Abstract
A 25-year-old man with Ebstein's anomaly showed spontaneous regression of tachyarrhythmias to sick sinus syndrome and complete atrioventricular block over a 16-year period. This is the first clinical report supporting the hypothesis that abnormal cell death might contribute to the disturbance of the heart conduction system in Ebstein's anomaly.

Abstract
A 63-year-old man received high-dose cyclophosphamide for peripheral blood stem-cell (PBSC) harvest. He received 200 mg fluconazole. On day 3, atrial fibrillation developed with blood pressure declining to 78 mmHg. The rapid adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) test showed blunted adrenal responses. He was suspected as having adrenal failure, and fluconazole was discontinued. The rapid ACTH test became normal on Day 14, and PBSCs were successfully harvested. To clarify the association between adrenal failure and fluconazole, we resumed 400 mg fluconazole on Day 16 and repeated the test on Day 21, which showed blunted adrenal responses. This case demonstrates that prophylactic use of fluconazole can cause adrenal insufficiency.

Abstract
We have recently seen a patient who developed Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP) in the course of treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). This case showed uncommon pathological findings with extensive formation of granulomatous lesions. Despite advanced CLL associated with poor B-cell function, she responded well to anti-PCP treatment. In contrast to B-cell function, the T-cell functions were well preserved in vitro, and the numbers of peripheral CD4- and CD8-positive cells were normal, and T-cell functions were normal. These findings suggest that the production of granulomatous lesions to PCP may have been associated with the patients' immune status, and that it may constitute a good indicator in PCP infection in patients with underlying hematological malignancy.

Abstract
We introduce a simple expiratory gas monitor during sedation under spinal anesthesia. A small extension tube for infusion used as a gas sampling line is placed in the nasal vestibule. It is necessary to make it sure that the point of the tube should not contact with the mucous membrane of the nose. Our method needs no special equipments such as Capnoxygen or Nazorcap, but a cheap extension tube available in any operating room. Therefore this is a simple method. Expiratory gas monitor can detect apnea early, airway obstruction and stenosis and predict PaCO2 during sedation. The change of fractional concentration of oxygen in inspired gas predicts the change of tidal volume. Increase in the former reflects a decrease in the latter under the administration of oxygen. It is possible to evaluate whether sedation became steady with analysis of respiratory pattern. However, nasal discharge may interrupt monitoring expiratory gas. Our simple method to monitor expiratory gas is useful during sedation under regional anesthesia.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the effects of diazepam or clonidine on the quality of sedation with propofol during regional anesthesia. METHODS In a prospective randomised, controlled, double-blinded study, 60 patients undergoing elective gynecological surgery were studied. They were given premedication with 0.15-mg clonidine (Group-CL, n=20), 5-mg diazepam (Group-DZ, n = 20), or placebo (Group-P, n = 20) po. After spinal anesthesia was established, sedation was provided with propofol and controlled using a five-point sedation score at 3, "eyes closed but rousable to command", and 4, "eyes closed but rousable to mild physical stimulation". During sedation, blinded anesthesiologist recorded occurrence of complications. At two hours after end of sedation, patients were asked if they had intraoperative dream and memory. RESULTS The loading dose, steady-state infusion rate, and overall mean infusion rate in Group-CL were 0.80 mg x kg(-1), 2.35 mg x kg(-1) x hr(-1) and 2.89 mg x kg(-1) x hr(-1), compared with 0.97 mg x kg(-1), 3.13 mg x kg(-1) x hr(-1) and 3.59 mg x kg(-1) x hr(-1) in Group-DZ, and 1.38 mg x kg(-1), 4.10 mg x kg(-1) x hr(-1) and 4.36 mg x kg(-1) x hr(-1) in Group-P, respectively. Indices of both Group-CL (P < 0.001) and Group-DZ (P < 0.05) were smaller than those of Group-P Moreover, clonidine reduced the incidence of uncontrolled movement (P < 0.01), while diazepam reduced the incidence of intraoperative memory and increased the incidence of dream (P < 0.05). Premedication did not affect the incidence of other complications. CONCLUSION Both premedicants reduced propofol requirements and exerted beneficial effects on the incidence of some complications during sedation with propofol as an adjunct to regional anesthesia.

Abstract
A 71-year-old male was diagnosed as having pyothorax-associated lymphoma (PAL), a rare hematological malignancy associated with artificial pneumothorax for the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis. Because of the low incidence, its clinical features have not been fully clarified. The PAL lesion in this patient disappeared after local radiotherapy and corticosteroid treatment. However, 8 months after the initial diagnosis, he developed a variety of neurological disorders and low-grade fever. Neither recurrence of the primary pulmonary lesion nor nodal enlargement was observed. Immediate magnetic resonance imaging of the brain revealed a ring-enhanced mass, suggesting a brain abscess. However, through a stereotactic biopsy of the brain lesion, infiltration of PAL cells was identified. The brain lesion rapidly enlarged despite intensive radiotherapy, and he finally died of lymphoma progression. This case demonstrates that PAL may progress as a type of extranodal lymphoma, and that brain lesions may produce a ring-enhanced pattern on computed tomography.

Abstract
A 53-year-old woman was hospitalized for general fatigue and palpitations. An electrocardiogram showed ST elevation and T wave inversion in leads II, III, aVF, and V4-6. Cardiac catheterization was performed since the echocardiogram demonstrated the existence of a left ventricular apical aneurysm. Left ventriculography showed an aneurysm of the apex. An endomyocardial biopsy specimen from the left ventricular apical wall demonstrated typical noncaseating granulomas with giant cells. The patient was diagnosed as having cardiac sarcoidosis. There was no evidence suggesting involvement of other systemic organs. Cardiac sarcoidosis should be considered within a spectrum of diseases that cause left ventricular aneurysm.

Abstract
Halichondrin B is a highly potent anticancer agent originally found in marine sponges. Although scarcity of the natural product has hampered efforts to develop halichondrin B as a new anticancer drug, the existence of a complete synthetic route has allowed synthesis of structurally simpler analogues that retain the remarkable potency of the parent compound. In this study, we show that two macrocyclic ketone analogues of halichondrir B, ER-076349 and ER-086526, have sub-nM growth inhibitory activities in vitro against numerous human cancer cell lines as well as marked in vivo activities at 0.1-1 mg/kg against four human xenografts: MDA-MB-435 breast cancer, COLO 205 colon cancer, LOX melanoma, and NIH: OVCAR-3 ovarian cancer. ER-076349 and ER-086526 induce G2-M cell cycle arrest and disruption of mitotic spindles, consistent with the tubulin-based antimitotic mechanism of halichondrin B. This is supported further by direct binding of the biotinylated analogue ER-040798 to tubulin and inhibition of tubulin polymerization in vitro by ER-076349 and ER-086526. Retention of the extraordinary in vitro and in vivo activity off halichondrin B in structurally simplified, fully synthetic analogues establishes the feasibility of developing halichondrin B-based agents as highly effective, novel anticancer drugs.

Abstract
Fusarium infection is rare but important infection after bone marrow transplantation (BMT). A 27-year-old man developed systemic fusarial infection following severe skin damage probably caused by high-dose thiotepa administration. Systemic fusariosis rapidly progressed to a variety of organs despite antifungal treatment, and he finally died of this infection on day 75. Considering that this organism usually invades via damaged skin and that the penile lesion was the first manifestation of systemic fusariosis in this patient, careful examination of the skin might be helpful for early diagnosis of fusarial infection. His clinical course provided us with an important clue for diagnosis of fusarial infection.

Abstract
We have performed a measurement of the K+-->pi(+)pi(0)gamma decay and have observed 2x10(4) events. The best fit to the decay spectrum gives a branching ratio for direct photon emission of (4.7+/-0.8+/-0. 3)x10(-6) in the pi(+) kinetic energy region of 55 to 90 MeV and requires no component due to interference with inner bremsstrahlung.

Abstract
In the presence of germination signals, dormant spores of Dictyostelium discoideum rapidly germinate to start a new life cycle. Previously we have shown that half of the actin molecules in spores are maintained in a tyrosine-phosphorylated state, and a decline of the actin phosphorylation levels is a prerequisite for spore swelling. In this study, we have established d-glucose as a trigger molecule for the actin dephosphorylation. Present in a nutrient germination medium, d-glucose both may act as a trigger molecule and/or may serve as a substrate within a pathway for actin dephosphorylation depending upon spore age. However, the glucose-induced actin dephosphorylation was insufficient for spores to swell. Other factors in the nutrient medium were required for complete germination of young spores aged 1 to 5 days. In contrast, dispersion in nonnutrient buffer was necessary and sufficient for a decline of actin phosphorylation levels and even the emergence of amoebae in older spores (6 days and beyond). Moreover, the dephosphorylation pathway in the older spores was independent of energy production. We propose that the diversification of the actin dephosphorylation pathway may enable spores to increase their probability of germination upon spore aging.

Abstract
In spores of Dictyostelium discoideum three actin filaments are bundled to form a novel tubular structure and the tubules are then organized into rods. These tubular structures we will term actin tubules. Actin tubules are reconstructed from the supernatant of spore homogenates, while the usual actin filaments were bundled after incubation of supernatants from growing cells. Alpha-actinin, ABP-120 and EF-1alpha are not essential for rod formation. Cofilin is a component of the cytoplasmic rods but few cofilin molecules are included in the nuclear rods. The viability of spores lacking actin rods is very low, and the spore shape is round instead of capsular. The rods can be fragmented by pressure, indicating that the rods may be effective in absorbing physical pressure. The complex organization of actin filaments, actin tubules and rods may be required for spores to achieve complete dormancy and maintain viability.

Abstract
Twenty patients were prospectively and randomly studied to investigate effects of infusion methods of propofol on quality of sedation and ease of sedation control during gynecological laparotomy under spinal anesthesia. After establishment of spinal anesthesia, patients were randomly assigned to one of the following two groups, i.e. conventional continuous infusion group (Cont group) and target-controlled infusion group (TCI group). In the Cont group, propofol was started at a rate of 6 mg.kg-1.hr-1 until response to command disappeared. In the TCI group, the initial target concentration of propofol was set at 1.2 micrograms.ml-1 until response to command disappeared. Thereafter infusion rate or target concentration was adjusted to maintain Mackenzie's score at 3 or 4. Predicted concentration of propofol was 1.2 +/- 0.01 micrograms.ml-1 at induction of sedation and 1.2 +/- 0.11 micrograms.ml-1 during stable sedation in the TCI group. Satisfaction VAS, anxiety VAS, discomfort VAS, sedation score and times of changing infusion condition were similar in both groups. Total dose of propofol was significantly less in the TCI group. In conclusion, quality of sedation and ease of control of sedation were comparable in both groups and continuous infusion method is simple.

Abstract
We report the first measurement of a structure-dependent component in the decay K+-->&mgr;(+)nu(&mgr;)gamma. Using the kinematic region where the muon kinetic energy is greater than 137 MeV and the photon energy is greater than 90 MeV, we find that the absolute value of the sum of the vector and axial-vector form factors is |F(V)+F(A)| = 0.165+/-0.007+/-0.011. This corresponds to a branching ratio of B(SD+) = (1.33+/-0.12+/-0.18)x10(-5). We also set the limit -0. 04<F(V)-F(A)<0.24 at 90% C.L.
