  • Publication number: 20250256096
    Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for delivering therapeutic agents for nerve stimulation are used to administer a therapeutic agent to a patient, modulate one or more nerves of the patient, and optionally monitor patients' physiological parameters. The monitoring can inform the nerve modulation and/or administration of the therapeutic agent. Systems, apparatus, and methods deliver therapeutic agents for nerve stimulation. Devices administer therapeutic agents, modulate patients' nerve(s), and observe and track patient physiological parameters. Modulation can be performed during and/or after administration of a therapeutic to the patient. Targeted compounds activate peripheral nerves including via agonists of chemoreceptors or somatosensory receptors resulting in signaling in the cervical vagus nerve.

  • Publication number: 20250254184
    Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for determining that a first electronic communication, received in a first private repository of a user, has been identified (e.g., flagged) as including a threat, and determining a probability that the first electronic communication includes the threat. In response to determining that the probability exceeds a threshold probability, the system monitors monitoring for a second electronic communication, received in a second private repository, that includes contents that match the contents of the first electronic communication.

  • Publication number: 20250254204
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and machine-readable media are provided to facilitate adaptive security and cooperative multi-system operations in conformance with dynamic protocols. An implementation of the protocol that includes parameter constraints mapped to the defined event may be generated, defining an operation flow in response to detection of a defined event at a remote system and transforming the protocol into an executable process that applies to at least one remote system. References to metadata specifications may be transmitted that include specifications of interface elements and cause interface configuring in accordance with the specifications. Upon determination that responses satisfy the parameter constraints, access to a resource may be controlled in accordance with the protocol, or, upon determination that the responses fail to satisfy the parameter constraints, an alert may be transmitted that is indicative of at least one of the references and/or additional references to second metadata specifications.

  • Publication number: 20250254221
    Abstract: A system automatically maintains a plurality of client connections associated with a plurality of clients, the plurality of client connections including active and idle connections. A first server receives a request from a client of the plurality of clients to access a second server of a plurality of second servers communicatively coupled to the first server, the plurality of second servers having varying communication protocols. The first server then identifies a first communication protocol associated with the second server and activating a link between the first server and the second server using the first communication protocol.

  • Publication number: 20250250689
    Abstract: Disclosed is a combined generator technology for two purposes: 1) electrodialysis “salt splitting” (ESS) to convert sodium chloride salt into an acid (hydrochloric or sulfuric) and a caustic (sodium hydroxide) to be generated for use as regeneration solutions for weak acid cation, weak base anion, and strong base anion resin systems and 2) electro-generation for converting sodium chloride salt into an aqueous solution of sodium hypochlorite both with the intention of treating make up water and/or recirculating in a cooling tower, fluid cooler, or any evaporative cooling device; other salts will apply to the process in addition to sodium chloride (example sodium sulfate).

  • Patent number: 12376534
    Abstract: A stump grinder has a grinding arm that durably mounts a rotatable grinding wheel by securing the drive shaft of a motor to the grinding wheel such that a pair of bearings within the motor support one side of the grinding wheel and by supporting the other side of the grinding wheel with a stub shaft received within a third bearing. The grinding arm is laterally offset on the frame of the stump grinder to have a swing angle that is not symmetrical relative to the width of the frame, but with the swing angle starting at one side of the frame and then traversing across substantially the entire width of the frame to improve the ability of the operator to see the grinding wheel. A single joystick is movable in orthogonal directions corresponding to desired up and down and side-to-side pivoting motions of the grinding arm. The joystick includes a depressible trigger for starting and stopping the operation of the grinding wheel.

  • Patent number: 12379346
    Abstract: A method of target molecule detection includes simultaneously obtaining a first signal from a first working electrode and a second signal from a second working electrode, wherein the first signal is responsive to interaction of the first recognition element with the target molecule in a sample, and the second signal is indicative of background noise from the sample. The method further includes generating a modified signal that is proportional to an instantaneous difference between the first and second signals, wherein the modified signal indicates an amount of the target molecule present in the sample.

  • Publication number: 20250247423
    Abstract: In some implementations, a method performed by data processing apparatuses includes serving a web page comprising an embedded markup image and a detection script. The detection script is configured to cause a client device to, in response to loading the embedded markup image, determine a current environment location indicative of a source of the web page, determine whether the current environment location matches a domain associated with a subject system, generate an obfuscated data payload based on the current environment location, and send a request to a predetermined endpoint in response to determining that the current environment location does not match the domain associated with the subject system. The request includes the obfuscated data payload.
