Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVE This study aimed to develop a cosmesis scale to evaluate the cosmetic appearance of hemodialysis (HD) arteriovenous (AV) accesses from the perspective of the patient and clinician, which could be incorporated into clinical trials. STUDY DESIGN Using a modified Delphi process, two AV access cosmesis scale (AVACS) components were developed in a four-round Delphi panel consisting of two surveys and two consensus meetings with two rounds of patient consultation. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS The Delphi panel consisted of 15 voting members including five interventional or general nephrologists, five vascular surgeons, three interventional radiologists, and two vascular access nurse coordinators. Four patients experienced with vascular access were involved in patient question development. ANALYTICAL APPROACH For a component to be included in the AVACS, it had to meet the prespecified panel consensus agreement of ⩾70%. RESULTS The clinician component of the AVACS includes nine questions on the following AV access features: scarring, skin discoloration, aneurysm/pseudoaneurysms and megafistula appearance. The patient component includes six questions about future vascular access decisions, interference with work or leisure activities, clothing choices, self-consciousness or attractiveness, emotional impact, and overall appearance. LIMITATIONS Delphi panel methods are subjective by design, but with expert clinical opinion are used to develop classification systems and outcome measures. The developed scale requires further validation testing but is available for clinical trial use. CONCLUSIONS While safety and efficacy are the primary concerns when evaluating AV access for HD, cosmesis is an important component of the ESKD patient experience. The AVACS has been designed to assess this important domain; it can be used to facilitate patient care and education about vascular access choice and maintenance. AVACS can also be used to inform future research on developing new techniques for AV access creation and maintenance, particularly as relates to AV access cosmesis.

Abstract
Purpose Percutaneous ablation techniques, including microwave ablation (MWA) and radiofrequency ablation (RFA), have become important minimally invasive treatment options for liver cancer. This systematic review compared MWA with RFA for treatment of liver cancer. Methods The systematic review and meta-analysis followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. A systematic search of MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials was conducted for randomized and observational studies published from 2006 onwards. A random-effects model was used for meta-analyses and local tumor progression (LTP), technique efficacy, overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), intrahepatic de novo lesions (IDL), extrahepatic metastases (EHM), length of stay (LOS), and complications were analyzed. Subgroup and sensitivity analyses were also conducted. Results Of 1379 studies identified, 28 randomized and observational studies met inclusion criteria. The main analysis demonstrated that LTP was significantly reduced by 30% with MWA versus RFA (RR=0.70; P=0.02) (all studies) and by 45% with MWA versus RFA (RR=0.55; P=0.007) (randomized studies only). There were no significant differences between MWA and RFA for other efficacy and safety outcomes. Higher frequency (2450 MHz) and larger tumor size (≥2.5 cm) are amongst variables that may be associated with improved outcomes for MWA. Sensitivity analyses were generally congruent with the main results. Conclusion MWA is at least as safe and effective as RFA for treating liver cancer and demonstrated significantly reduced LTP rates. Future studies should assess time and costs associated with these two treatment modalities.

Abstract
An instrument of new design has been constructed to measure the contractions of the calf musculature resulting from a tap on the Achilles tendon. The instrument provides a predetermined and adjustable dorsiflexing torque from a printed motor, but the contractions are virtually isometric as the system is one of high inertia. Peak force, half-contraction time and half-relaxation time are monitored by electronic circuits equipped with digital output meters. Observations have been made on fifty-two male and forty-five female medical students. There were no significant differences in the peak torques generated by the contractions between the men and women students and no difference in the half-contraction times. The half-relaxation times of the women were, however, significantly longer than those of the men (P = 0.0001). In another group of students the EMG discharges following a tendon tap were recorded, there was no significant difference in the duration of the activity in men and women. Observations have also been made on twenty-three male and seventy female subjects whose mean ages were in the mid-sixties. The peak torques generated by the contractions were significantly higher in the women (P = 0.03). There was no difference in the half-contraction times, but the half-relaxation times of the women were significantly longer (P = 0.001). Possible reasons for the differences are discussed.

Abstract
Equinus in hemiplegic children is multifactorial. In some cases it is due to a short muscle, in others to simple foot-drop, tonic spasticity, rigidity, compensation for a short limb, fixed flexion contracture at the hip, dominantly inherited forefoot deformity, forefoot equinus secondary to chronic toe-walking, or abnormalities of the visco-elastic properties of the muscle, with true intramuscular contracture. This neurophysiological study confirms that hemiplegia in children is not a homogeneous condition. Some have tonic spasticity; some, although stiff, show electrical silence on stretching; some appear to have a short muscle, with no hypertonicity; and others have hypertonicity in relation to position (i.e. rigidity). A short muscle is not always associated with tonic spasticity with reciprocal inhibition. Weakness can occur without spasticity. Speed of movement of toes, ankle and hip is also significantly reduced.

Abstract
Resting muscle tone of the leg was measured in terms of thigh muscle stiffness and knee resonant frequency in muscles of spinal cord injured subjects who had been involved in an electrical neuromuscular stimulation training programme of the thigh muscles over at least 2 months. The thigh circumference of these patients was 6.6% larger than before training commenced (P less than 0.001) and showed increased muscle stiffness and resonant frequency compared to a similar group of paralysed subjects who had not used any neuromuscular stimulation. Resonant frequency and stiffness after the long-term training were similar to those of non-injured controls and therefore the stimulation programme seemed to reverse the effects of paralysis on muscle tone. Short periods of rest (30 min) caused increased muscle stiffness in non-injured controls and paralysed muscles trained by neuromuscular stimulation. Additional 15 min periods of neuromuscular stimulation further increased muscle stiffness in the trained muscles but also in the muscles of paralysed subjects who had no long-term neuromuscular training. In contrast, 15 min sessions of passive movement of the knee decreased muscle stiffness in long-term trained paralysed muscles and untrained paralysed muscles. Knee resonant frequency was also significantly decreased in the trained paralysed muscles. Results show that muscle tone varies depending on the amount of previous movement or rest and that although neuromuscular stimulation of paralysed muscles increases muscle stiffness and knee resonant frequency, it is in fact restoring such properties of the muscle to a state approaching that of non-injured controls.

Abstract
The resonant frequency of the wrist has been measured in sixteen hypermobile and nine normal women at ten levels of peak torque. At the lowest level the results were identical but at the others the hypermobile values were lower. Damping and thixotropy appeared to be normal. In another group the grip strength of hypermobile subjects was similar to that of controls. The possibility that the connective tissue of the musculature of hypermobile subjects is of enhanced compliance is discussed.

Abstract
The biodynamics of the feet of spastic children have been studied by estimating the resonant frequency using a printed motor to supply rhythmic torques. Changes induced when the muscles have been stretched by casting for four weeks are trivial or absent. The position of the feet, however, after the procedure became more nearly normal.

Abstract
A granule-associated phospholipase A2 from rabbit polymorphonuclear leukocytes and a closely similar phospholipase A2 from rabbit serum have been purified to near homogeneity by ion-exchange and reverse-phase chromatography. The cellular (polymorphonuclear leukocyte) phospholipase A2 has been purified greater than 100,000-fold and the extracellular (serum) phospholipase A2 approximately 60,000-fold. The NH2-terminal amino acid sequence of the ascitic fluid phospholipase A2 that we have recently purified from inflammatory exudates produced in rabbits is nearly identical (15 of 16 residues) to that of the polymorphonuclear leukocyte phospholipase A2 and completely identical (19 of 19 residues) to that of the purified serum phospholipase A2. The functional properties of these three phospholipases A2 are indistinguishable. Each enzyme is active against Escherichia coli killed by the bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein of polymorphonuclear leukocyte, a property shared only by a subset of phospholipases A2. The presence of structurally and functionally very closely similar phospholipases A2 in the cellular and extracellular compartments of an inflammatory exudate is consistent with the apparent role of these enzymes in the destruction of certain microbial invaders during the acute inflammatory response.

Abstract
The wrist has been moved rhythmically in the horizontal plane by sinusoidal torques provided by a printed motor. Measurements have been made on normal subjects and subjects with rheumatoid arthritis. Both groups exhibited a resonance, the oscillations being greatest when the applied torque was of certain frequency. In both groups the resonant frequency fell to approximately the same constant value when the torque was raised. While the main relationships were similar a somewhat lower torque resulted in the lowering of resonant frequency in the patients. The relationship between applied torque and peak velocity at resonance was also studied. For a given torque the motion was greater in the patients. No objective signs of increased viscous or elastic stiffness were demonstrable at the wrist in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

Abstract
The thigh muscle tone of non-injured subjects and complete injury paraplegics has been investigated using torques, generated by a printed motor, to move the knee. The dynamic measure of resonant frequency (related to stiffness) together with a static measure of stiffness have shown the legs of non-injured subjects to respond non-linearly to decreasing torques. However, the complete paraplegics' legs did not respond non-linearly but showed constant resonant frequency and stiffness over the range of torques. Peak velocity at resonance (inversely related to damping) gradually increased with increasing torques in both groups. In addition, at a chosen baseline torque of 0.7 N m, resonant frequency and muscle stiffness were significantly lower and peak velocity significantly higher in the paraplegics compared to the non-injured subjects. Contrary to expectations the thigh muscles in established, complete paraplegia showed a lack of tonic EMG activity. In addition, whilst phasic stretch responses were occasionally seen there was no tonic activity in relation to continued stretch. Since muscles atrophy after paralysis, the smaller muscle bulk may contribute to the lower muscle tone.

Abstract
The resonant frequency of the wrist has been measured in hemiplegic subjects and was higher on the spastic side, indicating greater stiffness. The increased stiffness is associated with stretch reflex activity, which is absent in normal subjects. The increased stiffness of spasticity in most of the patients did not exaggerate the sharpness of tuning as there was a compensatory rise in damping. Increased damping will contribute to the subjective assessment of muscular hypertonicity. Measurements of resonant frequency and damping are essential in assessing muscular hypertonicity.

Abstract
In these experiments the person relaxed on his back with one leg free to swing in the horizontal plane into abduction or adduction; the weight was taken by a cord attached to the ceiling over the hip joint. Records of acceleration following a displacement showed a series of decrementing swings which could last for more than 10 s. The imposition of sinusoidal torques generated by a printed motor showed that the system was non-linear for when small torques were used the resonant frequency rose indicating stiffening. The use of a biasing force to move the mean position of the leg showed that the stiffening was not related to any particular position and was the result of the low level of movement. Under certain conditions the stiffening could be abolished by larger active or passive movements. Even a single active or passive movement could be effective. Such a history-dependent compliance was an indication of postural thixotropy. It was present and apparently normal in patients with artificial joints. Reasons are given for believing that the effects are a reflection of muscle properties.

Abstract
The mechanisms underlying clonus are considered in relation to current theories. By the use of a lever attached to a printed motor forces have been applied to the upper edge of the patella, a steady stretching force in suitable hemiplegic patients started the clonic oscillations. With rhythmic forces it has been found that the underlying rhythm is very resistant to entrainment. The oscillation provoked by a steady bias is increased in amplitude but unchanged in frequency when inertia is added to the apparatus. The frequency of clonus at the ankle, patella and wrist is similar. These and other considerations lead to the conclusion that clonus is not due to the self re-excitation of stretch reflexes but to an autonomous central generator.

Abstract
Twenty-five children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy between the ages of five and 15 years were examined in more detail, using a torque generator motor. A significant reduction in distal power, fatiguability and speed of movement was found on the hemiplegic side. Proximal power was relatively well preserved. Muscle tone, as would be expected, was significantly increased on the affected side and this was demonstrated by a significant rise in measured resonant frequency. Phasic spasticity in response to stretch was found on EMG to be much more common than phasic and tonic combined. Hand function correlated well with the loss of distal power and speed of movement. There was wide individual variation in the relationship between increased muscle tone and hand function. Thixotropy was normal in spastic muscles. Use of the unaffected hand had a marked effect on muscle tone and EMG of the affected side.

Abstract
The biodynamics of the forearm of a number of relaxed human subjects have been investigated using a printed motor as a torque generator. Oscillation in the horizontal plane at the resonant frequency has been maintained by feed-back of a modified velocity signal. By means of negative position feed-back the stiffness could be artificially increased and the resonant frequency accordingly elevated. From these changes it has been possible to calculate limb inertia and muscle stiffness, treating the limb as a torsion pendulum. The correlation of inertia with the fifth power of limb length has been studied, this relationship being predicted on theoretical grounds. A significant correlation was found between resonant frequency and the square root of the reciprocal of inertia, a relationship also predicted on theoretical grounds. As the limb was kept on resonance the motion was limited solely by the damping. When the rate of oscillation was increased by the use of added stiffness the peak velocity increased, indicating that the damping was reduced. The mean inertia and mean stiffness values for the men were higher than those for the women. The kinetic energy of rapid voluntary movements was greater in men than in women.

Abstract
Observations on wrist tremor have been made in the horizontal plane using a tremorograph of new design. A small tap to the hand gave rise to a decrementing series of oscillations at about 9 Hz; as these effects were seen in relaxed and in anaesthetised subjects they were not due to neural reflexes. With the fingers partially extended the spontaneous tremor increased markedly and taps again gave rise to a series of oscillations. Under these circumstances there was no modulation of the EMG. It is accordingly concluded that mechanical wrist resonance plays a major role in the forms of tremor studied.

Abstract
The forearm was cooled in water at 5-10 degrees C while wrist biodynamics were investigated. Pronounced loosening following a perturbation (thixotropy) was no longer seen. The wrist became stiffer for large or moderate but not small movements; EMG activity did not increase. Cooling the wrist alone, or opposite forearm, was without effect. The ability to make rapid reciprocating movements was reduced and muscle relaxation time was increased. Single movements were not affected.

Abstract
The resonance of the relaxed wrist for flexion-extension movements in the horizontal plane has been investigated by using rhythmic torques generated by a printed motor. In the normal subject the resonant frequency of the wrist is ca. 2 Hz unless the torque is reduced below a certain critical value when the system is no longer linear and the resonant frequency rises. This critical torque level, and the damping are both less in women than men. The resonant frequency is uninfluenced by surgical anaesthesia. With added bias the increase of resonant frequency at low torques still occurs although the hand is now oscillating about a displaced mean position. It follows that the stiffening implied by this elevation of resonant frequency for small movements is neither the result of pre-stressing of the muscles nor of reflex activity. With velocity feed-back of appropriate polarity the system will oscillate spontaneously at its resonant frequency. If the peak driving torque is progressively reduced the resonant frequency increases abruptly, indicating that the system has stiffened. Perturbations delivered to the wrist may reduce its stiffness. The postural system is thixotropic with a 'memory time' of 1-2 s. The resonant frequency is elevated in voluntary stiffening.

Abstract
Intratracheal injection of samples of naturally occurring and man-made mineral fibres into guinea pigs showed that while long fibre samples produced marked fibrosis, short fibre specimens produced only a macrophage reaction. In most cases the long fibre samples were administered in smaller doses than the short. The samples tested were crocidolite asbestos, a synthetic fluoramphibole and two specimens of glass fibre with different mean diameters. With all the minerals tested some short fibres, but not long fibres, were transported to the hilar lymph nodes. In some instances the numbers of short fibres found in these nodes appeared to be much higher than would be expected from the percentage of short fibres in the original sample, and it is suggested that this may be due to the breakdown of long fibres within the lung.
