    Notes:
    The diffusion Monte Carlo method for the solution of the Schrödinger equation for atomic and molecular systems is extended to incorporate the antisymmetry constraint. The sign problem is treated constraining the diffusion process of signed walkers within the fluctuating nodes of a function A, defined as sum of Gaussians centered on the psips. The function A is able to build up the full nodal surface in the 3N dimensional space. The algorithm is shown to scale as Nα3+Nβ3 where Nα and Nβ are the number of α and β electrons. Results are given for the b 3Σu+ and c 3Πu states of H2 and the 1 3S state of He.

    The ac complex conductivity σ*(f) of polyaniline (PAN) films at different doping levels and different temperatures, in the 1–100 KHz frequency range, are reported. The results are typical of a disordered medium where the real component of ac conductivity is frequency independent at low frequencies, rising for higher values of frequencies. In order to interpret both the real and the imaginary components of σ*(f), we developed a model which considers the doped PAN as a disordered insulating matrix, sprinkled with conductive islands generated by doping, as indicated by energy dispersed x-ray microanalysis. The conduction through the insulating matrix obeys the random free energy barrier model, while in the conductive islands a metallic frequency-independent conductivity is considered. From the fittings we obtained the activation energy value of the maximum energy barrier of the doping mechanism and estimated the concentration of hopping sites. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes:
    Hippocampal slices from guinea-pigs were used to examine the long-term potentiation (LTP) of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-mediated excitatory postsynaptic potential (EPSP). lntracellular recordings were performed from CA1 pyramidal neurons in the presence of 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione (CNQX, 5–10 μM) and picrotoxin (50 μM). In these experimental conditions test stimuli applied at low frequency (0.1 Hz) to the Schaffer collateral - commissural pathway evoked a prolonged EPSP (150–200 ms). To obtain this CNQX-resistant EPSP, stimulus intensities had to be raised above the level required to evoke an EPSP of comparable amplitude in physiological solution. Tetanic stimulation (two trains of 100 Hz, 1 s every 20 s) led to a potentiation of the CNQX-resistant EPSP, and this potentiated response was abolished with d-(-)-2-amino-5-phosphonovaleric acid (50μM). The potentiation of the NMDA receptor-mediated EPSP was more pronounced for strong than for weak test stimuli, and was suppressed when test EPSPs were evoked during membrane hyperpolarization. These results suggest that NMDA receptor-mediated responses can undergo LTP, and hence can contribute to the maintenance of LTP.

    Notes:
    Background: Advances in paediatric intensive care have reduced mortality but, unfortunately, one of the consequences is an increase in the number of patients with chronic diseases. It is generally agreed that home care of children requiring ventilatory support improves their outcomes and results in cost saving for the National Health Service. Methods: Since 1985, the Children's Hospital Bambino Gesù of Rome has developed a program of paediatric home care. The program is performed by a committed Home Health Care Team (HHCT) which selects the eligible patients for home care and trains the families to treat their child. During the period January 1985 to January 2001, 53 children with chronic respiratory failure were included in the home care program. Of these, seven patients were successively excluded and six died in our intensive care unit (ICU), while one still lives in our ICU since 1997. The results obtained in the remaining 46 children are reported. Results: The pathologies consisted of disorders of respiratory control related to brain damage (26%), upper airways obstructive disease (26%), spinal muscular atrophy (22%), myopathies and muscular dystrophies (6.5%), bronchopulmonary dysplasia (6.5%), tracheomalacia (6.5%), central hypoventilation syndrome (4.3%) and progressive congenital scoliosis (2.2%). Of these 46 patients, 34 children are mechanically ventilated and the median of their ICU stay was 109.5 days (range 54–214 days), while the remaining 12 children were breathing spontaneously and the median of their ICU stay was 90.5 days (range 61–134 days). We temporarily readmitted six patients to our ICU to perform scheduled otolaryngological surgery, eight patients for acute respiratory infections and two patients for deterioration of their neurological status due to high pressure hydrocephalus for placement of a ventriculoperitoneal shunt; these 16 patients were discharged back home again. Two other patients were readmitted for deterioration of their chronic disease and died in our ICU, while seven patients died at home. Conclusions: Thirty-seven children are still alive at home and four of them improved their respiratory condition so that it was possible to remove the tracheostomy tube. Our oldest patient has now achieved 15 years of mechanical ventilation at home.

    [Auszug] Observations were made during a series of experiments devoted primarily to the study of mechanical and magnetic effects associated with hypervelocity cratering10. The apparatus used in our tests is described elsewhere 10, and illustrated schematically in Fig. 1. Modified explosive shaped charges11 ...
