Abstract: A system and method for a procedure that can be performed on an appropriate subject. A procedure may be planned, at least in part, prior to performing the procedure. An image may illustrate at least a portion of the planned procedure for confirmation and/or alteration of the planned procedure prior to performing the procedure.

Abstract: Various methods and devices are provided for allowing multiple surgical instruments to be inserted into sealing elements of a single surgical access device. The sealing elements can be movable along predefined pathways within the device to allow surgical instruments inserted through the sealing elements to be moved laterally, rotationally, angularly, and vertically relative to a central longitudinal axis of the device for ease of manipulation within a patient's body while maintaining insufflation.

Abstract: eSIM generation software creates eSIMs in real-time within a WSP secure private network to route via computer components inside or outside of the secure private network to download eSIMs to wireless subscriber devices. eSIM generation software is integrated to eSIM profile creation tool to automatically select an eSIM profile template. Based on selected eSIM Profile template, an eSIM profile may be generated and stored on a case-by-case basis instead of generating all of a large quantity, or batch, and then storing all of the batch. Transport of highly guarded security information, like master keys, outside of the secure private network does not occur.

Abstract: Embodiments are directed to providing an image in response to a request for an image and to requesting an image for a specified context. In one scenario, a computer system stores multiple image representations of a corresponding visual asset identified by an identifier. The image representations include a vectorized representation of the visual asset and/or a rasterized representation of the visual asset. The computer system receives a request that includes an identifier for one of the visual assets and usage parameters. The computer system evaluates at least one of the usage parameters to identify an image representation of the identified visual asset that substantially corresponds with the usage parameters. The computer system then obtains the identified image representation of the corresponding visual asset based on the evaluation and provides the obtained image representation in response to the request.

Abstract: Multi-faceted relationship hubs can support browsing an extensible set of relationship types from within a single tool window. A user can switch between relationship types within a single tool window without disrupting user flow by having to change context in a plurality of tool windows. Multiple instances of relationship hubs can be created. Browsing navigation history can be stored, allowing a user to maintain and reacquire relationship contexts. A user can preview the content of one or more files without opening the file.

Abstract: Various technologies and techniques are disclosed for using heuristics to determine source code ownership. A request is received to identify at least one owner of a particular source code unit. Initial ownership totals are calculated for the source code unit based upon a code contribution heuristic. The code contribution heuristic counts lines of code that were added and that were modified in the totals for contributing users. The initial ownership totals of the particular source code unit are adjusted based upon at least one other heuristic. The at least one owner of the particular source code unit is then output to an output device. The at least one owner is determined by selecting a contributing user that has a highest ranking total after adjusting the initial ownership totals. For example, there can be a primary owner and a backup owner selected based on the ranking of the ownership totals.

Abstract: Compounds, compositions and methods are provided which are useful in the treatment of diseases through the inhibition of sodium ion flux through voltage-dependent sodium channels. More particularly, the invention provides substituted piperidines, and compositions containing these compounds. Also provided are methods using the compounds of the invention for the treatment of central or peripheral nervous system disorders, particularly pain and chronic pain by blocking sodium channels associated with the onset or recurrance of the indicated conditions. The compounds, compositions and methods of the present invention are of particular use for treating neuropathic or inflammatory pain by the inhibition of ion flux through a channel that includes a PN3 subunit.

Abstract: An assembly including a support housing and an actuator device. The actuator device includes an extendable initiator cup including at least one non-random fold and at least in part defining a storage chamber containing a reactive charge reactable to produce reaction products. The extendable initiator cup longitudinally extends from a first length to a second, greater length upon reaction initiation of the reactive charge. The extendable initiator cup is at least partially disposed within a longitudinally extending bore of the support housing. The support housing is effective to limit lateral expansion of the extendable initiator cup upon reaction initiation of the reactive charge. The assembly can include an electrical conductive member or an electrical switch. The extendable initiator cup can extend to sever the electrical conductive member or disengage the electrical switch, thereby interrupting the conduction of electricity through an electrical system.

Abstract: A thrombectomy treatment system and method are provided. The system includes a catheter for insertion into the vascular system of a patient so that a tip of the catheter is positioned in the vicinity of a blood clot to be removed from the patient. A suction source is provided to withdraw the blood clot from the patient through the catheter. A filtration device functions to remove the blood clot from the accompanying blood. The filtered blood is collected in a blood collection device. A blood reinfuser communicates with the blood collection device to reinfuse the filtered blood back into the patient.

Abstract: Disclosed are compositions and methods for sustained percutaneous delivery of a biologically active substance in a timed-release manner. For example, the compositions and methods can involve percutaneous injection into the tissue surrounding the adventitia of a treated artery at the time of angioplasty, thereby significantly lessening smooth muscle cell proliferation, and thus intimal hyperplasia (IH) and restenosis.

Abstract: Devices and methods are disclosed for the percutaneous administration of a composition to a desired in vivo location. The composition comprises a biologically active substance and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The pharmaceutically acceptable carrier is preferably non-solid and a polymer, which is preferably capable of being transformed into a gel, thus allowing timed-released delivery of the substance. A preferred use for this invention is to provide local delivery of biologically active substances for the prevention of restenosis following angioplasty or other blood vessel injury.
