| 20100115421 | WEB-BASED GENETICS ANALYSIS - Techniques for allowing doctors and clinicians to upload genetic data associated with patients for comparison with previously-uploaded genetic data associated with other patients are described herein. These techniques may also allow doctors and clinicians to create notations associated with uploaded patient data. Both the previously-uploaded data as well as the created notations may be used by doctors and clinicians in attempting to diagnosis patients. That is, these techniques allow previously-acquired knowledge to be widely shared for the future benefit in attempting to detect genetic syndromes. | 05-06-2010 |
| 20110086772 | MULTIPLEX (+/-) STRANDED ARRAYS AND ASSAYS FOR DETECTING CHROMOSOMAL ABNORMALITIES ASSOCIATED WITH CANCER AND OTHER DISEASES - Multiplex (+/−) stranded analyses, such as array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH), are provided for detecting chromosomal rearrangements associated with cancer and other diseases. For example, an illustrative multiplex array for CGH includes discrete plus (+) strand and minus (−) strand DNA probes, complementary to each other but separable on the CGH array. The minus (−) strand DNA probes recover diagnostic information lost to conventional microarrays, since many genes transcribe from the minus (−) strand. In an illustrative system, patient and control DNA samples are prepared for CGH by amplification and labeling using comprehensive primers that generate both plus (+) strands and minus (−) strands of DNA in the samples. The breakpoints of a translocated chromosome may be detected on a multiplex microarray by DNA probes of one polarity, while DNA copy number changes associated with the translocation region may be detected by corresponding DNA probes of the complementary polarity. Related methods for identifying translocation partner genes are also provided. | 04-14-2011 |

| 20100167953 | METHODS AND APPARATUSES FOR COMPARATIVE GENOMIC MICROARRAY ANALYSIS - Control nucleic acids and their method of use to simultaneously test for numerous genetic alterations that involve an unbalanced arrangement of chromosomes. One implementation increases reliability and accuracy by adding additional nucleic acid to test and/or reference samples. Clones representing segments insensitive to chromosomal rearrangements are placed in non-adjacent target areas of a microarray to avoid interfering hybridization reactions. | 07-01-2010 |
| 20100281401 | Interactive Genome Browser - Disclosed is an interactive genome browser executing within a web browser application, configured to display patient genetic data and additional genetic data tracks which are aligned by base pair. Additional tracks may include public data, community data, private data, sequence gaps, and additional genetic tests or probes which are available. Tests or probes may be ordered by selecting them from a test or probe track. Data in a genetic information database may also be searched using the interactive genome browser. Analyzed patient data may be published and made available to a community of users, which may communicate with one another. | 11-04-2010 |

| 20090075835 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR THE DETECTION OF MICRODELETION AND MICRODUPLICATION SYNDROMES - Methods for diagnosing the presence or absence of a genetic disorder in a patient are provided, wherein the genetic disorder is associated with a chromosomal abnormality at 1q41q42 and/or 16p11.2p12.2, and wherein the genetic disorder is not Fryns syndrome or congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). Materials, such as microarrays for use in microarray CGH, and kits for use in such methods are also provided. | 03-19-2009 |

| 20100126575 | TEXTURED TRANSPARENT CONDUCTIVE LAYER AND METHOD OF PRODUCING IT - The textured transparent conductive layer according to the invention is deposited on a substrate intended for a photoelectric device and exhibiting a surface morphology formed from a sequence of humps and hollows. It is characterized in that its hollows have a rounded base with a radius of more than 25 nm; the said hollows are virtually smooth, which is to say that, where they exhibit microroughnesses, these microroughnesses have a height on average of less than 5 nm; and its flanks form an angle with the plane of the substrate whose median of the absolute value is between 30° and 75°. | 05-27-2010 |

| 20090264267 | Exercise Rod and Exercise Methods - An exercise rod device comprises an elongate, flexible body portion and a pair of grip sections positioned on opposite ends of the rod. At least one of the grip sections is configured to allow a user to grasp an end of the rod when performing exercises. At least one of the grip sections includes indicia associated therewith, the indicia dividing the grip section into at least two distinct force zones, the force zones providing differing force responses when engaged by a user when flexing the rod. | 10-22-2009 |
