Abstract
The excited states of unstable ^{20}O were investigated via γ-ray spectroscopy following the ^{19}O(d,p)^{20}O reaction at 8 AMeV. By exploiting the Doppler shift attenuation method, the lifetimes of the 2_{2}^{+} and 3_{1}^{+} states were firmly established. From the γ-ray branching and E2/M1 mixing ratios for transitions deexciting the 2_{2}^{+} and 3_{1}^{+} states, the B(E2) and B(M1) were determined. Various chiral effective field theory Hamiltonians, describing the nuclear properties beyond ground states, along with a standard USDB interaction, were compared with the experimentally obtained data. Such a comparison for a large set of γ-ray transition probabilities with the valence space in medium similarity renormalization group ab initio calculations was performed for the first time in a nucleus far from stability. It was shown that the ab initio approaches using chiral effective field theory forces are challenged by detailed high-precision spectroscopic properties of nuclei. The reduced transition probabilities were found to be a very constraining test of the performance of the ab initio models.

Abstract
Muonic atom spectroscopy-the measurement of the x rays emitted during the formation process of a muonic atom-has a long standing history in probing the shape and size of nuclei. In fact, almost all stable elements have been subject to muonic atom spectroscopy measurements and the absolute charge radii extracted from these measurements typically offer the highest accuracy available. However, so far only targets of at least a few hundred milligram could be used as it required to stop a muon beam directly in the target to form the muonic atom. We have developed a new method relying on repeated transfer reactions taking place inside a 100 bar hydrogen gas cell with an admixture of 0.25% deuterium that allows us to drastically reduce the amount of target material needed while still offering an adequate efficiency. Detailed simulations of the transfer reactions match the measured data, suggesting good understanding of the processes taking place inside the gas mixture. As a proof of principle we demonstrate the method with a measurement of the 2p-1s muonic x rays from a 5 μ g gold target.

Abstract
The reduced transition probabilities for the 4_{1}^{+}→2_{1}^{+} and 2_{1}^{+}→0_{1}^{+} transitions in ^{92}Mo and ^{94}Ru and for the 4_{1}^{+}→2_{1}^{+} and 6_{1}^{+}→4_{1}^{+} transitions in ^{90}Zr have been determined in this experiment making use of a multinucleon transfer reaction. These results have been interpreted on the basis of realistic shell-model calculations in the f_{5/2}, p_{3/2}, p_{1/2}, and g_{9/2} proton valence space. Only the combination of extensive lifetime information and large scale shell-model calculations allowed the extent of the seniority conservation in the N=50 g_{9/2} orbital to be understood. The conclusion is that seniority is largely conserved in the first πg_{9/2} orbital.

Abstract
Cooperation is a strategy that has been adopted by groups of organisms to execute complex tasks more efficiently than single entities. Cooperation increases the robustness and flexibility of the working groups and permits sharing of the workload among individuals. However, the utilization of this strategy in artificial systems at the molecular level, which could enable substantial advances in microrobotics and nanotechnology, remains highly challenging. Here, we demonstrate molecular transportation through the cooperative action of a large number of artificial molecular machines, photoresponsive DNA-conjugated microtubules driven by kinesin motor proteins. Mechanical communication via conjugated photoresponsive DNA enables these microtubules to organize into groups upon photoirradiation. The groups of transporters load and transport cargo, and cargo unloading is achieved by dissociating the groups into single microtubules. The group formation permits the loading and transport of cargoes with larger sizes and in larger numbers over long distances compared with single transporters. We also demonstrate that cargo can be collected at user-determined locations defined by ultraviolet light exposure. This work demonstrates cooperative task performance by molecular machines, which will help to construct molecular robots with advanced functionalities in the future.

Abstract
The low-lying energy spectrum of the extremely neutron-deficient self-conjugate (N=Z) nuclide _{44}^{88}Ru_{44} has been measured using the combination of the Advanced Gamma Tracking Array (AGATA) spectrometer, the NEDA and Neutron Wall neutron detector arrays, and the DIAMANT charged particle detector array. Excited states in ^{88}Ru were populated via the ^{54}Fe(^{36}Ar,2nγ)^{88}Ru^{*} fusion-evaporation reaction at the Grand Accélérateur National d'Ions Lourds (GANIL) accelerator complex. The observed γ-ray cascade is assigned to ^{88}Ru using clean prompt γ-γ-2-neutron coincidences in anticoincidence with the detection of charged particles, confirming and extending the previously assigned sequence of low-lying excited states. It is consistent with a moderately deformed rotating system exhibiting a band crossing at a rotational frequency that is significantly higher than standard theoretical predictions with isovector pairing, as well as observations in neighboring N>Z nuclides. The direct observation of such a "delayed" rotational alignment in a deformed N=Z nucleus is in agreement with theoretical predictions related to the presence of strong isoscalar neutron-proton pair correlations.

Abstract
Lifetime measurements of excited states of the light N=52 isotones ^{88}Kr, ^{86}Se, and ^{84}Ge have been performed, using the recoil distance Doppler shift method and VAMOS and AGATA spectrometers for particle identification and gamma spectroscopy, respectively. The reduced electric quadrupole transition probabilities B(E2;2^{+}→0^{+}) and B(E2;4^{+}→2^{+}) were obtained for the first time for the hard-to-reach ^{84}Ge. While the B(E2;2^{+}→0^{+}) values of ^{88}Kr, ^{86}Se saturate the maximum quadrupole collectivity offered by the natural valence (3s, 2d, 1g_{7/2}, 1h_{11/2}) space of an inert ^{78}Ni core, the value obtained for ^{84}Ge largely exceeds it, suggesting that shape coexistence phenomena, previously reported at N≲49, extend beyond N=50. The onset of collectivity at Z=32 is understood as due to a pseudo-SU(3) organization of the proton single-particle sequence reflecting a clear manifestation of pseudospin symmetry. It is realized that the latter provides actually reliable guidance for understanding the observed proton and neutron single particle structure in the whole medium-mass region, from Ni to Sn, pointing towards the important role of the isovector-vector ρ field in shell-structure evolution.

Abstract
Precise spectroscopic information on the fast neutron induced fission of the 238U(n,f) reaction was recently gained using a new technique which involved coupling of the Miniball high resolution y-ray spectrometer and the LICORNE directional neutron source. The experiment allowed measurement of the isotopic fission yields for around 40 even-even nuclei at an incident neutron energy of around 2 MeV where yield data are very sparse. In addition spectroscopic information on very neutron-rich fission products was obtained. Results were compared to models, both the JEFF-3.1.1 data base and the GEF code, and large discrepancies for the S1 fission mode in the Sn/Mo isotope pair were discovered. This suggests that current models are overestimating the role played by spherical shell effects in fast neutron induced fission. In late 2017 and 2018 the nu-ball hybrid spectrometer will be constructed at the IPN Orsay to perform further experimental investigations with directional neutrons coupled to a powerful hybrid Ge/LaBr3 detector array. This will open up new possibilities for measurements of fission yields for fast-neutron-induced fission using the spectroscopic technique and will be complimentary to other methods being developed.

Abstract
Biological systems have evolved to harness non-equilibrium processes from the molecular to the macro scale. It is currently a grand challenge of chemistry, materials science, and engineering to understand and mimic biological systems that have the ability to autonomously sense stimuli, process these inputs, and respond by performing mechanical work. New chemical systems are responding to the challenge and form the basis for future responsive, adaptive, and active materials. In this article, we describe a particular biochemical-biomechanical network based on the microtubule cytoskeletal filament - itself a non-equilibrium chemical system. We trace the non-equilibrium aspects of the system from molecules to networks and describe how the cell uses this system to perform active work in essential processes. Finally, we discuss how microtubule-based engineered systems can serve as testbeds for autonomous chemical robots composed of biological and synthetic components.

Abstract
Prompt γ-ray spectroscopy of the neutron-rich ^{96}Kr, produced in transfer- and fusion-induced fission reactions, has been performed using the combination of the Advanced Gamma Tracking Array and the VAMOS++ spectrometer. A second excited state, assigned to J^{π}=4^{+}, is observed for the first time, and a previously reported level energy of the first 2^{+} excited state is confirmed. The measured energy ratio R_{4/2}=E(4^{+})/E(2^{+})=2.12(1) indicates that this nucleus does not show a well-developed collectivity contrary to that seen in heavier N=60 isotones. This new measurement highlights an abrupt transition of the degree of collectivity as a function of the proton number at Z=36, of similar amplitude to that observed at N=60 at higher Z values. A possible reason for this abrupt transition could be related to the insufficient proton excitations in the g_{9/2}, d_{5/2}, and s_{1/2} orbitals to generate strong quadrupole correlations or to the coexistence of competing different shapes. An unexpected continuous decrease of R_{4/2} as a function of the neutron number up to N=60 is also evidenced. This measurement establishes the Kr isotopic chain as the low-Z boundary of the island of deformation for N=60 isotones. A comparison with available theoretical predictions using different beyond mean-field approaches shows that these models fail to reproduce the abrupt transitions at N=60 and Z=36.

Abstract
The ^{54}Fe nucleus was populated from a ^{56}Fe beam impinging on a Be target with an energy of E/A=500 MeV. The internal decay via γ-ray emission of the 10^{+} metastable state was observed. As the structure of this isomeric state has to involve at least four unpaired nucleons, it cannot be populated in a simple two-neutron removal reaction from the ^{56}Fe ground state. The isomeric state was produced in the low-momentum (-energy) tail of the parallel momentum (energy) distribution of ^{54}Fe, suggesting that it was populated via the decay of the Δ^{0} resonance into a proton. This process allows the population of four-nucleon states, such as the observed isomer. Therefore, it is concluded that the observation of this 10^{+} metastable state in ^{54}Fe is a consequence of the quark structure of the nucleons.

Abstract
Shape parameters of a weakly deformed ground-state band and highly deformed slightly triaxial sideband in ^{42}Ca were determined from E2 matrix elements measured in the first low-energy Coulomb excitation experiment performed with AGATA. The picture of two coexisting structures is well reproduced by new state-of-the-art large-scale shell model and beyond-mean-field calculations. Experimental evidence for superdeformation of the band built on 0_{2}^{+} has been obtained and the role of triaxiality in the A∼40 mass region is discussed. Furthermore, the potential of Coulomb excitation as a tool to study superdeformation has been demonstrated for the first time.

Abstract
Molecular motor-driven self-assembly has been an active area of soft matter research for the past decade. Because molecular motors transform chemical energy into mechanical work, systems which employ molecular motors to drive self-assembly processes are able to overcome kinetic and thermodynamic limits on assembly time, size, complexity, and structure. Here, we review the progress in elucidating and demonstrating the rules and capabilities of motor-driven active self-assembly. We focus on the types of structures created and the degree of control realized over these structures, and discuss the next steps necessary to achieve the full potential of this assembly mode which complements robotic manipulation and passive self-assembly.

Abstract
Neutron-rich {96,98}Sr isotopes have been investigated by safe Coulomb excitation of radioactive beams at the REX-ISOLDE facility. Reduced transition probabilities and spectroscopic quadrupole moments have been extracted from the differential Coulomb excitation cross sections. These results allow, for the first time, the drawing of definite conclusions about the shape coexistence of highly deformed prolate and spherical configurations. In particular, a very small mixing between the coexisting states is observed, contrary to other mass regions where strong mixing is present. Experimental results have been compared to beyond-mean-field calculations using the Gogny D1S interaction in a five-dimensional collective Hamiltonian formalism, which reproduce the shape change at N=60.

Abstract
The isospin mixing was deduced in the compound nucleus ^{80}Zr at an excitation energy of E^{*}=54 MeV from the γ decay of the giant dipole resonance. The reaction ^{40}Ca+^{40}Ca at E_{beam}=136 MeV was used to form the compound nucleus in the isospin I=0 channel, while the reaction ^{37}Cl+^{44}Ca at E_{beam}=95 MeV was used as the reference reaction. The γ rays were detected with the AGATA demonstrator array coupled with LaBr_{3}:Ce detectors. The temperature dependence of the isospin mixing was obtained and the zero-temperature value deduced. The isospin-symmetry-breaking correction δ_{C} used for the Fermi superallowed transitions was extracted and found to be consistent with β-decay data.

Abstract
Active self-assembly, in which non-thermal energy is consumed by the system to put together building blocks, allows the creation of non-equilibrium structures and active materials. Microtubule spools assembled in gliding assays are one example of such non-equilibrium structures, capable of storing bending energies on the order of 10(5) kT. Although these structures arise spontaneously in experiments, the origin of microtubule spooling has long been debated. Here, using a stepwise kinesin gradient, we demonstrate that spool assembly can be controlled by the surface density of kinesin motors, showing that pinning of microtubules due to dead motors plays a dominant role in spool initiation.

Abstract
Coulomb-excitation experiments to study electromagnetic properties of radioactive even-even Hg isotopes were performed with 2.85 MeV/nucleon mercury beams from REX-ISOLDE. Magnitudes and relative signs of the reduced E2 matrix elements that couple the ground state and low-lying excited states in Hg182-188 were extracted. Information on the deformation of the ground and the first excited 0+ states was deduced using the quadrupole sum rules approach. Results show that the ground state is slightly deformed and of oblate nature, while a larger deformation for the excited 0+ state was noted in Hg182,184. The results are compared to beyond mean field and interacting-boson based models and interpreted within a two-state mixing model. Partial agreement with the model calculations was obtained. The presence of two different structures in the light even-mass mercury isotopes that coexist at low excitation energy is firmly established.

Abstract
The neutron-rich nuclei 94,96Kr were studied via projectile Coulomb excitation at the REX-ISOLDE facility at CERN. Level energies of the first excited 2(+) states and their absolute E2 transition strengths to the ground state are determined and discussed in the context of the E(2(1)(+)) and B(E2;2(1)(+)→0(1)(+)) systematics of the krypton chain. Contrary to previously published results no sudden onset of deformation is observed. This experimental result is supported by a new proton-neutron interacting boson model calculation based on the constrained Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov approach using the microscopic Gogny-D1M energy density functional.

Abstract
Within the twelve female first division soccer teams 131 players of all 254 were injured during the season 2000/01. A total of 216 injuries was found, among them 74 minor (less than a week absence from sport), 84 moderate (max. 6 weeks) and 58 major injuries (more than 6 weeks). The average time to recover after an injury was 26.5 days. Within 116 joint injuries 16 sprains and 22 ligamental ruptures of the ankle, 16 meniscal lesions and 11 ACL ruptures could be found. Women soccer shows - compared to men - a higher selective risk of severe injuries, especially to the ankle joint and cruciate ligament. The accumulation of major injuries at the beginning of the season might be due to a too great demand during the preparation. There seems to be a need of improvement of the coordinative skills and to establish proprioceptive joint exercises as a relevant part of training.

Abstract
We report on the first radioactive beam experiment performed at the recently commissioned REX-ISOLDE facility at CERN in conjunction with the highly efficient gamma spectrometer MINIBALL. Using 30Mg ions accelerated to an energy of 2.25 MeV/u together with a thin (nat)Ni target, Coulomb excitation of the first excited 2+ states of the projectile and target nuclei well below the Coulomb barrier was observed. From the measured relative deexcitation gamma-ray yields the B(E2;0(+)gs-->2(+)1) value of 30Mg was determined to be 241(31)e2 fm4. Our result is lower than values obtained at projectile fragmentation facilities using the intermediate-energy Coulomb excitation method, and confirms the theoretical conjecture that the neutron-rich magnesium isotope 30Mg resides outside the "island of inversion."

Abstract
From 1994 till 1996 there were examined 219 dancers (male and female) at 8 theatres because of typical injuries and damages. It was elevated an exactly anamnese and physical examination with regard to orthopedic peculiarity. The determined dates were documented on a standardized form and analyzed separately to the respective part of the body. It is an examination with the biggest figures in Europe. The destination is to avoid damages because of enlightenment and timely recognize of reasons. Incorrect training and not recognizing individual anatomical faults could make this job dangerous and emphasize these typical injuries and damages.

Abstract
PURPOSE To report the outcome of a prospective, randomized, open multicenter trial comparing (1) the effects of local thrombolysis with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) or urokinase (UK) and (2) 2 administration techniques. METHODS Two hundred thirty-four patients with thromboembolic occlusions in 223 native femoral or popliteal arteries (95%) and 11 bypass grafts (5%) were randomized to rtPA (n = 124) or UK (n = 110) administered either through an endhole catheter (Hess technique) in 81 patients or a microporous balloon catheter (Schneider technique) in 153 patients. When lysis was incomplete, additional catheter interventions were applied to achieve patency. Results were analyzed by fluoroscopy during intervention and by angiography evaluated by independent experts blinded to the methods applied. RESULTS The only significant difference between rtPA and UK was found at the end of lysis using the Hess technique. Complete reperfusion (TIMI grade 3) was produced in 60% of patients by rtPA versus 37% by UK (p = 0.045). By both techniques TIMI grade 3 was achieved in 62% with rtPA and in 50% with UK (p = 0.18). Independent of delivery technique, thrombolytic agent, or additional catheter interventions, TIMI grade 3 was achieved in 81% and angiographic patency in 88%. Primary patency at 6 months was 66%, which was increased by secondary interventions to 75%. Major amputations were performed in 6%, all in patients with initial Fontaine stage III/IV ischemia. CONCLUSIONS With local thrombolysis alone, rtPA appears to be more effective than UK; however, additional catheter interventions further improved patency, abolishing the difference between the lytic agents.

Abstract
This open-label, two-way crossover study was undertaken to determine whether the enteric formulation of didanosine influences the pharmacokinetics of itraconazole or fluconazole, two agents frequently used to treat fungal infections that occur with HIV infection, and whose bioavailability may be influenced by changes in gastric pH. Healthy subjects were randomized to Treatment A (200-mg itraconazole or 200-mg fluconazole) or Treatment B (same dose of itraconazole or fluconazole with 400 mg of didanosine as an encapsulated, enteric-coated bead formulation). In the itraconazole study, a lack of interaction was concluded if the 90% confidence interval (CI) of the ratio of the geometric means of log-transformed C(max) and AUC(0-T) values of itraconazole and hydroxyitraconazole, the active metabolite of itraconazole, were contained entirely between 0.75 and 1.33. In the fluconazole study, the equivalence interval for C(max) and AUC(0-T) was 0.80-1.25. The data showed that for itraconazole the point estimate and 90% CI of the ratios of C(max) and AUC(0-T) values were 0.98 (0.79, 1.20) and 0.88 (0.71, 1.09), respectively; for hydroxyitraconazole the respective values were 0.91 (0.76, 1.08) and 0.85 (0.68, 1.06). In the fluconazole study, the point estimate and 90% CI of the ratios of C(max) and AUC(0-T) values were 0.98 (0.93, 1.03) and 1.01 (0.99, 1.03), respectively. The T(max) for itraconazole, hydroxyitraconazole, and fluconazole were similar between treatments. Both studies indicated a lack of clinically significant interactions of the didanosine formulation with itraconazole or fluconazole. These results showed that the encapsulated, enteric-coated bead formulation of didanosine can be concomitantly administered with drugs, such as the azole antifungal agents, whose bioavailability may be influenced by interaction with antacids.

Abstract
Active transport in cells, utilizing molecular motors like kinesin and myosin, provides the inspiration for the integration of active transport into synthetic devices. Hybrid devices, employing motor proteins in a synthetic environment, are the first prototypes of molecular shuttles. Here the basic characteristics of motor proteins are discussed from an engineering point of view, and the experiments aimed at incorporating motor proteins, such as myosins and kinesins, into devices are reviewed. The key problems for the construction of a molecular shuttle are: guiding the direction of motion, controlling the speed, and loading and unloading of cargo. Various techniques, relying on surface topography and chemistry as well as flow fields and electric fields, have been developed to guide the movement of molecular shuttles on surfaces. The control of ATP concentration, acting as a fuel supply, can serve as a means to control the speed of movement. The loading process requires the coupling of cargo to the shuttle, ideally by a strong and specific link. Applications of molecular shuttles can be envisioned, e.g. in the field of nano-electro-mechanical systems (NEMS), where scaling laws favor active transport over fluid flow, and in the bottom-up assembly of novel materials.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The extracardiac Fontan procedure, as compared with classic atriopulmonary connections, may have the potential for optimizing ventricular and pulmonary vascular function by maximizing the laminar flow principle, by the avoidance of intra-atrial suture lines and cardiac manipulation, and by minimizing cardiopulmonary bypass time. In this study the clinical results of this procedure are assessed. METHODS From January 1990 until January 1997, 45 patients (33 males and 12 females) with a median age of 4.0 years (range 2.7-38 years) underwent an extracardiac Fontan procedure for univentricular physiology. The underlying diagnoses included tricuspid atresia (n=19), double-inlet left ventricle (n=11), and complex anomalies (n=15). Forty patients (89%) were in sinus rhythm. The median ventricular ejection fraction was 60%. In 37 patients (82%) the procedure was staged. RESULTS Median cardiopulmonary bypass time was 72 min, with a decrease to a median time of 24 min in the last ten patients. Aortic cross-clamping was avoided in 33 patients (73%). The intraoperative Fontan pressure and transpulmonary gradient were low: 13.6+/-3.2 and 8.5+/-3.9 mmHg, respectively. Transient supraventricular tachyarrhythmias were observed in six patients (13%). There was no early or late mortality. At a median follow-up of 64 months (range 26-105 months), 39 patients (87%) were in NYHA class I, four (9%) were in NYHA class II, and two (4%) were in class III. Forty patients (89%) remained in sinus rhythm. The median ventricular ejection fraction was 59%. The median arterial oxygen saturation raised from 82% preoperatively to 97%. Functional class (P=0.02), maintenance of sinus rhythm (P=0.04), and preservation of ventricular function (P=0.05) was superior in patients who were appropriately staged. None of the patients had atrial thrombus, chronic pleural effusions, or protein losing enteropathy. CONCLUSIONS In the majority of patients, the extracardiac Fontan procedure, when performed as a staged procedure, provides excellent early and midterm results in terms of quality of life, maintenance of sinus rhythm, and preservation of ventricular function.

Abstract
We have compared the efficiency of central nervous system and peripheral antigen-presenting cells (APC) in T cell priming and restimulation. OVA peptide 323 - 339-dependent activation of DO11.10 TCR-transgenic naive CD4+ and polarized Th1 or Th2 cells was assessed in the presence of microglia and astrocytes from the neonatal mouse brain as well as dendritic cells (DC) and B cells purified from adult mouse lymph nodes. DC were the most efficient in inducing naive T cell proliferation, IL-2 secretion and differentiation into Th1 cells, followed by IFN-gamma-preactivated microglia, large and small B cells. Astrocytes failed to activate naive T cells. IFN-gamma-pretreated microglia were as efficient as DC in the restimulation of Th1 cells, whereas IFN-gamma-pretreated astrocytes, large and small B cells were much less efficient. Conversely, Th2 cells were efficiently restimulated by all the APC types examined. During T cell priming, DC secreted more IL-12 than microglia but similar amounts of IL-12 were secreted by the two cell types upon interaction with Th1 cells. The hierarchy of APC established in this study indicates that DC and microglia are the most efficient in the stimulation of naive CD4(+) T cells and in the restimulation of Th1 cells, suggesting that activated microglia may effectively contribute to Th1 responses leading to central nervous system inflammation and tissue damage. These potentially pathogenic responses could be counteracted by the high efficiency of astrocytes as well as microglia in restimulating Th2 cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Repair of coarctation of the aorta with hypoplasia and elongation of the proximal aortic arch is a technically demanding procedure with a substantial rate of recurrent stenosis at the coarctation repair site. In addition, a high incidence of hypertension has been reported in patients who underwent repair beyond infancy. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between January 1991 and June 1997, 52 patients (34 neonates and 18 infants with a median age of 37 days; range 2 days to 8 months) with a mean peak systolic upper to lower extremity resting gradient of 33.5 +/- 18.9 mmHg underwent repair of aortic coarctation. The echocardiographically measured median diameter of the aortic arch immediately distal to the innominate artery was 5.4 mm (range 4.0 to 8.1 mm). Eight patients (15%) were considered hypertensive. In 41 patients, through a left thoracotomy, an end-to-side anastomosis was constructed between the descending aorta and the undersurface of the proximal aortic arch. In 12 of these patients (who all had a hypoplastic and elongated aortic arch) this procedure was preceded by the construction of an extended side-to-side left carotid-subclavian arterioplasty. The remaining 11 patients, all with hypoplasia of the aortic arch, had concomitant complete repair of intracardiac anomalies through a median sternotomy. In 8 of these patients, in addition to anastomosis of the descending aorta to the undersurface of the proximal aortic arch, the ascending aorta and aortic arch were augmented with a pulmonary homograft patch. RESULTS One neonate with associated Shone's syndrome died (2%) on the first postoperative day. There was no late mortality. Early postoperative complications included recurrent laryngeal nerve injury in 1 patient and prolonged chest tube drainage in 4 patients. At a median follow-up of 55 months (range 15 to 92 months), only 3 patients (5. 7%) developed a recurrent stenosis at the coarctation repair site. The remaining 48 patients are free of recurrent stenosis by echocardiography and clinical examination. None of the patients had systemic hypertension. CONCLUSIONS 1. Coarctation repair consisting of resection of all ductal tissue with end-to-side anastomosis of the descending aorta to the undersurface of the (proximal) aortic arch, if necessary combined with a side-to side left carotid-subclavian arterioplasty, may lead to excellent results. 2. This technique can be applied with low mortality and morbidity via a left thoracotomy if the proximal aortic arch is at least 5 mm in diameter. 3. In view of the low mortality, the low incidence of restenosis at the coarctation repair site, and the absence of substantial morbidity including the development of hypertension, we advocate repair of aortic coarctation at neonatal age or in early infancy to avoid the detrimental sequelae of delayed repair of coarctation, in particular hypertension.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Obstruction of the atriopulmonary anastomosis or the lateral atrial tunnel cavopulmonary anastomosis in the Fontan circulation for univentricular physiology may result in dilation of the right atrium or the right atrial free wall that is incorporated in the lateral atrial tunnel, respectively. Secondary detrimental sequelae may consist of supraventricular dysrhythmias, thromboembolism, right pulmonary vein compression, pleural effusions, and protein-losing enteropathy. Conversion of these Fontan connections to an extracardiac conduit cavopulmonary anastomosis may improve central systemic venous flow patterns and provide clinical improvement in these patients. METHODS Eighteen patients (7-40 years old) with atriopulmonary anastomosis (n = 15) or obstructed lateral atrial tunnel cavopulmonary anastomosis (n = 3) presented at 5.7 +/- 3.9 years with moderate to severe right atrial dilation (n = 15), Fontan pathway obstruction (n = 12), atrial dysrhythmia (n = 13), pleural effusion (n = 8), right atrial thrombus (n = 3), right pulmonary vein compression (n = 3), and protein-losing enteropathy (n = 3). All patients underwent conversion to an extracardiac conduit cavopulmonary anastomosis. RESULTS Two of the three patients with protein-losing enteropathy died (2/18; 11%) on the 30th and 52nd postoperative days. At a mean follow-up of 19 months, the remaining 16 patients had marked (n = 11) or moderate (n = 5) clinical improvement. The SaO2 improved from 90.7 +/- 5.3% to 96.0 +/- 4.1%. None of the patients had obstruction in the systemic venous pathway. In the 13 surviving patients with previous atriopulmonary anastomosis there was a drastic reduction in right atrial size. Four of 13 patients with atrial dysrhythmias converted to sinus rhythm. The right pulmonary vein compression as present in three patients resolved after conversion. Pleural effusions disappeared in four patients. CONCLUSIONS Conversion to an extracardiac cavopulmonary connection may lead to clinical improvement in patients with atriopulmonary or lateral atrial tunnel Fontan connection associated with specific target conditions such as obstruction, pulmonary vein compression, right atrial enlargement, atrial dysrhythmia, or atrial thrombus. The conversion operation should not be unduly delayed to prevent irreversible deterioration of clinical status with chronic rhythm disturbances or protein-losing enteropathy. The benefit of the conversion operation is questionable in patients with poor clinical condition and protein-losing enteropathy.

Abstract
In three patients, coronary artery fistulas originating from a conal branch of the mid-segment of the left anterior descending coronary artery (n = 2) and right coronary artery (n = 1) with drainage into the right atrium (n = 2) and right ventricle (n = 1) were successfully closed without the use of cardiopulmonary bypass. The use of a coronary artery stabilizer greatly facilitated the operation by immobilization of the fistula, its supplying coronary artery, and the regional myocardium. In selected patients, this technique allows secure closure of the fistula and meticulous reconstruction of the coronary artery without the use of cardiopulmonary bypass.

Abstract
The POU transcription factor Oct-4 is expressed specifically in the germ line, pluripotent cells of the pregastrulation embryo and stem cell lines derived from the early embryo. Osteopontin (OPN) is a protein secreted by cells of the preimplantation embryo and contains a GRGDS motif that can bind to specific integrin subtypes and modulate cell adhesion/migration. We show that Oct-4 and OPN are coexpressed in the preimplantation mouse embryo and during differentiation of embryonal cell lines. Immunoprecipitation of the first intron of OPN (i-opn) from covalently fixed chromatin of embryonal stem cells by Oct-4-specific antibodies indicates that Oct-4 binds to this fragment in vivo. The i-opn fragment functions as an enhancer in cell lines that resemble cells of the preimplantation embryo. Furthermore, it contains a novel palindromic Oct factor recognition element (PORE) that is composed of an inverted pair of homeodomain-binding sites separated by exactly 5 bp (ATTTG +5 CAAAT). POU proteins can homo- and heterodimerize on the PORE in a configuration that has not been described previously. Strong transcriptional activation of the OPN element requires an intact PORE. In contrast, the canonical octamer overlapping with the downstream half of the PORE is not essential. Sox-2 is a transcription factor that contains an HMG box and is coexpressed with Oct-4 in the early mouse embryo. Sox-2 represses Oct-4 mediated activation of i-opn by way of a canonical Sox element that is located close to the PORE. Repression depends on a carboxy-terminal region of Sox-2 that is outside of the HMG box. Expression, DNA binding, and transactivation data are consistent with the hypothesis that OPN expression is regulated by Oct-4 and Sox-2 in preimplantation development.

Abstract
A study was started a) to assess the incidence self-poisoning in pre-school children and b) to evaluate the impact of an emergency set containing activated carbon and an antifoam. Cooperation was established with the regional legal sickness funds, the regional physician association, and two pharmaceutical companies. Incidence and extent of unintentional self-poisoning among pre-school children are to be determined. The impact of an emergency specimen given to parents of one year old children is evaluated. Families with children aged 1 to 4 year living in boroughs of Berlin are the population at risk. Study period for measuring the incidence is from January 1995 to June 1998. Cases are all accidents of poison ingestion by children of the at-risk-population. Intervention was performed between July 1995 and June 1996. The sets were handed out to parents of children born in 1994. 85% of the selected parents could be interviewed. It was studied whether the behaviour of parents in accidents of poisoning differed between those given an emergency set compared to those who had none. Data were mainly collected by telephone interviews. In this paper the theoretical aspects of the psychological effect of the intervention are discussed.

Abstract
A destructive joint disease can be induced in susceptible DBA/1 mice by immunization with type II collagen emulsified with oil and either killed Mycobacterium tuberculosis or IL-12 as adjuvant. Cellular and humoral anti-collagen immune mechanisms appear to be involved in the pathogenesis of arthritis. We have characterized the adjuvant effect or IL-12 in more detail and addressed the question whether mycobacteria might act via the induction of endogenous IL-12. Injections of IL-12 into collagen-immunized DBA/1 mice promoted the development of IFN-gamma-producing CD4+ T cells and strongly upregulated the production of complement-fixing IgG2a and IgG2b antibodies resulting in severe arthritis. Neutralization of IFN-gamma in vivo largely inhibited the increase in antibody synthesis and prevented joint disease in IL-12-treated mice. However, collagen-specific IFN-gamma synthesis by T cells was further enhanced in these animals. Furthermore, IL-12 treatment promoted the development of IFN-gamma-producing T cells but failed to enhance antibody synthesis and to induce arthritis in C57BL/6 or BALB/c mice immunized with collagen in oil. These results indicate that the induction (by IL-12) of a strong collagen-specific T-cell response alone is not sufficient to trigger arthritis. Attempts to show a role for endogenous IL-12 in DBA/1 mice immunized with collagen with mycobacteria as adjuvant gave no reliable results. Whereas anti-IL-12 treatment delayed the onset and ameliorated the disease in some experiments, it failed to do so in other experiments, or, control reagents also had some effect. A slight inhibition of collagen-specific IgG2a synthesis was observed in most experiments in the sera of anti-IL-12-treated mice. Taken together, the results show that exogenous IL-12 can promote arthritis via its direct effect on T cells and its effect on antibody production, which is at least in part IFN-gamma-dependent. On the other hand, whether or not endogenous IL-12 is involved in the adjuvant effect of mycobacteria needs further clarification.

Abstract
DBA/1 (H-2q) and C57BL/6 (H-2b) mice develop an intermediate immune responses when immunized with chicken type II collagen (CII) emulsified with incomplete Freund's adjuvant (IFA). Only a few animals develop a mild form of arthritis. As reported before and confirmed herein, administration of IL-12 to DBA/1 mice immunized with CII in IFA strongly enhances the cellular and humoral (auto)immune response to CII and induces severe destructive joint disease with an incidence of 80-100%. In contrast, the same treatment did not promote joint disease in C57BL/6 mice. Characterization of the IL-12 effect on the CII-specific immune response of C57BL/6 mice revealed that IL-12 promoted the development of CII-specific T cells producing IFN-gamma in DBA/1 and C57BL/6 mice equally well. However, whereas treatment with IL-12 in DBA/1 mice strongly up-regulated the synthesis of CII-specific antibodies, especially of the IgG2a and IgG2b subclasses, it rather slightly down-regulated the CII-specific IgG2a and IgG2b synthesis in C57BL/6 mice. This may indicate that the effect of IL-12 on the CII-specific antibody synthesis is of crucial importance in the pathogenesis of type II collagen-induced arthritis (CIA). The failure of IL-12 to up-regulate IgG2a and IgG2b synthesis in C57BL/6 mice is specific for CII as antigen and not a general property of this strain because the keyhole limpet hemacyanin-specific antibody response is up-regulated by IL-12 in C57BL/6 mice. Furthermore, it is not the H-2b haplotype of C57BL/6 mice but rather the genetic background (DBA/1 versus BL/6 or BL/10) that limits the effect of IL-12 on the CII-specific antibody response because IL-12 treatment of CII-immunized B10.Q (H-2q) mice also failed to induce arthritis and to enhance CII-specific IgG2a and IgG2b synthesis. However, as in the two other strains, injection of IL-12 promoted the development of splenic T cells producing IFN-gamma upon activation with CII. These results indicate that an enhancement of the cellular and humoral anti-CII response by IL-12 is required for inducing arthritis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the efficacy and risks of local thrombolytic therapy of peripheral arterial occlusions using rt-PA. DESIGN This open study was performed in one clinic in Munich, Germany. METHODS 288 patients suffering from occlusions of the lower limb arteries were subjected to 336 treatments performed with a permanently controlled technique. In a short pilot study 10mg rt-PA/h were administered for 5 h but in the majority of the cases only 2.5mg/h were administered for a maximum of 5 h. The average total dose of rt-PA was 2.97mg and the average time for lysis was 78 min. RESULTS 43 (84.3%) out of 51 embolic occlusions and 168 (71.5%) out of 235 thrombotic occlusions were recanalised with a cumulative patency of 95% and 79.7% respectively after 2 years. One systemic bleeding occurred in the pilot study with 10mg rt-PA/h whereas with the 2.5mg/h dosage no systemic bleeding or embolism occurred in the 315 treatments. There were no deaths during hospitalisation. Six major and two forefoot amputations were necessary. Thirteen patients required a bypass operation and one an embolectomy. The advantages of our controlled technique are: short duration of treatment, small doses of activating agent, an accurately directed pathway with the possibility of dilating stenoses during the same session, no danger of systemic bleeding or embolism and, therefore, good prospects of success with minimal risk. CONCLUSION The use of rt-PA for local lysis substitutes the inadequate tissue activator available for effective spontaneous lysis and is, therefore, almost physiological. The effect of a very low dose of rt-PA was as good as that of higher doses.

Abstract
Collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) is an (autoimmune) joint disease readily elicited in DBA/1 mice by immunization with type II collagen (CII) emulsified with complete Freund's adjuvant. It is a destructive arthritis involving about 50% of the limbs and occurs with an incidence of 70% to 100%. In this study we evaluated the effect of mouse recombinant interleukin-12 (mrIL-12) on CIA. Administration of mrIL-12 at high doses (1 micrograms/mouse, daily) for 2 or 3 weeks delayed the onset and reduced the incidence of CIA. Furthermore, the severity of CIA was much milder and in most cases restricted to single digits of the paws. Short-term administration of high doses of IL-12 exerted some, but less pronounced, disease-suppressing effect. In contrast, 10-fold lower doses of IL-12 given during the first 3 weeks, or high doses of IL-12 administered therapeutically proved to be ineffective. Only those regimens of IL-12 treatment that ameliorated CIA were associated with a down-regulation of the CII-specific antibody response. A strong inhibition of CII-specific IgG1 antibodies (10- to 20-fold) and a moderately (2- to 6-fold) suppressed IgG2b response was observed, whereas the level of CII-specific IgG2a antibodies remained high. Taken together, the results indicate that some initial events in the induction of CIA in DBA/1 mice injected with CII emulsified with CFA are suppressed by treatment with high doses of IL-12.

Abstract
This paper deals with the establishment of the National Breastfeeding Committee at the Robert-Koch-Institut and its activities. As the highest level scientific and advisory board for the German Federal Health Ministry the institute obtained permission from the state authorities to carry out a survey of the local health offices. A finding of this survey was that the different health offices apparently place different priorities on advising mothers in regard to breastfeeding. Some health offices offer medical counselling and others indicate that their counselling is carried out by non-medical personnel. In some cases the health offices reported a supply but no demand. We believe that the public health services should at least provide information on breastfeeding counselling in the community and on training opportunities for counsellors. The National Breastfeeding Commission will collect such information and provide it to the health offices and also give advice in the case of problems with regard to breastfeeding.

Abstract
In the mammalian sperm head the nucleus is tightly associated, in many species in its posterior part, with a large and dense nonfilamentous cytoskeletal structure, the calyx, whose major proteins are basic, representing a novel category of cytoskeletal element. Using specific antibodies, biochemical methods, and cDNA cloning we have characterized one of these calyx proteins, previously termed calicin, in bull and man. The polypeptide of 588 amino acids (Mr of 66,889; IEP 8.1) is very similar in the two species and is encoded by a approximately 2.2-kb mRNA that has been detected only in testis but not in any other tissue or cell culture examined. Sequence analysis has revealed that calicin is homologous to the kelch protein of the ring canal structure of Drosophila ovaries. In particular, it contains three consecutive repeating units of 48 amino acids each which are homologous to the so-called "beta-strand folds" occurring in proteins of the kelch family, including the actin cross-linking protein scruin of Limulus sperm and a series of other eukaryotic, bacterial, and viral proteins. Moreover, the amino terminal domain of calicin contains a region of about 100 amino acids homologous to an extended motif shared by the kelch protein as well as various zinc finger and poxvirus proteins. The possible role of calicin as a morphogenic cytoskeletal element in spermiogenic differentiation is discussed, also in relation to the demonstrated absence or altered arrangement of calicin in frequent forms of human teratozoospermia such as "round-headed" or other "postacrosomal sheath defect" sperm malformations.
