    Notes: Abstract The present study was designed to determine whether there is a causal relationship between noise-induced hypertension and changes of endothelial function. Rats were exposed to noise stress (100 dB, 1 kHz, 4 h/day, 6 days/week) for 1–4 weeks. The systolic blood pressure was significantly increased after rats were exposed to noise stress for 3 weeks. The relaxant responses of isolated mesenteric arterial rings to endothelium-dependent vasodilators (A23187 and acetylcholine) in noise-treated rats were significantly less than those in control rats. This difference in response to acetylcholine still existed in the presence of methylene blue or Nω-nitro-L-arginine. On the other hand, the responses to the endothelium-independent vasodilator nitroglycerin were not affected in rats exposed to noise stress. The attenuation to endothelium-dependent vasodilators during noise stress may result in increasing peripheral vascular resistance and thus elevate blood pressure. This indicates that noise-induced hypertension may be partly due to the alterations of endothelial activity.

    Notes: Abstract. Constrictive pericarditis is rare in children. We report computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in a 3-year-old girl. She had a swollen abdomen that increased in two months. CT and MRI showed a thickened pericardium (5.2 mm) without calcification. Both atria were enlarged and ventricles were relatively small. The engorged inferior vena cava had 2.8× the diameter of the descending aorta at the same level. Symptoms were dramatically improved after pericardiectomy. The histopathological features confirmed chronic pericarditis.

    Notes: Abstract Displacement potentials in linear static elasticity consist of three functions which can be regarded as the three components of a vector, e.g., the Galerkin vector. This research note gives an explanation as to why the biharmonic equations govern these functions in isotropic elasticity as opposed to the sixth-order partial differential equations that govern them in anisotropic elasticity. This note also shows that the Eshelby solution in two-dimensional anisotropic elasticity can be derived from the method of displacement potentials.
