Abstract: Methods for identifying premature infants at risk for developing bronchopulmonary dysplasia and/or most likely to benefit from administration of inhaled nitric oxide for prevention of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Methods for treating premature infants identified as at risk and/or likely to benefit are provided. also provided are methods for identifying premature infants that are not at risk for developing bronchopulmonary dysplasia and/or unlikely to benefit from administration of inhaled nitric oxide for prevention of bronchopulmonary dysplasia, and methods for avoiding risks of toxicity and undesirable side effects associated with inhaled nitric oxide therapy comprising administering only non-iNO treatment modalities to these infants.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to polymer-containing composite materials and to unusually low-pressure consolidation methods for forming composite parts from such materials. More specifically, for example, the disclosure relates to use of a certain “PEEK-PEDEK” copolymer in low-pressure consolidation methods, using as little as 1 bar pressure (or using atmospheric pressure acting on a consolidation that is held under vacuum) to provide composite parts that are substantially void-free.

Abstract: The presently disclosed subject matter provides a formulation for the use of 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin and/or enzyme replacement therapy for the treatment of Fabry disease.

Abstract: A system for use in surgery includes a central body, a visualization system operably connected to the central body, a video rendering system, a head-mounted display for displaying images from the video rendering system, a sensor system, and a robotic device operably connected to the central body. The visualization system includes at least one camera and a pan system and/or a tilt system. The sensor system tracks the position and/or orientation in space of the head-mounted display relative to a reference point. The pan system and/or the tilt system are configured to adjust the field of view of the camera in response to information from the sensor system about changes in at least one of position and orientation in space of the head-mounted display relative to the reference point.

Abstract: Described are methods of administering therapeutic gases comprising high concentrations of nitric oxide, particularly concentrations above 2,000 ppm. The therapeutic gas may be administered at a certain dosing rate, such as less than 166 micrograms of nitric oxide per second. Also described are methods of administering a therapeutic gas comprising nitric oxide to a patient, wherein a dose of nitric oxide is administered from a portable device that includes a delivery system and a mini-cylinder. Methods of intermittent administration of nitric oxide pulses are also described.

Abstract: A block chain data lake system comprises a data lake of a plurality of data files and software applications interfacing the data files. The system further comprises a block chain and block chain controller therefor. A transaction controller monitors transactions performed on the data files by functions of the software applications to add hashes to blocks of the block chain using the data files. A verification controller may verify data files by searching the block chain for hashes matching the data files. An authentication controller may issue cryptographic keys for software application, including specific functions thereof. A data migration system may migrate data from a legacy data system to the block chain data lake system. A synchronisation controller may synchronise data updated by software applications of the legacy data system in substantial real-time.

Abstract: A block chain-based system for multi-party, multistage process verification has a server in operable communication with a plurality of electronic client terminals. The server has a database which may have user data and implement a process verification controller. The system further has a block chain ledger. Fora multistage process involving multiple users, for each stage, the system is configured for receiving a function ID selected from a set of available functions via user interfaces of respective client terminals, generating a function hash comprising the function ID and associated function data and creating a function block chain transaction comprising the function hash which is added to the block chain ledger.
