    Notizen: Objective To measure the plasma levels of corticotrophin-releasing hormone and corticotrophin-releasing hormone binding protein in normal pregnancy and in pregnancies complicated by pre-eclampsia.Setting John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford and St Thomas's Hospital, London.Subjects One hundred and twenty pregnant women sampled prospectively throughout gestation, of whom 91 experienced a normal pregnancy and eight developed pre-eclampsia; in a second study, 10 women with severe pre-eclampsia, presenting at a range of gestational ages, were sampled once and compared with appropriately matched normal pregnant women.Main outcome measure Plasma levels of corticotrophin-releasing hormone determined by immunoradiometric assay. Plasma levels of corticotrophin-releasing hormone binding protein measured by direct radioimmunoassay.Results In the prospective study, plasma samples from women with pre-eclampsia exhibited higher (390.2 versus 292.7 pmol/l at 36 weeks) levels of corticotrophin-releasing hormone and significantly lower (5.24 versus 8.14 nmol/l at 36 weeks, P 0.002) levels of corticotrophin-releasing hormone binding protein than normal controls. In the second, single time point study a significant elevation in CRH (P 〈 0.002) and reduction in CRH-BP (P 〈 0.001) was found in pre-eclamptic pregnancies compared with controls.Conclusions In human pregnancies complicated by pre-eclampsia there is an elevated level of corticotrophin releasing hormone whilst there is less corticotrophin-releasing hormone binding protein; therefore there is a net increase in free potentially bioactive hormone which may play a role in the pathology of the disease.

    Notizen: We have studied the interaction of a high current electron beam with dielectric loaded waveguides as a source of electromagnetic radiation. A unique high current photoinjector-based electron linac was used to generate the drive beam for these experiments, and the fields generated were diagnosed using a trailing probe (witness) beam from a second photocathode gun. Traveling wave dielectric structures with luminal (vphase=c) frequencies of 15 and 20 GHz were used. The radio frequency power levels generated in these initial experiments were very large—up to 11 MW.

    Notizen: Temperature dependent photoluminescence decay measurements have been used to study the minority carrier dynamics in iodine-doped ZnSe grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The existence of three deep acceptor levels with energies at 80, 120, and 350 meV above the valence band has been established. The 80 and 120 meV levels have a density dependence directly related to the iodine doping density whilst the level at 350 meV does not. Significant broadband donor–acceptor emission is observed from this material and appears to be associated with the acceptor level at 350 meV. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notizen: 1. AusRivAS (Australian River Assessment Scheme) models were developed, using macroinvertebrates as indicators, to assess the ecological condition of rivers in Western Australia as part of an Australia-wide program. The models were based on data from 188 minimally disturbed reference sites and are similar to RIVPACS models used in Britain. The major habitats in the rivers (macrophyte, channel) were sampled separately and macroinvertebrates collected were identified to family level.2. Laboratory sorting of preserved macroinvertebrate samples recovered about 90% of families present when 150 animals were collected, whereas live picking in the field recovered only 76%.3. Reference sites clustered into five groups on the basis of macroinvertebrate families present. Using seven physical variables, a discriminant function allocated 73% of sites to the correct classification group. A discriminant function based on seven physical and two chemical variables allocated 81% of sites to the correct group. However, when the same reference sites were re-sampled the following year, the nine variable discriminant function misallocated more sites than the seven variable function, owing to annual fluctuations in water chemistry that were not accompanied by changes in fauna.4. In preliminary testing, the wet season channel model correctly assessed 80% of reference sites as undisturbed in the year subsequent to model building (10% of sites were expected to rate as disturbed because the 10th percentile was used as the threshold for disturbance). Nine sites from an independent data set, all thought to be disturbed, were assessed as such by the model. Results from twenty test sites, chosen because they represented a wide range of ecological condition, were less clear-cut. In its current state the model reliably distinguishes undisturbed and severely disturbed sites. Subtle impacts are either detected inconsistently or do not affect ecological condition.

    Notizen: Background Low humidity is an important limiting factor for mite population growth. Reducing humidity can therefore be used as a method to control mites within the home.Objective Ihis study investigated the effect of mechanical ventilation heat recovery (MVHR) units on house dust mites and mite allergen Der p I in typical homes in the North-West of England.Methods Mite counts and Der p 1 levels were measured at 3-monthly intervals over a period of 1 year in 18 houses (nine with MVHR units and nine architecturally matched control houses). Paired dust samples were collected using a vacuum cleaner with an air-flow rate 451/sec, adapted to collect the sample onto a preweighed filter paper. A 1 m2 area of bedroom carpet, living room carpet and mattress was sampled for 2min. Indoor temperature and relative humidity (RH) levels were recorded for a period of 1 week before and after the winter period (November and February: 3 and 6 months data sets). The environmental questionnaire was completed at the beginning and at the end of the study.Results No difference in either Der p 1 concentrations or mite counts in any of the sampling sites at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months as compared with the baseline values was found, both within and between the groups (P 〉 0.1). The measured levels of RH performed in autumn and winter were found to be lower in the MVHR houses compared to the architectural controls. The indoor temperature during each period did not differ between the groups. Questionnaire data showed that the severity of condensation improved in the MVHR homes, whilst during the winter period, the severity of condensation had increased in the architectural control group.Conclusions The MVHR unit does not reduce indoor humidity to levels capable of retarding mite population growth and decreasing mile allergens in the type of houses predominantly found in the mild and humid climate of the North-West of England.

    Notizen: The impact of chronic urticaria (CU) on the quality of life is undocumented. We assessed quality of life in patients with CU, including patients with associated delayed pressure urticaria (DPU). One hundred and forty–two out–patients completed self–administered questionnaires: a disease–specific, purpose designed questionnaire, and the Nottingham health profile (NHP). Many patients reported problems attributable to their skin condition in facets of everyday life including home management, personal care, recreation and social interaction, mobility, emotional factors, sleep, rest and work. The NHP part I scores showed restriction in the areas of mobility, sleep, energy, and demonstrated pain, social isolation and altered emotional reactions. Part II of the NHP showed that patients experienced difficulties in relation to work, looking after the home, social life, home relationships, sex life, hobbies and holidays. The patients with DPU had significantly more problems with mobility, gardening and choice of clothing than the uncomplicated CU patients. They also suffered more pain, had more problems with work and were more restricted in their hobbies.

    Notizen: Patient–generated dermatology quality of life scales (DQOLS) were developed to assess the impact of skin conditions on patients' psychosocial state and everyday activities. The items were derived from the self–reported impacts of their skin condition by 50 dermatology out–patients. The resulting 17 psychosocial items and 12 activities items were assigned five–point scales and self–completed by 118 out–patients. Factor analyses grouped the items into four psychosocial subscales (embarrassment, despair, irritableness, distress) and four activities subscales (everyday, summer, social, sexual). Tests of the psychometric properties indicated that the internal consistency of responses was high, with Cronbach's α coefficients of 0.92 for the 17 psychosocial items and 0.83 for the 12 activity items. Assessment of reliability based on 41 psoriasis patients attending phototherapy treatment identified good short–term test–retest reliability, with intraclass correlation coefficients of 0.84 for both the psychosocial and activities scales. Construct validity was confirmed by the ability of the scales to identify clinically expected differences and their greater sensitivity to the impacts of skin problems compared with a widely used generic health status measure. The DQOLS thus form a robust measure of patient–perceived impacts. They were quickly self–completed and provide information that complements traditional clinical indicators. These scales should assist in informing treatment decisions by identifying impacts of different skin conditions and variations in responses among social and cultural groups, as well as guiding priorities for services within the specialty.
