    Notes: Summary Premature cardiovascular disease is common in insulin-dependent diabetic (IDDM) patients who develop diabetic nephropathy. Genetic polymorphism within the renin-angiotensin system has been implicated in the aetiology of a number of cardiovascular disorders; these loci are therefore candidate genes for susceptibility to diabetic renal disease. We have examined the angiotensin converting enzyme insertion/deletion polymorphism and angiotensinogen methionine 235 threonine polymorphism in a large cohort of Caucasian patients with IDDM and diabetic nephropathy. Patients were classified as having nephropathy by the presence of persistent dipstick positive proteinuria (in the absence of other causes), retinopathy and hypertension (n = 242). Three groups were examined for comparison: ethnically matched non-diabetic subjects (n = 187); a geographically defined cohort of newly diagnosed diabetic patients (n = 341); and IDDM patients with long duration of disease ( 〉 15 years) and no evidence of overt nephropathy (n = 166). No significant difference was seen in distribution of angiotensin converting enzyme or angiotensinogen genotypes between IDDM patients with nephropathy and recently diagnosed diabetic subjects (p = 0.282 and 0.584, respectively), nor the long-duration non-nephropathy diabetic subjects (p = 0.701 and 0.190, respectively). We conclude that these genetic loci are unlikely to influence susceptibility to diabetic nephropathy in IDDM in the United Kingdom. [Diabetologia (1996) 39: 1108–1114]

    Notes: Abstract Dielectric measurements of SO2 quinol clathrates show that the reorientation of encaged SO2 molecules is very rapid and depends greatly on the degree of cage occupancy. For aβ-quinol sample of cage occupancyθ = 0.57, the reorientation rate was ∼ 1 MHz at 6 K, with a reorientational activation energy of 673 J/mol. For a sample identified by13C NMR asα-quinol, and for aβ-quinol sample with most cages filled with Xe, SO2 reorientation rates are even greater, with activation energies of only some tens of J/mol. The low temperature dielectric studies show that some ethanol may be enclathrated inβ-quinol recrystallized from this solvent. The13C NMR spectra confirm the X-ray results that the lattice becomes distorted with increased SO2 content.
