A carry case (104) for a portable radio (102) provides automatic programming of the radio by including a proximity sensor (106) in the carry case. The proximity sensor (106) includes embedded radio programming information which gets downloaded to the radio (102) when the radio is inserted into the carry case (104). The radio (102) includes an excitation circuit (114) for activating the proximity sensor (106) when the radio (102) is inserted within the carry case (104). The radio (102) also includes a reader circuit (116) for reading the radio programming information. Individualized programming parameters can be included within a user's carry case (104) so that a radio (102) can be shared amongst multiple users yet still provide personalized features.

Compositions and methods for reducing inflammation in the central nervous system (CNS) of a mammal that has been subjected to a stroke, traumatic injury to the CNS such as traumatic brain injury (TBI), spinal cord injury (SCI), or having an autoimmune or CNS disease have been developed. The compositions and methods described herein include antibodies that specifically bind to at least one component (e.g., ASC, NALP1) in a mammalian inflammasome (e.g., the NALP1 inflammasome) and have use as treatments for SCI, TBI, stroke, and autoimmune and CNS diseases in a mammal. In a rodent model of SCI, therapeutic neutralization of ASC using a polyclonal antibody that specifically binds to ASC inhibited the inflammasome, reduced caspase-1 activation, XIAP cleavage, and interleukin processing, resulting in significant tissue sparing and functional improvement. Additionally, in a rodent model of TBI, neutralization of ASC after TBI reduced caspase-1 activation and XIAP cleavage. Further, in a rodent thromboembolic stroke model, neutralization of NLRP1 resulted in reduced histopathological damage in mice and reduced cytokine activation, suggesting that the inflammasome complex forms in the brain after stroke and is a therapeutic target for reducing the detrimental consequences of post-stroke inflammation.

A battery pack (304) and battery charging system (300, 400) provides contactless dynamic battery parameter sensing. A proximity sensor (208) is located in the battery pack (304) to monitor battery parameter measurements taken by battery parameter sensors (206). These battery parameter measurements are transferred to a charger (302) or radio (404) through a wireless link established between an excitation circuit, proximity sensor, and reader. The dynamically measured battery parameter information allows a charger (302) or radio (404) to select or adapt a charging routine based on the battery measurements. The use of a proximity sensor (208) along with battery parameter sensors (206) allow for minimal interface contacts between the radio and charger as well as the radio and battery.

A unitarily molded seal membrane (310) includes an integral microphone support (304) which includes a diaphragm (306). A cavity wall (406) is located about said diaphragm (306) on one side of the seal membrane (310). The cavity wall (406) defines a cavity area (410) for receiving a microphone (504). The cavity wall aligns the diaphragm (306) in front of the microphone (504), thereby allowing for environmental sealing of the microphone (504).
