    Notes: Abstract Pseudomembranous colitis and toxic megacolon are rare complications of antineoplastic chemotherapy. Twelve cases of pseudomembranous colitis and four cases of toxic megacolon, both occurring as complications of chemotherapy, have been reported in the medical literature. These diseases occurred as separate and distinct entities. Fulminating pseudomembranous colitis leading to toxic megacolon in the setting of chemotherapy has not been previously reported. We report such a case, emphasizing its atypical presentation and rapid, fulminant course.

    Notes: Abstract PURPOSE: The purpose of this paper is to establish the number of cases necessary to master laparoscopic removal of the left or right colon. METHODS: Data were obtained by chart review and by individually completed questionnaires. RESULTS: A total of 144 laparoscopic-assisted or intracorporeal right or left hemicolectomies were completed by four surgeons at separate institutions. Questionnaires were completed by each surgeon for each sequential hemicolectomy, and data concerning the type of surgery and total operating time were recorded. Times were plotted to diagram individual learning curves for each surgeon, and data grouping methods were used to determine the curve for each surgeon as well as for the combined data base. Learning was said to have been completed when the surgeon's operative time reached a low point and subsequently did not vary by more than 30 minutes. A total of 78 right colectomies and 66 left colectomies were completed by the group. Respectively, each surgeon appeared to learn the procedure after 16, 21, 11, and 6 cases. When the entire database was analyzed as a whole, it was shown that between 11 and 15 completed colectomies were needed for learning, after which operative times remained relatively stable. CONCLUSIONS: This analysis, using total operative time as an indication of learning, shows that approximately 11 to 15 completed laparoscopic colectomies are needed to comfortably learn this procedure.

    Methods to prevent colonic injury in pelvic radiation (1994)
    Springer
    Diseases of the colon & rectum 37 (1994), S. 1090-1094

    Notes: Abstract PURPOSE: Radiation has become an adjunct in the treatment of pelvic malignancies. Attempts to prevent adjacent tissue injury have met with varying degrees of success, and the purpose of this study was to investigate potential radioprotective effects of an elemental diet, sodium meclofenamate, and vitamin A in an animal model of acute and chronic pelvic radiation previously described. METHODS: Female Sprague-Dawley rats, 200–250 grams, were anesthetized and then received 900 rads of pelvic radiation once per week for five weeks for a total of 4500 rads. Animals were divided into five groups. Treatment groups received radiation and elemental diet, radiation and vitamin A, radiation and sodium meclofenamate. Control animals received anesthesia only and no radiation. Vitamin A was given as a supplement to (662 IU/kg) standard rat chow. Elemental diet was given as a commercially available formula, whereas sodium meclofenamate was given as a postoperative supplement (5 mg/kg/day). All animals were given these treatments during the course of radiation therapy only. Histology of distal colon was measured at one week, five weeks, six months, and one year postradiation therapy. The distal two cm of colon were removed at necropsy and fixed in 10 percent formalin at each of the above time points. Histologic grade was determined by a previously described grading scale. RESULTS: Results showed a qualitative radiation injury that could be documented at one and five weeks postradiation. Elemental diet, vitamin A, and sodium meclofenamate prevented histologic changes that occurred at these time points. No difference in histologic grade was seen between any groups at six months and one year postradiation therapy. CONCLUSION: In summary, our model of pelvic radiation produces a definable radiation injury within the colon at one and five weeks postradiation. Use of elemental diet, vitamin A, and sodium meclofenamate prevented these changes.

    Basal and meal-stimulated colonic absorption (1996)
    Springer
    Diseases of the colon & rectum 39 (1996), S. 865-870

    Notes: Abstract PURPOSE: Few quantitative experiments evaluating colonic absorption of water and electrolytes have been performed using an awake, conscious animal model. The purpose of these experiments was to develop this type of model and evaluate both basal and meal-stimulated colonic absorption of water and electrolytes. METHODS: Canine Thiry-Vella fistulas were created using a 20 cm segment of distal colon under general anesthesia. Colonic absorption studies were performed using infusion of the Thiry-Vella fistulas with a buffer solution containing [14C]polyethylene glycol. Electrolyte analysis and concentration of radioactivity in the effluent were obtained and used to calculate the net flux of water, sodium, and chloride. Each study consisted of an one-hour basal period and a three-hour experimental period divided into two groups. Group 1 received no meal. Group 2 orally ingested a mixed meal at the completion of the basal hour. RESULTS: In the basal state, water and electrolytes are absorbed from the distal colon at a steady and constant rate. An orally ingested meal produces a statistically significant increase in the rate of absorption, independent of direct colonic luminal contact with the nutrients of the meal given. CONCLUSIONS: These studies demonstrate an in vivo quantitative and qualitative measure of mammalian colonic water and electrolyte absorption. An increase in absorption rate occurs in response to a meal that is probably the result of an unidentified neural or humoral signal.

    Notes: The solution of the time dependent Schrödinger equation, including renormalization of the wave function, is used to obtain quantum mechanical expressions for the optical rotation and the circular dichroism. The use and form of the radiative damping term is examined with respect to its effects in the circular dichroism formula.

    Solvent stabilization of the edge inversion transition state in tetrahedral molecules (1988)

    Notes: The edge inversion process in phosphoric acid, PO(OH)3 has been studied by large scale ab initio molecular orbital theory. Edge inversion of the tetrahedral ground state via a square-planar transition state requires 69.5 kcal/mol (MP-2). Addition of two NH3 solvent molecules to the vacant NLUMO stabilizes the transition state by 45 kcal/mol (MP-2). The value for ΔH(300K) for the reaction 2NH3 + PO(OH)3 → PO(OH)3 · (NH3)2 is 24.1 kcal/mol (MP-2). The complex with two NH3 molecules is an intermediate. Addition of one NH3 to PO(OH)3 leads to an energy lowering of the planar form of 31 kcal/mol. This structure is now a transition state. The value for ΔH(300K) for the reaction NH3 + PO(OH)3 → PO(OH)3 · NH3 is 38.6 kcal/mol (MP-2). The complex of PF3O with two NH3 molecules was studied and is an intermediate. The value for ΔH(300K) for the reaction 2NH3 + POF3 → POF3 · (NH3)2 is only 3.3 kcal/mol (MP-2). Electron-donor solvents clearly will stabilize the edge inversion transition state for tetracoordinate main group compounds.

    Notes: The molecular and electronic structures of ADPO 1, a model thiapentalene 2, and [Xe2F3]+ have been calculated in the local-density functional (LDF) formalism with polarized double numerical basis sets. The molecules were calculated to have planar C2ν structures in agreement with experiment and in contrast to Hartree-Fock molecular-orbital calculations. The vibrational spectra of all species were calculated to show that the optimized structures are indeed minima. The calculated spectrum of [Xe2F3]+ is compared with the experimental one and excellent agreement is found. These results demonstrate that the LDF method can be applied to the prediction of molecular structures containing hypervalent bonds.
