Injured worker helplessness: Critical relationships and systems level approach for intervention

An appropriate paradigm for explaining the evident problems of motivating the workers' compensation claimant toward occupational recovery may be found in the learned helplessness model. This article examines the critical relationships in the workers' compensation system and the potential for development of the injured worker helplessness within that system. The author offers the learned helplessness model as an alternative framework through which injured worker behavior can be explained and understood. It is suggested that the non-contingent rewards and the uncontrollable dynamics characteristic of workers' compensation systems lead to claimants' learning helplessness. Finally, a total quality managed disability prevention system is offered as the organization's best approach to reducing the likelihood of learned helplessness.     

Development of tyrosine hydroxylase-, dopamine- and dopamine β-hydroxylase-immunoreactive neurons in a teleost, the three-spined stickleback

The development of catecholaminergic neuronal systems in the brain of a teleost, the three-spined stickleback, was studied through embryonic to early larval stages by immunocytochemistry using specific antibodies against dopamine, tyrosine hydroxylase and dopamine β-hydroxylase. By analysing the spatiotemporal patterns of development for the catecholaminergic nuclei, possible homologies with nuclei in amniote brains have been identified.

The noradrenergic neurons in the isthmus region of the rostral rhombencephalon originate in the same manner as the A4–A7 + subcoeruleus group in mammals. Their developmental characteristics show the largest similarities with the subcoeruleus group of birds and mammals, although some features are shared with developing A6 (locus coeruleus) neurons.

Catecholaminergic neurons never appear during development in the ventral mesencephalon of the three-spined stickleback. A group of large dopaminergic neurons that accompany the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-contacting neurons follows the border between the hypothalamus and the ventral thalamus into the caudal hypothalamus, where they are continuous with the dopaminergic neurons in the posterior tuberculum. They are thus topologically comparable with the dopaminergic neurons of the zona incerta in mammals.

The dopaminergic CSF-contacting neurons that line the median, lateral and posterior recesses of the third ventricle do not contain tyrosine hydroxylase-immunoreactivity at any developmental stage. This indicates that they take up and accumulate exogenous dopamine or -dihydroxyphenylalanine, and do not synthesize dopamine from tyrosine at any developmental stage. Tyrosine hydroxylase-immunoreactive neurons appear in the pineal organ on the day of hatching (120 h post-fertilization). They were still observed in 240-h-old larvae, but are absent in the pineal organ of adult sticklebacks.

The initial appearance and subsequent differentiation of catecholaminergic neurons in the stickle-back embryo follow essentially the same spatial and temporal pattern as in amphibian, avian and mammalian embryos. This observation supports the hypothesis that morphologically, topologically and chemically similar monoaminergic neurons in different vertebrate classes are homologous.

使用ＥＬＩＳＡ双抗夹心法对临床４３例造血系统恶性肿瘤患者及２０例健康体检人员的血清ｓＩＬ－２Ｒ进行检测，并对ＡＬＬ和ＡＮＬＬ复发与未复发患者的血清ｓＩＬ－２Ｒ水平进行了比较分析。实验结果表明，血清ｓＩＬ－２Ｒ水平的升高是造血系统恶性肿瘤的重要标志之一；测定血清ｓＩＬ－２Ｒ水平对造血系统恶性肿瘤的辅助诊断、疗效观察及预后估计具有重要意义。     

Antioxidant and glutathione-related enzymatic activities in rat sciatic nerve

The present work tries to establish the antioxidant capacity of the peripheral nervous tissue of the rat, in terms of the enzymatic activities present in this tissue that either prevent the formation of activated species as the semiquinone radical (DT-diaphorase), protect against activated oxygen species (superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase), conjugate natural toxic products or xenobiotics (glutathione S-transferases, especially the activity conjugating 4-hydroxy-nonenal), or complete the glutathione system metabolism (glutathione disulfide reductase, γ-glutamyl transpeptidase). All the activities studied are lower in this tissue than they are in liver, except for γ-glutamyl transpeptidase. The relevance of the results obtained and its possible relationship with different neuropathies is discussed. It is concluded that the peripheral nervous tissue is by far less protected than the liver against oxidative damage.     

Reduction mammaplasty by central pedicle flap with short submammary scar

Reduction mammaplasty was performed in 30 patients by combining the central pedicle flap method with the short submammary scar (3-S) technique to avoid the common drawbacks of currently popular dermoglandular procedures. Reduction was accomplished by using perforating vascular branches from the pectoralis major muscle and its fascia supplying the nipple and breast parenchyme instead of the subdermal plexus. The central vascular pedicle supplying the nipple-areola complex was preserved. Only the periphery of the breast parenchyme was resected circumferentially, with the exception of the inferolateral portion, so as not to injure the sensory nerve. The remaining breast parenchyme was preserved in an inverted cone shape. The nipple-areola complex was safely transposed with great freedom, and the amount of resection was accurately adjusted for symmetry. No cases of nipple-areola complex sensory change occurred postoperatively, and lactation is possible because of preservation of the lactiferous ducts. The length of postoperative scars was reduced by using the short submammary scar technique. We believe this combined method is ideal in patients requiring resections ranging from 200 to 600 g per breast with good skin elasticity and moderate degree of ptosis.Presented at the Sixth Asian Pacific Congress of the International Confederation for Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, in Seoul, Korea, October 1993.     

Pixel value modification using RVG-4 automatic exposure compensation for instant high-contrast images

The RVG-4 permits automatic exposure compensation (AEC). The purpose of this investigation was to determine the effects of AEC on image contrast. Images were made either with or without a dental QA jaw phantom using a fixed image projection geometry. Exposures were 6.3 through 27.3 μC/kg using an X-ray generator operated at 70 kVp. Region of interest pixel value distributions were measured at tissue thicknesses in this phantom, and the average pixel values and signal-to-noise ratios (SNR) were calculated. The use of AEC without an object in place resulted in a disproportionate relationship between pixel value and exposure with a marked reduction in SNR. The use of AEC on under- and over-exposed images of the phantom simultaneously enhanced image contrast and reduced SNR. Thus, AEC provides a convenient and quick method for achieving high-contrast images with sub-optimal exposures, however, this could lead to inappropriate patient dosages if the function is used for over-exposed images. AEC reduces the SNR and produces disproportionate pixel values relative to exposure.     

HLA and Down syndrome (DS): parents at the origin of the nondisjunction share no more HLA-A and -B antigens with their DS child than controls

Fifty couples and their children with Down syndrome (D.S.) were typed for HLA-A and HLA-B antigens and compared to 50 control families and 464 blood donors. The parental origin of the extra chromosome 21 was determined by cytogenetic methods. All individuals were caucasians and there was no history of consanguinity. No excessive HLA sharing was present in D.S. parents. The mothers of D.S. shared no more HLA antigens with their D.S. children than the control mothers with their normal children (14% vs. 18%). Thirteen of the fifty pairs (26%) (parent in whom the nondisjunction occurred and D.S. child) shared three HLA antigens at the A and/or B locus. This was not significantly higher than the proportion in the control group (12/50 or 24%). These data suggest that it is not the sharing of HLA-A and HLA-B antigens between the parents or between the parent who was the origin of the nondisjunction and the D.S. child that is related either to the occurrence of trisomy 21 zygotes or to prenatal survival of affected embryos and fetuses.

白细胞介素—2新的功能位点及其中枢镇痛作用

白细胞介素－２（ＩＬ－２）不仅是重要的免疫调节因子，而且还具有重要的中枢调节作用。本实验以钾离子透入引起大鼠甩尾反应为指标，发现侧脑室注射ＩＬ—２能显著提高动物痛阈，并能被纳洛酮所阻断，表示ＩＬ－２的中枢镇痛作用可能与阿片受体有关。利用基因定位突变技术获得的无免疫活性ＩＬ－２实查体仍具有中枢镇痛作用，表明ＩＬ—２分子上发挥镇痛和免疫调节作用的功能位点是相互独立的。纳洛酮能够阻断ＩＬ—２的中枢镇痛作用，而不能影响ＩＬ—２增殖ＣＴＬＬ－２细胞的作用，提示ＩＬ－２发挥镇痛和免疫调节作用可能通过不同的受体途径。ＩＬ－２分子中第４５位Ｔｙｒ残基突变为Ｖａｌ后，虽仍保留了免疫活性，但丧失了镇痛功能，表示４５位Ｔｙｒ残基是ＩＬ—２发挥中枢镇痛功能的关键残基之一。我们推测ＩＬ—２的镇痛功能位点可能在ＩＬ—２分子中第４５位Ｔｙｒ残基附近区域。
