The chironomid fauna of the river Meuse in Belgium and The Netherlands was studied in order to determine spatial water quality variations. Because the river Meuse serves as a source for drinking water production for about five million people in Belgium and The Netherlands, water quality is an essential factor to be studied. From 1984 till 1989 pupal exuviae were collected. Water quality was assessed by several indices and autecological information of the various taxa. With regard to pollution the general trend through the years was the same. The most upstream sampling site, in the Belgian Ardennes, was relatively unpolluted. As a result of untreated industrial and municipal wastewater discharges in the Liège region, water quality deteriorated dramatically at the Dutch border. At the most downstream sampling site, near the river mouth, a slight recovery was observed. Apart from organic and inorganic pollution other environmental factors such as flow velocity and the nature of the riverbed, also play a significant role in the occurrence of the organisms. It is concluded that protective measures need to be taken to restore the affected river ecosystem.The editors deeply regret to have to announce that Nicole Frantzen died in a train accident on 30 November 1992. 相似文献

The measurement of plasma S-adenosylhomocysteine is a more sensitive indicator of the risk for vascular disease than is plasma homocysteine. Because the level of S-adenosylhomocysteine is normally in the nanomolar range, it has been difficult to measure and necessitated the development of complex fluorometric and mass-spectrophotometric methods. We have now adapted an existing immunoassay used for the measurement of homocysteine to the measurement of S-adenosylhomocysteine in plasma. This assay is sensitive down to the level of less than 0.1 pmol, and there is no interference by S-adenosylmethionine. The assay is carried out in microplates, allows the measurement of 12 samples per plate and can easily be carried out in a 4-h period. The method is applicable to plasma samples having S-adenosylhomocysteine concentrations ranging from 10 to 150 nM without dilution. The mean value for 16 normal subjects by this method was 18.9±1.4 nM (S.E.M.), compared with 17.8±1.4 nM obtained by a previously described method using two high-performance liquid chromatography columns with fluorescence derivatization. Mean values for seven cirrhotic patients were 46.5±3.3 nM by this new method compared with 44.6±5.3 by the former method. The ease and speed of this method should allow the widespread measurement of this important metabolite in laboratories without access to sophisticated equipment. 相似文献

Low intensity resistance exercise (RE) with blood flow restriction (BFR) has gained attention in the literature due to the beneficial effects on functional and morphological variables, similar to those observed during traditional RE without BFR, while the effects of BFR on post-exercise hypotension remain unclear. The aim of the present study was to compare the blood pressure (BP) response of trained normotensive individuals to RE with and without BFR. In this cross-over randomized trial, eight male subjects (23.8 ± 4 years, 74 ± 3 kg, 174 ± 4 cm) completed two exercise protocols: traditional RE (3 x 10 repetitions at 70% one-repetition maximum [1-RM]) and low intensity RE (3 x 15 repetitions at 20% 1-RM) with BFR. Blood pressure measurements were performed after 15 min of seated rest (0), immediately after and 10 min, 20 min, 30 min, 40 min, 50 min and 60 min after the experimental sessions. Similar hypotensive effects for systolic BP (SBP) were observed for both protocols (P < 0.05) after exercise, with no differences between groups (P > 0.05) and no statistically significant difference for diastolic BP (P > 0.05). These results suggest that in normotensive trained individuals, both traditional RE and RE with BFR induce hypotension for SBP, which is important to prevent cardiovascular disturbances. 相似文献

Although chemotherapy with procarbazine, lomustine and vincristine (PCV) is considered to be well tolerated, side effects
frequently lead to dose reduction or even discontinuation of treatment of oligodendroglial brain tumors. The primary objective
of the analysis was to retrospectively compare progression-free survival (PFS) after PCV vs. PC chemotherapy (without vincristine
to avoid side effects). Patients were retrospectively identified from a database containing our patients between 1990 and
2003. For the selected cases, all histopathology reports were re-evaluated by a local neuropathologist. Based on the updated
histology data, patients were included in the study if they had at least one histological diagnosis of an oligodendroglial
tumor. PFS after start of PCV (n = 61) and PC (n = 84) chemotherapy identical (median 30 months). Multivariate analysis adjusting
for prognostic imbalances favouring the PC group showed a minor, statistically non-significant benefit for PCV (hazard ratio
0.81, 95% confidence interval 0.53–1.25; p = 0.346). Younger age (< 50 y) was a statistically significant predictor of longer
PFS. Significant advantages in terms of overall survival after first diagnosis of oligodendroglial tumor (OS, n = 315) were
found for patients < 50 y (p < 0.001), oligodendrogliomas versus oligoastrocytomas (p = 0.002), and WHO°II vs. °III (p < 0.001).
Three risk groups regarding OS were identified. Findings support the hypothesis that PC may be as effective as PCV chemotherapy,
while avoiding the additonal risks of vincristine. Younger age, lower tumor grade and histology of an oligodendroglioma were
identified to be favorable prognostic factors. 相似文献

Nondisjunction in trisomy 21 has traditionally been studied by cytogenetic heteromorphisms. Those studies assumed no crossing-over on the short arm of chromosome 21. Recently, increased accuracy of detection of the origin of nondisjunction has been demonstrated by DNA polymorphism analysis. We describe a comparative study of cytogenetic heteromorphisms and seven PCR-based DNA polymorphisms for detecting the origin of the additional chromosome 21 in 68 cases of Down syndrome. The polymorphisms studied were the highly informative microsatellites at loci D21S215, D21S120, D21S192, IFNAR, D21S156, HMG14, and D21S171. The meiotic stage of nondisjunction was assigned on the basis of the pericentromeric markers D21S215, D21S120, and D21S192. Only unequivocal cytogenetic results were compared with the results of the DNA analysis. The parental and meiotic division origin could be determined in 51% of the cases by using the cytogenetic markers and in 88% of the cases by using the DNA markers. Although there were no discrepancies between the two scoring systems regarding parental origin, there were eight discrepancies regarding meiotic stage of nondisjunction. Our results raise the possibility of recombination between the two marker systems, particularly on the short arm. 相似文献
