  • Publication number: 20240252493
    Abstract: Apelin receptor modulators can improve physical performance, slow progression of age-related frailty, and can reduce age-related muscle weakness in human patients. This disclosure provides methods for treating muscle conditions using a particular class of apelin receptor modulators (e.g., agonists). The muscle condition can be an age-related muscle condition. Also provided is a method for maintaining and/or increasing muscle mass and/or muscle strength in an elderly subject by administration of the apelin receptor modulator. In some embodiments, the apelin receptor modulator (e.g., agonist) is BGE-105, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

  • Publication number: 20210184887
    Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to label based isochronous connection update. A central Bluetooth low energy (BLE) device may send a plurality of labels to a peripheral BLE device during a setup of a BLE communication to notify the peripheral BLE device of one or more labels to be used during the BLE communication. The central BLE device may determine a channel variation between the central BLE device and the peripheral BLE device. The central BLE device may send a first label to the peripheral BLE device to indicate an isochronous (ISO) parameter update that will occur at a first time offset based on the channel variation. The central BLE device may implement the isochronous parameter update at the first time offset based on the channel variation.

  • Patent number: 10959274
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to improve Bluetooth low energy streaming connection efficiency are disclosed herein. An example method includes accessing a request received at a first device from a second device, the request requesting set up of an isochronous link between the first device and the second device, the request including a configuration identifier. Whether the configuration identifier identifies a configuration stored at the first device is determined. In response to determining that the configuration identifier identifies the configuration stored at the first device, the isochronous link using the stored configuration.
