Parallel increase in carotid, brachial and left ventricular cross-sectional areas in arterial hypertension

Few data have been published about the relation between the vessels geometry and development of left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy in patients with arterial hypertension. The aim of this study is to describe arterial and LV geometry changes due to mild-to-moderate arterial hypertension in an untreated hypertensive population. In 95 untreated patients with mild-to-moderate hypertension and 23 age- and sex-matched healthy normotensives, we measured the end-diastolic diameter and wall thickness of the left ventricle and the internal diameter and intimal-medial thickness (IMT) of carotid and brachial arteries. From these data, the cross-sectional areas (CSAs) of arterial and myocardial walls were calculated. Hypertensive patients were further subdivided on the basis of the presence of LV hypertrophy defined according to Devereux et al as anatomical LV mass >125 g/m. In hypertensive patients with hypertrophy, carotid and brachial CSAs increased, without significant changes in thickness/diameter ratio (arterial 'enlargement'), while the left ventricle developed 'concentric' hypertrophy. Arterial and LV CSAs showed a significant direct correlation with systolic blood pressure (BP). However, when data were corrected for BP, the correlation between the increase in arterial and LV CSAs became much improved than for the raw data. In conclusion patients with untreated mild-to-moderate hypertension, both carotid and brachial arterial walls showed an enlargement that was proportional to the development of LV hypertrophy. These results suggest that the effects of arterial hypertension on carotid, brachial and LV wall geometry have a common modulation.     

Preparation and properties of poly(L‐lactic acid) scaffolds by thermally induced phase separation from a ternary polymer–solvent system

Poly(L ‐lactic acid) (PLLA) foams for tissue engineering were prepared via thermally induced phase separation of a ternary system PLLA/dioxane/tetrahydrofuran (THF) followed by double solvent exchange (water and ethyl alcohol) and drying. An extension to solidification from solution of a previously developed method for solidification from the melt was adopted. The technique is based on a continuous cooling transformation (CCT) approach, consisting in recording the thermal history experienced by rapidly cooled samples and then analyzing the resulting sample morphology. Different foams were produced by changing the relative amount of dioxane and THF in the starting solution while the amount of polymer was kept constant. Results show that the final morphology and crystallinity (measured by DSC) depend on solvent power, which in its turn was determined by the ratio dioxane/THF, and a minimum of pore size, optimum final crystallinity and crystallization rate were achieved for a system containing 70 % of dioxane. Under this condition, a higher bulk density (evaluated by Hg intrusion porosimetry) and a larger specific surface area (measured by BET N₂ sorption technique) was achieved.

Emulsion copolymerization of vinyl esters in continuous reactors: Comparison between loop and continuous stirred tank reactors

The high solids emulsion copolymerization of vinyl acetate and veova 10 was studied in a continuous loop reactor and in a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) in an attempt to elucidate the similarities and differences between these reactors. Reactions were carried out under comparable conditions, namely, similar macromixing and the same feed composition and space time. The behavior of both reactors was almost the same when the heat generation rate was low; otherwise, thermal runaway occurred in the CSTR whereas the loop reactor temperature was easily controlled. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Survival motor neuron (SMN) protein in rat is expressed as different molecular forms and is developmentally regulated

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by a progressive degeneration of motoneurons in spinal cord and brainstem. The telomeric copy of a duplicated gene termed survival motor neuron (smn), which maps to chromosome 5q13, has been found to be deleted in most patients. The encoded gene product is a novel protein which recently has been shown to accumulate in specific nuclear organelles (gemini of coiled bodies, GEMS), and to play a part in the formation of the spliceosome complex. We have cloned and sequenced the rat smn cDNA. Antibodies generated against an N-terminus peptide recognized a main protein of 32 kDa in immunoblots of rat embryonic tissue extracts. Minor bands of 35 kDa, 45 kDa and, in perinatal muscle, of 24 kDa were also specifically detected, indicating that SMN is expressed as different molecular forms. Subcellular fractionation indicated that the 32 kDa form is mainly soluble, while the 35 kDa and 45 kDa products segregate to the microsomal-mitochondrial fraction. SMN protein is highly regulated during development: expression is high in embryonic tissues (central nervous system, muscle, lung and liver), and then progressively decreases to very low levels in most tissues of the adult. The demonstration of different molecular forms of SMN along with its developmental regulation may help to understand the contribution of this protein in the appearance of SMA phenotype.     

Hot workability of an Al-Mg alloy AA5182 with 1 wt% Cu

A comparative study of the hot workability of two aluminium alloys, alloy AA5182 used for automotive applications and a variant modified with 1 wt% copper, has been carried out. Hot torsion tests were performed on both alloys subjected to two different heat treatments: a low temperature preheat to 450 °C and a high temperature preheat at 540 °C. The results from the torsion experiments are interpreted in terms of microstructural features. Both treatments produce the same strength, but the high temperature preheat leads to better ductility. This improvement is related to the homogenization of solute elements in the matrix; and, concerning AA5182 + Cu, also to the dissolution of a non-equilibrium Al-Mg-Cu ternary eutectic present in the as-cast microstructure. The precipitation of (Fe, Mn)Al₆ precipitates in the matrix of both alloys is induced by the high temperature heat treatment. Comparison of the results obtained by hot torsion shows that at low deformation rates AA5182 + Cu has better ductility than the classical alloy, but its ductility is lower at strain rates above 0.6–0.8 s^–1. The null ductility transition temperature is lower compared with that in the classical alloy, restricting the range of hot working temperatures. Inside this range the strength of both alloys is approximately the same, although the strain rate sensitivity coefficient is increased by copper additions. The experimental strength values follow the classical sinus-hyperbolic constitutive equation for hot working.     

Compensation of Discrete Systems to Variations in Their Parameters

This paper describes a method to obtain an additional compensating input for discrete and time-invariant systems when known changes in their parameters occur. The method uses a quadratic cost function for solving a matrix Riccati equation. The regulated variable is the state error signal between the current system and nominal model which contains all of the information about the desired system behavior.
