Abstract: The invention relates to methods of treating a patient suffering from an IL-33-mediated disorder, such as asthma, comprising administering to the patient an IL-33 axis binding antagonist based on the genotype of the IL1RL1 gene. The invention further relates to methods of determining whether a patient is at increased risk of an IL-33-mediated disorder, as well as methods of determining whether a patient suffering from such a disorder is likely to respond to a treatment comprising an IL-33 axis binding antagonist, based on the genotype of the IL1RL1 gene.

Abstract: A device for the storage and display of hair accessories. The device utilizes pairs of filled long fabric tubes twisted about each other and tied at each twist point to retain the twisted conformation. The pairs of twisted tubes are clamped in a frame that is fitted with a hook so the device can be hung in a closet or on a wall or door. Barrettes and hair clamps can be fastened about the tubes while scarfs, scrunchies and crushable hats can be placed between the tubes in the sections delineated by the ties. A transparent pouch suspended from the hook can hold smaller items such as hair pins and rubber bands and enables the user to view the contents thereof.
