| 20100004304 | METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR THE TREATMENT OF MALIGNANT MELANOMA, BREAST, PROSTATE, COLON, PAPILLARY THYROID AND PANCREATIC CANCER - It is now recognized that chronic inflammation is an important risk factor for the development of cancer. The proinflammatory cytokine IL-6 is implicated in cancer because it is important for the activation of STAT, a key regulator of cancer growth, survival, metastasis, immune evasion and angiogenesis. Increased IL-6 and Stat-3 exists in vitro in pancreatic cancer, malignant melanoma, papillary thyroid cancer, breast cancer, colon cancer, and prostate cancer cells with high basal expression of Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) and Wnt5a. IL6/STAT3 activation, mediated by overexpressed TLR3 signaling, appears important in the tumor growth process, it may increase Wnt5a signaling, and be associated with increased cellular growth and migration. Using a novel inhibitor of pathologic TLR3 signaling (5-phenylmethimazole [C10]) we have demonstrated decreases in these markers plus suppression of cell growth and migration in human pancreatic cancer, malignant melanoma, papillary thyroid cancer, breast cancer, colon cancer, and prostate cancer cells. | 01-07-2010 |

| 20110301965 | DYNAMICALLY PREDICTING PATIENT INFLUX INTO AN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT - Current patients in an emergency department of a hospital are described according to their quantity, their triage classification levels, and their wait times to calculate a current patient backlog. A sum of weight-adjusted triage classification levels of all of the current patients is calculated. Current patient arrival rates in the emergency department are tracked to calculate a current change in patient arrival rates, which are compared with historical changes in patient arrival rates. A size of an imminent influx of arriving patients into the emergency department is then predicted based on the current patient backlog, the sum of weight-adjusted triage classification levels of patients currently in the emergency department, and the current change in patient arrival rates. | 12-08-2011 |
| 20110307264 | DYNAMICALLY ADJUSTING TRIAGE CLASSIFICATION LEVELS - An initial triage level classification for a latest patient to arrive at an emergency department (ED) is received. Availability levels of resources needed to treat the latest patient are electronically collected, along with triage level classifications for all other patients currently in the ED. The initial triage level classification of the latest patient is adjusted upward or downward based on the availability levels of resources needed to treat the latest patient and based on the triage level classifications for the patients in the ED. The triage level classifications for all patients currently in the ED are summed up. If a sum of all triage level classifications exceeds a first predetermined threshold, other resources are reallocated in order to provide the resources needed to treat the latest patient to arrive at the ED. If the sum of all triage level classifications exceeds a second predetermined threshold, then a disaster plan is implemented. | 12-15-2011 |
| 20120109683 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR OUTCOME BASED REFERRAL USING HEALTHCARE DATA OF PATIENT AND PHYSICIAN POPULATIONS - A recommendation system and method includes extracting patient features for a current patient to generate representation of the current patient.

Outcome measures associated with physicians are compared related to a current query. A future outcome for patient, physician pairs are predicted for the current patient based upon at least one predictive model constructed from the features and outcome measures to output. | 05-03-2012 |
