/child relationships among the companies. Also displayed in the interface, adjacent to the tree diagram, is a collapsible nested tree list comprising the first company, the ultimate parent company, and the other known companies with the same ultimate parent company. The tree diagram and nested tree list have synchronized responses to user input.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for visualizing a supply chain is provided. The method comprises receiving a selection of a first company stored in a database and retrieving, from the database, a first number of consignment companies that buy products from the first company. A second number of consignment companies that buy products from the first number of consignment companies are retrieved from the database. The method further comprises retrieving, from the database, a first number of supplier companies that sell products to the first company and then retrieving, from the database, a second number of supplier companies that sell products to the first number of supplier companies. A supply chain tree diagram is displayed in an interface, wherein the consignment companies and supplier companies are displayed as nodes branching from the first company.

Abstract: A method of treating endothelial dysfunction in a subject can include: identifying damage in an endothelial glycocalyx (EGX) of the subject, and administering to the subject a combination of a nitric oxide (NO) precursor and a hydrogen sulfide (H2S) precursor in an amount and at a frequency sufficient to stabilize and reverse damage in the EGX. A therapeutic composition for treating endothelial dysfunction can include a combination of a nitric oxide (NO) precursor and a hydrogen sulfide (H2S) precursor in an amount sufficient to sustain an increase of bioavailable NO for the treatment of endothelial dysfunction, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

Abstract: A method of treating a vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque can include identifying the vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque and administering a sulfated polysaccharide, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, to a subject in an amount and at a frequency sufficient to stabilize and reverse a vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque.

Abstract: A system is described that includes communications modules, a wearable device, and an application running on a processor of a computing platform. The system includes placing each communications module at a location in a premises, wherein each communications module periodically transmits a unique number, wherein the application detects and stores each unique number. The system includes the application organizing linking information by linking each unique number with a function and transmitting the linking information to the wearable device. The wearable device may detect a transmission of a communications module and use information of the transmission to identify the communications module's unique number. The wearable device may use the linking information to identify the corresponding function and perform the function when at least one criterion is met.

Abstract: In one embodiment of the present invention a mobile bearing knee prosthesis may include an interface (e.g., a spherical radius interface) comprised of a concave superior surface on a tibial tray and a convex inferior surface on a tibial insert. In another embodiment of the present invention a mobile bearing knee prosthesis may include an interface (e.g., a spherical radius interface) comprised of a convex superior surface on a tibial tray and a concave inferior surface on a tibial insert. In another embodiment of the present invention a mobile bearing knee prosthesis may include a biconcave interface (e.g., having a “wave” like surface geometry). This “wave” like surface geometry may be at the interface between a tibial insert and a tibial tray in the mobile bearing knee (as opposed to the interface between the tibial insert and a femoral component).
