ISSN: 1432-1076Keywords: Asplenia syndrome ; Hiatus hernia ; Magnetic resonance imagingSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: MedicineNotes: Abstract During a 13-month period, 13 patients with asplenia syndrome were evaluated with MRI for cardiovascular and visceral anomalies. The MR images were reviewed for the presence of hiatus hernia which was found in three patients. One of the remaining ten patients with no MRI evidence of hiatus hernia was diagnosed as having gastro-oesophageal reflux and hiatus hernia by an oesophagogram and 24-h pH monitoring. This patient had undergone fundoplication prior to MRI. Out of the 13 patients (31%) with asplenia syndrome, 4 had hiatus hernia. It appears that among patients with the asplenia syndrome, hiatus hernia is a frequent finding. Recurrent pneumonia or bronchiolitis in patients with asplenia syndrome requires evaluation for the presence of hiatus hernia and gastro-oesophageal reflux.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1432-1076Keywords: Necrotizing bowel lesions ; Pseudomonas septicaemia ; Healthy infantsSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: MedicineNotes: Abstract Two previously healthy infants withPseudomonas septicaemia presented with necrotizing bowel lesions. Necrotizing bowel lesions should be suspected when infants presenting with a history of diarrhoea, develop abdominal distension and toxic signs.Pseudomonas aeruginosa should be regarded as one of the important aetiologies in such disorders, especially if there is associated neutropenia and ecthyma gangrenosum-like lesions. Antibiotics must be able to cover this pathogen to avert a catastrophic outcome. Conclusion The intestine should be considered a possible site of involvement inPseudomonas sepsis and special attention should be paid to examination of the abdomen.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Sixty-seven pairs of mothers with hepatitis B virus (HBV) surface antigen (HBsAg) and their infants were divided into two study groups to determine the effect of amniocentesis on intrauterine HBV infection. In the first study group (35 pairs), the infant's HBsAg status in cord blood was studied and the results were compared with those obtained in the cord blood from 65 infants born to HBsAg-positive women who did not have an amniocentesis. In the second study group (32 pairs), the HBV status of the infants was studied at the age of three months to five years and compared with the HBV status of 3,454 infants in the National HBV Prevention Program. In the first study group, one sample (2.9%) was weakly positive for HBsAg; while in the first control group, two (3.1%) were positive. In the second study group, three (10%) infants were positive for HBsAg. The failure rates of immunoprophylaxis in the second study and control groups were similar (9.4% vs 11% for HBsAg carrier mothers; 30% vs 14% for HBe antigen-positive carrier mothers). This suggested that genetic amniocentesis did not increase the risk of intrauterine HBV infection.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1573-5168Keywords: tilapia ; larvae ; toxicity ; development ; cadmium ; calcium ; Ca2+ influx ; Km ; VmaxSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: BiologyNotes: Abstract The toxic effects of Cd2+ on Ca2+ influx kinetics in developing tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus) larvae were evaluated. Addition of 20 µg l-1 of Cd2+ to the environment of 0 and 3 day-old larvae competitively inhibited the Ca2+ uptake within 4h resulting in a great increase in Km values for Ca2+ influx (19.3 and 17.4 fold, respectively) as compared with their respective controls. Consequently, the actual Ca2+ influx of larvae in solutions of 0.2 mM Ca2+ are suppressed by 32–45%. Also, 3 day-old larvae were more sensitive to internally accumulated Cd2+ than 0 day-old larvae. Although the Ca2+ influx in 0 and 3 day-old larvae may be restored to the levels of their respective controls with 24h of being transferred to a 20 µg l-1 Cd2+ solution, total body Ca2+ content was significantly reduced in 3 day-old larvae. Increased Ca2+ uptake efficiency ensures sufficient Ca2+ for normal growth. However, rapid increase in Ca2+ influx after hatching also leads to higher Cd2+ uptake. Exposure to Cd2+ will lead to a drop in body Ca2+ content resulting in retardation of larval growth. Therefore, we conclude that if Ca2+ uptake is interfered with at this critical stage of development, larvae will not be able to maintain normal levels of body Ca2+ and will show signs of Cd2+ poisoning.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1573-2878Keywords: Control theory ; maximum principle ; functional differential equations ; optimization theoremsSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: MathematicsNotes: Abstract Three optimal control problems involving measure functional differential equations are considered. The necessary conditions, in the form of the Pontryagin maximum principle, for an optimal control are obtained. This is accomplished by the application of a theorem by Debovistskii-Milyutin. A simple example is also illustrated to show the applicability of the results obtained.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Published 2000Staff ViewISSN: 1435-232XKeywords: Key words Glycogen storage disease type Ia ; Glucose-6-phosphatase ; Mutation ; Chinese ; TaiwanSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: BiologyMedicineNotes: Abstract Glycogen storage disease type Ia (GSD Ia) is caused by a deficiency of glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) activity. Eighteen GSD Ia families were studied for G6Pase gene mutations. Thirty-two mutations were found in 36 GSD Ia chromosomes: 16 were 727 G→T (44.44%); 13 were R83H (327 G→T; 36.11%); 1 was 341delG; 1 was 933insAA; and 1 was 793 G→T. The 727 G→T and R83H mutations together accounted for 80.56% (29/36) of the GSD Ia chromosomes. These two mutations were easily examined by polymerase chain reaction-based methods, and the prenatal diagnosis of a non-affected fetus was successfully made. The 727 G→T mutation is the predominant mutation in Japanese GSD Ia patients, but is rarely seen in Western counties. The 727 G→T mutation is also the most prevalent mutation in Taiwan Chinese, although the incidence is not as high as in Japan.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL:
