| 20090222282 | Method for Personalized Diet Design - The present invention is directed to methods of developing dietary guidelines, particularly associated with dietary consumption of fatty acids. We discovered an association of a polymorphic marker with regulation of plasma lipid levels in response to dietary intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Accordingly, the present invention provides methods for providing individualized guidance in design of dietary interventions to alter plasma lipid profiles by genotyping APOA5 locus, wherein the presence of APOA5−1131C, APOA5−3G, APOA5 IVS3+476A, and APOA5 1259C alleles or alleles that are found to be in tight linkage disequilibrium with APOA5−1131C, APOA5−3G, APOA5 IVS3+476A, and APOA5 1259C alleles, is indicative of the individual being susceptible to altered plasma lipid levels in response to intake of n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids. | 09-03-2009 |
| 20100184081 | GENETIC MARKERS FOR OBESITY - The present invention is directed to new genetic variants or polymorphisms at the perilipin locus (PLIN) including PLIN1: 6209T (allele 1)>C (allele 2); PLIN3 10171 (allele 1) A >T (allele 2); PLIN4: 11482G (allele 1)>A (allele 2); PLIN5: 13041A (allele 1)>G (allele 2) and PLIN6: 14995A (allele 1)>T (allele 2), and their use in diagnostic and prognostic applications for obesity and obesity-related diseases, such as metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease. | 07-22-2010 |

| 20090313261 | PROTECTING A WEB APPLICATION AGAINST ATTACKS THROUGH SHARED FILES - A method of downloading a file from a Web application to a client computer equipped with a Web browser including: the Web browser sending an original request to download the file to a first front server, the original request being addressed to a URL comprising a hostname portion that is independent of the file, the first front server sending a redirection response to the original request, the response specifying a URL comprising a hostname portion that is dependent on the file, the Web browser sending a follow-up request to download the file to a second front server, the follow-up request being addressed to the URL specified in the redirection response, and the second front server downloading the requested file in response to the follow-up request. | 12-17-2009 |
| 20100100563 | METHOD OF COMPUTING A COOPERATIVE ANSWER TO A ZERO-RESULT QUERY THROUGH A HIGH LATENCY API - An information retrieval system including a user operated computer having a display and a storage facility, a search back-end containing an index into a collection of documents, the index defining results sets of queries relative to the collection of documents, and a search application stored in the storage facility which is executable by the computer to perform a method of providing a cooperative answer to a query submitted by the user, the submitted query having an empty result set, the cooperative answer comprising subqueries of the submitted query and, for each subquery, cardinality information indicative of whether the subquery has an empty result set. The method includes making an initial set of requests to the search back-end, a request specifying a query and calling for a response that provides cardinality information indicative of whether the subquery has an empty result set, the response being said to be positive if the result set is non-empty and negative if the result set is empty, the requests in the initial set of requests being made in parallel and specifying queries that are subqueries of the submitted query. When a positive response to a request is received, the method includes displaying the query specified by the request together with cardinality information provided by the response which enables the user to determine that the result set of the specified query is not empty, the specified query and the cardinality information being part of the cooperative answer. When a negative response to a request is received, the method includes making a subsequent set of requests to the search back-end, the requests being made in parallel and specifying queries that are subqueries of the query specified by the request for which the negative response is received. | 04-22-2010 |
| 20100100836 | FACILITATING BROWSING OF RESULT SETS - A method of facilitating the browsing of a plurality of result sets by a user. The method includes displaying a plurality of queries on a computer display, each query having a corresponding result set, the plurality of queries thereby constituting a set of displayed queries, and displaying the result set of a selected displayed query in response to the user selecting the query from the set of displayed queries via a user interface procedure, while continuing to display the set of displayed queries so the user can subsequently select other queries from the set of displayed queries to thereby interleave browsing the result sets of the queries in the set of displayed queries. | 04-22-2010 |
