    Notes: Expression of MMP-2 is associated with progression and lymph node metastasis of gastric carcinoma Aims: One important step in tumour invasion is the penetration of the basement membrane. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play a key role in the migration of normal and malignant cells through the basement membrane. The aim of this study was to investigate correlations between matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) immunoreactivity and currently used classification systems and possible relationships between lymph node metastasis and MMP-2 expression. Methods and results: This prospective study analysed specimens obtained from 114 gastric cancer patients (mean age 64 years; range 33–86 years) who underwent gastrectomy with extended lymphadenectomy. All specimens were categorized according to UICC classification, WHO classification, tumour differentiation, Laurén classification, Ming classification and Goseki classification. Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tumour specimens were stained using an avidin–biotin complex peroxidase assay. MMP-2 expression in the tumour epithelium was studied by immunohistochemistry with semiquantitative (score 0–3) evaluation. The MMP-2 staining pattern was positive (score 1–3) in 93 (81.6%) specimens and negative (score 0) in 21 (18.4%) samples. No significant correlations were found between MMP-2 expression and other variables such as age, tumour differentiation, WHO, Lauren, Goseki, and Ming classifications. In contrast, the intensity of MMP-2 staining in tumour cells correlated significantly with depth of tumour infiltration (T-stage), lymph node metastasis (N-stage), distant metastasis (M-stage), and UICC stage. Conclusions: Expression of MMP-2 is strongly associated with tumour progression and lymph node metastasis in gastric cancer. Therefore MMP-2 staining may be clinically useful as predictor of tumour progression, especially for lymph node metastasis.

    Description / Table of Contents: Abstract By means of the Prandtl boundary layer model a new correlation for the description of heat transfer to liquids with high temperature dependent physical properties has been developed. The Prandtl number is inserted as locally varying property and not as an average value. — The correlation has been proved by the investigation of heat transfer to water under supercritical pressures (pseudocritical temperatures). The calculation of heat transfer coefficients for liquids under subcritical pressures in case of high heat fluxes with markedly changing properties in the cross-section also is possible. For constant properties the new-correlation pass over the known formula of Petukhov which has been confirmed in large ranges.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Aus dem Prandtlschen Grenzschichtmodell wird eine neue Beziehung zur Besehreibung des.Wärmeübergangs an Flüssigkeiten mit starker Temperaturabhängigkeit der Stoffeigenschaften entwickelt. Die Prandtlzahl selbst erseheint darin als örtlich veränderliche Stoffgröße und nicht wie gewöhnlich als mittlere Kenngröße. — Die Darstellung wurde insbesondere anhand des Wärmeübergangs an Wasser bei überkritischen Drücken (im Bereich der pseudokritischen Temperatur) überprüft. - Die Beziehung erlaubt in gleicher Weise eine Beschreibung des Wärmeübergangs bei unterkritischen Drücken, wenn infolge hoher Wärmestromdichten sich die Stoffwerte über den Kanalquerschnitt stark ändern. Für konstante Stoffeigenschaften geht die neue Formel in die bekannte Petukhov-Formel über, die für diesen Fall erfahrungsgemäß in weiten Bereichen zutrifft.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary A sample of 1'838 school children of Basle, aged 8 to 14 years, who were examined by dentists of the school dental health service, attended at the same time a 24 hour recall interview on nutritional habits. The data show that absence of caries (among 448 or 24,4% of all) is more frequent within those children who prefer fruits instead of sugar containing sweets with and especially between the meals. Since schoolchildren are not able to distinguish well between sugar- and nonsugarcontaining sweets and drinks, health education on such subjects is emphasised.
    Notes: Résumé 1'838 élèves de la ville de Bále, agés entre 8 et 14 ans,étaient interogés avec un “24 hour recall” à l'occasion de leur examination dentaire. Les résultats montrent que l'absence de la carie est plus fréquente chez les enfants qui préfèrent les fruits aux bonbons avec,ou spécialement entre les repas. Les élèves ne savent pas faire la différence entre les bonbons ou boissons contenant des oligosaccharides et ceux n'en contiennent pas. L'éducation de santé concernante ce sujet devrait Être renforcé.

    Notes: In einem dünnen, langen Edelstahl-Rohr als Modell eines Reaktorkühlkanales wird Natrium durch Hochfrequenz-Heizung zum Sieden gebracht. Der Verlauf der Temperatur in der Achse des Rohres sowie der Geschwindigkeit der in Bewegung geratenden Natrium-Säule werden auf dem Schirm eines Zweistrahloszillographen photographiert. Die Temperatur der Rohraußenhaut, das Losbrechen des Siedens nach Überhitzen und die Länge der entstehenden Natrium-Dampfblasen werden durch Filmen mit erhöhter Bildzahl erfaßt. Der Film gibt ein instruktives Bild der Vorgänge im simulierten Kühlkanal.
