Characteristics of drowning deaths in an inner city river

A study was undertaken of all drowning deaths that occurred over a 30-year period from 1988 to 2017 in the urban section of the River Torrens, Adelaide, South Australia, an augmented waterway that runs through the central business district. Autopsy records from Forensic Science South Australia (FSSA) were reviewed. There were 34 drownings (0–5 cases/yr) with 28 males and 6 females (M;F = 4.6:1), with an age range for males of 18-76yrs (mean 42.0; SD 18.0) and for females of 20-84yrs (mean 69.3; SD 24.5). There were 15 (44%) accidents, 11 (32%) suicides, 1 (3%) homicide and 7 (21%) undetermined. Of the 22 cases during or after 1994 with complete toxicology reports, 10 (45%) had a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of greater than 0.05% (g/100 mL) with an illicit substance detected in 4 (18%) cases: (MDMA (3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine), methylamphetamine and THC (delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol) acid). The presence of various therapeutic drugs was also detected in 10 cases (45%) including temazepam, fluoxetine, diazepam, olanzapine, amitriptyline, carbamazepine, codeine, citalopram and valproate. Although the numbers of cases were not high, the urban portion of the River Torrens had a much higher number of drowning events per kilometre compared to other inland waterways in South Australia such as the Murray River. This is most likely due to the vulnerability that exists for intoxicated individuals in the city from falls into the water and to the availability of the river as a means of suicide to members of the adjacent urban population.     

Correction of frequency and phase variations induced by eddy currents in localized spectroscopy with multiple echo times.

As a consequence of the time-varying magnetic field induced by eddy currents, frequency drifting occurs when the sampling window of localized spectroscopy continuously shifts. The frequency drifting and the concomitant phase variations can severely affect spectroscopy results when data are acquired with multiple echo times (TEs), such as in the measurement of glutamate (Glu) concentration using the TE-averaged method. Specifically, the averaged spectra are further broadened and distorted in the presence of residual eddy currents, and editing of the coupled spins of Glu C4 protons is affected, resulting in errors in the measured relative intensity ratio. Postacquisition correction using unsuppressed water as reference can effectively minimize this detrimental effect, as manifested by the significantly enhanced signal intensity. Also, it is demonstrated that the methyl signals of creatine (Cr) at 3.0 ppm and choline (Cho) at 3.2 ppm can be used as internal references in finding frequency and phase disparities between different TEs.     

3种霍乱弧菌检测方法在外环境标本中的应用研究

目的：通过改进霍乱弧菌检测的技术手段，提高外环境标本中霍乱弧菌的检出率。方法：将常规分离鉴定法、PCR检测法和胶体金免疫层析试验法同时用于检测霍乱流行期间的外环境标本，并对其现场应用结果进行比较分析。结果：3种方法检测80份外环境标本霍乱弧菌的结果显示：它们均未出现假阳性，3种方法各有优势，且结果相互符合性好，但也存在各自弱点。结论：只用单一种方法来检测外环境标本霍乱弧菌存在明显不足。建议在外环境霍乱监测中选用胶体金法进行初筛，再用常规法和PCR法检测。最大限度减少漏检的可能性。     

Responses of CDKs and p53 in Delayed Ischemic Neuronal Death

Stroke is a debilitating disease that affects millions each year.While in many cases cerebral ischemic in jury can be limited by effectivw resuscitation or thrombolytic treatment,the injured neurons wither in a process known as delayed neuronal death(DND).Mounting evidence indicates that DND is not simply necrosis played out in slow motion but apoptosis is triggered.Of particular interest are two groups of signal proteins that participate in apoptosis-cyclin dependent kinases(CDKs) and p53-among a myriad of signaling events after an ischemic insult.Recent investigations have shown that CDKs,a family of enzymes initially known for their role in cell cycle regulation,are activated in injured neurons in DND.As for p53,new reports suggest that its up-regulation may represent a failed attempt to rescue in jured neurons,although its up-regulation was previously considered an indication of apoptosis.These observations thus rekindle an old quest to identify new neuroprotective targets to minimize the stroke damage.In this review,the author will examine the evidence that indicates the participation of CDKs and p53 in DND and then introduce pre-clinical data to explore CDK inhibition as a potential neuroprotective target.Finally,using CDK inhibition as an example,this paper will discuss the pertinent criteria for a viable neuroprotective strategy for ischemic in jury.     

常用消毒剂及自来水对弓形虫速殖子活力的影响

目的了解常用消毒剂及自来水对弓形虫速殖子活力的影响。方法将各种消毒剂分别加入等体积含弓形虫速殖子的小鼠腹水中，在不同时间内观察虫体胎盘蓝（trypanblue）着色率及活动率，并将经消毒剂处理不同时间的速殖予接种昆明鼠，观察速殖子能否在接种鼠体内复苏繁殖，导致小鼠死亡。用类似方法观察自来水时速殖子的影响。结果除甲醛个速殖子在常用浓度的不同消毒剂中，lmin月台盘蓝着色率均为100％，活动率为0。经消毒剂处理1min的速殖子接种小鼠后，各组接种鼠（包括甲醛处理组）无一死亡。经自来水处理4h的速殖子接种小鼠后仍能在小鼠体内复苏繁殖，小鼠于接种1wk内全部死亡。结论弓形虫速殖子对常用消毒剂均很敏感；而在自来水中途殖子可保持感染力4h以上。     

鄂托克前旗马场井村改水降氟15年病情防治效果分析

目的：了解改水降氟后地氟病的防治效果。方法：水氟，尿氟测定均为电极法，氟斑牙诊断为Dean‘s法。结果：该村自1985年改饮低氟水，水氟含量由改水前的6.05mg/L降至改水后的0.48mg/L。改水后未出现新的氟骨症患者，8-12岁儿童氟斑牙患病率呈逐年下降趋势，改水后7-15年间氟斑牙病率均已稳定，表明病情得到有效控制，且达到稳定控制状态，结论：坚持长年饮用低氟水，地方性氟中毒就能得到有效控制。     

Long-term neurotoxicity of chlorpyrifos: spatial learning impairment on repeated acquisition in a water maze.

Organophosphate compounds are cholinesterase inhibitors widely used in agriculture, industry, household products, and even as chemical weapons. Their major mechanism of acute toxic action is the inhibition of acetylcholinesterase, which is responsible for the degradation of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. An organophosphorus ester-induced chronic neurotoxicity (OPICN) syndrome has been proposed. The OPICN syndrome could result from both long-term exposure to subclinical doses of OPs and after acute poisoning. Development of animal models for the cognitive decline are required and could later help to elucidate the mechanisms involved in this long-term effect on the central nervous system. Previously, we have found performance decrements in a four-trial repeated acquisition spatial task in a water maze. The present study includes two experiments to extend the long-term behavioral effects observed. Rats were injected either once or twice with chlorpyrifos (CPF) and then tested months after in a two-trial repeated acquisition task in a water maze. Our results confirm and extend the long-term behavioral effects of subcutaneous administration of CPF. The two treatments used produced performance decrements that suggest functional central nervous system alterations.
