Pusher curving technique for preventing tilt of femoral Günther Tulip inferior vena cava filter: in vitro study

Objective To determine whether the adjustment of the pusher of GTF was useful to decrease the degree of tilting of the femoral Ginther Tulip filter (GTF) in an in vitro caval model. Methods The caval model was constructed by placement of a 25 mm × 100 mm and two 10 mm ×200 mm Dacron graft inside a transparent bifurcate glass tube. The study consisted of two groups: left straight group (GLS) (n =100) and left curved group (GLC) (n = 100). In the GLC, a 10° to 20° angle was curved on the introducer.The distance (DCH) between the caval right wall and the hook was measured. The degree of tilting (DT) was classified into 5 grades and recorded. Before and after the GTF being released, the angle (ACM1, 2)between the axis of IVC and the metal mount, the distance (DCM1) between the caval right wall and the metal mount, the angle (ACF) between the axis of IVC and the axis of the filter and the diameter of IVC (DIVC) were measured. The data were analyzed with Chi-Square test, t test, rank sum test and Pearson correlation test. Results The degree of GTF tilting in each group revealed a divergent tendency. In group LC, the apex of the filter tended to be grade Ⅲ compared in group LS (x2 value 37. 491 ,P ＜0.01).The differences of most variables between GLS and GLC were considered as statistical significance(16. 60° vs.3.05°, 20.60° vs. 3.50°, -3.90°vs. -0.40°, 2.98 mm vs. 10.40 mm, - 10.95° vs. -0.485°,13. 17 mm vs. 10.06 mm, - 1.70° vs. 0.70°, t or Z values - 12. 187, - 12. 188, -8.545, -51.834,-11. 395,9. 562, -3. 596, P ＜ 0. 01). There exist significant positive correlation between ACM1 and ACF,ACM1 - ACM2 and DCH1 - DCH2 in each group, respectively(r values 0. 978,0. 344,0. 879,0. 627 ,P ＜0. 01),while significant negative associations are detected between DCH1 and ACF in each group , ACP and ACF in group LC(r values -0.974, -0.322, -0.702,P＜0.01). Conclusion The technique of adjusting the orientation of filter pusher had minimized the incidence and extent of GTF filter tilting in vitro.

Effects of hyperbaric oxygen on TF、TNF-α in the rabbit model of steroid-induced avascular osteonecrosis of femoral head

Objective To investigate dynamic changes in serum TF and TNF-α in the rabbit model of steroid-induced avascular osteonecrosis of femoral head ( SANFH) and also to explore the mechanism of SANFH, as well as effects of hyperbaric oxygen ( HBO) on SANFH. Methods Seventy-eight New Zealand male rabbits were randomly divided into 3 groups:the normal control (group N) (7 animals), the model group (group M) (41 animals) and the HBO group (group H) (30 animals). The model group was subdivided into the immediate model group (the M0 group) (10 animals), the two-week model group (the M2 group) (10 animals), the four-week model group (the M4 group) (10 animals) and the six-week model group (the M6 group) (11 animals). The HBO group was further divided into the 2-week HBO therapy group (HBO2) (7 animals), the 4-week HBO therapy group (HBO4) (11 animals) and the 6-week HBO therapy group (HBO6) (12 animals). Through injection of endotoxin and methyl-prednisolone, rabbits in the group HBO2, HBO4 and HBO6 received HBO therapy 1 hour daily from the second day of the experiment. The durations of HBO therapy were 2 weeks ( HBO2), and 4 weeks respectively. The animals were sacrificed after blood samples were taken at respective blood collection time. Then, levels of TF, TNF-α in the serum were measured and the histological changes in the femoral heads were observed. Results Levels of TF and TNF-α in group M0 increased significantly, when compared with those of group N (P ＜0. 05 or P ＜0.01), while for the HBO subgroups the expression of TF and TNF-α measured at the same time points all decreased, when compared with that of the model subgroups (P＜0. 05 or P ＜0.01). To elaborate, TF levels in group M2 and M4 were much higher than those in group HBO2 and HBO4 ( P＜0. 01 ). TF level in group M6 was higher than that in group HB06 ( P ＜ 0.05). TNF-α in group M0 also increased significantly, when compared with that in group N( P ＜0.01). TNF-α levels in group M2 and M6 were also much higher than those in group HBO2 and HBO6 ( both P ＜0. 01 ). TNF-α in group M4 was higher than that in group HBO4 (P＜0.01). Histological examination revealed that tissues of the femoral heads in group N were normal, osteonecrosis and thrombus could be noted in group M2 and M4, hyperplasia fibrosis could be found in group M6, and osteonecrosis in HBO2 and HB04 groups seemed less severer than that in M2 and M4 groups, no thrombi in HBO2, HBO4 groups were noted, and growth of new bones were detected in HBO4 and HBO6. Conclusions The levels of TF and TNF-α levels increased in the rabbit model of SANFH, inducing blood coagulation. Thrombosis at the femoral heads was one of the causes of SANFH. HBO therapy could inhibit the release of TF and TNF-α, thus improving the abnormality of blood coagulation and enhancing treatment of osteonecrosis.     

三种止血带动脉止血对犬束扎肢体静脉血气的影响

Objective To observe changes of venous blood gas when applying tourniquets to arterial bleeding dog models and compare the injury of the bundled tissues caused by three different tourniquets. Methods A total of 18 dogs were randomly divided to three groups and made into femoral artery bleeding model of the hind limbs. Then, rubber tubing, half-hitch tourniquet and multi-function pressure-control bandage (hemostatic bandage group) were employed respectively for femoral artery hemostasis in three groups. The pressure produced by the bandage and femoral vein blood gas indices were measured at 0.5, 1, 3 and 6 hours respectively after tourniquet application. Results The pressure produced by the hemostatic bandage group was 0.74 kg, which was obviously lower than 1.46 kg in the rubber tubing group and 2.09 kg in the half-hitch tourniquet group ( P ＜ 0.05 ). At one hour after hemostasis, PvO2 was (36.45 ± 10.45 )mm Hg in the hemostatic bandage group and (28.73 ± 9.07 )mm Hg in the rubber tubing group, which was significantly higher than (21.87 ±4.30) mm Hg in the half-hitch tourniquet group ( P ＜ 0.05 ). At 3 and 6 hours after hemostasis, PvCO2 was (50.67 ± 9.31 ) mm Hg and (60.02 ± 10.85)mm Hg respectively in the hemostatic bandage group, while (16.85 ± 16.51 )mm Hg and ( 60.02 ± 10.85) mm Hg respectively in the rubber tubing group, which were lower than that in the half-hitch tourniquet group ( P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01 ) . Conclusion Compared with rubber tubing and Halfhitch tourniquet, the hemostatic bandage can efficiently stop bleeding under slight pressure, with the least injury to the bundled tissues.

Objective To retrospectively analyze whether the kyphosis exists after removal of the internal fixators for thoracolumabar vertebrae fractures. Methods A total of 18 patients (35-68 years old) with thoracolumabar vertebrae fractures (T11-L2 ) were fixed with short segment pedical screw. The fixators were removed one year postoperatively to observe the changes of the Cobb' s angle and trauma vertebra'height. Results All the patients were followed up for 6-24 months ( average 18.7 months),which showed no intraoperative or postoperative complication, breakage or loosening of the screws. Compared to the Cobb angle and the vertebra height before removal of the internal fixators, the average loss of the Cobb angle was 0.7° and that of the vertebra height was 0.8 mm six months after removal of the fixators, 1.9° and 1.1 mm respectively one year after removal of the fixators, and 2.4° and 1.3 mm respectively two years after removal of the fixators in 16 patients without osteoporosis (P ＞0. 05). Among two patients with osteoporosis, the average loss of the Cobb angle and the vertebra height was 6° and 8°respectively and 3 mm and 5 mm respectively six months after removal of the fixators; 13° and 17° respectively and 5 mm and 7 mm respectively one year after removal of the fixators; 15° and 19° respectively and 6 mm and 7.5 mm two years after removal of the fixators. Conclusions After the internal fixation for thoracolumbar vertebrae burst fractures, kyphosis develops mildly, with insignificant change of the vertebral height. While the kyphosis becomes worse after removal of the fixators for thoracolumbar vertebrae burst fractures in patients with osteoporosis.

高压氧对局灶性脑缺血再灌注大鼠紧密连接蛋白及血脑屏障通透性的影响

Objective To investigate effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) on the occludin and ZO-1 in the brain tissues and permeability of blood brain barrier (BBB) after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in mice. Methods Male Wistar mice were randomly divided into 4 groups; the sham group, the ischemia-reperfusion group (IR) , the HBO group and the IR + HBO group. Following development of the cerebral ischemia reperfusion model, 5 sessions of HBO at 0.25 Mpa were applied during the reperfusion period, and 2% Evens blue (EB) was injected into the tail veins an hour before the animals were executed. Following ischemia reperfusion, changes in the permeability of BBB were monitored with the EB method. Following ischemia reperfusion, the distributions of occludin and ZO-1 in the brain tissue were observed with immunohistochemical method, and the expressions of occludin, ZO-1, and the contents of EB were determined by Western Blot and spectrophotometer. Results When compared with that of the sham group, the levels of EB in the brain tissue for the IR group increased significantly, reaching peak at 4 h following IR injury (P＜0. 01). In the IR + HBO group, EB contents in the brain tissue decreased significantly, when compared with those of the IR group ( P＜ 0.01). However, no significant changes in the expression of occludin, ZO-1 and the content of EB in the brain tissue could be noted in the HBO, when compared with those of the sham group (P＞0.05). In the IR group, the expressions of occludin and ZO-1 at 4, 12, 24, 48, 72 h after reperfusion decreased significantly, when compared with those at 0 h( P＜0. 01). However, for the IR + HBO group, the expressions of occludin and ZO-1 at 72 h after reperfusion increased markedly (P＜0. 01). No obvious changes in the expression of occludin and ZO-1 could be noted in the brain tissue in the animals in the HBO group, when compared with those in the sham group (P＞0. 05). Conclusions HBO intervention could increase markedly the expressions of occludin and ZO-1 in the ischemia-reperfusion brain tissue, thus decreasing permeability of BBB.

Abstract：

Objective To investigate the morphologic features of Bachmann bundle (BB) and its vascular supply on dual-source CT coronary angiography(DSCTCA) in healthy volunteers and patients with coronary artery lesion (CAL). Methods Clinical histories, electrocardiograms (ECGs), and images of DSCTCA of 106 patients ( CAL group) and 100 healthy volunteers ( Control group) were reviewed. All 106 patients underwent conventional coronary angiography ( CCA ). The Gensini scoring system was used to assess the results of CCA. The patients were divided into three groups according to their Gensini scores. The length, width and superoinferior diameter, CT value, and vascular supply of BB were studied. Rank sum test for continuous variables and Chi-square test for categorical variables were used in statistical analysis.Results ( 1 ) BB visualization rate of control group was higher than CAL group [86.0% (86/100) vs 51.9%(55/106), x2 = 27.726, P ＜ 0.01]. The higher the Gensini score of CAL subgroup, the lower the visualization rate of its BB [80.0% ( 28/35 ), 55.6% ( 20/36 ), 20.0% ( 7/35 ), x2 = 25.530, P ＜ 0.01].(2)The median of measurements of length,width and superoinferior diameter of control and CAL group were 13.0 vs 13.8,5.0 vs 5.2 and 5.9 vs 6.2 mm, respectively ( P ＞ 0.05 ). (3) The CT value of the BB region in control group( median :42.6 HU ) was higher than that of CAL group( median: 13.0 HU) ( Z = - 7.061, P ＜0.01). The CT values of BB regions in patients with nonvisualized BB (median: -16.0 HU) were lower. The CT values of the BB regions in CAL group were negatively-correlated with Gensini scores( median:19.0) (r = -0.553, P ＜0.01 ). (4)The blood supply of BB and BB region was provided by right sinuatrial node artery ( SNA, 58.7%, 121/206 ), left SNA ( 35.9%, 74/206 ) or both SNAs ( 5.3%, 11/206 ).Conclusions DSCTCA could can show the anatomical characteristics of BB and its arterial supply. The serious the degree of CAL , the lower the BB display rate, and the higher the abnormal ECG incidence,which indicate that the occurrence of BB lesions is probably related to ischemia.

TNF-α in group M0 also increased significantly, when compared with that in group N( P ＜0.01). TNF-α levels in group M2 and M6 were also much higher than those in group HBO2 and HBO6 ( both P ＜0. 01 ). TNF-α in group M4 was higher than that in group HBO4 (P＜0.01). Histological examination revealed that tissues of the femoral heads in group N were normal, osteonecrosis and thrombus could be noted in group M2 and M4, hyperplasia fibrosis could be found in group M6, and osteonecrosis in HBO2 and HB04 groups seemed less severer than that in M2 and M4 groups, no thrombi in HBO2, HBO4 groups were noted, and growth of new bones were detected in HBO4 and HBO6. Conclusions The levels of TF and TNF-α levels increased in the rabbit model of SANFH, inducing blood coagulation. Thrombosis at the femoral heads was one of the causes of SANFH. HBO therapy could inhibit the release of TF and TNF-α, thus improving the abnormality of blood coagulation and enhancing treatment of osteonecrosis.

Objective To investigate effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) on the occludin and ZO-1 in the brain tissues and permeability of blood brain barrier (BBB) after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in mice. Methods Male Wistar mice were randomly divided into 4 groups; the sham group, the ischemia-reperfusion group (IR) , the HBO group and the IR + HBO group. Following development of the cerebral ischemia reperfusion model, 5 sessions of HBO at 0.25 Mpa were applied during the reperfusion period, and 2% Evens blue (EB) was injected into the tail veins an hour before the animals were executed. Following ischemia reperfusion, changes in the permeability of BBB were monitored with the EB method. Following ischemia reperfusion, the distributions of occludin and ZO-1 in the brain tissue were observed with immunohistochemical method, and the expressions of occludin, ZO-1, and the contents of EB were determined by Western Blot and spectrophotometer. Results When compared with that of the sham group, the levels of EB in the brain tissue for the IR group increased significantly, reaching peak at 4 h following IR injury (P＜0. 01). In the IR + HBO group, EB contents in the brain tissue decreased significantly, when compared with those of the IR group ( P＜ 0.01). However, no significant changes in the expression of occludin, ZO-1 and the content of EB in the brain tissue could be noted in the HBO, when compared with those of the sham group (P＞0.05). In the IR group, the expressions of occludin and ZO-1 at 4, 12, 24, 48, 72 h after reperfusion decreased significantly, when compared with those at 0 h( P＜0. 01). However, for the IR + HBO group, the expressions of occludin and ZO-1 at 72 h after reperfusion increased markedly (P＜0. 01). No obvious changes in the expression of occludin and ZO-1 could be noted in the brain tissue in the animals in the HBO group, when compared with those in the sham group (P＞0. 05). Conclusions HBO intervention could increase markedly the expressions of occludin and ZO-1 in the ischemia-reperfusion brain tissue, thus decreasing permeability of BBB.     

神经行为评价系统在飞行员脑功能评定中的应用研究

Objective To explore the application of neurobehavioral evaluation system-C3(NES-C3) for pilot's cerebral function (CF) evaluation. Methods The characters of CF under interference of simulated jet engine noise and neurobehavioral ability index (NAI) were investigated in 45 military pilots [(27.6±2.5) yr] (as pilot group) and in 45 college students [(27.5±2.6) yr] (as control group) by NES-C3. The variance of profile of mood statues (POMS) scales, (including tension-anxiety, angry-hostility, exhausted-inertia, gloom-depressed, powerful-restless and stumblepuzzle) and NAI (including memory scanning, digital scanning, visual simple reaction time, visual complex reaction time, pursuit aiming, and consecutive performance) were compared respectively.Results With or without interference of noise, the score of "powerful-restless" in pilot group was higher than that in control group (t=9.74, 12.52, P＜0.05), and the score of tension-anxiety in control group was higher than that in pilot group (t= 10. 46, 14.25, P＜0. 05). When noise was applied, the score of POMS in control group was significantly increased (t=2. 85-6. 33, P＜0. 05) but in pilot group only "tension-anxiety" and "powerful-restless" were significantly increased (t = 4. 12,5.92, P＜0.05). The score of "tension-anxiety" in control group was higher than that in pilot group.Four items of NAI in pilot group were significantly higher than those in control group (t= 2 91-10.55, P＜0. 05). There were no noised induced significant NAI changes in pilot group but in control group. They were not only lower than that in the state without noise interference (t-5.24-29.24,P＜0. 05) but also lower than that in pilot group (t=4. 07-28. 41, P＜0. 05). Conclusions NES-C3 is a useful tool for the identification of pilot's CF.

Objective To investigate the effects of radiosensitivity enhancement and inhibition of migration ability of human lung adenocarcinoma cells by celecoxib,a selective cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitor.Methods Human lung adenocarcinoma cells of the line A549 were cultured and then inoculated into six-well plates and randomly divided into 4 groups:control group,celecoxib group administered with celecoxib at the subtoxic doses 30 and 50 μmol/L,irradiated group exposed to 0,1,2,4,6,or 8 Gy by linear accelerator,and combined treatment (celecoxib + irradiation) group.The radiosensitizing effect of celecoxib was assessed by clonogenic cell survival test.The migration ability of the A549 cells was measured by scratch-wound test and the content of metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) in culture supernatant was detected with ELISA.Results The sensitization enhancement ratio of the celexib group was increased dosedependently.The values of D0 ,Dq,SF2 and D0.01 of the celecoxib + irradiation group were all significantly lower than those of the irradiated group.Scratch-wound test showed that the no-scratch area of the celecoxib + irradiation group and celecoxib group were all significantly wider than those of the mere irradiation and control groups and there was a dose-dependent manner,and the no-scratch area of the celecoxib + irradiation group was wlider than that of the celecoxib group.ELISA showed that the MMP-2 levels in the supernatant of the celecoxib group and celecoxib + irradiation group were respectively significantly lower than those of the control group and mere irradiated group (t = 3.78,5.79、3.15,P ＜ 0.05),however,there was not significant difference between the mere irradiation and control groups (t = 2.73,2.38,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Celecoxib enhances concentration-dependently the radiosensitivity of human lung carcinoma cell and inhibits the secretion of MMP-2 of the carcinoma cells,thus inhibiting their migration ability.     

重型颅脑损伤患者血清血栓调节蛋白和血管性假血友病因子动态变化及其临床意义

Objective To investigate the changes of thrombomodulin (TM) and von Willebrand factor (vWf) and their clinical significance in patients with severe brain injury. Methods The study involved 62 patients with severe brain injury who were divided into diffuse axonal injury group (28 patients) and focal brain injury group (34 patients). Then, the 62 patients were divided into young group (16-30 years old, 20 patients), middle-aged group (31-65 years old, 20 patients) and elderly group ( ＞65 years old, 22 patients). The serum levels of TM and vWf were determined at days 1 and 7 after injury respectively. ELISA method was employed to determine the serum levels of TM and vWf.Results The vWf in focal brain injury group was significantly higher than that of diffuse axonal injury group at days 1-7 after injury ( P ＜ 0.05 ). Compared with the young and middle-aged groups, the TM and vWf levels in the elderly group at day 1 after injury were significantly elevated ( P ＜ 0. 05 ). The TM levels in patients with delayed traumatic intracerebral hematoma (DTICH) were significantly higher than that in patients without DTICH (P ＜ 0. 05). Conclusions In the acute stage of severe brain injury,injury severity and activation of endothelial cells varies in patients with different types of injury and at different ages. TM is one of sensitive indicators to reflect the cerebal vascular endothelial cell injury. It is very meaningful to assess the prognosis of severe brain injury by measuring serum levels of TM and vWf and take TM as a predictive indicator for DTICH.

Abstract：

objective To investigate the effects of chronic cadmium exposure and cadmium exposure combined with γ-ray irradiation on the peripheral lymphocytes and their genotoxicity on hprt gene.Methods Ninety-six SD rats were randomly divided into 6 equal groups:①normal control group,②lowdose cadmium exposure group undergoing intraperitoneal injection of 0.1 mg CdCl2·kg-1·d-1 for 8 weeks,③high-dose cadmium exposure group undergoing intraperitoneal injection of 0.5 mg CdCl2·kg-1·d-1 for 8 weeks,④pure irradiation group exposed to whole-body γ-ray irradiation at the dose of 2 Gy for one time,⑤low-dose cadmium exposure combined with irradiation group undergoing intraperitoneal injection of 0.1 mg CdCl2·kg-1·d-1 for 8 weeks and then whole-body 2 Gy γ-ray irradiation,and ⑥high-dose cadmium exposure combined with whole-body 2 Gy γ-ray irradiation group undergoing intraperitoneal injection of 0.5 mg CdCl2·kg-1·d-1 for 8 weeks and then whole-body 2 Gy γ-ray irradiation.Ten days after the irradiation cardiac blood samples were collected from some of the rats to culture the peripheral lymphocytes to detect the micronucleus rate and hprt mutant frequency of lymphocytes bv multinucleated cell assay.The other rats underwent continuous Cd exposure for 4 weeks after γ-ray irradiation and then cardiac blood samples were collected to detect the micronucleus rate and hprt mutant frequencv of lymphocytes.Meanwhile,the amount of white blood cells(WBC)was counted and the blood cadmium concentration was measured by ICP-MS.Results The numbers of WBC in the peripheral blood at different time points of the high dose cadmium group were significantly higher than those of the normal control group(F=8.74.P<0.01 and F=13.11,P=0.000).The micronucleus rate at difierent time points of the pure irradiation group were significantly higher than those of the control group( F = 26. 74 ,P =0. 000 and F = 14. 13, P = 0. 000). The micronucleus rates of the high-dose cadmium group were significantly higher than those of the control group( F = 26. 74 ,P <0. 05 and F = 14. 13 ,P = 0. 000 ). The micronucleus rates of the low-dose cadmium + irradiation group were significantly lower than those of the pure irradiation group( F = 26. 74, P < 0. 01 and F = 14. 13, P < 0. 05 ). The micronucleus rates of the highdose cadmium + irradiation group were significantly higher than those of the pure irradiation group ( F =26.74,P =0. 000 and F = 14. 13 ,P =0. 000). The hprt mutation rates at different time points of the pure irradiation group were significantly higher than those of the normal control group( F = 6.60, P < 0. 01 and F = 12.83 ,P = 0. 001 ). The hprt mutation rates of the high-dose cadmium group were significantly higher than those of the control group ( F = 6. 60, P < 0. 05 and F = 12.83, P < 0.05 ), but not significantly different from those of the pure irradiation group. However, the hprt mutation rates of the high-dose cadmium + irradiation group were significantly higher than those of the pure irradiation ( F = 12. 83, P =0. 000) and high-dose cadmium group( F = 6.60,P < 0.05 and F = 12. 83, P < 0.05 ). The hprt mutation rates of the low-dose cadmium + irradiation group were significantly lower than those of the pure irradiation ( F = 6. 60, P < 0. 05 ) , but not significantly different from those of the control group. Conclusions Chronic exposure to low dose cadmium induces the adaptive response of lymphocytes to radiation. The cadmium in blood at the level of 613-678 μg/L induces leukocytosis and chronic exposure to high dose cadmium combined with irradiation leads to increased genotoxicity of lymphocytes.

Abstract： Objective To study the change of homocysteine (Hcy) concerntration in pilot's blood and to predict the occurrence of cardiovascular events of pilots. Methods One hundred and sixty-three pilots and 60 male health ground service personnel were selected as pilot and control groups and respectively divided by age as 21-30, 31-40 and 41-50 yrs sub-groups. Pilots were also grouped into ≤ 1000 h, 1001-2000 h, 2001-3000 h and 3001-4000 h sub-groups by flying hours. The concentration of Hcy were detected by using automatic biochemical analyzer. Results The Hcy concentration in pilot group was (9.86±4.45) μmol/L comparing to (7.10±1.77) μmol/L in control group and the difference between groups was significant (t=4.67, P＜0.01). For the Hcy change by age, significant differences were between sub-group 21-30 yrs and 41-50 yrs in control group (P＜0.05), and between each two sub-groups in pilot group (P＜0. 05 or P＜0. 01). For the Hcy detection by flying hours, sub-group 1001-2000 h and 2001-3000 h respectively showed significant difference to ≤ 1000 h sub-group (P ＜ 0.01). Between the same age sub-groups, the Hcy concentration in pilots is higher than that in control groups (t=3. 893, 6. 221, 3. 193, P＜0.01).Conclusions Detecting the Hcy concentration in blood can be used to predict the risk of cardiovascular events of pilot. Taking powerful intervention measure to restrict the elevation of Hcy level can effectively prevent coronary heart disease of pilot.
