conference report: Mental health and intellectual disability: an international perspective

The present paper reports on the inaugural meeting of the Mental Health Special Interest Research Group (SIRG) of the International Association for the Scientific study of Intellectual disability which was held at Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge, UK, in March 1998. The meeting was organized in conjunction with the Ninth Annual SIRG on ageing and intellectual disability. Representatives from North America, several European and Scandinavian countries, Australia, and Israel attended. Two broad themes had been determined prior to the meeting: ‘Improving the detection of mental health problems’ and ‘Research strategies for identifying risk factors for mental health problems’. In the presentations and subsequent discussions, it was apparent that there were extrenely diverse perspectives both across and within the different countries represented. Not only were individuals' experiences very different, but most strikingly, the theoretical frameworks were very diverse. This was partly a function of there being understandable differences in perspectives across disciplines, but at its most marked, there were fundamental differences in the way both intellectual disability and mental health were conceptualized.

Cytogenetic characterization of ten cases of Ph1-positive acute myelogenous leukemia

Chromosome banding analyses were made on 10 cases of Ph1-positive AML (7 M1 and 3 M2). The standard type Ph1 translocation, t(9q +;22q -), was identified in all of them. Karyotypically normal cells were observed in 6-65% of bone marrow metaphases at the initial cytogenetic examination of 7 patients, whereas the remaining 3 patients had only Ph1-positive cells at diagnosis. Follow-up studies performed in 5 cases indicated that the frequency of karyotypically normal cells increased up to 81-100% when the patients were in remission, whereas it was much reduced in relapse. In 5 cases, there was observed a clone of cells in which the Ph1 translocation was the sole karyotypic abnormality. Various types of other chromosome abnormalities, in addition to the Ph1, were observed in all cases, among which-7 was the most frequent, being found in three cases as a stem line. Other additional changes encountered were + Ph1, del(5), i(17q), - 10, + 18, + X, and various numerical and structural changes including certain secondary translocations that occurred in the Ph1 (22q -) or its partner (9q +). The types and frequencies of these additional changes appeared to be different from those found in the acute phase of CML or in Ph1-positive ALL.

Glucose preferences in wild and domestic guinea pigs

Male wild (Cavia aperea) and domestic (C. porcellus) guinea pigs were tested in two-bottle choice tests for preferences between glucose solutions of different concentrations and de-ionized water. Wild males showed significant preferences for concentrations between 0.025 and 0.4 M glucose while domestic males preferred only the 0.2 M glucose solution to de-ionized water. C. aperea males also consumed significantly greater volumes of liquid per kg body $\text{wt.}{}^{\mathrm{<mtext>3</mtext><mtext>4</mtext>}}$ during the glucose tests than did the C. porcellus males. These comparative results contrast sharply with those obtained by other authors with wild and domestic Norway rats.

Histopathological grading of soft tissue tumours. Prognostic significance in a prospective study of 278 consecutive cases

A consecutive 10-year series of 278 soft tissue sarcomas was prospectively graded, using a system based on the number of mitoses and taking into account parameters such as cellularity, anaplasia, necrosis, and histogenetic type and subtype of tumour. Prognostic factors in relation to metastasis-free survival were studied by uni- and multivariate analysis. Fifty-seven (20.5 per cent) were low-grade tumours, 43 (15.5 per cent) were intermediate, and 178 (64 per cent) were high grade. High-grade tumours were divided into two groups; 80 (29 per cent) grade 3A (= 5-20 mitoses per 10 high power fields (HPF)) and 78 grade 3B (28 per cent) (= more than 20 mitoses/10 HPF); 10 HPF corresponds to 2.5 mm2. Twenty (7.2 per cent) high-grade tumours could not be further subdivided. Grading was found to be the prognostic factor associated with the strongest predictive value. Five-year survival in low-grade and intermediate tumours (95 and 86 percent, respectively) differed significantly (P less than 0.0001) from high grade (50 per cent) and (p = 0.0018) between grade 3A (64 per cent) and grade 3B (41 per cent). Other prognostic indicators of importance in high-grade tumours were age, local recurrence at presentation (primary operation outside the Centre), and localization (superficial vs. deep).     

Preferential involvement of chromosome 1q in a primary breast carcinoma

The cytogenetic findings by G- and C-banding in a primary breast carcinoma are reported. The tumor is characterized by a high modal number of chromosomes (79) and 14 markers of ten different origins. Chromosome #1 is more frequently involved in structural and numerical aberrations than is any other chromosome; nine copies of 1q were present in each cell examined. This observation supports the hypothesis that duplication of chromosome 1q may play an important role in the progression of malignant tumors.
