A user is alerted to the one or more deviations.

Abstract: A winch-winding assembly for use with a flatbed winch, for example. The winch-winding assembly can be used for winding tie-down straps. The winch-winding assembly can include a gear system, a drive shaft connected to the gear system in order to cause rotation of the gear system and an engagement arm being configured to engage with and rotate part of the flatbed winch. A drill-support mechanism can be further provided to guide or support a body of a hand-held drill during engagement and rotation of the drive shaft. The engagement arm can comprise a stem and a finger mounted to the stem and being displaceable between a retracted position disengaging the flatbed winch, and an extended position engaging the flatbed winch, to rotate the winch drum in response to rotation of the stem.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the diagnostics of pancreatic cancer. The inventors engineered a novel biomarker discovery approach, tailored for PDAC, which is all-patient inclusive, termed PanEXPEL. This approach offers access to PDAC clinical material before any treatment is applied. The method benefits from clinical biopsy, yet does not interfere with that diagnostic procedure. It can be integrated seamlessly into clinical routine, and is compatible with any type of OMICS profiling. PanEXPEL relies on the interstitial tissue fluid released from the lesion during diagnostic biopsy by endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA). This is the first technique that allows both clinicians and researchers to analyze identical material in the field of proteomics biomarker research. Here, they demonstrate the potential of PanEXPEL methodology by identifying a PDAC early detection signature through proteomics and subsequent statistical learning.
