Abstract: The present invention corresponds to the field of cancer and is related to predicting cancer detection, diagnosis, monitoring and prediction of response to treatment, in particular platelet derived-endothelial cell growth factor (PD-ECGF) levels for their use as a potential value in monitoring disease evolution and predicting response to anti-angiogenic treatment.

Abstract: Computer-based systems and methods for sentiment analysis are disclosed, including a computerized system, comprising one or more non-transitory computer readable medium storing computer executable instructions that, when executed, cause one or more processors to: receive digital employee communications; and determine employee sentiment from the digital employee communications by analyzing the digital employee communications utilizing a language model generated by machine learning algorithms. In some implementations, the executable instructions, when executed, may cause the one or more processors to determine whether the employee communications include indications of employee sentiment about one or more organizational categories and/or may determine trends in or predictions of employee sentiment.

Abstract: A mascara applicator system for simultaneously separating, curling and applying mascara, stored in the system, to eyelashes having a first applicator arm with a brush on one end and a second applicator arm with a circular cylinder comb on one end with some embodiments rotateably connected to a circular U-shaped member to provide articulating surfaces for a human hand with a spring functionally mounted between for bringing the brush and circular cylinder comb on the first and second applicator arms into parallel relationship for being closed on an eyelash and being pull upward from 0-180° and away from the eye to simultaneously apply mascara and curl eyelash. The applicator arm with the brush on it being hinged to move out to 90° for use as a touch up mascara brush and returned back to its position as a first applicator arm in mascara applicator system.

Abstract: Cosmetic product with liposomated growth factors with properties for repairing and rejuvenating the skin which include in the composition thereof high purity liposomated plant growth factors, liposomated antioxidants, liposomated anti-wrinkle peptides and stem cells in addition to other components for cosmetic use.

Abstract: Method for preparing liposomes of retinaldehyde or another precursor of retinoic acid for obtaining liposomes that are phospholipidic in nature containing, at least partially, retinaldehyde or another precursor of retinoic acid as an active agent at a ratio of 0.01% to 1%.

Abstract: Disclosed is a low-pressure air source that provides directional control over a low-pressure airflow. The air source is specifically adapted for use in the application of artificial eyelash extensions to a person's individual eyelashes. An air pump provides low pressure air to an airflow nozzle mounted on the finger of the user. A foot control operates the air pump. The finger nozzle allows the user to direct the airflow without having to grasp the nozzle with the fingers. This allows the user's hands to be free to perform other manual manipulations during the process of adhering artificial lash extensions to a person's individual natural eyelashes.

Abstract: A decorative artificial eyelash hair (10) has an artificial eyelash hair (12) with a base portion (14), a tip portion (16) and an outer surface (18). A decorative applique (20) is adhered to at least a portion of the outer surface (18) of the artificial eyelash hair (12). The applique includes a decorative component (28) fixed to the outer surface (18) of the hair (12) by an adhesive (24). The decorative component (28) is made of very small, reflective particles adhered to the outer surface of the individual artificial eyelash hair. The reflective particles (28) were accomplished using plastic film and colored crystals of different colors, hues and reflectivity. The particles (28) were adhered to the individual artificial eyelash hairs (10) with an adhesive: ethoxy-ethyl cyanoacrylate. The decorative artificial eyelash hair (10) can be practiced as artificial eyelash single hair extensions (10a), or it can be practiced on the individual artificial eyelash hairs of an artificial eyelash set (10b).
