Methods for treating insomnia are disclosed. The methods are directed to administering a pharmaceutically effective amount of phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) inhibitor to a male individual suffering from insomnia. In addition, due to the PDE5 inhibitor positive effects on addressing erectile dysfunction (ED) in males, the present methods are directed to treating insomnia in patients that also suffer from ED by administering a pharmaceutically effective amount of a PDE5 inhibitor.

Method of treating insomnia

An exercise apparatus and method for isolating an wrist during aerobic exercise on an exercise machine such as a hand operated exercise bicycle or elliptical trainer, configured to be worn on the arm of a person having an wrist injury so that the person may operate the exercise machine with the arm having the wrist injury without pressure on the wrist, wherein weight and force are distributed from the exercise machine to the forearm and upper arm without implicating the wrist.

Apparatus for isolating an injured wrist during aerobic exercise

An exercise apparatus and method for isolating an ankle during aerobic exercise on a bicycle configured to be worn on the leg of a person having an ankle injury so that the person may operate the bicycle with the leg having the ankle injury without pressure on the ankle, wherein weight and force are distributed from the pedal to the calf and thigh without implicating the ankle.

A curing composition for concrete that is an effective water barrier and that is relatively easily removed contains an acrylic or a styrene polymer latex and a polysaccharide. The polysaccharide makes the coating composition susceptible to enzyme action and thus easily removable by flooding the surface of the coated concrete with a dilute solution of enzyme reactive with the polysaccharide.

Dissipative curing and coating composition for concrete

A coating composition for concrete that is an effective water barrier and that is relatively easily removed comprises an acrylic copolymer or a styrene copolymer latex and a polysaccharide. The polysaccharide makes the coating composition susceptible to enzyme action and thus easily removable by flooding the surface of the coated concrete with a dilute solution of enzyme reactive with the polysaccharide.

A one-step process for simultaneously compressing and tempering fiberboard panel, which includes the step of applying to the panel prior to compression thereof an aqueous treating composition which comprises a polyvinyl acetate emulsion and optionally up to 40% of a hydrocarbon emulsion, up to 3% of a fluid, water-soluble organosilicone polymer, or up to 5% by weight of a starch crosslinking agent. The polyvinyl acetate emulsion is prepared in the presence of 6-10% by weight of a starch stabilizer selected from the group consisting of derivatized starches and/or converted starches and 0.5-1.5% of a surfactant. The preferred emulsions are polymerized in the presence of alkenyl succinate starches, most preferably octenyl succinate waxy maize starches.
