    Notes: Abstract Rotavirus (RV), a common cause of infectious enteritis in young children including neonates, has not been associated with central nervous symptoms in standard textbooks. However, involvement of the CNS has been reported recently in case reports and small series. From 786 neonatal admissions in 1991 we retrospectively analysed the records of 215 inpatient neonates (68 preterm and 147 term infants) who developed diarrhoea during their stay on the neonatal ward and in whom stools were investigated for RV antigen by ELISA. All 215 neonates were continuously monitored for bradycardia-apnoea-episodes (BAE) at least 2 days before and during the entire diarrhoeal period. In neonates with RV antigen in stools (n=114) we found a higher incidence of BAE compared to neonates with RV negative stools (33% vs 8%,P〈0.001 for bradycardia; 7% vs 0%,P〈0.05 for apnoea). Furthermore, bradycardia episodes of RV positive neonates were more often followed by cyanosis (11 vs 0%,P〈0.05) and intervention was more often necessary (31 vs 14%,P〈0.05) than in the RV negative neonates. Conclusion RV infection was associated with a high incidence of BAE in neonates with diarrhoea during the acute phase of disease suggesting CNS involvement.

    Notes: Abstract In this study, we used once-plowed lands that have returned to forest for over 50 years to study the vertical distribution of meteorologically-deposited lead. These mineral soils were an essentially homogeneous 20 cm-thick layer when last plowed. As such, they were effectively a “clean slate” upon which pollutants deposited since the last plowing can be measured without the confounding aspects of well-developed natural soil horizons and the spatial heterogeneity of native forest soils. The concentration and amount of lead as well as copper and zinc, biologically active metals, were measured at five sites in New England. In the mineral soil, copper content ranged from 25 mg cm depth−1 m−2 at 0–2 cm depth to 37 mg cm depth−1 m−2 at 6–8 cm depth, but showed no consistent pattern with depth at all sites. Zinc concentrations and amounts increased with depth in the mineral soil to 14 μg g−1 and 167 mg cm depth−1 m−2, respectively. In contrast, lead showed a decrease with depth from 350 mg cm depth−1 m−2 at 0–2 cm depth to 102–108 mg cm depth−1 m−2 between 10 and 20 cm depth. At all five sites, decreases in lead concentration with depth were correlated with decreases in the amount of organic mater. Amounts of total lead deposited since the abandonment from plowing have been estimated at 1.4 g m-2 in rural sites. Thirty-five percent of this presumably anthropogenically-derived lead was in the forest floor; the remaining 65 % was in the upper mineral soil.

    General theory of stationary random sequences with applications to the tacticity of polymersPaper presented at the 142nd Meeting of the American Chemical Society, Atlantic City, New Jersey, September 1962. (1996)

    Notes: When, in a poly-α-olefin, the probability that a given placement be isotactic depends upon the tacticity of only a finite number of immediate predecessors, the resulting diastereosequence distribution obeys the theory of Markoff chains. When this is not the case, one says that the resulting diastereosequence distribution is non-Markoffian. A special case of a Markoffian distribution is given by a simple Markof chain in which the tacticity of a given placement is assumed to be affected by only the tacticity of the immediately preceding placement. Another special case is, of course, the Bernoulli trial distribution in which the probability that a given placement be isotactic is independent of the tacticity of all other placements. A high resolution NMR spectrum can sometimes yield a quantitative determination of the concentrations of isotactic and syndiotactic placements and the concentrations of the three types of possible adjacent pairs of such placements (i.e., isotactic, syndiotactic, and heterotactic pairs). When this is the case, the spectrum can be used to determine whether or not a given diastereosequence distribution is Bernoullian. However, because the longest diastereosequences whose concentration can be measured by NMR spectroscopy involve only two placements, an NMR spectrum cannot check whether a given non-Bernoullian distribution be simple Markoffian or Markoffian in general. In fact, non-Markoffian distributions are compatible with existing NMR spectra on polymers prepared by anionic polymerizations. In this paper we work within the framework of Kac's theory of stationary statistical processes and point out some general results which are valid for both Markoffian and non-Markoffian processes. The results are applied to NMR spectroscopy and it is pointed out which calculations used to check the self-consistency of NMR data and to obtain the mean length of closed diastereosequences are valid for both Markoffian and non-Markoffian distributions.

    Description / Table of Contents: Increasing of wear resistance of Ti-6Al-4V alloy by nitrogen implantationNitrogen ion implantation is used to improve the wear resistance of Ti-6Al-4V alloy. Different implantation doses up to 1 · 1018N+/cm2 and E = 170 KeV were used. The unimplanted and the implanted specimens were tested in a wear model system with oscillation loading. The results show, that the wear performance was influenced by implantation dose and also by mean pressure. It was found, that surfaces, which are produced by a high implantation dose (1 · 1018N+/cm2), exhibited greater were resistance than untreated Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The best wear behaviour was achieved by a high implantation dose (1 · 1018N+/cm2) and a low mean pressure (p =0.22 MPa) at the wear test. The difference between the wear rate of the untreated and of the implantated specimen can obtain a factor about 10. The effective depth of the implantation action is greater than the penetration depth of the nitrogen ions.
    Notes: Durch Implantation von Stickstoff-Ionen wurde die Randschicht der Ti-Al6-V4-Legierung mit dem Ziel der Verbesserung des Verschleißverhaltens modifiziert. Es wurde dazu mit unterschiedlichen Stickstoffdosen bis 1 · 1018N+/cm2 bei E = 170 keV implantiert. Die Modellverschleißuntersuchungen bei oszillierender Beanspruchung wiesen nach, daß die Implantationsdosis in Abhängigkeit von der im Tribosystem wirkenden mittleren Pressung den Verschleiß deutlich beeinflußt. Wird mit einer hohen Dosis (1 ·1018N+/cm2) implantiert und werden die Beanspruchungsbedingungen so gewählt, daß nur eine relativ geringe Pressung von p ≤ 0.22 MPa auftritt, dann ist mit einer Erhöhung der Verschleißbeständigkeit mindestens um den Faktor 10 zu rechnen. Für größere Pressungen nimmt die Erhöhung des Verschleißwiderstandes ab. Die verschleißmindernde Wirktiefe der Implantation liegt weit über der Eindringtiefe der implantierten Stickstoffionen.

    Notes: The interaction of slightly crosslinked gels of poly(diallyldimethylammonium bromide) (PDADMAB) with both the anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and the cationic surfactant cetylpyridinium bromide (CPB; system. name: N-hexadecylpyridinium bromide) in aqueous medium has been investigated. The absorption of the anionic surfactant by the oppositely charged gel leads to contraction or collapse of the network. The absorption of the cationic surfactant by the gel-SDS complexes results in a reswelling of the network. By means of IR and UV spectroscopy it has been shown that in the presence of the anionic detergent the cationic network absorbs the cationic surfactant. It has been shown that both reversible and irreversible complex formation in the gel phase is possible depending on the initial ratio between the components. Small-angle-X-ray scattering experiments demonstrated that the complexes may have a regular microstructure.

    Notes: Cyclic oligomeric carbonates are prepared by a hydrolysis/condensation reaction from aromatic bis(chloroformate)s. Three methods for convenient preparation of bis(chloroformate)s have been developed: (1) use of diethylaniline to scavenge HCl, in a modification of an earlier procedure; (2) low pH, low temperature interfacial condensation of bisphenols with phosgene; and (3) use of Ca(OH)2 in interfacial condensation with phosgene. Reaction parameters which control formation of monomeric bis(chloroformate)s versus higher oligomerization include temperature, pH, and rate of phosgene addition. For water-soluble bisphenols such as hydroquinone, the phase ratio of water to CH2Cl2 can also be important.

    Photoreactive analog of peptide FN-C/H-V from the carboxy-terminal heparin-binding domains of fibronectin supports endothelial cell adhesion and spreading on biomaterial surfaces (1996)

    Notes: The extracellular matrix protein fibronectin (FN) plays an important role in cell adhesion, spreading, and motility. Several cell-adhesion promoting domains exist within fibronectin, and peptide sequences from these domains have been shown to play an important role in cell interactions with fibronectin. Recently, a peptide sequence (FN-C/H-V) from the 33/66 kD carboxy-terminal heparin-binding domains of fibronectin was shown to promote the adhesion and spreading of vascular endothelial cells in vitro. Endothelial cell spreading on this peptide was followed by cytoskeletal reorganization, focal contact formation, and, ultimately, cell migration. In the current study, a photoreactive analog of FN-C/H-V (ASD-V) was generated using a heterobifunctional photoreactive crosslinking agent, sulfosuccinimidyl 2-(p-azidosalicylamido) ethyl-1,3′-dithio-propionate. ASD-V was then covalently coupled to polystyrene (PS) and polyethylene terephthalate film (PET) in order to assess the utility of ASD-V for preparing biomaterial surfaces with endothelial cell-adhesion promoting properties. The effects of pre-adsorption time and initial coating concentration on the efficiency of ASD-V coupling to PS and to PET were examined. Contact angle measurements and atomic force microscopy were used to characterize ASD-V-modified surfaces. Finally, the adhesion and spreading of vascular endothelial cells on ASD-V-modified surfaces was assessed. Our results suggest that photoreactive peptides are an effective and convenient means of modifying biomaterial surfaces to impart adhesion-promoting properties and that ASD-V, when coupled to PS and PET, promotes endothelial cell adhesion and spreading and may therefore be useful as a biomaterial surface modification in applications where re-endothelialization is desired (e.g., autologous endothelial seeding of vascular grafts, or transplantation of genetically engineered endothelial cells via polymer-coated stents). © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
