    Notes: [Auszug] During the course of chemical reactions, reactant molecules need to surmount an energy barrier to allow their transformation into products. The energy needed for this process is usually provided by heat, light, pressure or electrical potential, which act either by changing the distribution of ...

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé La signification de la courbe pointue («lagcurve») c-à-d celle dans laquelle le sucre sanguin monte rapidement à partir de la valeur normale à jeun à plus de 180 mg/100 ml mais retourne à la valeur à jeun en 120 min, reste controversée. Pour étudier cela plus profondément, le taux de l'insuline plasmatique a été mesuré par dosage radio-immunologique, pendant des épreuves de tolérance au glucose orales et intraveineuses, chez trois groupes de sujets comparables en ce qui concerne l'âge et le poids. Groupe 1, 14 avec des courbes pointues inexpliquées [(lagstorage curves) caractéristique de l'absorption intestinale rapide]. Groupe 2, 14 avec des courbes pointues à la suite d'une intervention chirurgicale gastrique. Groupe 3, 14 sujets normaux. Le taux moyen d'insuline était plus élevé dans le groupe 1 que dans le groupe 3, mais le stimulus hyperglycémique était plus grand. La réponse insulinique dans le groupe 2 n'a pas différé des témoins d'une façon significative. La courbe moyenne du sucre sanguin était semblable dans les groupes 1 et 2, mais en dépit de ceci, la réponse insulinique était significativement prolongée dans le groupe 1 suggérant un degré de résistance ou d'antagonisme insulinique. Dans les épreuves intraveineuses, 2 malades de chacun des groupes 1 et 2 avaient une valeur K dans le domaine des valeurs diabétiques. La valeur moyenne de K était plus élevée dans le groupe 1 que dans le groupe 2. Les deux groupes montraient une réponse insulinique semblable mais plutôt basse.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Die Bedeutung von spitzgipfligen Blutzuckerkurven, die von normalen Nüchternspiegeln auf mehr als 180 mg% ansteigen, um in 120 min auf die Ausgangswerte zurückzukehren, bleibt strittig. — Um diese Frage weiter zu klären, wurden imnumologisch die Plasma-Insulinwerte bei 3 Gruppen von je 14 Probanden gemessen, die nach Alter und Gewicht übereinstimmten: Gruppe 1 bestand aus Probanden mit derartigen Kurven ohne ausreichende Erklärung, Gruppe 2 aus Patienten nach Magenoperationen und Gruppe 3 diente als Vergleichskollektiv. Im Teilkollektiv 1 fanden sich höhere Insulinwerte als in 3, doch bestand gleichzeitig eine stärkere Blutzuckererhöhung als Stimulans. Die Insulinausschüttung in der Gruppe 2 unterschied sich nicht signifikant vom Vergleichskollektiv. In den Gruppen 1 und 2 stimmen die Blutzuckerspiegel weitgehend überein, doch hielt die Erhöhung der Insulinkonzentration in Gruppe 1 signifikant länger an, was auf einen gewissen Grad von Insulin-Resistenz oder -Antagonismus schließen läßt. Bei der i.v. Belastung ergaben sich für je 2 Probanden der Gruppen 1 und 2k-Werte im diabetischen Bereich. In Gruppe 1 lagen die mittlerenk-Werte höher als in Gruppe 2. Beide Teilkollektive zeigten eine eher erniedrigte Insulin-Ausschüttung.
    Notes: Summary The significance of the lag curve, i.e. one in which the blood sugar rises rapidly from a normal fasting value to more than 180 mg/100 ml but returns to the fasting value within 120 min, remains controversial. In order to study this further, plasma insulin levels were measured by immunoassay during oral and intravenous glucose tolerance tests in 3 groups of age/weight matched subjects: Group 1, 14 with unexplained lag curves: Group 2, 14 with lag curves following gastric surgery and Group 3, 14 normal subjects. The mean insulin levels were higher in Group 1 than in Group 3 but the hyperglycaemic stimulus was greater. The insulin response in Group 2 did not differ significantly from the controls. The mean blood sugar curves were similar in Groups 1 and 2, but despite this the insulin response was significantly prolonged in Group 1, suggesting a degree of insulin resistance or antagonism. In the intravenous test 2 patients from each of Groups 1 and 2 had aK value in the diabetic range. The meanK value was higher in Group 1 than in Group 2. Both groups showed a similar rather low insulin response.

    Notes: Purpose - Public schools in the USA face increased pressures for more accountability and improved performance. The objective of this study was to wed two previously separated theoretical strands of educational research - economic theory and organizational theory - by using variables from each theory base to develop, compare, and test a series of explanatory models of student achievement. Design/methodology/approach - A diverse set of schools was provided by 146 elementary schools in Ohio. Teachers in sample schools provided data on the collective efficacy of their schools and the Ohio Department of Education supplied demographic and achievement data. An ex post facto design was used to test a theoretical set of hypotheses and several structural models. Data were collected from the teachers in each school during regularly scheduled faculty meetings and analyzed using correlation analysis and structural equation modeling. Findings - Collective efficacy of teachers in these elementary schools had a positive direct effect on student reading and mathematics achievement, even when controlling for SES and prior achievement; however, school efficiency was unrelated to both collective efficacy of teachers and student achievement. Originality/value - This study weds two previously separated theoretical strands of educational research - economic theory and organizational theory - by using variables from each theory base to develop, compare, and test a series of explanatory models of student achievement.

    Notes: Long-term monitoring of sites contaminated with recalcitrant compounds will require the deployment of analytical sensors in an automated system capable of some degree of calibration and quality control. The primary method of providing calibration is to enclose the analytical sensors in a chamber where the environment of the chamber may be controlled. An automated “universal” sampling/calibration/analytical system was developed for mounting analytical sensors in the well or adjacent to the well. The automated universal system allows a sensor to directly analyze the analyte in the water sample or to analyze the analyte in the headspace above the water sample. The ability to analyze the analyte partitioned into the headspace is important for the determination of many volatile species. The analysis of trichloroethene (TCE) is performed by a TCE optrode monitoring the TCE concentrations in the headspace above the water sample. The term optrode refers to a chemically selective fiber-optic sensor. The TCE in the headspace reacts with a colorimetric reagent, producing a colored (red) product. The time history of the development of the colored product is used as the method of determination. The TCE optrode has a limit of detection of 1 part per billion (ppb). There are no interferences from many commonly occurring volatile chlorinated compounds encountered in aquifers such as tetrachloroethene, dichloroethenes, trichloroethane, or dichloroethanes. The system was deployed for monitoring TCE concentrations up to 200 ppb at sites in California and Florida.

    Notes: From the mid-1940s through the 1980s, large volumes of waste water were discharged at the Hanford Site in southeastern Washington State, causing a large-scale rise (〉20 m) in the water table. When waste water discharges ceased in 1988, ground water mounds began to dissipate. This caused a large number of wells to go dry and has made it difficult to monitor contaminant plume migration. To identify monitoring wells that will need replacement, a methodology has been developed using a first-order uncertainty analysis with UCODE, a nonlinear parameter estimation code. Using a three-dimensional, finite-element ground water flow code, key parameters were identified by calibrating to historical hydraulic head data. Results from the calibration period were then used to check model predictions by comparing monitoring wells’ wet/dry status with field data. This status was analyzed using a methodology that incorporated the 0.3 cumulative probability derived from the confidence and prediction intervals. For comparison, a nonphysically based trend model was also used as a predictor of wells’ wet/dry status. Although the numerical model outperformed the trend model, for both models, the central value of the intervals was a better predictor of a wet well status. The prediction interval, however, was more successful at identifying dry wells. Predictions made through the year 2048 indicated that 46% of the wells in the monitoring well network are likely to go dry in areas near the river and where the ground water mound is dissipating.

    Notes: Abstract –  Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) was once native to Lake Ontario, however, its numbers rapidly declined following colonisation by Europeans and the species was extirpated by 1896. Government agencies surrounding Lake Ontario are currently undertaking a variety of studies to assess the feasibility of reintroducing Atlantic salmon. We released hatchery-reared adult Atlantic salmon into a Lake Ontario tributary to examine spawning interactions between this species and fall-spawning exotic salmonids found in the same stream. Chinook salmon, coho salmon and brown trout were observed interacting with spawning Atlantic salmon in nearly one-quarter of our observation bouts, with chinook salmon interacting most frequently. Whereas a previous investigation found that chinook salmon caused elevated agonistic behaviour and general activity by spawning Atlantic salmon, the present study found that interspecific courtship was the most common form of exotic interaction with spawning Atlantic salmon. In particular, we observed precocial male Chinook salmon courting female Atlantic salmon and defending the female against approach by male Atlantic salmon. We discuss the potential implications of these interactions on the Lake Ontario Atlantic salmon reintroduction programme.

    Notes: Background:  Apoptosis is important for maintenance of tissue homeostasis and often dysregulated in cutaneous neoplasms. The apoptosis inhibitor survivin is expressed in melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancers and benign keratinocytic lesions. Its expression has not been studied in melanocytic nevi.Objective:  We determined the expression pattern of survivin in benign melanocytic nevi in comparison to markers of proliferation and apoptosis.Methods:  Six cases of each of the following melanocytic nevi were retrieved from a dermatopathology archive: compound dysplastic nevus, intradermal nevus, compound nevus, neurotized intradermal nevus, and Spitz nevus. Survivin expression was evaluated by in situ hybridization. Apoptotic and proliferation indices were calculated by counting immunoreactive cells in terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT)-mediated dUTP nick end labeling and proliferating cell nuclear antigen immunostained sections, respectively.Results:  All nevi, regardless of histologic type, expressed survivin. Compound melanocytic lesions expressed survivin in both epidermal and dermal compartments. The apoptotic rate was low for dysplastic, compound, and Spitz nevi, and apoptotic cells were not identified in any neurotized nevus. The proliferative index was highest for Spitz nevi, while all other nevi demonstrated rare positive cells.Conclusions:  Survivin is consistently expressed in benign melanocytic lesions, while apoptotic cells are rarely identified, suggesting the dysregulation of apoptotic pathways with the accumulation of cells in these neoplasms.
