Abstract:
The invention provides a method of treating a subject afflicted with fragile X syndrome (FXS) or a FXS related disorder, comprising periodically administering to the subject a pharmaceutical composition comprising an amount of pridopidine effective to treat the subject.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for treating a human subject afflicted with multiple sclerosis or a single clinical attack consistent with multiple sclerosis with a pharmaceutical composition comprising glatiramer acetate and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, comprising the steps of: (i) determining a genotype corresponding to the nucleotide polymorphisms consisting of: Group 1, of the subject at a location location of one or more single (SNPs) selected from the group.
Abstract:
This invention provides a method of treating a patient afflicted with a neurodegenerative disorder, e.g., Huntington's disease, comprising administering to the patient rasagiline as an add-on therapy to or in combination with pridopidine. This invention also provides a package and a pharmaceutical composition comprising rasagiline and pridopidine for treating a patient afflicted with a neurodegenerative disorder. This invention also provides rasagiline for use as an add-on therapy or in combination with pridopidine in treating a patient afflicted with a neurodegenerative disorder. This invention further provides use of rasagiline and pridopidine in the preparation of a combination for treating a patient afflicted with a neurodegenerative disorder.
Abstract:
A disposable absorbent article having laterally opposing interiorly attached barrier cuff strips and at least one deploy able belt strip. Each barrier cuff strip is attached to an interior surface of an absorbent assembly and has a longitudinally extending elastic gathering member attached adjacent to its proximal edge. The belt strip has a fixed end portion and opposing first and second edges connecting the fixed end portion and an opposing free end portion. The belt strip is attached in the fixed end portion and is deployed by being folded laterally outward such that the first edge extends laterally outward from one end point of a diagonal fold line and the second edge extends laterally outward from the opposing end point of the diagonal fold line. The belt strip may be tied to another belt strip or may be fastened to the waist region of the article or to another belt strip.

Abstract:
A disposable absorbent article having laterally opposing interiorly attached side flaps and at least one deployable belt strip. Each side flap is formed by folding a portion of the absorbent assembly laterally inward and has a longitudinally extending elastic gathering member attached adjacent to its proximal edge. The belt strip has a fixed end portion and opposing first and second edges connecting the fixed end portion and an opposing free end portion. The belt strip is attached in the fixed end portion and is deployed by being folded laterally outward such that the first edge extends laterally outward from one end point of a diagonal fold line and the second edge extends laterally outward from the opposing end point of the diagonal fold line. The belt strip may be tied to another belt strip or may be fastened to the waist region of the article or to another belt strip.
Abstract:
A disposable absorbent article having laterally opposing interiorly attached side flaps and at least one deployable belt strip. Each of the side flaps has a longitudinally extending elastic gathering member attached adjacent to its proximal edge. The belt strip has a fixed end portion disposed in one of the waist regions and opposing first and second edges connecting the fixed end portion and an opposing free end portion. The belt strip is attached in the fixed end portion and is deployed by being folded laterally outward such that the first edge extends laterally outward from one end point of a diagonal fold line and the second edge extends laterally outward from the opposing end point of the diagonal fold line. The belt strip may be tied to another belt strip or may be fastened to the waist region of the article or to another belt strip.
Abstract:
The disclosure provides methods and compositions for treating a vascular, autoimmune, and/or inflammatory disease, or a condition associated therewith, with a dose of an inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) inhibitor effective to treat the vascular, autoimmune and/or inflammatory disease, or associated condition but that does not produce immunosuppression sufficient to reduce the risk of allograft rejection. These lower doses of the immunosuppressant avoid the adverse consequences of severe immunosuppression while providing effective treatment of the vascular, autoimmune and/or inflammatory disease.
Abstract:
Mutations in Wnt receptor genes, such as FZD4, associated with hereditary human visual disorders, such as familial exudative vitreoretinopathy ("FEVR"), are disclosed along with methods of use of Wnt and/or Wnt receptor genes and proteins, including in assays for therapeutic agents useful in treating such diseases and/or ameliorating their effects as well as methods of diagnosing diseases and disorders caused by mutations in these genes.
