Caspio releases chart, dashboard apps

Caspio has made available new chart applications to create visual web-based charts and dashboards for any database and assist users' understanding of large data sets.

Caspio's chart apps combine data search, customizable reporting and publishing capabilities already built into the Mountain View, Calif.-based company’s platform.

Users can embed multiple charts on the same web page to create dashboards with features such as ad hoc search, filtering controls, record drill-down and data download. The charts are compatible with any website, blog, content management system or mobile site and do not utilize Adobe Flash, Caspio added.

Chart application features also include:
  • Various chart types including line, bar, pie, spline, column and step;
  • Data aggregation support for sum, average, counts and min/max; and
  • Customizable chart labels and grouping.

“Now more than ever, we must recognize that our country’s leadership in groundbreaking medical research spurs scientific innovation, improves public health and creates new innovations that save and improve lives nationwide,” Joseph C. Wu, MD, PhD, explained in a statement. 

The technology used to diagnose, treat and manage cardiovascular disease is always evolving, keeping FDA officials quite busy. But have the agency's standards been slipping in recent years? A cardiologist with Cedars-Sinai Medical Center explored that very question.

No devices need to be returned at this time. However, the FDA warned, using these heart pumps without reviewing the updated instructions could result in "serious injury or death.”
