Validation of impedance cardiography measurements of cardiac output during limited exercise in heart transplant recipients

Abstract. Twenty-one patients were studied at rest and during exercise after heart transplantation to compare cardiac output measured by thermodilution and impedance cardiography. Exercise was performed on a bicycle ergometer over a limited range of work load (25 and 50 watt) whilst metabolic gas exchange was recorded. One patient was studied at rest whilst his circulation was maintained by a Jarvik-7 artificial heart. The values of cardiac output measured by impedance cardiography corresponded closely with the flow rate from the artificial heart. There was also close agreement between the impedance and thermodilution measurements of cardiac output at rest and during exercise. Both measurements followed the changes in heart rate and oxygen consumption. Both thermodilution and impedance cardiography methods elicited good reproducibility of cardiac output measurements at rest and during exercise. These observations suggest that the noninvasive and continuous record of cardiac output obtained by impedance cardiography can be used for the postoperative monitoring of heart transplant recipients.     

Patterns of eye care use and expenditures among children with diagnosed eye conditions.

PURPOSE: Little is known about use and expenditure patterns of children's eye-care services and about possible disparities in care among children. This report describes the use and expenditure patterns of eye care and non-eye care services for children under 18 years old in the United States. METHODS: Levels of use and expenditure were estimated using self-reported information from the nationally representative Medical Expenditure Panel Surveys (1996-2001) for 48,304 subjects under 18 years old from randomly selected households in the United States. Means presented for children with and without diagnosed eye conditions were adjusted for child and family characteristics using generalized linear models. RESULTS: Children with diagnosed eye conditions had higher levels of use and expenditure than children without diagnosed conditions. Families of children with diagnosed eye conditions incurred higher out-of-pocket expenditures. Black children and children living below 400% of the federal poverty level had lower levels of use and expenditure, indicating that they received fewer and less intensive services. CONCLUSIONS: Children with diagnosed eye conditions experienced higher overall use of health care. Some groups of children appear to be underserved. Estimates of use and expenditure patterns, stratified by socioeconomic factors, will be needed to plan for future delivery of children's eye and vision care services and to assess progress toward Healthy People 2010 goals.     

Synthetic/secreting and apoptotic phenotypes in renal biopsy tissues from hypertensive nephrosclerosis patients.

The major glomerular abnormalities in hypertensive nephrosclerosis are described as glomerular obsolescence (GO), glomerulosclerosis (GS), and glomerular collapse (GC). However, glomerular cellular changes caused by hypertensive insults have not been well analyzed. Using an immunoenzyme method, we examined eleven biopsy samples from patients with hypertensive nephrosclerosis for two synthetic and secreting phenotypes, a-smooth muscle actin (alpha-SMA) and collagen type III (Col. III), and two apoptotic phenotypes, pro-apoptotic molecule Bax and anti-apoptotic molecule BcI-2. Together with the glomerular and vascular changes and interstitial fibrosis (IF) area, the results were scored quantitatively and semi-quantitatively and compared to the clinical findings, which included systolic blood pressure (SBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP), serum creatinine levels (sCr) and creatinine clearance (Ccr), using univariate and multivariate analyses. As a result, GS was frequently observed in the mild-to-moderate hypertensive group (140 < or = SBP<180 mmHg), whereas GC was positively correlated with SBP. Furthermore, there was a positive correlation of GS with mesangial alpha-SMA and Col. III, suggesting that GS was the reflection of these synthetic and secreting phenotypic changes in mesangial cells. Endothelial Bax was positively correlated with Ccr (p<0.01); in contrast, podocytic Bax was positively correlated with sCr (p<0.05) and showed a tendency to correlate with MAP (p=0.054). In conclusion, these findings support the view that mesangial synthetic and secreting phenotypic changes may be a reflection of cellular activation caused by mild-to-moderate hypertension and that apoptotic phenotypic expression in podocytes, rather than endothelial cells, may be related to the development of a severe form of hypertensive nephrosclerosis.     

Quantitative evaluation of adhesive properties and drug-adhesive interactions for transdermal drug delivery formulations using linear solvation energy relationships.

This paper describes the results of the application of linear solvation energy relationships (LSERs) to quantitatively characterize the properties of adhesives and to evaluate the degree of drug-adhesive interaction in transdermal drug delivery formulations. Probe solutions were prepared in acetonitrile (ACN) for a set of probe compounds with different physicochemical properties, and were used to swell the adhesives for subsequent probe molecule-adhesive interactions. The degree of the interactions was measured by the 'sorbed' amount of probe molecules. Based on LSERs, the 'sorbed' amounts were linearly correlated with their properties. The corresponding coefficients reflect the differential interactions of these molecules with the adhesive and ACN, and are quantitative indications of the adhesive properties. Two different transdermal acrylate adhesives (isooctyl acrylate/acrylamide/vinyl acetate in the weight ratios of 75/5/20 and isooctyl acrylate/2-hydroxyethyl acrylate/vinyl acetate in the weight ratios of 58/20/18) were selected for the evaluation of the methodology. It is concluded that the first adhesive is more basic and hydrophobic, which is consistent with the use of acrylamide monomer and significant amount of isooctyl acrylate. The second adhesive is more acidic and polarizable due to a relatively high amount of the 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate. Additionally, the 'sorbed' amount can be regarded as an interaction parameter or index between a drug molecule and the adhesive. Finally, this parameter is expected to correlate with the thermodynamic properties of transdermal formulations such as drug solubility, diffusion coefficient, release rate, and maybe skin permeation rate.

Adsorption of serum fetuin to hydroxylapatite does not contribute to osteoblast phenotype modifications

Osteoblasts exhibit enhanced differentiation and altered gene profiles when cultured on hydroxyapatite (HA) compared to plastic surfaces. To begin determining mechanisms for this response, we used proteomics to identify proteins predominantly found in osteoblasts on HA but not plastic surfaces. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and Western analyses indicate that fetuin is abundant in extracts from HA, but not plastic surfaces. Incubation of HA and plastic surfaces with cell culture medium (containing 10% serum) under cell-free conditions shows that fetuin is predominantly derived from the culture medium serum and readily adsorbs to the HA surface. However, we did detect low levels of fetuin B mRNA in osteoblasts. Serum albumin, actin-beta, apolipoprotein-AI, and vimentin also adsorbed to HA. To determine the role of fetuin in the HA-induced osteoblast phenotype changes, osteoblasts were seeded onto fetuin-coated or uncoated HA under serum-free conditions. Osteoblast morphology was similar on both HA surfaces, suggesting that HA alone (without adsorbed serum proteins) is sufficient for cell attachment and spreading. Similarly, genes previously reported to be modulated by HA (glvr-1, DMP-1, osteoglycin, and proliferin 3) were modulated even in the absence of fetuin or other serum proteins. These data show that HA surface can be enriched selectively with fetuin from serum; however, neither fetuin or other serum proteins are required to mediate HA-induced osteoblast attachment, spreading, or changes in expression of genes examined. This finding suggests that factors intrinsic to HA are required for the response.     

Inhibitory effect of antiserum to surface antigen P50 of Babesia gibsoni on growth of parasites in severe combined immunodeficiency mice given canine red blood cells

The inhibitory effect of an antiserum to surface protein P50 of Babesia gibsoni on the growth of the parasite was determined with severe combined immunodeficiency mice given canine red blood cells. The antiserum to the recombinant P50 protein significantly inhibited the parasite growth, indicating that P50 might be a useful vaccine candidate.
