A method of neutralizing or mitigating a drug-induced mitochondrial dysfunction or impairment for an individual, the method including providing to the individual an effective amount of a composition containing glycine or a functional derivative thereof and N-acetylcysteine or a functional derivative thereof. The drug-induced mitochondrial dysfunction or impairment is from at least one drug consumed by the individual selected from the group consisting of an anticonvulsant; a psychotropic other than an antipsychotic drug; an analgesic/anti-inflammatory drug other than acetaminophen; an antibiotic; an anti-arrhythmic drug; a steroid; a beta-blocker; and an immunization.

The vehicle includes a side door with a window, an antenna, and a bracket. The side door includes an outer panel located downward from the window and a door frame extending along the perimeter of the window. The antenna is fixed by double-sided adhesive tape on an outer face of a section of the door frame that extends in the up-down direction. The bracket is attached to the side door, and faces a cable extending downward from the antenna. The bracket has a cable opening through which the cable passes, between the bracket and the door frame. The cable opening has a shape through which the antenna cannot pass.

A vehicle body structure includes a garnish provided on an outer side of a vehicle, an adapter joined to the garnish, a radar device supported by the adapter, and a cover joined to the garnish and covering the radar device. The garnish includes a mounting hole, a first annular rib extending to surround the mounting hole, and an annular surface defined by an edge part of the mounting hole and the first annular rib. The adapter is joined to a back side of the garnish in a position corresponding to the mounting hole. The cover includes a plate-shaped portion that is disposed inside the first annular rib, has an outer edge portion opposing an inner side surface of the first annular rib via a first clearance, and covers the mounting hole, and restriction walls protruding from a back side of the plate-shaped portion toward the annular surface.

A vehicle trim accessory vehicle trim accessory comprises an elongated central portion having first and second opposing long edges, an elongated mounting flange portion having first and second opposing long edges, an elongated first curved portion connecting the first long edge of the central portion and the first long edge of the mounting flange portion, an elongated free flange portion having first and second opposing long edges, and an elongated second curved portion connecting the second long edge of the central portion and the first long edge of the free flange portion. The size and radius of the curved portion is selected to create a desired angle and distance between the central portion and the mounting flange portion and therefore between the central portion and the pinch rail. Both the first and second curved portions curve toward a same side of the central portion.

A vehicle applique is provided that includes a substantially transparent substrate defining first and second surfaces, a decorative film positioned on the first surface of the substrate, and an over-mold positioned over the film. The over-mold defines at least one diffraction grating and a light source is positioned proximate the second surface of the substrate. The light source is configured to emit light through the substrate and the over-mold.

Temporary vehicle protection devices and methods of using the same are generally described herein. The devises generally include a flexible form fitting strip of impact absorbing material adapted to encircle a vehicle when parked thus protecting the front, sides, and rear of vehicle and wherein the device secures to itself upon closure by a device locking mechanism.
