    Notes: Abstract  The genesis of intestinal smooth muscle layers was immunohistochemically investigated by use of an antibody to α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) in the developing chick ileum. Myoblast cells positive for α-SMA were already found in the presumptive circular muscle layer on E 8.5. On E 11.5 radially oriented muscle fibers were protruded from the outermost layer of the developing circular musculature and then formed a tuft-like aggregates. These radial muscle bundles were bent into an L-shape. The long distal extension of muscle bundles run parallel to the long axis of the ileal loop and developed into the longitudinal muscle layer. The obliquely oriented muscle fibers, locating at the intermuscular space of the muscularis propria, probably are to be considered a remnant of the short extension of radial muscle bundles. The muscularis mucosae was formed by the processes equivalent to the genesis of longitudinal muscle layer. On E 14.5 centripetally oriented muscle fibers emerged from the innermost layer of circular musculature. The long distal extension of centripetal fibers lay along the inner surface of developing circular musculature. On E 19.5 the longitudinal muscle layer of the muscularis mucosae was newly formed by separating from the circular musculature. The villous myoblast cells initially developed from the innermost layer of the muscularis mucosae on E 18.5, and were widely distributed in the lamina propria mucosae on E 20.5. Temporal and chronological pattern in expression of α-SMA was observed during the development of the chick intestinal smooth muscle. By E 14.5 the entire layer of the muscularis propria was intensely immunostained for α-SMA, but from E 15.5 onward the staining intensity gradually began to decrease from the outer half of the circular musculature. Finally, the immunoreactivity was localized in the inner layer of circular muscle and the longitudinal muscle layer. A possible functional role of this inner layer of circular muscle is discussed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé  Les auteurs rapportent 4 cas de fracture ancienne du bassin pour lesquels les situations d’urgence mettant en jeu le pronostic vital n’avaient pas permis initialement un traitement correct. Il s’agit de quatre patients dont l’âge s’échelonne de 24 à 51 ans. La gêne fonctionnelle était représentée par une boiterie, des douleurs dans les fesses et les membres inférieurs. Le délais entre l’accident et l’intervention était de 2,5 à 3 ans. Les douleurs et la capacité de marche ont été améliorées chez tous les patients mais une paralysie n’a pas pu être améliorée.
    Notes: Abstract  We report on 4 patients, aged 24–51 years, with untreated pelvic ring fractures. The chief complaints were gait disturbances and pain in the buttocks and lower limb. The period between the initial injury and the surgical treatment ranged from 2.5 months to 3 years. Palsy was not improved, but pain and gait ability was improved in all patients.

    Notes: Abstract Background:This phase II study was conducted to evaluate theefficacy and toxicity of docetaxel in Japanese patients with advanced ovariancancer. Patients and methods:Docetaxel was administered at a dose of 70mg/m2 intravenously to patients with platinum pre-treated advancedovarian cancer. Treatment was repeated every three weeks. No routinecorticosteroid premedication was given. Results:Ninety patients with advanced ovarian cancer were enteredand sixty were assessable for response. The overall response rate was28% in the assessable patients (95% confidence interval(95% CI): 17.5%–41.4%). CA125 responses were seenin 8 (24%) of 34 assessable patients for CA125 criteria. The 36platinum-refractory patients had a response rate of 25% compared with33% in the platinum-sensitive patients. The predominant toxicity wasneutropenia, with 86% of the patients experiencing grade 3 or 4.Hypersensitivity reactions occurred in 37% of the patients and were notlife threatening. Edema was mild and infrequent. Conclusion:Docetaxel at 70 mg/m2 demonstratedeffectiveness as a treatment of both platinum-sensitive andplatinum-refractory ovarian cancer patients, with a low incidence of severehypersensitivity reactions and edema.
