Publication number: 20250064383Abstract: Systems and methods for mapping wound features of a wound bed and also detecting degradation of electrode or connectivity performances are provided. Electrical measurements are collected from an array of electrodes which apply electrical signals to a periwound tissue outside the wound bed. The electrical measurements are processed to generate an impedance map of the wound bed, which is converted to maps conveying spatial distributions of clinical metrics.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 13, 2022Publication date: February 27, 2025Inventors: Zhijie Zhu, Stephen M. Kennedy, Sadaf Charkhabi, Jeffrey G. Zinn, Howard M. Kaplan, Kevin T. Reddy, Shawn C. Dodds, Dawn V. Muyres, Elias Wilken-Resman, Lindsey L. Hines, James D. Carlson, Done Demirgoz

Patent number: 12235577Abstract: Methods of forming an array of patterns on a substrate are provided. An array of protective tiles formed from a protectant resin is provided to cover an array of sub-regions on the substrate. An array of patterns is formed on the substrate by sequentially repeating steps (i) and (ii) for each sub-region: (i) removing the protective tile from one of the sub-regions to expose the first major surface underneath; and (ii) forming a pattern on the exposed first major surface within the one of the sub-regions.Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 2021Date of Patent: February 25, 2025Assignee: 3M INNOVATIVE PROPERTIES COMPANYInventors: Lucas J. Hunt, Ashley R. Sonnier, James Zhu, Edwin L. Kusilek, Paul B. Armstrong, William B. Kolb, Caleb T. Nelson, Jeffrey L. Solomon, James M. Nelson, Samuel R. Hei, David J.

Patent number: 12229945Abstract: A template for assigning the most probable root causes for wafer defects. The bin map data for a subject wafer can be compared with bin map data for prior wafers to find wafers with similar issues. A probability can be determined as to whether the same root cause should be applied to the subject wafer, and if so, the wafer can be labeled with that root cause accordingly.Type: GrantFiled: August 3, 2023Date of Patent: February 18, 2025Assignee: PDF Solutions, Inc.Inventors: Tomonori Honda, Lin Lee Cheong, Richard Burch, Qing Zhu, Jeffrey Drue David, Michael Keleher

Patent number: 12221610Abstract: The present disclosure relates to RNAi agents, for example, double stranded RNAi agents, able to inhibit HIF-2 alpha (EPAS1) gene expression. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions that include HIF-2 alpha RNAi agents and methods of use thereof. The HIF-2 alpha RNAi agents disclosed herein may be linked or conjugated to targeting ligands (such as compounds that have affinity for integrins, including alpha-v-beta-3 and alpha-v-beta-5 integrins) and pharmacokinetic (PK) enhancers, to facilitate the delivery to cells and tissues, including to clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) cells and tumors. Delivery of compositions comprising the HIF-2 alpha RNAi agents in vivo provides for inhibition of HIF-2 alpha gene expression. The HIF-2 alpha RNAi agents can be used in methods of treatment of various diseases and disorders, including ccRCC.Type: GrantFiled: January 8, 2020Date of Patent: February 11, 2025Assignee: Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals, Inc.Inventors: Zhen Li, Dongxu Shu, Anthony Nicholas, Rui Zhu, Jeffrey Carlson, So Wong, Xiaokai Li, Erich Altenhofer, Matthew Fowler-Watters, Bo Chen
