Abstract: A system for surgical planning and assessment of spinal deformity correction is provided that has a spinal imaging system and a control unit. The spinal imaging system is configured to collect at least one digitized position of one or more vertebral bodies of a subject. The control unit is configured to receive the at least one digitized position, and calculate, based on the at least one digitized position, an optimized posture for the subject. The control unit is configured to receive one or more simulated spinal correction inputs, and based on the inputs and optimized posture, predict an optimal simulated postoperative surgical correction.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a novel process for preparing Compound A free base, 5-((2,4-diaminopyrimidin-5-yl)oxy)-4-iso-propyl-2-methoxybenzenesulfonamide, and a citrate salt of Compound A with simplified chemistry and a high overall yield: Compound A. In one embodiment, the overall yield from the starting material 2-isopropylphenol to Compound A citrate salt is greater than 50%. In another embodiment, the overall yield is greater than 60%. Also disclosed herein are novel salts and solvates of Compound A.

Abstract: The present invention relates to processes for the preparation of N-protected (2S,5R)-6-hydroxy-7-oxo-N-piperidin-4-yl-1,6-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-2-carboxamide intermediates. Such compounds have application in the preparation of beta-lactamase inhibitors such as 7-oxo-1,6-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-2-carboxamides and esters, in particular, the beta lactamase inhibitor, (2S,5R)-7-oxo-N-piperidin-4-yl-6-(sulfoxy)-1,6-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-2-carboxamide. The present invention also encompasses intermediates useful in the disclosed processes and methods for their preparation.
