    Notes:
    Serial blood glucose estimations were made in 30 women undergoing elective Caesarean section under epidural anaesthesia, 2 litres of Hartmannb solution having been rapidly infused as a circulatory preload. Neonatal blood glucose estimations were made of cord blood at birth and 1 and 2 hours post delivery. A smull rise in maternal blood glucose occurred during the period of preloading and time before delivery, which was not statistically significant (p〈0.05). There was no biochemical or clinical evidence of neonatal liypoglwaemia. We conclude that despite rapid infusion of non-dextrose crystalloid solution there is neither danger of u relative maternal hypoglycaemia in fasted mothers nor neonatal hypoglycaemia, and offer an argument that even small amounts of dextrose contained in any preloading mixture are unnecessary.

    Notes:
    A two-stage propofol infusion combined with fentanyl was wed to maintain anaesthesia during coronary artery surgery in patients with good ventricular function. Whole blood propofol concentrations were measured at frequent intervals; plasma protein binding was measured before, during and after cardiopulmonary bypass. An initial infusion rate of 10 mg/kg/hour provided good protection from the pressor response to sternotomy. A predictable steady state concentration was achieved in the prebypass period with a maintenance infusion rate of 3 mg/kg/hour. The onset of bypass resulted in a small decrease in propofol concentration as a result of haemodilution. Induced hypothermia resulted in an increase in propofol concentration which returned rapidly to the prebypass steady state value during rewarming. The free propofol fraction increased during cardiopulmonary bypass. No patient had any recall of operative events or required inotropic support during weaning from bypass.

    Notes:
    Background:  Sweet syndrome (SS), a paraneoplastic syndrome characterized by fever, neutrophilia, multiple erythematous painful plaques, and a dense dermal neutrophilic infiltration, has a known association with hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenous leukemia. However, no clear association with multiple myeloma (MM) has been reported.Materials and methods:  Pathology reports of the 2357 patients with multiple myeloma at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences were reviewed to retrieve cases who had developed SS. Cytogenetic studies and immunoglobulin secretory status were retrieved. Five cases of SS in MM and 25 cases of SS in patients without MM underwent syndecan-1 immunohistochemistry.Observations:  Six cases of SS occurring in the setting of MM showed a predominance in patients secreting IgG paraprotein. Five of the six patients received granulocyte-colony stimulating factor while the sixth received granulocyte-monocyte-colony stimulating factor. Fifty percent showed a non-specific cytogenetic anomaly.Conclusions:  There is no specific cytogenetic anomaly associated with SS in the setting of MM. This paraneoplastic syndrome may be secondary to elevated levels of granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), possibly with a component of enhanced sensitivity to endogenous G-CSF. The immunoglobulin secretory status parallels that seen in MM with cutaneous involvement, but IgG secretors may be at an increased risk of developing SS compared with their counterparts who secrete other immunoglobulins.

    Notes:
    Myo-inositol bis-, tris-, tetrakis-, pentakis- and hexakisphosphates (IP2–6) were quantified in nine thermally processed or fermented food products. Total inositol phosphate content (mmol/kg dry weight) ranged from 1.35 in white bread to 23.26 in tofu and 26.05 in soy isolate. In all foods analyzed, inositol hexakisphosphate (phytic acid) accounted for more than 40% of the total inositol phosphates on a molar basis. Step-gradient ion exchange and ferric chloride precipitation methods for phytate determination were evaluated with a soy isolate sample to which inositol phosphates or adenosine triphosphate (ATP) had been added individually. Both methods measured all of the inositol phosphates, while the former also measured ATP.

    Notes:
    TO identify the most sensitive adverse effects of high dietary zinc, day-old Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix juponica) were fed diets marginally deficient, adequate or slightly elevated in copper with supplements of 15.6–2000 ppm zinc. By 14 days of age, sensitive zinc antagonisms of copper, iron and manganese were evident. The supplemental zinc caused depressed growth, decreased feather pigmentation, mild perosis and anemia; the first three generally being more severe when dietary copper was marginally deficient. The duodenum and liver accumulated zinc in relation to the dietary zinc level. Supplemental zinc caused decreased levels of iron, manganese and copper in the liver. The adequacy of copper intake is important when zinc intake is increased by use of dietary supplements or fortification of foods.

    Notes:
    We investigated the implications of early maturation in a central Ontario population of pumpkinseed (Lepomis gibbosus) by comparing the growth trajectory, body condition, lipid to body weight ratio and past growth history of mature and immature females through the 1992 growing season. Pumpkinseeds were sampled from Beloporine Lake from May 28 to July 24 and on November 20, just prior to freeze-up of the lake. Prior growth history and length at age were determined by backcalculation from scale annuli. Nearly all females age 3 and older had matured in 1992, so we focused on age 2 females (22% mature). Females that matured at age 2 were significantly larger at the end of their first year of life than those that did not mature at age 2, although there was no significant difference between groups in the prior year's growth rate. The mature age 2 females were significantly larger than immatures, at the beginning and end of their third growing season, but not during the June 2 - July 19 breeding season. The condition factor of mature females was higher than that of immature females on all but one collection date. However, the mean somatic lipid-to-body weight ratio was higher in immature females on all sample dates and significantly higher over the grwing season. We conclude that the costs of early maturation include lack of length and weight gain during the breeding season, and loss of stored lipid. The latter may be associated with increased overwinter mortality.

    Notes:
    Pumpkinseed Lepomis gibbosus and rock bass Ambloplites rupestris stream populations of both sexes were significantly different in external morphology from lake populations in a central Ontario, Canada, watershed. The predictions that stream fishes would be more slender-bodied, and have a more anterior placement of lateral fins than lake fishes were generally supported. The prediction that stream fishes would have a more robust caudal peduncle was partially supported. The prediction that fin size would be larger in stream fishes was not supported, as lake rock bass generally had longer and wider fins than those from stream sites. The results suggest that in some species, smaller fins may be favoured in stream-dwelling individuals because the reduction of drag during swimming more than compensates for their reduced power and propulsion efficiency in a current. Smaller fin size in stream-dwelling centrarchids may be related to their body shape, or to their low usage of fast-moving water within the streams they inhabit.

    Notes:
    Trophically dimorphic pumpkinseed populations were investigated in five lakes in Ontario, Canada to determine: (1) whether the morphological traits that distinguish littoral from pelagic forms are consistent among populations; (2) whether the pharyngeal jaw apparatus is diminished in pelagic pumpkinseeds because of a lower proportion of hard-bodied prey in their diets; (3) whether there is life-history differentiation between littoral and pelagic forms. Pumpkinseeds captured from the littoral and pelagic zones differed significantly in morphology in four of the five lakes, but the number of external measures that differed significantly within the differentiated populations ranged from zero to six. Littoral pumpkinseeds generally had longer heads, more rearward placement of dorsal and pectoral fins, longer pectoral fins and deeper bodies than pelagic pumpkinseeds. Littoral and pelagic pumpkinseeds were more readily differentiated by internal morphometric measures, with littoral individuals having larger molars and wider spacing between gill rakers than pelagic individuals. Littoral and pelagic differences in age at maturity, size at maturity and gonado-somatic index were present only in one of three populations assessed for these traits, suggesting that morphological divergence is not necessarily accompanied by life-history differentiation.

    Notes:
    Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic element that has no known beneficial effects in living organisms. At levels several-fold above the average intake of 50 μg/day for man in the U.S., Cd can interfere with the metabolism of the essential elements iron, calcium, zinc, manganese and copper. Antagonism of the first two elements has been observed in man and the last three in experimental animals only. When Cd was fed to young Japanese quail at levels ranging from 0.78 to 80 mg/kg diet, Cd was markedly concentrated in duodenal tissue at the lowest intake levels. Maximal duodenal Cd concentrations were obtained with 20 mg Cd/kg diet. Dietary Cd caused decreased concentrations of essential mineral elements in duodenal and other tissues. A major effect of high levels of dietary Cd appears to be interference with absorption of essential minerals. Excess dietary intakes of essential minerals can either decrease or eliminate some of these effects of Cd, as well as result in decreased Cd concentrations in the kidney, a target organ for Cd accumulation and functional damage. Environmental toxicants such as Cd cannot be completely avoided. It is important, therefore, to define low intake levels of essential nutrients at which toxicity of Cd is exacerbated and high intake levels of essential nutrients at which toxicity of Cd is minimized.

    Notes:
    We examined attributes of growth and reproduction in 19 populations of pumpkinseed (Lepomis gibbosus) introduced into southern England in order to: (i) assess variability of these traits in a northern European climate; (ii) assess inter-relationships among these variables; and (iii) compare these attributes with populations from other parts of Europe where pumpkinseeds have been introduced. Growth rates varied considerably among populations, but juvenile growth rates and adult body sizes were generally among the lowest in Europe. Mean age at maturity ranged from 2.0 to 3.9, and was strongly predicted by the juvenile growth rate (earlier maturity with faster juvenile growth). Other population parameters that also displayed significant negative associations with mean age at maturity were gonadosomatic index, body condition, and adult body size (total length, TL at age 5). Mean TL at maturity and the adult growth increment showed no significant associations with any of the other growth or life-history variables. Pumpkinseed populations in England matured significantly later than those introduced into warmer, more southerly areas of the continental Europe. All of these data suggest that a combination of cool summer temperatures and resource limitation is the cause of slow growth, small adult body size and delayed maturity relative to introduced populations on the European mainland.

    Notes:
    We examine the evolving concept of what constitutes a non-native (or alien) freshwater fish. In an attempt to distinguish between biogeographical and socio-political perspectives, we review the patterns in the introduction and dispersal of non-native fishes in Europe and North America, and especially the recent expansion of Ponto-Caspian gobies in Europe. We assess patterns in the development of national policy and legislation in response to the perceived threat of non-native fish introductions to native species and ecosystems. We review, and provide a glossary of, the terms and definitions associated with non-native species. Finally, we discuss perspectives as regards the future treatment of naturalized species.
