Abstract: Methods and devices for tissue graft fixation include fixation devices attached to an adjustable fixation loop of suture without compromising the graft or requiring additional material to complete the repair. Other fixation devices are attachable to an independent adjustable suture system. Adjustable fixation loops minimize slip/creep of the suture within the loop.

Abstract: A vehicle tether structure includes a vehicle body structure, a seat and a tether bracket. The vehicle body structure includes an upright wall that at least partially defines a passenger compartment. The seat is installed to the passenger compartment adjacent to the upright wall. The tether bracket has an upright portion that is removably attached to the upright wall proximate an upper end of the seat. The tether bracket also has a horizontal portion that includes tether receiving openings for attachment thereto by a child seat.

Abstract: A tether structure includes a seat assembly and a support bracket. The seat assembly has a frame structure and an outer cushion portion. The support bracket is installed to an upper end of the frame structure of the seat assembly. The support bracket includes a tether flange located rearward of the frame structure adjacent to a top surface of the outer cushion portion of the seat assembly.

Abstract: The disclosure provides a molecule comprising a regulation domain comprising an E2 ubiquitin or ubiquitin-like conjugating domain which has an amino acid sequence having at least 80% sequence identity to a human E2 ubiquitin or ubiquitin-like domain, and a targeting domain capable of targeting the regulation domain to a substrate. Also provided are polynucleotides encoding such molecules, methods of identifying and producing the same, and related pharmaceutical compositions and kits suitable for use, among other things, in treating or preventing a disease and/or condition in a subject that is mediated by a dysregulated substrate.

Abstract: Aspects herein are directed to a sock comprising a first material layer having a first elasticity. The sock comprises a welt area comprising a collar; a leg portion having a front area and a rear area; a heel portion extending below the leg portion; a foot portion extending from heel portion; and at least one pocket structure in at least one of the leg portion or the collar.

Abstract: A harvesting assembly for harvesting a tissue graft from surrounding tissue is disclosed including a guide. The guide includes a means for fixedly engaging with an anterior surface of the tendon. The guide also includes a means of guiding a cutting blade along a preferred trajectory into and along a length of the tendon. The guide also includes a means of guiding a truncating blade along a preferred trajectory across a width of tendon. The cutting blade may include two parallel blades for forming lateral sides of the tendon graft simultaneously. Each of the two parallel blades may define a leading edge that extends along at least a 90 degree arc that is equidistant from a stop on the cutting blade. The stop in combination with the guide may limit a cut depth into the tendon for a range of cutting blade handle elevation angles.

Abstract: Aspects herein are directed to a sock of a first material having a first elasticity. The sock comprises a welt area forming a collar; a leg portion having a front area and a back area; a heel portion extending below the leg portion; a foot portion extending from heel portion; and a first pull loop comprising a strip adhesively coupled to the sock at the back area, the strip having a second elasticity, wherein the second elasticity is less than the first elasticity.

Abstract: A motorized children's toy with capacitive touch interactivity. The children's toy includes a toy body with motorized wheels and a plurality of user input areas with capacitive touch sensors. The motorized wheels are configured to operate in response to a sequence of user interaction with the user input areas and spin the toy body in according to the sequence of user interaction with the user input areas. The children's toy also includes light and/or sound emitting devices which activate in response to user interactions with the user input areas.

Abstract: A patient support apparatus for use in treating patients with behavioral health indicia, including a base supporting wheels for movement along a floor surface, a litter for supporting a patient, and a lift mechanism to move the litter relative to the base between a lowered position and a raised position. A skirt barrier having a bottom edge defining a periphery is operatively attached to the litter for concurrent movement with the litter between an exposed configuration and a shield configuration. The exposed configuration corresponds to the raised position and is defined with the bottom edge spaced vertically above the base. The shield configuration corresponds to the lowered position and is defined with the bottom edge arranged adjacent to the floor surface and with the periphery extending around the base to at least partially limit external access to the base.

Abstract: A method and system enables language translation and routing of Person-to-Person (P2P) messages. Customer messages are diverted to various alternate destinations in an enterprise based on the language of the messages. Enterprise alternate destinations include language capable call center customer service representatives (CSRs), language specialized call centers, and personnel in various departments in an enterprise having language skills. The CSRs and other personnel can communicate through the call centers or using data enabled devices. Information collected from the messages can be used to determine the appropriate destination.
