    Notes: A modified version of the microwave signal processing system for the 1.5 tonne niobium bar gravitational radiation antenna at the University of Western Australia has been developed and tested during preparations for long-term observation. Among the new features of the system are a noncontacting microwave coupling to the motion transducer, cryogenic low-noise amplification, and automatic carrier suppression with improved long-term stability.

    Notes: Gravitational radiation detectors must detect extremely small displacements, and thus require elaborate vibration isolation systems to attenuate the surrounding environmental noise. Contacting electrical leads can provide a direct path that will short circuit the vibration isolation, and degrade the antenna Q factor. Noncontacting microstrip transceivers provide a practical means of electromagnetically coupling to a resonant bar gravitational antenna when a microwave transducer is used as a signal readout system. Two microwave patch antennas now operate as transceivers on the University of Western Australia's 1.5 tonne niobium bar gravitational radiation antenna and are described in detail in this paper. This system allows improved vibration isolation without degradation of the acoustic Q factor of the niobium bar. Combined with a cryogenic amplifier, this system should achieve a reduction of 57 dB in the series noise power. This corresponds to a factor of 700 reduction in the effective displacement noise when referred to the transducer, from 2×10−16 to 3×10−19 m/(square root of)Hz.

    Notes: Summary. In a prospective, randomized, cross-over study, 14 postmenopausal women completed 9 months of treatment with conjugated equine oestrogens, 1.25 mg daily. Seven women added dydrogesterone 20 mg daily for 12 days during months 2, 3 and 4, and then 10 mg daily for an identical time in months 5,6 and 7. The other seven women added the two dydrogesterone doses in reverse sequence. No dydrogesterone was taken during months 8 and 9. Lipids and lipoproteins were measured before treatment and at the end of months 4, 7 and 9. Lipids were also estimated in an untreated (reference) group of eight postmenopausal women on two occasions 6 months apart; these showed significant changes in HDL2- and HDL3-cholesterol. In the treatment group, HDL-cholesterol and apolipoprotein (apo) Al were significantly higher and LDL-cholesterol and apo B were significantly lower at months 4, 7 and 9 compared with baseline values. Triglyceride levels were increased significantly over baseline values, but remained within the normal range. No significant differences between the two dydrogesterone doses were observed on any lipid and lipoprotein fraction, nor were there any differences between the oestrogen-only and oestrogen/dydrogesterone treatment phases. Dydrogesterone appears to cause little, if any, lipid and lipoprotein changes and assessment in a larger population of postmenopausal women is warranted.

    Notes: Anxiety was assessed in younger and older adolescent athletes in an attempt to test aspects of Hanin's zone of optimal function theory. Sixty-five participants in a track and field camp completed anxiety inventories at baseline and were instructed: 1) to recall how anxious they felt prior to their best performance and 2) to predict how anxious they would feel prior to an informal meet to be held 4 days later. Actual precompetition anxiety was assessed 1 h prior to the meet. Predicted precompetition anxiety was significantly higher than baseline and actual precompetition anxiety. Mean actual precompetition anxiety was not elevated above baseline. However, 34% (22/65) of the sample experienced high levels of precompetition anxiety, and the majority of these (17/22) reported performing optimally with high anxiety. Significant correlations between predicted and actual precompetition anxiety occurred for boys, but not for girls. The differences between predicted and actual precompetition values tended to be smaller in boys than in girls. Based on this sample, it is concluded that: 1) in accordance with the zone of optimal function theory, young athletes display considerable diversity in actual and optimal precompetition anxiety values; and 2) young athletes tend to overestimate the level of anxiety they will experience prior to an easy competition.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Diese Arbeit befasst sich mit der parallelen Berechnung von Vektornormen und Skalarprodukten in Gleitkomma-Arithmetik und einer möglichen neuen Form der Computer-Arithmetik, dem “Symmetrischen Level-index System”. Die Vektornormen sind ein lehrreiches Beispiel für die Unterschiede zwischen diesen beiden arithmetischen Systemen bezüglich einer möglichen Programmierung mit (vollkommener) Robustheit und Parallelität. Der Konflikt zwischen der Robustheit der Rechnung—im Sinne von Genauigkeit und Sicherheit vor Überlauf und Unterlauf-und einer einfachen Parallelisierbarkeit von Algorithmen in einer Gleitkomma-Umgebung wird aufgezeigt. Es wird deutlich, dass dieser Konflikt bei Verwendung des “Symmetrischen Level-Index Systems” verschwindet. Der Wegfall von Überlauf und Unterlauf in diesem System gestattet die direkte Programmierung der Definitionen in einer einfachen, robusten und unmittelbar parallelisierbaren Weise. Numerische Resultate illustrieren, dass das “Level-index System” vergleichbare Genauigkeit zu Gleitkomma liefert, wen das letztere System funktioniert, und noch hohe Genauigkeit dort resultiert, wo das Gleitkomma-System völlig versagt.
    Notes: Abstract In this paper we consider the parallel computation of vector norms and inner products in floating-point and a proposed new form of computer arithmetic, the symmetric level-index system. The vector norms provide an illuminating example of the contrast between the two arithmetic systems under discussion in terms of the ability to program for (complete) robustness and parallelizability. The conflict between robustness of the computation—in the sense of the dual requirements of accuracy and freedom from overflow and underflow—and easy parallelization of the algorithms within a floating-point environment is made plain. It is seen that this conflict disappears if the symmetric level-index system of arithmetic is used. The freedom from overflow and underflow offered by this system allows the programming of the straightforward definitions in a way which is simple, robust and immediately parallelizable. Numerical results are given to illustrate the fact that the symmetric level-index system yields results of comparable accuracy to those of floating-point in cases where the latter system works and still yields results of high accuracy when the floating-point system fails altogether.

    Notes: Summary The buccal absorption of procainamide was studied in 4 normal, male volunteers over a pH range of 5–11. In another investigation the same 4 volunteers collected their urine for 24 h after taking 250 mg of procainamide hydrochloride orally on 3 separate occasions, during which urine pH was uncontrolled, acidified by ammonium chloride ingestion or alkalinised by sodium bicarbonate ingestion. The procainamide remaining after buccal absorption and present in the urine samples was determined spectrophotometrically. It was found that neither the buccal absorption nor the renal excretion of procainamide was substantially altered by changes in pH.

    Notes: Summary Taloximine is a phthalazine derivative with a respiratory stimulant action on the peripheral chemoreceptors. Peak plasma levels of taloximine after oral administration coincided with peak hyperventilation accompanied by a respiratory alkalosis, a, fall in venous pCO2, and a rise in plasma and urinary pH. — Taloximine was excreted in urine and bile. Metabolites included a phthalazinone, demethylated taloximine and other metabolites in ring hydroxylated form. Sulphated and glucuronated taloximine and metabolites were formed.
