Publication number: 20210318208Abstract: Analysis of a breath sample is a noninvasive point-of-care tool with ever increasing screening and clinical applicability. Herein we describe a method to analyze the content of low-level, trace volatile organic compounds from alveolar breath captured as a breath sample from a patient suspected of having a disease related to coronavirus infection. The breath sample is then analyzed using a gas phase analysis methodology, such as gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (“GCMS”), to generate an analysis result, such as a GCMS spectrum. A computer system is then used to develop a fingerprint pattern from the analysis result. The fingerprint pattern is then used to determine a patient status for the patient. The fingerprint pattern is typically a grouping of 75 to 450 compounds of known concentration which are indicative of a particular disease related to coronavirus.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 9, 2020Publication date: October 14, 2021Applicant: Hygieia Sciences LLCInventors: Charlene Warres Bayer, William Hiller

Publication number: 20210320920Abstract: Systems and methods for efficiently and securely requesting and receiving, from a remote service, data for multiple accounts associated with the same device or application. In one example, a client device is configured to request application data for all accounts associated with the device or application installation using a single remote procedure call, rather than requiring separate calls for each account, and to do so by providing a single identifier rather than including identifiers specific to each associated account. The remote service is further configured to return the requested information in a manner that obfuscates the account identifiers and thus limits their potential use if the communication is intercepted, such that the application data can be efficiently transmitted together even where security or other concerns would otherwise dictate that separate transmissions should be made for each account.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 25, 2021Publication date: October 14, 2021Applicant: Google LLCInventors: Elliot Jaffe, Antonio Trapanese, Cong Chen
