    Notes: Abstract The chromosomes of the diploid Hyla chrysoscelis and its tetraploid sibling species H. versicolor were studied with AgNO3 staining and in situ hybridization to determine the chromosome location of the 18S and 28S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. A total of 236 Hyla chrysoscelis from 34 localities in 15 U.S. states and 100 H. versicolor from 15 localities in 12 states were examined. The rRNA gene sites were extremely variable in H. chrysoscelis, and also variable, but to a lesser extent, in H. versicolor. The most common rRNA gene site in both H. chrysoscelis and H. versicolor was on the short arm of chromosome 6. All of the rRNA gene locations seen in H. versicolor were also seen in H. chrysoscelis, supporting the hypothesis that the tetraploid H. versicolor arose from H. chrysoscelis. Although polymorphic rRNA gene sites in H. versicolor may reflect the positions of the rRNA genes in H. chrysoscelis ancestors, the origin of the extreme variability of such sites in H. chrysoscelis seems more obscure. Possible explanations include inversions, translocations, mobile genetic elements or a combination of some or all of these.

    Notes: Summary The antihypertensive efficacy of a new long-lasting vasodilator, cadralazine, and the diuretic chlorthalidone have been compared in hypertensive patients receiving concurrent treatment with atenolol. After a 4-week run-in period with atenolol alone 100 mg/day, two groups of 10 patients whose diastolic blood pressure exceeded 100 mm Hg were given for a period of 65 days either cadralazine 15 mg/day or chlorthalidone 25 mg/day, according to a randomized, double-blind, between-patients design. Compared to atenolol alone, both cadralazine and chlorthalidone induced a statistically and clinically significant decrease in blood pressure. The antihypertensive effect did not differ significantly between groups. Good compensation of the atenolol-induced decrease in heart rate was obtained with cadralazine, whereas during atenolol + chlorthalidone treatment at times the standing heart rate was significantly lower than during treatment with atenolol + cadralazine. Side-effects, many of which were already present during atenolol treatment, occurred with a similar frequency in both groups. It is concluded that atenolol + cadralazine and atenolol + chlorthalidone are equally well tolerated, acceptable and effective in the treatment of hypertension, but that further studies are warranted to explore the potential haemodynamic advantages of the cadralazine + atenolol combination.

    Notes: Summary Genomic DNA from 49 Italian patients affected with severe haemophilia A was analysed by Southern blotting technique using a cDNA probe corresponding to exons 14–26 of coagulation factor VIII. No TaqI site mutation was observed in this sample. A partial deletion, eliminating exons 15–18 and spanning about 13 kb, was identified and characterized in one patient with anti-factor VIII antibodies.

    Notes: Summary One of the earliest biochemical effects induced by the herbicide paraquat (PQ) is damage to type II pneumocytes with consequent depletion of surfactant (Skillrud and Martin, 1984). We made a series of studies on the possible protective effect of drug ambroxol, which induces surfactant synthesis from alveolar type II cells (Post et al. 1983). The cell line A-549, exposedin vitro to PQ concentrations ranging from 0.5×10-4 to 2×10-3 M, showed a significant dose-dependent loss of viability. Ambroxol (10 mg/ml) pretreated cells were more resistant to PQ, their viability starting to decrease from a PQ concentration of 0.8×10-3 M. Membrane microviscosity was measured on the same cells. Cells treated with PQ alone showed a reduction of membrane microviscosity which was significantly counteracted by ambroxol pretreatment. The curves for membrane microviscosity of PQ and ambroxol-plus-PQ-treated cells overlapped those for cell viability, indicating that the stimulation of surfactant synthesisin vitro may be a prerequisite for counteracting some of the precocious effects of PQ. Partial protection from PQ- induced mortality was also obtainedin vivo.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Bedeutung der Familie als Faktor für die Ausbreitung der HCV-Infektion wird immer noch kontrovers diskutiert. In der vorliegenden Studie wurde versucht, die Prävalenz anti-HCV-positiver Fälle unter den häuslichen Kontaktpersonen von Patienten mit HCV-assoziierter chronischer Hepatitis zu bestimmen. Nahezu alle Kontaktpersonen von 113 Personen mit anti-HCV-positiver Hepatitis (100/113 Ehegatten, 260/290 Kinder) wurden untersucht. Für die Bestimmung von anti-HCV wurde ELISA-II mit Bestätigung durch RIBA II eingesetzt. 27% der Ehegatten und 1,9% der Kinder erwiesen sich als anti-HCV-positiv. Bei den Gatten korrelierte die Prävalenz der anti-HCV-Positivität mit der Dauer der Ehe. Bei 17/32 (53,1%) der anti-HCV-positiven Personen wurde eine chronische Hepatitis aufgedeckt. Diese Studie gibt Hinweise auf eine vorwiegend horizontale Übertragung der HCV-Infektion zwischen Ehegatten und eine positive Korrelation zwischen Übertragung und Dauer der Ehe.
    Notes: Summary It is still controversial whether the familial environment plays a role in the diffusion of HCV infection. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of anti-HCV positivity in the household contacts of patients with HCV-related chronic hepatitis. Nearly all the household contacts of 113 subjects with anti-HCV+ chronic hepatitis (100/113 spouses and 260/290 children) were investigated. Anti-HCV was determined by means of ELISA II and was confirmed by RIBA II. Anti-HCV positivity was found in 27% of the spouses and in 1.9% of the children. Prevalence of anti-HCV positivity in spouses correlated positively with the duration of the marital status. Seventeen/32 (53.1%) of anti-HCV-positive subjects were found to have chronic hepatitis. This study indicates that intrafamilial diffusion of HCV infection is mostly accounted for by horizontal, in particular spouse to spouse, transmission and that spouse to spouse transmission of HCV infection correlates positively with the duration of marital status.

    Notes: Abstract The production cross sections of7Li in its ground and first excited states have been measured at 14°, 120°, 150°, for the 742 MeV20Ne+60Ni reaction. Hauser-Feshbach calculations show that the backward angle data are consistent with an emission temperature greater than 6 MeV. This is in agreement with the values extracted from the slope of the energy spectra and indicates that the emitting source is equilibrated.

    Notes: Abstract The28Si+64Ni reaction at 163.8 MeV incident energy is studied by measuring in coincidenceγ-rays and charged particles identified from Z=2 to Z=16. The transition from quasi-elastic to more damped reactions is observed when the difference between the detected charge and the projectile one is increased. The strong influence of the particle decay on the measuredγ-ray multiplicity is evidenced with the help of the statistical model computer code CASCADE. Dissipative events are well described in the rolling limit with excitation energy equally shared between the fragments. The overall agreement is lost for the fragments with the projectile charge which show a small value of theγ-multiplicity even for dissipative events. This is probably connected with the previously observed non statistical behavior of gamma rays emitted in coincidence with projectile-like fragments. In the alpha-spectrum measured in coincidence with gamma-rays, the deexcitation of fused systems is clearly separated from in flight emission of deep inelastic fragments. The low measured gamma-ray multiplicity for fusion events is qualitatively explained taking into account the effect of alpha-emission in the statistical decay.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die physikalischen Eigenschaften von Polymercompositen, die durch Mischung des kristallinen, bioabbaubaren und bioverträglichen Polymers Poly-D( - )(3-hydroxybutyrat) (PHB) mit nichtkristallinem, ataktischen Poly(epichlorhydrin) (PECH) erhalten wurden, werden untersucht. Die durch Eindampfen von Lösungen hergestellten PHB/PECH-Mischungen wurden mit Hilfe von thermomechanischen, röntgenographischen und viskolastischen Messungen sowie durch ihr Festigkeits- und Dehnungsverhalten charakterisiert. Aus den Ergebnissen wurde geschlossen, daß die kristallinen Bereiche des PHB die Rolle von Vernetzungen spielen, während das zwischen den kristallinen Bereichen befindliche amorphe PECH als Weichmacher wirkt. Ein einfacher dynamischer Verlustmodul, der der Glasübergangstemperatur entspricht, weist auf die Mischbarkeit des kristallinen PHB mit dem amorphen PECH hin.
    Notes: Physical properties of a new polymer blend obtained by mixing poly-D( - )(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB), a crystalline polymer with interesting properties of biodegradability and biocompatibility, with uncrystallizable atactic poly(epichlorohydrin) (PECH) were studied. PHB/PECH blends, obtained by casting solution, were analysed by thermomechanical and X-ray analysis, viscoelastic measurements, and on the basis of strength and elongation measurements. It was concluded that the crystalline region of PHB plays an important role of crosslinks, and amorphous PECH filled between the crystalline regions plays a role of plasticizer. A single dynamic loss modulus, corresponding to the glass transition temperature, implies the miscibility between crystalline PHB and amorphous PECH.
