Abstract: A body lubricating, moisturizing, anti-inflammatory, and anti-pain formulation utilizes a mucilage-containing extract derived from a plant such as okra, Abelmoschus esculentus (Hibiscus esculentus). The formulation can be provided as a free liquid such as a solution, suspension, foam, gel, cream, ointment, or spray or alternatively impregnated into an absorbent solid article such as a mask, a wipe, swab, a bandage, cloth pad or a gauze. Application of the formulation to a mucosal or external bodily tissue result in the application of a layer of mucilage that lubricates and moisturizes the tissue as well as protects it from external damage from foreign particles and UV irradiation. Application of the formulation to an inflamed tissue provides anti-inflammatory effects and relieves pain.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods, devices, and systems for the enhanced monitoring of visual function via telemedicine to detect early onset of changes and abnormalities associated with disease. The systems include a cloud environment or neural network communicating various tests and images to a client device in which a user/patient is properly positioned to view a display of the client device, receive stimuli, and provide patient input which is evaluated in terms of timing and substance to generate a contrast-sensitivity map of a visual function for the patient. Various ocular tests are described for implementation in a new home-based computer environment rather than using expensive and specific medical equipment in a doctor's office.

Abstract: The present invention relates to multi-well platforms, lids, caddies and any combination thereof. The multi-well platforms comprise a plurality of wells that can be of any shape and can be arranged in any ornamental pattern. The lid comprises an area corresponding to the well field. The caddy has a footprint approximately that of a standard 96-well microtiter plate. When the multi-well platform is engaged with the caddy, the wells of the well-field of the multi-well platform are preferably not obscured by the caddy when viewed from the bottom of the combination.

Abstract: An automated unaided virtual perimetry system and underlying method for relative-threshold contrast sensitivity interrogation of the visual field via algorithmic presentation of visual stimuli on a screen and subsequent analysis of test response data for the detection of pathophysiologic scotomas as well response time registration and analysis for visual motor reflex testing. Launch of system via access from a remote server or direct installation of systems technology allows seamless capability at the local computer system to instruct, administer, and analyze output of stimuli and input of responses of test subjects or subjects independent of external input or control. Specific algorithmic test environment is designed to achieve comparable clinical efficacy and diagnostic utility to office-based perimetry system.
