    Notizen: An episode of fever, cough, shortness of breath and leucocytosis developed in a 31-year-old atopic housewife from mould exposure in her home environment is evaluated. A chest radiograph revealed diffuse tiny nodular infiltrations in both whole lung fields. Spirometry revealed a severe restrictive type of ventilation impairment. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) showed an increased lymphocyte count with reversed CD4 +/CD8 + ratio and transbronchial lung biopsy showed markedly increased lymphocytic infiltration in alveolar septa. Fungal cultures in the air of her home were positive for Penicillium expansum and other fungi. Double immunodiffusion test with the patient's serum showed two precipitin bands to P. expansum antigens. Her symptoms, abnormal findings of radiograph, and spirometric abnormalities disappeared after 2 months' avoidance. The serum precipitin disappeared after 1 month's avoidance. This study indicates that the patient had hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) on exposure to P. expansum in her home environment.

    Notizen: Summary Main problem: Although the gonadotropins and testosterone are required for normal spermatogenesis, it is believed that local control factors regulate spermatogenesis. For many years these regulatory factors had not been identified. Over the past five years, a number of growth factors have been identified in testis or isolated testicular cell types or secretions. Growth factors are key regulatory molecules which affect cell proliferation, meiosis, and differentiated function. These factors usually act in an autocrine (acting upon the cell which secreted it) or paracine (affecting another cell) manner and thus are involved in intercellular communications. Methods: Growth factor secretion by testicular cell types or testis tissue has been analyzed using a variety of assays measuring cell proliferation in vitro, as well as assays using immunocytochemicals. Growth factor gene expression in testis has been analyzed by Northern blot analysis and in situ hybridization, which gives information concerning the stage and cell specific expression of the gene. Inbred strains of mice with mutations or deletions in a growth factor gene has been used to suggest the function of two specific factors in testicular development and growth. Results: Among the growth factors expressed or secreted by testicular cell types, most are common to some other cell types in the body, such as transforming growth factors alpha and beta, epidermal growth factor, fibroblast-like growth factors, insulin-like growth factors, interleukins, endorphins, inhibin and activin, while others may be more testis specific such as mullerian inhibiting substance (anti-mullerian hormone) and Sertoli cell secreted growth factor. A variety of proto-oncogenes are expressed at discrete stages of spermatogenesis, as well as by the somatic cells of the testis. Many of these encode growth factors, receptors or other proteins involved in signal transduction. Conclusion: With the exception of the kit ligand and the c-kit proto-oncogene, which have been demonstrated to play a role in the survival of the primordial germ cell in the testis during embryogenesis, little is known of the direct role of the other growth factors in spermatogenesis. It is likely that in the near future that the function of many of these proteins in the regulation of spermatogenesis will be identified. Eventually, this information will be used to develop specific therapies and diagnostic procedures for the infertile male.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Résumé Nombre de travaux ont été effectués récemment afin d'expliquer l'évolution vers l'arthrose après méniscectomie. Les modifications mécaniques entraînant une concentration des contraintes sont considérées comme une des causes majeures. Mais il n'y a que peu d'études expérimentales concernant les différences de pression sur la surface de contact et le type de distribution des contraintes après méniscectomie partielle ou totale. En utilisant un film sensible à la pression (Pressensor) nous avons pu mesurer la surface de contact et son type de distribution dans les trois situations: ménisque intact, méniscectomie partielle et méniscectomie totale. Le matériel d'expérimentation consistait en cinq pièces d'amputation de cuisse. Pendant l'expérimentation le genou était placé en extension complète et fixé à la machine Instrom par une barre d'aluminium et une monture de résine. La charge était transmise par la machine à l'articulation fémoro-tibiale et au film Pressensor pré-inséré, dans les limites physiologiques. L'analyse de la surface de contact dans les trois situations a été permise par l'examen du film. En mesurant la surface de contact après méniscectomie nous avons montré que la fonction du ménisque est d'assurer la transmission des charges et l'absorption d'énergie dans le genou. La comparaison de la surface de contact interne de l'articulation avec la surface de contact externe montre que, lorsque le ménisque est intact, la première est toujours plus étendue que la seconde (le rapport est de 1.36). La différence diminue légérement en cas de méniscectomie partielle et beaucoup plus après méniscectomie totale. Le degré de concentration des contraintes augmente selon que le ménisque est intact, partiellement ou totalement réséqué. Il n'y a que de minimes modifications de la surface de contact du côté opposé de l'articulation après méniscectomie partielle, mais elles sont importantes après méniscectomie totale.
    Notizen: Summary Many investigators have attempted to find the cause of the osteoarthritic changes after meniscectomy. Alteration of the mechanical factors resulting in stress concentration, is now thought to be one of the most important causes but few experimental studies have reported the differences in contact area and pressure distribution after partial or total meniscectomy. By using pressure sensitive film, we have calculated the contact area and the pattern of weight distribution in three different situations; intact meniscus, partial and total meniscectomy. The experimental materials were obtained from 5 above knee amputation specimens. The knee joint was fixed in full extension to an Instron machine using an aluminium box and mounting resin. Load was transmitted to the tibiofemoral joint containing the special film, within a physiological range. Analysis of the contact area for each situation (intact meniscus, partial and total meniscectomy) was made by reviewing the film, By measuring the contact area after meniscectomy, we showed that the meniscus performs a load transmitting function in the knee joint. The medial contact area of the tibiofemoral joint with an intact meniscus is always larger than the lateral compartment (1.36:1), but in partial and total meniscectomy the difference between them gradually decreased. There was a minor decrease in contact area after partial meniscectomy and a much greater decrease after total meniscectomy. The degree of stress concentration in the contact area was increased when part or all the meniscus was excised. There was little change of contact area in the opposite, intact side of the joint after partial meniscectomy, but marked change after total meniscectomy.

    Notizen: The present paper proposes “Deformation Characteristics” (DC) as a new deformation measure of screw extrusion processes, based on the Green deformation tensor. In contrast to previous strain measures heuristically proposed by Mohr, et al., Mckelvey, and Pinto and Tadmor, the new DC can naturally incorporate the demixing phenomena and systematically take into account the three-dimensional circulatory flow with the screw flight effect. Therefore, DC can be regarded as an improved strain measure. “Weighted Average Deformation characteristics” (WADC) is also proposed to indicate the overall deformation characteristics as a quantitative measure to the “goodness of mixing” of the extrusion process. The present paper includes discussion on delicate differences between DC and several other strain measures in case of the two-dimensional velocity approximation, and on the application of DC into a general three-dimensional velocity field obtained by a quasi-three-dimensional finite element analysis of extrusion processes. In determining WADC in the three-dimensional application, the residence time distribution function, including the three-dimensional circulatory flow effect, is used.
