    Notes: The ground state geometries of sulfur clusters S2 to S13 have been calculated using a parameter-free density functional (DF) method, combined with molecular dynamics (MD) and simulated annealing techniques. The results are in good agreement with available experimental data, and should provide reliable predictions where detailed measurements are lacking (n=3,4,5,9). The bonding trends are discussed in detail. The MD-DF approach is particularly valuable in larger clusters, where there are many local energy minima with comparable energies.

    Notes: Density functional calculations of the energy surfaces of infinite helical chains of selenium have been performed for a wide range of geometries using the parameter-free local density approximation. The results are compared with our earlier calculations for the sulfur helix S∞ for which the calculated ground state geometry is in good agreement with experiment. The energy surfaces of both molecules are flat over large regions of configuration space—consistent with the extreme flexibility of these molecules—and are characterized by a variety of local minima and saddle points. Stretching each molecule results in planar zig-zag and linear geometries with overlapping conduction bands. The energy differences between helical and planar minima are small (∼0.2 eV).

    Notes: Displacement theorems are presented for the solutions in spherical coordinates of the linear Navier–Stokes equations for time-independent flow in an incompressible viscous fluid. The theorems allow one to expand spherical solutions about a chosen center into spherical solutions centered elsewhere.

    Notes: Addition theorems for spherical wave solutions of the vector Helmholtz equation are discussed. The theorems allow one to expand a vector spherical wave about a given origin into spherical waves about a shifted origin. A simplified derivation of the results obtained earlier by Cruzan [O. R. Cruzan, Q. Appl. Math. 20, 33 (1962)] is presented.

    Notes: Abstract: Homozygous APPV717F transgenic mice overexpress a human β-amyloid precursor protein (βAPP) minigene encoding a familial Alzheimer’s disease mutation. These mice develop Alzheimer-type neuritic β-amyloid plaques surrounded by astrocytes. S100β is an astrocyte-derived cytokine that promotes neurite growth and promotes excessive expression of βAPP. S100β overexpression in Alzheimer’s disease correlates with the proliferation of βAPP-immunoreactive neurites in β-amyloid plaques. We found age-related increases in tissue levels of both βAPP and S100β mRNA in transgenic mice. Neuronal βAPP overexpression was found in cell somas in young mice, whereas older mice showed βAPP overexpression in dystrophic neurites in plaques. These age-related changes were accompanied by progressive increases in S100β expression, as determined by S100β load (percent immunoreactive area). These increases were evident as early as 1 and 2 months of age, months before the appearance of β-amyloid deposits in these mice. Such precocious astrocyte activation and S100β overexpression are similar to our earlier findings in Down’s syndrome. Accelerated age-related overexpression of S100β may interact with age-associated overexpression of mutant βAPP in transgenic mice to promote development of Alzheimer-like neuropathological changes.

    Notes: The Buschke−Loewenstein tumour is regarded as a type of verrucous carcinoma occurring on anogenital mucosal surfaces. The tumour is locally invasive but displays a benign cytology and rarely metastasizes. It is associated with human papillomavirus types 6 and 11. We describe a case of Buschke−Loewenstein tumour occurring in a 61-year-old man which behaved in a locally aggressive manner and was associated with human papillomavirus type 16 and erythroderma which proved resistant to treatment. The patient refused surgery and therapy with interferon α was ineffective. Chemotherapy with systemic cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil produced a partial response before the patient succumbed from gram-negative septicaemia.

    Notes: Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE) is an uncommon benign vascular tumour. It presents with small, dull red papules or nodules usually on the ears and preauricular areas and only 20% of lesions are multiple. We report a case of multiple scattered lesions of ALHE in a patient who subsequently developed lichen amyloidosus. Cases of lichen amyloidosus in association with Kimura's disease have been reported previously, but there are no reports of lichen amyloidosus with ALHE. The coexistence of these two conditions implies that ALHE is an inflammatory disorder, as an inflammatory process resulting in basal layer damage is necessary for the occurrence of lichen amyloidosus.

    Notes: Melanoma in situ of the lentigo maligna (LM) type is a precursor lesion of LM melanoma. It most commonly occurs in elderly individuals, on the head and neck. Although surgical excision is recommended, this may not be practical for large lesions at cosmetically sensitive sites. In addition, histological changes commonly extend beyond the clinical margins of the lesion. This study describes the use of imiquimod 5% cream as topical immunotherapy in the management of lentigo maligna. Twelve patients (average age 63 years, 10 female), of biopsy-proven facial LM were treated with topical imiquimod, three times a week for 6 weeks. In the absence of an inflammatory response, patients were asked to apply the treatment daily. Seven showed clearance of the LM clinically and histologically. A further three patients showed clearance histologically with persisting pigmentation due to dermal melanin and melanophages. Thus, 10 of 12 patients cleared with no relapse after a median follow-up of 6 months. Two patients failed to respond to imiquimod and their lesions were treated with surgical excision. Imiquimod was well tolerated, except in three patients who experienced an intense inflammatory response. Two of these also developed secondary infection. Imiquimod 5% cream appears to offer a potential noninvasive method for the treatment of lentigo maligna.

    Notes: PUVA is a well-established and effective treatment for plaque stage mycosis fungoides (MF) but its use is limited on a long-term basis because of the risk of cutaneous carcinogenesis. A further disadvantage is that nonexposed areas (sanctuary sites) often develop persistent disease. Therefore it is important to find alternative methods of treatment. Extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) is a form of photochemotherapy that involves exposure of white blood cells to UVA with psoralens and can be effective in Sézary syndrome and erythrodermic cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of PUVA and ECP in the treatment of patients with T2 plaque stage (Stage 1B) MF who had a detectable peripheral blood T-cell clone. The study was of a cross-over design. Sixteen patients were randomized to receive either PUVA twice weekly for 3 months followed by ECP once monthly for 6 months at relapse, or vice-versa. Response was assessed by monthly skin scores and peripheral blood T-cell clonality. Ten patients received PUVA initially and six ECP initially. Eight patients completed the study. Skin scores taken at the completion of each treatment arm in patients who completed the study were 113 units better (confidence interval, 42–184 units) following 3 months PUVA than 6 months ECP (P = 0.002). Peripheral blood T-cell clones were detectable in all patients post-treatment. This study indicates that ECP is not effective in the treatment of plaque stage (1B/T2) MF even in patients with molecular evidence of a peripheral blood T-cell clone. Although PUVA was more effective than ECP, neither treatment modality cleared malignant T-cells from the peripheral blood.
