    Notes: Abstract Objectives: To clarify subsite-specific risk factors for hypopharyngeal and esophageal cancers (HC and EC), we concluded a hospital-based case–referent study in Nagoya, Japan. Methods: Subjects comprised 346 male cases with cancer of the hypopharynx (n = 62) or esophagus (upper [U-EC] 53, middle [M-EC] 159, lower [L-EC] 72), and 11,936 male referents free from cancer among first-visit outpatients aged 40–79 years in 1988–1997. Of histological confirmed cases, 93% comprised squamous cell carcinoma. Odds ratios (ORs) were estimated by a logistic regression model with adjustment for potential confounding factors. Results: Cigarette smoking increased the OR for M-EC, and alcohol drinking elevated the ORs for all subsites. The trend of ORs for combined cases of M- and L-EC tended to increase with number of cigarettes (p = 0.056), and a decreasing trend of the ORs was found with years after quitting smoking (p = 0.006). The ORs for smoking with drinking were multiplicatively greater than those for smoking or drinking in combined cases of HC and EC. In contrast, daily raw vegetable consumption lowered the ORs for all subsites. Conclusions: This study suggests that the magnitude of risk with smoking is stronger for M-EC within the esophagus, and drinking increases the risk at any subsite.

    Notes: A model system for studying the reinforcement of paper is provided by the use of cationic latexes. The control of pH during addition of the latex to the pulp determines the uniformity of the latex deposition on the fibers. It is demonstrated, using scanning electron microscopy and mechanical testing of the sheet, that the dry and wet strength properties are improved by the more uniform distribution of a film-forming latex. Conversely, a nonfilming latex impedes bonding to the extent that the fiber surface is covered.

    Notes: Polystyrene latexes have been synthesized by a method based on that Kotera et al.4 The polymerization rates and yields have been improved by the addition of an alcohol (methanol) to the reactants. The effects of varying the methanol content and other process variables on the polymerization and on the properties of the latex are reported.

    Notes: Four experimental latexes of different styrene-butadiene ratios stabilized with quaternized amino groups were employed in deposition studies on unbeaten kraft pulp fibers. The attraction between the oppositely charged latex and fibers facilitates a ready latex deposition in the pH region between the points of zero charge of the latex and of the fibers. The rate of deposition appears to be controlled by latex diffusion and convection up to the fiber surface. The distribution of latex particles deposited on the fiber surface is related to the butadiene content and the latex stability. Polystyrene latex is the most stable and covers the fibers uniformly as individual particles. With increased butadiene content, the coagulation region of the latex is more extended and the tendency to deposit as aggregates is promoted.
