Abstract: Systems, techniques and methods for estimating the metabolic state or flux, e.g., the body energy state (“BES”) of a patient, are disclosed. The BES provides deep insight into the nutritional needs of the patient, thus allowing for a sort of exquisite glycemic control with regard to the patient. The invention discloses systems and methods for estimating fractional gluconeogenesis, which is the % of glucose production that comes from gluconeogenesis (“GNG”), as opposed to glycogenolysis (“GLY”), the other form of glucose production. Nutritional formulations, materials, cocktails and methods for feeding patients by parenteral and other means are disclosed. The amount, type and rate of such nutritional feeding are typically based upon the above estimating. The invention discloses formulations that contain labels, such as deuterium, for medical diagnostics, such as for estimating BES and fractional gluconeogenesis.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling a computerized device's display to provide a compact and informative graphical user interface providing historical data-based forecasting for clinical trial-related activities. The graphical user interface performs guided prompting for development of clinical trial plans on a per-study basis, historical data-based budgeting on a per-country basis, and budget negotiation on a per-supplier basis, to effectively form clinical trial agreements. Further, the system provides a high degree of flexibility and feedback to the user during these activities, including via graphical user interfaces providing mechanisms for accessing historical payment data and/or fair market value data derived therefrom, to allow for comparison and/or selection of countries/suppliers to be used in clinical trials and/or to negotiate clinical trial budgets based on actual historical payment data.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling a computerized device's display to provide a graphical user interface that renders compact and informative graphical user interface images while also providing for flexible and accurate administration of clinical trial-related activities, namely, flexible allocation of payments in accordance with an applicable clinical trial agreement. Further, the system provides a graphical user interface providing tracking and feedback to the user during the payment allocation process to avoid allocation errors. More particularly, the graphical user interface provides guided prompting for allocation to approved/relevant persons, in accordance with clinical trial agreements, while providing a high degree of flexibility for specifying an allocations, and while displaying various visual elements providing feedback to ensure that allocations are made with internal consistency, to reduce and/or avoid human or other errors.

Abstract: Systems, techniques and methods for estimating the metabolic state or flux, e.g., the body energy state (“BES”) of a patient, are disclosed. The BES provides a deep insight into the nutritional needs of the patient, thus allowing for a sort of exquisite glycemic control with regard to the patient. The invention discloses systems and methods for estimating fractional gluconeogenesis. The invention also discloses systems and methods for estimating and targeting patient blood lactate concentration, both as a target itself and as an intermediate step to estimating and targeting patient fractional gluconeogenesis glucose production. Nutritional support methods and formulations are also disclosed. The invention is suitable for any sort of patient, including those who are injured, such as with traumatic brain injury, ill, or have other conditions that stress the metabolic system.

Abstract: A computer-implemented evaluation method for evaluating an employee includes providing an evaluation dashboard application to participants capable of generating a collective progress report indicating a proportion of group members who have transmitted external-evaluation information at a time the collective progress report is generated, and further capable of generating a plurality of individual progress reports respectively indicating a completeness of external-evaluation information received from each of the plurality of group members at a time the plurality of individual progress reports are generated. The collective progress report and the plurality of individual progress reports are accessible by each participant executing the evaluation dashboard application on a remote computer without communicating with another participant. A participant in the evaluation process can anonymously check on the progress of other participants in the evaluation process in real time.
