    Notes: Mixed cryoglobulinaemia is frequently associated with chronic hepatitis. We report a patient with mixed cryoglobulinaemia, hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and palpable purpura. The skin manifestations were diagnosed as leucocytoclastic vasculitis in view of both the clinical appearance and the histological findings. In this study, we demonstrated the presence of IgG–class anti–HCV–antibody. HCV–RNA and IgA–class rheumatoid factor in the cryoprecipitate. These results suggest that the cryoglobulinaemia in this case was caused by aggregation of an immune complex comprised of HCV and anti–HCV antibody with IgA–type–rheumatoid factor, and that this led to a cutaneous vasculitis.

    Notes: Defect formation in dehydrated silica glasses was investigated using various excimer lasers with different energies. The ArF laser (6.4 eV) generates the E' center more effectively than the KrF laser (5.0 eV), while the XeCl laser (4.0 eV) generated no centers. Defect generation was found to be proportional to the square of the laser photon density, indicating that it occurs dominantly due to a two-photon process which makes band-to-band excitation possible. The E' center probably originated from oxygen-deficient centers. Contributions to the E' center formation from a process involving direct absorption at the sites of intrinsic defects in SiO2 glass were discussed on the basis of the excitation energy dependence and a comparison with the effect of a low-pressure mercury lamp.

    Notes: The specific lattice location of Zn in CdTe single crystals has been investigated by ion-channeling methods combined with particle-induced x-ray emission. Observing the asymmetry effects of channeling dips around the [110] axis and analyzing the asymmetry factors for host atoms and doped Zn atoms, it is revealed that almost all Zn atoms occupy the Cd sublattice sites, and Zn-doped CdTe crystals grown by vertical Bridgman methods appear to be almost completely free from the segregation of doped Zn atoms.

    Notes: Using ion-channeling methods, the thermal stability of crystallinity for heavily Ga-doped ZnSe epitaxial layers grown on GaAs (100) substrates was investigated. Some distinctive features were found: The crystallinity of as-grown heavily Ga-doped ZnSe is similar to that of undoped ZnSe. After thermal annealing at 450 °C, the crystallinity of Ga-doped ZnSe is degraded, although that of undoped ZnSe is not significantly changed. It is expected that doped Ga atoms are displaced from the regular lattice sites after annealing. The degree of this degradation depends on the crystallinity of the as-grown Ga-doped ZnSe itself. These results indicate the degradation of the crystallinity for Ga-doped ZnSe epilayers is mainly caused by the interaction between the doped Ga atoms and grown-in point defects in the epitaxial layers. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Residual Ga and As atoms in SiOx and SiNy dielectric films deposited on GaAs were investigated by Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy and particle-induced x-ray emission techniques. Both Ga and As atoms were detected in the films after high temperature heat treatment, and even in the films as-deposited. The magnitude of the residual atoms presumably out-diffused from GaAs substrates was of the order of 1×1019 /cm3. The concentration of Ga atoms prevails over that of As atoms in SiOx/GaAs systems as is generally known, and vice versa in SiNy/GaAs systems after heat treatment. Dynamic behavior of Ga and As atoms in the films as functions of annealing temperature and annealing time cannot be explained by a simple diffusion mechanism. A model is proposed that the damaged layer around the interface of the systems is responsible for the anomalous out-diffusion phenomena.

    Notes: Abstract. Germination modes of lower seeds of cocklebur (Xanthium pennsylvanicum Wallr.) under different water stresses, prepared with mannitol solution, were examined in relation to gaseous factors. As the concentration of mannitol increased, germination was increasingly inhibited at a mode which was drawn by two straight lines having different slopes and meeting at an angle. One is a sharp line occurring at the lower concentrations of mannitol; the other is a gentle line occurring at higher concentrations of mannitol. The former reflected the growth response of axial tissues to mild water stress, whereas the latter reflected the growth response of cotyledonary tissues to severe water stress. The germination potential of cocklebur seeds increased with increasing temperature. Thus, the seeds were more resistant to water stress at higher than al lower temperatures. This increased germination potential under water stress resulted from the greater growth potential of axial tissues, but not cotyledonary tissues, at higher temperature. Increased O2 levels improved both the reduced axial and cotyledonary growth under water stress. Carbon dioxide predominantly enhanced axial growth under water stress, whereas C2H4 exclusively enhanced cotyledonary growth. Thus, these gases were effective in potentiating germination under water stress. When combined with each other, these gases caused more pronounced growth of the axial and cotyledonary tissues, leading to germination under more severe water stresses. Maximal axial and cotyledonary growth under water stress occurred in the simultaneous presence of CO2, C2H4 and O2, which allowed the germination at higher mannitol concentrations above 0.6 kmol m−3 From these results, it was suggested that cocklebur seeds would override water stress by depending upon both the Corresponding axial growth and the C2H4-responding cotyledonary growth.

    Notes: We investigated the expression of carbohydrate residues in regenerated junctional epithelium (JE) cells histopathologically with lectin staining to clarify the mechanisms responsible for the changes in their expression in JE cells derived from residual oral epithelium. Curettage and root planing procedures were performed on the buccal gingival sulci of rat first lower molars, and JE and connective tissues were completely removed. The mandibles were resected after 12 h and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 10 and 14 days, fixed with paraformaldehyde, decalcified with EDTA and embedded in paraffin. Serial sections were stained histochemically with four kinds of lectins (PNA, DBA, GS I, UEA I) to clarify the expression patterns of carbohydrate residues in regenerating epithelium. No binding of PNA or DBA was observed even when the regenerating epithelium was attached to the root surface, and they showed the same negative reactions as the basal cells of oral gingival epithelium (OGE). Positive reactions were, however, observed on the more stratified regenerating epithelium along the root surface. Positive reactions with GS I and negative reactions with UEA I were observed throughout the regeneration process, and these were the same as those observed in the basal cells of OGE. Therefore, we concluded that the basal cells and regenerated epithelium derived from OGE expressed the same carbohydrate residues. Futher-more, the expression of carbohydrate residues, one of the characteristics of JE, was related not only to the attachment to the tooth surface but also to changes of cell shape and cytoskeleton with stratification along the root surface.

    Notes: summary The aim of this study was to investigate whether there were sex differences in the electro-myograms (EMG) of the masticatory muscles and in the mandibular movement of young adults when chewing food. Twenty subjects with normal dentitions were selected. The II test foods selected were all easily available in Japan. The results showed firstly that although there were no significant differences of chewing frequency between males and females, females chew food more slowly with less masticatory force and narrower mouth opening width than males; and secondly it appears that the chewing function in females is lower than in males.

    Notes: High stresses in half-oval cast clasps are the main causes of deformation or fracture. A vertical curvature in clasps is said to be effective in reducing stress. However, such claims lack scientific basis. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate stress and stiffness in a three-dimensional (3D) finite element analysis (FEA) model of clasps with different vertical curvatures, cross-sectional forms and tapers, and to clarify the effect of vertical curvature on the half-oval cast clasp. Circumferential clasp arms for the mandibular second premolar were analysed by 3D FEA. The clasp arms were approximated by curved cantilever beams with a half-oval cross-section around a cylinder. The radius of curvature was set at 4 mm and the angle subtended by the clasp arm was 120°. The clasp tip was set at a point 2 mm lower than the base. In the ‘No-taper’ half-oval clasp arm, stress increased and stiffness decreased with the increase in vertical curvature. In the shape of a preformed wax pattern (thickness/width=0·80, tip/base=0·70), stress and stiffness decreased slightly. In an ‘Original’ form (thickness/width=0·33, tip/base=0·80), vertical curvature had a very slight effect on stress and stiffness, and stress was the lowest. These findings suggest the superiority of the ‘Original’ form, with less stress and no effect of vertical curvature.
