20140344655 | Mapping of Defined Regions Within a Webpage - The present invention provides a method of providing manipulated content to a user from a website page. The method identifies the location and size of defined regions within a website page, such as document division elements. The site page is built on a virtual display, and a site page coordinate system is established to locate the defined region relative to an origin. The site page is then converted to an image file, where an image file coordinate system corresponds to the site page coordinate system to permit the locating and mapping of the defined regions images on the image file, for cropping and so that the original hyperlinks can be reassociated with the defined regions images. Individual defined regions images in cropped form may be communicated to and positioned on a user interface. An updated image may compared with the original image to determine if the content has changed. | 11-20-2014 |

20080288176 | Development of Prodrugs Possessing a Nitric Oxide Donor Diazen-1-Ium-1,2-Diolate Noiety Using in Vitro/in Silico Predictions - The present invention provides a method of using a physiologically-based pharmacokinetic model to select a prodrug molecule (NO—X) comprising a therapeutic agent X (e.g. nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, (NSAID)) and an appropriate nitric oxide donor NO. The NSAID can be a non-selective or selective cyclooxygenase inhibitor or other biocompatible compound comprising a carboxyl group. The pharmacokinetic model uses in vitro and/or in silico data to estimate an optimal set of parameters that can predict whether a particular NO—X candidate is capable of producing desirable therapeutic effects, e.g. enhanced anti-inflammatory activity, reduced intestinal, cardiac and renal toxicity. Accordingly, the present invention can greatly enhance proper selection of an appropriate candidate for drug development, thereby minimizing development time and conserving costs. | 11-20-2008 |
