Abstract
In a prospective study, antiepileptic drugs were discontinued in 264 children with epilepsy after a mean seizure-free interval of 2.9 years. They were then followed for a mean of 58 months to ascertain whether seizures recurred. Seizures recurred in 95 (36%) of the children. Etiology was a significant predictor of outcome (relative risk [RR] = 1.81). On multivariable analysis, significant factors in the idiopathic group included age at onset above 12 years (RR = 5.4), a family history of seizures (RR = 3.1), the presence of slowing on the electroencephalogram prior to medication withdrawal (RR = 2.4), and a history of atypical febrile seizures (RR = 2.8). Specific epileptic syndromes such as juvenile myoclonic epilepsy and benign rolandic epilepsy were also significant predictors of outcome. In the remote symptomatic group, significant predictors of outcome included age at onset older than 12 years (RR = 3.6), moderate to severe mental retardation (IQ < 50) (RR = 2.8), a history of atypical febrile seizures (RR = 2.0), and a history of absence seizures (RR = 0.4). The majority of children with epilepsy in remission while on antiepileptic drug therapy will remain seizure free when medications are withdrawn. A few readily available parameters distinguish those with a good prognosis from those in whom seizures are likely to recur. These data provide the framework for the clinical decision making for withdrawal of medications in these children.

Abstract
Seedlings of three families of jack pine (Pinus banksiana Lamb.) were subjected to 16 combinations of photoperiod, growth environment (outdoors, greenhouse and biotron) and gibberellin (GA(4/7)) treatment. After 14 months, which included two dormancy induction periods, ovulate flowering was observed. There was a strong positive correlation between flowering and seedling height; female flower production was stimulated by both a declining photoperiod during bud development and GA(4/7) treatment; and there was an interaction between GA(4/7) treatment and family, such that the difference in flowering intensity between a late-flowering and an early-flowering family was eliminated by GA(4/7) treatment. The results suggest that the genetic control over the time of onset of flowering, and GA(4/7)-induction of flowering depend on a common mechanism.

Abstract
A promising method for diabetes treatment is the implantation of immunoisolated cells secreting insulin in response to glucose. Cell availability limits the application of this approach at a medically-relevant scale. We explore the use of transformed cells that can be grown to large homogeneous populations in developing artificial pancreatic tissues. We also investigate the use of NMR in evaluating, non-invasively, cellular bioenergetics in the tissue environment. The system employed in this study consisted of mouse insulinoma beta TC3 cells entrapped in calcium alginate/poly-L-lysine (PPL)/alginate beads. The PPL layer imposed a molecular weight cutoff of approximately 60 kDa, allowing nutrients and insulin to diffuse through but excluding high molecular weight antibodies and cytotoxic cells of the host. We fabricated a radiofrequency coil that can be double-tuned to 1H and 31P, and an NMR-compatible perfusion bioreactor and support circuit that can maintain cells viable during prolonged studies. The bioreactor operated differentially, was macroscopically homogeneous and allowed the acquisitions of 1H images and 31P NMR spectra in reasonable time intervals. Results indicated that entrapment had little effect on cell viability; that insulin secretion from beads was responsive to glucose; and that the bioenergetics of perfused, entrapped cells were not grossly different from those of cells never subjected to the immobilization procedure. These findings offer promise for developing an artificial pancreatic tissue for diabetes treatment based on continuous cell lines.

Abstract
The objective of this paper is to to resolve important issues in artificial neural nets-exact recall and capacity in multilayer associative memories. These problems have imposed restrictions on coding strategies. We propose the following triple-layered hybrid neural network: the first synapse is a one-shot associative memory using the modified Kohonen's adaptive learning algorithm with arbitrary input patterns; the second one is Kosko's bidirectional associative memory consisting of orthogonal input/output basis vectors such as Walsh series satisfying the strict continuity condition; and finally, the third one is a simple one-shot associative memory with arbitrary output images. A mathematical framework based on the relationship between energy local minima (capacity of the neural net) and noise-free recall is established. The robust capacity conditions of this multilayer associative neural network that lead to forming the local minima of the energy function at the exact training pairs are derived. The chosen strategy not only maximizes the total number of stored images but also completely relaxes any code-dependent conditions of the learning pairs.

Abstract
Our objective was to determine whether changes in PME and PCr/Pi can be used to predict lack of tumor response to chemotherapy in a murine model of human osteosarcoma. A chemotherapy-sensitive human osteosarcoma cell line was implanted into the flank of 22 nude mice. Cisplatin was administered to 11 of the mice 9 days postimplantation. 31P MR spectroscopy was performed pre- and post-chemotherapy in both sets of mice. Statistically significant changes in PCr/Pi occur from post-chemotherapy in the treated mice, but not in the untreated mice during the same time. Change in PME parallels changes in tumor volume. Changes in PCr/Pi predict lack of chemotherapy treatment in human osteosarcoma implanted into nude mice with a specificity of 80% and a sensitivity of 63%. The change in PCr/Pi occurs prior to any changes in volume of the tumor [corrected].

Abstract
Antibodies to ACTH1-24 detected by radioimmunoassay were present in the serum of a child with opsoclonus-myoclonus for at least 24 weeks after discontinuation of chronic ACTH treatment. The antibody-bound ACTH did not interfere with cortisol secretion. Six other children with opsoclonus-myoclonus and 16 control sera, including patients with chronically elevated endogenous ACTH, did not exhibit autoantibodies to ACTH. Antibodies to ACTH should be sought in patients who develop tolerance to ACTH treatment. The indirect but not direct ACTH assay method is sensitive to the presence of ACTH antibodies.

Abstract
We estimated the concentration of soluble IL-2R (sIL-2R) in the serum of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and examined the relationship between the serum levels of sIL-2R and clinical features or laboratory data. We found that elevated levels of sIL-2R were present in the serum of SLE patients with discoid rash, and sIL-2R concentrations were correlated with the soluble CD4 and soluble CD8 concentrations but not with classical serological marker, anti-DNA antibody or complement titer.

Abstract
Formation and accumulation of O6-alkylguanine and O4-alkylthymine in human tissues is possibly the most relevant marker for cancer risk. Because humans are chronically exposed to diverse kinds of chemicals and eventual DNA structural modifications are supposed to be a complex mixture of adducts at very low levels, it is essential to use an assay with extremely high sensitivity and specificity. We have established a quantitation method, called PREPI, for O6-methylguanine, O4-methylthymine, and O4-ethylthymine by the combination of prefractionation by HPLC, 32P-postlabeling, and immunoprecipitation. The detection limit was about 1 fmole for all three adducts, enabling us to analyze about 1 x 10(-8) levels as a molar ratio to normal counterpart using 100 micrograms of DNA. In a pilot experiment, we analyzed 11 peripheral blood samples from healthy volunteers. O6-Methylguanine was detected in all the cases with a mean value of 2.0 +/- 1.3 x 10(-8) (range, 0.78-4.6 x 10(-8)). Neither O4-methylthymine nor O4-ethylthymine was above the detection limit of 0.8 x 10(-8) as a ratio to thymine.

Abstract
Flow linear dichroism is used to measure specific inclinations for each of the four bases in poly[d(AC)].poly[d(GT)] and poly[d(AG)].poly[d(CT)] in both the B and A forms. For the B form in solution the bases are found to have a sizable inclination. Inclination is increased in the A form, as expected. In all cases the pyrimidines are more inclined than the purines.

Abstract
CD spectra have been measured as a function of temperature for a number of ApA analogues with modified backbones. Oligonucleotides with these modified backbones are being used as antisense agents having potential as viral therapeutics. Results of these studies show that when a carbonyl is substituted for the phosphate to produce an uncharged backbone, the analogues that have either sugar or morpholino substitution do not stack. In contrast, when a morpholino group is substituted for the sugar and the phosphate is modified so as to be uncharged, there is strong base stacking. Stacking interactions in the phosphorus-linked morpholino analogues are at least as strong as those found in d(ApA). The stacking interactions in ApA are weak by comparison. Singular value decomposition demonstrates that the stacking is two state, and Taylor series decomposition yields a coefficient that measures base stacking interactions. The van't Hoff equation is applied to the base stacking coefficient from the Taylor series fitting to give thermodynamic parameters.

Abstract
As part of a prospective study of febrile seizures, three independent pediatric neurologists rated each of 100 febrile seizures for the presence of complex features: focality, long duration (greater than or equal to 10 min), and occurrence of multiple seizures. Seizure descriptions were assembled from all information available in the medical record and from a semistructured interview of a person who had witnessed the seizure. Interrater agreement assessed by kappa indicated excellent agreement with regard to whether the seizures were multiple or prolonged (kappa greater than or equal to 0.85) and fair to good agreement with regard to focality (kappa = 0.61-0.78). Disagreement occurred most often regarding assessment of focality. Reasons for disagreement included variation in interpretation of lateral eye deviation, staring episodes, and motor asymmetries in the context of a bilateral convulsion.

Abstract
The susceptibilities of Nagase analbuminemic rats (NAR) and control Sprague-Dawley rats (SDR) to N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) were compared. In Experiment I, the rats were given daily subcutaneous injections of 10 mg/kg of ENU for a week from 4 weeks of age. In Experiment II, mother rats were given a single subcutaneous injection of 60 mg/kg of ENU on day 17 of pregnancy and tumor development in their offspring was examined. In Experiment I, the incidence of neurogenic tumors was slightly, but not significantly, higher in NAR than in control rats. In Experiment II, the incidence of total tumors including neurogenic tumors was significantly higher in NAR (40/43, 93.0%) than in SDR (13/61, 21.3%). NAR showed particularly high susceptibility to induction of neurogenic tumors (34/43, 79.1%) and renal tumors (15/43, 34.9%). In an attempt to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of the increased susceptibility of NAR to ENU, O6-ethylguanine, a major premutagenic ethylated DNA adduct, was quantitated in fetal brain DNA of NAR and SDR after a pulse exposure to 60 mg/kg ENU. No significant difference in the initial formation or subsequent repair of O6-ethylguanine was observed in the two strains, indicating that abnormality at some later stage(s) of chemical carcinogenesis may lead to the increased susceptibility of NAR to induction of neurogenic tumors.

Abstract
To facilitate recombination-based screening, we constructed the ColE1-based plasmid, pi G4, that confers chloramphenicol resistance, contains a polylinker with multiple unique restriction enzyme recognition sequences, and contains the genetic marker, supF. To facilitate recombination-based screening followed by rapid DNA sequencing, we inserted the selectable marker, supF, into each of 20 high-copy-number (hcn) pUC-derived NoC plasmids that were designed for multiplex DNA sequencing. To facilitate recombination-based screening of common cDNA libraries that often contain ColE1 sequences, we constructed a supF-carrying plasmid whose replication was driven from an R6K replicon that does not share sequence homology with ColE1. Furthermore, we incorporated a useful polylinker and increased the copy number of this plasmid to create the 4.4-kb hcn plasmid, pMAD1. Thus, these plasmids allow: (1) background-free transformation of cells by a supF plasmid carrying an antibiotic-resistance marker; (2) simultaneous performance of the recombination-based assay and DNA sequencing; and (3) screening bacteriophage cDNA libraries that contain ColE1 sequences by recombination with a supF plasmid that is not homologous to ColE1 derivatives.

Abstract
We examined the TNF-alpha activity in culture supernatants of monocytes isolated from the peripheral blood of patients with SLE and of normal individuals. The monocytes from patients with SLE stimulated with silica particles, lipopolysaccharide or Staphylococcus aureus Cowan 1 secreted significantly lower amounts of TNF-alpha than did normal monocytes. A decreased TNF mRNA expression was observed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells stimulated by mitogens from patients with SLE. Furthermore, we examined the effect of recombinant TNF-alpha (rTNF-alpha) on the B cell function in SLE patients. rTNF-alpha inhibited the spontaneous B cell proliferation of SLE, but tended to enhance the normal B cell proliferation. Spontaneous IgM production from SLE B cells was inhibited by rTNF-alpha, but that from normal B cells was not. Spontaneous IgG production was unaffected by rTNF-alpha. Also, rTNF-alpha did not affect the viability of B cells. These findings suggest that an impaired TNF-alpha production and an abnormal B cell response to TNF-alpha play a role in the immunological dysfunction in patients with SLE.

Abstract
In a previous paper (Tomura, K. et al. Tohoku J. Exp. Med., 1989, 159, 171-183), we discovered IL-2 enhancing factor(s) designated B cell derived-growth enhancing factor-2 (BGEF-2), which enhanced IL-2 dependent cell proliferation, and reported that BGEF-2 was produced by B cells of the patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) only when they were in the active stage of the disease. In this paper, we studied relationship between each IL-2 enhancing activity from B cell supernatant of the patients with these diseases and clinical parameters. IL-2 enhancing activities did not correlate with erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP), but correlated with plasma concentrations of gamma-globulin from the patients with RA and SLE in the active stages. IL-2 enhancing activities correlated with hypocomplementemia and leukocytopenia in the patients with SLE, and also correlated with RAHA titer in the patients with RA. Moreover, on several patients with RA or SLE in the active stages, diminution of IL-2 enhancing activity was found when they were in the remission stage after treatments. These findings suggested that IL-2 enhancing activity (i.e., BGEF-2 activity) correlated with activity of these diseases and supported the hypothesis that BGEF-2 played an important role in the polyclonal B cell activation and autoantibody production in patients with these diseases.

Abstract
Juvenile-mature correlation has played an important role in indirect selection for size traits in forest trees. The juvenile size of a tree is a part of the mature size, and the juvenile-mature correlation is an example of a "part-whole" type of correlation. As is the case with any other "part-whole" type of correlation, the juvenile-mature correlation can be subdivided into two components; one is a function of variance only, and the other a function of variance and covariance. In this paper the components of the juvenile-mature correlation is described, the basic properties and the dynamics of its components analyzed, and the role of these components in explaining the gain from indirect juvenile selection discussed. Six forest tree populations were used to review the various properties of the model. The most important applied conclusions were: (1) even if two populations have the same juvenile-mature correlations, different selection strategies can be used depending on the nature of correlation components. (2) Choosing the proper mature age is as important as choosing juvenile age. (3) Understanding the growth curves of mean and variance is essential to developing selection strategies.

Abstract
Primary Sjögren's syndrome (1. SS) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by lymphocytic infiltration of the salivary glands and autoantibody production. In order to identify genetic factors that play a role in pathogenesis and predict extent of disease, we used Southern blot and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods to detect polymorphisms of the HLA-DRB1 (DR), HLA-DRB3 (DRw52), and HLA-DQA1 genes among 75 Caucasoid 1. SS patients and 150 Caucasoid controls living in the same geographic region of Southern California. We found significantly increased frequency of HLA-DR3 (P less than .001), HLA-DW52a (P less than .001), and HLA-DQA4 (P less than .05), in comparison to normal controls. Also, an increased frequency of heterozygosity for HLA-DQA1/DQA4 (P less than .05) was present among 1. SS patients. Autoantibodies to SS-A and to SS-B were significantly associated with DR3 (P less than .001), HLA-DQA4, (P less than .05), and DQA4/DQA1 heterozygotes (P less than .01). Among the 1. SS patients, clinical and laboratory features such as hypergammaglobulinemia, symmetric peripheral neuropathy, and hypothyroidism were significantly associated with HLA-DR3 (P less than .01) but not with HLA-DR2 (P greater than .10). In comparison, 1. SS patients with leukocytoclastic vasculitis were more frequently HLA-DR2 (P less than .05). These results using PCR methods confirm and extend prior studies that have used serologic methods.

Abstract
In a prospective study, 283 children who presented with a first unprovoked seizure were followed for a mean of 30 months from the time of first seizure. Subsequent seizures were experienced by 101 children (36%). The cumulative risk of seizure recurrence for the entire study group was 26% at 12 months, 36% at 24 months, 40% at 36 months, and 42% at 48 months. The cumulative risk of recurrence in the 47 children with a remote symptomatic first seizure was 37%, 53%, and 60% at 12, 24, and 36 months, respectively, compared with a cumulative risk of 24%, 33%, and 36% at 12, 24, and 36 months, respectively, in the 236 children who had had an idiopathic first seizure (P less than .01). In children with an idiopathic first seizure, the electroencephalogram was the most important predictor of recurrence. The cumulative risk of recurrence in the 81 children with abnormal electroencephalograms was 41%, 54%, and 56% at 12, 24 and 36 months, respectively, but only 15%, 23%, and 26% at 12, 24, and 36 months, respectively, in the 138 children with normal electroencephalograms (P less than .001). A history of epilepsy in a first-degree relative was a significant risk factor only in idiopathic cases with abnormal electroencephalograms. In children with a remote symptomatic first seizure, either a history of prior febrile seizures or the occurrence of a partial seizure were significant predictors of recurrence. Age at first seizure and duration of seizure did not affect recurrence risk in either the idiopathic or remote symptomatic group. A total of 84% of the children were not treated with antiepileptic drugs or were treated for less than 2 weeks. Only 9% were treated for longer than 3 months. Treatment did not affect the risk of recurrence. The results suggest that, even without treatment, the majority of children with a first unprovoked seizure will not experiment a recurrence. Children with an idiopathic first seizure and a normal electroencephalogram have a particularly favorable prognosis.

Abstract
The T84 human colonic epithelial cell line retains the ability to produce secretagogue-responsive monolayer cultures with high transepithelial resistance when grown and maintained on collagen-coated permeable supports in media supplemented with 5% newborn calf serum. The addition of highly purified insulin to the basolateral but not the apical membrane side of established monolayers caused the transepithelial resistance to decline more than eightfold over a 3-4-d period. By comparing the transepithelial flux of 22Na with that of the extracellular space marker, [3H]mannitol, the decline in electrical resistance was shown to be due solely to an effect on tight junction-mediated paracellular permeability. The effect of insulin was dose dependent with a half-maximal effect at 3.9 ng/ml (approximately 0.7 nM) and fully reversible over a 10-d time course. Simultaneous addition of 2 microM cycloheximide prevented the insulin-induced decline in resistance; in fact, this combination caused a significant increase in electrical resistance. There was no effect on the short-circuit current response of insulin-treated monolayers to secretagogues so long as media was changed daily. While no gross morphological changes were apparent, there did appear to be a subtle condensation of the perijunctional actin ring as visualized using rhodamine-labeled phalloidin. These results demonstrate that insulin modulates the permeability of the occluding junction in T84 cell monolayers through a receptor mediated process which probably involves changes in protein synthesis and cytoskeletal structure. Insulin was also shown to produce similar effects on two other intestinal epithelial cell lines.

Abstract
We report a case of methimazole-induced acute hepatic failure, which occurred 17 weeks after initiation of the drug in a 43-year-old man with hyperthyroidism and hepatitis B surface antigenemia. Postmortem needle autopsy of the liver revealed an established micronodular cirrhosis secondary to hepatitis B with moderate septal/portal inflammation, marked cholestasis and scattered acidophilic bodies. The serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) was positive, but reactivation of hepatitis B was unlikely in view of the absence of a serum hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) and hepatitis B virus deoxyribonucleic acid (HBV-DNA) and negative stain for HBsAg and hepatitis B core antigen (HBcAg) in the liver tissue.

Abstract
Culture supernatants of B cells from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in the active stage enhanced interleukin 2 (IL-2) dependent proliferation of CTLL A/J cells. This activity, designated B cell-derived growth-enhancing factor-2 (BGEF-2), was recovered by gel filtration of a molecular weight between 15,000 and 20,000. BGEF-2 itself did not show IL-2 activity nor IL-1 activity, and BGEF-2 activity was not detected in the following cytokines: Interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha), interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin 4 (IL-4), interleukin 5 (IL-5) and interleukin 6 (IL-6). Furthermore, BGEF-2 was distinguishable from B cell-derived growth-enhancing factor described in a previous paper [Kang et al. (1987) J. Immunol., 139, 1154-1160]. BGEF-2 was produced by B cells from patients with RA or SLE only when the patients were in the active stage. BGEF-2 enhanced IL-2-dependent growth of peripheral blood T cells from patients with active RA, but did not enhance the growth of T cells from healthy volunteers. These results suggest that BGEF-2 is a B cell-derived lymphokine which plays an important role in the pathogenesis of RA and SLE.

Abstract
Lymphocytes, co-expressing CD4/Leu7 and CD8/Leu7 markers respectively, taken from two patients having large granular lymphocytosis taking an indolent clinical course have been comparatively studied for function as NK cells and T cells. Both large granular lymphocytes (LGLs) were acid phosphatase positive and showed a beta-glucuronidase reaction in their cytoplasmic granules. Studies on case 1 indicated that the CD4/Leu7 lymphocytosis with LGL morphology takes a benign clinical course with mild neutropenia as well as those of CD8/Leu7 LG lymphocytosis. Both CD4/Leu7 and CD8/Leu7 LGLs behave similarly in their lack of NK activity, and manifest decreased IL-2 production in vitro and show a low IL-2 receptor expression unrelated to their T cell phenotype, but behave differently in influencing the immunoglobulin production in vitro and the ADCC activity, depending on their T cell phenotype and on the expression of Fc receptor, respectively. Furthermore, the altered Fc receptors which were undetectable by the Leul 1 antibody but were still effective for ADCC activity might be present in case 2 LGLs.

Abstract
A case-control study was conducted in men who were of draftable age during the Vietnam conflict to examine the association of soft tissue sarcomas (STSs) with military service in Vietnam as well as other host and environmental risk factors. A total of 217 STS cases selected from the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology were compared to 599 controls for Vietnam service, occupational and nonoccupational exposure to various chemicals, occupational history, medical history, and life-style (smoking, alcohol, coffee, etc.). Military service information was verified by a review of the patient's military personnel records. Other information was ascertained from a telephone interview with either subjects or their next of kin. Cases and controls were stratified on the basis of the hospital type (civilian, Veterans Administration, and military); the Mantel-Haenszel estimate of the odds ratio (OR), adjusted for the effects of the stratification variable, was calculated. Vietnam veterans in general did not have an increased risk of STS when compared to those men who had never been in Vietnam (OR, 0.85; 95% confidence interval, 0.54-1.36). Subgroups of Vietnam veterans who had higher estimated opportunities for Agent Orange exposure seemed to be at greater risk of STSs when their counterparts in Vietnam were taken as a reference group. However, this risk was not statistically significant.

Abstract
A human B cell line, TKS-1, which was established from the peripheral blood of a patient with rheumatoid arthritis, was found to spontaneously produce a factor which enhances the activity of interleukin 1 (IL-1). This factor, designated B cell-derived growth-enhancing factor (BGEF), enhanced IL-1-induced proliferation of peanut agglutinin nonagglutinated thymocytes. BGEF also enhanced IL-1-induced production of interleukin 2 (IL-2) by both thymocytes and a human T cell clone, HSB.2 C5B2. BGEF alone did not induce the production of IL-2. BGEF failed to induce proliferation of the IL-2-dependent T cell clone, and did not enhance its response to IL-2. The activity of BGEF was not blocked by antisera against human IL-1-alpha or human IL-1-beta. Gel filtration analysis revealed that BGEF has a m.w. of 60,000 to 65,000 in its native state. We concluded that BGEF differed from IL-1 and IL-2, but is a novel factor produced by TKS-1 cells. In addition, we found that partially purified B cells from patients with rheumatoid arthritis produced factors which enhanced the activity of IL-1.

Abstract
We measured the production of interleukin 1 (IL-1) and prostaglandin by adherent cells from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Compared to normal subjects, IL-1 production in the patients was lower but prostaglandin E1 production was higher. Furthermore, examination of monocyte subsets in patients with SLE using monoclonal anti-monocyte/granulocyte antibodies disclosed abnormal expression of membrane antigens on monocytes. It is speculated that aberration of monocyte function is related to impaired monokine production and that membrane antigens play a role in immunodysregulation in patients with SLE.

Abstract
Adverse gastrointestinal symptoms from milk may reduce the bioavailability of phenytoin. In a prospective crossover study, we studied the effect of simultaneous ingestion of phenytoin and milk in 12 patients with partial epilepsy and no adverse gastrointestinal symptoms. Serum phenytoin levels were measured at the start of the study and after 2 weeks. Patients then switched regimens, and a third phenytoin level was determined 2 weeks later. Serum phenytoin levels were similar for patients taking phenytoin with either milk or water.

Abstract
Beijing Silicon Rubber IUD was designed by Xuan Wu Hospital and Beijing Silicon Rubber Manufacturing Research Institute in 1980. Animal experiments of the silicon rubber were done, and toxic effect studied before clinical use. 1136 cases were reported at the end of 12 months by 6 hospitals in Beijing. The followup rate was 93.75%. Life table of 12 months showed the cumulative continuation rate of the IUD was 82.45%, pregnancy rate 4.5%, expulsion rate 8.49%, removal for medical cause 3.9%, and removal for personal reasons 0.64%. Among the side effects, menstrual irregularity was 5.03%, blood discharge 6.35%, dysmenorrhea 11.95%, backache 31.1%, and leucorrhea 18.12%. Menstrual blood loss was measured in 30 cases before and after 1, 2, 3 months of insertion. The mean blood loss before insertion was 51.96 ml (51.71 +or- 15.95), while 1 month after insertion it was 62.9 ml (70.59 +or- 26.81), 2 months after insertion 71 ml, and 3 months after insertion 75 ml. The morphological endometrial change as compared with that by induced stainless steel ring is not much heavier especially in regard to glandular and stromal changes. The endometrial cytologic count of white cells of the IUD group (34 cases) in comparison with that of the control group (36 cases) was about twice as much in number. As Moyer reported, the endometrial cell count of IUD cases was about 6-10 times that of control cases. The authors consider that the cellular reaction of this IUD is not much greater than that of other types of IUDs.

Abstract
The influence of unbalanced mating systems - factorial mating (FM) and random loss of families after a full diallel crossing (RS) - on the ultimate probability of gene fixation (u(Π)) and the time required to fix or lose a gene (t(Π)) are investigated. The average u(Π) of these systems is smaller than that of random mating, and the range of u(Π) for a given initial parental genotype combination is very large (close to one for most initial genotypic combinations). The average u(Π) of different parental genotypic combinations of a given gene frequency are different. These systems accelerate the t(Π).
