    Notes: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the disc positions of temporomandibular joints (TMJ), the vertical and lateral mandibular displacement (VMD and LMD, respectively) and age in female adolescents with signs and symptoms of the temporomandibular disorders (TMD). The VMD and LMD were assessed, using posteroanterior (PA) cephalograms. The disc positions were assessed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and categorized as follows: normal disc position, functional disc displacement and functional disc dislocation. Excluding patients with osteoarthritis, the total number of subjects was 54 female adolescents who were grouped into three: the bilateral normal disc position group, the unilateral or bilateral functional disc displacement group, and the unilateral or bilateral functional disc dislocation group. We compared the extent of VMD and LMD between the three groups, and investigated their correlation with age. Results indicate that functional disc displacement and dislocation are related to mandibular displacement, and VMD did not correlate with age but LMD did correlate with age. This study suggests that the onset of disc displacement is related to the mandibular displacement and disturbs normal growth of the mandible three-dimensionally.

    Notes: Differences in molecular weights and partial amino acid sequences of connectin(titin) were determined for cattle, pig and chicken skeletal muscles. Peptide mapping analysis results differed according to animal species. Amino acid sequences deduced from partial nucleotide sequences of connectin also differed according to animal species at immunoglobulin-like (Ig) and fibronectin type 3 (FN3) domains. In chicken, the molecular weight of connectin from leg muscles was higher than that from pectoral muscles. Differences in meat texture and conditioning may relate to connectin and extent of its breakdown.

    Notes: Abstract The purpose of this study was to determine whether use of transmitted laser light would enable a better assessment of human pulpal vitality than back-scattered light does (LDF: laser Doppler flowmetry). The experiments were carried out on ten upper central incisors in six subjects aged 23–28 years; five of the teeth were vital with no restoration, and five were non-vital. For use with transmitted laser light, the fibers within the probe of a conventional LDF apparatus were used, one for transmitting light onto the buccal surface, the other for receiving it at the palatal surface of the same tooth. For LDF, the probe was fixed at the buccal surface. Blood flow was measured at three different locations on each experimental tooth: the incisal third, the center and the cervical third of the tooth crown. In non-vital teeth, 1) output signals with transmitted laser light all registered zero, and no oscillation could be seen in recordings from any location on the tooth, but 2) LDF signals were above zero, there were regular oscillations related to heart rate, and passive increases in blood flow (corresponding to blood pressure increases) were recorded from both the center and the cervical third of the tooth, indicating that LDF registered blood flow of non-pulpal origin. In vital teeth, LDF signals were significantly higher than in non-vital teeth at each location on the tooth. At the central site on vital teeth, the output signals for transmitted laser light were about twice those seen with LDF, and passive blood flow changes corresponding to blood pressure increases were more clearly observed. These results indicated that transmitted laser light would be useful for the assessment of tooth pulp vitality both because the blood flow signals did not include flow of non-pulpal origin, and because its output signals and response to blood flow changes were clear and could easily be monitored.

    Notes: summary  The efficacy of nitrous oxide (N2O) inhalation on the elevated orofacial muscle tonus during dental treatment in patients with cerebral palsy (CP) was studied by measuring the mean frequency of electromyographic (EMG) discharge, blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) taking mentally retarded patients (MR) as a control. At a pre-treatment stage, the mean frequency of the EMG was higher in the CP patients than in the MR patients. By forcing the jaw open, the mean frequency of the EMG, BP and HR was elevated significantly in both types of patients. The enhanced level of the mean frequency of the EMG was higher in the CP patients than in the MR patients. After inhalation of N2O, the mean frequency was reduced significantly in both types of patients, however, the reduction rate was higher in the CP patients than the MR patients; BP and HR were not affected. These results demonstrate the selective efficacy of N2O in reducing the orofacial muscle tonus in CP patients during dental treatment probably because of the N2O inhibiting the function of the central nervous system. The present study therefore suggests the beneficial properties of N2O induced sedation performed during dental treatment on CP patients.

    Notes: A mixed culture (Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus) was inoculated into reconstituted skim milk and incubated. When 0.45 Unit/g or more of lactoperoxidase (LPO) was added, the yogurts had softer and smoother texture than untreated yogurt. The apparent viscosity of yogurt was also reduced by addition of LPO. The storage modulus (G') of the gel of LPO-treated yogurt decreased but the frequency-dependency remained unchanged. The amount of exopolysaccharide or degree of proteolysis in yogurt was not changed by addition of LPO.

    Notes: Abstract The purpose of this study was to determine the perioperative factors that influence patient and graft outcome in living-related liver transplantation (LRLT). Between April 1995 and October 1998, we performed a series of 46 LRLT procedures, including 11 adult cased, at our institute. Mean age and weight of the recipients were 12.0 ± 2.3 years and 23.7 ± 2.6 kg, respectively. Seven out of the 46 patients had renal failure and received hemodialysis therapy before and after LRLT or kidney transplantation. The recipients were divided into two groups: those who survived for 7–48 months after LRLT (group 1, n = 36), and those who died within 4 months after surgery (group 2, n = 10). Factors analyzed included recipient age and weight, graft/recipient body weight ratio (G/R ratio), emergent vs elective surgery, United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) status, presence of preoperative plasmapheresis (PEX) and renal failure, and so on. Recipients in group 1 compared with group 2 had less advanced liver disease (i. e., a lower rate of emergent surgery, 14 % vs 50 %, and fewer patients with UNOS status 1, 14 % versus 70 %; P 〈 0.05 and P 〈 0.001, respectively). Group 1 recipients also had a lower percentage of preoperative treatment with plasmapheresis (22 % vs 70 %, P 〈 0.01). However, neither the G/R ratio nor the presence of renal failure affected the patient survival rate. In conclusion, factors independently associated with reduced patient survival after LRLT include emergent surgery, Child-Pugh class, UNOS status 1, and preoperative plasmapheresis.

    Notes: Abstract The distributions of cathepsin B (CB) a lysosomal cysteine proteinase, type IV collagen (CIV) and laminin (LM), which are main components of basement membranes (BMs) were studied in a series of 64 human lung adenocarcinomas using an immunohistochemical technique. Over-expression of CB (〉80% positive cells) was significantly associated with the grade of tumour differentiation (p〈0.01), with lymph node metastasis (p〈0.01) and with BM degradation (p〈0.01) detected by the staining pattern of CIV and LM. It was significantly associated with a prognostic disadvantage (p〈0.01). The immunohistochemical staining pattern of CB has a close relationship with degradation of BM, and may be used as a marker for tumour metastasis and prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma.
