Abstract: According to embodiments, a scene modelling system may (e.g., initially) obtain and (e.g., subsequently) update a model of a scene based on data describing the scene. The data describing the scene may be received from any of sensors and objects, for example, located in the scene. The scene may comprise a set of connected and unconnected objects. An object may be associated with its own part of the model that may have been built, for example in an initialization phase. A connected object may transmit its (e.g., part of) model to the scene modelling system (e.g., on demand or upon detection of any change). An unconnected object (e.g., and its status) may be recognized in the scene from an image of the object, for example, captured in the scene.

Abstract: A medical delivery device suitable for insertion into a lumen of a patient, the medical device (100, 200) comprising a capsule (110, 120, 210, 220) sized to be inserted into the lumen, the capsule comprising a base member, and an actuation mechanism comprising an actuation member (150, 250, 350) configured for movement relative to the base member along an axis, and an energy source (140, 240, 340) associated with the actuation member for powering the actuation member to move relative to the base member along the axis. The base member and the actuation member define a latch assembly comprising: a) a dissolvable firing member (160, 260, 360), the dissolvable firing member being at least partially dissolvable when subjected to a biological fluid, b) a retainer portion (113, 213, 313) comprised by one of the base member and the actuation member, and c) a movable latch (152, 252, 352) configured for lateral movement relative to the axis, the movable latch defining a first surface with a blocking portion (153, 253, 353), and a second surface (152a, 252a, 352a) configured for interacting with the dissolvable firing member (160, 260, 360). In a pre-firing configuration, the blocking portion (153, 253, 353) of the movable latch engages the retainer portion (113, 213, 313) in a latching engagement, and the second surface (152a, 252a, 352a) of the movable latch interacts with the dissolvable firing member to restrict lateral movement of the movable latch thereby preventing release of the latching engagement. In a firing configuration where the dissolvable firing member (160, 260) has become at least partially dissolved, the movable latch is allowed to move laterally thereby releasing the latching engagement.

Abstract: In some examples, controlling delivery of CRT includes controlling an implantable medical device to deliver ventricular pacing according to a sequence of different values of a CRT parameter, and acquiring first and second electrograms from respective first and second electrode vectors. For each value of the CRT parameter, a value of a metric of comparison of a first activation interval between occurrences of a first fiducial of a cardiac cycle and a second fiducial of the cardiac cycle detected in the first electrogram to a second activation interval between occurrences of the first fiducial and the second fiducial detected in the second electrogram may be determined. A target value of the metric of comparison may be identified and an updated value of the CRT parameter determined based on the target value. The system then may control the IMD to deliver ventricular pacing at the updated value of the CRT parameter.

Abstract: A charging cable has a current sensor, a charging state indicator and logic circuitry to operate the indicator based on detected levels of current flow to a chargeable device. If the sensor detects current is below a low threshold, the logic circuitry operates the indicator to indicate that the cable is not connected to any chargeable device. If the sensor detects current at or above a higher threshold, the logic circuitry operates the indicator to provide a perceptible output indicating that the cable is connected to the chargeable device and the current is charging the battery. If the sensor detects current at or above the low threshold but below the high threshold, the logic circuitry operates the indicator to provide a perceptible output indicating that the cable is connected to a chargeable device but is not charging the battery of the device, e.g. when the battery is, or is nearly, fully charged.

Title: Method for predicting the response of antipsychotic drugs
Inventor: JAMAIN STÉPHANE
IPC: C12Q1/6883
Filed: 2020-04-23
Abstract: A fundamental shortcoming in the current treatment of schizophrenia is the lack of valid criteria to predict who will respond to antipsychotic treatment. The identification of blood- based biological markers of the therapeutic response would enable clinicians to identify the subgroup of patients in whom conventional antipsychotic treatment is ineffective and offer alternative treatments. As part of the Optimization of Treatment and Management of Schizophrenia in Europe (OPTiMiSE) programme, the inventors conducted a transcriptome analysis on 188 subjects with first episode psychosis, all of whom were subsequently treated with amisulpride for 4 weeks. They identify 32 genes for which the expression changed after treatment in good responders only. Among these genes, the expression of ALPL, a gene involved in vitamin B6 metabolism, as well as CA4, DGTA2, DHRS13, HOMER3 and WLS showed a significant difference in expression level between good and poor responders before starting treatment, allowing to predict treatment outcome with a predictive value of 93.8% when combined with clinical features Collectively, these findings identified new mechanisms to explain symptom improvement after amisulpride medication and highlight the potential of combining gene- expression profiling with clinical data to predict treatment response in first episode psychoses.
