    Notes: Seventeen adult beagle dogs with moderate to severe periodontitis were examined at time zero and after a 6 month pretreatment period for plaque accumulation, gingival inflammation, and rate of alveolar bone loss. The dogs were then divided into three groups. One group was the untreated controls, one group received tetracycline HCl 250 mg daily, and one group received tetracycline HCl 500 mg daily. Plaque accumulation, gingival inflammation, and rate of alveolar bone loss in each group over a 12 month treatment period was compared to the pretreatment baseline values in each group.There was no significant difference in either the mean plaque accumulation or gingival inflammation over the 12 month treatment period in the untreated control dogs or the tetracycline treated dogs. The untreated control dogs lost alveolar bone in the treatment period at a rate similar to the pretreatment period. In the dogs treated with 250 and with 500 mg tetracycline HCl there was a statistically significant decrease in the rate of alveolar bone loss in the treatment period when compared to the pretreatment period.The findings suggest that daily tetracycline in either a 250 or 500 mg dose does not affect accumulation of bacterial plaque or severity of gingival inflammation in the beagle dogs studied. Tetracycline administration does significantly decrease the rate of alveolar bone loss in the treated animals for a 12 month period. An additional report will detail the subsequent 12 months of treatment in which tetracycline loses its ability to reduce the rate of alveolar bone loss.

    Notes: The flora of periodontal pockets 〈 6 mm and the rate of alveolar bone loss of one diseased site in each of eighteen adult beagle dogs were compared during a 6 month pretreatment period and a subsequent 12 month tetracycline treatment period. The dogs were divided into the following three groups and treated as follows: untreated controls (5), 250 mg tetracycline daily (5), and 500 mg tetracycline daily (7). An attempt was made to correlate the flora in deep periodontal pockets and the subsequent rate of alveolar bone loss in untreated control beagles and beagles treated with tetracycline (250 mg per day and 500 mg per day). The bacterial flora and the rate of bone loss of one site in each dog was compared during a six-month pretreatment period and a subsequent twelve-month tetracycline treatment period. The cultivable flora was classified according to cellular morphology. Gram stain, and atmospheric tolerance.The periodontal pocket flora was predominantly a Gram negative anaerobic flora at all time periods throughout the study. The flora of the untreated control dogs spontaneously shifted to a more Gram negative flora at 18 months of the study. In the treated dogs, after six months of tetracycline treatment, there was a significant shift to a more Gram negative flora which returned to baseline proportions after twelve months of treatment. A decrease in the numbers of bacteria sensitive in vitro to tetracycline was found in the course of the treatment period. No significant relationship was found between the cultivable flora of a specific site and the rate of alveolar bone loss for that site.The data suggest that in advanced periodontal disease in the beagle dogs studied a Gram negative anaerobic flora was predominantly cultivated. Broad groupings of bacteria cultivated from each site did not correlate with the rate of alveolar bone loss of each site.

    Notes: Fluticasone propionate aqueous nasal spray (FPANS) is a topically active glucocorticoid which has been successfully used for the treatment of seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR). Topical levocabastine is a highly selective H1 antagonist which has been proposed as an alternative treatment of SAR. The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical efficacy of two topical nasal treatments, FPANS and levocabastine, in the treatment of SAR. Additionally, the effect of treatments on nasal inflammation was examined during natural pollen exposure. A group of 288 adolescent and adult patients with at least a 2-year history of SAR to seasonal pollens participated in a multicenter, double-blind, double-dummy, and placebo-controlled study. Patients were treated with either FPANS 200 μg, once daily (n=97), or topical levocabastine, 200 μg, given twice daily (n=96), or matched placebo (n=95) for a period of 6 weeks, starting from the expected beginning of the pollen season. Clinically relevant pollens included Parietaria, olive, and grass. Assessment of efficacy was based on scores of daily nasal symptoms and on nasal cytology of nasal lavage. Nasal lavage was performed immediately before, during, and at the end of treatment in 39 patients. FPANS significantly increased the percentage of symptom-free days for nasal obstruction on waking and during the day, rhinorrhea, sneezing, and itching. FPANS provided a better control for night and day nasal obstruction (P〈0.02 and P〈0.01) and rhinorrhea (P〈0.01) than levocabastine. In addition, fewer patients treated with FPANS used rescue medication (P〈0.025). The percentage of eosinophils in nasal lavage was reduced only during treatment with FPANS. The results of this study indicate that FPANS 200 μg, once daily, provides a better clinical effect than levocabastine 200 μg, twice daily, in patients with SAR. Unlike levocabastine, FPANS significantly attenuates nasal eosinophilia during pollen exposure, a feature which may explain its therapeutic efficacy.

    Notes: Abstract The FAA has decided to install, operate, and maintain its own national microwave network called the Radio Communications Link (RCL) network. With this network and its capability to provide concentration points at any one of its microwave repeater locations, the FAA can substantially reduce its leased line budget. This paper addresses the problem of determining the most cost-effective mix of point-to-point leased lines and “tail circuits” to RCL concentrators for connecting communicating pairs of FAA facilities. The problem, formulated as an integer programming (IP) problem, is shown to be similar to the facility location problem. Also, like the facility problem, integral optimal solutions are frequently obtained. (The reason integral optimal solutions are frequently obtained for the facility location problem is not known.) Thus it is an example, more complex than the facility location problem, where such a phenomenon occurs. Also, the dimensionality of the problem precludes its being solved all in one piece. In this paper we formulate the problem, relate it to the facility location problem, and provide the partitioning and reduction techniques used to solve it in a reasonable amount of time. The partitioning and reduction techniques are independent of any particular formulation for this type of problem, and the solution methodology that would be applied to any subproblem.

    Description / Table of Contents: Riassunto Si presenta un trattamento teorico, al prim'ordine nella dinamica della collisione, per analizzare il ruolo della polarizzazione del campo elettrico nelle collisioni atomiche in presenza di un laser non risonante. Sono presentate espressioni generali per calcolare le modifiche dello spettro e le funzioni d'onda per un livellon qualsiasi di atomi idrogenoidi in presenza di un laser, linearmente o circolarmente polarizzato. Sono riportati calcoli numerici per eccitazione di atomi di idrogeno allo staton=2 per collisione con elettroni. Le due polarizzazioni danno notevoli differenze i) nelle modifiche dello specttro atomico, ii) nella struttura delle sezioni d'urto e iii) neirisultati numerici. In particolare, solo nel caso di laser linearmente polarizzato la distribuzione degli elettroni diffusi ad un fissato angolo ha una struttura di linee egulmente spaziate, ma di differente altezza. (La spaziatura tra le linee è uguale all'energia di un fotone laser ℏw e la loro altezza dipende dal numero di elettroni che dopo la collisione hanno una data energia.) Per il caso di laser circolarmente polarizzato lo spettro non ha tale struttura regolare. Poichè tra i processi di collisione in presenza di un campo laser al momento sono piú facilmente osservabili gli spettri guadagno-perdita di energia, si ritiene che i risultati riportati possano essere di stimolo per nuovi esperimenti in questa nuova classe di collisioni atomiche. Nelle linee essenziali si riporta anche la teoria per il caso di laser risonante conn-fotoni.
    Abstract: Резюме Предлагается теоретическое рассмотрение, в первом порядке, процесса соударения электронов с атомами в присутствии нерезонансного поляризованного лазерного излучения. Приводятся общие выражения для вычисления модифицированного спектра и волновых функций для уровня атомного водорода с произвольнымn в присутствии лазерного поля, которое может быть линеино или цирклулярно поляризовано. Проводятся вычисления воздуждения атомов водорода на уровеньn=2 при соударении с электроном. Обнаружено, что указанные две поляризации дают большие различия: 1) в изменениях атомных спектров, 2) в структуре поперечных сечений и 3) в численных результатах. В частности, только для линейной поляризации электрическое распределение рассеяных на фиксированный угол электронов имеет структуру последовательности равноотстоящих линий с разными высотами. (Интервал между линиями равен энергии лазерного фотона ℏω, а высота линии определяется числом электронов с заданной энергией.) Для циркулярной поляризации не предсказывается такое регулярное поведение в спектре. Так как энергетические спектры рассеяных электронов, в процессах соударения частиц с атомами в присутствии лазерного излучения, могут быть легко измерены, то полученные результаты могут служить стимулом для новых исследований нового класса атомных соударений. Предлагается также теория для многофотонного резонансного случая.
    Notes: Summary A theoretical treatment, of first order in the collision dynamics, is presented to analyse the role of electric polarization in offresonance laser-assisted atomic collisions. General expressions are presented for evaluating the modified spectrum and wave functions for anyn level of hydrogenic atoms in the presence of a laser, taken to be linearly and circularly polarized. Specific calculations are carried out for excitation of hydrogen atoms to the leveln=2 by electron impact. The two polarizations are found to yield large differences i) in the atomic-spectrum modifications, ii) in the structure of the cross-sections and iii) in the numerical results. In particular, only for linear polarization, the distribution in energy of the scattered electrons at a fixed scattering angle has the structure of a series of equally spaced lines of different height (the spacing being equal to the laser photon energy ℏw and the height of the line accounting for the number of final electrons with a given energy). For circular polarization no such a regular pattern is predicted. Since, among laser-assisted particle-atom collisions, at present energy gain-loss spectra of scattered electrons are most easily observed, it is hoped that the reported results may serve as a stimulus for new observations in this new class of atomic collisions. The theory to treat the multiphoton resonance case is outlined too.
