Abstract: A variety of surgical procedures may be performed on the bones of the foot, such as on one or more lesser metatarsals of the foot positioned laterally of the first metatarsal. For example, a surgical procedure may involve cutting an end of one or both of a second metatarsal and an intermediate cuneiform and/or cutting an end of one or both of a third metatarsal and a lateral cuneiform. The tarsometatarsal joints defined be one or both sets of bones may be cut to treat an arthritic joint, metatarsus adductus, and/or other clinical condition. In any case, various surgical instruments can be utilized during a procedure to help increase the accuracy and repeatability of the procedure patient-to-patient, improving overall patient outcomes and making it less invasive. For example, one or more cut guides having tissue control features may be utilized during procedure.

Abstract: A method of placing an implant at one or more bone portions includes inserting a pinning and drilling instrument a first distance into a bone portion at a location at the bone portion such that a pin portion of the pinning and drilling instrument is inserted into the bone portion at the location; after inserting the pinning and drilling instrument the first distance into the bone portion, creating an implant receiving aperture at the location by further inserting the pinning and drilling instrument a second further distance into the bone portion at the location at the bone portion such that a drill portion of the pinning and drilling instrument is inserted into the bone portion to create the implant receiving aperture at the location; and placing an implant at the implant receiving aperture.

Abstract: A method of fixating bones for fusion includes positioning an implant guide sleeve at a first bone and a second bone and across a separation between the first bone from the second bone. The method further includes using the implant guide sleeve to guide creation of a first implant hole in the first bone and to guide creation of a second implant hole in the second bone, aligning an inserter, operatively connected to an implant, with the implant guide sleeve, and advancing the inserter, relative to the implant guide sleeve, to position the implant in contact with the first bone and the second bone with the implant bridging between the first bone and the second bone.

Abstract: A method of modifying a bone surface for receiving an implant includes: positioning a contour guide at a first bone and a second bone and across a separation between the first bone and the second bone; using the contour guide to modify a surface region of at least one of the first bone and the second bone to form a modified surface region at one or both of the first bone and the second bone; and positioning an implant in contact at least with the modified surface region.

Abstract: A system includes reception of a first query of a transaction table from a first client system, generation of a first result set based on the first query, transmission of the first result set to the first client system, reception of a first subset of the first result set from the first client system, the first subset of the first result set associated with a first user, determination of whether to present a first stored comment to the first user based on the first subset of the first result set, a first context associated with the first stored comment, and data security information associated with the first user, and, if it is determined to present the first stored comment to the first user, transmission of the first stored comment to the first client system.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a program that receives from a client device a dimension value for a first dimension in a plurality of dimensions of a data model and a measure in a set of measures of the data model. The program further determines a cardinality of dimension values for each dimension in the plurality of dimensions. The program also selects a subset of dimensions in the plurality of dimensions based on the cardinalities of dimension values for the plurality of dimensions. The program further sends the subset of dimensions in the plurality of dimensions to the client device. The program also receives from the client device a request for a chart visualization comprising data values associated with the measure and categorized according to a second dimension in the subset of dimensions. In response to the request, the program further sends the chart visualization to the client device.

Abstract: Financial portfolios are analyzed based on a number of statistics and presented as a visualization on a display. The visualization is changeable based on user inputs, including definition by the user of a analysis period and selection of specific statistical filters. The visualization responds to the inputs substantially in real-time.

Abstract: An apparatus for creating a strong force of concentrated energy and a blowing force of air pressure in cooperation with an industrial, commercial or home care lawn mower. This device is a new combination of existing materials configured with unique features that provide an effective, practical and economical way to provide an air blower device. It is comprised of a main deck with features with two or more air ducts, a series of baffles to direct the air movement through the deck, and an exhaust duct; of at least one blower fan; and of a means to secure the main deck and blowers to a mower device.
