Abstract
Electroadhesive devices with dielectric films can electrically program changes in stiffness and adhesion, but require hundreds of volts and are subject to failure by dielectric breakdown. Recent work on ionoelastomer heterojunctions has enabled reversible electroadhesion with low voltages, but these materials exhibit limited force capacities and high detachment forces. It is a grand challenge to engineer electroadhesives with large force capacities and programmable detachment at low voltages (<10 V). In this work, tough ionoelastomer/metal mesh composites with low surface energies are synthesized and surface roughness is controlled to realize sub-ten-volt clutches that are small, strong, and easily detachable. Models based on fracture and contact mechanics explain how clutch compliance and surface texture affect force capacity and contact area, which is validated over different geometries and voltages. These ionoelastomer clutches outperform the best existing electroadhesive clutches by fivefold in force capacity per unit area (102 N cm-2 ), with a 40-fold reduction in operating voltage (± 7.5 V). Finally, the ability of the ionoelastomer clutches to resist bending moments in a finger wearable and as a reversible adhesive in an adjustable phone mount is demonstrated.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Septic shock is a potentially fatal condition. This study aims to assess whether iodine uptake and iodine density of abdominal organs on dual-layer spectral detector computed tomography (SDCT) could serve as a new imaging biomarker for patients in septic shock. METHODS Here, 95 patients who received contrast-enhanced abdominal CT examinations were included and separated into two groups: group A - septic shock; group B - no shock condition. Preselected abdominal (right and left adrenal gland, right and left kidney, infrarenal inferior vena cava (IVC), pancreas, spleen, and liver) localizations were independently evaluated by two radiologists, who measured iodine concentrations (mg/ml) and Hounsfield units (HU). RESULTS In all, 1520 measurements of iodine concentrations in mg/ml and HU were performed, with 27 patients in group A and 68 in group B. Iodine concentrations in mg/ml and HU correlated significantly in all organs measured. The corresponding correlation coefficient (r) ranged from 0.809 (pancreas) to 0.963 (right kidney). Inter-rater reliability (IRR) was very good for mg/ml (κ = 0.8; p < 0.01) and good for HU (κ = 0.773; p < 0.01) measurements. The mean iodine concentration and HU of the adrenal glands in septic and nonseptic patients was 4.88 ± 1.16 mg/ml/153 ± 36 HU and 2.67 ± 1.07 mg/ml/112 ± 41 HU, respectively. Iodine concentrations in the adrenal glands were significantly higher in group A than in group B patients (p < 0.01). The other organs remained unaffected and no significant difference was observed between patients in group A and B. Patients in group A presented significantly more often with an iodine uptake of >3.5 mg/ml of one adrenal gland (sensitivity = 0.926, specificity = 0.849, AUC = 0.951) or/and a combined concentration of >7 mg/ml of both adrenal glands (sensitivity = 0.889, specificity = 0.836, AUC = 0.928). CONCLUSION SDCT-derived iodine concentration of the adrenal glands could serve as a novel imaging biomarker for patients in acute septic shock. Our data suggest that an iodine uptake of >3.5 mg/ml of at least one adrenal gland or a combined iodine uptake of >7 mg/ml in both adrenal glands identifies patients in this condition.

Abstract
Xylo- and arabinoxylo-oligosaccharides (XOS and AXOS) are of interest for their prebiotic activity. The production of these oligomers might be accompanied with monosaccharides. The measurement of both oligosaccharides and monosaccharides usually requires two methods. The current work presents an HPAEC-PAD method based on gradient elution of aqueous solvents sodium hydroxide and sodium acetate, in contrast to conventional isocratic elution, for the simultaneous separation of 16 standards of monosaccharides, xylo-oligosaccharides, arabinoxylo-oligosaccharides and uronic acids using CarboPac PA 200 column. The presented method showed a stable baseline and high-resolution separation of the standards. The method showed acceptable accuracy and precision. Limits of Detection and Quantitation (LOD and LOQ) were estimated for all the standards. The method was applied to measure the activity of a commercial endoxylanase on wheat bran; a steady release of xylose monosaccharide was observed. Enzyme action on oligosaccharide standards showed a preference for the larger oligosaccharides.

Abstract
Aging and many disease conditions, most notably diabetes, are associated with the accumulation of non-enzymatic cross-links in the bone matrix. The non-enzymatic cross-links, also known as advanced glycation end products (AGEs), occur at the collagen tissue level, where they are associated with reduced plasticity and increased fracture risk. In this study, Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) imaging was used to detect spectroscopic changes associated with the formation of non-enzymatic cross-links in human bone collagen. Here, the non-enzymatic cross-link profile was investigated in one cohort with an in vitro ribose treatment as well as another cohort with an in vivo bisphosphonate treatment. With FTIR imaging, the two-dimensional (2D) spatial distribution of collagen quality associated with non-enzymatic cross-links was measured through the area ratio of the 1678/1692cm-1 subbands within the amide I peak, termed the non-enzymatic crosslink-ratio (NE-xLR). The NE-xLR increased by 35% in the ribation treatment group in comparison to controls (p<0.005), with interstitial bone tissue being more susceptible to the formation of non-enzymatic cross-links. Ultra high-performance liquid chromatography, fluorescence microscopy, and fluorometric assay confirm a correlation between the non-enzymatic cross-link content and the NE-xLR ratio in the control and ribated groups. High resolution FTIR imaging of the 2D bone microstructure revealed enhanced accumulation of non-enzymatic cross-links in bone regions with higher tissue age (i.e., interstitial bone). This non-enzymatic cross-link ratio (NE-xLR) enables researchers to study not only the overall content of AGEs in the bone but also its spatial distribution, which varies with skeletal aging and diabetes mellitus and provides an additional measure of bone's propensity to fracture.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus increases skeletal fragility; however, the contributing mechanisms and optimal treatment strategies remain unclear. We studied the effects of diabetes and insulin therapy on non-enzymatic glycation (NEG), cortical porosity (Ct.Po) and biomechanics of the bone tissue in Zucker Diabetic Fatty (ZDF) rats. Eleven-week old ZDF diabetic and non-diabetic rats were given insulin to achieve glycaemic control or vehicle seven days per week over twelve weeks (insulin dose adapted individually 0.5 international units (IU) at week 1 to 13.0IU at week 12). The right femora were excised, micro-CT scanned, and tested in 3-point bending to measure biomechanics. NEG of the midshaft was determined from bulk fluorescence. Diabetes led to increased NEG (+50.1%, p=0.001) and Ct.Po (+22.9%, p=0.004), as well as to reduced mechanical competence (max. stress: -14.2%, p=0.041, toughness: -29.7%, p=0.016) in the bone tissue. NEG and Ct.Po both correlated positively to serum glucose (NEG: R(2)=0.41, p<0.001, Ct.Po: R(2)=0.34, p=0.003) and HbA1c (NEG: R(2)=0.42, p<0.001, Ct.Po: R(2)=0.28, p=0.008) levels, while NEG correlated negatively with bone biomechanics (elastic modulus: R(2)=0.21, p=0.023, yield stress: R(2)=0.17, p=0.047). Twelve weeks of insulin therapy had no significant effect on NEG or Ct.Po, and was unable to improve the mechanical competence of the bone tissue. A reduction of mechanical competence was observed in the bone tissue of the diabetic rats, which was explained in part by increased collagen NEG. Twelve weeks of insulin therapy did not alter NEG, Ct.Po or bone biomechanics. However, significant correlations between NEG and serum glucose and HbA1c were observed, both of which were reduced with insulin therapy. This suggests that a longer duration of insulin therapy may be required to reduce the NEG of the bone collagen and restore the mechanical competence of diabetic bone.

Abstract
Zucker Diabetic Fatty (ZDF) rats represent an established model of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and display several features of human diabetic bone disease, including impaired osteoblast function, decreased bone strength, and delayed bone healing. Here, we determined whether glycemic control by insulin treatment prevents skeletal complications associated with diabetes. Subcritical femur defects were created in diabetic (fa/fa) and non-diabetic (+/+) ZDF rats. Diabetic rats were treated once daily with long-lasting insulin glargin for 12weeks for glycemic control. Insulin treatment successfully maintained serum levels of glycated hemoglobin, while untreated diabetic rats showed a 2-fold increase. Trabecular and cortical bone mass measured by μCT were decreased in diabetic rats. Insulin treatment increased bone mass of the cortical, but not of the trabecular bone compartment. Dynamic histomorphometry revealed a lower bone formation rate at the trabecular and periosteal cortical bone in diabetic animals and decreased serum procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (P1NP, -49%) levels. Insulin treatment partially improved these parameters. In T2DM, serum levels of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP, +32%) and C-terminal telopeptide (CTX, +49%) were increased. Insulin treatment further elevated TRAP levels, but did not affect CTX levels. While diabetes impaired bone defect healing, glycemic control with insulin fully reversed these negative effects. In conclusion, insulin treatment reversed the adverse effects of T2DM on bone defect regeneration in rats mainly by improving osteoblast function and bone formation.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus increases skeletal fragility; however, the contributing mechanisms and the efficacy of bone-forming agents are unclear. We studied diabetes and parathyroid hormone (PTH) treatment effects on cortical porosity (Ct.Po), non-enzymatic glycation (NEG) and bone mechanics in Zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rats. Eleven-week old ZDF diabetic (DB) and non-diabetic (ND) rats were given 75μg/kg PTH (1-84) or vehicle 5days per week over 12weeks. The right femora and L4 vertebrae were excised, micro-CT scanned, and tested in 3-point bending and uniaxial compression, respectively. NEG of the samples was determined using fluorescence. Diabetes increased Ct.Po (vertebra (vert): +40.6%, femur (fem): +15.5% vs. ND group, p<0.05) but had no effect on NEG. PTH therapy reduced vertebral NEG in the ND animals only (-73% vs untreated group, p<0.05), and increased femoral NEG in the DB vs. ND groups (+63%, p<0.05). PTH therapy had no effect on Ct.Po. Diabetes negatively affected bone tissue mechanics where reductions in vertebral maximum strain (-22%) and toughness (-42%) were observed in the DB vs. ND group (p<0.05). PTH improved maximum strain in the vertebra of the ND animals (+21%, p<0.05) but did not have an effect in the DB group. PTH increased femoral maximum strain (+21%) and toughness (+28%) in ND and decreased femoral maximum stress (-13%) and toughness (-27%) in the DB animals (treated vs. untreated, p<0.05). Ct.Po correlated negatively with maximum stress (fem: R=-0.35, p<0.05, vert: R=-0.57, p<0.01), maximum strain (fem: R=-0.35, p<0.05, vert: R=-0.43, p<0.05) and toughness (fem: R=-0.34, p<0.05, vert: R=-0.55, p<0.01), and NEG correlated negatively with toughness at the femur (R=-0.34, p<0.05) and maximum strain at the vertebra (R=-0.49, p<0.05). Diabetes increased cortical porosity and reduced bone mechanics, which were not improved with PTH treatment. PTH therapy alone may worsen diabetic bone mechanics through formation of new bone with high AGEs cross-linking. Optimal treatment regimens must address both improvements of bone mass and glycemic control in order to successfully reduce diabetic bone fragility.

Abstract
The turnover of bone is a tightly regulated process between bone formation and resorption to ensure skeletal homeostasis. This process differs between bone types, with trabecular bone often associated with higher turnover than cortical bone. Analyses of bone by micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) reveal changes in structure and mineral content, but are limited in the study of metabolic activity at a single time point, while analyses of serum markers can reveal changes in bone metabolism, but cannot delineate the origin of any aberrant findings. To obtain a site-specific assessment of bone metabolic status, bisphosphonate binding kinetics were utilized. Using a fluorescently-labeled bisphosphonate, we show that early binding kinetics monitored in vivo using fluorescent molecular tomography (FMT) can monitor changes in bone metabolism in response to bone loss, stimulated by ovariectomy (OVX), or bone gain, resulting from treatment with the anabolic bone agent parathyroid hormone (PTH), and is capable of distinguishing different, metabolically distinct skeletal sites. Using time-lapse micro-CT, longitudinal bone turnover was quantified. The spine showed a significantly greater percent resorbing volume and surface in response to OVX, while mice treated with PTH showed significantly greater resorbing volume per bone surface in the spine and significantly greater forming surfaces in the knee. Correlation studies between binding kinetics and micro-CT suggest that forming surfaces, as assessed by time-lapse micro-CT, are preferentially reflected in the rate constant values while forming and resorbing bone volumes primarily affect plateau values. Additionally, we developed a blood pool correction method which now allows for quantitative multi-compartment analyses to be conducted using FMT. These results further expand our understanding of bisphosphonate binding and the use of bisphosphonate binding kinetics as a tool to monitor site-specific changes in bone metabolism in vivo.

Abstract
In the current study, we used an estrogen-deficient mouse model of osteoporosis to test the efficacy of a cell-generated bone tissue construct for bone augmentation of an impaired healing fracture. A reduction in new bone formation at the defect site was observed in ovariectomized fractures compared to the control group using repeated measures in vivo micro-computed tomography (μCT) imaging over 4 weeks. A significant increase in the bone mineral density (BMD), trabecular bone volume ratio, and trabecular number, thickness and connectivity were associated with fracture repair in the control group, whereas the fractured bones of the ovariectomized mice exhibited a loss in all of these parameters (p<0.001). In a separate group, ovariectomized fractures were treated with murine embryonic stem (ES) cell-derived osteoblasts loaded in a three-dimensional collagen I gel and recovery of the bone at the defect site was observed. A significant increase in the trabecular bone volume ratio (p<0.001) and trabecular number (p<0.01) was observed by 4 weeks in the fractures treated with cell-loaded collagen matrix compared to those treated with collagen I alone. The stem cell-derived osteoblasts were identified at the fracture site at 4 weeks post-implantation through in situ hybridization histochemistry. Although this cell tracking method was effective, the formation of an ectopic cellular nodule adjacent to the knee joints of two mice suggested that alternative in vivo cell tracking methods should be employed in order to definitively assess migration of the implanted cells. To our knowledge, this study is the first of its kind to examine the efficacy of stem cell therapy for fracture repair in an osteoporosis-related fracture model in vivo. The findings presented provide novel insight into the use of stem cell therapies for bone injuries.

Abstract
AIM To assess changes in insulin sensitivity in non-diabetic adults with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder treated with olanzapine or risperidone. METHODS One hundred and thirty patients were randomly assigned to 12 weeks double-blind treatment with olanzapine or risperidone. Insulin sensitivity was measured using a two-step euglycaemic, hyperinsulinaemic clamp procedure. Whole-body adiposity was measured using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. The primary endpoint was the within-group change from baseline in insulin sensitivity normalized to fat-free mass (M(ffm) /I) during the clamp procedure's low-insulin phase, using an analysis of covariance model including the covariate weight change. RESULTS Forty-one olanzapine-treated and 33 risperidone-treated patients completed baseline and endpoint clamp measurements. Mean M(ffm) /I during the low-insulin phase declined 9.0% (p = 0.226) in olanzapine-treated patients and 13.2% (p = 0.047) in risperidone-treated patients (between-group difference p = 0.354). During the high-insulin phase, M(ffm) /I declined 10.4% (p = 0.036) in olanzapine-treated patients and 2.1% (p = 0.698) in risperidone-treated patients (between-group difference p = 0.664). Changes in M(ffm) /I correlated inversely with changes in body weight and adiposity, which were generally higher in olanzapine-treated patients. Significant within-group increases in fasting glucose, but not haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), were observed during olanzapine treatment. The fasting glucose change was not correlated with M(ffm) /I changes. CONCLUSIONS Small, but statistically significant, decrements in insulin sensitivity were observed in olanzapine- and risperidone-treated patients at 1 of 2 insulin doses tested. Significant increases in fasting glucose and insulin and total fat mass were observed only in olanzapine-treated patients. Changes in insulin sensitivity correlated significantly with changes in weight or adiposity, but not with changes in glucose.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Using in vivo micro-computed tomography, we assessed bone loss in the rat during the first twelve weeks after ovariectomy when structural changes were most rapid. Significant changes to the trabecular architecture were observed, including irreversible changes reflected by reduction in connectivity after only two weeks. This highlights that topological changes to the structure occur early in this experimental model of osteoporosis. INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to establish a longitudinal time course of bone loss in the ovariectomized (OVX) rat model during the initial twelve-week period where structural changes are most rapid, and to identify when irreversible changes occur using in vivo micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). METHODS The proximal tibiae of OVX (N = 10) and sham (N = 10) operated mature female Wistar rats were micro-CT scanned every two weeks from week 0 to week 12, excluding week 10. Changes in architecture were quantified using direct three-dimensional techniques and serum osteocalcin and CTX-I was measured at weeks 0, 6 and 12. Biomechanical properties were determined from femoral three-point bending and L-4 vertebral compression at the end of the protocol. ANOVA and paired t-tests were used to analyze the longitudinal and endpoint data, respectively. RESULTS All of the measured architectural parameters changed significantly over the study in the OVX group, including irreversible changes reflected by connectivity density after two weeks. Osteocalcin concentration was elevated in the OVX group. Moderate changes in the mechanical properties of the femora midshaft and vertebrae were observed. CONCLUSIONS Changes to the bone architecture and mechanics within twelve weeks after OVX highlight the importance of early diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the relative efficacy and safety of lesopitron 4-80 mg/d versus lorazepam 2-4 mg/d and placebo in a subgroup of patients with anxiety history taken from a larger study of patients with a primary diagnosis of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). DESIGN Six-week, randomized, double-blind, parallel, placebo and lorazepam-controlled, Phase II, single-center, outpatient study. SETTING Outpatient clinic. PATIENTS One hundred sixty-one patients with GAD were randomized in the main study; 68 with a documented history of GAD or anxiety disorder not otherwise specified were included in the subgroup. METHODS After a one-week placebo lead-in, patients were randomized to receive placebo, lesopitron, or lorazepam twice daily for six weeks, followed by a one-week taper period. Efficacy was assessed using the Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (HAM-A) and the Clinical Global Impressions scale. Safety was assessed through physical examinations, monitoring of vital signs, 12-lead electrocardiograms, laboratory analyses, and adverse event monitoring. RESULTS An overall mean improvement in the HAM-A total score between baseline and end point for all three treatment groups was seen, with mean changes of 3.4 (95% CI 2.0 to 4.8), 6.1 (95% CI 4.1 to 8.1), and 6.1 (95% CI 4.6 to 7.6) for the placebo, lesopitron, and lorazepam groups, respectively (omnibus p = 0.044, uncorrected). Positive treatment effects were also observed in the subgroup population on several other measures and suggest that additional therapeutic trials may be warranted. Future trials could be stratified on the basis of referral status (symptomatic volunteer vs. clinical patient with preexisting illness) or previous exposure to anxiolytics, and use a fixed-dose rather than flexible-fixed-dose design. CONCLUSIONS The subgroup analysis represents a comparison of treatment outcome in GAD patients presenting with a history of previous episodes of GAD or anxiety disorder not otherwise specified compared with those who were experiencing their first episode of GAD and reported no anxiety history. Although the overall study analysis was equivocal, for the approximately 40% of patients with recurrent anxiety disorder, beneficial effects for both lesopitron and lorazepam are suggested.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Organ transplantation is the treatment of choice for patients with end-stage organ failure, but the supply of organs has not increased to meet demand. This study was undertaken to determine the potential for kidney donation from patients with irremediable brain injuries who do not meet the criteria for brain death and who experience cardiopulmonary arrest after withdrawal of ventilatory support (controlled non-heart-beating organ donors). METHODS The charts of 209 patients who died during 1995 in the Emergency Department and the intensive care unit at the Foothills Hospital in Calgary were reviewed. The records of patients who met the criteria for controlled non-heart-beating organ donation were studied in detail. The main outcome measure was the time from discontinuation of ventilation until cardiopulmonary arrest. RESULTS Seventeen potential controlled non-heart-beating organ donors were identified. Their mean age was 62 (standard deviation 19) years. Twelve of the patients (71%) had had a cerebrovascular accident, and more than half (10 [59%]) did not meet the criteria for brain death because one or more brain stem reflexes were present. At the time of withdrawal of ventilatory support, the mean serum creatinine level was 71 (29) mumol/L, mean urine output was 214 (178) mL/h, and 9 (53%) patients were receiving inotropic agents. The mean time from withdrawal of ventilatory support to cardiac arrest was 2.3 (5.0) hours; 13 of the 17 patients died within 1 hour, and all but one died within 6 hours. For the year for which charts were reviewed, 33 potential conventional donors (people whose hearts were beating) were identified, of whom 21 (64%) became donors. On the assumption that 40% of the potential controlled non-heart-beating donors would not in fact have been donors (25% because of family refusal and 15% because of nonviability of the organs), there might have been 10 additional donors, which would have increased the supply of cadaveric kidneys for transplantation by 48%. INTERPRETATION A significant number of viable kidneys could be retrieved and transplanted if eligibility for kidney donation was extended to include controlled non-heart-beating organ donors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The filling of unit dose orders and checking for filling errors are two essential distributive responsibilities of a hospital pharmacy. Previous studies have shown that nonpharmacists, usually technicians, are capable of assuming these distributive tasks traditionally performed by hospital pharmacists. The study tested whether nonpharmacists, in this case licensed practical nurses/medication nurses, were as competent as pharmacists in checking for errors in unit dose cassettes prepared for hospital patients. METHODS A university teaching hospital was used for the study. Artificial errors (n = 812) were introduced into the drug distribution system during a 4-month period in 1995. Included in the study were seven staff pharmacists and nine medication nurses (licensed practical nurses) involved in the decentralized drug distribution system. The primary measure was the ratio of errors detected to the number of artificial errors introduced into the system. This primary measure is different from those used in prior studies that do not separate dispensing errors and checking errors. RESULTS Overall, pharmacists were significantly more accurate in detecting errors (87.7% vs. 82.1%). In one category of serious errors, that of wrong strength, the difference between pharmacists and licensed practical nurses was even greater (93.3% vs. 83.3%). CONCLUSIONS This study's results do not support conclusions of prior studies that nonpharmacists can match the error detection accuracy of pharmacists. It demonstrates the importance of considering the types of errors under examination and of using appropriate measures of error checkers when drawing conclusions on relative competence.

Abstract
This investigation was designed to study the neurotoxicity produced in hens by the aliphatic hexacarbons n-hexane, methyl n-butyl ketone (MnBK), 2,5-hexanediol (2,5-HDOH), and 2,5-hexanedione (2,5-HD) following daily dermal application of each chemical alone and in combination with O-ethyl O-4-nitrophenyl phenylphosphonothioate (EPN). Dermal application was carried out on the unprotected back of the neck. To assess whether the joint neurotoxic action of various chemicals is caused by the enhancement of absorption through the skin or by interaction at the molecular level, two additional experiments were performed. In the first experiment, EPN was dissolved in each of the aliphatic hydrocarbons prior to their topical application. In the second experiment, EPN was dissolved in acetone and applied at a different location from that of the aliphatic hexacarbons. Dermal application was carried out for 90 d followed by a 30-d observation period. The results show that hens treated with EPN developed severe ataxia followed by improvement during the observation period; n-hexane produced leg weakness with subsequent recovery, whereas the same dose of MnBK, 2,5-HDOH, or 2,5-HD produced clinical signs of neurotoxicity characterized by gross ataxia; concurrent dermal application of EPN with n-hexane or 2,5-HDOH at the same site or at different sites produced an additive neurotoxic action; simultaneous dermal application of EPN and MnBK at different sites resulted in an additive effect, whereas it caused potentiation when applied at the same site; and concurrent topical application of EPN and 2,5-HD produced a potentiating neurotoxic effect. While no histopathologic lesion was produced at the end of the observation period when any test chemical was applied alone, binary treatments of EPN and aliphatic hexacarbons resulted in histopathologic changes in some hens, with morphology and distribution characteristic of EPN neurotoxicity. The joint potentiating or additive action of aliphatic hexacarbons on EPN neurotoxicity was: 2,5-HD greater than MnBK greater than 2,5-HDOH greater than n-hexane. The mechanism of this joint action seems to be related both to enhancing skin absorption of EPN and/or its metabolic activation by n-hexane and its related chemicals.

Abstract
Millet, milo, soybean, crotalaria, and Norman pigeon pea were used in conjunction with clean fallow and a nematicide (fensulfothion) for managing nematode populations in the production of tomato transplants (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.). Glean fallow was the most effective treatment in suppressing nematode numbers. After 2 years in tomato, root-knot nematodes increased in numbers to damaging levels, and fallow was no longer effective for complete control even in conjunction with fensulfothion. After 4 years in tomato, none of the crops used as summer cover crops alone or in conjunction with fensulfothion reduced numbers of root-knot nematodes in harvested tomato transplants sufficiently to meet Georgia certification regulations. Milo supported large numbers of Macroposthonia ornata and Pratylenchus spp. and crotalaria supported large numbers of Pratylenchus spp. Millet, milo, soybean, crotalaria, and pigeon pea are poor choices for summer cover crops in sites used to produce tomato transplants, because they support large populations of root-knot and other potentially destructive nematodes.

Abstract
The exfoliative cytology of 14 diffuse mesothelioma (11 pleural and three peritoneal) is described. Malignant cells were identified in 10 patients; in eight malignant cells still retaining the characteristics of mesothelial cells were found. It is suggested that only if malignant cells of this type are recognized should the probable diagnosis of diffuse mesothelioma be made.
