  • Patent number: 9491646
    Abstract: A measuring device for measuring a signal with a first component signal and at least one second component signal comprises a high-frequency processing device, which is embodied to mix the signal in order to form an intermediate-frequency signal and to digitize the latter in order to form a digital composite signal. The measuring device further comprises a digital mixer, which is embodied to generate a first digital composite test signal and a second digital composite test signal subject to a displacement of the frequency of the digital composite signal. Moreover, the measuring device comprises a digital filter, which is embodied to filter the first digital composite test signal in order to form a first digital test signal and to filter the second digital composite test signal in order to form a second digital test signal.

  • Publication number: 20160310645
    Abstract: Methods for treating or preventing neointima stenosis are disclosed. The methods generally involve the use of a TGF? inhibitor, a SMAD2 inhibitor, an FGF Receptor agonist, a Let-7 agonist, or a combination thereof, to inhibit endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (Endo-MT) of vascular endothelial cells into smooth muscle cells (SMC) at sites of endothelial damage. The disclosed methods can therefore be used to prevent or inhibit neointimal stenosis or restenosis, e.g., after angioplasty, vascular graft, or stent. Also disclosed are methods for increasing the patency of biodegradable, synthetic vascular grafts using a composition that inhibits Endo-MT. A cell-free tissue engineered vascular graft (TEVG) produced by this method is also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20150347705
    Abstract: A method of generating a clinically supplemented risk score using data from an electronic health record system can include collecting data from a plurality of electronic health records; parsing the data into defined fields; comparing the parsed data to at least one look-up table to generate an inferred diagnostic condition; comparing the inferred diagnostic condition to a documented diagnostic condition; mapping the inferred diagnostic condition to at least one condition category; refining the at least one mapped inferred diagnostic condition into a hierarchy to generate a hierarchal mapped conditioned category; and determining via a processor, a risk score in response to the inferred diagnostic condition for the patient in response to the hierarchal mapped conditioned category, the risk score representing an expected total cost of care for the patient relative to the average per-patient cost of care over an entire population.

  • Patent number: 9094391
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to methods and systems dynamic trust federation. In one aspect, a computer implemented method may include a security token that enables sign-on into a group applications based on applicable trust criteria. In one aspect, when a user interacts with one application in the group, the trust is elevated through the application internal authentication application program interface (API). The trust may be included in the security token to make available to other applications in the group. Applications can be in multiple groups with variable level of authentication based on location and other transactions variables.

  • Patent number: 8982745
    Abstract: A method for improving the data rate of data for M/H receivers and for improving the quality of channel estimation in an ATSC-M/H transport data stream marks the transport data packets determined for the transmission of data for M/H receivers in N (e.g., 38) consecutively transmitted transport data packets in an ATSC-M/H-slot of the uncoded ATSC-M/H transport data stream originally determined for the transmission of data for stationary receivers. Coded data for M/H receivers are inserted in the marked transport data packets and introduce training sequences in segments of data fields of the coded ATSC-M/H transport data stream containing marked transport data packets.
