Abstract: A method of detecting a signal with a sensor. The method includes obtaining a plurality of signals with a sensor. A correlation is performed to determine if any of the plurality of signals correlate to at least one predefined signal. The at least one predefined signal corresponds to identifying the occurrence of a specific event.

Abstract: Process for the production of solid particles comprising a material with melting point from ?20 to 300° C. at atmospheric pressure, characterized in that a mixture comprising: a1) the material in molten form and a2) the material in solid form is mixed by means of an extruder to give a paste, this is forced through a pelletizing die to give strands, and the strands are comminuted.

Abstract: A combination of mismatch repair (MMR) and Metastasis Associated in Colon Cancer 1 (MACC1) gene expression status of the patient serve as a basis for risk stratification of early stage colon cancer patients. Patients with defective MMR (dMMR) status have improved survival and do not benefit from 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) therapies. In contrast, patients with a proficient MMR (pMMR) status have a higher risk of recurrence and worse survival. The pMMR patients are then further stratified on the basis of MACC1 gene expression. Patients with a pMMR status and a low MACC1 expression have a favorable prognosis similar to patients having a dMMR status, whereas patients having a pMMR status and high MACC1 expression have a less favorable prognosis.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods of analyzing stage II colorectal cancer (CRC) samples (such as those that are mis-match repair proficient, pMMR), by scoring G-alpha interacting vesicle associated protein (GIV, also known as girdin) full-length (GIV-fl) expression in combination with lymphovascular invasion (LVI) status or clinical variables. The disclosed methods can be used to identify GIV-fl expressing tumors that are likely to recur (high risk) and those that are not likely to recur (high risk). Subjects identified as having a high risk CRC can be selected to receive chemotherapy or biotherapy for the CRC. Thus, in some examples, the disclosed methods can be used to identify CRC tumors that are likely to respond to chemotherapy or biotherapy. Also provided are computer implemented methods, systems, and kits that can be used with these methods.

Abstract: The invention relates to a novel method for producing a carbon-doped lithium sulfide powder, according to which elementary lithium is reacted with elementary sulfur and/or a sulfur-containing compound selected from the group containing CS2, COS, SO2 and SO, in a liquid state, in an aliphatic or cycloaliphatic hydrocarbon solvent. The products of the method according to the invention are used to produce lithium battery electrodes or a lithium-ion-conducting solid.
