Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for selecting ads for a video. The program and method provide for receiving a request for an ad to insert into a video playing on a client device, the request including a first content identifier that identifies a first type of content included in the video; determining a set of content identifiers associated with the first content identifier, the set of content identifiers identifying second types of content to filter with respect to providing the ad in response to the request; selecting an ad from among plural ads, by filtering ads tagged with a second content identifier included in the set of content identifiers; and providing the selected ad as a response to the request.

Abstract: An expandable intervertebral implant is provided for insertion into an intervertebral space defined by adjacent vertebrae. The expandable intervertebral implant includes a pair of outer sleeve portions and an inner core disposed between the outer sleeve portions. Movement of the inner core relative to the outer sleeve portions causes the outers sleeve portions to deflect away from each other, thereby engaging the expandable intervertebral implant with the vertebrae and adjusting the height of the intervertebral space.

Abstract: A disposable patient interface includes a reusable sensor that removably mounts within a shoe of the disposable patient interface when at least one protrusion on opposite ends of the sensor removably lock with corresponding at least one aperture on opposite portions of the shoe. The patient interface includes a compliant structure which conforms to a patient's body upon placement thereon without causing wrinkles in the compliant structure so as to maximize adhesion of the compliant structure against skin on the patient's body when the compliant structure is conformed to muscle underlying skin on the patient's body.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for receiving a request for lookalike data, the request for lookalike data comprising seed data and generating sample data from the seed data and from user data for a plurality of users, to use in a lookalike model training. The systems and methods further provide for capturing a snapshot of social graph data for a plurality of users and computing social graph features based on the seed data and the user data for the plurality of users, training a lookalike model based on the sample data and the computed social graph features to generate a trained lookalike model, generating a lookalike score for each user of the plurality of users in the user data using the trained lookalike model, and generating a list comprising a unique identifier for each user of the plurality of users and an associated lookalike score for each unique identifier.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel designer osteogenic proteins having altered affinity for a cognate receptor, nucleic acids encoding the same, and methods of use therefor. More preferably, the novel designer osteogenic proteins are designer BMPs and have altered affinity for a cognate BMP receptor. The designer BMPs demonstrate altered biological characteristics and provide potential useful novel therapeutics.

Abstract: One or more connectors insertable into a surgical incision to couple rods together. The connector may include one or more bushings or joints to displace the one or more rods in one or more directions to a variety of orientations. One or more fasteners and/or bushings may be used to engage the one or more rods.

Abstract: An expandable intervertebral implant is provided for insertion into an intervertebral space defined by adjacent vertebrae. The expandable intervertebral implant includes a pair of outer sleeve portions and an inner core disposed between the outer sleeve portions. Movement of the inner core relative to the outer sleeve portions causes the outers sleeve portions to deflect away from each other, thereby engaging the expandable intervertebral implant with the vertebrae and adjusting the height of the intervertebral space.

Abstract: A connector for an inflatable garment that detects a valid connection with a pump.

Abstract: An intervertebral implant includes a three-dimensional body and a securing plate. The three-dimensional body includes a front surface and a rear surface. The three-dimensional body further includes a plurality of boreholes for accommodating fixation elements. The intervertebral implant also includes a front plate disposed at the front surface of the three-dimensional body and has a plurality of boreholes. A securing plate can be fastened to the front plate.

Abstract: The intervertebral implant is in the form of a three-dimensional structure (10) comprising (a) a top side (1) and an underside (2) which are designed to rest against the end plates of two adjacent vertebras, (b) a left side face (3) and a right side face (4), (c) a front face (5) and a rear face (6), (d) a horizontal center plane situated between the top side (1) and the underside (2), (e) a vertical center plane (8) situated between the left side face (3) and the right side face (8) and (0 a plurality of boreholes (9) passing through the implant structure (10) that are designed to receive longitudinal affixation elements (20), the axes (19) of said elements intersecting the horizontal center plane (7). At least one of the boreholes (9) is designed in a manner that the affixation element (10) received in it can be rigidly connected to the intervertebral implant. Said connection is implemented using a thread or by matching conical surfaces.
