    Notes: Summary The aim of this study was to evaluate the geographic variation in mortality among individuals with youth-onset insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) across the world. The study was based on the currently available IDDM incidence and mortality data. Mortality data for diabetes in the 0–24 year age group were obtained from World Health Organization (WHO) statistics. The mortality rates were adjusted for the frequency of occurrence of IDDM by dividing the mortality rates by the IDDM incidence rates which were obtained from the WHO DiaMond project. There was a more than 10-fold geographic variation in mortality between the developed countries and Eastern European populations. The areas with the highest mortality rates were located in Japan, Eastern Europe and Russia. The areas having the best outcome associated with IDDM were Northern Europe, Central Europe, and Canada. An ecological study demonstrated a relationship between the incidence-adjusted mortality (estimated case-fatality) with IDDM incidence itself (Spearman's correlation coefficient = –0.45) as well as infant mortality and life expectancy at birth. These data demonstrated the possibility of an enormous geographic variation in mortality of youth-onset diabetic patients even in developed countries. It is important to note that these excess deaths are potentially preventable. The ecological study also suggested that the mortality differences may be in part related to overall and diabetes related care. [Diabetologia (1997) 40: 212–216]

    Notes: Summary The aim of this population-based, one-to-one matched-pair case-control study was to evaluate the factors concerning the markedly increased risk for dying among Japanese subjects with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) from a social and behavioural perspective. The study was based on the population-based cohort of IDDM subjects in the Diabetes Epidemiology Research International Mortality Study. We studied 90 cases who died and 90 living control subjects, selected from the rest of the cohort, who were matched for sex, birth year, year of diagnosis and duration of diabetes. Socioeconomic and behavioural status were surveyed through a questionnaire. Conditional logistic regression analyses based on 55 respondent pairs revealed that the better educated patients (year of completing education: odds ratio = 0.66) who kept the same physician (number of times a patient changed physician: odds ratio = 2.77) and who attended a clinic specializing in diabetes (attendance at university hospital clinic: odds ratio = 0.18) injecting insulin several times a day (number of injections, odds ratio = 0.31) and more frequently attending the clinic (≥ 12 times per year, odds ratio = 0.23) were at substantially lower risk of death. The results begin to profile the patients with the highest risk of dying who could be identified earlier and undergo intervention treatment. [Diabetologia (1996) 39: 710–716]

    Notes: New resist systems based on acid-catalyzed, electrophilic aromatic substitution are described. These new resists show high sensitivity to deep UV and E-beam radiation with values approaching 2 mJ/cm2 and 2 μC/cm2, respectively. The resists are based on a three component system consisting of poly(4-hydroxystyrene), a polyfunctional, low molecular weight, latent electrophile, and a photoactive onium salt used as an acid generator. Irradiation of the resist film produces a latent image of acid dispersed in the matrix. During the postbaking step the photo-generated acid reacts with the latent polyfunctional electrophile and releases a reactive carbocationic intermediate with concomitant liberation of acetic acid. The carbocationic intermediate then reacts with neighboring phenolic moieties in a crosslinking reaction. The substitution reaction liberates a proton, making the process catalytic in nature, thus incorporating the concept of chemical amplification. These highly sensitive materials can be used as nonswelling negative multipurpose resists that function in deep-UV, x-ray or E-beam modes. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A new carbon fiber was prepared from the lignin (steam-exploded lignin), which was isolated from steam-exploded birch wood (Betula platyphylla). The lignin was modified to melt thermally on hydrogenolysis. The chloroform soluble and carbon disulfide insoluble fraction (HL) of the reaction products was heated at 300-350°C for 30 min, giving a molten viscous material (HHL). The HHL had a softening point of 110°C and melted at over 145°C to form viscous liquid. When HHL was subjected to a spinning test, according to a conventional fusion spinning method at a speed over 100 m/min, a fine filament could be continuously formed through a pinhole (diameter: 0.3 mm). After the filaments were heated in air at 1-2°C/min up to 210°C, by which time the filament was converted to have an infusible property, the filaments were carbonized by heating from a room temperature to 1000°C at a heating rate of 5°C/min in a stream of nitrogen. The typical properties of the lignin based carbon fiber were as follows: Fiber diameter = 7.6 ± 2.7μ Elongation = 1.63 ± 0.29% Tensile strength = 660 ± 230 MPa; Modulus of elasticity = 40.7 ± 6.3 GPa. The chemical structure of the precursor was remarkably changed from that of the original lignin, indicating the elimination of aliphatic functional groups implied originally in the starting material.

    Notes: A lignin-pitch for carbon fiber was prepared in a high yield from exploded lignin on phenolysis followed by heat treatment under a vacuum. The lignin-pitch had an excellent spinnability in the melt state to form a fine filament. The green fibers were easily made infusible when heated in air at a relatively high heating rate (15-60°C/h). The lignin-based carbon fiber was produced in 43.7% of yield based on a starting material. The tensile strength was more than 400 MPa, indicating that the lignin-based carbon fiber is classified into a general purpose grade. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Commercial cellulase preparations from Trichoderma viride and Aspergillus niger were immobilized on porous silica glass and ceramics such as alumina and titania with titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4) and on their silanized derivatives with glutaraldehyde (GLUT). The amounts of the immobilized enzymes were in the range 10-50 mg/g carrier (dry) depending on the kind of carrier and immobilization method. Their activities toward carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), xylan, aryl-β-glucoside, and aryl-β-xyloside were 3-53% of those of the native enzymes. The optimum pH of the enzymes shifted to the acidic side in most cases, whereas the optimum temperatures were nearly the same as those of native ones. The activity of immobilized enzyme preparations towards CMC did not change significantly during continuous operation over a periods of 60 days. Finally, xylan was hydrolyzed with the immobilized enzymes, and the sugars formed were investigated.

    Notes: Zirconia has received special attention, mainly because of its high strength and toughness. However, there is some controversy about the time-dependent deterioration of its mechanical properties. To examine the change in mechanical properties of zirconia ceramics in vivo and in vitro, tetragonal zirconia polycrystal pieces were introduced into the medullary cavity of the tibia in Japanese rabbits and animals were sacrificed after 2, 4 and 6 weeks and 6, 12, and 30 mo, respectively. Alumina ceramic and hydroxyapatite (HAP) pieces were used as controls to investigate the differences in biocompatibility. Zirconia showed a bending strength of over 1000 MPa initially, and little time-dependent change in strength was found in both in vivo environments. x-Ray analysis showed little change in the transformation rate, i.e., less than 5 mol % in vivo and in vitro over a period of 3 years. To estimate time-dependent changes in zirconia over a longer period, zirconia pieces were placed in 95°C saline solution for over 3 years and their mechanical properties examined at chosen intervals. No serious decrease of bending strength was found over the 3-year period under these conditions. It is concluded that zirconia can be used clinically because it retains a bending strength of over 700 MPa under any experimental conditions for over 3 years. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
