Brain dysfunction in social drinkers

Thirty-four social drinkers who had referred themselves to the Regional Brain Damage Unit for assessment of the effects of drinking alcohol were compared with 42 volunteer control subjects of equivalent age but with low alcohol intake, using two 'learning' tests — the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT) and the Austin Button Maze. The Maze Test gave no evidence of disorder, but the two groups were significantly different on the RAVLT. No abnormalities in standard cognitive tests were apparent. These results suggest that a deficit in learning ability may be an early feature of the brain dysfunction associated with excessive alcohol consumption.     

Clinicopathologic features and incidence of invasive lobular carcinoma in Japanese women

Intending to clarify the true Incidence of Invasive lobular carcinoma of the breast In Japanese women as well as the frequency of unilateral multlcentriclty, 362 cases of clinically defined monocentrlc breast cancer without pre-operative biopsy (previously fine needle aspiration or needle biopsy were routinely carried out for every case) were examined by whole mammary gland serial sectioning. On the basis of pathology and the World Health Organization classification of breast tumors, each case was assigned to one of two main histologlc types: Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) or Invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC). Invasive lobular carcinoma was further separated into classic and variant types by employing previously published criteria. Twenty-one cases of ILC (5.8%) were diagnosed, which Is more than In most previous Japanese studies. Unilateral multicentric breast carcinoma was detected In 9.5% of ILC and 16.1% of IDC (the difference was found not significant). Microscopically, ILC tumors were found to be, on average, larger than IDC. Patients with classic type ILC tended to be younger than those with variant type or IDC. Estrogen receptor expression was found more frequently In variant type ILC than in classic type. These results suggest that the incidence of invasive lobular carcinoma of the breast In Japanese women is low and that unilateral multicentricity Is not significantly higher in ILC than in IDC.     

Neural basis of implicit motor sequence learning: Modulation of cortical power

Implicit sequence learning describes the acquisition of serially ordered movements and sequentially structured cognitive information, that occurs without awareness. Theta, alpha and beta cortical oscillations are present during implicit motor sequence learning, but their role in this process is unclear. The current study addressed this gap in the literature. A total of 50 healthy adults aged between 19 and 37 years participated in the study. Implicit motor sequence learning was examined using the Serial Reaction Time task where participants unknowingly repeat a sequence of finger movements in response to a visual stimulus. Sequence learning was examined by comparing reaction times and oscillatory power between sequence trials and a set of control trials comprising random stimulus presentations. Electroencephalography was recorded as participants completed the task. Analyses of the behavioral data revealed participants learnt the sequence. Analyses of oscillatory activity, using permutation testing, revealed sequence learning was associated with a decrease in theta band (4–7 Hz) power recorded over frontal and central electrode sites. Sequence learning effects were not observed in the alpha (7–12 Hz) or beta bands (12–20 Hz). Even though alpha and beta power modulations have long been associated with executing a motor response, it seems theta power is a correlate of sequence learning in the manual domain. Theta power modulations on the serial reaction time task may reflect disengagement of attentional resources, either promoting or occurring as a consequence of implicit motor sequence learning     

Unilateral Multicentric Breast Carcinoma Studied by Whole Mammary Gland Serial Sectioning

The incidence and clinicopathologic features of unilateral multicentric breast cancer (UMBC) were studied by mammary gland serial sectioning in 116 cases of clinically defined monocentric breast cancer (MONBC) examined histopathologically at the Nagano Cancer Detection Center. UMBC was defined as: 1) histopathologically discontinuous tumors each with an intraductal spread, 2) at least one tumor-free section separating two tumors, and 3) a large primary tumor and other small secondary tumors. UMBC was detected in 23 of 116 cases (19.8%), all with one secondary tumor. Primary and secondary tumors were located in the same quadrant in 34.8% and in different ones in 65.2%. The secondary tumors were <5 mm in size in 56.5%. Secondary tumors, averaging 8.3 mm in size and 25.5 mm in distance from the primary tumor, were almost exclusively noninvasive carcinomas, including 15 (65.4%) noninvasive ductal carcinomas and several special types. The primary and secondary tumors were of the same histologic type in 3 of 23 cases. UMBC patients averaged 6 years younger than MONBC patients, and the incidence of UMBC tended to be higher in younger patients (p<0.1). UMBC tended to occur more frequently in quadrant with an average histologie tumor size significantly smaller than that in MONBC (p<0.01). The histologie types of the primary tumor in UMBC and MONBC were similar, with common types predominant. Lymph node metastases tended to be slightly more frequent in MONBC. This high incidence of UMBC calls for careful attention when considering breast conserving therapy.

The role of radiography, computed tomography and bone scanning in prostatic cancer

This report reviews the roles of conventional radiography, computerized axial tomography, and nuclear bone scanning in the diagnosis, staging, follow-up, and management of prostatic cancer. Computed tomography (CT) offers great promise for the better definition of the extent of the primary tumor of prostatic cancer. It contributes positively to the planning of radiation therapy portals in the treatment of localized disease. By means of bipedal lymphangiography and CT scanning, pelvic and periaortic lymphadenopathy may be detected more often than was previously possible without staging pelvic lymphadenectomy, which can be reserved for the discovery of microscopic disease. Soft-tissue metastases that are located deep within the body cavities can now be measured accurately by CT scanning, as can their response to therapy. Skeletal metastases, the most common variety in prostatic cancer, can be detected with a high degree of sensitivity by nuclear bone imaging. Serial bone scans are remarkably useful in following the response of osseous deposits to treatment, as well as in detecting relapsing disease. The management of malignant obstruction of the ureters has been greatly facilitated by the application of angiographic techniques to percutaneous nephrostomy performed under fluoroscopic control.     

Auditory toxicity effects of long-term cis-dichlorodiammineplatinum II therapy in genitourinary cancer patients

To determine the auditory toxicity effects of long-term cis-dichlorodiammineplatinum II therapy, pure tone hearing thresholds were measured prior to therapy and repeated before each subsequent treatment. CDDP was given by a slow intravenous drip method at a low dose of 1 mg/kg body weight, with 37.5 gm mannitol, once a week for six treatments and every 3 weeks thereafter. From a group of 173 genitourinary cancer patients treated, 50 male patients were selected who received at least 12 months of CDDP with no active conductive ear pathology, and whose audiograms obtained at baseline, 6th weeks, 26th weeks, and 52nd weeks of treatment were all available for comparison. Pure tone threshold levels deteriorated across time particularly by the 52nd week and at the higher frequencies. Threshold differences across time were statistically significant and within a linear trend. Of the 50 cases, 30% showed suspect or no ototoxicity, 26% mild, 32% moderate, 2% marked, and 4% showed severe ototoxic changes. Of the two cases who developed severe ototoxicity, one showed complete recovery. There was partial recovery in 26% and no recovery in 54%. Individual variability in susceptibility to and recovery from ototoxicity necessitates systematic audiometric monitoring throughout the therapy.
