Publication number: 20250093000Abstract: A portable illumination apparatus such as, for example, a task light, that is lightweight and compact to provide enhanced illumination in an ambient environment when placed in one of a plurality of operating modes. The portable illumination apparatus includes a support base and a light module that includes one or more light sources and a rechargeable power source. The light module may be manually manipulated for movement between a collapsed, stowed position and a deployed position by rotation of about a first rotational axis. In the deployed position, the light module is rotatable about the second rotational axis that is perpendicular to the first rotational axis. The support base incorporates a carabiner clip member that facilitates secure attachment of the portable illumination apparatus to an object or surface in a manner that facilitates hands-free use of the portable illumination apparatus.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 5, 2024Publication date: March 20, 2025Inventors: Tao WANG, Karen M. BAUMEISTER, Jonathan KIRKPATRICK, Xiaotian ZENG, Ling YANG, Timothy J. PAYNE

Patent number: 9128099Abstract: Methods for determining the presence or amount of a complex comprising a first and second molecular entity are provided, preferably an sFlt-1:PlGF complex. A determination of the presence or amount of the complex can be used in methods for predicting, detecting, monitoring a disease, or guiding therapy in respect to a disease such as vascular, vascular-related disease, cardiac, cardiac-related disease, cancer, cancer-related disease, preeclampsia, and preeclampsia-related disease. Determining sFlt-1:angiogenic factor complex is particularly useful for predicting and detecting preeclampsia in early stages of gestation and in stages of the disease where clinical evaluation may be uninformative.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2014Date of Patent: September 8, 2015Assignee: Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics, Inc.Inventors: George Bashirians, Deborah Byrne, Sarah Groulx, Sharon Jackson, Heather Lane-Brown, Banumathi Sankaran, Edward Scalice, Karen Yang, Jian Zheng
