Abstract: The invention of the present disclosure relates to methods for diagnosing and for treating a progressive lung disease in a subject. In various embodiments, the method for treating a progressive lung disease in a subject includes administering a pharmaceutical composition comprising a Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2) blocking agent and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier to the subject, wherein the method improves clinical outcome compared to an untreated control.

Abstract: A method includes moving a stabilization device comprising a stabilization surface relative to a base of a surgical cart, wherein the moving comprises moving the stabilization device from a retracted position in which the stabilization surface is spaced from the ground surface to a deployed position in which the stabilization surface is in contact with the ground surface, and wherein the moving comprises overcoming a biasing force biasing the stabilization device toward the retracted position.

Abstract: Provided are methods and systems for establishing secure sessions. A method for establishing secure sessions may commence with receiving a request to establish a secure session between a client and a server. Client security parameters may be provided in client extension fields of the request. The method may include forwarding the request to the server and receiving a secure session response from the server. Server security parameters may be provided in server extension fields of the secure session response. The method may include receiving a server key secret, forwarding the secure session response and the server key secret to the client, receiving a client key secret, and forwarding the client key secret to the server. The method may continue with calculating a session key and establishing a first secure session between the security gateway and the server and a second secure session between the security gateway and the client.

Abstract: A method, non-transitory computer readable medium and application management computing device includes receiving at an application management computing device a request from a client computing device which requires authentication. A determination is made by the application management computing device whether user network identification information currently is stored for the requesting client computing device. The stored user network identification information for the authentication is obtained by the application management computing device when the user network identification information is determined to be currently stored for the requesting client computing device. The authentication is completed by the application management computing device with the obtained user network identification information.
