  • Patent number: 11036977
    Abstract: An identity recognition device, and an substrate and an identity recognition circuit are disclosed. In the substrate, a plurality of second recognition output lines are added to be arranged in pairs with first recognition output lines. A control signal loaded to the control signal line will be coupled to the first and second recognition output lines by the parasitic capacitance between the control signal line and the recognition output lines to cause similar signal interference to the first and second recognition output lines. During the identity recognition time period, the signal interference in the electric signal outputted by the first recognition output line can be removed by utilizing the similar noise signal received by the second recognition output line, in such a way to improve the signal-to-noise ratio and detection precision of the identity recognition signal.

  • Patent number: 11037656
    Abstract: Predicting beneficial drug combinations mitigating adverse drug reactions identifies drug combinations and associated target adverse drug reaction from a spontaneous reporting system containing case reports of drugs and associated adverse drug reactions. Each drug combination comprises a first drug and a second drug, and a propensity score is computed for each drug in each group. This propensity score expresses a probability of being exposed to a given drug based on other co-prescribed drugs and reported indications, which reflect patient characteristics. Associations are computed for each drug as well as drug interaction. Among the associations, the sum of the associations of the second drug and the interaction effect represents the predicted beneficial score expressing whether the second drug alters the chance of developing the target adverse drug reaction for patients on the first drug.
