Preservation of the non-rectangular cuticular plate/cell axis angle of outer hair cells

Motile properties of outer hair cells (OHCs) may contribute to sharp tuning and amplification in the mammalian cochlea. Shape changes of isolated OHCs in response to various physical and chemical influences have been investigated intensively. However, determinations of shape may have been influenced by unanticipated effects of preparation and preservation of the OHCs investigated. Thus, in a first step, lengths of freshly isolated OHCs from the guinea pig cochlea were determined using a video-enhancing magnification system. The cuticular plate/cell axis angle (CP/CA angle) was then measured in native cells and under the influence of potassium chloride and potassium gluconate incubation. To show the influence of glutaraldehyde (GA) fixation on the isolated OHCs, fixative dependent changes on cell length and CP/CA angle were recorded in native and preincubated OHCs. In these experiments, the cell length of vital isolated OHCs was between 41.5 m, in the basal turn, and 103.7 m, in the apical turn. The average CP/CA angle was 106° ± 4.2° (n = 324 cells, turns 1–4) with no statistically significant differences for the four turns. Under the influence of potassium chloride, cell length was reduced by 8.1%. Potassium gluconate incubation led to a shortening of cell length, followed by a 5.3% increase after 5 min. The CP/CA angle under potassium chloride was decreased (97.0°) and was then increased under the influence of potassium gluconate (110.7°) as a result of cuticular plate tilting. Cell shrinkage after fixation depended on the fixative's osmolarity and on the GA concentration. Increased GA levels amplified cell shrinkage from 34% for hypo-osmolar solutions to 15% in iso-osmolar and 29% in hyperosmolar solutions. The CP/CA angle of native and incubated OHCs was not different from those fixed with GA. The present data provide a rational basis for isolated OHC shape parameters. Moreover, functionally induced changes can be better interpreted when OHCs are influenced by fixatives, as shown in the GA experiments.     

Spinal accessory nerve palsy due to neurovascular compression. Report of a case diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance angiography

The case of a young patient with left accessory nerve paralysis is reported. He had slight tilting of the head to the right side, developed over a period of about 6 months. On neurological examination hypotrophy of the left sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles was observed. MRI and MR-angiography imaged the presence of a neurovascular compression between the medulla oblungata, at the level of the nerve entry zone, and a vessel loop of an elongated left vertebral artery. In spite of the absence of a surgical demonstration it is our opinion that the neurovascular conflict is the cause of the accessory nerve palsy.     

Graduated compression stockings in the prevention of deep vein thrombosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction

Venous volume (venous capacity) of the calf is low in patientswith acute myocardial infarction, who also have a high riskof deep vein thrombosis (DVT). The effect of graduated compressionstockings on the venous volume and on the incidence of DVT wastherefore studied in 80 patients aged 70 years and above withacute myocardial infarction. Graduated compression stockingswere randomly fitted to one leg, the other serving as a control,after which the venous volume was measured by strain gauge plethysmography.The incidence of DVT was measured by the ¹²⁵I fibrinogen uptaketest. Venous volume was significantly higher in legs treatedwith graduated compression stockings compared to control legs.DVT developed in eight control legs but not in any leg treatedwith graduated compression stockings (P = 0.003). DVT was alsosignificantly more frequent in women compared to men and themajority of DVT developed in legs with very low venous volumevalues.     

MRI in aqueduct compression and obstructive hydrocephalus due to an ectatic basilar artery

We describe a patient with an ectatic basilar artery in whom MRI showed marked indentation of the floor of the third ventricle and backward displacement of the midbrain, probably causing aqueduct stenosis. It appeared likely that the associated hydrocephalus was due not only to any water-hammer effect, but also to occlusion of the aqueduct.     

Formation of “neo-cortex” in a congenital human teratoma

Summary A congenital human teratoma contained a neuroectodermal mass with architectonic features similar to those of the normal developing neo-cortex. Surrounding a central cavity, a germinal, an intermediate and a cortical zone were clearly distinguishable from innermost to outermost. Glial fibers coursed radially through the intermediate and cortical zones. In the cortical plate neuronal elements were oriented radially with an inside out gradient of differentiation. Mesothelial tissue covered the outer surfaces of the cortex. Over limited sectors a gap in the integrity of the meso-glial barrier were associated with neuroglial ectopias.The following points are of neurobiologic importance: the formation of the miniature cerebral cortex occurred in the absence of any influence of afferent subcortical fibers. The radial alignment of glial fibers between the germinal pseudostratified epithelium and the outer surface occurred only in sectors of the neuro-ectodermal mass where a neo-cortex was present, and may therefore have been a critical determinant in the formation of the cortical plate. The integrity of the outer glial mesenchymal barrier may be necessary for the normal arrangement of cortical neurons.     

Growth plate injury of the long bones in treated β-thalassemia

In 12 patients affected by thalassemia major who received an intensive transfusion regimen combined with continuous iron chelation therapy (desferrioxamine 50–80 mg/kg daily), radiologic abnormalities of the long bones were observed similar to those observed in rickets and scurvy. These abnormalities were associated with a growth retardation. The pathogenesis of these lesions is uncertain, but probably the toxic effect of desferrioxamine plays an important role in their development. A relative deficiency of vitamins D and/or C cannot be entirely excluded.     

关节－干骺端软骨细胞移植修复兔桡骨缺损

目的研究组织工程软骨移植于成年兔桡骨缺损后的生长、分化与转归特点,以及引导性骨再生和骨缺损的修复机制。方法取自一日龄新生兔关节－干骺端复合物的软骨细胞在几丁质纤维网中增殖21d后装入硅胶管内,套接在成年兔桡骨干1cm的缺损处（实验组12只）;对照组10只在缺损处套接空硅胶管,2只仅填入裸几丁质纤维。术后4周两组各处死3只动物取材,其余在术后16周取材。结果实验组术后4周3只动物的工程软骨组织在骨缺损内形成软骨样组织,术后16周9只动物中有2只动物的缺损愈合。对照组术后4周已开始骨愈合,术后16周9只动物的骨缺损全部愈合。结论新生兔关节－干骺端复合物的软骨细胞在成年兔桡骨缺损区（套管内）未肥大钙化,未再现软骨内化骨过程。缺损内的工程软骨可能因占据空间、阻碍成骨成分进入而中断了骨缺损修复过程。引导性骨再生的机制可能是人工膜管加强了骨膜的天然引导作用而促进了骨愈合。     

Tetralogy of Fallot with Absent Pulmonary Valve and Bronchial Compression: Treatment with Endobronchial Stents

Absent pulmonary valve syndrome (APVS) is a rare congenital cardiac lesion. The lesion includes ventricular septal defect, overriding aorta, and absence of the pulmonary valve, with resultant pulmonary incompetence. It has been suggested that the pulmonary incompetence induces intrauterine dilatation of the pulmonary artery, which leads to tracheobronchial compression. One of the presenting features in infants with APVS is severe airway obstruction, which may be difficult to manage. We report an infant who benefited from bilateral endobronchial endoscopic stent placement.
