Howard J. Federoff has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11808774
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of determining if a subject has an increased risk of suffering from memory impairment. The methods comprise analyzing at least one plasma sample from the subject to determine a value of the subject's metabolite profile and comparing the value of the subject's metabolite profile with the value of a normal metabolite profile. A change in the value of the subject's metabolite profile, over normal values is indicative that the subject has an increased risk of suffering from memory impairment compared to a normal individual.

  • Publication number: 20210298601
    Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to biosensors and other elements combined in real-time for health applications that acquire health data of an individual from one or more data streams by a first element and integrate these data through a second element that is configured to predict and/or recognize an interruptive health event and then via one or more successive elements alert one or more providers of a possible interruptive health event, enable the providers to propose one or more effective interventions, communicate directly with the individual and providers and/or caregivers, and/or provide confirmation in the event that effective interventions were made. Embodiments also relate to predicting and recognizing brain attack in real-time by acquiring and integrating health data from one or more data streams, interfacing with one or more providers so that they can propose and/or effect one or more effective interventions, and communicating with an affected individual, providers, and/or caregivers.

  • Publication number: 20210285973
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of determining if a subject has an increased risk of suffering from memory impairment. The methods comprise analyzing at least one plasma sample from the subject to determine a value of the subject's meta-bolite profile and comparing the value of the subject's metabolite profile with the value of a normal metabolite profile. A change in the value of the subject's metabolite profile, over normal values is indicative that the subject has an increased risk of suffering from memory impairment compared to a normal individual.

  • Publication number: 20200363436
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of determining if a subject has an increased risk of suffering from memory impairment. The methods comprise determining the influx of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) into the brain from plasma in a test subject and comparing this measured influx to a normal standard influx. An increase in influx of PUFAs from the plasma into the brain is indicative that the subject has an increased risk of suffering from memory impairment compared to a normal individual.

  • Publication number: 20200239959
    Abstract: Methods of determining if a subject has an increased risk of poor recovery after suffering a stroke and methods of treating a subject recovering from a stroke. The methods comprise analyzing at least one plasma sample taken from the subject to assess a microRNA (miRNA) profile of the subject and comparing the subject's miRNA profile with a normal miRNA profile, to determine if the subject's miRNA profile is altered compared to a normal miRNA profile. An alteration of the subject's miRNA profile is indicative that the subject has an increased risk of poor recovery after suffering a stroke.
