First Patient Enrolled in New Study Assessing early prediction of flares in Atopic Dermatitis by Castle Biosciences in Collaboration with SciBase

Published

on

STOCKHOLM, June 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — SciBase Holding AB (“SciBase”) (STO: SCIB), a leading developer of AI-powered skin health solutions, today announced that the first patient has been enrolled in a new study to assess flare prediction in Atopic Dermatitis.

The primary objective of the multicenter prospective clinical study is to assess the prediction of flares in atopic dermatitis (AD). This milestone marks a significant step forward in understanding and managing this chronic, inflammatory skin condition, which affects millions of people worldwide.

The study, titled DETECT-AD, the first study through the collaboration with Castle Biosciences, will investigate SciBase method of Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) ability to predict the onset of flares in patients with atopic dermatitis. By identifying early signs, the research aims to enable proactive interventions, improve patient quality of life, and reduce the burden of unpredictable flare-ups.

Atopic dermatitis is characterized by periods of remission and flare-ups, which can significantly impact patients’ daily lives. Current treatment approaches are often reactive, addressing symptoms only after they appear. This study seeks to shift the paradigm toward proactive, personalized care, empowering patients and healthcare providers with actionable insights.

“The enrollment of the first patient is an exciting milestone in our mission to transform the management of atopic dermatitis. By predicting flares before they occur, we hope to offer patients greater control over their condition and improve their overall well-being,” said Pia Renaudin, CEO of SciBase.

APS Expands UPI High Output Alternator Line for Growing Power Needs in Luxury Motorcoaches

Published

on

By

Lighter Weight, Smaller Dimensions Allow for Multiple Alternator Configurations

DAVENPORT, Iowa, Aug. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Modern luxury motor coaches have evolved into rolling homes and offices. Onboard amenities like induction cooktops, refrigerators, entertainment systems, satellite internet, multiple TVs, office equipment, lighting and security systems create an upscale environment. Yet, many standard factory alternators are designed primarily to support the chassis and basic vehicle accessories, not the substantial auxiliary loads created by these comforts of home.

UPI alternators charge faster, support heavy loads, cut generator use, and improve off-grid coach reliability.

For a luxury premium Class A motor coach, adding a high-output alternator like American Power Systems, Inc.’s new heavy-duty Ultra Performance at Idle (UPI) alternator series is not simply a charging upgrade. It becomes a mobile power generation system that enables faster battery charging, supports large electrical loads, reduces generator use, enhances off-grid capability, and improves overall coach reliability.

“This new series is an expansion of our product capabilities,” explained APS President & CEO Amy Lank. “It gives our customers a choice in how to supply maximum power depending on their vehicle needs. They’ve asked for more power, and we’ve heard them loud and clear.”

New J180 and Pad Mount UPI Options Expand Installation Flexibility

Now expanded to include J180 and pad heavy-duty mounting styles, APS’ UPI high-output alternator series provides more output across the board at both lower and upper RPM. In addition, the increased power output at lower RPM means faster charging capability at lower speeds, including at idle. Plus, the lighter weight and smaller dimensions of the new UPI series also allow for multiple alternators in many configurations.

How UPI High-Output Alternators Support Modern Motorcoach Power Demands

Support for large house battery banks: APS’ UPI high-output alternator options are especially valuable for luxury motorcoaches because they help support the large house battery banks, inverter/chargers and energy management systems that power today’s residential-style coach amenities. By delivering substantially more charging current than many standard factory alternators, the system helps batteries recover faster while driving, giving owners more usable battery capacity and reducing the time needed to recharge after overnight use or extended off-grid operation.

Powering high electrical loads while driving: The expanded UPI line also helps power high electrical loads while the vehicle is in motion. Luxury coaches commonly rely on refrigerators, air conditioning, entertainment systems, satellite internet, office equipment, induction cooking, lighting, security systems and other onboard electronics that can operate simultaneously. A high-output alternator helps maintain stable voltage and reliable system performance when these loads exceed the capacity of a standard alternator.

Reduced generator runtime: For motorcoach owners who want to reduce generator runtime, the UPI alternator can provide significant charging power to the house batteries while the coach is underway. This can extend inverter operation, reduce generator hours, lower fuel consumption and decrease maintenance needs, contributing to a quieter and more efficient travel experience.

Better performance with lithium upgrades & off-grid capability: The new J180 and pad mount UPI options are also well suited for lithium battery upgrades, which can accept charge faster than traditional battery technologies. In these applications, a properly engineered high-output alternator system can help eliminate charging bottlenecks, improve battery recovery and increase energy independence during long-distance travel, extended road use and time spent away from shore power.

Availability and Configuration Options

All APS UPI high output alternators are available in 12-, 24-, and 48-volt options, ranging from 165 to 390 amps.
