Abstract: The present invention relates to the treatment of sepsis and sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI). More specifically, it relates to cilastatin for use in a method of treating sepsis and/or SA-AKI and reducing its associated mortality, in a mammalian subject. It is further directed to methods for treating sepsis and/or SA-AKI; and to pharmaceutical compositions for use in the methods of the invention.

Abstract: A child safety seat accident detection system that has a device such as an accelerometer for determining an acceleration of the seat, and a processor, operably connected to the device for determining an acceleration of the seat, and that is configured to judge, based at least on the determined acceleration, if the seat has been in a motor vehicle accident.

Abstract: A wearable or attachable device comprising a sensor configured to provide user-specific burn rate times providing an indication to the user when they are exposing themselves to harmful levels of radiation.

Abstract: A child transportation system is disclosed. The system includes a seating component and various other modules. The system can check whether a seating component is located in a vehicle, whether the seating component is a proper component given the weight and height of the child in the seat, that the seating component is properly secured in the vehicle, and that the system is operating correctly. The system can monitor various conditions of the seat and the environment, and can provide alarms to users when cheks are not completed or dangerous environmental conditions are present, or when a child is left behind in a vehicle.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to a child transportation device which may be a child seat or a stroller, or other device. The child seat comprises a basket and a base; the basket is arranged on the base. The basket is provided with a lifting handle. The child transportation device has a portion of the device configured to change color with temperature. The child transportation device may be provided with a temperature-sensing coating having the color change with the temperature change property. The temperature sensitive coating can be located anywhere on the child transportation device visible to external observers. The child seat is simple in structure and convenient to operate; and the temperature where a child locates is observed conveniently in a vehicle driving process or during indoor and outdoor conversion.

Abstract: An occupancy sensor for a seating component of a child transportation system is disclosed. A pair of conductors couple to capacitive sensors. The pair of conductors are coupled to the seating component in the region where the torso of a child would be located when a child was occupying the seating component. The conductors are unshielded in the area near the child's torso and are shielded elsewhere. The conductors can be run on either side of a wall of the seating component, and may be run in recessed channels in the wall. Various signal processing operations can be performed to improve occupancy sensing performance.
