Serial CT findings of Paragonimus infested dogs and the Micro-CT findings of the worm cysts.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the serial CT findings of Paragonimus westermani infected dogs and the microscopic structures of the worm cysts using Micro-CT. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study was approved by the committee on animal research at our institution. Fifteen dogs infected with P. westermani underwent serial contrast-enhanced CT scans at pre-infection, after 10 days of infection, and monthly thereafter until six months for determining the radiologic-pathologic correlation. Three dogs (one dog each time) were sacrificed at 1, 3 and 6 months, respectively. After fixation of the lungs, both multi-detector CT and Micro-CT were performed for examining the worm cysts. RESULTS: The initial findings were pleural effusion and/or subpleural ground-glass opacities or linear opacities at day 10. At day 30, subpleural and peribronchial nodules appeared with hydropneumothorax and abdominal or chest wall air bubbles. Cavitary change and bronchial dilatation began to be seen on CT scan at day 30 and this was mostly seen together with mediastinal lymphadenopathy at day 60. Thereafter, subpleural ground-glass opacities and nodules with or without cavitary changes were persistently observed until day 180. After cavitary change of the nodules, the migratory features of the subpleural or peribronchial nodules were seen on all the serial CT scans. Micro-CT showed that the cyst wall contained dilated interconnected tubular structures, which had communications with the cavity and the adjacent distal bronchus. CONCLUSION: The CT findings of paragonimiasis depend on the migratory stage of the worms. The worm cyst can have numerous interconnected tubular channels within its own wall and these channels have connections with the cavity and the adjacent distal bronchus.

Comparison of dynamic and step-and-shoot intensity-modulated radiation therapy planning and delivery.

Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) is commonly delivered using the dynamic or segmental mode of multileaf collimators (DMLC or SMLC). Both methods are designed to deliver intensity-modulated beams as determined by inverse planning software. In this study, we have used the Helios IMRT planning system to generate ideal treatment plans for 10 cases of 2 common treatment sites (prostate and head and neck) and have investigated the actual treatment fluence distributions generated for each of the MLC leaf motion choices. The 2 dose delivery techniques were dosimetrically compared to each other and to the treatment plans. For each technique, point doses were measured in a water phantom using ionization chambers. Also for each technique, 2-dimensional dose distributions at a selected depth in a plastic phantom were obtained, using extended range film. The total delivery time and the number of monitor units (MU) delivered by each method were also compared. Our results indicate that the 2 delivery methods produce comparable results dosimetrically. For the cases reviewed, the delivery time was an average of 15% longer for SMLC deliveries, while the number of MUs (beam-on time) required by SMLC was an average of 15% fewer, than that for the DMLC. In the interest of simplicity, lower beam-on time, and potentially fewer mechanically-related problems, we think that the SMLC delivery technique may be the better choice when Helios is used for planning and Varian linear accelerators are used for delivery.     

Enterobacteriaceae isolated in nine general hospitals of the Ile-de-France in 1988 and 1989: susceptibility to beta-lactam antibiotics according to the length of hospitalisation

Susceptibility to beta-lactam antibiotics of strains of Enterobacteriaceae consecutively isolated in nine general hospitals during a period of 2 months (march and april) has been studied by the disk-agar diffusion method. The separation between susceptible and resistant strains was based on the measure of the inhibition zones centered by 2 disks: cephalothin and ticarcillin. Enterobacteriaceae were divided in 2 groups: strains isolated during the first 48 h of hospitalisation or isolated after. Fifty one per cent of the strains were isolated during the first 48 h: they did not belong to the residential flora of these hospitals. Klebsiella, Proteus indole positive, Providencia, Enterobacter, Serratia were more frequently isolated after 48 h of hospitalisation. Susceptible strains of Klebsiella, Proteus indole positive, Providencia, Serratia were more rarely isolated after 48 h of hospitalisation. E. coli whatever the duration of hospitalisation, is the less frequent susceptible bacterium.     

Salmonella typhimurium andSalmonella enteritidis: Changing epidemiology from 1973 until 1992

A retrospective analysis, covering a period of 20 years, of 2049 primo-isolates ofSalmonella typhimurium and 343 primo-isolates ofSalmonella enteritidis was performed at our laboratory. In 1991,S. enteritidis (43.8%) outnumberedS. typhimurium (32.1%) as the most frequently isolated Salmonella. The age group distribution ofS. enteritidis yielded peaks in the under-five and above-60 year age groups, whereasS. typhimurium only peaked in the under-five age group.S. enteritidis appeared to be twice as invasive asS. typhimurium. Both serotypes were more invasive in middle and older age groups than in under-fives.     

Emergence and scattering of multiple neurofibromatosis (NF1)-related sequences during hominoid evolution suggest a process of pericentromeric interchromosomal transposition

Type 1 neurofibromatosis (NF1) gene encodes for a member of the GTPase activating protein family and is considered to be a tumor suppressor gene. Its very high rate of de novo mutation in humans led us to study a specific feature of this gene: the presence of numerous NF1-related sequences. According to our results, the human genome contains at least 11 NF1-related sequences, nine of which are scattered near centromeric sequences of seven different chromosomes. These NF1-related sequences, whose extent is quite varied according to loci, are unprocessed copies of the NF1 gene, and bear numerous mutations. A phylogenetic analysis of the six largest sequences indicates that they are all derived from a common ancestor, which would have appeared 22-33 million years ago, and was subsequently duplicated several times during hominoid evolution. The most recent duplication and interchromosomal transposition occurred in the last million years suggesting that the process could still be ongoing. Intriguing similarities between the evolution of alpha- satellite DNA and NF1-related sequences suggest the involvement of a common genetic mechanism for the generation and pericentric spreading of these NF1 partial copies.
