Abstract: Frame for use in coating a reinforcing fiber are provided. The frame includes a first frame end having a first cross-sectional shape. The first cross-sectional shape has one or more contact locations that are spaced apart from each other. The reinforcing fiber contacts the first frame end at the one or more contact locations. Methods are also provided for coating such a fiber.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are disposable devices for measuring sweat having low dead volumes and allowing a quick sensory response. Also disclosed herein are methods of making and using such devices.

Abstract: A system for coating reinforcing fiber of a composite component is provided, The system includes a frame including at least one contact location for contacting the reinforcing fiber and a movement mechanism including an actuator. The movement mechanism is operably coupled to the frame to induce movement of the reinforcing fiber relative to the frame. Methods are also provided for coating such a fiber.

Abstract: Methods, devices and systems are disclosed for inter-app communications between software applications on a mobile communications device. In one aspect, a computer-readable medium on a mobile computing device comprising an inter-application communication data structure to facilitate transitioning and distributing data between software applications in a shared app group for an operating system of the mobile computing device includes a scheme field of the data structure providing a scheme id associated with a target software app to transition to from a source software app, wherein the scheme id is listed on a scheme list stored with the source software app; and a payload field of the data structure providing data and/or an identification where to access data in a shared file system accessible to the software applications in the shared app group, wherein the payload field is encrypted.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for generating graphical displays of analyte data and/or health information. In some implementations, the graphical displays are generating based on a self-referential dataset that are modifiable based on identified portions of the data. The modified graphical displays can indicate features in the analyte data of a host.

Abstract: Snares for retrieval of medical devices from the body of an animal, medical assemblies, kits, and methods of retrieving a medical device from the body of an animal are described. An example snare comprises an outer sheath defining an outer sheath lumen; an elongate member disposed in the outer sheath lumen and having a longitudinal axis and at least one elongate member lumen; a capture member disposed and axially movable within the at least one elongate member lumen, the capture member defining a capture loop having a throat region and a portion extending along a plane that is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the elongate member; and a threader member disposed and axially movable within the at least one elongate member lumen, the threader member defining a threader loop. A handle includes a rotatable control member for deflecting a distal end of the outer sheath.

Abstract: Methods and systems for determining whether a software application that is executable by an electronic device is compliant under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) are provided. A software application is accessed over a network. A programmed computer processor is used to determine whether said software application, upon execution, is at or above an (i) access control threshold, (ii) audit control threshold, (iii) data integrity threshold, (iv) authentication threshold, and (v) transmission security threshold, which thresholds are minimum thresholds for HIPAA compliance. Additionally, a determination that said software application is HIPAA compliant is made if said software application, upon execution, is at or above (i) said access control threshold, (ii) audit control threshold, (iii) data integrity threshold, (iv) authentication threshold, and (v) transmission security threshold. Further, a determination as to whether said software application is HIPAA compliant is output.

Abstract: Systems and methods as disclosed herein are provided for generating a research study application. A request to generate a research study is received from a user. A plurality of task generation options are presented on a graphical user interface of an electronic device. The plurality of task generation options are selected from the group consisting of a consent survey, an eligibility survey, a medical history survey, and a medical tracking survey. Input regarding the plurality of task generation options is received from the user. Additionally, a research study application is generated based on information received from the user.
