Devices, Methods, and Graphical User Interfaces for Manipulating User Interface Objects with Visual and/or Haptic Feedback
ActiveUS20170046024A1Faster and efficient methodReduce the numberInput/output for user-computer interactionNatural language data processingGraphicsGraphical user interface
A device concurrently displays a background user interface and a first version of a notification associated with a first application. The device detects a first contact at a location that corresponds to the first version of the notification. In response to the detection, and upon a determination that the contact meets application-launching criteria, the device initiates a process to launch the first application. In response to the detecting, and upon a determination that the contact meets notification-expansion criteria, where the notification-expansion criteria require that the characteristic intensity of the contact meet a preview intensity threshold, the device displays a second version of the notification, where the second version of the notification has a size larger than the first version, includes expanded notification content that is not displayed in the first version, and is overlaid on the background user interface.

Apparatus and method for fat removal
InactiveUS20110046616A1Facilitate ablationFacilitate a rapid healing of the tissueSurgical instruments for heatingSubcutaneous fatty tissueRadiation pulse
Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus for heating and removing subcutaneous fatty tissue using radiation. For example, an ablative laser or the like can be configured to generate a small hole in skin tissue that passes through the entire layer of dermal tissue. The hole size can be small, e.g., on less than about 1 mm or 0.5 mm in diameter. Continued application of the radiation can heat and / or vaporize subcutaneous fat proximal to the lower portion of the hole. Expansion of the heated or vaporized fatty tissue can facilitate ejection of the fatty tissue from the formed hole. The energy of a radiation pulse used to form a hole and heat the fatty tissue can be, e.g., greater than about 0.5 J, e.g., between about 0.5 J and about 35 J. The skin tissue can be cooled or partially frozen before forming one or more such holes therein, and a stabilizing film or plate may be adhered to the skin surface to help stabilize the ablated holes.

Methods and compositions for treating melanoma
PendingUS20220220565A1Short survival timeKeep for a long timeOrganic active ingredientsMicrobiological testing/measurementMetastatic melanomaInvasive Melanoma
The present invention relates to a method and composition for treating melanoma, aggressive / invasive melanoma, metastatic melanoma or melanoma resistant. More particularly, inventors have shown that high expression of PTX3 correlates with melanoma invasiveness and with a poorer survival rate in metastatic melanoma patients. PTX3 knockdown inhibited melanoma cell migration, invasion, lung metastasis, and NFκB signaling pathway. An addition of melanoma-derived or recombinant PTX3, or overexpression of PTX3 enhanced motility of low migratory cells. Finally, they found that TLR4 and MYD88 knockdown or targeting inhibited PTX3-induced melanoma cell migration, suggesting that PTX3 functions through a TLR4 / NFκB-dependent pathway. Accordingly, the invention relates to a method for predicting the survival time of a subject suffering from melanoma, aggressive / invasive melanoma, metastatic melanoma or melanoma resistant by quantifying the expression level of PTX3 in a biological sample and to a method of treating melanoma, aggressive / invasive melanoma, metastatic melanoma or melanoma resistant by using the inhibitors of PTX3.
