  • Patent number: 12235943
    Abstract: Determining a level of congruence between modality-event characteristics is disclosed. Information can be collected from an event input source via one or more information collection modalities. Modality-event characteristics can be determined from this information. A level of congruence between the modality-event characteristics can be determined to enable initiating a response based on the level of congruence. The level of congruence can be based on satisfying a rule related to congruence between modality-event characteristics, user profile information, etc. The level of congruence can be related to a probability that the several inputs collected for an event, collected by a plurality of modalities, embody characteristics that are associated with the event occurring according to determined notions embodied in the rule and profile. Determining the level of congruence can support assertions that each input, across differing modes of capturing said input, accords with the expected inputs for an event.

  • Publication number: 20240053190
    Abstract: A system includes a processor, and a display, a reader, a switch, a scale, a memory device, intake-type buttons and output-type buttons that are connected to the processor. The processor controls the display to display an identification number obtained by using the reader to read an identifier. The switch is operated to enable the processor to operate in an intake mode or an output mode. When operating in the intake (output) mode, the processor controls the display to display a symbol corresponding to one of the intake-type (output-type) buttons that is determined to be pressed, and in response to receipt of weight data from the scale, controls the display to display a value of pre-intake (post-output) weight obtained based on the weight data, and stores the value of pre-intake (post-output) weight in the memory device.

  • Publication number: 20220233649
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a dosage forms and combinations of dosage forms useful for effective oral administration of drugs which are otherwise unsuitable for oral administration, owing to acid- and/or protease-mediated degradation. The dosage forms include a self-microemulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS) with which the drug is combined and an antacid. When co-administered to a mammal, the dosage form(s) can prevent drug degradation by the strong acid and digestive enzymes normally present in the gastric environment, and can improve water-soluble drug absorption in gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The dosage forms can be used to effectively administer insulin by an oral route, for example, such as in the form of a powder that can be stored for long periods and reconstituted with water or another fluid shortly before administration.
