Abstract
The present study was designed to examine dispositional self-consciousness and trait anxiety as predictors of choking in sport. Sixty-six basketball players completed the Self-Consciousness Scale and the Sport Anxiety Scale prior to completing 20 free throws in low-pressure and high-pressure conditions. A manipulation check showed that participants experienced significantly higher levels of state anxiety in the high-pressure condition. A series of hierarchical multiple regression analyses supported the hypothesis that self-conscious athletes were more susceptible to choking under pressure. The best predictors of choking were private self-consciousness and somatic trait anxiety that together accounted for 35% of the explained variance. We discuss a number of possible explanations regarding the discrepancy between the present results and previous studies mainly relating to task characteristics, skill level of participants and manipulations of pressure.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of bicalutamide ('Casodex') 150mg (in addition to standard care), on the risk of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) progression, in patients with early prostate cancer. METHODS The bicalutamide 150mg Early Prostate Cancer (EPC) programme is the largest clinical trial programme in the treatment of prostate cancer to date. This paper reports the PSA progression data from the EPC programme at a median of 3years' follow-up, for the overall study population, and across the radical prostatectomy and radiotherapy primary therapy strategies. PSA progression was predefined as the earliest occurrence of PSA doubling from baseline, objective progression, or death from any cause. RESULT Overall, bicalutamide 150 mg in addition to standard care significantly reduced the risk of PSA progression by 59% compared with standard care alone (HR 0.41; 95% CI 0.38, 0.45; p<<0.0001). Significant reductions were observed following radical prostatectomy (51%; HR 0.49; 95% CI 0.43, 0.56; p<<0.0001) and radiotherapy (58%; HR 0.42; 95% CI 0.33, 0.53; p<<0.0001). Further exploration of the data by disease stage, nodal status, Gleason score and pre-treatment PSA level revealed significant reductions in the risk of PSA progression across most prognostic risk factor subgroups. CONCLUSIONS Bicalutamide 150mg significantly reduces the risk of PSA progression, irrespective of whether patients received radical prostatectomy or radiotherapy as standard care. The EPC programme is ongoing and further progression and survival data are awaited.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peroxisome proliferator activated receptors (PPARs) are nuclear hormone receptors involved in genetic control of many cellular processes. PPAR and PPAR have been implicated in colonic malignancy. Here we provide three lines of evidence suggesting an inhibitory role for PPAR in colorectal cancer development. METHODS Levels of PPAR mRNA and protein in human colorectal cancers were compared with matched non-malignant mucosa using RNAse protection and western blotting. APC(Min)/+ mice were randomised to receive the PPAR activator methylclofenapate 25 mg/kg or vehicle for up to 16 weeks, and small and large intestinal polyps were quantified by image analysis. The effect of methylclofenapate on serum stimulated mitogenesis (thymidine incorporation), linear cell growth, and annexin V and propidium iodide staining were assessed in human colonic epithelial cells. RESULTS PPAR (mRNA and protein) expression levels were significantly depressed in colorectal cancer compared with matched non-malignant tissue. Methylclofenapate reduced polyp area in the small intestine from 18.7 mm(2) (median (interquartile range 11.1, 26.8)) to 9.90 (4.88, 13.21) mm(2) (p=0.003) and in the colon from 9.15 (6.31, 10.5) mm(2) to 3.71 (2.71, 5.99) mm(2) (p=0.009). Methylclofenapate significantly reduced thymidine incorporation and linear cell growth with no effect on annexin V or propidium iodide staining. CONCLUSIONS PPAR may inhibit colorectal tumour progression, possibly via inhibition of proliferation, and may be an important therapeutic target.

Abstract
Castration is the most widely used form of androgen ablation employed in the treatment of metastatic (M1) prostate cancer. Non-steroidal antiandrogen monotherapy is a potential alternative treatment option for men for whom castration is unacceptable or not indicated. Of the three non-steroidal antiandrogens, bicalutamide ('Casodex'), flutamide and nilutamide, only bicalutamide has been compared with castration in large, controlled, randomised, Phase III trials in M1 patients. A post-hoc analysis of these studies indicated that bicalutamide 150 mg/day monotherapy may be of benefit to M1 patients with a prostate specific antigen (PSA) level </=400 ng/ml. Significant advantages for M1 patients treated with bicalutamide were observed in subjective response rate, maintenance of sexual interest and physical capacity. Patients with a higher disease burden (PSA >400 ng/ml) may decide that quality of life and symptomatic benefits outweigh the slight survival disadvantage seen in clinical trials and opt for bicalutamide monotherapy as an alternative to castration.Prostate Cancer and Prostatic Diseases (2001) 4, 196-203.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hospitalised patients with respiratory tract infections (RTI) frequently receive intravenous (i.v.) antibiotics followed by a short course of oral treatment. OBJECTIVES To observe antibiotic use in hospitals in Germany, Spain, France, Italy and the UK and the reasons for choosing the i.v. route and switching to oral treatment. METHODS Research pharmacists sought the opinions of physicians and senior nurses in the completion of a semi-structured questionnaire on the treatment of RTI with i.v. antibiotics. Questions focussed on antimicrobials of choice, reasons for choosing i.v., reasons for changing to oral administration, and duration of treatment. RESULTS This study recruited 796 patients with RTI, usually pneumonia. Prescribing patterns varied widely between the five hospitals. Accepted clinical criteria were only commonly cited in Germany, Spain and the UK as reasons for choosing the i.v. route at the beginning of the study. These were more commonly cited at the time of switch, although other criteria such as improved condition, were other significant reasons. The mean duration of i.v. treatment ranged from 4 days in the UK to 10 days in Italy, where most patients received the full course of treatment by the i.v. route. Unlike the other hospitals studied, the few patients in Italy who were switched to another form of treatment were as likely to receive intramuscular as oral administration (13% and 11%, respectively). CONCLUSIONS The practice of and reasons for prescribing i.v. antibiotics varied in the hospitals studied. Objective clinical criteria were inconsistently cited as reasons for administering i.v. antibiotics and in general these reasons were unrelated to those given for the switch from i.v. to oral administration. In order for guidelines for switching from i.v. to oral antimicrobials to be routinely employed, explicit physiological criteria need to be recorded in a routine fashion. Closer co-operation between pharmacists and physicians may help in developing and implementing guidelines at a local level.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastrimmune is an immunogenic form of gastrin. It raises in situ antibodies against two proliferative forms of gastrin: amidated and glycine-extended gastrin-17. It has been shown to have a therapeutic action in several in vivo tumour models. Following immunization, due to the complex equilibrium that exists between the antibodies and gastrin, it is not technically feasible to assay for free gastrin. AIM To determine the effect of Gastrimmune-induced antigastrin antibodies on acid secretion. METHOD A rat gastric fistula model was used. Animals (six per group) were immunized with a control immunogen or ascending doses of Gastrimmune. Acid output was measured following infusion of increasing doses of gastrin-17 and pentagastrin. RESULTS Gastrimmune-induced antibodies significantly reduced gastrin-17-stimulated acid output compared to control animals (Gastrimmune at 200 microg/rat vs. control; acid output following 30 ng gastrin-17, 0.01 vs. 0.16, P < 0.001; following 120 ng gastrin-17, 0.022 vs. 0.29, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Gastrimmune significantly inhibits gastrin-17-stimulated acid output. This biological assay suggests that the antigastrin antibodies effectively bind gastrin-17. In addition to its use as an antineoplastic agent, Gastrimmune may have a role as an acid-decreasing agent in oesophagogastric pathology.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the efficacy and tolerability of bicalutamide (Casodex) as immediate therapy, either alone or as adjuvant to treatment of curative intent, in patients with localized or locally advanced (T1b-T4, any nodal status, M0) prostate cancer. METHODS This was a multicenter, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in Europe, South Africa, Australia, and Mexico and is part of the Casodex Early Prostate Cancer program. RESULTS A total of 3603 men were randomized to receive bicalutamide (n = 1798) or placebo (n = 1805). The patient demographics were well balanced between the two groups. Prior therapy of curative intent had been given to 64% of the patients (prostatectomy [44%], radiotherapy [18%], and prostatectomy and radiotherapy [2%]) and 36% had been monitored with watchful waiting. After a median follow-up of 2.6 years and a median exposure to the study drug of 2.2 years, a significant 43% reduction in the risk of objective progression was observed for the bicalutamide group compared with the placebo group (hazard ratio 0.57, 95% confidence interval 0.48 to 0.69, P << 0.0001). The time to prostate-specific antigen doubling was significantly delayed for the bicalutamide group compared with the placebo group (hazard ratio 0.37, 95% confidence interval 0.32 to 0.43, P << 0.001). The survival data were immature, with 7.2% overall mortality. The most frequently reported adverse events with bicalutamide were gynecomastia alone (17.4%), breast pain alone (17.6%), and gynecomastia with breast pain (47.5%). CONCLUSIONS Bicalutamide 150 mg daily as immediate therapy, alone or as adjuvant to treatment of curative intent, significantly reduced the risk of disease progression in patients with localized or locally advanced prostate cancer. Longer follow-up is underway to assess any benefit in overall survival.

Abstract
The primary aim of western-trained speech and language therapists (SLTs) working in the 'South' is not to train further SLTs but to transfer a range of practical skills to carers, health and education workers working directly with under-served populations. Considering current areas of service need in the UK, a model of primary health care has been applied to the western model, resulting in further discussion of potential applications to future SLT practice in the UK.

Abstract
We investigated the distribution of pulmonary arteriopathy in chronic pulmonary hypertension (PH) in a quantitative histopathologic study, using computer-assisted image analysis. We also examined the histologic manifestations and cellular phenotypes of various obstructive intimal lesions in PH with an immunohistochemical method. A total of 53 lungs removed at autopsy or explantation were obtained for the study from 51 documented cases of moderate to severe PH (15 cases of primary pulmonary hypertension [PPH], eight cases of Eisenmenger's syndrome [EISEN], 22 cases of chronic major-vessel thromboembolic disease [CTED], and three cases of PH associated with other known causes), and two unused donor lungs served as normal controls. Intimal thickening in PPH was most prominent in small pulmonary arteries and arterioles less than 200 micrometer in diameter. Plexiform lesions in PPH were associated with significantly smaller arteries than in EISEN. Arteries larger than 400 micrometer showed a significant intimal thickening only in CTED. Obstructive intimal lesions in PH comprised a morphologic spectrum with frequent intermediate forms between plexiform and thrombotic lesions. Most cells within various intimal lesions showed an immunoprofile of myofibroblasts that were positive for vimentin and alpha-smooth muscle actin, but negative for desmin and endothelial markers including Factor VIII, clonal designator (CD)31, and CD34. Endothelial markers were positive only in the single layer of cells lining slitlike lumens, when the latter were present. In conclusion, major types of PH had characteristic distribution patterns of obstructive intimal lesions, showing mainly a myofibroblastic phenotype and variable endothelial/vascular differentiation.

Abstract
I review research on psychological characteristics and sports performance and examine the literature on talent identification with particular reference to soccer to derive implications for the use of psychological variables in the talent identification and development process. Although the many cross-sectional studies of psychological characteristics and performance in all football codes conducted over the last 30 years have revealed no clear patterns, studies of both general inventories and specific variables are still being conducted. Reports on talent identification in all codes have increased in recent years, but most are descriptive in nature. In this review, I suggest that research on systematic expert observation has potential as a practical approach, but more studies of this type are needed. Considering the examination of specific psychological variables, only a solitary investigation of creativity in adolescents has shown promise. Further research on creativity and talent identification is required to replicate the positive results found in that study. In summarizing the research on psychological characteristics and talent identification, I conclude that cross-sectional research on adults cannot be extrapolated for use in talent identification with adolescents. I propose that resources would be more effectively used in the provision of psychological skills training for adolescent soccer players, pending more sophisticated research on a wider range of psychological variables. It is recommended that longitudinal or quasi-longitudinal research is essential to determine whether the same psychological variables are important for outstanding performance throughout the process of development and whether psychological variables measured during adolescence can predict outstanding performance in adulthood.

Abstract
This article is the first ultrastructural study on the annual oviducal cycle in a snake. The ultrastructure of the oviduct was studied in 21 females of the viviparous natricine snake Seminatrix pygaea. Specimens were collected and sacrificed in March, May, June, July, and October from one locale in South Carolina during 1998-1999. The sample included individuals: 1) in an inactive reproductive condition, 2) mated but prior to ovulation, and 3) from early and late periods of gravidity. The oviduct possesses four distinct regions from cranial to caudal: the anterior infundibulum, the posterior infundibulum containing sperm storage tubules (SSTs), the uterus, and the vagina. The epithelium is simple throughout the oviduct and invaginations of the lining form tubular glands in all regions except the anterior infundibulum and the posterior vagina. The tubular glands are not alveolar, as reported in some other snakes, and simply represent a continuation of the oviducal lining with no additional specializations. The anterior infundibulum and vagina show the least amount of variation in relation to season or reproductive condition. In these regions, the epithelium is irregular, varying from squamous to columnar, and cells with elongate cilia alternate with secretory cells. The secretory product of the infundibulum consists largely of lipids, whereas a glycoprotein predominates in the vagina; however, both products are found in these regions and elsewhere in the oviduct. In the SST area and the anterior vagina, tubular glands are compound as well as simple. The epithelium of the SST is most active after mating, and glycoprotein vacuoles and lipid droplets are equally abundant. When present, sperm form tangled masses in the oviducal lumen and glands of the SST area. The glands of the uterus are always simple. During sperm migration, a carrier matrix composed of sloughed epithelial cells, a glycoprotein colloid, lipids, and membranous structures surround sperm in the posterior uterus. During gravidity, tubular glands, cilia, and secretory products diminish with increasing development of the fetus, and numerous capillaries abut the basal lamina of the attenuated epithelial lining of the uterus.
