    Notes: Abstract It is well documented that lower esophageal sphincter pressure increases significantly in response to increases in intraabdominal pressure in order to maintain the gastroesophageal barrier. The mechanism by which this response is elicited is controversial. It has been suggested that the response of the sphincter persists after the intraabdominal pressure stimulus is removed. The present study sought to define the response of the sphincter to increased intraabdominal pressure (achieved by straight leg raising) by continuously monitoring it with the Dent sleeve in a group of 10 normal volunteers. A reproducible pressure profile was observed in both the sphincter and the stomach, characterized by an initial peak, a sustained plateau, and a second peak. The pressure profiles of the stomach and the sphincter were closely approximated and peak and plateau pressures for both did not differ significantly. The onset and offset of the pressure increase were simultaneous in the stomach and the sphincter. No significant changes in sphincter pressure were noted when the rapid pull-through technique was used. This study defines the pressure profiles of the stomach and the lower esophageal sphincter zone during increased intraabdominal pressure in man. Our data suggest that the response of the sphincter is passively mediated.

    Notes: Three types of tetrone radical anions in which two 1,4-benzoquinone units are connected by ethano (1·-, 2·-), [2.2]paracyclophane (3·-, 4·-), and anthracene bridges (5·-, 6·-) have been studied by ESR and ENDOR spectroscopy. The displacement of the unpaired electron over the two π moieties in the [2.2]cyclophane radical anions 1·--4·- and the marked difference between the first and second reduction potentials, ΔE = |E20 - E10| ≥ 0.20 V, are evidence for a substantial intramolecular electronic interaction between the two electrophores. Similar ΔE data for the syn- (3) and anti-naphthalenophanes (4) indicate that most of the intramolecular electronic interaction takes place through the [2.2]paracyclophane bridge. When ion pairing is inhibited by complexation of the cation, the unpaired electron in 5·- and 6·- is also delocalized over the whole pentacenetetrone system at temperatures as low as 160 K.

    Notes: A range of [n.n]paracyclophane radical cations (4·+-12·+), in which two 2,5-dimethoxy-1,4-phenylene units are connected by alkano bridges of varying length, have been studied by ESR and ENDOR spectroscopy. In the [2.2]- and [3.3]paracyclophane radical cations 4·+-6·+, 10·+ and 11·+ the delocalization of the unpaired electron over both π-moieties and the distinct difference between the first and second oxidation potentials, ΔE = E20 - E10, are evidence for a strong intramolecular electronic interaction between the two electrophores. The [5.5] and [7.7] species (8·+ and 9·+) are localized radical cations at low temperature (ca. 220 K). At room temperature, the higher molecular flexibility leads to a significant increase in the number of internal collisions between the electrophores, resulting in a fast (ESR time scale) intramolecular electron transfer. The intermediate [4.4]paracyclophane radical cations 7·+ and 12·+ are apparently also localized radical cations. The close interplanar distance between the two π-moieties, however, facilitates their mutual contacts. In 7·+, the intramolecular electron transfer becomes fast on the ESR time scale at room temperature; in 12·+ the transfer is fast over the temperature range 200-300 K.
