Abstract
Neural networks with asymmetric synaptic connections (w(ij) not equal to w(ji)) display a broad range of dynamical behavior including fixed point, periodic, and "chaotic" trajectories. Previous work has shown that such networks undergo an order-chaos phase transition as various network parameters, such as the connectivity or the degree of asymmetry, are changed. Here, using an information theoretic approach, we present results which suggest that neurons are able to communicate information to each other most effectively in networks that are near the order-chaos transition. We then extend the model to incorporate some biologically relevant features.

Abstract
We examined a patient who was clinically much better at reporting tactile stimulation when he could see his stimulated hand. Experimentally, we found that he had difficulty detecting taps accompanied by a salient (but not predictive) light located directly above his concealed hand. However, his performance was dramatically improved if the light was attached to a rubber hand situated in line with the patient's hidden hand. Previous studies have suggested that tactile sensitivity can be improved by nearby visual stimulation. However, our effect shows that crossmodal sensory facilitation does not only depend upon simple spatial proximity alone. Rather, a simultaneous visual event dramatically improves perception of touch specifically when it is attributed to the perceiver's stimulated limb.

Abstract
The burn nursing Delphi study identified pain management as the most important area of burn nursing research. The question, "What is the best method to measure the pain of the patient with burns?" ranked in the top 10% of the nursing research priorities and is the research question of this study. The most commonly used pain assessment tools were determined in a 1994 survey of burn centers. Of those that responded, 67% used the Visual Analog Scale and 43% used an adjective scale. Forty patients were enrolled in this prospective, multicenter study. Visual analog and color scales were used during a 3-day cycle and word and faces scales were used during another 3-day cycle. Pain levels were assessed twice each day, once during a quiet time and then again immediately after a painful activity. At the end of each 3-day cycle the patient was asked which tool he or she preferred. At the completion of the study period the patient was asked to select the overall most preferred tool for pain assessment. Although this study indicates that patients prefer the faces and color scales to the most commonly used visual analog and adjective scales, further research is needed to determine the potential impact of preferred tools on pain intervention. The results may also lead burn centers to re-evaluate current selection of pain assessment tools.

Abstract
The functional recovery of 47 right-brain-damaged stroke patients was studied over a 2-year period. The researchers hypothesized that sustained attention capacity should predict the degree of motor and functional recovery over this period because of a proposed privileged role of sustained attention in learning-based recovery of function. As predicted, significant correlations were found between sustained attention capacity at 2 months and functional status (including the Barthel Index) at 2 years. This relationship was shown to exist independently of 2-month functional status. Furthermore, compared with a left-brain-damaged group of cerebrovascular accident (CVA) patients, the right-brain CVA group did not recover functional ability as well over the 2-year period. This increasing difference in functional status over a 2-year period was mirrored by an emerging difference in sustained attention capacity, in favor of the left-brain CVA group.

Abstract
Despite major advances in burn wound management and other supportive care regimens, infection remains the leading cause of morbidity in the thermally injured patient. Changes in nursing practices and patient isolation have played a significant role in reducing the incidence of burn wounds and other infections, particularly those that result from cross-contamination in the hospitalized burn patient. This article focuses on the sources of the most common infections seen in burn centers today and on the infection control strategies developed for their prevention and treatment.

Abstract
B7-1 (CD80) and B7-2 (CD86) are genetically and structurally related molecules expressed on antigen-presenting cells. Both bind CD28 to co-stimulate T lymphocytes, resulting in proliferation and cytokine production. The extracellular portions of B7-1 and B7-2 which bind to CD28 and CTLA-4 are related to Ig variable (V) and Ig constant (C) domain sequences. Recent reports have described splice variant forms of B7 proteins which occur in vivo and are of unknown function. Here we describe soluble recombinant forms of B7-1 and B7-2 containing either both of the Ig-like extracellular domains or the individual IgV or IgC domains coupled to an Ig Fc tail. Soluble B7-1 and B7-2 bind to CD28 and CTLA-4, and effectively co-stimulate T lymphocytes resulting in their proliferation and the secretion of cytokines. Furthermore, the IgV domain of B7-2 binds CD28 and CTLA-4, competes with B7-1 and B7-2 for binding to these receptors, and co-stimulates T lymphocytes. Cross-linked soluble B7-2v was the most potent co-stimulatory molecule tested and was active at a concentration approximately 100-fold lower than cross-linked soluble B7-1 or B7-2 proteins. When bound to tosyl-activated beads, B7-2v was capable of sustaining multiple rounds of T cell expansion. These data complement the description of naturally occurring variants to suggest that T cell co-stimulation in vivo may be regulated by soluble or truncated forms of B7 proteins.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Bone density in growth hormone (GH) deficient children is decreased more than expected for delayed skeletal maturation. Previous studies suggest GH enhances mineral retention and deposition in bone. Seven GH deficient prepubertal children were studied during 2 years of GH therapy to assess the effect on bone density and plasma osteocalcin. Bone density (radiographic photodensitometry) of the phalanges (cortical and trabecular bone) was expressed as the standard deviation score (SDS) of the mean for sex, bone age and chronological age. Relative osteopenia, less pronounced for bone density/bone age (BD/BA) than bone density/chronological age (BD/CA), improved significantly during GH therapy. After 12 months there was increase over pretreatment levels, significant for BD/CA (-1.65 +/- 0.46 vs -1.15 +/- 0.64; mean +/- SD: p = 0.002), but less pronounced for BD/BA. After 24 months increase in both measurements continued, reaching significance also for BD/BA (Pre: -1.02 +/- 0.55 vs -0.41 +/- 0.29; p = 0.011). Plasma osteocalcin levels were low before GH therapy (11.6 +/- 9.9 ng/ml; n = 7; vs control 24.4 +/- 12.5 ng/ml; n = 21; p < 0.05), rose significantly after one week (31.2 +/- 10.5 ng/ml; p < 0.001), with continued upward trend to plateau between 2-6 months, with elevated levels persisting during 2 years of GH therapy. CONCLUSION The early and sustained rise in plasma osteocalcin and subsequent increase in bone density with continued gain over 24 months of the study suggests that GH therapy in GH deficient children has a significant prolonged effect on bone formation and mineralization in addition to stimulating linear growth.

Abstract
The development of effective topical chemotherapy, the reintroduction of burn wound excision, and the use of biologic dressings have significantly decreased the incidence of invasive burn wound infection and have contributed to the improvement in the survival that has occurred over the past four decades. The currently available skin substitutes are imperfect, and research endeavors continue in the effort to develop a nonantigenic disease-free, readily available, physiologically effective tissue that will promptly effect wound closure, reduce scar formation and thereby improve cosmetic results, and reduce the need for reconstructive surgery. As monitoring and physiologic support techniques improve and additional advances in wound care occur, the morbidity and mortality of burn patients will be further reduced.

Abstract
Abstract
Conditioned medium from Ag-specific suppressor T cell hybridomas contains soluble factors (TsF) that modulate immune responses in an Ag-specific manner. We previously generated a series of TCR-alpha- and TCR-beta- expression variants from a 4-hydroxy-3-nitrophenyl acetyl (NP)-specific inducer suppressor T cell hybridoma and demonstrated that loss of TCR alpha-chain mRNA, but not TCR-beta chain mRNA, was accompanied by concomitant loss of suppressor bioactivity. Suppressor factor bioactivity was restored by expression of TCR alpha-chain cDNA, suggesting that the TCR alpha-chain plays a critical role in Ag-specific suppressor cell function. We have now transfected TCR alpha-chain from a Th cell clone specific for arsanylated peptides plus I-Ad into a TCR-alpha- derivative of an NP-specific inducer suppressor T cell hybridoma. The transfectants expressed a new hybrid TCR-alpha beta complex and produced soluble factors that suppressed azobenzenearsonate hapten (ABA) but not NP delayed-type hypersensitivity responses. These supernatants mediated suppression of the induction, but not the effector phase of the delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction. In reciprocal experiments we transfected a TCR alpha-chain from an NP-specific suppressor T cell hybridoma into a TCR-alpha- hybridoma derived from the ABA-specific Th cell hybridoma. The NP-specific TCR alpha-chain was expressed in the Th cell hybridoma, but the supernatant from this transfectant did not suppress DTH responses to either NP or ABA. However, the latter supernatants, when combined with cell lysates derived from a TCR-alpha- Ts hybridoma, specifically suppress NP DTH responses. These data are consistent with the interpretation that TCR alpha-chain imparts Ag specificity to the suppressor molecule and a second, yet undefined, component produced by the Ts hybridoma controls the immunoregulatory bioactivity.

Abstract
The regulation of T cell-mediated immune responses requires a balance between amplification and generation of effector function and subsequent selective termination by clonal deletion. Although apoptosis of previously activated T cells can be induced by signaling of the tumor necrosis factor receptor family, these molecules do not appear to regulate T-cell clonal deletion in an antigen-specific fashion. We demonstrate that cross-linking of the inducible T-cell surface molecule CTLA4 can mediate apoptosis of previously activated human T lymphocytes. This function appears to be antigen-restricted, since a concomitant signal T-cell receptor signal is required. Regulation of this pathway may provide a novel therapeutic strategy to delete antigen-specific activated T cells.

Abstract
Thyroid function and iodine levels of 30 preterm neonates were examined before and up to five days after topical exposure to 10% povidone-iodine application. Urinary iodine excretion significantly increased in the group closest to term (8.9 +/- 1.2 mg I/g creatinine x 10) vs controls (3.5 +/- 0.5 mg; p < 0.01). T3 levels significantly decreased at all sub-group gestational ages vs controls (p < 0.01-0.05). Similarly, both FT4 and TT4 levels were lower in the subgroups vs controls (p < 0.01-0.05). TSH levels however did not rise in any group. These data suggest partial failure of thyroid hormone synthesis, in a population of high-risk infants possibly already exhibiting features of the euthyroid-sick syndrome. Topical iodine-containing antiseptic solutions should be used with caution in this population since these antiseptics may modify serum thyroid hormone concentrations rapidly.

Abstract
Proteolipid protein (PLP) is the major protein of central nervous system myelin. SJL (H-2s) mice immunized with a synthetic peptide corresponding to PLP residues 139-151 develop acute EAE. In this study, 6 IAs-restricted, CD4+, TCR alpha beta-bearing T cell clones were derived from SJL/J mice after immunization with this synthetic peptide. The clones responded in in vitro proliferative assays to the whole PLP molecule and to PLP peptide 139-151, but not to irrelevant Ag. They also responded to truncated and overlapping forms of the peptide but five distinct reactivity patterns were observed using these peptides. A panel of anti-TCR V beta mAb and TCR V beta-specific cDNA probes were used to determine the TCR V beta usage of the clones. Five clones were found to use four different V beta (V beta 2, V beta 6, V beta 10, or V beta 17a), whereas the V beta on the sixth clone could not be identified. Five of the clones induced EAE of varying severity upon adoptive transfer into naive syngeneic mice or mice pretreated with irradiation and pertussis and one clone was nonencephalitogenic. The Ag-specific proliferative response of all but the nonencephalitogenic clone could be blocked by an anti-CD4 mAb. Thus, the clones showed differences in their fine specifity, TCR V beta usage, sensitivity to antibody blocking, and encephalitogenic potency. These data demonstrate that the T cell response to the encephalitogenic PLP peptide 139-151 is heterogeneous.

Abstract
Antigen-specific suppressor T-cell hybridomas release soluble suppressor factors (TsF) in the supernatant that modulate both in vivo delayed-type hypersensitivity and in vitro plaque-forming cell responses in an antigen-specific manner. To study the relationship between the T-cell receptor (TcR) and TsF, we developed a series of TcR alpha- or TcR beta- expression variants from suppressor T-cell hybridomas that expressed the CD3-TcR alpha/beta complex. We demonstrate that loss of TcR alpha but not TcR beta mRNA was accompanied by the concomitant loss of suppressor bioactivity. Homologous transfection of TcR alpha cDNA into a TcR alpha- beta+ clone reconstituted both CD3-TcR expression and suppressor function. Furthermore, suppressor activity from TcR beta- variants was specifically absorbed by antigen and anti-TcR alpha antibodies, but not by anti-CD3 or anti-TcR beta affinity columns. These data directly establish a role for the TcR alpha chain in suppressor T-cell function and suggest that the TcR alpha chain is part of the antigen-specific TsF molecule.

Abstract
Proteolipid protein (PLP) is the major protein of central nervous system (CNS) myelin. SJL(H-2s) mice immunized with a synthetic peptide corresponding to PLP residues 139-151 (HSLGKWLGHPDKF) develop acute experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE). In the present study a T cell line and 4 clones were derived from SJL/J mice following immunization with this synthetic peptide. Severe clinical and histological EAE could be induced by adoptive transfer of the peptide-specific T cell line and 3 of 4 T cell clones. The T cell line/clones all responded strongly to PLP peptide 139-151 in in vitro proliferative assays. However, two different reactivity patterns emerged when truncated PLP peptides 141-150 and 141-149 were tested, suggesting that more than 1 epitope may be present within the PLP 139-151 determinant. To evaluate the encephalitogenic potential of the truncated peptides, we compared the ability of 2 truncated PLP peptides to induce EAE in vivo and proliferative responses in vitro. Immunization with PLP peptide 141-150 induced acute EAE in about 70% of mice tested, but PLP peptide 141-149 induced a comparatively mild form of EAE in 4 out of 9 mice tested. Lymph node cells from mice immunized with these peptides showed in vitro proliferative responses to each of the peptides, but the response to peptide 139-151 was always strongest. These combined in vivo and in vitro data further define the epitopes involved in PLP-induced EAE in SJL mice. Furthermore, the availability of multiple PLP-specific T cell clones will enable us to study the diversity of the T cell repertoire to PLP.

Abstract
Ts1, or inducer suppressor T cells, share many phenotypic and functional characteristics with helper/inducer subset of T cells. In order to evaluate the relationship between these cell types, we made a series of new Ts1 hybridomas by the fusion of Ts1 cells with the functionally TCR alpha/beta-negative BW thymoma (BW 1100). Three Ts1 hybridomas (CKB-Ts1-38, CKB-Ts1-53, and CKB-Ts1-81) were established that express TCR and produce Ag-specific suppressor factors constitutively, thus making it possible to study the nature and specificity of Ag receptors, MHC restriction, and lymphokine production by the Ts1 hybridomas. Results presented in this report demonstrate that all the Ts1 hybridomas described here express CD3-associated TCR-alpha beta. These three Ts1 hybridomas recognize Ag (NP-KLH) specifically in a growth inhibition assay and this recognition is restricted by IE molecules. Two of the hybridomas also produce IL-2 or IL-2 and IL-4 upon Ag-specific activation. Thus, by these three criteria the Ts1 hybridomas appear indistinguishable from Th cells. These three Ts1 hybridomas, however, release suppressor factors (TsF1) in the supernatant that suppress both in vivo DTH and in vitro PFC responses in an Ag-specific manner. Like the TsF1 factors characterized previously, the suppression mediated by these factors are Igh restricted and lack H-2 restriction. These factors mediate suppression when given in the induction phase but not during the effector phase of the immune response. The TsF1 factors are absorbed by Ag (NP-BSA), and anti-TCR affinity columns and the suppressor activity can be recovered by elution. The data are consistent with the interpretation that Ts1 inducer-suppressor T cells are related to Th cells; the feature that distinguishes these cells is the ability to produce Ag-binding factors that specifically suppress immune responses.

Abstract
Abstract
A dry column method for isolating N-nitrosopyrrolidine (NPYR) from fried, cure-pumped bacon and detection by gas chromatography-thermal energy analyzer (TEA) was studied collaboratively. Testing the results obtained from 11 collaborators for homogeneous variances among samples resulted in splitting the nonzero samples into 2 groups of sample levels, each with similar variances. Outlying results were identified by AOAC-recommended procedures, and laboratories having outliers within a group were excluded. Results from the 9 collaborators remaining in the low group yielded coefficients of variation (CV) of 6.00% and 7.47% for repeatability and reproducibility, respectively, and the 8 collaborators remaining in the high group yielded CV values of 5.64% and 13.72%, respectively. An 85.2% overall average recovery of the N-nitrosoazetidine internal standard was obtained with an average laboratory CV of 10.5%. The method has been adopted official first action as an alternative to the mineral oil distillation-TEA screening procedure.

Abstract
Biotin-binding antibodies were raised in rabbits by injecting biotin-bovine serum albumin conjugate. Neither the protomer nor the polymer of rat mammary-gland acetyl-CoA carboxylase formed precipitin bands with the anti-biotin. By virtue of its ability to bind biotin (apparent binding constant for free biotin about 1mum), the anti-biotin inhibited the carboxylase activity under certain conditions. This property of the antibody was employed to detect the ligand-induced changes affecting the biotinyl group in different conformational states of mammalian carboxylase. Depending on the ligand present, the biotinyl group in the protomeric form was either accessible or inaccessible to the antibody. The biotinyl group of the protomer generated by a relatively high concentration of NaCl (0.5m) reacted with the antibody, and the antibody-carboxylase complex could not be converted into active enzyme by citrate. Further experiments showed that citrate failed to induce polymerization in this protomer-antibody complex and that anti-biotin could be displaced rapidly from this complex with excess of biotin. The resulting protomer was converted into the polymeric state on citrate addition, with parallel regain of enzyme activity. In the presence of ADP+Mg(2+), ATP+Mg(2+) or ATP+Mg(2+)+HCO(3) (-), however, the enzyme remained as a protomer, but its configuration was such that the biotinyl group was essentially inaccessible to the antibody. Likewise, the biotinyl group of the different polymeric forms of the carboxylase (s approximately 30-45S) engendered by phosphate, malonyl-CoA, acetyl-CoA or citrate remained essentially inaccessible, since their activity was minimally affected by the anti-biotin. In the presence of 0.15m-NaCl, the phosphate-induced polymer reverted to a approximately 19S form with concomitant appearance of anti-biotin-sensitivity, whereas the other polymeric forms remained unaffected under similar experimental conditions.
