Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions and methods for preventing or treating canine pruritic disease, optionally wherein the canine pruritic disease is canine atopic dermatitis (AD) in general, and a synthetic canine interferon (IFN)-alpha (?) for use in said treatment or prophylaxis in particular, as well as a composition and method comprising the same and a method of production of the synthetic canine interferon-alpha.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions and methods for preventing or treating pruritus, prurigo, neutrophilic dermatoses and skin cancer. The invention extends to compositions for preventing or treating conditions where an exaggerated Th2 response plays a detrimental role. The invention further extends to compositions and the use of the compositions of the invention for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of pruritus, prurigo, neutrophilic dermatoses and skin cancer for Human and Veterinary therapies.

Abstract: There is provided a method and compositions for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of psoriasis or atopic dermatitis, the method comprising the step of administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of an interferon alpha subtype, wherein the interferon 3 alpha subtype is IFN-?14, HYBRID 1 or a combination of IFN-?14 and HYBRID 1.

Abstract: A device may be configured to generate a display of a content in a view region. The view region has a given boundary, and the content is provided for display at a first size. The device may be configured to receive a size-adjusting input for adjusting a size of the content. The device may be configured to cause the size of the content to change from the first size to a second size. The device may be configured to receive an indication of ending the size-adjusting operation, and in response to receiving the indication, cause the size of the content to change to a third size that is between the first size and the second size. In addition, or alternative, to receiving the size-adjusting input, the device may also receive a position-adjusting input and, in response, adjust the position and/or size of the content within the given boundary.

Abstract: An assessment device is provided which allows for measurement of a position of interest, e.g., a body part, while a subject is in a functional position, such as may be required for the demands of an activity of interest without also requiring a lengthy setup time, tethered connection to other equipment external to the subject or tedious manual measurements. Moreover, an indicator such as an alarm or other output may be provided for receiving immediate, real time feedback, such as when a functional activity falls outside a tolerance or threshold.
