    Notes: Abstract The variety of SiO2-gel structures allows the use of sol-gel derived materials as host matrices for prolonged release of chemicals. In this work, the release of perfumed essences is studied in the case of hybrid SiO2 materials obtained from alkyl-modified silicon alkoxides. Thermogravimetric analysis in isothermal conditions at various temperatures provide data on the kinetic release process. The effects of physical parameters (porosity reduction, vapour pressure) and chemical interactions (organic molecules with matrix) are discussed for the interpretation of the results.

    Notes: Abstract. In this paper a clustering technique is proposed for attenuation correction (AC) in positron emission tomography (PET). The method is unsupervised and adaptive with respect to counting statistics in the transmission (TR) images. The technique allows the classification of pre- or post-injection TR images into main tissue components in terms of attenuation coefficients. The classified TR images are then forward projected to generate new TR sinograms to be used for AC in the reconstruction of the corresponding emission (EM) data. The technique has been tested on phantoms and clinical data of brain, heart and whole-body PET studies. The method allows: (a) reduction of noise propagation from TR into EM images, (b) reduction of TR scanning to a few minutes (3 min) with maintenance of the quantitative accuracy (within 6%) of longer acquisition scans (15–20 min), (c) reduction of the radiation dose to the patient, (d) performance of quantitative whole-body studies.

    Description / Table of Contents: Sommario Allo scopo di studiare in maniera completa l'ipogonadismo ipergonadotropo maschile nella distrofia miotonica e di valutarne le eventuali conseguenze sull'atrofia muscolare e sulla sessualità, sono stati determinati con metodo RIA o IRMA in 29 pazienti affetti da distrofia miotonica e in 34 soggetti sani: LH, FSH, prolattina, testosterone totale (T) e libero (FT), estradiolo (E), diidrotestosterone (DHT), SHBG, androstenedione (A), 17-OH-Progesterone. Le medie ± deviazione standard di questi ormoni sono risultati: LH=8.0±4.4 mIU/ml, FSH=17.4±11.5 mIU/ml, A=2.0±1.3 ng/ml, tutti più elevati dei controlli. T=406±290 ng/dl; FT=22.7±7.0 pg/ml, DHT 55.5±29.7 ng/dl tutti più bassi dei controlli. Il riscontro di bassi valori di FT e DHT, non studiati prima d'ora in questi soggetti, conferma e rende più evidente il deficit androgenico. L'elevato livello di A con T basso dimostra un deficit dell'enzima 17-deidrogenasi. La durata della malattia correla significativamente sia con il tasso di T (r−0.56) che di FT (r−0.59) e quindi l'ipogonadismo tende ad aggravarsi progressivamente. Dividendo i nostri pazienti in tre gruppi (A, B, C) in base alla gravità del danno muscolare i livelli di LH e FSH erano più elevati (rispettivamente 9.3±4.7 and 20.6±12.3 mIU/ml vs 4.8±0.9 and 8.4±3.8, p〈0.03) e T più basso (rispettivamente 337.3±263.4 ng/dl vs 649.7±320.3, p〈0.03) nelle forme più gravi (gruppo A). Tuttavia tra i tre gruppi non sono state riscontrate variazioni del FT e quindi è poco probabile una influenza dell'ipogonadismo sulla atrofia muscolare. Circa il 25% dei pazienti lamentava impotenza sessuale. Questi soggetti avevano livelli di FSH e LH più elevati (p〈0.001) e di testosterone libero più bassi (p〈0.03) rispetto a chi aveva normale sessualità. Tuttavia l'ipogonadismo potrebbe non essere la sola causa dell'impotenza. Gli impotenti appartenevano tutti al gruppo C ed avevano una espansione della tripletta CTG molto alta. È possibile che anche l'ipogonadismo e il deficit sessuale siano legati ad alterazioni di tessuto muscolare: le cellule miodi peritubulari del testicolo e la muscolatura liscia dei corpi cavernosi.
    Notes: Abstract In order to study male hypergonadotropic hypogonadism as completely as possible, and to evaluate its possible effects on muscle atrophy and sexuality, RIA or IRMA methods were used to measure the levels of luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), prolactin, total (T) and free (FT) testosterone, estradiol (E), dihydrotestosterone (DHT), sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), androstenedione (A) and 17-OH-progesterone (17-OH-P) in 29 patients with myotonic dystrophy (MD). The mean hormonal levels ±SD were: LH 8.0±4.4 mIU/ml, FSH 17.4±11.5 mIU/ml, A 200±130 ng/dl (all higher than in controls); T 406±290 ng/dl, FT 22.7±7.0 pg/ml, DHT 55.5±29.7 ng/ml (all lower than in controls). The low FT and DHT levels (never previously studied in MD) confirm the androgenic deficiency. The high androstenedione levels and low testosterone concentrations suggest defective enzyme 17-dehydrogenase. The duration of the disease correlated with both testosterone (r=−0.56) and FT levels (r=−0.59), showing that hypogonadism tends to worsen progressively. When the patients were divided into three groups on the basis of the severity of muscle involvement (A, B and C), LH and FSH levels were higher in group C (more severe disease) than in group A, respectively 9.3±4.7 and 20.6±12.3 mIU/ml versus 4.8±0.9 and 8.4±3.8, p〈0.03; T levels were lower in group C than in group A, 337.3±263.4 ng/dl versus 649.7±320.3 (p〈0.03); however, there was no significant difference in the FT levels of the three groups, which may imply that hypogonadism is unlikely to have a direct effect on muscle atrophy. About 25% of our patients were impotent; these subjects had higher LH and FSH (p〈0.001) and lower FT levels than the patients who were not impotent (p〈0.03). However, hypogonadism may not be the only cause of impotence as all of the impotent patients belonged to group C and had a very high (CTG)n triplet expansion. We hypothesise that hypogonadism and sexual impairment could be partially due to a muscle cell alteration: i.e. a dysfunction of both the testicular peritubular myoid cells and of the corpus cavernosum smooth muscle.
