    Notes: Abstract A total of 194 patients was reviewed after ACL reconstruction using a patellar tendon graft or Leeds-Keio prosthesis supplemented with a MacIntosh lateral substitution. There were five groups of patients: patellar tendon with cast immobilisation in flexion (n=34); restricted extension but no cast (n=40); immediate full extension (n=40); immediate full extension with notch widening (n=40); Leeds-Keio ligament prosthesis (n=40). The incidence of a click or a block to extension requiring operation ranged from 59% following cast immobilisation to 2.5% with the Leeds-Keio ligament. The incidence was significantly less when a Leeds-Keio prosthesis was used, and these problems may be associated with biological materials only. Restricting extension after operation significantly increased the loss of extension, confirming the work of others. Loss of extension was due to a mechanical block in all cases examined arthroscopically. All were relieved by arthroscopic surgery, and no case of flexion contracture or arthrofibrosis was encountered. A simple mechanical block to extension caused by a Cyclops lesion should be clearly distinguished from flexion contracture and arthrofibrosis, conditions which are probably extremely rare and overdiagnosed.

    Factors affecting aluminium sorption by calcium pectate (1993)

    Notes: Abstract Extracellular processes, particularly the adsorption of aluminium (Al) by pectate in the cell wall, have been proposed as important in the expression of Al toxicity to plant roots. In vitro studies were conducted on the effects of Al concentration (generally ≤ 32 μM), calcium (Ca) concentration (0.05 to 10 mM) and pH (3.2 to 5.4) on Al sorption by Ca pectate. There was a rapid reaction between Al and Ca pectate, there being no difference in Al remaining in solution after reaction times of 1 to 16 min, and only a slight decrease after 24 h. Increased Al concentration in solution increased linearly the sorption of Al by Ca pectate, with 70 to 84% of the Al originally in solution sorbed with ≤32 μM Al. In contrast, Al sorption decreased with increased Ca concentration in solution, and as pH decreased from 5.4 to 3.2. Only ≤30% of the sorbed Al was desorbed after 1 h by 1 mM CaCl2, 10 mM CaCl2 or 1 mM HCl. The amount of Al desorbed increased with a desorption period of 5 h, particularly with 1 mM HCl. These studies suggest that Al sorbed by Ca pectate in root cell walls is in equilibrium with Al in solution, and that Al toxicity is associated with the strong binding between Al and Ca pectate external to the cytoplasm.

    Notes: Abstract While considerable information has been presented recently on the alleviating effects of calcium (Ca) on aluminium (Al) toxicity, the interaction between Ca and Al on nodulation and N2-fixation of legumes is little understood. A 28 d solution culture experiment using groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) cv. Matjam was conducted to evaluate the effects of four Ca concentrations and four Al levels on nodule development, N2-fixation and plant growth. The Ca concentrations were maintained at 500, 1000, 2500 or 5000 μM, and the sum of activities of monomeric Al species (ΣaAlmono) were 0, 15, 30 and 60 μM. With ΣaAlmono≥30 μM in solution, the time to appearance of the first nodule increased, and, with 60 μM ΣaAlmono in solution, plants remained chlorotic throughout the experiment. Activities≥30 μM reduced nodule number and nodule dry mass per plant, particularly with high (5000 μM) Ca in solution. Also, plant top growth was decreased at ΣaAlmono≥30 μM; the effect only being alleviated by 1000 μM Ca at 30 μM ΣaAlmono. The Ca concentration in the youngest expanded leaf (YEL) increased with increased Ca concentration in solution, but was little affected by Al treatment. Nitrogen concentrations mirrored treatment effects on nodule number and nodule dry mass; Al in solution decreased the N concentration particularly with 5000 μM Ca in solution. Furthermore, increased Ca and Al in solution decreased the Mg concentration in the YEL. This suggested that the absence of any alleviating effect of Ca and Al toxicity (indeed the opposite effect was often observed) resulted from interference in Mg nutrition.

    Initiation of thermal convection in finite right circular cylinders (1970)

    Notes: Linear perturbation analyses are extended to determine the lowest Rayleigh number at which convection initiates in a vertical cylinder heated on the bottom and cooled on the top. The critical Rayleigh number for the first mode of convection in a right circular cylinder with a perfectly conducting wall is shown to be three times larger than that in such a cell with a perfectly adiabatic side wall. An adjusted wave number is shown to make the results of Pellew and Southwell applicable to the adiabatic wall in a manner similar to that used by Pnueli and Ostrach for the perfectly conducting side wall. The results are compared with experiment and are in very good agreement.

    Notes: The fatigue resistance of 6 inch Schedule 40 PVC solvent-bonded pipe fittings was investigated. It has often been assumed that the performance of PVC fittings is comparable to that of the corresponding pipe. The results of this study indicate that the fatigue performance of PVC fittings is much lower than that of the pipe. Several fittings were exposed to a repetitive surge cycle of 90 to 180 psig at a rate of 0.111 hertz. Failures of several tees occurred between 13,000 and 16,000 cycles, much sooner than the predicted lifetime of pipe under these conditions.
