Abstract
Despite recent intensive investigations, physiological and pathological role of semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) is far from clear. In this study, serum SSAO activity was determined, radiochemically, in various groups of uremic patients: haemodialysed (HD), peritoneally dialysed (PD) and those receiving conservative treatment but still not dialysed (ND), as well as in controls. Reduced enzyme activity was found in HD uremic patients before and after dialysis treatment, compared to controls (5260 +/- 862 and 6011 +/- 958 pmol/h/ml vs. 8601 +/- 283 pmol/h/ml, p < 0.01 and p < 0.05, respectively). The activity was slightly lower in PD, and normal in ND patients. In HD patients SSAO activity was also determined by an assay based on the formation of hydrogen peroxide, and was found to be elevated compared to controls (2384 +/- 323 pmol/h/ml vs. 1437 +/- 72 pmol/h/ml, p < 0.05). The elevated serum SSAO activity measured through the detection of the enzyme-generated hydrogen peroxide in HD patients might indicate its contribution to the accelerated atherosclerotic disease observed in uremia.

Abstract
Laparoscopic removal of normal and moderately enlarged spleens has become the gold standard operation in recent years because its short operative time, technical safety, and quick patient recovery time. The best method for extraction of the removed spleen, however, has not yet been determined. The authors present a new method for the extraction of the laparoscopically removed spleen. Using a transvaginal approach, the organ is removed through an incision on the posterior vaginal wall and exteriorized in a laparobag. The procedure is similar to a routine vaginal hysterectomy, but is technically much simpler to perform.

Abstract
Waterhouse-Friderichsen syndrome caused by Capnocytophaga canimorsus septicemia was fatal in a previously healthy 47-year-old woman. The patient died suddenly in less than 12 hours after presentation, in spite of supportive measures, including ventilation, antibiotic coverage, pressor therapy, and multiple transfusions of blood products. The diagnosis of infection due to an unusual organism was suspected earlier in the course of management after review of the peripheral blood smear. The importance of the findings in the blood smear and their correlation with infection due to this organism are discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diplopia identifies patients with eye muscle involvement in Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO). OBJECTIVE To identify clinical parameters that could eliminate the need for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to assess the activity of inflammation in the eye muscles of GO patients with diplopia. METHODS In 43 patients with GO with recently developed diplopia, orbital ultrasound and MRI were performed. Muscle diameters and MRI T2 relaxation times were measured, and the amount of orbital connective tissue was calculated from MRI scans and compared with ultrasound readings, diplopia grades, degree of protrusion, ocular pressure, tear production, antibody levels and hormonal parameters of thyroid function. RESULTS No correlation was found between diameters of 233 extraocular muscles measured by MRI and by ultrasound. For each of the four muscles, there was a diameter above which ultrasound was always unreliable. MRI data were used in further analysis. Of the muscles examined, the inferior rectuses were the most frequently enlarged - at least one, in 93% of cases. Medial, lateral and superior rectuses were enlarged in 59%, 37% and 34% of the orbits respectively. The pattern of muscle involvement of the two orbits tended to be symmetric (r=0.49, P=0.003), particularly for the medial rectuses (r=0.90, P=0.000). Proptosis correlated with the sum of the muscle diameters for a given eye (right eye: r=0.54, P=0.003; left eye: r=0.57, P=0.001), but it failed to correlate with the amount of orbital connective tissue. In 53% of the patients, normal T2 relaxation times were found in all eight muscles. There was only a weak correlation between muscle thickness and T2 relaxation time (r=0.49, P=0.003), indicating that muscle enlargement alone is not a sign of disease activity. The severity of diplopia was independent of T2 relaxation time. The amount of orbital connective tissue showed a negative correlation with the greatest T2 relaxation time for a given eye (r= -0.52, P=0.004); this suggests that disease types exist that have predominant muscle involvement and predominant connective tissue expansion. No correlation between connective tissue expansion and proptosis, diplopia grade, muscle thickness or disease duration was found - that is, connective tissue expansion is not a major factor in diplopia. Both muscle and connective tissue findings were independent of thyroid function. CONCLUSION Ultrasound and MRI eye muscle diameter readings do not correlate, because of the inherent inaccuracy of orbital ultrasound. Muscle enlargement alone does not mean oedematous swelling and active disease. Neither ultrasound, nor any combination of 11 clinical and laboratory parameters provided the degree of information on muscles and connective tissue that was obtainable by MRI. In unclear cases of recently developed diplopia, before orbital decompression surgery, in the case of treatment failure or if, for any other reason, imaging is needed in GO, MRI is the method of choice.

Abstract
Low levels of cholesterol are protective against development of coronary artery disease. Heterozygous hypobetalipoproteinemic individuals expressing truncated apolipoprotein (apo)B as a result of mutation in the apob gene have low levels of cholesterol and apoB in their plasma. To study the molecular mechanism of low levels of apoB in these individuals, we employed a previously reported knock out mouse model generated by targeted modification of the apob gene. The heterozygous, apoB-100/B-81, mice express full length and truncated apoB, B-81, and have 20 and 35% lower levels of total cholesterol and apoB, respectively, when compared to WT (apoB-100/B-100) mice. The majority of the truncated apoB, B-81, fractionated in the VLDL- density range. The mechanism of low levels of apoB in B-100/B-81 mice was examined. Total hepatic apoB mRNA levels decreased by 15%, primarily due to lower levels of apoB-81 mRNA. Since apoB mRNA transcription rates were similar in B-100/B-100 and B-100/B-81 mice, low levels of mutant apoB-81 mRNA occurred by enhanced degradation of apoB mRNA transcript containing premature translational stop codon. ApoB synthesis measured on isolated hepatocytes decreased in B-100/B-81 mice by 35%, while apoB-48, apoE, and apoAI syntheses remained unchanged. Metabolic studies using whole animal showed a 32% decrease in triglyceride secretion rates, consistent with the apoB secretion rates. Inhibition of receptor-mediated clearance of apoB-81-containing particles resulted in greater relative accumulation of apoB-81 in plasma than apoB-100, suggesting enhanced clearance of apoB-81-containing particles. These results demonstrate that low levels of apoB in heterozygous hypobetalipoproteinemic mice occurs by low rates of apoB secretion, and increased clearance of truncated apoB. Similar mechanisms appear to contribute to low levels of apoB in hypobetalipoproteinemic humans.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The technetium Tc 99m-labeled monoclonal antibody MAb-170 was designed for diagnostic use in patients with gynecologic adenocarcinoma. Our investigation was initiated to verify its usefulness for radioimmunoscintigraphy of ovarian tumors. STUDY DESIGN Most of the 82 patients participating in this study underwent immunoscintigraphy before first-look surgery. RESULTS Radioimmunoscintigraphy recognized 36 of 41 patients with adenocarcinoma of the ovaries, corresponding to an overall sensitivity of 88%. Specificity was 90% (38/42). The calculation of accuracy gave a result of 89% (74/83). Of 110 known lesions, 92 were visualized successfully; thus the local-regional sensitivity was 84%. Of 160 benign tumor sites, 154 showed no evidence of tracer accumulation, corresponding to a local-regional specificity of 96%. The smallest lesion visualized was an adenocarcinoma of the corpus uteri with a diameter of 1.5 cm. CONCLUSION The monoclonal antibody MAb-170 is a promising radiopharmaceutical for immunoscintigraphy of ovarian adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate antibody responses to a broad panel of peptides derived from human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) among unselected patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). METHODS In sera obtained from 69 patients with SLE and healthy blood donors, immunoassay was used to measure levels of antibody against synthetic peptides derived from HERVs, exogenous retroviruses, and nonviral poly(amino acids). RESULTS Measurement by immunoassay revealed increased frequencies of antiretroviral antibodies against 2 peptides derived from the env gene of the type C-like class, which includes ERV-9 and HERV-H, and against 2 peptides from the gag region of human T lymphotropic virus type I-related endogenous sequence 1, in patients with SLE. Antibodies to 2 nonviral peptides, polyhistidine and polyproline, were also overrepresented in patient sera. In 1 patient, longitudinal data obtained over a period of 12 years indicated that the concentrations of certain antiretroviral antibodies varied according to disease activity. CONCLUSION Reactivity to certain type C HERV-derived antigens was found among patients with SLE. This reactivity could be explained by increased exposure to cross-reactive epitopes from essentially complete type C HERVs.

Abstract
Neurons in the primary visual cortex of the cat are selectively activated by stimuli with particular orientations. This selectivity can be disrupted by the application of antagonists of the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) to a local region of the cortex. In order to determine whether inhibitory inputs are necessary for a single cortical neuron to show orientation selectivity, GABA receptors were blocked intracellularly during whole cell recording. Although the membrane potential, spontaneous activity, subfield antagonism, and directional selectivity of neurons were altered after they were perfused internally with the blocking solution, 18 out of 18 neurons remained selective for stimulus orientation. These results indicate that excitatory inputs are sufficient to generate orientation selectivity.

Abstract
A long-standing commitment to planned growth and development are essential for the AASCIN to be effective in influencing the direction of spinal cord injury (SCI) nursing. Recognizing these needs, a long-range planning initiative was supported by the Board of Directors in March, 1990. A task force was charged with the responsibility for outlining the future of the AASCIN through the development of a five-year strategic plan. The long-range planning initiative was divided into two segments. First, a Delphi Study was developed to obtain membership input into AASCIN's priorities. Once this data was collected, the Strategic Planning Task Force synthesized the results of the study and developed a five-year AASCIN strategic plan. The purpose of this article is to describe the process and content of the proposed AASCIN strategic plan. The report begins with a brief description of the Delphi Survey, which forms the foundation for the strategic plan. Since the strategic plan needs to be congruent with the organization's mission statement and goals, the organizational plan of AASCIN is presented. Lastly, a brief summary of how the organization proposes to use this strategic planning document is provided.

Abstract
Three patients are presented with traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) complicated by acute heterotopic ossification (HO), and concurrent deep vein thrombosis 15 months, 18 months and 22 years after SCI, accompanied by persistent hypercoagulation. The diagnosis of HO preceded deep vein thrombosis in all three patients. All were treated with etidronate disodium and therapeutic heparin followed by oral anticoagulation. As these patients were not acutely injured, the questions arose as to what predisposed them to deep vein thrombosis and when was the appropriate time to discontinue anticoagulation. Over a course of 3 years following deep vein thrombosis, these patients were monitored for evidence of hypercoagulation by D-dimer assay, plasma fibrinogen estimation, and rate of whole blood clotting by Sonoclot coagulation analyzer. The activity of acute HO was assessed by three-phase bone scan. A steady state of hypercoagulation, reflected by an increase in all three parameters, ran parallel to the extent of acute HO for the entire observation period. Moreover, hypercoagulation was persistently greater during increased acute HO activity even when the warfarin-induced prothrombin time ratio was 1.2-1.5. In addition, as acute heterotopic ossification activity decreased, the test values returned to near normal during warfarin therapy.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
All the sleep-promoting substances currently identified also have other biological activities. Despite years of effort, a single specific central nervous system sleep center has not been described. These observations led us to propose a biochemical model of a sleep activational system in which the effects of several sleep factors are integrated into a regulatory scheme. These sleep factors interact by altering the metabolism, production, or activity of each other and thereby result in multiple feedback loops. This web of interactions leads to sleep stability in that minor challenges to the system will not greatly alter sleep. The system, however, is responsive to strong perturbations, such as sleep deprivation and infectious disease. The sleep-promoting effects of cytokines and their interactions with prostaglandins and the neuroendocrine system are used to illustrate the functioning of a part of the sleep activational system under normal conditions and during infectious disease. Although the actions of individuals sleep factors are not specific to sleep, their interactions at various levels of the neuraxis can mediate a specific sleep response. Such a system would also be responsive to the autonomic and environmental parameters that alter sleep.

Abstract
The localization and timing of cellular calcium loading and glial cell reaction in relation to selective death of hippocampal neurons was studied in Mongolian gerbils following transient forebrain ischemia. Two days after a 5-min period of ischemia, heavy calcium staining was histochemically demonstrated in circumscribed groups of nerve cells, located in the transition zone between the CA1 and CA3 areas. This preceded complete neuronal cell death that was quantitatively assessed by measuring the intensity of Nissl staining. After a 12-min period of ischemia, extensive calcium loading was observed in conjunction with severe neuronal damage throughout the CA1 region as well in the dorsal nuclei of the thalamus. The extent of calcium staining decreased with time and was not seen at stages later than 7 days. Already at 2 days after a 5-min period of ischemia, a strong increase of glial fibrillary acidic protein immunoreactivity was seen. This indicates a marked and early hypertrophy of astrocytes that was not accompanied by an obvious proliferation. Neither the astrocytic response nor the neuronal calcium accumulation were observed in gerbils pretreated with propentofylline, HWA 285 (10 mg/kg, i.p.) 15 min before bilateral carotid artery occlusion. Also, the decrease of Nissl staining in the CA1 area after 5 and 12 min of ischemia was considerably less pronounced and did not significantly differ from sham-operated controls.
