    Nephropathy in the rabbit associated with immunization to a group a streptococcal Lipoteichoic acid (1979)

    Notes: Abstract Regimental intravenous injections of counter-ion complexes consisting of a group A streptococcal lipoteichoic acid and methylated bovine serum albumin given as a stabilized water-in-oil double emulsion elicited strong antibody responses in rabbits to teichoic acid accompanied by weak to nonexistent humoral responses to the protein; hyperimmunization with these complexes resulted in nephropathy associated with the formation of renal casts, the presence of proteinuria, and kidney swelling. When rabbits were immunized with the complex and then later challenged with soluble, non-complexed and non-immunogenic teichoic acid alone, teichoic acid, antibody, and complement were demonstrable in the glomeruli. This suggested that a humoral immune response directed towards the teichoic acid could lead to a renal dysfunction and that teichoic acid, under certain circumstances, could play some role in immune-dependent pathogenesis.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Il est ajourd'hui possible, grâce à une instrumentation appropriée de réaliser le traitement chirurgical nécessaire immédiatement au décours d'une arthroscopie à visée diagnostique. La chirurgie arthroscopique est devenue une technique de routine dans de nombreux centres du monde entier et, dans la plupart des cas elle est effectuée sur des malades non hospitalisés. La méniscectomie partielle et d'autres opérations nécessitent soit deux, soit trois voies d'accès à l'articulation, ce qui permet une vision triangulaire des instruments au niveau des lésions.
    Notes: Summary With appropriate instrumentation it is now possible to follow a diagnostic arthroscopy with a definitive surgical procedure. Arthroscopic surgery has become an established technique in many centres of the world and in most instances, is done on an out-patient basis. Partial meniscectomy and other operative procedures involve either two or three portals of entry into the joint, with visual triangulation of instruments to the area of the pathology.

    Field testing: Assessment of physical fitness of disabled adults (1983)
    Springer
    European journal of applied physiology 51 (1983), S. 109-120

    Notes: Summary The objectives of this investigation were (i) to develop simple field-test procedures for examining the cardio-respiratory and muscular strength fitness of lower-limb disabled individuals and (ii) to compare fitness levels across disabilities and physical activity levels. Forty-nine disabled adults (42 males and 7 females) were classified according to (i) functional and/or muscular deficit and, (ii) level of habitual physical activity. A forearm ergometer test was used to determine peak oxygen intake ( $$\dot V$$ O2 peak). Sex-specific regression equations developed from the direct test were used in conjunction with a modified åstrand-Ryhming equation to predict $$\dot V$$ O2 peak from sub-maximal test results. Likewise, an equation was developed to predict isokinetic upper body strength (UBS) from cable tensiometry and hand grip force. The predictive power of the sub-maximal ergometer test was fair (r=0.67), while the isometric strength measurements were relatively effective in predicting isokinetic total UBS (r=0.82). Class 1 differed significantly from all other classes with respect to $$\dot V$$ O2 peak and UBS. The more active individuals also achieved significantly higher scores (p〈0.05) for both variables. This study shows that an estimate of peak oxygen intake and UBS can be obtained from simple field tests and that active disabled individuals are more fit than their inactive counterparts.
