Computational dosimetry and treatment planning for boron neutron capture therapy

The longitudinal, expert, all data (LEAD) procedure has been employed as a criterion for the assessment of the procedural validity of diagnostic instruments. This study evaluated the procedure's concurrent, discriminant and predictive validity. Interview and questionnaire data obtained from 100 individuals in a substance abuse treatment program were used to assess current and lifetime substance use disorders and common comorbid disorders. An experienced, doctoral-level clinician formulated LEAD diagnoses for each patient, based on an initial interview, ongoing clinical contact and the results of the research assessment and all available clinical records. LEAD-derived substance use diagnoses showed good concurrent, discriminant and predictive validity. The validity of comorbid diagnoses obtained using the LEAD procedure was generally fair to good. Comparison with diagnoses based only on the clinician's unstructured initial interview showed that the availability of additional data enhanced diagnostic validity. Diagnoses derived by a research technician using the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-III-R showed validity comparable to that of LEAD diagnoses. To enhance its diagnostic validity, applications of the LEAD standard should include a structured interview. Other variations in the application of the LEAD standard, including a longer evaluation period, may also enhance its performance as a diagnostic criterion measure.     

Implementation of a hypertext-based curriculum for emergency medicine on the World Wide Web

This project reports the publication of a variety of existing curricular resources for emergency medicine on the global Internet in a format that allows hypertext links between related material, timely updates, and end-user feedback. Curricular elements were converted to Hypertext Markup Language with extensive links between related content. The completed document contains instructions for curriculum development, specific curricula for subspecialty areas within a residency, reading lists for subspecialty curricula, banks of images, and board-type questions with answers. Users are provided with a mechanism to provide immediate feedback to section editors with suggestions for changes, including new references. Access to all or part of the document can be controlled via passwords, but is potentially available to anyone with an Internet connection and a World Wide Web browser. The document may by viewed on the World Wide Web at: http:@www.brown.edu@Administration@emergency_Medicine@ curr.html.     

Production of the 19-kDa antigen of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Escherichia coli and its purification

The 19-kDa antigen (19Ag) of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mt) is a lipoprotein which is released from the organism during growth. In order to study the possible involvement of this antigen in the host protective response against Mt infection, it would be helpful to obtain high-level production of 19Ag from a recombinant organism. We have found that overexpression of the native 19Ag gene in Escherichia coli or yeast leads to products which are aggregated and insoluble. By site-directed mutagenesis of the 19Ag lipoprotein leader sequence, we have generated a mutant gene which directs the production of 19Ag into the periplasmic space of E. coli, from where it can be easily purified in high yield. 19Ag obtained from this mutant construct lacks the lipid-modified N-terminal Cys residue found in the native 19Ag, and is not glycosylated, but is otherwise indistinguishable from 19Ag isolated from Mt culture supernatant.
