Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method and/or computer program product embodiments, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for classifying media accounts of a media system into different demographic buckets based on media content data associated with the media accounts, where media content associated with a media account can be accessed by a plurality of members in a household of the media account. A demographic classifier can receive a plurality of media accounts, a plurality of sets of probability scores corresponding to the plurality of media accounts, and a plurality of demographic buckets. The demographic classifier can further estimate, based on public available information, an approximate number of media accounts of the plurality of media accounts belonging to a specific demographic bucket.

Abstract: A nitric oxide delivery system, which includes a gas bottle having nitrogen dioxide in air, converts nitrogen dioxide to nitric oxide and employs a surface-active material, such as silica gel, coated with an aqueous solution of antioxidant, such as ascorbic acid. A nitric oxide delivery system may be used to generate therapeutic gas including nitric oxide for use in delivering the therapeutic gas to a mammal.

Abstract: A device and method for calibrating a delivery device includes providing a container A containing a nitrite, providing a container B containing an acid, releasing the contents of containers A and B, allowing the nitrite and acid to mix, waiting for a predetermined time, allowing air to combine with the mixture, and using NO and traces of NO2 to check and calibrate NO and NO2 sensors.

Abstract: Various systems and devices for generating nitric oxide are disclosed herein. According to one embodiment, the device includes a body having an inlet, an outlet, and a porous solid matrix positioned with the body. The porous solid matrix is coated with an aqueous solution of an antioxidant, wherein the inlet is configured to receive a gas flow and fluidly communicate the gas flow to the outlet through the solid matrix to convert nitrogen dioxide in the gas flow into nitric oxide. The porous solid matrix allows the device to be used in any orientation. Additionally, the porous solid matrix provides a rigid structure suitable to withstand vibrations and abuse without compromising device functionality.

Abstract: A system for delivering a therapeutic amount of nitric oxide can include a reservoir containing a nitrogen dioxide source. A heating element can be configured to heat the reservoir, causing nitrogen dioxide vapor to exit the reservoir through a restrictor into a conduit. The nitrogen dioxide vapor can mix with gas from a gas supply, which can then flow to a cartridge that includes a surface-activated material saturated with an aqueous solution of a reducing agent. The cartridge can convert the nitrogen dioxide into nitric oxide.
