| 20150337310 | SPLICE MODULATING OLIGONUCLEOTIDES THAT INHIBIT CANCER - A method of treating cancer in a subject is provided. The method includes administering a splice modulating oligonucleotide to the subject in an amount effective to provide a therapeutic benefit to the subject. In the method, the oligonucleotide modifies splicing of a pre-mRNA encoding a polypeptide, and either: reduces expression of the polypeptide if the polypeptide promotes cancer cell survival, proliferation, and/or metastasis, or promotes angiogenesis, or a combination thereof; or increases expression of the polypeptide if the polypeptide inhibits cancer cell survival, proliferation and/or metastasis, or inhibits angiogenesis, or a combination thereof. Similar methods of treating diseases involving prolactin or the prolactin receptor are also provided. | 11-26-2015 |

| 20160136808 | Real-Time Determination of Object Metrics for Trajectory Planning - Example systems and methods may be used to determine a trajectory for moving an object using a robotic device. One example method includes determining a plurality of possible trajectories for moving an object with an end effector of a robotic manipulator based on a plurality of possible object measurements. The method may further include causing the robotic manipulator to pick up the object with the end effector. After causing the robotic manipulator to pick up the object with the end effector, the method may also include receiving sensor data from one or more sensors indicative of one or more measurements of the object. Based on the received sensor data, the method may additionally include selecting a trajectory for moving the object from the plurality of possible trajectories. The method may further include causing the robotic manipulator to move the object through the selected trajectory. | 05-19-2016 |

| 20150174359 | PULSE SATURATION OXYGEN DELIVERY SYSTEM AND METHOD - A system and method for delivering oxygen to a passenger of an aircraft including a a supply of oxygen, an oral-nasal mask, a controller for adjusting a flow of oxygen from the supply of oxygen to the oral-nasal mask, and a sensor for determining a user's blood oxygen saturation level, wherein the controller adjusts the flow of oxygen based on the sensor's determination of the user's blood oxygen saturation level. | 06-25-2015 |
| 20150196784 | OXYGEN FLOW INDICATOR USING FLOW-POWERED ILLUMINATION - A flow indicator of a breathing apparatus that indicates a flow of a breathing-gas includes a structure within a conduit for delivering the breathable gas, where the structure undergoes a change as a result of a presence of the breathable gas or a movement of the breathable gas past the structure. The flow indicator also includes a gas flow display that is actuated by the change in the structure to visually indicate a presence or flow of the breathable gas, where the display is powered by the change in the structure without any outside power supply. | 07-16-2015 |
