  • Patent number: 10355960
    Abstract: A data transfer system is configured to transfer data from a data transmitting site to a data receiving site. The data transfer system includes a low-side network, at least one high-side network, and a one-way data (OWD) link. The OWD link is configured to perform unidirectional data transfer from the low-side network to the at least one high-side network. The OWD link continuously synchronizes the low-side network with the at least one high-side network while continuously transferring data through the OWD link.

  • Patent number: 10307191
    Abstract: A subtalar plate implant (12) for correcting and/or altering the alignment of a hyperpronated foot (10) comprises a plate portion (22) and an insert portion (24) that is connected to the plate portion (22). The plate portion (22) is selectively attachable to a lateral aspect of the calcaneus (16). The insert portion (24) is positionable within the subtalar joint (18). The insert portion (24) includes a top surface (236) that is selectively positionable substantially adjacent to a base of the talus (14), the top surface (236) being angled to allow the talus (14) to articulate over the top surface (236). The insert portion (24) further includes a bottom surface (238) that is selectively positionable substantially adjacent to a dorsal surface of the calcaneus (16). The insert portion (24) can include a groove (356) that is formed along the bottom surface (238) substantially parallel to the plate portion (22).

  • Patent number: 10180980
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for identifying duplicate events. In one implementation, a computer-implemented method is provided that includes receiving an event based on a user interaction with a client device, and determining content and a location for the event. The method further includes calculating a duplicate value for the event using the content and the location of the even, and determining a degree of similarity by comparing the duplicate value to a table of stored duplicate values. In addition, the method includes identifying the event as a duplicate of a stored event when the degree of similarity exceeds a predetermined threshold level of similarity, and indexing the event on the client device depending on the determination of whether or not the event is a duplicate of the stored event.

  • Publication number: 20180215742
    Abstract: Focused library synthesis and medicinal chemistry on an oxadiazole-isopropylamide core proteasome inhibitor provided the lead compound that strongly inhibits CT-L activity. Structure activity relationship studies indicate the amide moiety and two phenyl rings are sensitive toward synthetic modifications. Only para-substitution in the A-ring was important to maintain potent CT-L inhibitory activity. Hydrophobic residues in the A-ring's para-position and meta-pyridyl group at the B-ring significantly improved inhibition. The meta-pyridyl moiety improved cell permeability. The length of the aliphatic chain at the para position of the A-ring is critical with propyl yielding the most potent inhibitor, whereas shorter (i.e. ethyl, methyl or hydrogen) or longer (i.e. butyl, propyl and hexyl) chains demonstrating progressively less potency. Introduction of a stereogenic center next to the ether moiety (i.e.
