Abstract: An upright extension for personal walkers for supporting users of personal walkers in an upright position includes a cross-member. The cross-member is removably coupled to a cross-brace of a walker. The cross-member has a first end and a second end orientated opposite each other. A coupler removably couples the cross-member to the cross-brace. A pair of lateral members extends rearwardly from each of a one of the first and second ends. Each of the pair of lateral members has a support attached to a distal end with regard to the cross-member. Each of the supports extends outwardly away from the pair of lateral members. Each of a pair of vertical members extends upwardly from a one of the lateral members adjacent to a one of the first and second ends. Each of the pair of vertical members has a grip and an armrest extending rearwardly.

Abstract: Therapeutically-effective amounts of novel analogs or derivatives of alkyl fatty, acids, such as but not limited to lipoic acid, and pharmaceutical formulations comprising such analogs or derivatives and pharmaceutically-acceptable carriers therefor, are useful for the treatment, prevention, imaging, and/or diagnosis of medical disorders.

Abstract: A support assembly to support a bar (11) of a roof rack assembly for a motor vehicle includes a base (12) to which the bar (11) is attached. The bar (11) includes a longitudinal cavity (46) that provides for the attachment of articles to the bar (11). The support assembly further includes a cover (24) that is captively attached to the base (12) but movable relative thereto between a lock position preventing access to a threaded shaft (18) that is used to secure the support assembly to the vehicle and the cavity (46), and a displaced position providing access to the cavity (46) and threaded shaft (18).
