US Classification:

66176

Abstract:

A knitted fabric bra formed of a length of circular knit material flattened into a double ply fabric with ends secured together to form a torso encircling main body portion having rounded top and bottom edges. A pair of lengths of circular knit material flattened into double ply fabrics have ends secured to the main body portion to form shoulder straps having rounded side edges. The main body portion has a pair of enlarged, relatively loosely knit, relatively highly resiliently stretchable breast pockets. Under-sections are formed below the breast pockets. A front section extends between the breast pockets. Side sections extend from the breast pockets and are connected by a back section. The yarn selection and stitch size are varied in knitting of the fabric to provide desired fabric characteristics.

Appl. No.:

11/675713

Inventors:

Jadideah Duckman - Atlanta GA, US
Billie June Willis - Asheboro NC, US
Brian Adams - Asheboro NC, US

International Classification:

A41B 11/00

US Classification:

2239

Abstract:

A hosiery garment including a top support portion that has a waist panel, buttock panels, a tummy panel and leg panels. The waist panel has a relatively tight knit and extends around the wearer's waist. The buttock panels have a relatively loose knit and may include loose-knit defined pockets to conform more to the buttocks of the wearer. The tight knit of the waist panel provides firmness and compression and in combination with the loose fit of the buttock panels facilitates use of a low-rise cut without bunching or riding-up of the undergarment when sitting. The upper edge of the waist panel may also include higher extending hip portions for a more secure fit. A downwardly extending rear portion of the waist panel may have a V-shape to reduce gapping. The undergarment may also include leg portions that have a sheer knit single ply and extend from the leg panels.

Abstract:

Compositions and methods for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis are provided herein. The compositions contain one or more isoflavones, such as genistein and derivatives thereof, in combination with one or more folates, such as a reduced folate and/or folic acid; and/or one or more polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), such as an omega-3 and/or omega-6 fatty acid. The isoflavones, folates and/or essential fatty acid may be administered together or in separate dosage units. The compositions may optionally contain other vitamins, minerals, and ingredients, such as, emollient laxatives. The compositions are useful in the treatment of all forms of osteoporosis, including primary osteoporosis and secondary osteoporosis, and/or inflammatory joint diseases, especially in patients having a folic acid metabolism deficiency. The compositions are particularly useful in the treatment of inflammatory joint diseases, with complications that include bone loss, fracture, and osteoporosis. In addition, the compositions are beneficial for the prevention of osteoporosis in subjects who do not yet have the disease, but who are at risk for getting osteoporosis, such as post-menopausal women, subjects with osteopenia (mid thinning of the bone mass), subjects with an inflammatory joint disease, or people who are over the age of 70.

Abstract:

Compositions and methods for the treatment of premature ejaculation have been developed. It has been discovered that premature ejaculation can be treated by administering a local anesthetic to the glans penis. The local anesthetic may be formulated as an emulsion, lotion, paste, gel, cream, ointment, shea butter, suspension, solution, balm, salve, foam, or in the form of a pump spray to achieve local anesthesia of the dorsal neurons of the penis.
