    Notes: Summary The results of a prospective study of the development of hypertension and renal stone disease in subjects with increased blood urate are reported and compared with matched controls. None of the 14 patients on Allopurinol developed a renal stone but one untreated control did. For male patients there was a significant difference (p〈0.01) in diastolic blood pressure between the 2 groups over the 5-year study period, with treated patients having higher blood pressures than untreated controls. This suggests that Allopurinol has had no effect on lowering diastolic blood pressure. Long-term therapy with Allopurinol was effective in reducing mean blood urate levels. It is suggested that blood urate levels are more relevant in predicting renal stone formation and of less value in assessing the therapy and prognosis in hypertension.

    Notes: Summary The trace element content of kidneys has been documented in very few international centres. Significant differences can be demonstrated between the cortical and medullary levels of calcium, zinc and cadmium. For the West of Scotland the values for the latter are similar to those found in Scandinavia. There are significantly higher cadmium contents in subjects who smoke and who have evidence of ischaemic heart disease.

    Notes: Abstract Progress in the development of a system to provide sensory feedback of the pinch force of an artificial hand is described. Design criteria relating to electrocutaneous stimulation and compatibility with myoelectric control are discussed. Details of a practical system, presently in use by two amputees prior to full-scale clinical evaluation, are presented.

    Notes: Abstract A myoelectric control system is one in which the operation of a device is controlled by the electric potential produced by voluntary contraction of a muscle. The utilisation of a single muscle site for the 3-state control of a myoelectric prosthesis has proven beneficial for certain amputees. It has been proposed that a single muscle site could be used for 5-state control, perhaps for an elbow and hand. This paper presents a preliminary study of the error probability for 5-state control.
