Abstract: The present invention is in the field of prophylaxis of allergies, and relates specifically to primary prevention of atopic diseases by administering probiotic bacteria, beneficial microbes of the healthy gut flora, pre- and postnatally to children at high risk of atopic diseases.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a novel method for preventing or treating respiratory infections and acute otitis media in infants. The method comprises the administration of a therapeutically effective amount of a Bifidobacteria strain and an adherence-promoting probiotic, such as LGG, to the infant.

Abstract: The use of probiotic bacteria capable of promoting the development of an early bifidogenic intestinal microbiota in the manufacture of a medicament or therapeutic nutritional composition for reducing the risk of development of overweight or obesity of an infant later in life.

Abstract: A handset having a housing having a display and first keypad. The first keypad is removably coupled to the housing. Circuitry is provided within the housing. The circuitry is adapted to interface with the display and the first keypad. A second keypad is provided. The second keypad is exchangeable with the first keypad. The second keypad is adapted to replace the first keypad on the housing when the first keypad is removed from the housing.

Abstract: A keyboard having a plurality of first keys on one side and second keys on the other, separated by a circuit board and a plurality of domes. The circuit board can be activated for entering information in an electronic device by pressing one or more keys on either side via the domes. The keyboard can be fixedly mounted on the cover of the electronic device such that the first keys can be used when the cover is closed and the second keys can be used when the cover is open. The keyboard can also be removably mounted so as to allow a user to change the keyboard side to be used. Alternatively, one side of the keyboard has a touch pad instead of keys.

Abstract: Methods and compositions for promoting tolerogenic immune responses or treating immune responses to food antigens comprise Lactobacillus GG. Oral administration of Lactobacillus GG to patients such as human infants may promote a tolerogenic immune response to antigens in cow's milk.

Abstract: The present invention is in the field of prophylaxis of allergies, and relates specifically to primary prevention of atopic diseases by administering probiotic bacteria, beneficial microbes of the healthy gut flora, pre- and postnatally to children at high risk of atopic diseases. In an embodiment, probiotic bacteria are administered to a pregnant woman at least two weeks before infant delivery and after delivery, probiotic bacteria are administered to the newborn infant for at least two months. The amount of probiotic bacteria administered is about 1×108 to about 1×1010 colony forming units of the probiotic bacteria.

Abstract: Mechanical design considerations for the antenna and speaker functionalities in a mobile communication device are combined in the construction to reduce the physical size of the device. The antenna and speaker are carried in a common chamber which enhances bass-tone production of the speaker while maintaining antenna functional design consideration.

Abstract: A key structure used in the user interface of an electrical device comprises a plate-like member (301) which comprises electrical couplings for transforming keystrokes into electrical signals, and an electrically conducting dome-like member (303) on the plate-like member. This dome-like member is arranged to have such suitable elastic characteristics that it is at least partly pressed against the plate-like member when a pressing force substantially perpendicular towards the plate-like member acts on the dome-like member, and to return to the dome-like position when the pressing force is removed. The key structure further comprises a button member (304) made of an electrically isolating material and being located on the dome-like member. The key structure is characterised in that the elastic deformation of the button member due to the pressing force is substantially similar to that of the dome-like member.
