    Notes: Abstract Alpha2-HS glycoprotein (AHSG) is a human plasma glycoprotein that exhibits genetic polymorphism on isoelectric focusing (IEF). To identify the origin of two common alleles, AHSG*1 and *2, we examined nucleotide exchanges in the gene. AHSG cDNA was obtained by RT-PCR from poly(A) RNA of seven liver tissue samples and subcloned into a plasmid vector. After sequencing, we found six single nucleotide differences in comparison with the originally reported sequence. In particular, the nucleotide substitutions of C to T at amino acid position 230 and C to G at position 238 were common among the samples exhibiting phenotype 2–1 or 2. Since these substitutions might give rise to a NlaIII site and a SacI site, respectively, for the potential AHSG*2, we analyzed these substitutions by PCR-RFLP using genomic DNA of 68 individuals. The result was consistent with the IEF analysis of the corresponding serum, indicating that AHSG*1 was characterized by ACG (Thr) at position 230 in exon 6 and ACC (Thr) at position 238 in exon 7, and that AHSG*2 was characterized by ATG (Met) at position 230 and AGC (Ser) at position 238.

    Notes: Summary A newly designed attachment device of the multipurpose head frame (Sugita) for Neuronavigator (Watanabe) is presented with an illustrative case of glioblastoma in an eloquent area. This has extended the usefulness of the neuronavigator for those who prefer and use the multipurpose head frame, while the requirements for keeping a stereotactic combination and the original concept of the multipurpose head frame, as well as that of the neuronavigator have been kept undisturbed.

    Notes: Summary  An intraoperative classification of intradural internal carotid artery (ICA) aneurysms not related to the arterial division but based on their operative presentation and clipping techniques is introduced. On the basis of the surgeon's view of the operative field via the pterional approach in 156 operated intradural ICA aneurysms in 143 patients, these aneurysms were classified according to their location in relation to the long axis of the ICA as either proximal, middle or distal in type and also according to their relation to the cross section of the ICA as either lateral, medial, ventral or dorsal in type. Numerically the largest in frequency is the middle type of aneurysm by axial location and the lateral type of aneurysms by cross sectional location. Eighty five percent of the lateral type aneurysms were at the arterial division. The majority of the large to giant aneurysms were of the ventral type and no dorsal type aneurysms were seen. About one third of the ICA aneurysms in this series were located free of the arterial division. All dorsal type aneurysms and most of the medial type aneurysms were not related to the arterial division.  Clipping techniques were classified into perpendicular and parallel clipping, as to the direction of the clip-blades in relation to the carotid axis. The parallel clipping was further classified into forward clipping, in which a clip was applied from the distal side of the ICA, and reversed clipping, in which a clip was applied from the proximal side of the ICA. Most of the aneurysms located at the arterial division required the perpendicular clipping and those free of the arterial division required the parallel clipping. Furthermore, the forward clipping was useful for proximal type aneurysms and the reversed clipping for distal type aneurysms. For the middle type aneurysms clipping was performed bidirectionally.  This classification includes all types of the ICA aneurysms located at any points along its long axis and on its cross section, and is useful for planning safe and exact clipping of the ICA aneurysms.

    Notes: Summary The surgical outcome of 221 cases with multiple intracranial aneurysms operated upon during the years 1988 to 1994 were reviewed. The patients were classified into three groups according to the locations of the aneurysms; group 1: multiple aneurysms located unilaterally in the anterior circulation only (147 cases); group 2: multiple aneurysms located bilaterally in the anterior circulation only (44 cases) and group 3: multiple aneurysms located in both anterior and posterior circulation or in the posterior circulation alone (30 cases). In 132 cases of group 1 (89.8%) all aneurysms were treated in one-stage operations. Twenty-eight patients from group 2 (63.6%) received partial treatment, where only the ruptured or the symptomatic aneurysms were treated. In 12 other cases from group 2 (27.3%) all multiple aneurysms were treated in two-stage operations. In group 3 patients, one-stage operations were performed in 18 cases (60%), while 9 patients (30%) received partial treatment only. Of the 221 multiple aneurysm cases, 162 (73.3%) presented with manifestations of subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). The remaining 59 multiple aneurysms cases (26.7%) presented with manifestations other than SAH (unruptured aneurysms). In the postoperative follow-up, of the 221 multiple aneurysms cases, 113 (51.1%) were free of neurological deficit (excellent), 48 cases (21.7%) were capable of leading an independent life (good), 32 cases (14.5%) were not independent and needed to be assisted (fair), and 28 patients (12.7%) died. These results were comparable to the results of patients with single aneurysms operated on during the same period. Based on our results, we recommend that whenever possible all multiple aneurysms should be treated in one-stage operations. In unruptured multiple aneurysm cases surgical management is the recommended treatment. In poor grade SAH patients or unruptured multiple aneurysms in old patients, two-stage operations or partial treatment of only the ruptured or the symptomatic aneurysms may be adopted.

    Notes: Summary 27 cases of cranioplasty with autogenous bone grafts stored in a deep-freezer and autoclaved before use are reported. The results of follow-up for an average period of one year were satisfactory from the standpoint of brain protection and cosmetic reconstruction. A small area of absorption of grafted bone was observed in two cases on the follow-up skull roentgenograms. No serious complications were seen except in one case, whose bone flap had to be removed due to an epidural abscess. Experiments revealed that deep-freezing and autoclaving had only minimal effects on bone structure, although osteocytes degenerated. Autogenous bone flap after deep-freezing is a useful material for cranioplasty but sterilization before use is indispensable. Autoclaving is a simple method for sterilization of the flap, available in any operating theatre. It does not increase the risk of postoperative complications such as infection or absorption.

    Notes: A calculation of the interface energy for the Ni-Al binary alloy, including the inter-phaseboundary (IPB) energy and the anti-phase boundary (APB) energy, has been performed using theCluster Variation Method (CVM) with the tetrahedron approximation within the temperature range of600°C~1300°C. The calculated IPB energies range between 8 and 13 mJ/m2, while the APB energiesrange between 24 and 46 mJ/m2. Additionally, the dependence of the average composition and theorder parameter on distance with the compositionally diffuse interfacial regions has been computed.The calculation also shows the width of the diffuse IPB increases with the temperature linearly

    Notes: The seed storage proteins of wheat flour are the determinants of bread-making quality. Many cultivars having good bread-making quality carry the Glu-D1d allele responsible for the development of glutenin, a major seed storage protein. The Glu-D1d allele was introduced into four leading Japanese wheat cultivars by recurrent backcrossing and the quality of these near-isogenic lines (NILs) was evaluated by the sodium dodecyl sulphate sedimentation value of their flour. The values for the NILs were significantly higher than for the corresponding recipient cultivars. However, the values did not reach the level of the cultivar that had been used as the donor of the Glu-D1d allele.
