How much peritoneal dialysis does your patient need? Parameters and goals
Authors: Teitelbaum Isaac 
Published: August 2010

AbstractPeritoneal dialysis adequacy is most commonly assessed by indices of small solute clearance (Kt/Vurea and creatinine clearance [Ccr], for example). Once a threshold of small solute clearance has been obtained, however, further increases in small solute clearance do not result in improved long‐term outcomes of peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. In addition to small solute clearance, there are several other factors that may affect optimal dialysis outcomes. These include, but are not limited to: volume homeostasis, infiammation, malnutrition, and mineral/bone metabolism. This article will briefiy review data regarding the relationships between these various factors and survival on PD.
Crosslinking combined with mass spectrometry for structural proteomics
Authors: Petrotchenko Evgeniy V. , Borchers Christoph H. 
Published: August 2010

AbstractThe method of crosslinking combined with mass spectrometry is being gradually accepted as a technology enabling detailed structural information on proteins and protein complexes. Intrinsic challenges of the method, which have prevented its widespread use, are being progressively addressed by improvements in mass spectrometry instrumentation capabilities, by the development of new crosslinking reagents, and by the development of specialized software tools for processing of mass spectrometric crosslinking data. This review focuses on recent literature concerning the development of specialized crosslinking reagents and approaches for mass spectrometry‐based applications. Critical features of crosslinking reagents for optimum mass spectrometric performance, such as isotopic coding, cleavability, affinity groups, structure of the linkers, and reactive groups, are assessed. Requirements for the design of crosslinking reagents to make them well suited for mass spectrometric detection and analysis are summarized. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Optical biosensors based on integrated polymer light source and polymer photodiode
Authors: Ramuz Marc , Leuenberger David , Bürgi Lukas 
Published: August 2010

AbstractEvanescent coupling is used to couple light from an organic Lambertian emitter into a single‐mode planar waveguide. A polymer light emitting diode pumps a photoluminescent layer located directly on top of the waveguide. At the out‐coupling grating stage, a fully organic mini‐spectrometer compatible with monolithical integration on optical bio chips has been developed. It consists of a single‐mode waveguide with integrated diffraction grating and a dense array of polymer photodiodes as sensing element. An overall spectral resolution of down to 5 nm has been achieved with the integrated optoelectronic system. As a proof of principle the fully organic optical device has been used in combination with a fluidic system to demonstrate an absorption‐based bio‐test with mouse immunoglobulin G. In a further step towards low‐cost and disposable lab‐on‐chip biosensors, the mentioned organic building blocks have been combined with a surface plasmon stack integrated directly onto the single mode waveguide. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Published: August 2010

Abstractn‐3 Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) have a chemopreventive effect while n‐6 PUFA promote carcinogenesis. The effect of these essential fatty acids may be related to oxidative stress. Therefore, the study was designed to evaluate the effect of different ratios of fish oil (FO) and corn oil (CO) in the prevention of colon cancer. Male Wistar rats were divided into control, dimethylhydrazine dihydrochloride (DMH) treated, FO + CO (1:1) and FO + CO (2.5:1). All the groups, except the control received a weekly injection of DMH for 4 weeks. The animals were sacrificed either 48 h later (initiation phase) or kept for 16 weeks (post initiation phase). DMH treatment in the initiation phase animals showed mild to moderate inflammation, decreased ROS and TrxR activity, increased antioxidants, apoptosis and ACF multiplicity. The post initiation study showed severe inflammation with hyperplasia, increased ACF multiplicity and ROS levels, a decrease in antioxidants and apoptosis. The FO + CO (1:1) treated animals showed severe inflammation, a decrease in ROS, an increase in antioxidants and apoptosis in the initiation phase. FO + CO (1:1) in the post initiation phase and FO + CO (2.5:1) in the initiation showed mild inflammation, increased ROS, apoptosis and decreased antioxidants. There was a decrease in ACF multiplicity and ROS levels, increased antioxidants and apoptosis in the post initiation phase study. The present study suggests that FO has a dose‐ and time‐dependent chemopreventive effect in colon cancer mediated through oxidative stress and apoptosis.
Balloon sinuplasty: our first year

Published: August 2010

AbstractIntroduction:Balloon sinuplasty is a new technology which has only recently been introduced in the UK. We review the current literature, and we present our first year's results for the technique together with a description of indications, outcomes and problems.Methods:Retrospective case note review of 27 consecutive patients undergoing sinuplasty alone in the first year in which this procedure was performed. The main outcome measures used were subjective improvement and Sino-Nasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22) score.Results:Dilatation was successful in 98 per cent of sinuses in which it was attempted; however, subjective improvement was noted in only 62 per cent of patients thus treated.Conclusion:We believe that balloon sinuplasty has a place in routine rhinology practice but that its applications are limited, and that its additional costs must be considered. We present advantages and possible limitations of the technique.
The insecure future of Bulgarian refugial mires: economic progress versus Natura 2000

Published: August 2010

AbstractMany mires of high conservation value occur in Bulgaria. These mires acted as refugia during the dry phases of ice ages and therefore contain a high number of rare and disjunct species. The mires harbour specific ecotypes and genotypes of plants and animals, and thus provide an opportunity to test biogeographical hypotheses, and they also contain important information about the history of European mires. In this study we ranked all known mire and spring complexes in Bulgaria according to the occurrence of rare and threatened plant and mollusc species. This analysis shows a conspicuous concentration of rare species at several sites, and no correspondence between the importance of individual mires for biodiversity and their legal protection. Of the 10 mire complexes of highest priority only one is effectively protected. The remaining unprotected mires have either been destroyed or are threatened by ongoing development. Having joined the European Union, Bulgaria has built a Natura 2000 network that could provide an opportunity for mire conservation. However, destruction of mire habitats proceeds faster than the approval of Natura 2000 sites. There is thus a possibility that unique Bulgarian mires will be lost before the Natura 2000 system begins to perform its role. Only effective and timely protection of the mire remnants, together with appropriate management, will ensure the future of these unique habitats.
Social world interactions: how company connects to paranoia

Published: August 2010

BackgroundExperimental studies have indicated that social contact, even when it is neutral, triggers paranoid thinking in people who score high on clinical or subclinical paranoia. We investigated whether contextual variables are predictive of momentary increases in the intensity of paranoid thinking in a sample of participants ranging across a psychometric paranoia continuum.MethodThe sample (n=154) consisted of 30 currently paranoid patients, 34 currently non-paranoid patients, 15 remitted psychotic patients, 38 high-schizotypy participants, and 37 control subjects. Based on their total score on Fenigstein's Paranoia Scale (PS), three groups with different degrees of paranoia were defined. The Experience Sampling Method (ESM), a structured diary technique, was used to assess momentary social context, perceived social threat and paranoia in daily life.ResultsThere were differences in the effect of social company on momentary levels of paranoia and perceived social threat across the range of trait paranoia. The low and medium paranoia groups reported higher levels of perceived social threat when they were with less-familiar compared to familiar individuals. The medium paranoia group reported more paranoia in less-familiar company. The high paranoia group reported no difference in the perception of social threat or momentary paranoia between familiar and unfamiliar contacts.ConclusionsParanoid thinking is context dependent in individuals with medium or at-risk levels of trait paranoia. Perceived social threat seems to be context dependent in the low paranoia group. However, at high levels of trait paranoia, momentary paranoia and momentary perceived social threat become autonomous and independent of social reality.

Published: August 2010

RÉSUMÉIl y a peu de recherche comparative en existence sur les expériences de la santé et les conditions de groupes minoritaires au Canada et aux États-Unis, malgré le fait que les deux pays ont des populations racialement diverses avec une proportion significative des immigrants. Cet article explore les disparités raciales et immigrantes en santé et soins d’accès entre les deux pays. L’étude portait sur l’âge mûr et la vieillesse, compte tenu du changement et de la diversité croissante dans la politique de santé et les soins de santé, tel que Medicare. L’analyse de régression logistique des données de l’Enquête de la santé Canada/États-Unis 2002–2003 montre que l’effet conjoint de la race et de la nativité de santé – différences en santé entre indigènes blancs et étrangers blancs et non-blancs est en grande partie négligeable au Canada, mais considérable aux États-Unis. Americains indigènes non-blancs et américains nés à l’étranger au sein des groupes d’âge 45-à-64 et 65-et-plus expériencent une désavantage significative dans l’état de santé et aussi de l’accès aux soins, indépendamment de la couverture d’assurance-maladie et des facteurs démographiques, socio-économiques et de la mode de vie.

SUMMARYThis paper describes morbidity and mortality parameters forCampylobacterspp.,Salmonellaspp., enterohaemorrhagicEscherichia coli,Listeriaspp., norovirus infections and their primary associated sequelae [Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS), haemolytic uraemic syndrome, reactive arthropathies and Reiter's syndrome]. Data from a period of 4 years were obtained from three national databases to estimate percentage of reported cases hospitalized, mean annual hospitalization incidence rate, frequency of hospitalization by age and sex, and number of deaths. The length of hospital stay, discharge disposition, hospitalization age, and number of diagnoses per case were also extracted and summarized. In addition, we estimated that each year in Canada, there are between 126 and 251 cases ofCampylobacter-associated GBS. This study provides morbidity and mortality estimates for the top enteric pathogens in Canada, including their associated sequelae, which can contribute to the quantification of the burden of illness.
Imprinting self-assembled patterns of lines at a semiconductor surface, using heat, light, or electrons

Published: August 2010

The fabrication of nano devices at surfaces makes conflicting demands of mobility for self-assembly (SA) and immobility for permanence. The solution proposed in earlier work from this laboratory involved pattern formation in physisorbed molecules by SA, followed by localized reaction to chemically imprint the pattern substantially unchanged, a procedure we termed molecular-scale imprinting (MSI). Here, as proof of generality we extended this procedure, previously applied to imprinting circles on Si(111)-7 × 7, to SA lines of 1-chloropentane (CP) on Si(100)-2 × 1. The physisorbed lines consisted of pairs of CP that grew perpendicular to the Si dimer rows, as shown by scanning tunneling microscopy and ab initio theory. Chemical reaction of these lines with the surface was triggered in separate experiments by three different modes of energization: heat, electrons, or light. In all cases the CP molecules underwent MSI with a Si atom beneath so that the physisorbed lines of CP pairs were imprinted as chemisorbed lines of Cl pairs.

Published: August 2010

Abstract
Summary: We present a novel Golgi-prediction server, GolgiP, for computational prediction of both membrane- and non-membrane-associated Golgi-resident proteins in plants. We have employed a support vector machine-based classification method for the prediction of such Golgi proteins, based on three types of information, dipeptide composition, transmembrane domain(s) (TMDs) and functional domain(s) of a protein, where the functional domain information is generated through searching against the Conserved Domains Database, and the TMD information includes the number of TMDs, the length of TMD and the number of TMDs at the N-terminus of a protein. Using GolgiP, we have made genome-scale predictions of Golgi-resident proteins in 18 plant genomes, and have made the preliminary analysis of the predicted data.

AimsAlthough dyspnoea is the most common cause of admission for acute heart failure (AHF), more needs to be known about its clinical course and prognostic significance.Methods and resultsThe Pre‐RELAX‐AHF study randomized 232 subjects with AHF to placebo or four doses of relaxin and evaluated early (6–24 h Likert scale) and persistent [change in visual analogue scale area under the curve (VAS AUC) through Day 5] dyspnoea relief. Worsening heart failure (WHF) was defined as worsening AHF signs and symptoms requiring additional therapy. Patients were followed until Day 180. Early dyspnoea relief was observed in only 25% of all patients, and VAS AUC at 5 days was 45% over baseline values in all patients (32% placebo; 50% all relaxin‐treated patients). Worsening heart failure to Day 5 was observed in 16% of all patients (21% placebo; 14% relaxin). Lack of persistent dyspnoea relief and WHF were associated with a longer length of initial hospital stay and worse 60‐day outcomes.ConclusionDyspnoea relief in patients admitted with AHF is often incomplete, and many may show WHF after the initial stabilization. Both lack of persistent dyspnoea relief and in‐hospital WHF predict a longer length of stay and worse outcome.
51. On the Morphology and Systematics of Micropterygidæ (Lepidoptera Homoneura) of Japan and Formosa, with some considerations on the Australian, European, and North American Forms.

Published: August 2010

Summary.Neomicropteryxis, in spite of its having the same type of venation asPalœ‐omicroides, phylogenetically widely remote from the other two genera of our country, viz.,ParamartyriaandPalœomicroides, in view of the different type of structures of mouth‐parts and abdomen.ParamartyriaandPalœomicroides, though somewhat different in the structure of the radial Pector, are quite close to each other in having the same type of other wing‐veins, mouth‐parts, and tibial appendages.It would appear that the North AmericanEpimartyriais, on the whole, nearest to ourParamartyriaandPalœomicroides, since in the wing‐venation it shows close affinity to the former and to the latter in the gonocoxite of genitalia; moreover, the structures of the cranium, antenna, maxillary palpus, and labial palpus are almost the same in these three geners.The EuropeanMicropteryxis an isolated genus of the family, from the evidence offered by the head and appendages, wing‐venation, as well as the genitalia.As regards the New ZealandSabatinca, in which the genital structures show wonderful variation in different species (I could not actually study it) this genus might not be monophyletic, and may be divisible into several genera. That is,MicropardulisMeyr. will stand on firmer ground andPalœomicraMeyr. will be revived; moreover, some new genera might be established when we have considered the evidence which an exhaustive study of every species may bring forward; this supposition will be emphasised when we consider the specific difference in antennz which is present among the species.In my opinion the Queensland forms (at least as far asS. calliplacaMeyr. and the unknown third species are concerned) should be separated fromSabatincaWalk., and a new genus should be established for the reception of these forms.In the light of the present study, the definition of the family Micropterygidæ may be modified as follows:—Head rough‐haired. Ocelli present. Antenna moniliform, sub‐moniliform, or filiform. Mandible developed, toothed and functional. Maxilla with lacinia, galea not elongated; palpus elongated, with five segments. Labial palpus minute*, two‐, three‐, or four‐segmented. Middle tibia without spurs. Hind tibia with two pairs of spurs. Fore wing more or less broadly lanceolate; jugal lobe small, bent under the wing; costal area enlarged and crossed near its middle by an oblique branch from subcosta; all branches of radius present; stem of media (M1–4) and its principal forking (mf') always present; second branch of cubitus (Cu2) completely present. Hind wing a little narrower than the fore: four branches of radial sector present; stem of media (M1–4) and its principal forking (mf') always present; second branch of cubitus completely retained and fused with first anal at a distance; second anal joins with first anal apically.
22. The Activity and Metabolism of Poikilothermal Animals in Different Latitudes.—II.
Authors: Fox H. Munro , Wingfield C. A. 
Published: August 2010

Summary.Whereas in some genera of marine decapod crustaceans the scaphognathite and heart rates of species from English waters are no faster than the rates for other species of the same genera living in arctic waters, each measured at their natural temperatures, in other genera the rates for the English species are faster than those for the arctic species.The prawn Pandulus montagui attains a larger size in arctic than in English waters. Taken from the former habitat, it supports a lower maximum aquarium temperature than from the latter.The curves relating oxygen consumption to temperature for the prawns Pandalus borealis from arctic waters and P. montagui from Plymouth are parallel to the corresponding curves for the isolated muscles of these animals. This bears out the hypothesis that the greater oxygen consumption of warm water animals is due to a greater non‐locomotory metabolism.Larger individuals of Pandalus montagui have a slower heart rate than smaller individuals, but there is no such relation between their rates of oxygen consumption.
