Abstract: An external orthopedic fixation device. The external orthopedic device includes a radius fixing member, a metacarpus fixing member, and a coupling member. The radius fixing member is configured to be secured to a radius bone of a patient. The metacarpus fixing member is configured to be secured to a metacarpus bone of the patient. The coupling member is disposed between the radius fixing member and the metacarpus fixing member. The coupling member is configured to connect the radius fixing member and the metacarpus fixing member.

Abstract: Systems and methods for evaluation of entity health for a product are described. In some embodiments, a computing system can receive data defining values of a group of diagnostic signals pertaining to a domain of a product of an entity. The computing system can then generate attributes indicative of entity health condition in the domain by applying a machine-learning model to the data. The attributes can include a health reward parameter and a signal strength parameter. The computing system also can encode the health reward parameter in a particular marking according to a marking schema. The computing system can further cause presentation of the particular marking and/or the signal strength parameter.

Abstract: Disclosed herein a system and a method to detect an amputee's hand muscles movements for controlling an artificial limb prosthesis. The system may comprise a plurality of passive tag positions and wearable band with a plurality of on-board position readers. The plurality of on-board position readers may be configured to capture data associated with a first plurality of passive tags positions at a first moment, and capture data associated with a second plurality of passive tags positions at a second moment. The system may further include one or more processors configured to detect at least one of the muscle contraction, the muscle relaxation, and the muscle inactivity based on the data captured at the first moment and at the second moment, and thereby control the artificial hand prosthesis movements responsive to detection at least one of the muscle contraction, the muscle relaxation, and the muscle inactivity.

Abstract: A method and a device for replacing radioulnar joint are disclosed. The method may include inserting a distal stem into a distal part of the ulna bone, and inserting a proximal stem into the proximal part of the ulna bone. In addition, the method may include inserting a stem insertion part located at a proximal end of a mobile locker into the cylindrical-shaped opening of the proximal stem. The method further includes twisting the mobile locker so that the first semicircle-shaped opening and the second semicircle-shaped opening are aligned such that a spherical cavity is formed between the mobile locker, and inserting a mobile globe into the spherical cavity.

Abstract: In accordance with one embodiment, a market influence analysis engine assesses the potential market influence of digital media content items and/or the influence of associated content creators. The market influence analysis engine identifies digital media content items associated with at least one user-provided content descriptor, sorts the identified digital media content items into different groups such that the digital media content items in each group are associated with a different one of the plurality of content creators. The market influence analysis engine further calculates an influence score associated with each one of the content creators that is based on consumer influence metrics. A subset of the groups for which the calculated influence score satisfies a predetermined influence threshold is identified and information representing such groups is transmitted for presentation to a user interface.
