Abstract: The invention features compounds which modulate FGF activity, e.g., by enhancing the binding between FGF-2 and its receptors, e.g., FGF-R1. Also featured is a pharmaceutical composition containing one or more of the compounds, a method of treating an injury or a disease e.g., stroke, congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, and viral infection, and a method of increasing spermatogenesis using the pharmaceutical composition.

Abstract: A traction battery assembly according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a tray, at least one battery module, a lid secured to the tray to provide an enclosure having an interior that houses the at least one battery module, the lid having a lid aperture, and a reinforcement member is secured directly to the lid. The reinforcement member has a reinforcement member aperture. A fastener extends through the lid aperture and the reinforcement member aperture. The fastener is secured to a structure within the interior. The reinforcement member is secured directly to the lid separately from the fastener.

Abstract: Bras for high impact, high support activities are provided. A bra comprises a band that wraps around a torso. The band includes first and second cup regions, and a channel that runs below the collective cup regions. A gore is formed above the channel and between the respective cup regions, adjoining the respective cup regions. A molded cradle is fitted into the channel. For each cup region, a tessellated encapsulating bra cup is fitted therein. Each tessellated encapsulating bra cup includes a plurality of tiles. Respective tiles in the plurality of tiles that are further away from the cradle are larger in size than respective tiles in the plurality of tiles that are closer to the cradle. Each tessellated encapsulating bra cup has a generally concave first inner face and a generally convex first outer face. The tessellated encapsulating bra cups collectively contribute cantilevered support to the bra.

Abstract: Articles of clothing are provided. An article of clothing includes a band. The band includes a back portion and a front portion. The front portion is seamlessly connected to the back portion. Moreover, the front portion includes a respective cup region that is formed with an extensibility. The extensibility varies from a base of the respective cup region to a top of the respective cup region.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a hearing system comprising a first hearing device and a second hearing device configured to be worn at a respective ear of a user, each hearing device comprising a displacement sensor configured to provide respective displacement data indicative of a rotational displacement and/or a translational displacement of the hearing device, and a processing unit communicatively coupled to the displacement sensors. The disclosure further relates to a corresponding method of operating a hearing system, and a computer-readable medium storing instructions to perform the method.

Abstract: Pullover bras for high support activities are provided. A bra includes a band that wraps around the torso. The band includes first and second cup regions as well as a gore adjoining the cup regions. An underband runs below the gore and the cup regions. Straps adjoin a respective cup region and a respective portion of the band. A neckline runs above the cup regions and between a first portion of each strap. The gore and underarm portions of the band are formed from a first pattern of fabric. The back of the bra, the straps, and the neckline is formed from a second pattern of fabric. The underband is formed from a third pattern of fabric.

Abstract: A method is described for tracking happy moments of a user wearing a hearing device comprising at least one microphone and at least one classifier configured to detect specific states of the user or of the user's environment based on a sensor signal indicative of the user's mood.
