    Abstract: Suture tensioning systems, methods, and devices include a suture device for extracting a suture thread from a patient and then determining a location to secure the suture knot based on a balanced tension measurement. The suture device has a needle pass mount with needle passes, and a slidable eyelet assembly positioned opposite the needle passes. The eyelet assembly includes gripping portions for moving the eyelet assembly relative to other components of the suture device. Accordingly, eyelets extending from the eyelet assembly move through the needle pass mounts and extend out the needle passes. With the suture thread secured in the extended eyelet, the eyelet assembly is retracted. The suture thread is attached to a tensioning bar and tension meter. The tension meter indicates if the suture tension is within a threshold range and comparable to the opposite side, and a precise tying location for the suture knot is determined.

    Abstract: In one aspect, the disclosure relates to compounds that are inhibitors of KRAS, and the disclosed compounds are allosteric inhibitors of KRAS which render them extremely useful for therapeutic intervention in a variety of disorders and diseases in which inhibition of DHODH can be clinically useful, e.g., cancer. In various aspects, the disclosed compounds are substituted 7-(piperazin-1-yl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine analogs. In further aspects, the disclosed compounds can be used in methods of treating a cancer. This abstract is intended as a scanning tool for purposes of searching in the particular art and is not intended to be limiting of the present disclosure.

    Abstract: A novel framework to transform a T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoire sample into a fixed-length vector. Short peptide sequences with different lengths in each TCR may be encoded into a numeric vector with fixed dimensions. A large amount of existing TCRs from healthy individuals may be pooled to generate a distribution of the encoding vector in a high-dimensional Euclidean space. Unsupervised clustering may be performed on the “points” in this space (each point is a TCR) to group them into antigen-specific clusters. The centroid of each cluster may be defined as a repertoire functional unit (“RFU”). For a new TCR repertoire sample, each TCR may be assigned to its most similar RFU group, and the RFU counts may be normalized by the number of sequences in the repertoire. The output data may be a fixed-length RFU vector, with each number representing the relative abundance of the given RFU in the repertoire.
