HY Medical AI and You'an Hospital join forces in the battle against NCP

BEIJING, Feb 28, 2020 - (JCN Newswire) - Professor Li Hongjun, Chairman of the Professional Committee of Infectious Disease Radiology of the Chinese Medical Association Radiology Branch and Director of the Department of Radiology of You'an Hospital, along with members of the committee worked through the Spring Festival holidays, racing against time to launch the first "Handbook of Medical Imaging Diagnosis of NCP" (English and Chinese Edition). Under the leadership of Director Li Hongjun, You'an hospital continues to fight the battle to defend the public health. Recently, HY Medical's NCP AI imaging intelligent solution has been stationed in You'an Hospital, bringing practical intelligent assistance to the complete process of screening, diagnosis and treatment of the NPC epidemic.

HY Medical: How will AI join forces in the battle against NCP?

The coronavirus infection, also known as COVID-19, hit with a relentless fury since its initial outbreak in Wuhan, China. As of Feb 24, 2020, there have been 2,000 reported deaths out of 70,000 infected so far.

Medical imaging plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and treatment of Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia (NCP), from early discovery of lung abnormalities in suspect cases, to confirming diagnosis and/or determining level of progression, from excluding suspect cases through differential diagnosis, to forming and adjusting treatment plans, as well as tracking conditional development and evaluating the final treatment efficacy and outcome.

"Real" AI for real assistance, Fight the epidemic hand in hand

Starting with the algorithm, the HY Medical team collected large amounts of NPC data in real time and obtained precise labelling from a professional panel of doctors to use as the base for their deep learning algorithm. The HY Medical AI system automatically adapts to images from different hospitals, different equipment, and different layer thicknesses, as well as apply self-iteration and model optimizations. The detection and accuracy rate of NPC lesions have reached 96%; combined with technologies such as efficient processors and lightweight network models, it only takes 2-3 seconds to process a CT study with 500 images.

According to on-site personnel, "CT data is but a collection of values used to describe density, CT values alone will not help in determining the various types of indicators in data. Selecting precise labeled data + deep learning algorithm can help demarcate each individual lesion, providing precise contour and volume. AI products play a key role in assisting doctors with their diagnosis, its ability to accurately pin-point the position and identify lesions is of great value in clinical practice."

We have also identified new growth areas and development directions setting a course for our sustainable development. In all, we are confident that our business strategy can advance the Group to new heights in the coming few years."

Business Review

Cultural and Entertainment Business
As a key income source of the Group, the overall business performance of the cultural and entertainment comprehensive platform services was strengthened and segment revenue increased by 33.6% to HK$346.5 million for the Reporting Period. The improvement was primarily due to the new business of trading of goods of HK$90.1 million. The Group co-operated with several reputable liquor brands and agents to sell popular liquors during the Reporting Period.

To date, the Group's comprehensive services platform, which can be divided into three main categories of "Entertainment Operations Management Solutions and Consulting Services", "Comprehensive Entertainment Supply Chain Services" and "Product Promotion and Marketing Planning Services", provided the following services:

Contracting services and entertainment equipment solution - Providing and supplying customised and thematic entertainment equipment and software materials integration services to customers, which enable to achieve good stage and visual effect, such as thematic equipment of bar lighting, audio and audio system, stage machinery, etc.;
4. Trading of goods - Trading of wine and liquor, e-cigarettes and daily supplies to entertainment stores and NOD Union members;
5. Artist agency - Providing booking coordination services of international popular disc jockey and artist agency service to bars, club and lounges;
6. Products promotion services - Including wine, liquor, e-cigarettes, power bank and other product promoting services for suppliers.

The Group has commenced comprehensive wine & liquor supplying and solution services to entertainment stores and NOD Union members. These services not only have enjoyed a good start, recording a sustainable relationship with its customers, but also brought synergies to supplement the growth of its comprehensive services platform. With the connection and customer base of NOD Union, the Group has generated a satisfactory revenue and will continue to explore the market.

Financing Services
In order to maximise its value and generate the most profit during the Reporting Period, the Group has managed the operations as one synergistic whole. Financing, as a main component, contributes to the Group's operations. The overall financing services business performance was strengthening and revenue had increased by 768% to HK$34.2 million for the Reporting Period.

Exhibition and Events Business
During the Reporting Period, NOVA has generated an increasing profit in exhibition and exhibition-related services. Thanks to the launching of "unmanned self-serviced stores exhibition", named the third edition of Unattended Retail Exhibition, and the first edition of the Important Product Tracing Expo held during 21 to 23 August 2019 in at Shanghai Hongqiao National Exhibition Centre. Both events had attracted over 280 exhibitors to participate. On top of that, it has also completed over 45 medium-sized event planning projects in the PRC.

From the above, the Group recorded HK$45.9 million in revenue, representing an increase of 143.8% compared with the corresponding period. Moving forward, the Group will continue to seek new business partners and organisers in the PRC, as well as explore opportunities to cooperate with industry associations or government organisations to participate in new exhibitions.

Outlook

The PRC is facing challenges lately, be it the impact from the China-US trade war and the coronavirus outbreak. The overall economy is likely to continue contracting in 2020. Due to that, the Group will be more prudent in managing exhibition and entertainment business operations and evaluating business development opportunities to diversify the revenue sources and strengthen the competitive advantages in order to minimise the possible exposure to the uncertainties in both the Hong Kong and PRC markets.

Given that more cultural and entertainment store customers are relying on network information of new products and services, it is vital to expand NOVA's foothold and upgrad its network software in the comprehensive services platform, which is included but not limited to an one-stop entertainment software-as-a-service (SaaS) application, namely Great Wisdom Entertainment online. This network software services will enable its suppliers, existing store customers and NOD Union members to access to the products and services information and details from the e-platform, which can also decrease their cost of inventory management and boost their brand awareness. The Group will focus on the e-platform and provide more comprehensive services to its existing members, customers and suppliers moving forwards.

Mr XU Feng, Chief Executive Officer of NOVA Group, concluded, "Our professional and attentive services not only resolves problems of our customers, it also further tightens our binding relationships and their reliance on us. Even under the challenging market environment, we will keep looking for new solutions and bring in fresh ideas to our customers and to the industry, ensuring a stable and healthy business growth for all parties. We will continue to execute pragmatic yet aggressive business strategies as we have previously done in an effort to achieve long-term stable growth and bring promising returns to our shareholders."

Bringing the green revolution to electronics

Tsukuba, Japan, Feb 28, 2020 - (ACN Newswire) - Researchers are investigating how to make electronic components from eco-friendly, biodegradable materials to help address a growing public health and environmental problem: around 50 million tonnes of electronic waste are produced every year.


Designing electronics components using more eco-friendly materials could help reduce the impacts of the 50 million tonnes of e-waste produced annually.


Less than 20% of the e-waste we produce is formally recycled. Much of the rest ends up in landfills, contaminating soil and groundwater, or is informally recycled, exposing workers to hazardous substances like mercury, lead and cadmium. Improper e-waste management also leads to a significant loss of scarce and valuable raw materials, like gold, platinum and cobalt. According to a UN report, there is 100 times more gold in a tonne of e-waste than in a tonne of gold ore.

While natural biomaterials are flexible, cheap and biocompatible, they do not conduct an electric current very well. Researchers are exploring combinations with other materials to form viable biocomposite electronics, explain Ye Zhou of China's Shenzhen University and colleagues in the journal Science and Technology of Advanced Materials.

The scientists expect that including biocomposite materials in the design of electronic devices could lead to vast cost saving, open the door for new types of electronics due to the unique material properties, and find applications in implantable electronics due to their biodegradability.

For example, there is widespread interest in developing organic field effect transistors (FET), which use an electric field to control the flow of electric current and could be used in sensors and flexible flat-panel displays.

Flash memory devices and biosensor components made with biocomposites are also being studied. For example, one FET biosensor incorporated a calmodulin-modified nanowire transistor. Calmodulin is an acidic protein that can bind to different molecules, so the biosensor could be used for detecting calcium ions.

Researchers are especially keen to find biocomposite materials that work well in resistive random access memory (RRAM) devices. These devices have non-volatile memory: they can continue to store data even after the power switch is turned off. Biocomposite materials are used for the insulating layer sandwiched between two conductive layers. Researchers have experimented with dispersing different types of nanoparticles and quantum dots within natural materials, such as silk, gelatin and chitosan, to improve electron transfer. An RRAM made with cetyltrimethylammonium-treated DNA embedded with silver nanoparticles has also shown excellent performance.

"We believe that functional devices made with these fascinating materials will become promising candidates for commercial applications in the near future with the development of materials science and advances in device manufacturing and optimization technology," the researchers conclude.

ZALL Smart Commerce Group Sends Medical Supplies from Across Asia to Fight the Outbreak

SINGAPORE, Feb 28, 2020 - (ACN Newswire) - ZALL Smart Commerce Group (ZALL), the premier e-commerce group in Asia, is leading the charge to provide medical supplies and humanitarian aid to the field hospitals and quarantine facilities in Hubei and Wuhan, as they continue their battle against the coronavirus (2019-nCoV) outbreak.

To date, ZALL has provided six air cargo shipments of emergency medical supplies, including masks, protective clothing, goggles, gloves, and disinfectants sourced from Asian countries including Cambodia, India, Japan, and the Philippines for the equivalence of RMB60 million (S$11.9 million).

Mr Peter Yu, ZALL Deputy Chief Executive said, "We were the first company to react to the shortage of medical resources in Wuhan, mobilizing partners across the Asian region to deliver emergency medical supplies including 3.2 million facemasks and 210,000 of medical protective clothing on 26 January, within 48 hours of the city's lockdown, tapping our global end-to-end supply chain networks and resources in Asia."

On the ground, ZALL partnered with local facilities to set up seven emergency hospitals and two quarantine field facilities in Wuhan and Hubei comprising of 7,500 beds, helping to alleviate the severe hospital bed shortage at the epicentre, and donated 10 new negative-pressure ambulances to transport coronavirus patients.

Since the lockdown, all flights and passenger train services from Wuhan have been cancelled and stopped, while intra-city transport such as buses, subways, and ferries are being suspended. The Hubei government has further imposed a ban on vehicle transport across the province to curb the spread of the virus.

Despite these restrictions, ZALL was able to secure the assistance of governments, embassies and civil aviation authorities in China, Cambodia and Japan, designating green lanes for expedited customs clearance, and arrange air cargo shipments for the emergency medical deliveries to Hubei and Wuhan.

"We have our eyes on global supply chains, and our immediate efforts have been to provide assistance to areas where we are seeing the greatest shortages in medical aid and equipment. We have been working with our best efforts to alleviate the crises," added Mr Yu.

ZALL incorporates environmental and social sustainability as part of its long-term growth strategy, and has invested in a number of sustainable development initiatives across the region. These include building schools to provide equal access to quality education, supporting the breeding of critically endangered species to protect terrestrial ecosystems and biodiversity, investing in clean and affordable energy to tackle climate change, and digital banking to cater to the underserved SMEs and retail customers in Asia.

Since 2018, ZALL has invested in four projects in Singapore, including the Commodities Intelligence Centre (CIC), Singapore's first physical commodity eTrading platform (B2B) powered by blockchain technology; ZMA Smart Capital, an online trade finance company; ZALL Chain Technology, a blockchain solutions company; and the recent application for the Singapore digital banking licence. Through these and future initiatives, ZALL hopes to contribute to the development of digital finance, blockchain solutions and the trading ecosystem in Singapore.

当社は2003年より、リサイクル手法の一つである“ケミカルリサイクル”による使用済プラスチックのリサイクル事業を展開中です。当社川崎事業所では、回収された使用済プラスチックを熱分解によりガス化し、水素や一酸化炭素を取り出し、化学品の原料として利用しています。一酸化炭素は炭酸製品に、水素はアンモニアの原料として利用するほか燃料電池車やホテルに設置された燃料電池での発電用として供給するなど、低炭素社会実現に向けた取り組みにも貢献しています。このような使用済プラスチックを焼却処理しないことによるCO2排出削減だけでなく、陸上での資源循環を推進し、海洋流出するプラスチックの削減に寄与する取り組みであることが高く評価され、今回の受賞となりました。

当社グループは、当ケミカルリサイクルをはじめ、鉄のリサイクルに必ず使われる黒鉛電極の世界各地への供給や、日本で最初にアルミ缶リサイクル活動に取り組み、回収済アルミ缶を新たなアルミ缶として製造する(can-to-can)など、環境に配慮した事業活動を積極的に推進しています。

引き続き、社会的課題の解決に貢献する製品・技術・サービスの提供に取り組み、地球環境負荷低減へ貢献してまいります。

*「地球環境大賞」は1992年、産業界を対象とする顕彰制度として、フジサンケイグループが公益財団法人世界自然保護基金(WWF)ジャパンの特別協力を得て創設した賞。本制度は地球温暖化防止や循環型社会の実現に寄与する新技術・新製品の開発、環境保全活動・事業の促進や、地球環境に対する保全意識の一段の向上を目的としており、これらに関して顕著な功績が認められる企業などに贈られる。

ERB Strengthens Cooperation with McKINLEY for Global Market Expansion

TALLINN, EE, Feb 27, 2020 - (ACN Newswire) - ERB, a Tallinn EE registered cryptocurrency exchange and investment platform, announces a world's first PDG-based (Project Default Guarantee) liquidity program, designed for both companies and investors. A Design to Build Trust, this Win-Win Investment Platform is backed by a US$1 billion investment and US$5 billion PDG Financial Assurance Agreement with McKINLEY Investment LLC.USA.


"The scope I think is not ‘Win-Win’ exclusively between us. It is ‘Win-Win’ between the investor and the investment, and between the same investors."


The ERB investment platform will be of essential help to many small and medium-size companies suffering from financial shortfall due to the economic recession and the global impact of COVID-19. Platforms exist to match the sides, but don't address the insecurity and lack of investor information, and the often preclusive risk of non-performance or default. ERB's platform offers this help, as its PDG program returns all principal if an investment ends in failure or company closure. Innovation in financial markets has arrived, and investors can finally choose a "low-risk, high-yield" policy.

ERB Chairman Eom Meen, "Our PDG program is not an exchange loss, on the contrary. PDG expenditure ensures new investors and adds liquidity. Some may doubt their investment security, yet as the PDG platform provides investors with a profitable return, these doubts will be transformed to building trust, that is, trust in the ERB ecosystem. The power of trust. Projects that are trusted by investors are bound to succeed.

"When individuals begin to lead institutional investors, and government agencies and large investment trusts start to look for secure investments, the ERB platform will be the biggest winner. And larger amounts for accepted investments on our platform will increasingly strengthen the investment environment to form an increasingly safe ecosystem."

About ERB
ERB is a cryptocurrency exchange established in Tallinn EE and creator of a unique exchange-based liquidity supply platform built on the ERO (Exchange Right Offering) Platform. In August 2019, McKINLEY agreed to provide PDG (Project Default Guarantee) for the Exchange, the world's first. Based on enhanced CDS (Credit Default Swap) programs, a PDG Program was developed combining McKINLEY's financial services program with ERB's liquidity supply mechanism. With this, ERB and McKINLEY aim to strengthen global business and raise the supply of liquidity with further alliances.

AIM ImmunoTech joins with ChinaGoAbroad for an Ampligen China Entry against COVID-19

OCALA, FL / ACCESSWIRE, Feb 27, 2020 - (ACN Newswire) - AIM ImmunoTech (NYSE American: AIM, or the Company), an immuno-pharma company focused on the research and development of therapeutics to treat immune disorders, viral diseases and multiple types of cancers, today announced that the Company has joined with ChinaGoAbroad (CGA) to facilitate the entry of AIM's experimental drug Ampligen into the People's Republic of China (PRC) for use as a prophylactic/early-onset therapeutic against COVID-19, the new SARS-like coronavirus infection that has reached epidemic proportions.

CGA is a member-based online information platform and offline advisory firm serving to facilitate two-way international transactions relating to the PRC in close collaboration with the China Overseas Development Association (CODA), which had up until recently reported to the PRC National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), which in turn reports to the State Council (China's cabinet). CGA is already involved in China's ongoing efforts to halt the growing COVID-19 epidemic and, among other engagements, has been assigned to assist with the international purchase by Sinopharm Group - a Chinese state pharmaceutical company - of technology, masks, gowns and gloves.

"AIM is working aggressively to advance the introduction of Ampligen into China, in order to provide the Chinese people with a potential first line of defense against the deadly COVID-19 virus. AIM and CGA have taken this first step to facilitate discussions with the Chinese government for Ampligen's entry into China as a targeted prophylactic/early-onset therapy," said AIM CEO Thomas K. Equels. "Ampligen achieved a 100% survival rate, as compared to 100% mortality in the untreated control animals, in SARS animal experiments after the outbreak in 2003. In these experiments, Ampligen was administered to mice prior to and shortly after infection. The Company believes that Ampligen may provide similarly effective prophylaxis against COVID-19, as both coronaviruses are extremely similar in key regulatory RNA sequences essential for coronaviral replication."

Ampligen has a well-developed safety profile based on approximately 100,000 IV doses administered to humans and is ready to deploy for clinical trials in China if trials are approved by the PRC authorities and if Ampligen is authorized for export under the FDA regulations governing the export of investigational drugs for use in a sudden and immediate national emergency. (See: "Ampligen as an Antiviral," safety slides 7-15, at https://aimimmuno.com/events-presentations/).

ChinaGoAbroad CEO Jesse T H Chang states: "Ampligen has the potential to be a groundbreaking life-saving protective therapy. This drug may be useful for doctors, nurses, healthcare professionals, first responders and people exposed to the virus. Without better protection, infected professionals in our medical teams may continue to become martyrs on the frontlines of the battle against this highly contagious virus. If Ampligen works in the clinic against COVID-19 the same way it worked in the SARS experiments, a protective drug such as Ampligen - unlike a mask and gloves - would provide immunological protection from the inside. For those inadvertently exposed to the virus, it may provide hope against infection or development of the disease. Such a protective therapy would also become an important public health tool against exposed people spreading the disease. We are excited and indeed honored to work with AIM ImmunoTech on this endeavor so important to the Chinese people."

About AIM ImmunoTech Inc

AIM ImmunoTech Inc. is an immuno-pharma company focused on the research and development of therapeutics to treat immune disorders, viral diseases and multiple types of cancers. AIM's flagship products include the Argentina-approved drug rintatolimod (trade names Ampligen(R) or Rintamod(R)) and the FDA-approved drug Alferon N Injection(R). Based on results of published, peer-reviewed pre-clinical studies and clinical trials, AIM believes that Ampligen(R) may have broad-spectrum anti-viral and anti-cancer properties. Clinical trials of Ampligen(R) include studies of cancer patients with renal cell carcinoma, malignant melanoma, colorectal cancer, advanced recurrent ovarian cancer and triple negative metastatic breast cancer. These and other potential uses will require additional clinical trials to confirm the safety and effectiveness data necessary to support regulatory approval and additional funding. Rintatolimod is a double-stranded RNA being developed for globally important debilitating diseases and disorders of the immune system.

CloserStill Media launches Green World Asia, a sustainability-focused platform for business

SINGAPORE, Feb 27, 2020 - (JCN Newswire) - CloserStill Media is launching a new B2B event, Green World Asia, that will connect sustainability-driven innovations to senior decision-makers and their procurement chains from various industries. The show will focus on four key pillars across the exhibition showcase and conference programme: Utilities, Resources, Materials and Food Waste.

Green World Asia will debut at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore on November 18-19, 2020. The launch show is expected to attract over 5,000 industry delegates, featuring 100 exhibitors and 100 global expert speakers in a multi-stream conference programme over two days.

This expansion into the sustainability sector by CloserStill Media is driven by the global economic climate and an immense desire to help propel businesses, big and small, towards sustainable innovations and practices which result in commercial success for organisations, and the future of people & planet.

Green World Asia will serve as a practical access-to-market platform for organisations to connect, learn and be inspired by the vast possibilities of sustainable solutions. Visitors to Green World Asia can look forward to discovering the latest solutions that will address the challenges of creating sustainability-led practices whilst continuing to generate profit.

Commenting on the need for connecting organisations with vendors providing sustainable solutions, Green World Asia Co-founders James Murphy and Neil Halliday said, "Businesses are coming under immense pressure from internal and external stakeholders, to adopt green practices aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Many are struggling to get access to alternative solutions, or knowledge to build sustainability-driven strategies into the core of their business."

"We are launching Green World Asia as a free-to-attend tradeshow to eliminate any barriers keeping companies from accessing practical knowledge and sourcing options." they added.

Tom Peacock-Nazil, Founder of Seven Clean Seas, noted: "When it comes to sustainability, the world has needed less words and more action for decades. Finally, we are witnessing an upsurge in corporate responsibility and mass alignment of institutional capital to ESG principles. It's great to see many players from many sectors today who are focusing on sustainability, and Green World Asia as a platform is well positioned and timed to act as the catalyst for connecting them."

Innovation at the Heart of Sustainability

Participating at Green World Asia is Canada-based next-generation manufacturing and design company, ChopValue that turns used chopsticks into high-performance material for commercial and residential use. Mr. Felix Böck, founder and CEO of ChopValue said: "Participating in Green World Asia is a great opportunity for us to connect with business professionals in Asia and showcase the benefits of the circular economy versus linear economy."

Another confirmed exhibitor, David Ward, founder of The Nurturing Company elaborated: "We are extremely excited about being a part of Green World Asia with both Bambooloo and CanO Water. It is a great pivotal moment for the region with sustainability and the environment being given the needed consideration across the spectrum, especially with the sustainability-driven policy and budget announcements made by the Singapore government recently. Green World Asia will be a great showcase for us to Singapore business, the region and the rest of the world."

Strong Partner Networks

Green World Asia has already garnered positive attention in the sustainability landscape with multiple trade and media partners confirmed including: ASP, Circular Economy Asia, Circular Economy Club, Co-Creation Lab, Ecobahn, Eco-Business, Eco Film Festival Singapore, Engeco EnRupt, Green Is The New Black, Green In Future, Ocean Purpose Project, Orca Nation, Seven Clean Seas, The Incubation Network and Zero Waste SG.

Green World Asia is also a proud partner for The Liveability Challenge presented by Temasek Foundation, Eco-Business and Closed Loop Partners, and The Plastics Data Challenge by The Incubation Project.

Visitor registration will be open in July. Interested individuals can register for updates via the show website now.

Green World Asia 2020 will be held on 18 and 19 November at Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Centre in Singapore.
