    Notes: Aims  To evaluate relapse prevention (relapse prevention) and contingency management (contingency management) for optimizing smoking cessation outcomes using nicotine replacement therapy for methadone-maintained tobacco smokers.Design  Experimental, 2 (relapse prevention)×2 (contingency management) repeated measures design using a platform of nicotine replacement therapy featuring a 2-week baseline period, followed by randomization to 12weeks of treatment, and 6- and 12-month follow-up visits.Setting  Three narcotic treatment centers in Los Angeles.Participants  One hundred and seventy-five participants who met all inclusion and no exclusion criteria.Intervention  Participants received 12weeks of nicotine replacement therapy and assignment to one of four conditions: patch-only, relapse prevention + patch, contingency management + patch and relapse prevention + contingency management + patch.Measurements  Thrice weekly samples of breath (analyzed for carbon monoxide) and urine (analyzed for metabolites of opiates and cocaine) and weekly self-reported numbers of cigarettes smoked.Findings  Participants (73.1%) completed 12weeks of treatment. During treatment, those assigned to receive contingency management showed statistically higher rates of smoking abstinence than those not assigned to receive contingencies (F3,4680=6.3, P=0.0003), with no similar effect observed for relapse prevention. At follow-up evaluations, there were no significant differences between conditions. Participants provided more opiate and cocaine-free urines during weeks when they met criteria for smoking abstinence than during weeks when they did not meet these criteria (F1,2054=14.38, P=0.0002; F1,2419=16.52, P〈0.0001).Conclusions  Contingency management optimized outcomes using nicotine replacement therapy for reducing cigarette smoking during treatment for opiate dependence, although long-term effects are not generally maintained. Findings document strong associations between reductions in cigarette smoking and reductions in illicit substance use during treatment.

    Periphyton biomass dynamics in gravel bed rivers: the relative effects of flows and nutrients (1989)

    Notes: SUMMARY. 1. Periphyton chlorophyll a and ash free dry weight (AFDW) were monitored in nine rivers to examine the relative importance of flows and nutrients for regulating periphyton biomass in gravel bed rivers.2. Mean annual flows in the rivers ranged from 0.94 to 169 m3 s−1, mean dissolved reactive phophorus (DRP) from 1.3 to 68 μ g 1−1, periphytic chlorophyll a from 4.6 to 73 mg m −2. and AFDW from 2.8 to 16 g m−2.3. For eight of the nine rivers NH4-N. DRP, total Kjeldahl nitrogen, total phosphorus and total suspended solids were correlated (P〈0.01) with flow, and for seven rivers conductivity was inversely correlated (P〈0.05) with flow.4. There was a hyperbolic relationship between flows and biomass, with chlorophyll a 〉100 mg m −2 and AFDW 〉20 g m−2 occurring most frequently in flows of 〈20 m3 s−1.5. Floods prevented the development of medium term (i.e. up to 2 months) maxima in biomass in five of the rivers, but maxima occurred over summer-autumn and winter-spring in the three rivers where floods were absent.6. Chlorophyll a biomass was more resistant to flooding than AFDW. Only 5993 of the forty-six recorded floods caused chlorophyll a scouring, whereas 74% of the floods caused AFDW scouring. The efficiency of scour was more influenced by the pre-flood biomass than the magnitude of the event.7. Biomass maxima were significantly correlated (P〈0.01) with mean DRP concentration during the accrual period. Overall, up to 53% of the mean annual biomass difference between rivers was explained by the mean annual DRP concentrations. However, the high correlations between nutrient concentrations and flow indicated that the nutrient data were also carrying hydrological information and that simple causal relationships between nutrients and biomass are difficult to establish in rivers.8. It is concluded that hydrological factors contribute at least equally with nutrients to the differences in periphyton biomass between the gravel-bed study rivers. They combined to explain up to 63.3% of the variance in biomass, compared with 57.6% for nutrients. It is recommended that periphyton data from gravel-bed rivers should always be viewed within the context of the flow history of the site, and not just as a function of nutrient concentrations.

    Notes: The increased susceptibility of the skin of chronically immunosuppressed individuals to viral infections and sunlight-induced malignancies suggests specific drug-induced, dysfunction of local immune mechanisms within the sun-exposed skin of these individuals. To help understand the effect of immunosuppressive therapy alone in the absence of ultraviolet light on the immune system of skin, biopsies were collected from non-sun-exposed buttock skin of control, healthy volunteers and kidney transplant recipients immunosuppressed with either azathioprine/ prednisone or cyclosporin A/prednisone and examined for incidences of T6+, and HLA-DR+ cells. No significant differences in the incidences of these 2 cell types were found (a) between control individuals and transplant recipients, (b) between transplant recipients receiving either of the immunosuppressive drug regimes, or (c) between transplant recipients who either had or had not developed skin cancer.

    Notes: Aims. Animal studies have shown that nicotine releases dopamine, a neurotransmitter implicated in drug reinforcement. We hypothesized that bromocriptine would decrease smoking behavior in humans. Design. The study was conducted double blind and subjects' order of dose exposure was randomized. Participants. The smoking behavior of 20 heavy smokers was recorded for 5 hours after ingesting placebo or one of two doses of bromocriptine (2.50 mg, 3.75 mg) over three sessions (one dose per session). Findings. There was a significant negative linear trend by dosage indicating shorter total puffing time with increasing bromocriptine dosages ( p 〈 0.02). Other significant negative linear trends by increasing dosage include fewer number of puffs, fewer number of cigarettes smoked and mean latency to smoke after 3 hours (expected CMAX on the drug (all p s 〈 0.05). There was a negative significant linear trend showing decreased plasma nicotine ( p 〈 0.02) and cotinine ( p 〈 0.005) with increasing dosages of bromocriptine. Shiffman/Jarvik Withdrawal Scale (SJWS) cigarette craving subscale scores decreased significantly across increasing dosages (linear trend p 〈 0.02). There was a significant negative linear trend ( p 〈 0.05) on the Profile of Mood States (POMS) Vigor and Depression subscales, with subjects reporting decreased vigor and depression with increasing bromocriptine doses. No other mood effects were observed. Conclusion. These results support the hypothesis that dopaminergic mechanisms mediate cigarette smoking reinforcement.

    Effect of Salt on the Thermal Stability of Storage Proteins from Fababean (Vicia Faba) (1986)

    Notes: The influence of various salts on stability of proteins in a fababean protein isolate were examined using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to monitor denaturation temperatures (Td). The ability of some salts to increase Td values, or stabilize the protein, was described as a biphasic linear relationship. The two distinct phases were attributed to two established stabilization mechanisms, electrostatic interaction and preferential hydration. Ranking of salts in terms of ability to stabilize or destabilize fababean proteins followed the lyotropic series for both major structural proteins present in the isolate. In most salt environments responses of the two proteins, legumin and vicilin, were slightly different; these differences were attributed to differences in electrostatic profiles and response to water availability for the two proteins.

    Notes: As measured by the Brabender viscoamylograph, alkali-cooking and soaking of maize in water (nixtamalization) caused large increases in viscosity, as compared with native flour. Marked effects of cooking time on the pasting properties of nixtamal were also observed. As assessed by the blue value method, nixtamalization does not cause extensive gelatinization of the starch. This was supported by differential scanning calorimetric studies, which yielded similar gelatinization endotherms for untreated maize and nixtamal flours. However, no endotherm peak appeared in tortilla samples made from this nixtamal. Furthermore, untreated maize and nixtamal flours contained many unswollen starch granules.

    Notes: Polyphenol oxidase (EC 1.14.18.1) has been purified from Jerusalem artichoke tubers by immobilized copper affinity chromatography. The enzyme is primarily an o-dihydroxyphenol oxidase with apparent Km values of 1.9, 3.5 and 3.9 mM for chlorogenic acid, 4-methylcatechol, and catechol, respectively. Several compounds exhibited inhibitory action for the enzyme in the order of: sodium metabisulfite 〉 sodium diethyldithiocarbamate 〉 2,3-naphthalenediol 〉 thioglycollate. Multiple forms were identified by gel filtration and SDS-gradient polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis: two aggregates with apparent MW of 120 and 86 K and two monomeric subnits of 40–42 and 32–34 K, respectively. Concentration dependent association-dissociation phenomena most likely determine the multimeric state of this enzyme. While the aggregated forms exhibited specificity towards mono-, di- and polyhydroxyphenols, the low MW subunits were found active only with o-dihydroxyphenols. The isoelectric points of the various enzyme species were within the range of 4.0 to 10.0. The enzyme was found to contain appreciable amounts of associated carbohydrate material.
