Abstract
Cytosol of primary breast cancers from 217 women of predominantly Arab ethnicity were assayed for uPA, tPA, PAI-1 and a subset for ER, PR and pS2. Serum levels of CEA and CA153 were determined during follow-up. Only tPA correlated to nodal status and tumour grade, and PAI-1 to clinical stage. PAI-1 was related to uPA and both were inversely correlated with PR and pS2 (PAI-1 also to ER). Conversely tPA was directly correlated with ER, PR and pS2. Women with high tumour uPA and PAI-1, but not tPA, had shorter overall, and relapse-free, survival. Only nodal status and clinical stage were independent predictors in multivariate analysis. However, uPA and PAI-1 were more prognostically informative than ER or PR and their usefulness may extend to delineation of patients likely to respond to adjuvant therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The application of pyeloureteric anastomoses in the management of pelviureteric junction obstruction is described. METHODS Two patients, one requiring a ureterocystoplasty for bladder augmentation but with a coexistent contralateral pelviureteric junction (PUJ) obstruction and the other with gross hydronephrosis but an atretic ipsilateral ureter, underwent trans-pyeloureteric anastomosis to relieve the obstruction. RESULTS Both patients demonstrated satisfactory drainage of the upper tracts on postoperative imaging. CONCLUSIONS Transureteropyeloplasty represents a novel and valid technique of urinary tract reconstruction in complex cases of PUJ obstruction.

Abstract
A Fifteen years girl belonging to a low socioeconomic status was admitted with peritonsillar abscess caused by methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), high fever, diarrhoea and septicaemic shock. Initial blood cultures and widal test, stool cultures and routine stool examination were non-contributory to the diagnosis. A bone marrow culture in the second week confirmed the diagnosis of Salmonella typhi infection. Examination of a fresh stool sample showed cysts of Entamoeba histolytica. She was treated with ciprofloxacin, metronidazole, augmentin and ceftriaxone. She had no clinical evidence of immunosuppression prior to this episode and her HIV test was negative. This case report highlights the presence of community acquired MRSA infection causing perititonsillar abscess, and the diagnostic dilemma of fever and diarrhoea due to coinfection with Salmonella typhi and Entamobea histolytica.

Abstract
We conducted an analysis on 41 cases of male breast cancer (median age 54 y; range 25-82 y) in Kuwait. Most (51%) were stage II cancers with 65% arising in the left breast. There were 5 (12%) T1 tumours, 23 (56%) T2 tumours and 13 (32%) T3/T4 tumours. They were mostly (95%) infiltrating ductal carcinomas; 97% were grade 2 or 3. Axillary lymph node involvement was found in 69%. Estimated 5-year survival rates were 67% and 58% for overall and relapse free survival respectively. Favourable prognosis was associated with age below 50y, clinical stage I and II, small tumour size (T1, T2), low tumour grade and absence of nodal involvement or distant metastases; nodal status and grade were independent factors for relapse free survival in multivariate analysis. In 18 cases, an immunohistochemical study showed some degree of tumour antigen reaction for ER in 89% of cases, PR in 61%, pS2 in 44%, CathD in 72%, p53 in 56%, c-erbB-2 in 50%, Ki67 and PCNA in 100% and bcl-2 in 78%. There were significant associations between several of these factors but none influenced survival. Despite the high incidence of staining of ER, our data do not support the concept of an endocrine pathway that could be usefully antagonized with antioestrogens for therapeutic benefit, as in women.

Abstract
Systemic injections of 4-aminopyridine precipitate epileptiform generalized seizures characterized mainly by shivering of the body, tail movements and tonic-clonic convulsions in rats and mice. However, only few details are known as concerns which brain regions are possibly affected and stimulated by the compound. The aim of the present study was to investigate the changes in regional cerebral blood flow in mice by using the lipophilic compound technetium-99m-hexamethyl-propyleneamineoxime (99mTc-HMPAO). Whilst the uptake of 99mTc-HMPAO was increased significantly in the neocortex and thalamus following the induction of acute 4-aminopyridine seizures, no such changes were observed in the allocortex of the mice. The increases in uptake in the neocortex and thalamus were completely prevented by carbamazepine (which abolished the symptoms of the seizure, too). The primary involvement of the neocortex and thalamus points to the importance of thalamocortical circuits in the precipitation and maintenance of experimental 4-aminopyridine convulsions.

Abstract
The marginal leakage at the dentine/composite interface in Class II composite restorations subjected to thermal cycling has been effectively evaluated using the silver staining technique. The presence of a bonding agent at the dentine/composite interface is found to improve adhesion. Scanning electron and optical microscopic observations of sectioned specimens reveal that applying a second coat of bonding agent on the dentinal surface helps in reducing microleakage compared to a single coat application, in all three radiopaque composite/bonding agent systems studied (Z100/Single Bond, Spectrum TPH/Prime & Bond 2.1 and Chitra/Chitrabond 1.0). Thermal cycling during in vitro studies was found to provide a more appropriate representation of the adhesive behaviour of the composite in clinical situations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The 14C urea breath test noninvasively detects the presence of the urease-producing bacteria Helicobacter pylori in the stomach. Several sources of errors have been identified to cause false or indeterminate results on the test. The objective of this study was to identify whether brushing teeth affects the test results. METHODS We performed the 14C urea breath test on 168 patients, with breath samples counted at 10 and 20 min after oral administration of 2 microCi (74 kBq) 14C urea. Ninety-four patients brushed their teeth before the test while 74 did not. RESULTS Thirty-six of the 74 patients (49%) who did not brush their teeth had positive results at 10 min, which became negative at 20 min. None of the 94 patients who brushed their teeth before testing showed this pattern with agreement of results at 10 and 20 min. CONCLUSION We recommend brushing teeth before the 14C urea breath test since it significantly decreased the ambiguous results of the test in our laboratory.
