Abstract: Systems and methods for object-based data storage are provided. There may be a read/write cache configured to cache objects to be written to an object-based data storage. A document in the read/write cache may have a lock state set to unlocked, thereby allowing the document to be deleted. Or, the document in the read/write cache may have a lock state set to locked, thereby preventing deletion of the document.

Abstract: Described herein are methods of identifying one or more epigenetic modifications in a nucleic acid sequence of a sample of a subject's father to identify a risk of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), to diagnose ASD early in a subject based at least in part of the epigenetic modification identified in the nucleic acid sequence of the sample of the subject's father. Also disclosed herein are methods of treating a subject with autism or ASD.

Abstract: There is disclosed herein systems and apparatuses for use with personal watercraft having a top side, a bottom side, a long axis, fore and aft sections and at least one passenger opening defined in the top side between the fore and aft sections, the systems and apparatuses including at least two legs each having a first end and second end, and each attachable at its first end to the watercraft and each having disposed at its second end a wheel; an inflatable bladder attachable to the watercraft; a compressor in fluid communication with the bladder; and a control unit for activating the compressor to inflate the bladder from a stowed configuration to a deployed configuration.

Abstract: The invention disclosed herein generally relates to low-dose oral doxepin pharmaceutical formulations and the use of these formulations to promote sleep.

Abstract: Systems, devices, methods, and software of the present invention provide for sanitization monitoring of hands, other body parts, and objects. The systems and devices including a detector to provide images of the object within its detection range, and at least one processor to receive the images from the detector, determine areas of the image corresponding to sanitized areas of the object from unsanitized areas of the object, calculate a percentage of sanitized areas to the total area corresponding to the sanitized and unsanitized areas, and report at least the percentage of sanitized area. In various embodiments, users sanitize their hands with fluorescing hand sanitizer and/or a fluorescing germ-proxy agent with soap and water and the sanitized and unsanitized areas are determined based on the amount of fluorescing material remaining on the hands after application.

Abstract: The apparatus and methods disclosed herein are directed to detecting the presence of a whipping tail when using a fiber winding system to wind a fiber onto a rotating spool. The fiber is guided onto the rotating spool through a containment region between the spool and a whip shield to create the wound fiber. The whipping tail outwardly extends from the wound fiber and periodically or quasi-periodically passes through a light beam to create a series intensity dips in the light beam, thereby forming a modulated light beam. The modulated light beam is converted into a digital electrical signal made up of electrical pulses having a timing defined by the intensity dips. The measured timing of the electrical pulses is compared to an estimated timing based on the rotating spool to ascertain the presence of a whipping tail.

Abstract: Methods of improving the pharmacokinetics of doxepin in a patient.

Abstract: A composition comprising doxepin, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, or prodrug thereof, and a compound that enhances sleep onset, sleep maintenance or reduces early morning awakenings. These compositions are useful for treating multiple manifestations of insomnia.

Abstract: A panel structure comprised of a plurality of extruded aluminum panel members. The aluminum panel members are joined together into a single structure by a friction stir welding process and at least one of the extruded aluminum panel members includes an extruded slot running along an entire length of the at least one of the extruded aluminum panel members. The extruded slots are used to attach hooks or other suitable retaining devices for securing objects to the panel structure or to directly attach structural elements or modules to the panel structure.
