Depriving neonatal rats of milk from early lactation has long-term consequences on mammotrope development

The sudden appearance of prolactin-releasing cells during the early postnatal period of the rat is initiated by a small milk-borne peptide. Depriving newborn rats of this early milk factor severely retards mammotrope differentiation during the neonatal period. In the present work, we extend our study of early milk deprivation to the adult. To this end, newborn litters were crossfostered onto mothers that had given birth the same day or one week earlier in order to deprive pups in the latter group of early milk. At 5, 15, and 30 d of age, rats deprived of such milk had decreased percentages of mammotropes (as measured by reverse hemolytic plaque assay, RHPA) when compared to nondeprived animals (P<0.05). By 45 d, the percentage of mammotropes was similar for the two crossfostered groups (P>0.1) and this persisted through d 60. Subsequently, we assessed the secretory capacity of mammotropes from 60-d old rats to secretagogues and found that early milk deprivation had no effect on basal prolactin release (P>0.1), but that it augmented hormone secretion evoked by thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH, 100 nM; P<0.01). The inhibitory response to dopamine (DA; 1 μM) and the stimulatory response to angiotensin II (AGII; 100 nM) were not altered by early milk deprivation (P>0.1). Taken together, these results demonstrate that factors in milk from early lactation are required for normal mammotrope differentiation, and that the delay induced by early milk deprivation leads to altered secretory function of mammotropes in adult animals.     

Transesophageal Echocardiographic Analysis of the Systolic Pattern of the Anterior Mitral Leaflet in Patients with Flat Chest

Transesophageal echocardiography was conducted to determine the systolic pattern of the anterior mitral leaflet in patients with flat chest, and to differentiate it from that associated with mitral valve prolapse. The fronto-sagittal index (an index of chest flattening) was determined in 50 subjects using chest radiographs, and was used to classify them into a flat chest group (index < 0.38, n = 28) and a normal chest group (index ≥ 0.38, n = 22). We then used transesophageal echocardiography to examine the anterior leaflet in these subjects. A significant positive correlation was observed between the fronto-sagittal index and the short-to long-axis diameter ratio of the left ventricle in all patients. These parameters, and the left atrial dimension were lower in the flat than the normal chest group. The clear zone area of the anterior leaflet during mid-to late-systole was significantly larger in the flat chest group. However, no intergroup differences existed in the rough zone area of the anterior leaflet or in the middle scallop area of the posterior leaflet. Mitral regurgitation was observed in 20 and 12 subjects in the flat and normal chest groups, respectively. The maximum mitral regurgitant area did not differ between the two groups. The clear zone area of the anterior leaflet increased significantly following inhalation of amyl nitrite in 22 subjects of both groups, but the other areas did not increase. The mitral regurgitant area decreased or disappeared after amyl nitrite at a similar rate in each group. Thus, the decrease in the antero-posterior dimension of the thorax in subjects with flat chest affects the systolic pattern of the clear zone of the anterior leaflet more than that of the rough zone of the anterior leaflet or the posterior leaflet. This systolic pattern in such patients differs from that associated with mitral valve prolapse.     

Does a tensioning device pinned to the tibia improve knee anterior–posterior load‐displacement compared to manual tensioning of the graft following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction? A cadaveric study of two tibial fixation devices

Devices that are pinned to the tibia to tension an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) graft produce joint reaction loads that in turn can affect the maintenance of graft initial tension after tibial fixation and hence knee anterior-posterior (AP) load-displacement. However, the effect of these devices on AP load-displacement is unknown. Our objectives were to determine whether tensioning by device versus tensioning by hand causes differences in AP load-displacement and intraarticular graft tension for two commonly used tibial fixation devices: a bioresorbable interference screw and a WasherLoc. AP load-displacement and intraarticular graft tension were measured in 20 cadaveric knees using a custom arthrometer. An initial tension of 110 N was applied to a double-looped tendon graft with the knee at extension using a tensioning device pinned to the tibia and a simulated method of tensioning by hand. After inserting the tibial fixation device, the 134 N anterior limit (i.e., anterior position of the tibia with respect to the femur with a 134 N anterior force applied to the tibia) and 0 N posterior limit (i.e., AP position of the tibia relative to the femur with a 0 N force applied to the tibia) were measured with the knee in 25 degrees flexion. Intraarticular graft tension was measured at extension. These limits and intraarticular graft tension were also measured after cyclically loading the knee 300 times. Compared to a simulated method of tensioning by hand, tensioning with a device pinned to the tibia did not decrease the 134 N anterior limit and did not cause posterior tibial translation. However, intraarticular graft tension was maintained better with a tensioning device pinned to the tibia for the Washerloc, but not the interference screw. For two commonly used tibial fixation devices, a tensioning device pinned to the tibia does not improve AP load-displacement at 25 degrees flexion over tensioning by hand when the graft is tensioned at full extension, but does improve the maintenance of intraarticular graft tension for the Washerloc.

Plain radiographic findings in anterior cruciate ligament injury and repair

Although magnetic resonance imaging is the most accurate imaging method of evaluating the anterior cruciate ligament, several plain radiographic signs suggestive of anterior cruciate ligament injury have been described. Plain radiographs also play an important role in evaluating anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.     

Transfer of lumbosacral load to iliac bones and legs Part 1: Biomechanics of self-bracing of the sacroiliac joints and its significance for treatment and exercise

This study deals primarily with the stability of the base of the spine. The sacroiliac joints are vulnerable to shear loading on account of their predominantly flat surfaces. This raises the question of what mechanisms are brought into action to prevent dislocation of the sacroiliac joints when they are loaded by the weight of the upper part of the body and by trunk muscle forces. First a model is introduced to compare load transfer in joints with spherical and with flat joint surfaces. Next we consider a biomechanical model for the equilibrium of the sacrum under load, describing a self-bracing effect that protects the sacroiliac joints against shear according to ‘the sacroiliac joint compression theory’, which has been demonstrated in vitro. The model shows joint stability by the application of bending moments and the configuration of the pelvic arch. The model includes a large number of muscles (e.g. the gluteus maximus and piriformis muscles), ligaments (e.g. the sacrotuberous, sacrospinal, and dorsal and interosseous sacroiliac ligaments) as well as the coarse texture and the ridges and grooves of the joint surfaces.     

Development of the rat thalamus: II. Time and site of origin and settling pattern of neurons derived from the anterior lobule of the thalamic neuroepithelium

Short-survival, sequential, and long-survival thymidine radiograms of rat embryos, fetuses, and young pups were analyzed in order to examine the time of origin, settling pattern, and neuroepithelial site of origin of the anterior thalamic nuclei--the lateral dorsal (lateral anterior), anterodorsal, anteroventral and anteromedial nuclei--and of two rostral midline structures--the anterior paraventricular and paratenial nuclei. The neurons of the lateral dorsal nucleus are generated over a 3-day period between days E14-E16 and their settling pattern displays a combined lateral-to-medial and dorsal-to-ventral neurogenetic gradient. The bulk of the neurons of the anteroventral nucleus are generated over a 3-day period between days E15-E17 and settle with an oblique lateral-to-medial and ventral-to-dorsal neurogenetic gradient. The bulk of the neurons of the anteromedial nucleus are generated over a 2-day period between days E16-E17 and show the same settling pattern as the anteroventral nucleus. The neurons of the anterodorsal nucleus are generated over a 3-day period between days E15-E17 and show a lateral-to-medial neurogenetic gradient. The bulk of the neurons of the central part and lateral part of the paraventricular nucleus are generated over a 2-day period (E16-E17 and E17-E18, respectively) and each part displays a ventral-to-dorsal neurogenetic gradient. Finally, the bulk of the neurons of the paratenial nucleus are generated over a 4-day period between days E15-E18 and settle with a lateral-to-medial neurogenetic gradient. Observations are presented that the anterior thalamic nuclei, constituting the distinct "limbic thalamus," derive from a discrete neuroepithelial source. This is the crescent-shaped germinal matrix lining the diencephalic (medial) wall of the hitherto unrecognized anterior transitional promontory, which we call the anterior thalamic neuroepithelial lobule. On day E16 three migratory streams leave the anterior neuroepithelial lobule and, on the basis of their labeling pattern in relation to the neurogenetic gradients of the anterior thalamic nuclei, they are identified, from dorsal to ventral, as the putative migratory streams of the anterodorsal, anteroventral, and lateral dorsal nuclei. On day E17 the putative migratory stream of the anteromedial nucleus appears to leave the same neuroepithelial region that on the previous days was the source of the anteroventral nucleus. Dorsally, two neuroepithelial patches persist after day E17 and these are identified as the putative cell lines of the anterior paraventricular and paratenial nuclei.
