Abstract: The present disclosure relates to certain (2S)—N-[(1S)-1-cyano-2-phenylethyl]-1,4-oxazepane-2-carboxamide compounds (including pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof), that inhibit dipeptidyl peptidase 1 (DPP1) activity, to their utility in treating and/or preventing clinical conditions including respiratory diseases, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), to their use in therapy, to pharmaceutical compositions containing them and to processes for preparing such compounds.

Abstract: In one example embodiment, a server parses a text-based communication for a particular text-based character. The server identifies, in the text-based communication, the particular text-based character and a sequence of text-based characters associated with the particular text-based character. Based on a mapping of the sequence of text-based characters to a particular meeting type, the server determines that the sequence of text-based characters corresponds to the particular meeting type. The server generates a meeting template of the particular meeting type.

Abstract: In one example embodiment, a scheduling server creates a meeting invitation template that identifies multiple options for a parameter of a meeting. The scheduling server determines that a triggering condition for the meeting invitation template has occurred and, in response to the triggering condition occurring, sends, to a client device, a scheduling page that identifies the multiple options for the parameter of the meeting. The scheduling server receives, from the client device, a selection of one of the multiple options for the parameter of the meeting, and redirects the client device to a meeting status page that provides a link to the meeting.

Abstract: Various spinal implants and methods for stabilizing the spine are provided. In one exemplary embodiment, a spinal implant is provided having an expandable container with an interior volume that is selectively expandable between a compressed condition and an expanded condition. The expandable container is coupled to a superior endplate member having a bone-contacting surface and an engagement surface effective to mate with a superior surface of the expandable container, and an inferior endplate member having a bone-contacting surface and an engagement surface effective to mate with an inferior surface of the expandable container. In addition, at least one inlet port is formed in the expandable container and is effective to communicate a fluid to at least one cavity disposed within the interior volume of the expandable container.

Abstract: An easily interchangeable cover to be used with objects such as rocks, boulders, or other items. The cover allows for airflow between the cover and the object to provide a uniform shape of the cover regardless of the object's deformities and contours. The cover also has a securing means which helps to secure the cover to the object to prevent it from blowing or otherwise being removed from the object.
