question:
Context: To describe the common locations of active trigger points (TrPs) in the temporalis muscle and their referred pain patterns in chronic tension type headache (CTTH), and to determine if pressure sensitivity maps of this muscle can be used to describe the spatial distribution of active TrPs.', 'Forty women with CTTH were included. An electronic pressure algometer was used to assess pressure pain thresholds (PPT) from 9 points over each temporalis muscle: 3 points in the anterior, medial and posterior part, respectively. Both muscles were examined for the presence of active TrPs over each of the 9 points. The referred pain pattern of each active TrP was assessed.', 'Two-way analysis of variance detected significant differences in mean PPT levels between the measurement points (F=30.3; P<0.001), but not between sides (F=2.1; P=0.2). PPT scores decreased from the posterior to the anterior column (P<0.001). No differences were found in the number of active TrPs (F=0.3; P=0.9) between the dominant side the nondominant side. Significant differences were found in the distribution of the active TrPs (chi2=12.2; P<0.001): active TrPs were mostly found in the anterior column and in the middle of the muscle belly. The analysis of variance did not detect significant differences in the referred pain pattern between active TrPs (F=1.1, P=0.4). The topographical pressure pain sensitivity maps showed the distinct distribution of the TrPs indicated by locations with low PPTs.
Answer: Multiple active TrPs in the temporalis muscle were found, particularly in the anterior column and in the middle of the muscle belly. Bilateral posterior to anterior decreased distribution of PPTs in the temporalis muscle in women with CTTH was found. The locations of active TrPs in the temporalis muscle corresponded well to the muscle areas with lower PPT, supporting the relationship between multiple active muscle TrPs and topographical pressure sensitivity maps in the temporalis muscle in women with CTTH.
answer:
Are multiple active myofascial trigger points and pressure pain sensitivity maps in the temporalis muscle related in women with chronic tension type headache?


question:
Context: The B cell chemoattractant chemokine ligand 13 (CXCL13) is emerging as a new biochemical marker in RA. This study was undertaken to dissect the relationship between CXCL13 expression levels in the synovium and clinico-pathological variables relevant to RA pathogenesis and outcome.', 'Synovial tissues from 71 RA patients were evaluated by immunohistochemistry. Thirty paired samples were used for comparative gene expression analysis by quantitative real-time PCR. CXCL13 levels were analysed in relation to cellular, molecular and clinical features of inflammation, lymphocyte activation and joint damage.', 'In patients with early disease (<12 months duration), CXCL13 expression correlated significantly with synovial markers of local disease activity and systemic inflammation. Such correlation was less evident in established RA. Notably, the association with lymphocyte infiltration and with expression of B/T cell-related activation and proliferation genes, such as activation-induced cytidine deaminase, IFN-γ and IL-2, remained highly significant independent of disease duration and local disease activity. Patients featuring the highest levels of CXCL13 were more frequently ACPA positive and IgG ACPA titres were increased in the high CXCL13 expression group. Furthermore, the frequency of erosive disease on radiographs was significantly higher in the upper tertile of CXCL13 expression (P = 0.01 with adjustment for disease duration and ACPA). Accordingly, synovial CXCL13 and the local receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL)/osteoprotegerin (OPG) ratio significantly co-varied (ρ = 0.52, P < 0.01), independent of the level of local inflammation.
Answer: Synovial CXCL13 appears to be a marker of a more severe pattern of RA disease, characterized by increased lymphocyte activation and bone remodelling beyond the level of conventional markers of inflammation.
answer:
Are high expression levels of the B cell chemoattractant CXCL13 in rheumatoid synovium a marker of severe disease?


question:
Context: The purpose of this investigation was to determine the influence of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) on the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of isoflurane in a rat model of CPB.', 'Prospective.', 'University research laboratory.', 'Sprague-Dawley rats.', 'Using tail-clamp methodology, the pre- and post-CPB MAC for isoflurane was studied.', 'Rats were anesthetized with isoflurane, intubated, ventilated, and surgically prepared for CPB, after which they were randomized to either Sham-operated or CPB groups. The CPB group (n = 10) underwent 90 minutes of normothermic nonpulsatile CPB. The Sham group (n = 13) were cannulated but did not undergo CPB. Pre- and post-CPB MAC determinations were compared within groups using a paired Student t test. The CPB group had a pre-CPB baseline isoflurane MAC of 1.09% +/- 0.11% versus 1.09% +/- 0.08% in the Sham group (p = 0.90). Twenty minutes after CPB, the CPB group exhibited a decrease in MAC to 0.98% +/- 0.14% (p = 0.0026, compared with baseline). The MAC in the Sham group was unchanged (p = 0.5852, compared with baseline). Two hours after CPB, the MAC in the CPB group remained lower compared with baseline at 0.99% +/- 0.14% (p = 0.0032).
Answer: CPB resulted in a small (10%) but significant reduction in the MAC for isoflurane. The mechanism behind this reduction in MAC is not clear but may be related to CPB-induced cerebral injury.
answer:

Does cardiopulmonary bypass reduce the minimum alveolar concentration for isoflurane?
