Abstract: Thioesters, thiocarbamates, thiocarbazates, semithiocarbazates, peptides, aza-amino acid conjugates, and azapeptides; and a chemoselective and site-specific functionalization protocol of protected thiocarbazates and semithiocarbazates are described. The protocol features the use of Mitsunobu reaction to alkylate specifically the nitrogen atom close to the acylthiol moiety with alcohols to produce protected mono-substituted thiocarbazates that can be stored for months, activated under mild conditions at low temperature using halonium reagents and integrated orthogonally to make substituted semicarbazides that can be used, e.g., as synthons in synthesis of aza-amino acid conjugates, azapeptides and other peptidomimetics.

Abstract: Systems and methods of mitigating one or more bodily effects of a shock condition experienced by an animal (including a human, e.g., a patient) are described. One exemplary method includes providing a device for applying non-invasive neurostimulation to the animal's trigeminal nerve. The method also includes applying the non-invasive neurostimulation to the animal's trigeminal nerve, thereby increasing oxygen flow to the animal's brain and/or reducing brain inflammation.

Abstract: Disclosed are apparatuses and methods for reducing or limiting blood loss and reducing bleed time in a subject by combined vagus and trigeminal stimulation. The apparatuses and methods may activate (e.g., electrically) one or more branches of the trigeminal nerve and may concurrently (at overlapping or near-overlapping time) independently activate the vagus nerve. This activation may be invasive or non-invasive.

Abstract: Embodiments of systems and methods of the present disclosure include a database layer queries patient-related raw data from data tables of distinct data collection services, normalizes the patient-related raw data to produce common format normalized patient-related data, and stores the common format normalized patient-related data. An algorithmic processing layer, in real-time, analyzes the common format normalized patient-related data based on patient-related data metrics, a healthcare facility-related data metrics, or both, to determine patient-related data points, where each patient-related data point is associated with a respective threshold condition and a respective ranking score, ranks the patient-related data points based on the threshold condition and the ranking score to determine a priority, and generates actionable medical directives related to patients, where the actionable medical directives cause real-time operational changes in the way that the healthcare facility services the patients.
