  • Publication number: 20240156964
    Abstract: The compositions and methods described herein are topically applied to the skin with negligible or no skin irritation and can direct or prevent transport through the skin. The compositions contain neat ionic liquids, optionally in combination with a drug to be delivered. In a preferred embodiment, the compositions increase transdermal transport of the drug to be delivered. In some embodiments, the compositions disrupt bacterial biofilms. This is particularly beneficial in the treatment of antibiotic resistant skin infections. In other embodiments, the compositions direct delivery within the skin. In still other embodiments, the compositions prevent transfer of substances through the stratum corneum. The disclosed compositions and methods can be tuned and modified such that they can be used to treat or prevent a variety of different diseases and disorders.

  • Patent number: 11769210
    Abstract: A DI recovery management system generates a plurality of ranked claimant records and recovery scores. A predictive machine learning model inputs disability income claim data and disability income claimant data into an event history model utilizing discrete-time survival analysis in conjunction with a gradient boosting machine learning model. The claim termination event is one of a plurality of preselected recovery events that indicate that a claimant has achieved return-to-work capacity. Claimant data used in modeling includes diagnosis data representative of workplace disability duration guidelines. The predictive machine learning model is continually trained using updated disability income claims data. The training procedure transforms claimant records extracted from a DI claims database into a longitudinal format that includes multiple person-year records corresponding to each claimant record.

  • Publication number: 20200247866
    Abstract: The invention provides a novel family of biologically active neuropeptides and the nucleic aid molecules coding for same. The peptides are derived for the C-terminus of the teneurin family peptides (Ten M1-4). These novel peptides, referred to as teneurin C-terminal associated peptides (TCAPs) are active in neuronal communication and are implicated in a number of neuropathologies. They are particularly useful in modulating stress responses and anxiety and in the treatment of cancer.

  • Patent number: 10395217
    Abstract: A personnel management system determines an estimated time for return to employability. A server is configured to determine that a user's status has changed from available to unavailable, then the server facilitates a session between the user and an administrator. The server generates a set of inquiries based on user information and the nature of unavailability and evaluates user's responses. The server generates a second set of inquiries based on the responses. The server determines a stage based upon a likelihood of a status change from unavailable to available by evaluating user information and responses. The server generates and transmits a query regarding user's health information and determines a score based on the calculated stage and the health risk factors of the user. The server generates a web page with a set of action items associated with the generated score and modifies user's record based upon the calculated score.
