Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between dietary patterns and head and neck cancer has rarely been addressed. PATIENTS AND METHODS We used individual-level pooled data from five case-control studies (2452 cases and 5013 controls) participating in the International Head and Neck Cancer Epidemiology consortium. A posteriori dietary patterns were identified through a principal component factor analysis carried out on 24 nutrients derived from study-specific food-frequency questionnaires. Odds ratios (ORs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated using unconditional logistic regression models on quintiles of factor scores. RESULTS We identified three major dietary patterns named 'animal products and cereals', 'antioxidant vitamins and fiber', and 'fats'. The 'antioxidant vitamins and fiber' pattern was inversely related to oral and pharyngeal cancer (OR=0.57, 95% CI 0.43-0.76 for the highest versus the lowest score quintile). The 'animal products and cereals' pattern was positively associated with laryngeal cancer (OR=1.54, 95% CI 1.12-2.11), whereas the 'fats' pattern was inversely associated with oral and pharyngeal cancer (OR=0.78, 95% CI 0.63-0.97) and positively associated with laryngeal cancer (OR=1.69, 95% CI 1.22-2.34). CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that diets rich in animal products, cereals, and fats are positively related to laryngeal cancer, and those rich in fruit and vegetables inversely related to oral and pharyngeal cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Children with new-onset seizures may have antecedent neurobiologic alterations that predispose them to developing seizures. Our aim was to evaluate hippocampal and thalamic volumes and lobar cortical thickness of children with new-onset seizures. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-nine children with new-onset seizures and normal MR imaging findings were recruited. Ten patients had generalized seizures, 19 had partial seizures, and 15 were on antiepileptic medications. Twenty-three age-matched healthy controls were also recruited. Hippocampal and thalamic volumes and lobar cortical thickness, including frontal, medial temporal, lateral temporal, parietal, cingulate, and occipital cortical thickness, were assessed by using volumetric T1-weighted imaging and were compared between patients and controls. RESULTS There were no significant differences in hippocampal and thalamic volumes of patients with new-onset seizures, including the subgroups with generalized and partial seizures and those on and off antiepileptic medications, compared with controls (P > .01). There was significant reduction in cortical thickness in right cingulate (P = .004), right medial temporal (P = .006), and left frontal (P = .007) cortices in patients with new-onset seizures. Patients with generalized seizures did not demonstrate a significant reduction in cortical thickness (P > .01). Patients with partial seizures demonstrated a significant reduction in cortical thickness in the right frontal (P = .008), right parietal (P = .003), and left frontal (P = .007) cortices. There were no significant differences in cortical thickness among patients on or off antiepileptic medications (P > .01). CONCLUSIONS We found reduced cortical thickness in children with new-onset seizures. Further studies are necessary to elucidate the neurobiologic relevance of these structural changes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cortical and white matter changes have been identified outside the MR imaging-visible cortical/subcortical tubers in the tuberous sclerosis complex. The aim of this study was to evaluate DTI changes in the corpus callosum and internal capsules and to correlate the DTI changes with cortical/subcortical tuber load. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twelve TSC patients and 23 controls underwent MR imaging including DTI. FA, trace, D( ||), and D() of genu and splenium of corpus callosum and right and left internal capsules were assessed. The number and volume of cortical/subcortical tubers were correlated with DTI indices of corpus callosum and internal capsules. RESULTS In the genu and splenium, FA was lower and trace (P < .01) and D() were higher (P < .01), and in the internal capsules, trace was higher (P = .04) in TSC patients compared with controls. The total tuber volume correlated positively with trace of genu (r = 0.77, P < .01) and splenium (r = 0.69, P = .01) and with D() of splenium (r = 0.68, P = .01), and negatively with FA of splenium (r = -0.60, P = .04) of corpus callosum. The left and right hemispheric tuber volume correlated positively with trace of left (r = 0.56, P = .05) and right (r = 0.67, P = .02) internal capsules. CONCLUSIONS Our findings of reduced FA, elevated trace, and elevated D() in the corpus callosum and internal capsules may be related to abnormalities in myelin. The correlations between tuber volume and DTI indices in corpus callosum and internal capsules suggested that more extensive malformation as demonstrated by larger tuber load was more likely to be associated with more severe DTI changes in the commissural and projection white matter.

Abstract
An 81-year-old man presented with a large, infected right atrial thrombus that was refractory to anticoagulants and several courses of antibiotics. The risk of surgical removal of the thrombus, which was associated with a pacemaker electrode, was considered prohibitive. The patient was treated for 7 days with low-dose (40 mg/day) tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA). Hemostatic monitoring during infusion revealed (1) a plasma t-PA antigen that was approximately 5% of that achieved during short-course t-PA for acute myocardial infarction, (2) biochemical evidence of prolonged clot lysis, and (3) no significant depletion of fibrinogen or plasminogen. Nearly complete dissolution of the thrombus was observed. His bacteremia was eradicated by intravenous penicillin despite the presence of the pacemaker lead. This case highlights the benefits of combined antibiotic and thrombolytic therapy and documents for the first time the response of the human hemostatic system to prolonged t-PA infusion and the plasma t-PA levels attained when thrombolytic therapy is administered in this manner. Prolonged courses of fibrinolytic agents may be a good alternative to surgical intervention in selected patients with infected, right-sided intracardiac thrombi.

Abstract
18586 Background: Cancer treatment often results in injury to epithelial surfaces. These injuries are often symptomatic and can delay or prevent further treatment. Since transforming growth factor-1 (TGF-ß) mediates inflammation, fibrosis, and epithelial mitogenesis, agents modulating TGF-ß may be useful in treating such wounds. We synthesized a dodecapeptide containing the active site of human TGF-ß. It is a TGF-ß antagonist in vitro. We investigated whether application to cutaneous wounds might promote epithelialization and decrease scarring by directly blocking local TGF-ß activity. Methods: We applied synthetic TGF-ß antagonist (1.5 mM in gel carrier, topically), with gel-only and no-treatment controls, to 6 standardized thermal burn wounds in each of 4 pigs. Wounds were measured and photographed for 41 d., then excised. Wound dimensions and percent epithelialization were calculated from photographs. Scar volume was estimated as surface area (photographs) x depth (microscopy). Statistical analysis employed student’s t-test. Additional experiments utilized skin excision wounds in rabbits and pigs. Recombinant TGF-ß and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) were applied to identical wounds in other pigs and rabbits in parallel experiments as additional controls. Results: In TGF-ß antagonist-treated pig burn wounds, epithelialization was complete on d. 26 ± 2 (mean ± SD); control wounds were 70 ± 10% re-epithelialized by d. 26 (p < 0.001). Contraction rate, collagen and fibronectin content, and scar volume were all significantly less in treated wounds. TGF- ß and PDGF each retarded wound epithelialization. Conclusions: Treatment of standard skin wounds with a synthetic TGF-ß antagonist promotes epithelialization in a whole-animal model. This agent may be useful in human epithelial injuries due to chemotherapy or radiation. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
We measure the masses of b hadrons in exclusively reconstructed final states containing a J/psi --> mu-mu+ decay using 220 pb(-1) of data collected by the CDF II experiment. We find: m(B+) = 5279.10 +/- 0.41(stat.) +/- 0.36(sys.) MeV/c2, m(B0) = 5279.63 +/- 0.53(stat.) +/- 0.33(sys.) MeV/c2, m(B(s)0) = 5366.01 +/- 0.73(stat.) +/- 0.33(sys.) MeV/c2, m(lambda(b)0) = 5619.7 +/- 1.2(stat.) +/- 1.2(sys.) MeV/c2. m(B+) - m(B0) = -0.53 +/- 0.67(stat.) +/- 0.14(sys.) MeV/c2, m(B(s)0) - m(B0) = 86.38 +/- 0.90(stat.) +/- 0.06(sys.) MeV/c2, m(lambda(b)0) - m(B0) = 339.2 +/- 1.4(stat.) +/- 0.1(sys.) MeV/c2. The measurements of the B(s)0, lambda(b)0 mass, m(B(s)0) - m(B0) and m(lambda(b)0) - m(B0) mass difference are of better precision than the current world averages.

Abstract
We present the results of a search for anomalous resonant production of tau lepton pairs with large invariant mass, the first such search using the CDF II Detector in Run II of the Tevatron pp collider. Such anomalous production could arise from various new physics processes. In a data sample corresponding to 195 pb(-1) of integrated luminosity we predict 2.8+/-0.5 events from standard model background processes and observe 4. We use this result to set limits on the production of heavy scalar and vector particles decaying to tau lepton pairs.

Abstract
We present a measurement of the ratio of top-quark branching fractions R = B(t --> Wb)/B(t --> Wq), where q can be a b, s, or a d quark, using lepton-plus-jets and dilepton data sets with an integrated luminosity of approximately 162 pb(-1) collected with the Collider Detector at Fermilab during Run II of the Tevatron. The measurement is derived from the relative numbers of tt events with different multiplicity of identified secondary vertices. We set a lower limit of R > 0.61 at 95% confidence level.

Abstract
We present a search for long-lived doubly charged Higgs bosons (H(+/- +/-)), with signatures of high ionization energy loss and muonlike penetration. We use 292 pb(-1) of data collected in pp collisions at sqrt[s] = 1.96 TeV by the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. Observing no evidence of long-lived doubly charged particle production, we exclude H(+/- +/-)(L) and H(+/- +/-)(R) bosons with masses below 133 GeV/c(2) and 109 GeV/c(2), respectively. In the degenerate case we exclude H(+/- +/-) mass below 146 GeV/c(2). All limits are quoted at the 95% confidence level.

Abstract
We present the first evidence of charmless decays of the B(0)(s) meson, the decay B(0)(s)--> phiphi, and a measurement of the branching ratio BR(B(0)(s)--> phiphi) using 180 pb(-1) of data collected by the CDF II experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. In addition, the BR and direct CP asymmetry for the B+-->phiK+ decay are measured. We obtain BR(B(0)(s)--> phiphi)=[14(+6)(-5)(stat)+/-6(syst)] x 10(-6), BR(B+-->phiK+)=[7.6+/-1.3(stat)+/-0.6(syst)] x 10(-6), and A(CP)(B+-->phiK+)= -0.07+/-0.17(stat)+0.03 / -0.02(syst). Both decays are governed in the standard model by second order (penguin) b-->s(-)ss amplitudes.

Abstract
We report on a search for anomalous kinematics of tt dilepton events in pp collisions at square root of s=1.96 TeV using 193 pb(-1) of data collected with the CDF II detector. We developed a new a priori technique designed to isolate the subset in a data sample revealing the largest deviation from standard model (SM) expectations and to quantify the significance of this departure. In the four-variable space considered, no particular subset shows a significant discrepancy, and we find that the probability of obtaining a data sample less consistent with the SM than what is observed is 1.0%-4.5%.

Abstract
We report a measurement of the rate of prompt diphoton production in pp collisions at square root of s=1.96 TeV using a data sample of 207 pb(-1) collected with the upgraded Collider Detector at Fermilab. The background from nonprompt sources is determined using a statistical method based on differences in the electromagnetic showers. The cross section is measured as a function of the diphoton mass, the transverse momentum of the diphoton system, and the azimuthal angle between the two photons and is found to be consistent with perturbative QCD predictions.

Abstract
We present a measurement of the W(+)W(-) production cross section using 184 pb(-1) of p(p) collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV collected with the Collider Detector at Fermilab. Using the dilepton decay channel W(+)W(-)-->l(+)nul(-), where the charged leptons can be either electrons or muons, we find 17 candidate events compared to an expected background of 5.0(+2.2)(-0.8) events. The resulting W(+)W(-) production cross-section measurement of sigma(pp-->W(+)W(-))=14.6(+5.8)(-5.1)(stat)(+1.8)(-3.0)(syst) +/- 0.9(lum) pb agrees well with the standard model expectation.

Abstract
We present a measurement of relative partial widths and decay rate CP asymmetries in K-K+ and pi(-)pi(+) decays of D0 mesons produced in pp collisions at sqrt[s]=1.96 TeV. We use a sample of 2x10(5) D(*+)-->D0pi(+) (and charge conjugate) decays with the D0 decaying to K-pi(+), K-K+, and pi(-)pi(+), corresponding to 123 pb(-1) of data collected by the Collider Detector at Fermilab II experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. No significant direct CP violation is observed. We measure Gamma(D0-->K-K+)/Gamma(D0-->K-pi(+))=0.0992+/-0.0011+/-0.0012, Gamma(D0-->pi(-)pi(+))/Gamma(D0-->K-pi(+))=0.035 94+/-0.000 54+/-0.000 40, A(CP)(K-K+)=(2.0+/-1.2+/-0.6)%, and A(CP)(pi(-)pi(+))=(1.0+/-1.3+/-0.6)%, where, in all cases, the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic.

Abstract
We present measurements of the lifetimes and polarization amplitudes for B(0)(s)-->J/psiphi and B(0)(d)-->J/psiK(*0) decays. Lifetimes of the heavy and light mass eigenstates in the B(0)(s) system are separately measured for the first time by determining the relative contributions of amplitudes with definite CP as a function of the decay time. Using 203+/-15 B(0)(s) decays we obtain tau(L) = (1.05(+0.16)(-0.13) +/- 0.02) ps and tau(H) = (2.07(+0.58)(-0.46) +/- 0.03) ps. Expressed in terms of the difference DeltaGamma(s) and average Gamma(s), of the decay rates of the two eigenstates, the results are DeltaGamma(s)/Gamma(s) = (65(+25)(-33) +/- 1)% and DeltaGamma(s) = (0.47(+0.19)(-0.24) +/- 0.01) ps(-1).

Abstract
We present a search for excited and exotic electrons (e(*)) decaying to an electron and a photon, both with high transverse momentum. We use 202 pb(-1) of data collected in pp collisions at sqrt[s] = 1.96 TeV with the Collider Detector at Fermilab II detector. No signal above standard model expectation is seen for associated ee(*) production. We discuss the e(*) sensitivity in the parameter space of the excited electron mass M(e(*)) and the compositeness energy scale Lambda. In the contact interaction model, we exclude 132 GeV/c(2)<M(e(*))<879 GeV/c(2) for Lambda = M(e(*)) at 95% confidence level (C.L.). In the gauge-mediated model, we exclude 126 GeV/c(2) < M(e(*)) < 430 GeV/c(2) at 95% C.L. for the phenomenological coupling f/Lambda approximately 10(-2) GeV-1.

Abstract
We report the first measurements of inclusive W and Z cross sections times leptonic branching ratios for pp collisions at square root[s]=1.96 TeV, based on their decays to electrons and muons. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 72 pb(-1) recorded with the CDF detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. We test e-mu universality in W decays, and we measure the ratio of leptonic W and Z rates from which the leptonic branching fraction B(W-->lnu) can be extracted as well as an indirect value for the total width of the W and the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element, |V(cs)|.

Abstract
The standard model predictions for Wgamma and Zgamma production are tested using an integrated luminosity of 200 pb(-1) of pp collision data collected at the Collider Detector at Fermilab. The cross sections are measured by selecting leptonic decays of the W and Z bosons, and photons with transverse energy ET>7 GeV that are well separated from leptons. The production cross sections and kinematic distributions for the Wgamma and Zgamma data are compared to SM predictions.

Abstract
Our previous studies have demonstrated that there is a motion-related magnetic response evoked by moving sound but not stationary sound. The motion-related response reflects the dynamic activities of brain processing of auditory motion. This study focuses on the effect of attention on the response. Six normal hearing subjects were studied using a 151-channel whole-cortex magnetoencephalography (MEG) system. Four sound stimuli were designed: two sounds moved from left to right (rightward) and the other two sounds moved from right to left (leftward). Two sounds moving in the same direction were separated with an attention task. The attention task was a mathematical calculation. The results showed that when subjects listened to the moving sound, there was a clearly auditory motion related response at a latency of 649 +/- 14.2 ms. However, when subjects were doing the calculation while listening to the moving sounds, the motion related response completely disappeared. Strikingly, there was a dent at a latency of 600 ms. To our knowledge, this is probably the first study showing a neuromagnetic response which can be clearly elicited or inhibited by an attention task. We consider that the motion related response has the potential to be an objective index for the study of attention.

Abstract
It is difficult to localize the somatosensory cortex in children under 6 years using magnetoencephalography (MEG) with conventional median nerve stimulation. One main reason is that MEG data recorded from small children have poor signal-to-noise ratio due to their small heads and short hands. To find a better approach, this study investigated neuromagnetic activities following finger stimulation using spatially filtered MEG. Four healthy children have been studied with a whole cortex MEG system. Electric stimulation was applied to the thumb and the middle fingers with two Digital Rings. Two trials were recorded for each hand. Focal increases of spectral power were localized using spectrogram and synthetic aperture magnetometry (SAM). A clear response at a latency of 21 ms was identified in 3 children (3/4). Dipole modeling localized the somatosensory cortex in 2 children (2/4). SAM successfully localized the somatosensory cortex in 4 children (4/4). Interestingly, the functional region estimated for the thumb was significantly larger than that of the middle finger (p < 0.01). However, it is possible that this effect is due to a larger source amplitude rather than larger source volume. Our results demonstrated that the developed approach could map the somatosensory cortex in children ranging in age from 3 to 6. To our knowledge, this is the first report using non-invasive methods to provide quantitative data indicating that the functional area of the thumb is larger than that of the middle finger in small children.

Abstract
Our previous report has confirmed that visually presented words can elicit neuromagnetic activities from the visual cortex, angular gyrus and Broca's area. It is not clear how the words are visuospatially transformed and recognized by the human brain. Mirror reading is characterized by reading which runs in the opposite direction to normal reading, with reversals of letters. It would be very interesting to find out if there are any neuromagnetic differences between the mirror reading and normal reading. Four right-handed healthy adults have been studied with a whole cortex Magnetoencephalography (MEG) system. The stimuli consisted of eight normal oriented words and eight inverted exclamation mark section "reversed words" (mirror-image of the words). All stimuli were randomly presented on the screen in front of the subjects using DirectX. MEG data were analyzed using both single dipole modeling and synthetic aperture magnetometry (SAM). Four responses to the reversed words were identified in all four subjects. In comparison to the normally oriented words, the reversed words elicited a stronger response at a latency of 248+/-6 ms. SAM results indicated that the reversed words invoked strong activations in the left and right parietal cortices but the normally oriented words did not. The mirror reading elicited one magnetic response which is different from that of the normal reading. The difference between the mirror reading and the normal reading in terms of neuromagnetic activation may reflect the development of novel representations for reversed words.

Abstract
Conventional visual identification of epileptic spike is a challenging problem in the clinical application of magnetoencephalography (MEG). More importantly, the conventional method has problems of detecting other abnormalities such as high frequency oscillation in the human epileptic brain. The objective of this study was to develop a new approach using magnetic spectral analysis and spatial filtering. Twelve patients with seizure have been studied with a whole cortex MEG system. Fifteen epochs were recorded for each patient; each epoch was 120 seconds. Neuromagnetic spectrum was analyzed using a new method called accumulated spectrogram. Focal increases of spectral power were localized using synthetic aperture magnetometry (SAM). The MEG results were then compared with clinical findings. Focal increases of spectral power have been identified in all patients (12/12, 100%). The locations of the focal increases of spectral power were in agreement with dipole locations of spikes in 9 patients (9/12, 75%). A comparison between MEG results and clinical findings indicated that SAM revealed focal epileptic activities in two patients when dipole fitting failed. The results suggest that epileptic regions could be quantitatively identified and accurately localized using accumulated spectrogram and SAM. In comparison to visual identification of spike, the new approach is objective and sensitive, and provides the possibility of analyzing much wider frequency bands.

Abstract
We present the results of a search for doubly charged Higgs bosons (H+/-+/-) decaying to dileptons (ll(')) using approximately 240 pb(-1) of pp collision data collected by the CDF II experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron. In our search region, given by same-sign ll(') mass m(ll('))>80 GeV/c(2) (100 GeV/c(2) for ee channel), we observe no evidence for H+/-+/- production. We set limits on sigma(pp -->H++H---->l(+)l('+)l(-)l('-)) as a function of the mass of the H+/-+/- and the chirality of its couplings. Assuming exclusive same-sign dilepton decays, we derive lower mass limits on H(+/-+/-)(L) of 133, 136, and 115 GeV/c(2) in the ee, mumu, and emu channels, respectively, and a lower mass limit of 113 GeV/c(2) on H(+/-+/-)(R) in the mumu channel, all at the 95% confidence level.

Abstract
We report a measurement of the tt production cross section using dilepton events with jets and missing transverse energy in pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV. Using a 197+/-12 pb(-1) data sample recorded by the upgraded Collider Detector at Fermilab, we use two complementary techniques to select candidate events. We compare the number of observed events and selected kinematical distributions with the predictions of the standard model and find good agreement. The combined result of the two techniques yields a tt production cross section of 7.0(+2.4)(-2.1)(stat)+1.6-1.1(syst)+/-0.4(lum) pb.

Abstract
We report on a search for B(0)(s)-->micro(+)micro(-) and B(0)(d)-->micro(+)micro(-) decays in pp collisions at square root of s=1.96 TeV using 171 pb(-1) of data collected by the CDF II experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The decay rates of these rare processes are sensitive to contributions from physics beyond the standard model. One event survives all our selection requirements, consistent with the background expectation. We derive branching ratio limits of B(B(0)(s)-->micro(+)micro(-))<5.8x10(-7) and B(B(0)(d)-->micro(+)micro(-))<1.5x10(-7) at 90% confidence level.

Abstract
In testing the hypothesis that interleukin-4 receptor alpha-subunit (IL-4R alpha)-coupled signaling mediates altered airway smooth muscle (ASM) responsiveness in the atopic sensitized state, isolated rabbit tracheal ASM segments were passively sensitized with immunoglobulin E (IgE) immune complexes, both in the absence and presence of an IL-4R alpha blocking antibody (anti-IL-4R alpha Ab). Relative to control ASM, IgE-sensitized tissues exhibited enhanced isometric constrictor responses to administered ACh and attenuated relaxation responses to isoproterenol. These proasthmatic-like effects were prevented in IgE-sensitized ASM that were pretreated with anti-IL-4R alpha Ab. In complementary experiments, IgE-sensitized cultured human ASM cells exhibited upregulated expression of IL-13 mRNA and protein, whereas IL-4 expression was undetected. Moreover, extended studies demonstrated that 1) exogenous IL-13 administration to naïve ASM elicited augmented contractility to ACh and impaired relaxation to isoproterenol, 2) these effects of IL-13 were prevented by pretreating the tissues with an IL-5 receptor blocking antibody, and 3) IL-13 administration induced upregulated mRNA expression and release of IL-5 protein from cultured ASM cells. Collectively, these findings provide new evidence demonstrating that the altered responsiveness of IgE-sensitized ASM is largely attributed to activation of an intrinsic Th2-type autocrine mechanism involving IL-13/IL-4R alpha-coupled release and action of IL-5 in the sensitized ASM itself.

Abstract
Neuromagnetic spectral distributions when silently viewing words and non-words were investigated using a 151-channel whole head MEG system. The data were analyzed with synthetic aperture magnetometry (SAM). The dominant changes of spectral power were identified in the parietal and occipital cortices in 15-30 Hz, 30-60 Hz and 60-125 Hz bands following both word and non-word stimulations. The changes in Broca's and Wernicke's areas were consistently observed in 60-125 Hz bands, mainly following word stimulation. The results indicated that the occipital and parietal cortices were most probably involved in visuospatial processing of words and non-words. The language areas, particularly Broca's and Wernickes's areas, might be involved in implicit word processing such as verbal searching and/or internal speech.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rhinovirus (RV), the principal pathogen responsible for the common cold, is importantly implicated in triggering attacks of asthma secondary to changes in airway responsiveness. OBJECTIVE Because the airway histopathologic features of RV infection are relatively modest, we tested the hypothesis that RV can directly elicit proasthmatic-like changes in airway smooth muscle (ASM) responsiveness independently of actual viral infection and its associated cytopathic effects. METHODS Isolated ASM tissues and cultured ASM cells were inoculated with either infectious or noninfectious (UV-irradiated) RV16 and RV2, the latter serotypes belonging to the "major" and "minor" groups of RV subtypes, respectively. ASM constrictor and relaxant responsiveness, G(i) protein expression, and proinflammatory cytokine release were subsequently compared under the different treatment conditions. RESULTS In contrast to RV2, which had no effect, RV16 inoculation elicited enhanced ASM contractility and impaired relaxation to cholinergic and beta-adrenergic agonists, respectively, in association with increased ASM membrane G(i) protein expression and induced release of the proinflammatory cytokines IL-5 and IL-1beta. These proasthmatic-like effects were also observed in ASM exposed to UV-irradiated RV16, wherein viral replication was completely inhibited. In contrast, pretreatment of ASM with a neutralizing antibody directed against ICAM-1, the host receptor for the "major" group of RVs, completely abrogated the proasthmatic effects of RV16. CONCLUSIONS The results demonstrate that (1) RV16 elicits proasthmatic changes in ASM responsiveness that can occur independently of actual viral infection of the ASM and (2) the effects of RV16 are attributed solely to binding of the virus to its host receptor (ICAM-1) on the ASM cell surface. Collectively, these findings support the notion that RV-induced exacerbation of wheezing in asthmatic individuals can occur even in the absence of any cytopathology associated with viral infection.

Abstract
To elucidate the role and mechanism of action of interleukin (IL)-10 in regulating airway smooth muscle (ASM) responsiveness in the atopic asthmatic state, isolated rabbit tracheal ASM segments were passively sensitized with serum from atopic asthmatic patients or nonatopic nonasthmatic (control) subjects in both the absence and presence of an anti-IL-10 receptor blocking antibody (Ab). Relative to control ASM, atopic asthmatic serum-sensitized tissues exhibited enhanced isometric constrictor responses to administered acetylcholine and attenuated the relaxation responses to isoproterenol. These proasthmatic effects were prevented in atopic asthmatic serum-sensitized ASM that was pretreated with anti-IL-10 receptor Ab. In complementary experiments, exposure of cultured human ASM cells to atopic asthmatic serum induced upregulated expression of IL-10 mRNA. Moreover, extended studies demonstrated that 1) exogenous IL-10 administration to naive ASM elicited augmented contractility to acetylcholine and impaired relaxation to isoproterenol, 2) these effects of IL-10 were prevented by pretreating the tissues with an IL-5 receptor Ab, and 3) IL-10 administration induced upregulated mRNA expression and release of IL-5 protein from cultured ASM cells. Collectively, these findings provide new evidence demonstrating that the altered responsiveness of atopic asthmatic serum-sensitized ASM is largely attributed to activation of an intrinsic T helper type 2-type autocrine mechanism involving IL-10-mediated release and the action of IL-5 in the sensitized ASM itself.

Abstract
To elucidate the mechanistic interplay between rhinovirus (RV) exposure and atopic sensitization in regulating airway smooth muscle (ASM) responsiveness, isolated rabbit ASM tissue and cultured human ASM cells were passively sensitized with sera from atopic asthmatic or nonatopic nonasthmatic (control) subjects in the absence and presence of inoculation with RV serotype 16. Relative to control subjects, atopic asthmatic serum-sensitized and RV-inoculated ASM exhibited significantly increased contractility to acetylcholine, impaired relaxation to isoproterenol, and enhanced release of the proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-1beta. These effects were potentiated in atopic asthmatic serum-sensitized ASM concomitantly inoculated with RV and inhibited by pretreating the tissues with monoclonal blocking antibodies against intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 (CD54), the host receptor for RV serotype 16, or lymphocyte function-associated antigen (LFA)-1 (CD11a/CD18), the endogenous counterreceptor for ICAM-1. Moreover, RV inoculation was found to potentiate the induction of mRNA and surface protein expression of FcepsilonRII (CD23), the low-affinity receptor for IgE, in atopic asthmatic serum-sensitized ASM. Collectively, these observations provide new evidence demonstrating that 1) RV exposure and atopic sensitization act cooperatively to potentiate induction of proasthmatic changes in ASM responsiveness in association with upregulated proinflammatory cytokine release and FcepsilonRII expression and 2) the effects of RV exposure and atopic sensitization are mediated by cooperative ICAM-1-coupled LFA-1 signaling in the ASM itself.

Abstract
Inter- and intrahemispheric somatosensory functions were evaluated in blinded tests of 11 children with partial and complete agenesis of the corpus callosum (age range 2 years 8 months to 11 years 9 months) and compared with those of age- and sex-matched control individuals both normally developing and with neurological impairment. Tests included uni- and bimanual measures of stereognosis, haptic visual discrimination, kinaesthesis, and texture matching. Children with callosal absence displayed significant difficulties with many somatosensory functions, but most deficits were no greater than those of the children who had neurological dysfunction and an intact corpus callosum. Children with callosal absence, however, had significantly greater difficulty with bimanual texture matching, seemingly because this task required refined spatial interpretation of somatosensory input. Response times for the individuals with callosal absence were significantly greater than those for control participants with neurological impairment on several tasks in which overall accuracy of performance among groups did not significantly differ. These findings suggest that children with agenesis of the corpus callosum may have less efficient and slower processing capacity for certain types of somatosensory information. Possible compensatory mechanisms are discussed.

Abstract
The airway responses to allergen exposure in allergic asthma are qualitatively similar to those elicited by specific viral respiratory pathogens, most notably rhinovirus (RV), suggesting that the altered airway responsiveness seen in allergic asthma and that elicited by viral respiratory tract infection may share a common underlying mechanism. To the extent that T helper cell type 2 (Th2) cytokines have been implicated in the pathogenesis of allergic asthma, this study examined the potential role(s) of Th2-type cytokines in mediating pro-asthmatic-like changes in airway smooth muscle (ASM) responsiveness after inoculation of naive ASM with human RV. Isolated rabbit ASM tissues and cultured human ASM cells were exposed to RV (serotype 16) for 24 h in the absence and presence of monoclonal blocking antibodies (MAbs) or antagonists directed against either the Th2-type cytokines interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-5, intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 (the endogenous host receptor for most RVs), or the pleiotropic proinflammatory cytokine IL-1beta. Relative to control (vehicle-treated) tissues, RV-exposed ASM exhibited significantly enhanced isometric contractility to acetylcholine and impaired relaxation to isoproterenol. These pro-asthmatic-like changes in ASM responsiveness were ablated by pretreating the RV-exposed tissues with either IL-5-receptor-alpha blocking antibody or human recombinant IL-1-receptor antagonist, whereas IL-4 neutralizing antibody had no effect. Extended studies further demonstrated that inoculation of ASM cells with RV elicited 1) an increased mRNA expression and release of IL-5 protein, which was inhibited in the presence of anti-ICAM-1 MAb, and 2) an enhanced release of IL-1beta protein, which was inhibited in the presence of IL-5 receptor-alpha antibody. Collectively, these observations provide new evidence demonstrating that RV-induced changes in ASM responsiveness are largely attributed to ICAM-1-dependent activation of a cooperative autocrine signaling mechanism involving upregulated IL-5-mediated release of IL-1beta by the RV-exposed ASM itself.

Abstract
Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) have been importantly implicated in the pathobiology of the airway responses in allergic asthma, including inflammatory cell recruitment into the lungs and altered bronchial responsiveness. To elucidate the mechanism of CAM-related mediation of altered airway responsiveness in the atopic asthmatic state, the expressions and actions of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and its counterreceptor ligand lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1; i.e., CD11a/CD18) were examined in isolated rabbit airway smooth muscle (ASM) tissues and cultured human ASM cells passively sensitized with sera from atopic asthmatic patients or nonatopic nonasthmatic (control) subjects. Relative to control tissues, the atopic asthmatic sensitized ASM exhibited significantly enhanced maximal contractility to acetylcholine and attenuated relaxation responses to isoproterenol. These proasthmatic changes in agonist responsiveness were ablated by pretreating the atopic sensitized tissues with a monoclonal blocking antibody (MAb) to either ICAM-1 or CD11a, whereas a MAb directed against the related beta(2)-integrin Mac-1 had no effect. Moreover, relative to control tissues, atopic asthmatic sensitized ASM cells displayed an autologously upregulated mRNA and cell surface expression of ICAM-1, whereas constitutive expression of CD11a was unaltered. Extended studies further demonstrated that 1) the enhanced expression and release of soluble ICAM-1 by atopic sensitized ASM cells was prevented when cells were pretreated with an interleukin (IL)-5-receptor-alpha blocking antibody and 2) administration of exogenous IL-5 to naive (nonsensitized) ASM cells induced a pronounced soluble ICAM-1 release from the cells. Collectively, these observations provide new evidence demonstrating that activation of the CAM counterreceptor ligands ICAM-1 and LFA-1, both of which are endogenously expressed in ASM cells, elicits autologously upregulated IL-5 release and associated changes in ICAM-1 expression and agonist responsiveness in atopic asthmatic sensitized ASM.

Abstract
PURPOSE To describe the CT and MR findings of primary malignant rhabdoid tumor (MRT) of the brain, which is a rare but very aggressive neoplasm in childhood. MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospectively, we evaluated the CT and MR findings of 5 patients of primary MRT of the brain with a review of clinical records. RESULTS The primary MRTs of the brain were large (n = 4) with a tendency to be associated with necrosis, hemorrhage (n = 2) and calcification (n = 2). Solid components of the tumor showed increased attenuation on precontrast CT scan and iso- or slightly hyper-signal intensity on T2-weighted images probably due to hypercellularity. Solid components of the tumor were also well enhanced on contrast-enhanced CT scan (n = 5) and MRI (n = 2). In 1 case with intratumoral bleeding, MR findings were variable on T1-weighted and T2-weighted images. Intracranial and intraspinal metastasis were found in 2 cases on preoperative MR studies. Follow-up CT and MR studies showed recurrence of the tumor and/or leptomeningeal metastasis in 3 cases. CONCLUSIONS Although CT and MR findings of primary MRT of the brain are nonspecific, a tendency toward large size, calcification and intratumoral bleeding may be attributed to CT and MR findings. The solid components of tumors could present hyperdense on precontrast CT scan and iso- or slightly hyper-signal intensity on T2-weighted MR image. Preoperative and follow-up MR studies are important to detect metastatic foci.

Abstract
Distribution of salicylic acid in human stratum corneum from treatment of six different formulations was assessed by quantitation of drug content in sequentially tape-stripped stratum corneum after a single 2-h dose was applied unoccluded to skin on the ventral forearm of four female subjects. The profile and total amounts of stratum corneum removed in 20 tape-strips varied among different types of formulations. With or without normalization by the total stratum corneum weights removed, the extent of drug delivery to the stratum corneum decreased in the following order: SA (5%) > > SAC (10%), Duofilm (16.7%) > TSSS (2%) > SAO (10%), Salic (2.5%), the percentage in parentheses indicating the salicylic acid concentration in each formulation. The greatest topical bioavailability was observed for the alcoholic solution containing glycerol (SA). The 10% collodion formulation (SAC) was found to deliver an amount of salicylic acid into the stratum corneum 2-fold greater than 10% ointment formulation (SAO). Use of absorption ointment (TSSS) also increased the uptake of salicylic acid into the stratum corneum in comparison with formulations based on simple ointment (SAO) and oil in water (o/w) cream (Salic). The partitioning of salicylic acid from collodion formulations (SAC and Duofilm) appeared to be concentration-independent. The results of this study indicate that topical bioavailability of salicylic acid in the stratum corneum varies substantially among different formulations.

Abstract
T-helper type 2 (Th2) cytokines have been implicated in the pathogenesis of the pulmonary inflammatory response and altered bronchial responsiveness in allergic asthma. To elucidate the mechanism of Th2-dependent mediation of altered airway responsiveness in the atopic asthmatic state, the expression and actions of specific cytokines were examined in isolated rabbit and human airway smooth muscle (ASM) tissues and cultured cells passively sensitized with sera from atopic asthmatic patients or nonatopic/nonasthmatic (control) subjects. Relative to control tissues, the atopic asthmatic sensitized ASM exhibited significantly enhanced maximal isometric contractility to acetylcholine and attenuated relaxation responses to isoproterenol. These proasthmatic changes in agonist responsiveness were ablated by pretreating the atopic sensitized tissues with either an IL-5 receptor blocking antibody (IL-5ra) or the human recombinant IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra), whereas an IL-4 neutralizing antibody had no effect. Moreover, relative to controls, atopic asthmatic sensitized ASM cells demonstrated an initial, early (after 3 hours of incubation) increased mRNA expression and protein release of IL-5. This was followed (after 6 hours of incubation) by an enhanced mRNA expression and release of IL-1beta protein, an effect that was inhibited in sensitized cells pretreated with IL-5ra. Extended studies demonstrated that naive ASM exposed to exogenously administered IL-5 exhibited an induced upregulated mRNA expression and protein release of IL-1beta associated with proasthmatic-like changes in ASM constrictor and relaxant responsiveness, and that these effects were ablated in tissues pretreated with IL-1ra. Taken together, these observations provide new evidence that (a) the Th2 cytokine IL-5 and the pleiotropic proinflammatory cytokine IL-1beta are endogenously released by atopic asthmatic sensitized ASM and mechanistically interact to mediate the proasthmatic perturbations in ASM responsiveness; and (b) the nature of this interaction is given by an initial endogenous release of IL-5, which then acts to induce the autologous release of IL-1beta by the sensitized ASM itself, resulting in its autocrine manifestation of the proasthmatic phenotype.

Abstract
We review the presentation, imaging findings and outcome in 18 children with cerebellar arteriovenous malformations (AVM). This group is of particular interest because of the reported poor outcome despite modern imaging and neurosurgical techniques. All children had CT and 15 underwent catheter angiography at presentation. Several of the children in the latter part of the study had MRI. Of the 18 children, 17 presented with a ruptured AVM producing intracranial haemorrhage. The remaining child presented with temporal lobe epilepsy and was shown to have temporal, vermian and cerebellar hemisphere AVM. This child had other stigmata of Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome. Three other children had pre-existing abnormalities of possible relevance. One had a vascular malformation of the cheek and mandible, one a documented chromosomal abnormality and another a midline cleft upper lip and palate. Six of the 17 children with a ruptured cerebellar AVM died within 7 days of the ictus. Vascular pathology other than an AVM was found in 10 of the 14 children with a ruptured cerebellar AVM who had angiography: 4 intranidal aneurysms, 5 venous aneurysms and 2 cases of venous outflow obstruction (one child having both an aneurysm and obstruction). The severity of clinical presentation was directly related to the size of the acute haematoma, which was a reasonable predictor of outcome.

Abstract
Localized scleroderma is distinct from the diffuse form of scleroderma and does not show Raynaud's phenomenon and visceral involvement. The imaging features in 23 patients ranging from 2 to 17 years of age (mean 11.1 years) were reviewed. Leg length discrepancy and muscle atrophy were the most common findings (five patients), with two patients also showing modelling deformity of the fibula. One patient with lower extremity involvement showed abnormal bone marrow signals on MR. Disabling joint contracture requiring orthopedic intervention was noted in one patient. In two patients with "en coup de sabre" facial deformity, CT and MR scans revealed intracranial calcifications and white matter abnormality in the ipsilateral frontal lobes, with one also showing migrational abnormality. In a third patient, CT revealed white matter abnormality in the ipsilateral parietal lobe. In one patient with progressive facial hemiatrophy, CT and MR scans showed the underlying hypoplastic left maxillary antrum and cheek. Imaging studies of areas of clinical concern revealed positive findings in half our patients.

Abstract
We reviewed 10 patients (5 males, 5 females) with mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes. The age of symptom onset ranged from 3 months to 12 years. All had lactic acidosis, multiple stroke-like events with secondary neurological deficits, radiological changes of progressive brain infarction, and muscle biopsy showing ragged-red fibers. In patients with earlier onset of symptoms (< 2 yr), involvement tended to be more diffuse, with failure to thrive and early onset of delayed development. Patients whose symptoms appeared later tended to have focal neurological deficits with migraine-like headache, and a rate of cognitive regression reflecting the rapidity of disease progression. Radiological changes included multiple areas of infarction with initial predilection for parietal occipital areas, progressing to generalized atrophy. Pathological findings in muscle biopsies included type 1 fiber predominance, ragged-red fibers, increased intermyofibrillar lipid deposition, and abnormal mitochondria. Four patients showed mitochondrial DNA tRNA mutation at position 3,243. No difference was noted in clinical, radiological, or pathological findings in patients with and without this mutation, suggesting that multiple sites of point mutation may give rise to mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes.

Abstract
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disease is uncommon in children but frequently occurs in juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA). Involvement is often asymptomatic; however, it can lead to growth disturbances and facial deformity. Thirty TMJs in 15 children (11 girls and 4 boys aged 3.5-18 years) with JRA were evaluated clinically and by MRI. Plain films were reviewed when available. Magnetic resonance imaging parameters included T1-weighted and in some cases T2-weighted or gradient recall echo sequences. We assessed condylar configuration, glenoid fossa changes, presence of erosions, disk abnormality, range of motion, and presence of joint effusions or pannus. Abnormalities included cortical erosions (n = 19), disk thinning (n = 18), and perforation (n = 2). Reduction of joint movement (n = 20), joint locking (n = 3), and pannus/effusions (n = 5) were also found. Magnetic resonance imaging is a useful technique for the detection of TMJ involvement in JRA. Early detection and therapeutic intervention may lessen or prevent subsequent deformities.
