    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Entre Janvier 1980 et Décembre 1991, nous avons opéré 295 patients ayant un cancer gastrique. Chez 166 (56.3%), l'exérèse a été jugée curative. Chez 93 (56%) des cas, il s'agissait d'une gastrectomie subtotale alors que dans 73 (44%) cas, une gastrectomie totale a été pratiquée. Dans tous les cas une lymphadénectomie du type D-2 lui a été associée. La morbidité globale a été de 23% et la mortalité hospitalière de 3.6%. La morbidité et la mortalité des deux types d'intervention différaient de façon statistiquement significative. La survie à 5 ans de la série en entier a été de 61.3%. Une analyse uni et multifactorielle a pu mettre en évidence une différence statistiquement significative en ce qui concerne la survie par rapport à la classification T-N (TNM), le nombre de ganglions réséqués et le nombre de ganglions envahis/nombre de ganglions enlevés. Cette analyse a permis d'identifier les malades à haut risque, indépendamment du site de l'envahissement lymphatique. La courbe de survie et la survie estimée à 5 ans étaient identiques selon que la tumeur a été classée intestinale ou diffuse selon Lauren. Cette classification n'a pas, pourtant, de valeur pronostique d'après les analyses uni et multifactorielle. A notre avis, la pénétration tumorale et le degré d'envahissement lymphatique sont les deux facteurs pronostiques les plus constants.
    Abstract: Resumen En el período enero 1980 a diciembre 1991 se operaron 295 pacientes con carcinoma gástrico. En 166 (56.3%), la cirugía fue realizada con intención curativa; en 93 (56%) se realizó gastrectomía subtotal y en 73 (44%) gastrectomía total. En la totalidad de los casos se realizó linfadenectomía “D-2”. La mortalidad global fue 23% y la mortalidad hospitalaria 3.6%. Las tasas de mortalidad y morbilidad de estas dos operaciones aparecieron significativamente diferentes. La sobrevida global a cinco años estimada para la totalidad de la serie es de 61.3%. Los análisis uni y multivariables de acuerdo con la clasificación TNM, el número de ganglios positivos resecados y la relación positivos/resecados revelaron resultados estadísticamente diferentes. Este tipo de clasificación cuantitativa permitió la identificación de Grupos de alto riesgo independientes del lugar de la invasión ganglionar. Los tumores clasificados como intestinales o difusos (clasificación de Lauren), registraron similares curvas de sobrevida y de sobrevida estimada a cinco años (P=0.834). Mediante el análisis univariable y multivariable esta clasificación no demostró tener valor pronóstico en nuestro Grupo de pacientes. En nuestra opinión, el grado de penetración del tumor y la invasión ganglionar son los factores de pronóstico más confiables.
    Notes: Abstract From January 1980 to December 1991 we operated on 295 patients with a gastric carcinoma. In 166 cases (56.3%) surgery was performed with curative intent. In 93 patients (56%) a subtotal gastrectomy was performed, and in 73 cases (44%) a total gastrectomy. In all the cases a D-2 type lymphadenectomy was used. The global morbidity rate was 23%, and in-hospital mortality was 3.6%. The morbidity and mortality rates of these two operations were statistically different. Global 5-year survival estimate for the whole series is 61.3%. Univariate and multivariate analysis according to T and N (TNM classification), the number of positive nodes resected, and the relation of positive per resected nodes, revealed statistically different outcomes. This kind of quantitative classification allowed identification of high risk groups irrespective of site of nodal involvement. Tumors classified as intestinal or diffuse type by the Lauren classification had similar survival curves and 5-year survival estimates (p=0.834). By univariate and multivariate analysis this classification did not reveal a prognostic value in this group of patients. In our opinion, tumor penetration and lymph node involvement are at present the most reliable prognostic factors available.

    Notes: Core-level photoemission peaks taken on several insulators with spatial resolution of 30–300 μm rigidly shift in energy from place to place, most likely because of local charging effects. Such phenomena can affect the linewidth and the general lineshape of conventional, spatially integrated spectra even when a flood gun is used, which is one of the standard remedies against charging. This may require a critical revision of photoemission linewidths and lineshapes for many past experiments on insulators.

    Notes: The microchemical composition and the electronic structure of the two superconductors HgBa2Ca2Cu3O8+δ (Hg-1223) and HgBa2Ca1Cu2O6+δ (Hg-1212) were analyzed with the technique of photoemission with high spatial resolution. This enabled primary spectral peaks to be separated from their satellites due to local charging induced by the primary photon beam. Each sample contains superconducting and impurity phases with inhomogeneous spatial distributions. The oxygenation-induced increase in the critical temperature is related to a increase in the Cu-O plane carrier concentration.

    Notes: The efficacy and tolerance of topical administration (one drop in each eye q.i.d.) of levocabastine (0-5 mg/ml) was compared with that of sodium cromoglycate (20 mg/ml) and placebo in a 4-week double-blind trial in patients with seasonal allergic conjunctivitis. The investigator rated the treatment as globally good or excellent in significantly more patients treated with levocabastine (89%) than with cromoglycate (67%. P=0·03) or placebo (48%, P= 0·007). The patients felt that the treatment was more efficacious in 95% (levocabastine), 35% (cromoglycate) and 36% (placebo) of the cases in which they had taken previous antiallergic medication. Total symptom severity according to the patients' diary data was consistently lower with levocabastine than with cromoglycate or placebo for all ocular symptoms. The difference was mainly apparent at the beginning of treatment. The percentage of symptom-free days was higher in the levocabastine group (53%) than in the cromoglycate (31%, P= 0·02) and the placebo group (34%, P= 0·08). Particularly at high-pollen days, levocabastine was superior to cromoglycate in eliminating moderate or severe symptoms. Adverse effects did not occur more frequently with levocabastine or cromoglycate than with placebo. It is concluded that levocabastine is an efficacious, fast-acting and well-tolerated drug in the management of seasonal allergic conjunctivitis.

    Notes: We report magnetization measurements in the zero magnetostriction Co70.4Fe4.6Si15B10 amorphous alloy. The measurements were carried out from room temperature up to 430 °C and for applied magnetic fields up to 45 Oe. An irreversible behavior in the zero-field and field-cooled magnetization was observed. The irreversibility line was fitted to a de Almeida–Thouless line with a crossover critical exponent φ=4.66. The experimental results are analyzed in the framework of an extended random anisotropy model for amorphous ferromagnets.

    Notes: Internal photoemission phototransport measurements revealed 0.27±0.04 eV conduction- and valence-band discontinuities induced by a Si intralayer at p-GaAs(100)/n-GaAs(100) homojunctions. The interface dipole originating from the heterovalent character of the Si—GaAs bonds raises the bands of the GaAs overlayer above that of the GaAs substrate.

    Notes: Summary A culture of SRB growing in lactate was incubated at different pH values in the range of 5.8 to 7.0. Highest growth rates were observed at pH 6.6. Under gás (H2S) stripping conditions the specific growth rate decreased with the undissociated acetic acid produced. An inhibition of SRB growth of 50% was observed for undissociated acetic acid concentrations of approximately 54 mg/L.

    Notes: Summary Longitudinal strips were prepared from human uterine arteries obtained at hysterectomy. The artery had a low content of noradrenaline and dopamine, contrasting with a high content of the deaminated catechols, dihydroxyphenylglycol (DOPEG) and dihydroxymandelic acid (DOMA), which together represented 98% of endogenous catechols. When incubated with 3H-noradrenaline (0.1 μmol/l), the uterine artery removed, accumulated and metabolized noradrenaline. Deaminated metabolites predominated, DOMA being the most abundant metabolite. Cocaine markedly reduced the accumulation of 3H-noradrenaline and abolished 3H-DOPEG formation, but did not change 3H-DOMA. Selective monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors (clorgyline, selegiline and 2-amino ethyl carboxamide derivatives) caused a marked decrease in the amounts of 3H-DOPEG, 3H-DOMA and 3H-O-methylated and deaminated metabolites (OMDA) formed by the tissue and an increase in 3H-normetanephrine (NMN) formation. Inhibition of catechol-O-methyltransferase suppressed NMN formation and reduced that of OMDA; hydrocortisone slightly depressed the formation of DOMA and OMDA. Homogenates of the uterine artery deaminated 3H-5-HT, 14C-phenylethylamine and 3H-tyramine; inhibition curves of the deamination of 3H-tyramine by clorgyline and selegiline were compatible with the presence of both MOA A and MOA B. Exposure of the strips to 6-hydroxydopamine (1.5 mmol/l for 20 min; 3 exposure periods followed by washout periods of 15,15 and 30 min) resulted in complete and selective chemical denervation of the arterial tissue. This chemical denervation had effects which were similar to those of cocaine. The 2-amino ethyl carboxamide derivatives markedly reduced the formation of deaminated metabolites by the denervated strips. The semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase inhibitor semicarbazide reduced the formation of 3H-DOMA and 3H-DOPEG in intact strips, but was devoid of action in the denervated ones. It is concluded that, in the human uterine artery, deamination predominates over O-methylation and that extraneuronal deamination, leading to the formation of DOMA (and of OMDA) plays a major role in the metabolism even of low concentrations of exogenous noradrenaline.

    Notes: Summary The membrane phenotype of AML clonogenic cells (L-CFU) was analyzed in 19 AML patients using an in vitro culture technique after a complement-mediated lysis assay employing a panel of six monoclonal antibodies (McAb) -HLA-DR, FMC56 (CD9), FMC27 (CD9), CD14, CD15, CD41a-. Our results show that L-CFU has a heterogeneous but immature phenotype lacking on the expression of differentiation antigens (CD14, CD15, CD41a). In addition, we observed that the L-CFU phenotype is different from that of the whole blast cell population. Interestingly, L-CFU showed a higher expression of HLA-DR antigens with respect to their progeny. Upon analyzing whether the L-CFU phenotype was related to both the morphological and immunological features of AML blast cells, it was observed that, while there is no correlation with the FAB classification, there was a partial relationship between the immunological phenotype of AML blast cells and that of L-CFU. Accordingly, the more immature AML cases showed a more differentiated L-CFU phenotype (HLA-DR+, CD9+, FMC27+) when compared with cases with a more mature blast cell phenotype. These results suggest that those AML cases with a relatively immature myeloblastic phenotype may arise from a progenitor cell that has undergone partial differentiation and that is unable to acquire myeloid differentiation antigens, while those AML cases with mature blast cells might emerge from a very early L-CFU that has the capacity to undergo a greater degree of differentiation.
