  • Publication number: 20240344691
    Abstract: An umbrella handle lamp capable of carrying out projection includes an umbrella handle, a lamp assembly and a connecting assembly. The lamp assembly being movably arranged at the tail of the umbrella handle through the connecting assembly. The umbrella handle lamp capable of carrying out projection also includes a projection lens group and a fixed assembly. The lamp assembly includes a shell. The upper part of the shell is provided with a battery cabin for batteries to enter. A lower end face of the shell is provided with a lens cabin for the projection lens group to enter. The projection lens group is connected with the shell through the fixed assembly. The projection lens group is arranged in front of the bulb, so that the projection patterns can be formed at the irradiation position when an umbrella is used.

  • Patent number: 12110555
    Abstract: This invention provides methods of diagnosis, predicting and diagnosing susceptibility to, predicting disease progression and treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's disease and/or subtypes of Crohn's disease (CD) and/or Ulcerative Colitis (UC). In one embodiment, a method of the invention is practiced by determining the presence or absence of the genetic variants NOD2, TLR8, TLR2, CARD8, CARD15 and/or JAK3 to diagnose, predict and diagnose susceptibility and predict disease progression in an individual. In another embodiment, a method of the invention is practiced by determining the presence or absence of anti-Cbir1, anti-OmpC, ASCA, anti-I2 and/or pANCA in an individual. In another embodiment, the invention further associates the presence or absence of the risk variants with the expression of anti-Cbir1, anti-OmpC, ASCA, anti-I2 and/or pANCA for the diagnosis, prediction of susceptibility, prediction of disease progression and/or treatment of IBD, including CD and/or UC.

  • Patent number: 11294011
    Abstract: Methods, devices, apparatus and systems for magnetic resonance imaging with deep neural networks are provided. In one aspect, a method of magnetic resonance imaging method combines a deep neural network and an accelerated imaging manner. The method includes: scanning a subject with a first undersampling factor and a first sampling trajectory to obtain first imaging information, processing the first imaging information with the deep neural network to obtain second imaging information corresponding to a second undersampling factor that is smaller than the first undersampling factor, and reconstructing a magnetic resonance image of the subject from the second imaging information.
