Abstract: Disclosed are surprising new methods and kits for identifying and treating patients treatable with PS-targeting antibodies, particularly for identifying and treating cancer patients using bavituximab and bavituximab combination therapies. The methods and kits are based on the surprising finding that defined ranges of pre-treatment blood concentrations of ?2-glycoprotein 1 (?2GPI), particularly functional ?2GPI, act as an indicator to accurately predict patients with better treatment outcomes.

Abstract: A system includes a system housing including an inlet, at least one gas sensor responsive to a first analyte gas other than oxygen within the system housing and in fluid connection with the inlet, and a sensor responsive to oxygen within the system housing and in fluid connection with the inlet. The sensor responsive to oxygen is formed to be chemically separate from the at least one gas sensor responsive to the first analyte gas other than oxygen. The sensor responsive to oxygen is responsive to a change in the concentration of oxygen arising from creation of a driving force in the vicinity of the inlet to provide an indication of a state of a transport path between the inlet of the system and the at least one gas sensor responsive to the first analyte gas other than oxygen.

Abstract: Techniques are described for white balancing an input image by determining a color transformation for the input image based on color transformations that have been computed for training images whose color characteristics are similar to those of the input image. Techniques are also described for generating a training dataset comprising color information for a plurality of training images and color transformation information for the plurality of training images. The color information in the training dataset is searched to identify a subset of training images that are most similar in color to the input image. The color transformation for the input image is then computed by combining color transformation information for the identified training images. The contribution of the color transformation information for any given training image to the combination can be weighted based on the degree of color similarity between the input image and the training image.

Abstract: Example implementations described herein are directed to providing one or more service tags in a Domain name service (DNS) response to indicate the availability of user defined services for a particular peer node in an Evolved Packet Core (EPC). DNS clients can process the DNS response for the service tags and facilitate the selection of peer nodes for a User Equipment (UE) based on the processed service tag(s).

Abstract: A method and system for managing dynamic runtime information provision for a container implementing a Session Management Function (SMF) executed by an electronic device in a 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) 5th Generation (5G) mobile network core. The method includes starting a container image load, the container image including at least a secret sub unit and an application sub unit, the application sub unit providing the SMF, determining an input source to provide a secret value for the container, the input source identified by information in the secret sub unit in the container image, and providing the secret value to a destination sub unit of the container.

Abstract: A method of disinfecting an artificial turf structure includes applying to the artificial turf

Abstract: A server may assign a temporary phone number and an extension number to a shipment. The temporary phone number may be based on a geographic location of where the shipment is to be delivered. The extension number is associated with the shipment. The temporary phone number and extension number may be included on a shipping label rather than the user's phone number. During the delivery of the shipment, a delivery person may encounter a delivery issue, such as needing directions. The delivery person may call the temporary phone number and extension number and be connected to a user device. The delivery person may communicate the delivery issue, such as asking for directions to the user's residence. Upon delivery of the shipment, the server disassociates the temporary phone number and the extension number from the shipment.

Abstract: A method comprises obtaining input data from a patient device associated with a patient, the input data including free text data generated by the patient. The input data is analyzed to determine whether the input data meets predetermined relevancy criteria. The input data is compared to clinical data in a clinically curated database to generate comparison data.

Abstract: A method of advertisement filtering including receiving advertisements from a multiple of access controls; filtering the received advertisements based on a credential on the mobile device; comparing the filtered received advertisements and determining a user intent to access a particular access control in response to the comparing and to a destination intent.

Abstract: A system for the end-to-end delivery of digital television signals. In a preferred embodiment a digital television signal is: received from production equipment, typically in HD format at approximately 1.4 gigabits per second (Gbps); the received signal is transmitted to a venue point-of-presence; converted for transmission via a 270 Mbps local loop; transmitted to a fiber network point of presence/video service edge; packetized into TCP/IP packets in a video gateway; and routed to one or more destination addresses via the fiber network; received at one or more video service edge destinations; converted to a digital television format, typically SDI; and either transmitted via a second 270 Mbps local loop for delivery to a customer site and subsequent conversion to a 1.4 Gbps HD signal, or converted directly to a 1.4 Gbs HD signal at the receiving video service edge.

Abstract: Data is processed in a data communications network comprising a hierarchical domain name system. An authoritative name server for a first domain name processes a received domain name query for the first domain name by obtaining one or more resource records associated with the first domain name. The one or more resource records comprise contact information associated with an entity associated with a second domain name. The authoritative name server transmits a response to the domain name query. The response comprises the one or more resource records. The first domain name includes the second domain name and at least one label following the second domain name.

Abstract: This invention relates to compounds useful as lysyl oxidase (LOX) and lysyl oxidase-like (LOXL) family member (LOXL1, LOXL2, LOXL3, LOXL4) inhibitors. In addition there are contemplated pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds and the use of the compounds in the treatment of conditions mediated by LOX and LOXL, for example cancer. In particular a LOX inhibitor such as the present compounds may be for use in the treatment of a cancer associated with EGFR.

Abstract: A multifunctional restrictive valve for controlling the flow of water therethrough. The valve has a main body with a flow channel through the main body. The main body receives water upstream thereof through an inlet port and passes it out through an outlet port at the downstream end of the body. A flow control assembly is located in the flow channel and includes a temperature sensor/actuator acting on a piston to move, when the temperature sensor heats up the piston, to block water flow control ports. The flow control assembly also includes an override feature wherein the piston is located within a slide and the flow control ports are located in the slide. By moving the slide away from the piston when the piston is blocking the flow control ports, the temperature sensor and piston may be overridden and flow may resume through the main body.
