    Notes: The caustic peeling rates of potatoes is considered from an analytical and experimental point of view. The analysis considers the process to be governed by the competing rates of mass transport within the potato (diffusion) and chemical reaction. The chemical reaction between caustic and chlorogenic acid is singled out for analysis since the product of this reaction is a yellow salt which is easily measured by calorimetry. Simplified equations for the concentration of the yellow salt as a function of time is obtained for the two limiting extremes of diffusion controlled rates and reaction controlled rates. Experiments on Idaho Russetts indicate that, over the first 2–3 min of immersion in caustic, the process is diffusion controlled. It is also shown that it is the outer skin which presents the large diffusion resistance. For reasonable times after this initial period the process is reaction controlled and very sensitive to temperature. The implications of these results with respect to processing techniques (e.g., the dry peel process) and sequences is considered and discussed.

    Notes: Previous serological studies of Greek rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients have failed to demonstrate an association with DR4. Using sequence specific oligonucleotide typing we have identified the DRB1 alleles in panels of Greek RA patients and controls.When patient and control HLA-DRB1 frequencies were compared, significantly higher frequencies of DRBl*0101 (23.3% vs. 7.0%, odds ratio [OR] 4.0, 95% confidence intervals [CI] 1.4-12.0) and DRB1 *1001 (20.9% vs. 5.8%, OR 4.3,95% CI 1.3-13.7) were found in RA patients compared with controls. No association of DRB1*04 with RA was observed (20.9% vs. 14.0% in controls) confirming earlier reports. However DRB1*04 subtyping demonstrated a small but significant increase of DRB1*0405 in patients (14.0% vs. 3.5%, OR 4.5, 95% CI 1.1-18.9).When the frequency of individuals carrying the shared RA susceptibility epitope was compared between patients and controls it was found to be significantly higher in RA patients (60.5% vs. 22.1%, OR 5.4, 95% CI 2.4-12.0). We conclude that the shared epitope is significantly associated with RA in this population, but that it is predominantly accounted for by DRB 1*0101 and DRB1*1001.Previous studies of UK RA patients have demonstrated a negative association of DR2 with disease and articular erosions. HLA-DR2 variants, DRB1*1501 and *1502 are not at reduced frequency in Greek RA patients (DRB1*7507, 14.0% in patients vs. 7.0% in controls; DRB1*1502, 7.0% in patients vs. 7.0% in controls). Genes conferring RA resistance may be in linkage disequilibrium with DR2 in UK patients. This does not appear to be the case in Greek RA patients.No association was seen between RA and HLA-DPB1 type.

    Notes: Despite decades of research, much remains unanswered about the epidemiology of dry mouth. This review aims to provide an overview of the condition's epidemiology and the issues to consider when planning an epidemiological study of dry mouth. The latter can be broadly grouped into: study design; sampling and statistical power considerations; the measurement of dry mouth; and the selection, nature and measurement of relevant exposure measures, including medications and potential confounding variables. Each of these is discussed, in order to provide guidance for prospective researchers based on experience with past research. Finally, an agenda for further epidemiological research into dry mouth is proposed.

    Notes: The authors determined the allele frequencies of the TAP1 and TAP2 transporter genes in a healthy UK Caucasoid population by ARMS-PCR. TAP1A was the most frequent TAP1 allele by far, being present in 76% of subjects. TAP1 alleles could not be assigned in 24% of subjects, since the combinations TAP 1 A/1B and TAP1C/1D cannot be separated. TAP2A was the most frequent TAP2 alleles (75% of subjects) followed by TAP2B (43%), TAP2C (11%), TAP2D (8%) and TAP2E (6%). The authors also identified an individual with a previously undescribed TAP2 allele, TAP2H (isoleucine at amino acid [aa] 379, alanine at aa 565, alanine at aa 665).It was not possible to assign unequivocally TAP2 alleles in 15 individuals (9%) as TAP2A/D and TAP2C/E cannot be distinguished from each other.To address this problem a separate study of families of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients selected for this ambiguity were studied. In all five informative families, TAP2A/2D was confirmed as the combination present.In the population studied no evidence was found for linkage disequilibrium between TAP1 and TAP2 or between the TAP genes and HLA-DP. There was no evidence for extensive linkage disequilibrium between the TAP genes and HLA-DQ/DR, although TAP2B was associated with DR1 (Δ= 0.056, corrected P 〈 0.01) and TAP2D with DR4 (Δ= 0.018). In the RA families studied, TAP2D was found on DRB1 *0401 -bearing haplotypes.

    Notes: We have characterized TAP allele frequencies in a panel of 71 Yoruba Nigerians using ARMS-PCR. With the exception that TAP 2D was absent in Nigerians, TAP 2 allele frequencies in this population were found to be similar to those in a UK white population. HLA-DR4 also was found to be at a low frequency in Yoruba Nigerians (1.4%). This may reflect the absence of TAP 2D in Nigerians as DR4 and TAP 2D are in linkage disequilibrium in UK Caucasoids.The most frequent TAP 1 allele in Yoruba Nigerians was TAP 1A (49%). However, this value will be an underestimate as TAP1 alleles could not be unequivocally assigned in 41 % of subjects using the ARMS-PCR methodology.

    Notes: We have developed a simple and rapid non-radioactive technique for HLA-DR4 subtyping. A multiplex ARMS-RFLP (Amplification Refractory Mutation System – Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism) system allows HLA-DR4 subtyping by analysis of the products of two multiplex ARMS reaction mixtures. For some cases, restriction enzyme digests (Hae II and/or Sac II) of the products are analysed. The technique relies on the fact that an ARMS primer with a mismatch at its 3′-end with respect to the template will not be elongated under PCR conditions. Hence, by designing ARMS primers such that different HLA-DR4 alleles yield PCR products of different lengths, only two reactions, each using a mixture of different ARMS primers, are sufficient to type all of the known HLA-DR4 alleles. This system can distinguish between HLA-DR4 ‘homozygotes’ and ‘heterozygotes’ since every HLA-DR4 allele can be detected. The ARMS conditions were optimized using DNA from cell lines. This technique has now been used to type a panel of rheumatoid arthritis patients and controls.

    Notes: Abstract –  This study investigated the periodontal and dental trauma resultant from tongue and lip piercings in a convenience sample of 43 adult dental patients. Patients underwent an intra-oral examination followed by the administration of a questionnaire. Each patient was examined for lingual or buccal recession of the upper and lower incisors as well as the extent of abnormal toothwear or trauma on these teeth. Following bivariate analyses, regression analyses were conducted to test the study hypotheses and derive adjusted estimates for the dependent variables. Of the 43 individuals who participated (93.0% females; mean age 21 years; age range 14–34 years) 76.7% had a tongue piercing, 34.9% had a lip piercing, and 11.6% had both. Only four had had their piercing procedure provided by a doctor or dentist. Postpiercing complications were reported by 34.9%. Most of those with a labial piercing (80.0%) had 1+ labial site with gingival recession (GR), and almost one-third of those with a tongue piercing had at least one lingual site with GR. Age was a significant predictor of the prevalence of lingual recession, with the odds of having lingual recession increasing by 1.17 (95% CI 1.01, 1.35) for every year older than 14. Age was the only significant predictor of the number of lingual sites with recession, but was not a predictor of the prevalence of labial recession or the number of affected sites. There were no significant associations between piercings and abnormal toothwear or trauma. These findings suggest that oral piercings are associated with localized gingival recession, and that the providers of such procedures should ensure that, as part of the informed consent process, prospective patients are informed of the likelihood that their periodontal health may be compromised.

    Notes: The contributions of direct immunofluorescence, light microscopy and serology to the investigation of 52 patients with possible lupus erythematosus were studied. Direct immunofluorescence was found to be most valuable in the investigation of possible systemic lupus erythematosus whilst only of supportive value in the investigation of possible chronic discoid lupus erythematosus. The importance of performing light microscopy before direct immunofluorescence in cases of possible chronic discoid lupus erythematosus is shown.
