Abstract
A 41-year-old woman was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit with a severe exacerbation of asthma. She was exhausted despite maximal standard medical treatment. Instead of tracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation a subanaesthetic dose of halothane was delivered in 100% oxygen using a close-fitting face mask. Her bronchospasm resolved within minutes. The argument for using inhaled halothane to avoid tracheal intubation, mechanical ventilation and their side-effects is presented.

Abstract
Trypanosoma brucei S 427 clone 1 accumulated in G1 when incubated under growth-limiting conditions. Further incubation of the G1-restricted organisms in medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and 2 mM hydroxyurea resulted in their reversible arrest after a G1 checkpoint beyond which serum was not required for progress into and through S. Progress of the G1-restricted T. brucei through the G1 checkpoint was linear and required continuous incubation with exogenous serum growth factors. These were principally low and high density lipoproteins; both lipoproteins triggered G1 progression in a dose- and time-dependent manner whilst their removal by immunoaffinity chromatography severely reduced the capacity of FBS to stimulate G1 progression. Serum-induced progress of T. brucei through G1 was Ca(2+)-independent, but required gene transcription, protein synthesis, and continuous kinase activity that was inhibited by tyrphostin 51 and DAPH 1 which typically inhibit epidermal growth factor receptor protein tyrosine kinase activity. The tyrphostin 51-sensitive catalytic activity was not required for T. brucei protein synthesis, glycolysis, or S phase progression but was required for tyrosine phosphorylation of several polypeptides, none of which was specifically associated with serum-induced G1 progression.

Abstract
The high ability of African buffalo, as compared to domestic cattle, to control infections with Trypanosoma brucei brucei ILTat 1.4 organisms did not correlate with the timing or magnitude of parasite surface coat-specific antibody responses and may have resulted from the constitutive presence in buffalo blood of a novel trypanocidal factor. Buffalo plasma and serum contained material that killed bloodstream stage T. b. brucei, T. b. rhodesiense, T. b. gambiense, T. evansi, T. congolense, and T. vivax organisms during four h of incubation at 37 degrees C in vitro. Serum from eland was also trypanocidal whereas serum from oryx, waterbuck, yellow-back duiker, cattle, horse, sheep, goat, mouse, rat, and rabbit was not trypanocidal. The buffalo serum trypanocidal material was not lipoprotein, or IgG, and had the following properties: 1) a density of > 1.24 g/ml determined by flotation ultracentrifugation; 2) insolubility in 50% saturated ammonium sulphate; 3) non-reactivity with anti-bovine IgM, and anti-bovine IgG; 4) non-reactivity with protein G, and protein A; 5) a relative molecular mass of 152 kDa determined by chromatography on Sephacryl S 300, and of 133 kDa determined by chromatography of the 50% SAS cut of IgG-depleted buffalo serum on Superose 12; 6) no associated cholesterol; and 7) inactivation by digestion with proteinase K that was immobilized on agarose.

Abstract
Trypanosoma brucei S427cl1 organisms made 6 divisions in modified minimal essential medium (BMEM) supplemented with fetal bovine serum (FBS)-low or high density lipoprotein (LDL, HDL) and fatty acid-free bovine serum albumin (FAF-BSA). Omission of lipoproteins or FAF-BSA from the medium caused the parasites to accumulate in G1 of the cell cycle and to lose the ability to replicate at 37 degrees C. Proteinase K-treated LDL or HDL, which did not have detectable apolipoprotein, supported the G1 to S cell cycle transition of T. brucei S427cl1 organisms in BMEM supplemented with FAF-BSA. Addition of C6:0, C7:0 or fatty C8:0 fatty acid (1 mol fatty acid mol-1 FAF-BSA in the incubation mixture) to serum-free medium supplemented with LDL or HDL and FAF-BSA prevented T. brucei S427cl1 organisms from progressing through G1 into S of the cell cycle. T. brucei S427cl1 organisms became stumpy-like forms during plateau phase growth under axenic conditions. Stumpy-like T. brucei S427cl1 organisms were mainly in G1 of the cell cycle, expressed raised levels of NAD diaphorase activity, were unable to replicate at 37 degrees C, but were able to differentiate to replicating procyclic organisms. Medium collected from plateau phase cultures of T. brucei S427cl1 did not support the G1 to S cell cycle transition of exponentially growing T. brucei organisms. The capacity of plateau phase medium to support G1 to S transition of T. brucei S427cl1 organisms was restored by addition of FAF-BSA and its capacity to support 4 cycles of replication of the parasites was restored by addition of FAF-BSA and LDL or HDL.

Abstract
Some remarkable cases of full neurological recovery after cardiac arrest following immersion incidents have been intermittently reported in the journals over the years. These have largely been in children or teenagers who have fallen into extremely cold water. We report here two older adults who recovered completely after a period of cardiac arrest in cold water. Certainly, death should not be pronounced in cold water drowning, without a thermometer reading and ECG.

Abstract
One prediction of the hypothesis that the capacity for hippocampal frequency potentiation is relevant to behavioral plasticity is tested in this study, by chronically elevating magnesium in intact aged and young rats. Elevated extracellular Mg2+ specifically improves frequency potentiation in hippocampal slices, and chronic alterations in plasma Mg2+ can increase brain Mg2+ in intact animals. Aged and young rats on a diet that elevated plasma Mg2+ exhibited stronger frequency potentiation under urethane anesthesia, and showed improved maze reversal learning.

Abstract
This paper reviews research on the issue of continuities and discontinuities in development, focusing on affective and cognitive-motivational aspects. The theoretical view of Rene Spitz and supporting research is reviewed related to transformations in affective development. Methods of assessment of cognitive-motivational development ("mastery motivation") are described as utilized in a number of studies. These studies illustrate developmental transformations at approximately 10 and 18 months of age in normal infants. In addition, findings comparing abused/neglected and perinatal risk infant populations with normal infants illustrate differences in both affective and cognitive-motivational development.

Abstract
This study investigated relationships between the variety of infants' social experience and their cognitive competence and motivation to master the environment. A measure of the variety of cognitively-oriented social activities with regular caregivers was significantly related to the Bayley Mental Development Index at 13 months and to three of the four McCarthy Scales of Children's Abilities at 31/2 years. The relationships were especially strong with language development at both 1 and 31/2 years. Some relationships between the variety of cognitively-oriented caregiver activities and mastery motivation were found at 1, but not at 31/2 years of age. Infant experience was not related to 13-month motor development.

Abstract
Linear airway dimensions from incisor teeth to vocal cords were measured from radiographs. Normal children were slightly taller and heavier than children being treated for cleft palate and had significantly longer upper airway dimensions. Tracheal length was measured in 50 normal children breathing spontaneously under general anaesthesia and was found to correlate best with body weight. Strong positive correlation with height was also found. Data from normal children in these two studies were used to calculate the distance from lips to mid-trachea to determine optimal length for a tracheal tube. Previously published data on airway lengths in children are reviewed.

Abstract
Thirty-six subjects, twelve each at 6, 12, and 18 years of age, were asked which of four colors (blue, green, yellow, or red) they were reminded of by each of four temperatures (containers at 4, 23, 35, or 45 deg C). More 18-year-olds than expected by chance made each of the conventional associations: hot/red, warm/yellow, cool/green, cold/blue. The 12-year-olds reliably made the hot/red association but none of the others. No more 6-year-olds than expected by chance made any of the conventional associations. The results suggest that the conventional associations are founded on a loosely held cultural norm rather than on an evolutionary or physiological basis.
