    Notes: Summary The Plastimed® epidural pressure sensor was evaluated in 35 patients, twenty-eight of whom were suffering from head injury. In seven patients simultaneous intraventricular pressure measurements were obtained. The epidural pressure sensor was only functioning satisfactorily in approximately 2/3 of the patients, while it was malfunctioning or not functioning in the remainder. In seven comparable IVP/EDP studies significant differences up to 25 mm Hg were noted. In three patients IVP was greater than EDP. In two patients the opposite was true. No significant complications were observed. These unsatisfactory results have made us abandon the technique and resort to intraventricular or subarachnoidal pressure measurements.

    Notes: Abstract  The responses of 34 extensor-carpi-radialis motor units to graded transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and electrical stimulation of the radial nerve were investigated in six human subjects. Simultaneously with the recording of the single motor-unit discharges, motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) and H-reflexes evoked by the two types of stimulation were recorded by surface electrodes and expressed as a percentage of the maximal motor response (Mmax). Ten motor units were activated in the H-reflex when it was less than 5% of Mmax, but not in the MEP even when it was 15% of Mmax. The opposite was observed for three motor units. Eleven motor units were recruited by both stimuli, but with significantly different recruitment thresholds. Only ten motor units had a threshold similar to TMS and radial nerve stimulation. From these observations, we suggest that caution should be taken when making conclusions regarding motor cortical excitability based on changes in the size of MEPs, even when it is ensured that there are no similar changes in background EMG-activity or H-reflexes.

    Notes: Experimental measurements of the relative intensity of the escape peak produced in an intrinsic Ge detector agree quite well with the calculated intensities based on a theoretical model. Contrary to the Si(Li) detector Kα as well as Kβ escape peaks are observed. In the energy region 11-25 keV the Ge Kα escape peak intensities vary from 16.3 to 4.7% and the Ge Kβ escape peak from 2.4 to 0.9% of that to the parent line. Therefore, the escape peaks are not negligible in X-ray fluorescence analysis, and it may be necessary to numerically correct for them or, by a suitable choice of excitation energy, avoid them completely.
