20090083865 | Transgenic Mouse Lines Expressing Human Ace2 and Uses Thereof - Animal models for severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus infection of humans are needed to elucidate SARS pathogenesis and develop vaccines and antivirals. Transgenic mice were developed expressing human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2, a functional receptor for the virus, under the regulation of a global promoter. A transgenic lineage, designated AC70, was among the best characterized against SARS coronavirus infection, showing weight loss and other clinical manifestations before reaching 100% mortality within 8 days after intranasal infection. Inflammatory mediators were also detected in these tissues, coinciding with high levels of virus replication. In contrast, infected transgene-negative mice survived without showing any clinical illness. The severity of the disease developed in these transgenic mice, AC70 in particular, makes these mouse models valuable not only for evaluating the efficacy of antivirals and vaccines, but also for studying SARS coronavirus pathogenesis and infection by other coronaviruses utilizing human ACE2 for viral entry into cells. | 03-26-2009 |

20140362213 | RESIDENCE FALL AND INACTIVITY MONITORING SYSTEM - A surveillance system for residential buildings that monitors the status of occupants for their location, position, and movement. The system employs a sensor that is mounted near the ceiling or on the floor in each room of the residence. Each sensor continuously scans the X, Y and Z axes for the location and position of objects each room. The sensors are coupled to a digital image processor that uses software to evaluate the stream of location and position data to determine whether occupants are moving, and whether their activity indicates an or normal or emergency condition. The surveillance system can be adapted for any building or room configuration because upon setup it generates and stores a database of map information about the building it is installed within and that map data is thereafter used to evaluate the stream of location and position data. When abnormal location, position or movement of a monitored object, typically a senior citizen, is detected by the system an alarm state is automatically triggered and an emergency notification signal is transmitted to emergency response personnel. | 12-11-2014 |
