An electrode assembly including: a plurality of medical electrode members; and at least two covering sheets removably attached to the plurality of medical electrode members. The at least one covering sheet includes: a first covering sheet removably attached to one side of each of the plurality of medical electrode members; and a second covering sheet removably attached to an opposite side of each of the plurality of medical electrode members.

Isotropic generalized diffusion tensor imaging methods and apparatus are configured to obtain signal attenuations using selected sets of applied magnetic field gradient directions whose averages produce mean apparent diffusion constants (mADCs) over a wide range of b-values, associated with higher order diffusion tensors (HOT). These sets are selected based on analytical descriptions of isotropic HOTs and the associated averaged signal attenuations are combined to produce mADCs, or probability density functions of intravoxel mADC distributions. Estimates of biologically-specific rotation-invariant parameters for quantifying tissue water mobilities or other tissue characteristics can be obtained such as Traces of HOTs associated with diffusion and mean t-kurtosis.

A platform system for remotely monitoring one or more behavioral event of at least one user is disclosed. The platform system includes at least one computer system having an internet connection and at least one web application, the at least one computer system having a memory for storing an array of contextual data relating to the at least one user; at least one wearable device having a processor and being communicatively connected to the at least one user and being in electronic communication with the at least one computer system, the at least one wearable device having one or more sensors for detecting physiological data of the at least one user, the at least one wearable device having a memory for storing an array of physiological data detected by the one or more sensors; wherein the processor of the at least one wearable device determines a behavioral event relating to the at least one user based on the array of physiological data in view of the array of contextual data, the processor communicating the behavioral event to the computer system; and wherein the computer system provides a notification relating to the behavioral event.

Provided herein are methods and kits for determining receptivity status of an endometrium for embryonic implantation.

The disclosure relates to a method for the interactive acquisition of data from an object under investigation by a magnetic resonance system. The data is acquired from the object under investigation with the magnetic resonance system and images are automatically reconstructed and displayed in real time based on the data. A time interval is determined during which a predetermined condition is met in the images. Quality images are automatically reconstructed based on the data acquired within the time interval. The temporal resolution during reconstruction of the quality images is higher than the temporal resolution during reconstruction of the images.

Utilizing a computing device to generate a personalized maternal nutrition plan for a pregnant mother. The computing device receives real-time maternal physiological data, fetal physiological data, and real-time environmental data associated with the pregnant mother. A real-time relationship is established. The real-time relationship is compared with historically established relationships between pregnant mothers and fetuses. The maternal physiological data is compared with pre-pregnancy data of the pregnant mother. The computing device detects one or more abnormalities in the real-time established relationship between the pregnant mother and the fetus based upon the comparison of the real-time established relationship with historically established relationships and the comparison of the maternal physiological data with pre-pregnancy data of the pregnant mother. The computing device generates a maternal nutrition plan. A notification is generated by the computing device and outputted to one or more electronic devices associated with the pregnant mother and/or one or more physicians.

Systems and methods for determining timing of parturition onset in non-human animals are provided. Specifically, a software application platform which provides a user with the ability to receive customized information relating to an animal's estimated parturition onset as displayed on a user interface. A user can input data, for example, one or more animal specific biomarkers, and subsequently receive identification of a predicted parturition onset timing and customized recommendations and/or intervention steps for the specific animal

In order to objectively grasp a stress state of a user and to prevent postpartum depression, biological gas information is acquired via a network, where the biological gas information indicates a concentration of 2-phenoxyethanol of the user and is obtained by a sensor that detects 2-phenoxyethanol released from a skin surface of the user. From a memory storing information including an upper limit of a normal range of the concentration of 2-phenoxyethanol per unit period, the information indicating the upper limit of the normal range is read out. When a frequency in the unit period with which the concentration of 2-phenoxyethanol of the user exceeds the upper limit of the normal range is determined to have an increasing tendency based on the biological gas information obtained during a pregnancy period of the user, the information related to stress of the user is output to an information terminal of the user.

Disclosed is a method for assistance with the establishment of a diagnosis of a patient, starting from at least one identified sign, and based on a computerized knowledge database including a medical ontology. The medical ontology includes: a list of signs forming a “sign” class; a list of pathological states forming a “pathological state” class; and a first set of logical relationships between the signs and the pathological states, each logical relationship establishing a correlative link between a sign and a pathological state. The method includes: a step of searching for potential pathological states, linked to at least one of the identified signs by the first set of logical relationships; and a step of identifying potential signs in which, for each potential pathological state, all of the signs linked by a correlative link to the potential pathological state are identified by the first set of logical relationships.

A device for determining physiological data through analysis of human excrement in a toilet using at least one indicator and/or sensor, and a method for determining physiological data by analysis of human excrement in a toilet by measurement of urine and/or stool values, in order to achieve maximally universal use of the device, including in a wide variety of toilet designs, with reasonable design effort and manageable costs. A measurement system, in which an indicator or sensor can be brought into a measurement position, in which sufficient contact with the urine or stool to be examined occurs via an arm for each measurement, wherein the indicator or sensor is/are designed as (an) independent unit(s), and by a corresponding method in which a plurality of previously determined values are measured and then processed further and forwarded as applicable.
