Abstract: A system for performing a medical procedure in the intestine of a patient comprises a catheter for insertion into the intestine, a console, and a connector configured to operably attach the catheter to the console. The catheter comprises a shaft including a distal portion, and a functional assembly positioned on the distal portion of the shaft. The functional assembly is configured to receive fluid. The console comprises: a fluid reservoir configured to supply the fluid, a first syringe pump assembly configured to deliver the fluid to the functional assembly, a second syringe pump assembly configured to deliver the fluid to the functional assembly, a fluid heater configured to heat the fluid, and a waste fluid reservoir configured to receive the fluid. The system is configured to treat target tissue of the intestine of the patient. Methods of treating target tissue are also provided.

Abstract: Systems, devices and methods for performing medical procedures in the intestine of a patient are provided. A medical device for performing a treatment and/or a diagnostic procedure can include an elongate shaft assembly comprising at least a shaft assembly first section comprising a distal section of the shaft assembly, and a shaft assembly second section proximal to the first section, and a functional assembly positioned on the shaft assembly first section. Additional sections of the shaft assembly can be included, and each section can comprise a different construction, such as to achieve a different stiffness as described herein. Variable stiffness along the length of the shaft assembly can be provided to aid in translation of the device through the patient's GI tract (e.g. through the stomach and into the small intestine), as described herein.

Abstract: An edge server receives a request from a client network application for a web page hosted at an origin server. The edge server transmits the requested web page in a response. The edge server accesses an edge server request log to retrieve a log entry associated with the request for the web page, where the log entry associated with the request for the web page includes information regarding the request and the response. The edge server retrieves one or more characteristics of an asset of the web page, where each characteristics has an expected value. The edge server determines whether the origin server is compromised when a value for a characteristic is not within a threshold range of the expected value for the characteristic of the asset and performs a mitigation action in response.

Abstract: A system can deliver a specific amount of energy to a target region of a patients body by scanning an energy beam over a precise path. The system can include a beam-path determination unit that defines the path and a duration for an energy beam to deliver a dose and/or a fluence of energy to the target region of the patients body of the shape and/or the size. The system can also include an energy delivery system comprising an energy source that projects the energy beam for the duration and director device that directs (or scans) the energy beam along the path to deliver the dose and/or the fluence to the target region to achieve the dose profile and/or the fluence profile.

Abstract: A first server receives a request for a file from a first client device. The first server determines that the file is not fully available in a cache that is available to the first server and receives at least a portion of the file from a second server. While the file is being received, the first server writes data of the file to a temporary cache file as it is being received; streams the file to the first client device from the temporary cache file; receives a request for the file from a second client device; and streams the file to the second client device from the temporary cache file without waiting for the requested file to be fully received at the first server and without transmitting an additional request for the file to the second server.

Abstract: A method for facilitating monetization of an embedded video configured for automated playback includes detecting, via an iframe embedded in a user interface of a third party platform, an indication of a user intent to view the video configured for automated playback. The video is hosted by a content sharing platform and embedded in the user interface of the third party platform. The method further includes providing, to a client device, video related data pertaining to the automated playback of the video in the user interface of the third party platform, and upon receiving the video-related data, validating the automated playback of the video in the user interface of the third party platform.

Abstract: A system and method for enabling, on any website, a unified user login that supports login through multiple known identity providers and, if necessary, the website's legacy login are disclosed. In one example, the system comprises a login receiver module, an identity provider determination module, a legacy account module, a federated account module and a login module. The login receiver module receives a login request associated with a user identifier. The identity provider determination module determines whether the login request is associated with a known identity provider. The legacy account module performs legacy account creation and/or legacy login verification when the address is not associated with any known identity provider. Otherwise, the federated account module performs federated account creation and/or federated login verification. The login module logs the user into the account responsive to one or more of verification and account creation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to devices and methods for killing and/or debilitating pathogenic microorganisms, such as the H. pylori bacteria within a patient's body. A light source is provided that emits electromagnetic radiation having wavelengths within the visible spectrum. The light source can be internal and/or external to the patient's body. For embodiments having a light source external to the body, a light guide is provided for transferring electromagnetic radiation from the light source to a location within the patient's body. The light guide has a proximal end optically coupled to the light source and a distal end dimensioned for insertion into a patient's body. A delivery element is also provided to optically couple electromagnetic radiation from the light to a location with a patient's body.

Abstract: Physically flexible radiation-emitting probes and associated illumination methods and systems for delivering radiation or light to the interior of a lumen or cavity. Light-emitting devices are immersed in a flowing liquid coolant within a probe to provide high light output power, and convoluted electrical power buss structures provide physical flexibility of a probe about a longitudinal axis. The probes can be configured for delivering light to the interior of any lumen including for performing therapeutic medical procedures at locations in body lumens including the interior of the human gastrointestinal tract.
