摘要： The container inspection system operates globally at container handling facilities around the world and includes at least one transport apparatus located at a container handling facility having a spreader or other framework for connecting and handling cargo containers of all shapes and sizes. The transport apparatus is in communication with a computer network including several computing devices that provide to the transport apparatus comparison data including load models, load signatures, weight profile, and sensory limits related to a particular container. Sensors can be located on the spreader, inside the container, and invasively through the container and provide scanned characteristic data that is compared to the comparison data to determine a pass status or a fail status for the container. Ancillary data and authority input may be provided to the system by outside sources, such as other inspection systems and governmental entities. The transport apparatuses then move the connected container to a first location if a pass status is determined and a second location if a fail status is determined. The computer network may include a global host computer, a local host computer, and a local transport computer and employs expert system methodology.

摘要： Methods are provided for more accurately assessing cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in individuals or populations, using a bimodal analysis including cholesterol-based CVD risk markers together with serum triglyceride levels. Preferably, if a CVD marker (e.g., the ratio of total cholesterol to HDL) yields high risk factors, these factors may be adjusted in inverse relationship to serum triglyceride concentrations. If for example a given marker gives initial risk factors substantially equivalent to relative risk factors of about 1.5 or above, then the initial risk factors can be decreased if serum triglyceride levels are high, or increased if serum triglyceride levels are low. The invention is particularly useful for accurately assigning relative risk of mortality in the life insurance industry, and in decisions about prescribing or withholding medications.

摘要： A method and system for assessing blood volume within a subject includes generating a cardiovascular waveform representing physiological characteristics of a subject and determining blood volume of the subject by analyzing the cardiovascular waveform. The step of analyzing includes generating a first trace of the per heart-beat maximums of the cardiovascular waveform, which is representative of the systolic pressure upon the cardiovascular signal, generating a second trace of the per heart-beat minimums of the cardiovascular waveform, which is representative of the diastolic pressure upon the cardiovascular signal, and comparing the respective first trace and the second trace to generate an estimate of relative blood volume within the subject. In accordance with an alternate method of analyzing harmonic analysis is applied to the cardiovascular waveform, extracting a frequency signal created by ventilation and applying the extracted frequency signal in determining blood volume of the subject.
