Abstract: A hazard beacon has an interface to a vehicle wiring harness configured to detect that vehicle emergency indicators have been deployed, a plurality of separately strobe capable light segments forming a hazard symbol, and a microcontroller controlling operation of the plurality of separately strobe capable light segments.

Abstract: A system for signaling a hazard condition of a vehicle includes a microprocessor configured to receive an electronic signal from the vehicle that is indicative of a hazardous condition involving the vehicle, and a first radio transmitter in operative communication with the microprocessor. In response to receiving the signal indicative of a hazardous event, the microprocessor sends a first wireless signal via the first radio transmitter that indicates the vehicle is involved in the hazardous condition.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the in vitro detection of a latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) in a subject, wherein said method comprises determining at least one nucleotide sequence and/or at least one polypeptide of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) in a blood cell population of said subject, and wherein the presence of said at least one nucleotide sequence and/or said at least one polypeptide is indicative for said latent tuberculosis infection. In particular, the blood cell population is enriched for hematopoietic stem cells. The invention also relates to a pharmaceutical composition for use in the treatment of the LTBI in the subject, wherein it is determined if the nucleotide sequence and/or the polypeptide of Mtb is/are present in the blood cell population. Further, the invention relates to kits for carrying out the methods of the invention. The invention also relates to the use of the kits.

Abstract: An improved wheelchair trainer with independent flywheel resistance for each wheelchair rear wheel. A lever-operated cam raises the wheelchair rear axle by pushing an inclined block against the axle and forces the rear wheels against wheel engagement means. As one or both rear wheels are turned, each wheel engagement means turns a flywheel in proportion to the speed of the wheel. Force and work may be calculated from the measured rotational speed of the flywheels. A hand-cycle attachment may drive the flywheel resistance.
