    Notes: Summary One hundred and thirty seven breast cancer patients with CT scan documented brain metastasis (BM) were reviewed. Occurrence of brain as first site of relapse was associated with adjuvant systemic therapy of the primary tumor. Multivariate analysis showed significantly longer survival in patients without manifest systemic disease, in patients with a solitary BM, in those with neurologic symptoms present for more than 4 weeks prior to diagnosis, and in those treated with chemotherapy after diagnosis. When controlling for prognostic factors no significant difference in survival was found between surgery and radiotherapy (RT) as treatment of a solitary lesion. Tumor size, tumor necrosis and mass effect had no demonstrable influence on survival. Overall median survival was 16 weeks and 19% survived one year. Neurologic disease was the cause of death or a major contributing factor to it in 68% of the patients, indicating the need for improvement of the treatment of BM itself. These results warrant further studies on the value of surgery, RT and chemotherapy in solitary as well as multiple BM from breast carcinoma.

    Effect of processing and storage on the ascorbic acid (vitamin C) content of some pineapple varieties grown in the Rivers State of Nigeria (1994)

    Notes: Abstract Ascorbic acid contents of the juice of four different pineapples species grown in the Rivers State of Nigeria were determined before and after storage of whole pineapple and processing and storage of the juice for two months. Ascorbic acid of the fresh juice ranged from 22.5 mg to 33.5 mg/100 g sample. After storage at room temperature (30–32 °C) of whole pineapple for two weeks, ascorbic acid was reduced to between 59 and 65 percent of the fresh juice. Processing the juice by pasteurisation reduced the ascorbic acid to between 28 and 46 percent while storage in plastic bottles for two months further reduced the ascorbic acid content to between 10 and 21 percent.
