Abstract
IntroductionCariprazine is a potent D3/D2 partial agonist with preferential binding to D3 receptors.Objectives/aimsTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of cariprazine versus placebo in acute exacerbation of schizophrenia.MethodsA multinational, multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo- and active-controlled, fixed-dose trial in patients aged 18–60 years with DSM-IV-TR-defined schizophrenia, current psychotic episode < 2 weeks, and PANSS total score between 80 and 120. After 1-week washout, patients received 6-weeks treatment (cariprazine 1.5, 3.0, or 4.5 mg/d, risperidone 4.0 mg/d, or placebo) and 2-week safety follow-up. Risperidone was used to assess assay sensitivity. Primary and secondary efficacy: baseline to Week 6 change (LOCF) in PANSS total and CGI-S scores, respectively. Safety: adverse events (AEs), vital signs, laboratory measures, extrapyramidal symptom (EPS) scales.ResultsOf 732 randomized patients, 64% completed the study. Mean baseline PANSS (98) and CGI-S scores (4.8) were similar across groups. PANSS total score improvement at Week 6 was statistically significant versus placebo for cariprazine 1.5 mg/d, 3.0 mg/d, and 4.5 mg/d (placebo-adjusted improvements: −7.5, −8.9, −10.4, respectively; P < .001; LOCF) and risperidone (−15.0, P < .001, LOCF); significant improvement on CGI-S was demonstrated for all active treatments (P < .05). The most common cariprazine AEs were insomnia, EPS, akathisia, sedation, nausea, dizziness, and constipation. AE discontinuation rates were 15% for placebo, 10%, 5% and 8% for cariprazine 1.5, 3.0, and 4.5 mg/d, respectively, and 9% for risperidone 4.0 mg/d.ConclusionsCariprazine significantly improved PANSS and CGI-S scores versus placebo in acute exacerbation of schizophrenia and was generally well tolerated.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Examination with CT and image registration is a new technique that we have previously used to assess 3D segmental motions in the lumbar spine in a phantom. Current multi-slice computed tomography (CT) offers highly accurate spatial volume resolution without significant distortion and modern CT scanners makes it possible to reduce the radiation dose to the patients. Our aim was to assess segmental movement in the lumbar spine with the aforementioned method in healthy subjects and also to determine rotation accuracy on phantom vertebrae. MATERIAL AND METHOD The subjects were examined in flexion-extension using low dose CT. Eleven healthy, asymptomatic subjects participated in the current study. The subjects were placed on a custom made jig which could provoke the lumbar spine into flexion or extension. CT examination in flexion and extension was performed. The image analysis was performed using a 3D volume fusion tool, registering one of the vertebrae, and then measuring Euler angles and distances in the registered volumes. RESULTS The mean 3D facet joint translation at L4-L5 was in the right facet joint 6.1 mm (3.1-8.3), left facet joint 6.9 mm (4.9-9.9), at L5-S1: right facet joint 4.5 mm (1.4-6.9), and for the left facet joint 4.8 mm (2.0-7.7). In subjects the mean angles at the L4-L5 level were: in the sagittal plane 14.3°, coronal plane 0.9° (-0.6 to 2.8), and in the transverse plane 0.6° (-0.4 to 1.5), in the L5-S1 level the rotation was in sagittal plane 10.2° (2.4-16.1), coronal plane 0° (-1.2 to 1.2), and in the transverse plane 0.2° (-0.7 to 0.3). Repeated analysis for 3D facet joint movement was on average 5 mm with a standard error of mean of 0.6 mm and repeatability of 1.8 mm (CI 95%). For segmental rotation in the sagittal plane the mean rotation was 11.5° and standard error of mean 1°. The repeatability for rotation was 2.8° (CI 95%). The accuracy for rotation in the phantom was in the sagittal plane 0.7°, coronal plane 1°, and 0.7 in the transverse plane. CONCLUSION This method to assess movement in the lumbar spine is a truly 3D method with a high precision giving both visual and numerical output. We believe that this method for measuring spine movement is useful both in research and in clinical settings.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the accommodative amplitudes with three different methods in pseudophakic eyes with different types of intraocular lenses (IOLs). METHODS Fifty-one pseudophakic eyes of 44 patients (age: 72.02+/-8.53 years) were studied. One of two different types of IOL were implanted (N=30, three-piece Alcon Acrysof MA60AC and N=21, one-piece Alcon Acrysof SA60AT) in-the-bag after standard phacoemulsification. The time of the examinations was 13.85+/-7.35 months postoperatively. We measured the amplitude of accommodation with three different methods: (1) subjective minus-lenses-to-blur method; (2) a new optical device (ACMaster, Carl Zeiss, Jena, Germany) using partial coherence interference (PCI) technique under physiological stimulus; and (3) objective anterior chamber depth measuring with a standard A-scan ultrasonic device (Ultrascan Imaging System, Alcon Laboratories, Forth Worth, TX, USA) before and after pharmacological relaxation of ciliary muscle. RESULTS We measured -0.83+/-0.63 D amplitude of accommodation with subjective minus-lenses-to-blur method. The IOL position did not change significantly during physiological accommodation effort measured with PCI method (-0.026+/-0.134 mm). The change in the IOLs position between near fixating and after ciliary muscle relaxation was -0.18+/-0.28 mm measured with ultrasound. There were no significant differences between values of one-piece and three-piece IOL groups. CONCLUSION The amplitude of accommodation measured by subjective and objective methods are different and are not comparable with each other. We did not observe any difference between values of examined two types of IOLs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Gamma knife and multileaf collimator LINAC have recently gained notoriety in the treatment of vestibular schwannomas. Without the use of gamma knife or LINAC, we have successfully pursued the 125-iodine interstitial irradiation of three vestibular schwannomas. CASE REPORT Up to March 2004, there was a 57 and 45 month follow-up period in two cases. One patient died of heart insufficiency 15 months after the brachytherapy. At the end of the follow-up period audiometric examinations revealed slight improvements of hearing in patients 1 and 2. In patient 1, the tumor volume measured was 4.06 mL on the control CT indicating a 40 % shrinkage in comparison to the 6.74 mL target volume at the brachytherapy. In patient 2, the tumor volume measured on the control MRI was 6.64 mL, indicating a 42 % shrinkage of the 11.45 mL target volume at the time of brachytherapy. Eleven months after the brachytherapy in patient 3 we found 10 % tumor shrinkage, a post-irradiation cyst developed inside the tumor and reached up to 35 % of the tumor volume. INTERVENTION In the treatment of three vestibular schwannomas we have used CT and image-fusion guided 125-iodine stereotactic brachytherapy. CONCLUSION Due to financial considerations, gamma knife and LINAC are not available for many countries and neurosurgical institutes. In the absence of the above-mentioned radiosurgical methods, we have shown brachytherapy as a new alternative and solution in the treatment of the three patients studied with vestibular schwannoma.

Abstract
The purpose of the study was to define the value of fat suppressed STIR sequence in the MRI of the conserved breast. To our knowledge, this study is the first clinical evaluation of STIR sequence in post-therapy conditions. Forty patients with early (T1-2, N0-1) invasive breast cancer underwent conservative surgery and postoperative radiotherapy. Routine follow-up examinations, including physical examination and mammography were supplemented with breast MRI in all cases 6-166 months (mean 27.6) after initial treatments. Three patients had bilateral cancer. Including follow-up (9 patients) MRI examinations, altogether 53 MRIs were available for analysis. An 0.5 T MRI (Elscint, Haifa, Israel) was used with double breast coil. Axial T1 and T2 weighted spin echo, STIR and 3D gradient echo dynamic sequences were performed. Pre- and postcontrast slices underwent serial subtraction. Twenty-eight circumscribed lesions were identified. All were well visualised on STIR sequence, regardless of histologic nature of lesions. One low grade DCIS was not detected by any sequence. Differential diagnosis between benign and malignant lesions was not possible by STIR sequence alone. STIR sequence was found to be more sensitive in the detection of treatment related breast edema and fluid collection, than T2 SE (spin-echo) sequence. Even the patients who were not good candidates for subtracted contrast enhanced dynamic studies - because of motion artefacts - could have been examined with satisfactory results. STIR is a very sensitive sequence for depicting circumscribed lesions and post-therapy complications, but not suitable for differentiation. It is a useful tool in the follow-up of patients with conserved breast subjected to radiotherapy.

Abstract
DMP 504, a potential bile acid sequestrant for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia, is a highly insoluble, cross-linked polymer which does not lend itself to ordinary means of characterization used for drug substances in the pharmaceutical industry. Therefore, alternative characterization techniques have been sought. As part of an effort into extensive characterization of DMP 504 drug substance, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) was employed to provide insight into details of the DMP 504 polymer structure. The primary motivation for determining the structure of the polymer chain is to relate the DMP 504 structure to its performance properties as a bile acid sequestrant. Characterization of the polymer chain and understanding of the structural basis of its properties is essential in optimizing and controlling the manufacture of reproducible drug substance. NMR has proven a versatile tool for the description of polymer structure and dynamics because of the wide range of nuclear interactions affecting the NMR signal. This allows the design of experiments to elicit information about specific polymer interactions or properties. The methods of sample preparation utilized to obtain NMR spectra of the insoluble polymer, as well as a discussion and comparison of results for the characterization of DMP 504 obtained using several different NMR techniques will be presented.

Abstract
Energy dissipating mechanisms and their regulatory components represent key elements of metabolism and may offer novel targets in the treatment of metabolic disorders, such as obesity and diabetes. Recent studies have shown that a mitochondrial uncoupling protein (UCP2), which uncouples mitochondrial oxidation from phosphorylation, is expressed in the rodent brain by neurons that are known to regulate autonomic, metabolic, and endocrine processes. To help establish the relevance of these rodent data to primate physiology, we now examined UCP2 messenger RNA and peptide expressions in the brain and pituitary gland of nonhuman primates. In situ hybridization histochemistry showed that UCP2 messenger RNA is expressed in the paraventricular, supraoptic, suprachiasmatic, and arcuate nuclei of the primate hypothalamus and also in the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland. Immunocytochemistry revealed abundant UCP2 expression in cell bodies and axonal processes in the aforementioned nuclei as well as in other hypothalamic and brain stem regions and all parts of the pituitary gland. In the hypothalamus, UCP2 was coexpressed with neuropeptide Y, CRH, oxytocin, and vasopressin. In the pituitary, vasopressin and oxytocin-producing axonal processes in the posterior lobe and POMC cells in the intermediate and anterior lobes expressed UCP2. On the other hand, none of the GH-producing cells of the anterior pituitary was found to produce UCP2. The abundance and distribution pattern of UCP2 in the primate brain and pituitary suggest that this protein is evolutionary conserved and may relate to central autonomic, endocrine and metabolic regulation.

Abstract
1. The methyl ester prodrug roxifiban is an orally active, potent and selective antagonist of the platelet glycoprotein GPIIb/IIIa receptor and is being developed for the prevention and treatment of arterial thrombosis. 2. Roxifiban was rapidly hydrolyzed to the zwitterion XV459 in vivo and by liver slices from the rat, mouse and human and by intestinal cores from dog. XV459 was metabolized to only a small extent in vitro and in vivo. 3. Studies with rat and dog given radiolabelled roxifiban showed limited oral absorption with the majority of the radiolabel being excreted in faeces. After i.v. doses of 14C-roxifiban, most of the radioactivity was recovered in the urine of rat whereas the dog excreted significant amounts of radioactivity in bile and urine. 4. XV459 could be metabolized extrahepatically by dog gut flora to produce an isoxazoline ring-opened metabolite. In vitro hepatic metabolism of XV459 was mainly by hydroxylation at the prochiral and chiral centres of the isoxazoline ring. These hydroxylated metabolites were not detected in the urine and plasma of human volunteers administered roxifiban. 5. Initial LC/MS identification of metabolites was achieved by dosing the rat with an equimolar mixture of d0:d4 roxifiban and detecting isotopic clusters of pseudomolecular ions. Unequivocal characterization of these metabolites was achieved by LC/MS, LC/NMR and high-field NMR techniques using synthetic standards of the metabolites. 6. The synthesis of one hydroxylated metabolite enabled the assignment of the correct stereochemistry of the substituted hydroxyl group on the isoxazoline ring.

Abstract
The postulated formation of oxirene-derived metabolites from rats treated with a disubstituted alkyne, (S)-6-chloro-4-(cyclopropylethynyl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)-3, 4-dihydro-2(1H)-quinazolinone (DPC 961), is described. The reactivity of this postulated oxirene intermediate led to the formation of novel glutathione adducts whose structures were confirmed by LC/MS and by two-dimensional NMR experiments. These metabolites were either excreted in rat bile or degraded to mercapturic acid conjugates and eliminated in urine. To demonstrate the oxidation of the triple bond, an analogue of DPC 961 was synthesized, whereby the two carbons of the alkyne moiety were replaced with (13)C stable isotope labels. Rats were orally administered [(13)C]DPC 961 and glutathione adducts isolated from bile. The presence of an oxygen atom on one of the (13)C labels of the alkyne was demonstrated unequivocally by NMR experiments. Administration of (14)C-labeled DPC 961 showed that biliary elimination was the major route of excretion with the 8-OH glucuronide conjugate (M1) accounting for greater than 90% of the eliminated radioactivity. On the basis of radiochemical profiling, the glutathione-derived metabolites were minor in comparison to the glucuronide conjugate. Studies with cDNA-expressed rat enzymes, polyclonal antibodies, and chemical inhibitors pointed to the involvement of P450 3A1 and P450 1A2 in the formation of the postulated oxirene intermediate. The proposed mechanism shown in Scheme 1 begins with P450-catalyzed formation of an oxirene, rearrangement to a reactive cyclobutenyl ketone, and a 1,4-Michael addition with endogenous glutathione to produce two isomeric adducts, GS-1 and GS-2. The glutathione adducts were subsequently catabolized via the mercapturic acid pathway to cysteinylglycine, cysteine, and N-acetylcysteine adducts. The transient existence of the alpha,beta-unsaturated cyclobutenyl ketone was demonstrated by incubating the glutathione adduct in the presence of N-acetylcysteine and monitoring the formation of N-acetylcysteine adducts by LC/MS. Epimerization of GS-1 to GS-2 was also observed when N-acetylcysteine was omitted from the incubation.

Abstract
Efavirenz (Sustiva) is a potent and specific inhibitor of the HIV-1 reverse transcriptase and is approved for the treatment of HIV infection. The metabolism of efavirenz in different species has been described previously. Efavirenz is primarily metabolized in rats to the glucuronide conjugate of 8-OH efavirenz. Electrospray ionization-liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry analyses of bile samples from rats dosed with either efavirenz or with 8-OH efavirenz revealed three polar metabolites, M9, M12, and M13, with pseudomolecular ions [M-H](-) at m/z 733, 602, and 749, respectively. The characteristic mass spectral fragmentation patterns obtained for metabolites M9 and M13 suggested that these were glutathione-sulfate diconjugates, and the presence of a glutathione moiety in metabolite M9 was confirmed by liquid chromatograpy/nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis of bile extracts. Metabolite M12 was characterized by liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry as a glucuronide-sulfate diconjugate. Unambiguous structures of M9, M12, and M13 were obtained from one-dimensional proton and carbon NMR as well as proton-proton (correlated spectroscopy, two-dimensional shift correlation), proton-carbon heteronuclear multiple quantum correlation, and long-range proton-carbon (heteronuclear multiple bond correlation) correlated two-dimensional NMR analyses of metabolites isolated from rat bile. The mass spectral and NMR analyses of M10, which was isolated from rat urine, suggested a cysteinylglycine-sulfate diconjugate. The isolation of these polar metabolites for further characterization by NMR was aided by mass spectral analyses of HPLC fractions and solid phase extraction extracts during the isolation steps. The complete characterization of these novel diconjugates demonstrates that further phase II metabolism of polar conjugates such as sulfates could take place in vivo.

Abstract
PURPOSE The value of adjuvant radiation therapy (RT) of the axilla and supraclavicular fossa is controversial in early-stage breast cancer. This retrospective study was undertaken to identify pathological risk factors that would predict which subsets of patients would benefit from regional nodal irradiation (RNI). METHODS AND MATERIALS A total of 1309 women with Stage I/II breast cancer underwent full axillary dissection and either mastectomy (n = 894) or breast-conserving surgery (n = 415). Of these, 712 patients received RNI. The median axilla/supraclavicular fossa dose was 50 Gy. RESULTS The 10-year actuarial rate of axillary failure (AXF) was 0. 5% in N0 and 2.8% in N1 patients (p 5, also correlated with AXF; the respective rate was 4.3% vs. 1.2% (p = 0.0142). Neither the incidence of AXF nor the time to AXF was affected significantly by the use of RNI, but in N1 patients with retrieved nodes < or = 5, the rate of AXF was 8.3% without RNI vs. 0% with RNI (p = 0.2340). The 10-year actuarial rate of supraclavicular failure (SCF) was 1.2% in N0 and 6.3% in N1 patients (p = 0.0000). SCF was also associated with the extent of nodal involvement (p = 0.0031). The incidence of SCF was not significantly affected by the use of RNI. However, when the results of N1bii and N1biv patients were evaluated as a single group, the effect of RNI was significant (p = 0.0358). The rates of SCF without RNI were high in patients with N1bii or N1biv stage: 10% and 37.5% and, with RNI, 3.2% and 18.2%, respectively. These findings were reinforced by the various combinations of T- and N1-stage. The mean time to SCF was 53.6 months in the irradiated and 24.9 months in the nonirradiated patients (p = 0.0007). CONCLUSIONS After a complete axillary dissection, only N1 patients with retrieved nodes < or = 5 may be considered for axillary RT. Elective supraclavicular RT is suggested for patients with N1bii or N1biv stage. Supraclavicular irradiation decreases the incidence and delays the appearance of SCF.

Abstract
DuP 937, an anthrapyrazole antitumour agent that is chemically unstable in aqueous solution, was shown, by absorption spectroscopy, to form an inclusion complex with heptakis(2,6-di-O-methyl)-beta-cyclodextrin (DM beta CD) in aqueous solution. Proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to determine the stoichiometry and association constant of the complex. The 1:1 stoichiometry of the complex was established by the continuous variation method by following changes in the chemical shifts of aromatic protons of DuP 937. The complex association constants determined by different techniques used in this study were in the same order of magnitude. The kinetics of degradation of DuP 937 in aqueous solution were investigated as a function of DM beta CD concentration at pH 5.5 and 60 degrees C. The results indicated about a seven-fold increase in the stability of DuP 937 in the presence of DM beta CD in aqueous solution.

Abstract
DuP 747, a selective kappa agonist analgesic, was found to have at least two polymorphic forms, and this was confirmed by X-ray powder diffraction. DSC and thermomicroscopic studies indicated the polymorphic pair to be monotropic. Solubility studies suggested the relative stability of the two forms to be similar. The infrared (IR) and Raman spectra of the two crystal forms were significantly different, and their complementary nature was shown from the differences in peak intensities. Solid-state 13C-NMR data of the polymorphs showed only minor differences between the two forms. When viewed on the molecular level through the use of vibrational and NMR spectroscopies, the conformation of the molecule in the two polymorphs appears to be roughly equivalent. The magnitude of the spectral differences of the two polymorphs is, however, consistent with those that can be expected for two crystal forms that have resulted from different modes of packing, as caused by the solvent environment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We reviewed the evidence for an intrinsic ovarian renin-angiotensin system (OVRAS), highlighting potential diverse signaling in this system through different bioactive angiotensin peptides, their specific receptors, and second messengers. In addition, sites of action for OVRAS in the regulation of ovarian function in health and disease were reviewed. DATA SOURCES We used published journals and abstracts from national scientific meetings. Current developments in the renin-angiotensin field are historically set. STUDY SELECTION One hundred referenced articles provided studies on renin-angiotensin systems in mammalian species, including humans. DATA ABSTRACTION Interpretation of the reviewed publication was in line with the original authors' conclusions and statistical analysis. DATA SYNTHESIS Techniques in molecular biology, biochemistry, and immunohistochemistry have identified an OVRAS in mammalian species. Ovarian tissues contain all the elements for the production of angiotensin, including prorenin/renin, angiotensinogen, and angiotensin-converting enzyme. In addition, angiotensin II is present in ovarian compartments, and receptors for angiotensin II are demonstrated on specific ovarian cells. Angiotensin II is implicated to play a role in ovulation, steroidogenesis, follicular atresia, and hyperandrogenic syndromes. CONCLUSIONS The newly identified OVRAS may have important actions in the ovary that range from regulation of ovulation to ovarian dysfunction, such as hyperandrogenic syndromes in women. In this respect, the OVRAS is a putative paracrine/autocrine regulator in the ovary, and pharmacologic regulation of the OVRAS may provide new methods for the management of fertility and reproduction.

Abstract
In women with stage IB (FIGO) carcinoma of the cervix, the authors investigated the efficacy of the manual low-dose rate (LDR) and afterloading high-dose rate (HDR) technique in terms of local freedom from tumor. It was found that in the 194 patients treated with the low-dose rate LDR-technique (computed dose point A 23.5 GY; point B 4.7 Gy), the surgical specimen was free of tumor in 37%. Among the 161 patients treated with the high-dose rate technique (point A11 Gy; point B 2 Gy), 41% of the surgical specimens were free of tumor. Follow-up examinations in the group receiving LDR-brachytherapy were carried out within a period of between ten and 90 months after treatment (average: 30.76 months). In 84% of the cases, NED was established. In the patient group treated with HDR-brachytherapy, follow-up examinations performed within a period of between six and 42 months after treatment (average 17.17 months), NED was found in 90%.

Abstract
We transfected mouse 10T1/2 fibroblasts with the H-ras oncogene and isolated lines expressing H-ras. One of the lines exhibited a highly malignant phenotype with the ability to produce large tumors and to colonize the lung after tail vein injection. In addition, the cells of this line showed increased collagenase IV production, directed migration and invasiveness, properties associated with the ability of tumor cells to metastasize. Since cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) is known to down-regulate ras expression, we exposed the malignant cells (Cl-1) to either N6, 2',0-dibutyryl cAMP (DB-cAMP) or 8-bromo cAMP (8-Br-cAMP), either with or without a phosphodiesterase inhibitor. We found that these treatments reduced the expression of ras, chemotaxis, invasiveness, and lung colonization of the ras-transformed cells. We therefore postulate that the malignancy of some cells may be regulated by alterations in the intracellular cAMP levels by suppressing ras expression and/or by reducing other activities required for the dissemination of tumor cells.

Abstract
The intracellular cytosolic calcium concentration ([Ca]i) was determined in cultured rat luteal cells using the calcium-chelating dye fura-2 and microspectrofluorimetry. Angiotensin-II (Ang-II) induced a dose-dependent transient increase in [Ca]i (ED50, 9.0 +/- 6.5 nM). After the initial peak in [Ca]i, cytosolic calcium returned to a secondary elevated basal level that was dependent upon the presence of extracellular calcium. Pretreatment of rat luteal cells with Ang-II (100 nM) desensitized a subsequent response to a higher concentration (1 microM), but did not desensitize a prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha)-induced calcium flux. Although the peak increases in [Ca]i induced by Ang-II (1 microM) and PGF2 alpha (10 microM) were not significantly different, the plateau phase stimulated by PGF2 alpha was significantly higher (P < 0.05) than that stimulated by Ang-II (1 microM). Pretreatment of luteal cells with the type 2 Ang-II receptor antagonist PD 123319 (10 microM) did not inhibit calcium mobilization; however, Ang-II (1 microM)-induced calcium mobilization was dose dependently blocked by the type 1 Ang-II receptor antagonist Losartan (DuP 753). The ID50 for Losartan was 5.2 +/- 1.8 nM. Pretreatment of the luteal cells with the endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin (1 microM) also blocked Ang-II-induced calcium mobilization. These data demonstrate the presence of the type 1 Ang-II receptor in rat luteal cells, through which Ang-II dose dependently mobilizes calcium from an intracellular source, probably the endoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
We carried out a retrospective study of the frequency of ankle sprains in basketball players. A questionnaire about previous ankle injuries, time off after such injuries, current ankle problems, personal data, number of practice hours and the use of prophylactic measures was sent out to 102 basketball players in a second division league in Sweden. Ninety-six players answered. 92% of them had suffered an ankle sprain while playing basketball, and of these 83% reported repeated sprains of one ankle. In the last two seasons, 78% of the players had injured at least one ankle. The injury frequency in the investigation was 5.5 ankle injuries per 1000 activity hours. 22% of the players used some kind of prophylactic support of their ankle joints. Because of the great number of ankle sprains and the disability in terms of time away from sports that they cause, prevention of these injuries is essential.

Abstract
EMG activity from eight shoulder muscles in parallel was recorded from 4 patients with generalized joint laxity. During external rotation of the humerus in 45 degrees abduction, humeroscapular dislocation occurred in 2 patients and subluxation in the 2 others. The activity level in the subscapularis was low, and the activation speed was slow. The low muscle activity and delay in activation of the subscapularis muscle may contribute to the instability.

Abstract
Patients with malignant parotid tumors were treated at two different centres with slightly ionizing radiation (110 patients) and neutron therapy (15 patients). The treatment results are compared. The principles of comparison applied in this analysis are identical. The histologic classification was made according to the W.H.O. recommendation of 1972 and the staging according to Becske. Local tumor control is the criterion applied in the comparative assessment of both methods. The analysis has shown that there is no significant difference in the treatment results within the individual stages of tumor's advancement after application of an orthovolt therapy and a telecobalt therapy. Patients treated in early stages (stages I and III) had a substantially higher rate of local tumor control (72%) than patients in advanced stages (46%, stages III and IV). A more favorable treatment results was achieved by neutron therapy in all stages of tumor's advancement. In this case the rate of patients with local tumor control (87%) was significantly higher than after radiotherapy with slightly ionizing radiation (46%).

Abstract
In order to determine the influence of plasma lipids on the apparent molecular size of human F VIII/vWF and on the relationship of the factor-related properties, namely F VIII:C, F VIIIR:Rcof, and F VIIIR:Ag to F VIII/vWF, the factor's elution pattern in the presence of lipids on Sephacryl 1000 was investigated. When fresh plasma of fasting donors was chromatographed on this gel, F VIII/vWF eluted in a single sharp peak with all three F VIII-related activities appearing in the separation range of the gel column. When fresh postprandial lipaemic plasma was chromatographed on this gel, F VIII/vWF showed distinct heterogeneity in the elution pattern with respect to molecular size and relationship to the F VIII-related properties. After incubation of lipaemic plasma with phospholipase C the elution pattern of F VIII/vWF changed from heterogeneity to homogeneity similar to those of plasma of fasting donors. After incubation of lipaemic plasma with triglycerid lipase the elution pattern of F VIII/vWF remained heterogenous. A similar heterogeneity in the elution pattern of F VIII/vWF was found when plasma of fasting donors was mixed with a preparation of very low density lipoproteins derived from human postprandial plasma or with a preparation of coagulant-active phospholipids.

Abstract
The load on the talocrural joint during three different ways of lifting was compared and discussed with biomechanical and ergonomical aspects. Healthy subjects lifted a 12.8-kg box from floor to table-level with bent and straight knees. The loading moment of force about the bilateral ankle axis was calculated by means of a computerized static sagittal plane model. Electromyography was recorded from the tibial anterior, gastrocnemius, and soleus muscles. The mean maximum loading moment was found to be 68 newton-meters with an estimated joint compressive force of 2.9 times body weight. The lowest loading moments obtained were associated with lifting the burden between bent knees and close to the pelvis.

Abstract
Survivors of suicide (184) were classified clinically into serious, ambivalent, and gesture pre- and post-suicidal states. It was noted that the MMPI profile interpretation concurs with this classification and shows the Masculinity-Femininity trend. The profile interpretation makes use of the individual interscale relationships and actuarial profiles. The relationship with the psychiatric clinical diagnostic category is also necessary. The Masculinity-Femininity Scale is essential in MMPI profile interpretation and is significant in statistical terms in differentiating the serious (high risk) attempters from the other groups. The Masculinity-Femininity Scale in conjunction with intrapsychic factor indicators (Scales 2, 4, 6, 7, 8) contributes to the profile interpretation to such an extent that one can significantly differentiate suicidal from non-suicidal depressives, schizophrenics, and personality disorders. In qualitative terms, the Masculinity-Femininity Scale suggests that the serious suicide attempters are psychosexually maladjusted, lack self-confidence, and healthy self-esteem. This is due to a disturbance in their developmental characterological structure.
