    Quantum confinement effect in self-assembled, nanometer silicon dots (1998)

    Notes: The first subband energy at the valence band of self-assembled silicon quantum dots grown by low-pressure chemical vapor deposition on ultrathin SiO2/Si substrates has been measured as an energy shift at the top of the valence band density of states by using high-resolution x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The systematic shift of the valence band maximum towards higher binding energy with decreasing the dot size is shown to be consistent with theoretical prediction. The charging effects of the silicon dots and the SiO2 layer by photoelectron emission during the measurements have been taken into account in determining the valence-band-edge energy. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract Recently, hepatocyte nuclear factor-1α (HNF-1α, which is encoded by the TCF1 gene) mutations were reported in a subset of patients with maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY3). We studied the contribution of TCF1 to genetic susceptibility to common non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (type 2) in Japanese subjects by investigating allelic association with type 2 diabetes use of three markers. We also studied the frequency of the G191D mutation, the only mutation of TCF1 reported so far in late-onset type 2 diabetes. A total of 356 subjects were studied. There were no significant differences in allele frequency of the three markers between patients with type 2 diabetes and control subjects. A G191D mutation was not found in the subjects studied, giving a frequency of less than 0.4% in common type 2 diabetes. The lack of association of type 2 diabetes with three markers in and near TCF1 suggests that mutations in TCF1 derived from a limited number of founders are not a major cause of common type 2 diabetes even in the genetically homogeneous Japanese population. The data also indicate that the G191D mutation in TCF1 plays little, if any, role in susceptibility to common type 2 diabetes in the Japanese.

    Meta-analysis of association of insertion/deletion polymorphism of angiotensin I-converting enzyme gene with diabetic nephropathy and retinopathy (1998)

    Notes: Summary An insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism in the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene has repeatedly been shown to be associated with ischaemic heart disease, but the association of this genetic marker with diabetic microangiopathy is controversial. To assess the association of the genotypes with the development of diabetic nephropathy or retinopathy, we performed a meta-analysis of data from the literature, using Mantel-Haenszel method followed by the Breslow-Day test for assessing homogeneity among data. In a total of 4773 diabetic patients from 18 studies with (n = 2495) and without (n = 2278) renal complications, the D allele was significantly associated with diabetic nephropathy (p 〈 0.0001) in a dominant model (summary odds ratio 1.32, 95 % confidence interval: 1.15 to 1.51). There was no significant evidence against homogeneity of the odds ratios (χ 2 = 18.9, 20 df; p = 0.53). The association was significant both in non-insulin-dependent (p 〈 0.005) and in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (p 〈 0.05). Likewise, in a total of 2010 diabetic patients with (n = 1008) and without (n = 1002) retinopathy, there was no association of the I/D polymorphism with diabetic retinopathy. These data suggest that the ACE I/D polymorphism affects the risk for diabetic nephropathy, but not for diabetic retinopathy. [Diabetologia (1998) 41: 47–53]

    The Superfluid Transition and Vortex Dynamics in Submonolayer Superfluid 4He Films in Porous Glass Under Rotation (1998)

    Notes: Abstract A combination of a rotating dilution refrigerator and high-Q torsional oscillator technique has been used to study dynamics of vortices in thin 4 He films adsorbed on the porous glass (d=1μm pore size). Under rotation an additional dissipation peak with the amplitude proportional to the angular velocity is seen at the middle of the superfluid transition, on the low temperature side of the stationary peak which is present even at Ω=0. We attribute this peak to the 3D Type vortices created in multiply connected 4 He film by the rotation. Peak shape of the rotation-induced dissipation could be interpreted as a freezing of the 3D vortices well below T c
