253. Spatial structure of high latitude sporadic E

Author

Dudeney, J.R, Rodger, Alan S., Dudeney, J.R, and Rodger, Alan S.

Abstract

Observations of high latitude types of sporadic E, Es, have been made at Halley, Antarctica (76°S, 27°W; L = 4.2) using a modern digital ionosonde with a direction finding capability. It is found that two types of Es, namely auroral and retardation, often exhibit a meridional structure in which the echoing region appears to be poleward of Halley by an amount which increases as the frequency of the probing radio wave increases. The behaviour of these layers is described in comparison with layers of similar appearance which are known to be located overhead. The observations are interpreted in the framework of a model consisting of a low density homogeneous Es layer which has field-aligned enhancements embedded in it. A simple analytical implementation of this model is found to fit the observations well. The meridionally structured layers cannot be distinguished from overhead layers simply by their appearance on ionograms. Thus high latitude Es data obtained from routine scaling of ionograms should be used with caution.

289. Silver(i) carboxylates: versatile inorganic analogs of carboxylic acids for supramolecular network formation

Author

Brammer, Lee, Burgard, Michael D., Rodger, Colin S., Swearingen, John K., and Rath, Nigam P.

Abstract

Dimeric motifs formed by silver(i) carboxylates, illustrated here by the unit Ag2(CF3CO2)2, resemble the well known dimerization of carboxylic acids, i.e. ‘H2(RCO2)2’, but exhibit greater flexibility, while permitting further elaboration into neutral coordination networks through linkage of the silver centres via ditopic ligands.

Abstract

The specification, development and deployment of an automated observatory designed to operate unattended for a year in the extreme climatic conditions of the polar regions is presented. Solar- and wind- powered electric generators are used to charge lead/acid batteries to provide a nominal 100 W of electrical power for operating scientific sensors. The equipment is housed in a highly insulated caboose (3m by 2m by 2m). The temperature in the latter is regulated using a unique thermal control system which utilizes the latent heat of 5001 of waterstored in 25-1 plastic containers. Data are logged to optical disks for collection once per year. The observatory is designed to be air-deployed using a DHC-6 aircraft. The paper discusses the rationale to 1 for designing such automated systems, the operational experience gained from several years of operation, and the application of a network of observatories to solar-terrestrial physics research.

296. Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenocortical Suppression and Recovery in Renal Transplant Patients Returning to Maintenance Dialysis

Author

RODGER, R. S. C., WATSON, M. J., SELLARS, L., WILKINSON, R., WARD, M. K., and KERR, D. N. S.

Abstract

Sixty-six per cent of a group of 21 renal transplant recipients with chronic renal failure were shown to have adrenal suppression due to glucocorticoid treatment. Gradual withdrawal of steroids in these patients returning to maintenance dialysis therapy was achieved with few symptoms of hypoadrenalism. Adrenal recovery occurred in 52 per cent of patients after three months and 71 per cent after six months. However, the plasma cortisol response to insulininduced hypoglycaemia, studied in patients in whom adrenal recovery had been demonstrated, was impaired in 46 per cent of cases. These results indicate that corticosteroids in renal transplant recipients induce profound hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal suppression which is slow to recover. Such patients returning to maintenance dialysis are at risk of acute adrenocortical insufficiency for several months. Although withdrawal of steroids can be achieved safely, cover during periods of stress should be given until the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis has been shown to respond normally.

297. Changing Pattern of Acute Renal Failure

Author

BEAMAN, M., TURNEY, J. H., RODGER, R. S. C., MCGONIGLE, R. S. J., ADU, D., and MICHAEL, J.

Abstract

During the four-year period 1981–1984, 250 patients with severe acute renal failure were treated at one centre. There were seven obstetric cases (2.8 per cent) 118 ‘surgical’ cases (47.2 per cent) and 125 medical cases (50 per cent). This is a different pattern from that seen in the majority of earlier reports. In 60 of the 125 medical patients the aetiology of the acute renal failure could only be determined by renal biopsy. This series suggests that with changing medical practice (particularly the improvement in resuscitation) and an ageing population, the pattern of causes of acute renal failure is altering. It also highlights the value of renal histology as a guide to diagnosis and treatment in patients with unexplained acute renal failure.

Abstract

There are few reported cases of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) arising in kidney allografts. Whether these tumours occur due to post-transplant malignant transformation or are present at the time of transplantation is unclear. The influence of immunosuppression must be considered in their development, progression and treatment. We report a case of a RCC presenting asymptomatically in a functioning live donor renal allograft 173 months after transplantation. In an attempt to avoid return to dialysis treatment, a partial nephrectomy was carried out. To optimise the procedure, and to assure cancer clearance, combined intraoperative ultrasound and frozen section analysis were used. Our patient remains disease free and dialysis independent at 22 months follow up. To our knowledge, this patient represents the only live donor organ transplant tumour reported to be treated using nephron-sparing surgery and remain dialysis independent. Partial nephrectomy should be considered as a treatment option in such cases. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

We report results of a wideband search for periodic gravitational waves from isolated neutron stars within the Orion spur towards both the inner and outer regions of our Galaxy. As gravitational waves interact very weakly with matter, the search is unimpeded by dust and concentrations of stars. One search disk (A) is $6.87^\circ$ in diameter and centered on $20^\textrm{h}10^\textrm{m}54.71^\textrm{s}+33^\circ33'25.29"$, and the other (B) is $7.45^\circ$ in diameter and centered on $8^\textrm{h}35^\textrm{m}20.61^\textrm{s}-46^\circ49'25.151"$. We explored the frequency range of 50-1500 Hz and frequency derivative from $0$ to $-5\times 10^{-9}$ Hz/s. A multi-stage, loosely coherent search program allowed probing more deeply than before in these two regions, while increasing coherence length with every stage. Rigorous followup parameters have winnowed initial coincidence set to only 70 candidates, to be examined manually. None of those 70 candidates proved to be consistent with an isolated gravitational wave emitter, and 95% confidence level upper limits were placed on continuous-wave strain amplitudes. Near $169$ Hz we achieve our lowest 95% CL upper limit on worst-case linearly polarized strain amplitude $h_0$ of $6.3\times 10^{-25}$, while at the high end of our frequency range we achieve a worst-case upper limit of $3.4\times 10^{-24}$ for all polarizations and sky locations., Fixed minor typo - duplicate name in the author list

Abstract

Unlabelled: Echocardiography overestimates left ventricular mass in hemodialysis patients relative to magnetic resonance imaging. Background: Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is a common finding and a strong adverse prognostic factor in patients with chronic renal failure. An accurate method of measuring left ventricular mass (LV mass) is therefore a prerequisite in the management of these patients. Recent evidence has suggested that echocardiography overestimates LV mass in patients with essential hypertension, and this error increases with increasing LV mass. Methods: We studied 35 patients on maintenance hemodialysis within 24 hours of their last dialysis. LV mass was measured by both echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) performed less than three hours apart. Clinic and ambulatory blood pressure (ABPM), resting echocardiogram, and blood sampling were performed at the same visit. Results: Thirty-two patients had results from both methods. Clinic blood pressure, ABPM, and QT dispersion all correlated with LV mass, with a stronger correlation observed for MRI values. Intraobserver and interobserver variability were significantly greater for echocardiography (although similar to other published data). Comparing the two methods, the difference in LV mass values (echo minus magnetic resonance) increased in a linear fashion with an increasing mean mass and chamber diameter. Conclusions: Echocardiography significantly overestimates LV mass relative to MRI in the presence of LVH and dilation. This overestimation is the result of assumptions made in the calculation of mass from echocardiography M-mode images, which are invalid when LV geometry is abnormal. This error is therefore amplified in dialysis patients, the majority of whom have LVH and in whom intravascular volume is constantly changing. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
