    Notes: The room-temperature absorption coefficient and ordinary refractive index for a ∼0.4-μm-thick p-type wurtzite Al0.09Ga0.91N epitaxial layer were determined via optical transmission measurements. The layer was grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition and heavily doped (∼5×1019 cm−3) with Mg. Additional measurements of the refractive index by prism coupling to the layer confirmed the transmission results. The low-temperature AlN buffer layer altered the expected interference fringes of the transmission spectrum below the band-gap energy and had to be accounted for in the analysis. The absorption coefficient exhibited band-tail effects and had a reduced slope near band-gap energy as compared to undoped GaN. Using a detailed balance argument, the reduced slope was consistent with the lack of a peak in the continuous-wave photoluminescent emission. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Optical-field profiles in wide-band-gap AlxGa1−xN/InxGa1−xN multiple-quantum well (MQW) separate-confinement heterostructure (SCH) laser diodes (LDs) were calculated using a 2×2 transfer-matrix approach that accommodates complex refractive indices. The refractive indices of AlxGa1−xN and InxGa1−xN were approximated by shifting the refractive index of GaN according to the band-gap energy of the solid solution. Current LDs were analyzed and show reasonable optical confinement. Optimization of the SCH waveguide for a three MQW active region was performed by varying the waveguide and cladding layer thicknesses. For 0.8μm thick Al0.10Ga0.90N cladding layers, waveguides on sapphire and SiC substrates had a maximum confinement factor of ∼3.3%. Layers outside of the waveguide strongly affected the optical field for thin (∼0.4 μm) cladding layer thicknesses and resulted in resonant coupling of the light out of the waveguide. Sapphire substrates were found to enhance light confinement, while SiC substrates were found to reduce optical confinement as the cladding layer thickness is reduced. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Dispersion of the ordinary and extraordinary indices of refraction for wurtzite AlxGa1−xN epitaxial layers with x=0.00, 0.04, 0.08, 0.11, and 0.20 in the range of wavelengths 457〈λ〈980 nm were measured via a prism-coupled waveguide technique. The quantitative accuracy of x is ±10% and the accuracy of the refractive indices is ∼±0.01. The dispersion is found to be well described by a 1st-order Sellmeier dispersion formula. A simple functional form is presented that allows calculation of the refractive indices as functions of x and λ. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: GTP-binding rab proteins, present in synaptic vesicles and endocrine secretory granules, have been shown to be involved in the control of regulated exocytosis. We found rab3 proteins in immunoblots of diverse areas of the mouse central nervous system (spinal cord, olfactory bulb, hippocampus, cerebellum and neocortex). Immunohistochemical observations at light- and electron-microscopical levels in the hippocampus and other areas revealed rab3 proteins in virtually all synaptic fields and terminals of the areas investigated. In the retina, rab3A immunoreactivity was confined to the inner and outer plexiform layers. Ultrastructural examination revealed that rab3A was present in conventional terminals in the inner plexiform layer and in horizontal cell processes of the outer plexiform layer. In contrast ribbon synapses, which play a key role in transferring information from the photoreceptor cells to the central nervous system, were immunonegative. We also tested whether other proteins of the rab3 family are present in ribbon synapses. However, using an antibody recognizing rab3B and rab3C in addition to rab3A, we found no immunoreactivity in these synapses. Interestingly, we observed also no immunoreactivity for synaptosomal-associated protein 25 (SNAP-25) in ribbon synapses, but conventional synapses and horizontal cell processes were heavily stained. Our data show that the known rab3 and SNAP-25 isoforms, which are components of the secretory apparatus of conventional synapses, are absent from ribbon synapses of the retina. Our observations suggest different mechanisms of transmitter exocytosis in conventional and ribbon terminals.

    Notes: The biological behaviour of meningeal haemangiopericytomas was retrospectively studied using immunohistochemical staining with MIB1, a monoclonal antibody against the Ki-67 antigen, a nuclear protein related to cell proliferation. Paraffin-embedded material from 62 tumours from 40 patients were investigated. The proliferating compartment of the tumours was estimated by evaluating the MIB1 staining index, i.e. the percentage of MIB1 positive nuclei in at least 1000 counted tumour cells in representative areas. The staining index ranged from 1.24% to 39.01%. Statistical analysis revealed no significant correlation between the staining index and recurrence-free survival (χ2 = 0.3922, P = 0.5311). Long-term observation (〉100 months), however, revealed a tendency to longer survival in the group with a staining index less than 5%. According to our results, the MIB1 staining index does not contribute to the accuracy of predicting the clinical outcome of meningeal haemangiopericytomas.

    Notes: Abstract The adsorption of N-ethylpyrrolidone (NEP), oligomeric and polymeric vinylpyrrolidone (OVP, PVP) on silica (Aerosil 200) from CHCl3 solution is investigated by IR spectrometry. The influence of the annealing temperature of the silica on the adsorbed amount and on the fraction of adhered segments was studied. The dependences of the amount adsorbed on solution concentration result for NEP in a Langmuir isotherm for OVP and PVP in high affinity isotherms. The fraction of adhered H-bridged carbonyl groups determined by compensation procedures, the fraction of surface SiOH groups occupied and the multiple interaction quotientQ show different dependences on the amount adsorbed for the measured adsorptives, indicating different interactions of the monomeric segments with the surface groups. This behaviour is explained by comparing the amount adsorbed in saturation with monolayer capacities, surface concentration of SiOH groups and frequency shifts. A splitting of the band of the bound carbonyl groups in a double peak was observed with OVP and PVP, referring to an additional interaction of polymer segments neighboured to specifically bound segments.

    Notes: Abstract Adsorption enthalpies of N-ethylpyrrolidone, oligomeric and polymeric vinylpyrrolidone from CHCl3 solution on silica interfaces (Aerosil 200) have been measured at 25 °C by microcalorimetry. The dependence on surface coverage has been examined using measured adsorption isotherms. Binding enthalpies are calculated with fractions of adhered segments obtained by IR spectrometry and wetting enthalpies received from calorimetry. Fractions of adhered segments are derived from the adsorption enthalpies assuming equal binding enthalpies of monomers and polymer segments and considering desorption enthalpies of the solvent depending on the surface area of the polymer segments. The resulting enthalpies are compared with literature values from other solvents and the incongruity of the fraction of adhered segments obtained by IR, ESR, NMR and microcalorimetry is explained.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Venöse Abflußstörungen des Gehirns werden mit unterschiedlicher Häufigkeit im Obduktionsgut aufgeführt. Neben entzündlichen Prozessen, hämorheologischen Störungen und Neoplasien kommen bei der forensischen Begutachtung traumatische Ursachen für die Genese von Thrombosen in Frage. Berichtet wird über eine 14 Jahre alt gewordene Schülerin, die 2 1/2 Tage nach einer tätlichen Auseinandersetzung verstarb. Anamnestisch wurde von einer Colitis ulcerosa berichtet. Initial waren weder äußere Verletzungen noch neurologische Auffälligkeiten erkennbar. In der Nacht wurde sie komatös in der Klinik aufgenommen. Die kranielle computertomographische Untersuchung zeigte eine zunehmende intraventrikuläre und intrazerebrale Blutung, Zeichen der venösen Stauung und ein Hirnödem. Die Patientin verstarb im dissoziierten Hirntod. Neuropathologisch fand sich eine in Organisation stehende Thrombose des Sinus sagittalis superior, die sich in die inneren Hirnvenen fortsetzte und die durch die entzündliche Darmerkrankung verursacht war. Eine traumatische Genese war somit auszuschließen.
    Notes: Abstract Thromboses of the cerebral veins which occur at a frequency of 3.75 to 9.3% in autopsy material are caused by local or systemic inflammatory processes, hematological disorders, neoplasms or traumatic brain damage. We report on a 14-year-old girl who suffered from colitis ulcerosa during the last 4 years of life. Immediately after a brawl with a schoolboy she complained of headache and vertigo, but no physical abnormality was detected by the physician. She was admitted to the hospital after becoming comatose during the following night. On neurological examination she was comatous with a decerebrate state, the pupils were small and non-reactive to light, divergent ocular bulbi and bilateral extensor plantar responses. A cerebral computer tomogramm showed a cerebral edema and a hemorrhage in the left basal ganglia and both cerebral ventricles which subsequently increased to the right cerebral ganglia, the corpus callosum and the right cerebral hemisphere. Despite antiedematous therapy the girl died on the second day after the brawl. A neuropathology examination revealed thrombosis of the superior sagittal sinus extending to the internal cerebral veins and a bilateral hemorrhagic infarction of the thalamus and the basal ganglia with intraventricular hemorrhage. As the thrombus in the sagittal sinus showed signs of organisation, a postraumatic origin alone is improbable and a hemorrheological disorder due to colitis ulcerosa seemed to be the main cause.

    Notes: Abstract Medullomyoblastoma is a rare variant of medulloblastoma containing myoblastic elements. A 9-year-old boy developed a cerebellar syndrome and signs of increased intracranial pressure, the cause of which was a tumor of the cerebellar vermis measuring 7 × 4.5 × 4.5 cm. Morphologically the tumor largely consisted of a medulloblastoma component but displayed glial, myoblastic and ganglionic differentiation on light microscopic, immunohistochemical and ultrastructural examination. The non-enhancing rim of the tumor on magnetic resonance imaging showed extensive ganglionic differentiation. The tumor did not express bcl-2, c-myc, or c-erb-B2 oncoproteins and was negative for the p53 gene product. On molecular genetic studies, the tumor did not show allelic loss on chromosome loci, frequently altered in medulloblastomas, such as 17p, 1q and 9q.
