Abstract: Acanthosis nigricans (AN) has been recognized as a marker of insulin resistance and diabetes mellitus. We have compared frequency of race and metabolic disturbances in obese women with several degrees of AN (AN group, N = 190) to a group without AN (non-AN group, N = 61) from a mixed racial population. The groups were similar regarding age and body mass index. All patients (except the diabetic patients) underwent an oral glucose tolerance test (75 g). The racial distribution of this population was 35.1% white, 37.8% mulatto and 27.1% black and the frequency of AN was 62.5, 82.1 and 83.8%, respectively, higher in black versus white (P = 0.003) and mulatto versus white (P = 0.002) women. The frequencies of diabetes mellitus and impaired glucose tolerance were 5.8 and 12.6% in the AN group and 1.6 and 8.2% in the non-AN group, respectively (P>0.05). Fasting glucose, cell function determined by the homeostasis model of assessment (HOMA), fasting insulin and insulin area under the curve were similar for the AN and non-AN groups. A higher HOMA insulin resistance was observed in the AN group compared to the non-AN group (P = 0.02) and in the subgroup of highest degree of AN compared to those with other degrees. The mean lipid levels and the frequency of dyslipidemia were similar for the two groups. AN was strongly associated with the black or mulatto rather than the white race, even after taking into account the effect of age, body mass index and HOMA insulin resistance.

Abstract: O objetivo do presente trabalho foi a formula o e a caracteriza o química, nutricional e sensorial de dois tipos de biscoito, tipo "cookie" e "snack", utilizando para o enriquecimento protéico a caseína obtida por coagula o enzimática para o "cookie" e caseinato de sódio para o "snack". O biscoito tipo "cookie" apresentou teores mais elevados de umidade, proteína e fibra total que o do tipo "snack", que foi mais rico em gordura e sal. Com rela o aos minerais essenciais, o biscoito tipo "cookie" apresentou-se mais rico em minerais que o "snack", exceto pelo fósforo e pelo sódio com teores mais elevados no "snack". O perfil de aminoácidos essenciais foi mais adequado no tipo "cookie" que no "snack". Conseqüentemente, os índices de valor protéico, exceto a digestibilidade verdadeira, foram superiores para os biscoitos do tipo "cookie". A aceitabilidade dos dois tipos de biscoito foi testada em atletas dos dois sexos com rela o aos atributos: aceita o global, cor da superfície, odor, sabor, crocancia e dureza. A aceita o dos produtos foi de 98% para os "snacks" e 81% para os "cookies". Os "cookies" tiveram o mesmo nível de aceita o pelos homens e pelas mulheres, já os "snacks" foram mais bem aceitos pelos homens (52,7% dos homens gostaram muito, contra apenas 37,8% das mulheres). A análise microbiológica dos dois tipos de biscoito mostrou perfil microbiológico aceitável, com base na Portaria 451 da Secretaria de Vigilancia Sanitária.

Abstract: the immunomodulador glatiramer acetate (ga) has been shown to significantly reduce the severity of symptoms during the course of multiple sclerosis and in its animal model - experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (eae). since ga may influence the response of non-neuronal cells in the spinal cord, it is possible that, to some extent, this drug affects the synaptic changes induced during the exacerbation of eae. in the present study, we investigated whether ga has a positive influence on the loss of inputs to the motoneurons during the course of eae in rats. lewis rats were subjected to eae associated with ga or placebo treatment. the animals were sacrificed after 15 days of treatment and the spinal cords processed for immunohistochemical analysis and transmission electron microscopy. a correlation between the synaptic changes and glial activation was obtained by performing labeling of synaptophysin and glial fibrillary acidic protein using immunohistochemical analysis. ultrastructural analysis of the terminals apposed to alpha motoneurons was also performed by electron transmission microscopy. interestingly, although the ga treatment preserved synaptophysin labeling, it did not significantly reduce the glial reaction, indicating that inflammatory activity was still present. also, ultrastructural analysis showed that ga treatment significantly prevented retraction of both f and s type terminals compared to placebo. the present results indicate that the immunomodulator ga has an influence on the stability of nerve terminals in the spinal cord, which in turn may contribute to its neuroprotective effects during the course of multiple sclerosis.

Abstract: patients with gastric cancer have a variety of immunological abnormalities. in the present study the lymphocytes and their subsets were determined in the peripheral blood of patients with gastric cancer (n = 41) both before and after surgical treatment. the percent of helper/inducer cd4 t cells (43.6 ± 8.9) was not different after tumor resection (43.6 ± 8.2). the percent of the cytotoxic cd8+ t cell population decreased significantly, whether patients were treated surgically (27.2 ± 5.8%, n = 20) or not (27.3 ± 7.3%, n = 20) compared to individuals with inflammatory disease (30.9 ± 7.5%) or to healthy individuals (33.2 ± 7.6%). the cd4/cd8 ratio consequently increased in the group of cancer patients. the peripheral blood lymphocytes of gastric cancer patients showed reduced responsiveness to mitogens. the defective blastogenic response of the lymphocytes was not associated with the production of transforming growth factor beta (tgf-？) since the patients with cancer had reduced production of tgf-？1 (269 ± 239 pg/ml, n = 20) in comparison to the normal individuals (884 ± 175 pg/ml, n = 20). these results indicate that the immune response of gastric cancer patients was not significantly modified by surgical treatment when evaluated four weeks after surgery and that the immunosuppression observed was not due to an increase in tgf-？1 production by peripheral leukocytes.

Abstract: The reliability of electronic device is threatened in high power microwave (HPM) environment. In accordance with the situation that the emulation is ineffective in evaluating the accuracy and precision of the HPM effect to electronic device, the experimental method is used to resolve the problem. Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) and Limiter are selected as the objects for the experiments, the structural characteristic of the front-end of radar receiver is described, the phenomena and criterion are elaborated and analyzed using injection method due to its ability to get an accurate threshold avoiding the complex coupling, the basic principle of injection experiment is demonstrated, and the method and process of effect experiment about Low Noise Amplifier and Limiter are also explained. The experimental system is established, and the system is composed of low power microwave source such as TWT, test equipment for obtaining the effect parameters, and some of auxiliary equipments as camera, optical microscope or electron microscopy, attenuator, detector, and directional coupler etc. The microwave delivered from source is adjusted to the power infused by attenuator, and pour in the decanting point of effecter via directional coupler, then the couple signal created by directional coupler is input to the recording instrument after detecting by detector, finally the power of effecter is obtained. The value of power, which damages the effecter in the microwave pulse environment, is classified at the index of sensitivity, and the threshold is obtained by power diagnose and wave test. Some regular understandings of the HPM effect to electronic device are obtained based on the results of the experiments. It turns out that the index of electronic device is influenced significantly by the energy via front door coupling, the MOSFET made up of GaAs is the most wearing part to HPM in LNA, the damage threshold of LNA is about 40dBm under single pulse while in repetitive pulse the value is from 33.3dBm to 43.9dBm according to different wave band. The damage threshold of Limiter is about 56dBm to80dBm.
