    Notes: Abstract Objective: The effects of slow diurnal hemodialysis (slow HD) on amino acid losses and nitrogen balance were studied. Design: Slow HD was conducted for 10 h during the day at the dialysate flow rate of 30 ml/min. The patients received total parenteral nutrition including 40 g of amino acids (6.08 g of nitrogen). The amino acid concentrations in plasma and dialysate were determined and the daily nitrogen balance was calculated from the urea nitrogen appearance. Patients: Six critically ill patients with renal failure were entered into the study. Results: Slow HD eliminated 48.5±4.4 mmol (6.2±0.6 g) of amino acids, representing 16% of the daily amino acid load. The estimated nitrogen balance was –2.3±1.3 g/day. Amino acid nitrogen lost in the dialysate was 1.0±0.1 g, contributing 43% of the daily negative nitrogen balance. Conclusion: The amount of amino acid losses during slow HD should be taken into consideration when designing nutritional schedules for maintaining positive nitrogen balance in critically ill patients.

    Notes: Abstract. The objective of our study was to clarify the radiologic spectrum of disease entities belonging to the SAPHO syndrome (SAPHO being an acronym for synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, and osteitis). A retrospective analysis of radiologic data was undertaken to determine the relationship of the osteoarthritic changes seen in palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP, n = 179), acne (n = 3), psoriasis vulgaris (PsV, n = 355), generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP, n = 25), and chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO, n = 4). Osseous changes of PPP, acne, and CRMO overlap each other; 7 PPP, 2 acne, and 3 CRMO patients manifested stenocostoclavicular hyperostosis as well as hyperostosis of the spine, pelvis, and/or femur. These findings were not seen in either PsV or GPP patients. Thirteen PsV and 4 GPP patients had peripheral arthritis and/or symmetrical sacroiliitis, which were not observed in the PPP, acne, and CRMO patients. The PPP, acne, and CRMO patients may be grouped as belonging to the single disease entity, namely SAPHO syndrome. Our findings do not support the inclusion of PsV and GPP in the spectrum of this syndrome.

    Notes: The method of XAFS measurements at high temperatures and pressures for supercritical fluids with high critical constants have been developed. An internally heated high-pressure vessel made of super-high-tension steel and a polycrystalline sapphire cell of our own design permit XAFS measurement up to 800 bar. XAFS experiments were carried out at high temperatures up to 1600 °C, and high pressures up to 150 bar. XAFS spectra of liquid Se at 1300 °C and 150 bar, and dense Se vapor at 1600 °C and 150 bar have been obtained and clear oscillations are observed at these temperatures. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Lattice-matched (Δa/a=0.09%) ScAlMgO4(0001) substrates were employed to grow single crystalline quality ZnO films by laser molecular-beam epitaxy. Extremely smooth surface represented by atomically flat terraces and half unit cell (0.26 nm) high steps and extremely small orientation fluctuations both in-plane (〈0.02°) and out-of-plane (〈0.01°) are achieved. The films have high mobility (∼100 cm2/V s) together with low residual carrier concentration (∼1015 cm−3). Excellent optical properties, including a clear doublet of A and B exciton peaks in absorption spectra, were also observed. These features could not be simultaneously achieved for ZnO films grown on sapphire(0001) having a large lattice mismatch (Δa/a=18%). © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A variable output coupling scheme is described for a stretched-pulse polarization additive pulse mode-locked (APM) fiber ring laser. The scheme allows the coupling percentage to be changed while the laser is running and allows for the maximum possible power extraction before cavity losses inhibit mode-locked operation. We describe how the nonlinear pulse dynamics change to compensate the change in cavity loss. Compared to high power output coupling schemes that use the APM rejection port, this method provides cleaner output pulses at comparable output powers. Pulse energies of 0.39 nJ are obtained at 48% output coupling in a diode-pumped system. 88 fs pulses with time-bandwidth products of 0.49 are obtained after output chirp compensation using a silicon prism pair. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Power extraction from a high-power soliton fiber ring laser containing a chirped fiber grating is investigated with a variable output coupler. Comparisons are made between the intracavity pulse and the rejection port output pulse. It is shown that a good design for extracting high quality pulses at high power is to insert an intracavity filter to suppress spectral sideband generation and to take the output from the rejection port. The results should apply in general to soliton fiber lasers. Gain saturation is shown to be the main mechanism in the laser that compensates for changes in cavity loss. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The noise characteristics of a polarization additive pulse mode-locked erbium-doped fiber soliton ring laser are examined. Relaxation oscillations are found only when the cw background copropagates with the soliton and not when the soliton operates alone. This observation proves that the mode-locked pulse stream has a strong self-stabilization that exempts the soliton from the relaxation oscillations, leading to extremely quiet operation. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Stretched-pulse additive pulse mode-locked fiber lasers use fibers with opposite signs of group velocity dispersion to introduce large changes of pulse width per pass and avoid excessive nonlinearity. We have investigated these intracavity pulse dynamics. Optimal points for output coupling and for the placement of the artificial absorber element in the cavity are determined for a fiber ring laser. The dispersion balance is important for the generation of clean sub-100 fs pulses, but the net cavity length is found to be relatively uncritical. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The optical performance of platinum–carbon multilayers deposited onto different substrates has been examined. Specular reflectivity and non-specular diffuse scattering were measured to study the replication of substrate roughness into the multilayer structure. Surface topography was measured before and after deposition using a scanning probe microscope and a mechanical profiler.

    Notes: Multilayer supermirrors stacked with three sets of Pt/C combinations have been fabricated on a flat float-glass and conical replica foil mirror using a magnetron DC sputtering system, and applied to X-ray optical systems in the hard X-ray region. The design of the supermirror is optimized to obtain the highest integrated reflectivity in the energy band and at the grazing angle concerned. X-ray reflectivities of 30% in the 25–35 keV band at an incidence angle of 0.3° were obtained.
