    Notes: Background: As many as 50% of patients with reflux symptoms have no endoscopic evidence of oesophagitis. This multicentre study was designed to assess symptom relief after omeprazole 20 mg once daily in patients with symptoms typical of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease but without endoscopic evidence of oesophagitis. Methods: Patients (n=209) were randomized in a double-blind study to receive either omeprazole 20 mg once daily (n=98) or placebo (n=111) for 4 weeks. Symptoms were assessed at clinic visits and using daily diary cards, with patient-completed questionnaires providing additional data on symptoms and on psychological disturbance. Results: On completion, symptom relief favoured omeprazole: 57% of patients on omeprazole were free of heartburn (vs. 19% on placebo), 75% were free of regurgitation (47%) and 43% were completely asymptomatic (14%), each with P〈0.0001. Fewer patients in the omeprazole group required alginate/antacid relief medication (P〈0.05). Symptom relief (time to first heartburn-free day) was more rapid with omeprazole (2 vs. 5 days on placebo; P〈0.01). A greater reduction in anxiety occurred in the omeprazole group (P〈0.05). Conclusion: Omeprazole 20 mg once daily is effective in providing relief of the symptoms typical of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease in patients with essentially normal oesophageal mucosa.

    Notes: Aggressive growth by legumes may restrict the diversity of species-rich meadows recreated on sites restored after mineral extraction. We investigated the ability of mineral nitrogen (N) applications and spring grazing to control the legume component of such meadows. The use of N suppressed Trifolium repens but had no effect on other legume species or on the species richness, diversity, or equitability of the meadow community. Spring grazing significantly reduced the yield from the legume component of the meadow. This was accompanied by an increase in the equitability index of the community, suggesting that the aggressive nature of the legumes had been checked. Spring grazing may therefore provide a means of controlling aggressive legume growth and may maintain the diversity of species-rich meadows established on restored sites.

    Notes: The wreckfish Polyprion americanus, a large [〉1 m total length (LT)] demersal teleost, is distributed globally in temperate waters, including both sides of the North and South Atlantic Oceans, the Mediterranean, the western South Pacific, and the southern Indian Ocean. Wreckfish spawn off the south-eastern U.S. on an area of the Blake Plateau (the Charleston Bump) characterized by an extensive ridge having approximately 100 m relief, in 450–600 m depths. Juvenile wreckfish (〈60 cm LT) are pelagic and, in the North Atlantic, are not reported from the Blake Plateau fishing area, but occur in by-catch and fishery landings in the eastern Atlantic. Analysis of nine restriction fragment length profiles from a PCR-amplified fragment (∼1.5 kb) of the ND1 mitochondrial gene indicated no stock separation between eastern North Atlantic (Azores, Majorca, Madeira), and western North Atlantic (Blake Plateau) wreckfish. Restriction site differences separate western South Atlantic wreckfish from the North Atlantic; however, South Atlantic wreckfish share restriction-site similarities with western Pacific wreckfish that are not shared with North Atlantic wreckfish. North Atlantic circulation provides a mechanism for a long-lived pelagic stage to be dispersed from Blake Plateau spawning grounds to the eastern North Atlantic. Global circulation patterns may explain both the dispersal of mtDNA haplotypes and the disjunct distribution of wreckfish body lengths in a temperate, deep-water vagile species with an extended pelagic juvenile stage such as wreckfish.

    Notes: Abstract A facial image was reconstructed from the skull, part of a complete skeleton found in woodland, of a male person who had hanged himself from a tree. In addition, video superimposition was carried out with antemortem photographs of a person suspected of being the victim, and a good match was obtained. In a further case, a cheaper video-transparency superimposition was carried out, with identity later being confirmed on the basis of dental records. The techniques and the problems encountered are discussed. According to our experience, 3D computer reconstruction and video superimposition have a useful role in the process of identification, particularly in the early stages of an investigation and when other more definitive methods may not be available.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Funktionen der Maxillartaster von Locusta migratoria migratorioides (R. & F.), Schistocerca gregaria (Forskål) und Chortippus parallelus (Zett.) wurden unter Anwendung verschiedener Verfahren untersucht. Die Tasterbewegungen wurden kinematographisch analysiert und als Schlagen und Tasten klassifiziert; das letztere tritt hauptsächlich kurz vor und nach, aber ebenso gut auch während der Nahrungsaufnahme auf. Die Sensillen an den Tasterenden berühren beim Tasten häufig das Substrat. Vorausgesetzt, daß die Insekten nicht gehungert hatten, wurde Bellis allein nach Betasten abgelehnt; nach längerem Hungern erfolgte jedoch die Ablehnung erst nach Beißen. Weitere Versuche, bei denen Extrakte der Kutikula von Poa oder Bellis verwendet wurden, zeigten, daß Annahme oder Ablehnung von der chemischen Natur des Substrats abhängen, welches von den Tastern berührt wird. Betasten eines geeigneten Substrats führte nicht unmittelbar zum Beißen, ruft aber eine Verhaltensweise hervor, die ihrerseits das Beißen fördert. Daraus wird geschlossen, daß die von den Tastern wahrgenommenen chemischen Reize für die Nahrungswahl der Acrididen wichtig sind, wenn die Insekten normal fressen. Nach Hunger ruft mechanische Reizung der Taster oder anderer Mundteile Beißen auch beim Fehlen geeigneter chemischer Reize hervor. Die häufigen kurzen Kontakte der Palpen mit dem Substrat während des Tastens erlauben offenbar den Sensillen, einen beständigen Strom von Informationen an das Zentralnervensystem zu liefern, ohne selbst angepaßt (ermüdet) zu werden.
    Notes: Abstract The functions of the maxillary palps of acridids have been investigated in experiments with Locusta migratoria migratorioides (R. & F.), Schistocerca gregaria (Forsk.) and Chorthippus parallelus (Zett.). The palp makes small irregular flicking movements and more extensive rapid vibrations described as palpation. Both activities involve the same basic movements of the palp segments. Palpation is essentially related to feeding and in normally feeding insects the palps play an important role in food selection, but as starvation is prolonged they become unimportant. Selection depends on appropriate chemical stimulation from the cuticle on the surface of the leaf. Palpation on this leads to head lowering and to biting if appropriate tactile stimuli are then received. The control of biting is discussed. The frequent but very brief, contacts of the sensilla on the tips of the palps with the substratum during palpation may enable them to relay information to the central nervous system more or less continuously without adapting.

    Notes: Abstract The effect of interval space between the concentration (symmetric or geometric), number of concentrations and overall sample sizes were investigated using a Petri dish bioassay, the miticide propargite and two spider mites species. The precision (width of the 95% confidence intervals) of the LC50 and LC90 estimates was shown to be influenced by the test design and total sample size The results suggest that a symmetric five-concentration design using a minimum total sample size of 480 mites is required to produce reliable LC estimates using the Petri dish method. Asymmetric designs did not increase the reliability of LC estimates. When less than 480 test subjects are available, a symmetric three-concentration design would give adequate LC estimates, but the precision would be less than with a five-concentration design.

    Notes: The change in apparent molal volume φ of DNA on thermal denaturation in carbonate buffer at pH 11.0 has been determined by the dilatometric method. It was found that φ increases sigmoidally during the helix-coil transition. Several methods, including a colorimetric technique that closely simulates the conditions used in the dilatometric experiments, were employed to estimate the protons lost by the DNA during the transition. These measurements indicated that the extent of the proton loss depends on the counterion present, increasing in the order Li+ 〈 Na+ 〈 K+ 〈 Cs+. The major part of the volume changes observed during the denaturation is due to the volume changes expected to accompany the transfer of protons from the bases guanine and thym ne to carbonate ions. As has been previously reported for the denaturation of DNA at neutral pH, the volume change directly due to the change in shape of the polymer molecules is so small as to be experimentally undetectable.
