    Notes: Summary MRI-autopsy correlation in a case of gliomatosis cerebri suggests that poor gray-white matter demarcation on MRI may be sign of neoplastic infiltration. The extent of infiltration is imperfectly assessed by current imaging modalities.

    Notes: Abstract Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is a white matter inflammatory disease which usually follows a viral infection or pharmaceutical intervention. We describe a case of presumed ADEM in a heart/lung transplant patient, the etiology of which cannot be elucidated. The fascinating aspect is the mode of clinical presentation and the rapid resolution of radiologic abnormalities. Histologic examination of the brain is provided in an attempt to elucidate the radiographic abnormalities.

    Notes: Summary We studied the signal and enhancement characteristics of the central skull base prospectively in 40 children aged 13 days to 8 years, on a 1.5 T MRI system. Identical standard short TR/TE spin echo sequences in the sagittal plane were performed before and after intravenous gadolinium-DTPA. The sequences used for comparison were filmed at identical window and level settings. Three independent observers assessed (1) the intensity of contrast enhancement of the basisphenoid, basiocciput and presphenoid, (2) the signal intensity of the spheno-occipital synchondrosis, (3) the degree of pneumatization of the sphenoid sinus and (4) the uniformity of signal intensity reflecting fatty replacement of the marrow of the basisphenoid, basiocciput and presphenoid. In 16% and 28% respectively of cases there was no enhancement of the basisphenoid and basiocciput after gadolinium administration; in 42% and 44% there was mild enhancement, and moderate or intense enhancement was observed in 42% and 28% of cases. Even when there was irregular fatty replacement, residual hemopoietic clements could enhance intensely. When skull base neoplasms are being investigated, the normal signal irregularity and enhancement of the central skull base in children must not be confused with pathologic invasion of the marrow.

    Notes: Summary We retrospectively reviewed the findings in 655 consecutive young patients who underwent contrastenhanced MR examinations (1.5T) of the head or spine. Their ages ranged from 4 months to 20 years (mean 10 years). There was a 1.7% incidence of minor adverse reactions to gadolinium (Gd)-DTPA, none of which required treatment; no serious adverse reactions were encountered. Based on the radiologic diagnosis the patients were divided into three groups: (1) normal, (2) CNS neoplasm, (3) abnormal but not neoplasm. There were 178 patients thought to have CNS neoplasms and of these 156 (88%) enhanced. Of 124 histologically confirmed neoplasms 115 (93%) showed enhancement after Gd-DTPA. Eight children had histologically confirmed spinal neoplasms; 5 of 6 neurofibromas and 2 ependymomas enhanced. In the 216 patients with abnormalities thought not to be neoplastic, the enhancement rate was 11%; most of the enhancing lesions were vascular malformations. There were very few examples of inflammatory disease, acute trauma or stroke among our patients.

    Notes: Metathesis ring opening polymerization has been used to copolymerize norbornene and 7,8-bis(trifluoromethyl)tricyclo[4,2,2,02,5]deca-3,7,9-triene. Subsequent thermal elimination of the precursor copolymers yielded acetylene-norbornene copolymers. The undoped copolymers were found to have electrical conductivity, spin concentration, and EPR linewidths which vary with composition. The location of the trans-C—H out-of-plane vibration, however, was invariant at 1010cm-1 indicating that conjugation length of n 〉 4 are present even at 40% acetylene content in the copolymer. The copolymers containing 79 mol % of acetylene units attained a doped conductivity of 0.02 S/cm with a dopant concentration of 6 mol % of I3- per sp2 carbon.

    Description / Table of Contents: Anisotropy Effects in Copper Alloy Strip MaterialsThe textures and effects of mechanical anisotropy have been measured in several copper alloy strip materials with commercial hardness levels. In most cases mixed textures have been found with a qualitative correlation to the mechanical effects.The optimum position for spring elements proved to be transverse to rolling direction, especially the relation of the elastic limit in bonding to yield strength has a maximum in this direction.
    Notes: Bei Bändern aus verschiedenen Kupferlegierungen in handelsüblichen Festigkeitszuständen wurden die Texturen und die mechanischen Anisotropieeffekte gemessen. In den meisten Fällen wurden Mischtexturen festgestellt, welche die mechanischen Anisotropieeffekte qualitativ erklären.Für Federelemente ist die Querlage die günstigste, insbesondere ist in dieser Richtung das Verhältnis Federbiegegrenze zu Streckgrenze am höchsten.

    Notes: Investigations on the lattice constants and the calculation of domain sizes and mean squared lattice strains have been presented for PVD-TiN coatings of various thickness on the substrates 52 100 and M2. Constant dependencies have been observed for the lattice constants, domain sizes and lattice strains as a function of the coating thickness. The two different substrate materials have no influence on the mentioned properties.

    Notes: Thermal stabilities of eighteen model compounds related structurally to thermostable polymer systems were determined accurately by pyrolysis-gas chromatography. This approach offers distinct advantages over previously used indirect methods which measure parameters other than actual starting material remaining undecomposed. Both the oxadiazole ring and the aromatic amide link were found to have poor thermal stabilities in comparison with other compounds studied. Since polymers based on these two features have been shown to be valuable for use in air at 200-400°C., the data suggest that oxidation resistance rather than the ultimate in pure thermal resistance should be sought in all-purpose thermostable materials.

    Notes: Reduced (4-O-methyl-D-glucurono)-D-xylan and nine methylglycosides related to this polysacharide were studied by dynamic and isothermal thermogravimetry. It could be stated from the results that the thermal stability of saccharides is increasing with increasing number of pyranose units. The models related to (4-O-methyl-D-glucurono)-D-xylan are more thermally stable than the corresponding hexoglycanic models. Rates of gasification of models containing uronic acid methylesters are higher than those of neutral methylglycosides. The rate of polysaccharide gasification was the highest one from all models studied. The supramolecular structure of polysaccharide is dramatically influencing the course of thermal degradation.

    Notes: Clinical usage of bioprosthetic heart valves (BPHVs) fabricated from glutaraldehyde-pretreated porcine aortic valves is restricted due to calcification-related failure. We previously reported a highly efficacious ethanol pretreatment of BPHVs for the prevention of cuspal calcification. The aim of the present study is to extend our understanding of the material changes brought about by ethanol and the relationship of these material effects to the ethanol pretreatment anticalcification mechanism. Glutaraldehyde-crosslinked porcine aortic valve cusps (control and ethanol-pretreated) were studied for the effects of ethanol on tissue water content and for spin-lattice relaxation times (T1) using solid state proton NMR. Cusp samples were studied for protein conformational changes due to ethanol by ATR-FTIR spectroscopy. The changes in cuspal tissue-cholesterol (in vitro) interactions also were studied. Cusp material stability was assessed in terms of residual glutaraldehyde content and collagenase degradation. Water content of the cusp samples was decreased significantly due to ethanol pretreatment. The cuspal collagen conformational changes (per infrared spectroscopy) brought about by ethanol pretreatment were persistent even after rat subdermal implantation of cusp samples for 7 days. In vitro cholesterol uptake by cusps was greatly reduced as a result of ethanol pretreatment. Ethanol pretreatment of cusps also resulted in increased resistance to collagenase digestion. Cuspal glutaraldehyde content was not changed by ethanol pretreatment. We conclude that ethanol pretreatment of bioprosthetic heart valve cusps causes multi-component effects on the tissue/material and macromolecular characteristics, which partly may explain the ethanol-pretreatment anticalcification mechanism. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
