    Notes: This study investigates the differences in purchasing behavior between the US and French cosmetic markets. Our study suggests that a difference should exist due to psychological factors, social influences, and the purchase situation. Our paper will discuss the underlying theoretical perspectives that support our proposition, and illustrate the various components which influence consumer behavior in this particular marketplace. The analysis and investigation is based on the cosmetic industry in terms of comparing US and French consumers and their historical purchase patterns. The results indicate that there are in fact notable differences in purchase behavior. The implications of these findings are important in two primary ways. First, the findings provide support for the theoretical underpinnings. Second, the findings have important managerial implications in terms of developing appropriate product development, distribution and marketing strategies.

    Notes: Abstract Diffusion-weighted (DWI) echo-planar (EPI) MRI has been used for imaging acute ischaemic stroke. We used DWI and conventional spin-echo (SE) MRI to study the dynamics of ischaemic human stroke. We examined 30 patients (mean age 57.5 years, range 27–82 years, median 57 years) with a diagnosis of stroke. They were examined in the acute (120 min to 47 h, mean 15.3 h), subacute (8 days) and chronic (2–3 months) stages of ischaemia using clinical scores and MRI. Imaging was performed on an 1.5-T imager. Anisotropic DWI with diffusion gradients in all three axes, an isotropic tensor trace pulse DWI sequence and SE MRI were used. In all patients both DWI sequences showed a decrease in the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) in the acute stage, even when SE images did not reveal signal abnormalities. Clinical features correlated with lesion site but not size. The ADC was initially 19.6–43 % less than that of nonischaemic tissue and increased to normal after 7 days in conventionally treated patients and after 2–5 days in patients who underwent intra-arterial fibrinolysis. In the chronic stage the ADC rose by up to 254.4 %. In patients who did not undergo fibrinolysis DWI changes correlated with the final infarct size (P 〈 0.05). It was possible to differentiate acute from chronic ischaemic lesions. We conclude that DWI is a sensitive and practicable tool for detecting early cerebral ischaemia. It is possible to predict in the acute stage the final size of an infarct. DWI may be helpful for clinical decisions and for monitoring therapy.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Reports of accidental alkaloid-intoxications with plants of the nightshade family, in particular Datura-species are well known in pediatric care. The intentional abuse as a hallucinogenic drug in adolescents became more frequent in recent years. Two patients, a 14- resp. 16-year old boy were admitted to the intensive care units of our hospitals because of a severe central anticholinergic syndrome after ingestion of tea from Angel’s Trumpet blossoms for experimental reasons. Patient’s history in the first somnolent patient was not available at the time of admission, a routine immunological drug screening of the patient’s urine had been negative. Discussion: Prominent central nervous symptoms as unconsciousness or hallucinations in adolescents without further explanation should suggest a special toxicological analysis for tropan-alcaloids e.g. scopolamine because of increasing abuse of plants containing the drug.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Akzidentelle Intoxikationen von Nachtschattengewächsen bei Kindern sind bereits häufiger beschrieben worden. In jüngster Zeit nimmt der bewußte Mißbrauch insbesondere von Daturaarten als Rauschmittel bei Heranwachsenden deutlich zu. Wir berichten über 2 14 bzw. 16jährige Jugendliche, die aus Experimentierfreudigkeit einen Tee aus Engelstrompetenblüten getrunken hatten und sich wegen eines ausgeprägten zentralen anticholinergen Syndroms auf unseren Intensivstationen behandeln lassen mußten. Im ersten Fall, einem somnolenten Patienten, war zunächst keine Anamnese verfügbar, ein immunologisches Drogen-Screening im Urin blieb ohne richtungsweisendes Ergebnis. Diskussion: Auch bei im Vordergrund stehender Bewußtseinstrübung oder paranoid-halluzinatorischen Symptomen sollte insbesondere bei Jugendlichen an eine Ingestion von Tropanalkaloiden bzw. eine Skopolaminintoxikation durch Ziergewächse wie Engelstrompete oder Stechapfel gedacht und gezielt danach gesucht werden.
