    Notes:
    Many studies have demonstrated the short-term efficacy of stimulant drugs in decreasing the symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). However, long-term studies have not shown a similar effect. In this study, we report an audit of the medium-term outcome of 50 children with ADHD referred to a mental health service and treated with stimulants for at least 6 months. A poor outcome group was identified consisting of 30% of the children. As a group, they received a significantly higher dose of stimulant. More studies, with prospective design, are required to examine the medium-term outcome of children with ADHD on medication.

    Summary Background Keloids are characterized by abnormal proliferation of fibroblasts and overproduction of collagen. Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I is mitogenic for fibroblasts and a stimulatory factor for collagen synthesis. Objectives We have assessed the in vitro effects of quercetin on proliferation, collagen synthesis and the expression of the IGF system in keloid-derived fibroblasts. Methods Fibroblasts were isolated from earlobe keloids and exposed to quercetin at different concentrations. The inhibitory effects of quercetin on fibroblast proliferation were assayed using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, Western and Northern blot analyses. Results Quercetin inhibited keloid fibroblast (KF) proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. Significant growth inhibition was observed on day 2 of culture. The dose required for 50% growth inhibition was approximately 25 µg mL−1. Collagen 1 expression was significantly decreased while collagen 3 was almost undetectable following quercetin treatment. Basal levels of IGF-I receptor (IGF-IR) β subunits, p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, c-Raf, phospho-Raf-1, phospho-MEK 1/2, phospho-mitogen-activated protein kinase, phospho-Elk-1 and phospho-Akt-1 were significantly reduced when KF cells were exposed to quercetin for 24 h. Blocking IGF-IR activity with IGF-IR antibody or neutralizing endogenous IGF-I activity with IGF-I antibody led to significant growth inhibition suggesting the role of IGF-I in regulation of KF proliferation. Conclusions Because the IGF system plays an important part in fibroblast cell proliferation and collagen production, the described activities of quercetin on the IGF system and collagen expression may provide a novel approach for the use of quercetin in treatment and/or prevention of hypertrophic scar and keloid.

    Abstract The workability and mechanical properties of mortar containing shredded automobile and truck tyres were evaluated. Two different shapes of rubber particles were used as constituents of mortar: (1) granules about 2 mm in diameter, and (2) shreds having two sizes which were, nominally, 5.5 mm×1.2 mm and 10.8 mm×1.8 mm (length×diameter). As expected, the geometry of the rubber particles influenced the fracture behaviour of rubber-containing mortar. The addition of rubber led to a decrease in flexural strength and plastic shrinkage cracking of mortar. The crack width and crack length due to plastic shrinkage were reduced for mortar containing the 10.8×1.8 mm rubber shreds compared with a mortar without shreds. The rheological properties of the mortar containing rubber shreds were comparable to those of a mortar without rubber and yielded lower plastic viscosity than a mortar containing 25.4 mm×15 μm (length×diameter) polypropylene fibres. The alkaline stability of rubber in mortar was also evaluated by immersing rubber shreds in NaOH and Ca(OH)2 solutions for 4 mon and the results showed that there is less than 20% change in stress and strain value. The findings of the research suggest that automobile and truck tyres can be recycled by shredding and incorporating them into mortar and probably concrete for certain infrastructural applications. © 1998 Chapman & Hall
