  • Publication number: 20190284899
    Abstract: A diverter assembly includes a tubing segment and one or more sleeve members disposed therein. The tubing segment includes apertures that are selectively alignable with apertures of an inner sleeve disposed within the tubing segment. The tubing segment includes a series of stops (e.g., shear pins) to arrest movement of the first sleeve within the bore of the tubing segment. A first one or more ball seats are included in the first sleeve such that deployment of a first ball and pressurization of the well above the first ball causes a first set of shear pins to fail, thereby allowing the first sleeve to slide downhole to cause apertures of the sleeve to align with apertures of the tubing segment, thereby causing fluid to flow to an annulus between the tubing segment and wellbore wall.

  • Patent number: 10261092
    Abstract: Compositions and methods for determining immunologically cross-reactive molecules comprising a cross-reactive antigenic determinant are provided, in particular for determining proteins comprising cross-reactive antigenic determinants, in particular for determining proteins that are cross-reactive based on serological screens using sequential immunological challenges to an animal, including determining cross-reactive H. parasuis proteins. Also provided are compositions, vaccines, and kits using the molecules for diagnostics and methods for preventing or treating a disease, disorder, condition, or symptoms thereof associated with infectious agents, in particular infectious microorganisms, in particular for preventing or treating a disease, disorder, condition, or symptom thereof associated with H. parasuis infection.

  • Publication number: 20190060109
    Abstract: This invention is a method for preventing, or reducing the severity of, traumatic brain injury (TBI) by increasing the viscosity of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to enhance an existing protective mechanism of the body. The invention increases the viscosity of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) that surrounds the brain such that the CSF fluid provides a greater resistance to the movement of the brain to slow its movement relative to the skull during an impact event, thereby reducing the magnitude of acceleration of the brain relative to the skull. Consequently, this method can reduce the severity of impacts on the brain, thereby reducing the potential damage associated with said impacts.

  • Publication number: 20190050944
    Abstract: The preceding disclosure concerns a novel solution to income inequality and wealth inequality (the “Solution”). The Solution is comprised of, among other elements, the following embodiments: an income equality generator; a wealth equality generator; future income swaps; future wealth swaps; income verification for future income swaps; and wealth verification for future wealth swaps. The embodiments are useful, novel, and non-obvious individually. Likewise, the embodiments are useful, novel, and non-obvious when taken collectively. Income inequality and/or wealth inequality—the problem(s) solved by the income equality generator and/or wealth equality generator alone or in combination with future income swaps and/or future wealth swaps and income verification for future income swaps and/or wealth verification for future wealth swaps—do not occur in nature, are a relatively new problem, and are problems that have increased in magnitude in recent years.

  • Patent number: 10049378
    Abstract: Push reporting is disclosed. A first payload comprising feature reporting information and meta information is received from a first device at a first time. A second payload comprising feature reporting information and meta information is received from a second device at a second time. At respective third and fourth times, respective third and fourth payloads are received from the first and second devices, respectively. The third and fourth payloads include additional feature reporting information and meta information. The processing of the information received from the first and second devices is coordinated. A request for information is received. Metrics are provided as output. The metrics are based at least in part on the processing of the information received from the first and second devices.

  • Publication number: 20180018684
    Abstract: Disclosed is a churn prediction system that predicts with a high level of accuracy which users will and which users will not stop opening the app over a 30-day time period. To this end a model is created using historical event data where the churn-related behavior of each user is known. New event data is then applied to the model to determine the likelihood of each user churning in the future. With these prediction scores a user is then qualified as falling into one of three classifications: low-risk, medium-risk, or high-risk of churn.
