Controlled release of sugar and toxicant from a novel device for controlling pest insects

A novel biodegradable device, designed for long-lasting residual effectiveness of feeding stimulant (sugar) and insecticide (dimethoate) against apple maggot flies and other insects, was formulated. The device is an 8-cm diameter fruit-mimicking sphere, consisting of 42–50% sugar entrapped in a mixture of gelatinized corn flour and wheat flour in the presence of glycerin, and coated with a layer of latex paint containing dimethoate and sugar. We found that the outer layer of paint prevents cracking of the sphere upon drying and creates a barrier to control the release of both sugar and dimethoate. Releases of each ingredient were screened first by chemical analysis and then by bioassays in the laboratory and in field cages against apple maggot flies. Chemical analysis demonstrated strong potential for controlled release of water-soluble feeding stimulant and water-insoluble insecticide measured as a function of the amount of rainfall and duration of exposure time. Field results showed greater than 70% insecticidal activity after 11 weeks of sphere exposure in an orchard. This device has the potential to be used for a variety of insect-control applications through manipulating its shape, color and texture into forms known to be attractive to target insects, and by employing various toxicants designed to be effective against such insects.     

Use of a Paracorporeal Pneumatic Ventricular Assist Device for Postoperative Cardiogenic Shock in Two Children with Complex Cardiac Lesions

Pneumatic ventricular assist device (VAD) was utilized for cardiogenic shock after intracardiac operation in two children with complex cardiac anomalies based with single ventricle. In the first case (a 10-year-old), after a modified Fontan operation, VAD was placed between the functional left atrium and ascending aorta, serving as a "artificial single ventricle" with neither pumping chamber nor artificial support in the right side of the heart. The systemic circulation was maintained by keeping relatively high central venous pressure. In another child (a 3-year-old) who underwent repair of incompetent atrioventricular valve leaving intracardiac lesions, VAD was placed between the common atrium and ascending aorta, serving as a pump for both pulmonary and systemic circulation with regulation of pulmonary blood flow through an aortopulmonary Gore-Tex shunt. The circulatory assist with VAD was utilized for 5 and 6 days, respectively. Although weaning from the device was not feasible in both patients because of the pulmonary dysfunction, these experience showed the possible use of VAD for cardiogenic shock after surgery in patients with complex cardiac anomalies.     

头颈部肿瘤射野摆位误差的差异性研究

目的：研究采用电子射野系统评价头颈部肿瘤患者摆位误差时的观察者间变异和观察者自身变异。方法：两队研究小组，分别由四名医师和四名技师组成，两组分别对6名头颈部肿瘤的患者，采用电子射野影像仪（electronic portal imaging device，EPID）拍摄验证片（electronic portal images，EPIs），在EPIs上勾画骨性标志，以放疗计划生成的数字重建图像（digitally reconstructed radiographs，DRRs）做为参考图像，定量分析不同观察研究人员之间和研究人员自身采用EPID确定头颈部肿瘤患者的射野摆位误差（field placement errors，FPEs）的差异性。结果：在前／后位射野图像上．不同医师之间、医师自身及技师自身对摆位误差的判断无明显差异，但在技师之间出现了明显的自身差异性．医师组和技师组在前／后射野图像上的均方根（root-mean—square，RMS）分别为2．52±0．46和3．43±0．43，两者具有明显差异；在侧位野图像上，医师自身对摆位误差的判断有较好的稳定性，但部分不同医师之间在腹背、头足方向上部分患者中出现差异，而不同的技师之间存在明显差异性，医师组和技师组在侧位射野图像上的RMS分别为2．72±0．16和2．62±0．22．两者无明显差异。结论：医师和技师组在采用电子射野系统对头颈部摆位误差进行判断时存在人员之间的误差，应对所有人员进行统一训练才能减少射野摆位误差，从而提高IMRT治疗效果。     

双凤尾钢板植骨内固定治疗胸腰椎爆裂骨折的生物力学测试

目的 对双凤尾钢板治疗胸腰椎爆裂骨折进行生物力学评价和临床应用观察。方法 取成年男性尸体脊柱标本(T12-L2),制成8具L1椎体爆裂骨折模型。按实际手术方法放置双凤尾钢板。对试件分别进行轴向和弯曲扭转加载测试。临床观察应用双凤尾钢板治疗胸腰椎爆裂骨折的效果。结果 压缩实验和弯曲扭转实验中,各点应变值与载荷均呈线性关系。当轴向载荷达到600N或扭矩达到600N·cm时,这种线性关系未改变。弯扭矩与模型两端之间相对扭转角的增加呈线性关系。弯扭矩达到600N·cm时,扭转角只有6.26°。临床观察表明双凤尾钢板固定可靠。结论 双凤尾钢板固定具有良好的稳定性,表现出高弹性,符合生物学固定的原则。值得临床推广应用。     

The fourth-generation centrifugal blood pump

 The NEDO Gyro permanently implantable (PI) centrifugal blood pump has been developed as a simple, durable, centrifugal blood pump without a complex magnetic suspension system. In vitro studies were performed using a Gyro PI pump with the transparent pump housing in a mock circuit. These studies revealed that the impeller transfers to a floating or a top contact condition, which was dependent on the revolutions per minute (RPM). This pump can be easily converted from a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) to a right ventricular assist device (RVAD) by simply adding a spacer between the pump and the actuator. In order to optimize the impeller suspension for the LVAD and RVAD, spacers of the proper thickness are inserted between both of the pumps and the actuators to regulate the magnetic force. Two Gyro PI pumps were implanted in a bovine model in a 3-month biventricular assist device (BVAD) animal study. This experiment was electively terminated 90 days after implantation. All of the parameters, including pump flow rate, power consumption, and plasma free hemoglobin, were in acceptable ranges. No thrombus formation was observed in either pump. Antithrombogenesis and effectiveness were demonstrated in this animal study. The NEDO Gyro PI pump is ready to move on to the 3-month preclinical system evaluation.

An open,randomized single-centre study to compare the efficacy and convenience of follitropin beta administered by a pen device with follitropin alpha administered by a conventional syringe in women undergoing ovarian stimulation for IVF/ICSI

BACKGROUND: A pen device, similar to an insulin pen, has been recently marketed for the administration of follitropin beta in cartridges. A randomized controlled trial was performed to compare the efficacy and convenience of this pen device delivering follitropin beta with a conventional syringe delivering follitropin alpha. METHODS: A total of 200 patients needing IVF/ICSI treatment and willing to self-inject were enrolled in the study. All subjects had ovarian stimulation according to a long protocol and were randomized to the pen or the conventional syringe group during down-regulation by means of a computer-generated randomization list using random numbers. Patients were asked to fill in a daily local tolerance book after each injection. On the day of hCG the patients scored a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain and convenience. RESULTS: The average duration, total dose of recombinant FSH and number of cumulus oocyte complexes retrieved were 10.8/12.0 days (P = 0.001), 1880/2226 IU (P < 0.001) and 15.2/13.1 respectively in the pen device and conventional syringe groups; the presence of pain after the daily injection was significantly higher in the conventional syringe group (P = 0.027); the visual analogue scale score was similar for pain but significantly more convenient for the pen device (P < 0.001). The live birth rate per embryo transfer was 32.9 and 34.4% respectively in the pen device and conventional syringe groups. CONCLUSIONS: Self-injection with the pen device is safe and easy, more convenient and less painful for the patient, requires less FSH and shortens the treatment duration.
