    Notes: Abstract The nutritional status of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients has to be regularly evaluated and alimentary support instituted when indicated. Bio-electrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a recent method for determining body composition. The present study evaluates its use in CF patients without any clinical sign of malnutrition. Thirty-nine patients with CF and 39 healthy subjects aged 6–24 years were studied. Body density and midarm muscle circumference were determined by anthropometry and skinfold measurements. Fat-free mass was calculated taking into account the body density. Muscle mass was obtained from the urinary creatinine excretion rate. The resistance index was calculated by dividing the square of the subject's height by the body impedance. We show that fat-free mass, mid-arm muscle circumference and muscle mass are each linearly correlated to the resistance index and that the regression equations are similar for both CF patients and healthy subjects.

    Notes: Abstract The light charged particles emitted in the40Ar+68Zn reaction performed at 14.6, 19.6 and 35 MeV/nucleon have been studied inclusively. The energy spectra have been analysed in terms of preequilibrium emission, moving source and coalescence models. A complete coherence between the present data and those obtained separately from heavy fragment studies is achieved. These data are consistent with the onset of projectile fragmentation between 20 and 35 MeV/nucleon correlated with the formation of a highly excited region of the nuclear system inducing light particle emission. The other sources of light particles can be interpreted as statistical and sequential decay of the quasi projectile.
