Résumé :

♦ Traditionally bearings were made from polyethylene and cobalt chrome. These bearings are still most commonly used for knee replacements. In hip replacements due to osteolysis caused by polyethylene wear alternative material combinations at the bearing surface are used♦ Highly cross linked plastics have been developed and have been shown to reduce wear. There are a number of different types available which differ in their performance♦ Metal on metal bearings first used in the 1960s have also been developed and show very low wear rates. These bearings are more susceptible to edge loading and the resulting metal ion release can result in adverse biological reactions leading to failure♦ Whilst ceramic on plastic surfaces have been used for a considerable amount of time the reduction in wear is not as great as with well functioning metal on metal bearings♦ Ceramic on ceramic bearings have been used for a considerable time and show even lower wear rates than metal on metal bearings. In the past there has been an incidence of catastrophic fracture of these bearings but developments in materials technology have considerably reduced these events.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

In those patients with significant sympathetically maintained pain, repeated blocks may provide a therapeutic value and help facilitate physical therapy and rehabilitation. Cervical sympathetic blocks have been traditionally performed by using surface landmarks, however imaging-guided blocks are strongly recommended to avoid potential serious complications. Most preganglionic sympathetic efferents innervating the head, neck, and upper extremity either pass through or synapse at the stellate ganglion. This provides an ideal target for blockade of sympathetic innervation to the head, neck, and upper limbs. The stellate ganglion block can be performed at the C6 and C7 transverse processes. Fluoroscopy is a reliable method for identifying bony surfaces, which facilitates identifying the C6 and C7 transverse processes; however, this is only a surrogate marker, because the location of the cervical sympathetic trunk is defined by the fascial plane of the prevertebral fascia, which cannot be visualized with fluoroscopy.

Résumé :

A knowledge of the doses that patients receive is important to optimize radiation protection in diagnostic radiology. This chapter covers the methodology involved in assessment and management of patient dose for radiography and fluoroscopy. The dose quantities are described and ones to use for different applications are discussed. The instruments and measurement techniques used are described, including passive techniques such as TLD and radiochromic film. The need to consider scattering of X-rays from surfaces is explained. Factors to be taken into account include whether the assessment is for practical evaluation of technique or to provide an indication of risk. The appropriate dose to assess could be that to the whole body, the skin surface, or a particular organ such as the breast in mammography. These factors all feed into the patient dose audit process, which is explained together with the setting of diagnostic references levels to aid optimization.

♦ The design of the surface replacement arthroplasty has evolved over the past 20 years. From cemented prostheses such as the SCAN, to cementless prostheses such as the Copeland, the basic concept and design of the surface replacement favouring maximal bone preservation has remained constant.♦ Indications and surgical technique have been refined over this period, the latest modification being the use of computer-assisted navigation to optimise the size and position the implant in situ.♦ Surface replacement prosthesis has demonstrated clinical results at least equal to those of conventional stemmed prostheses.

Résumé :

Human pathogenic fungi produce three basic ‘cell’ types: hyphae, yeast cells, and spores. The organization and subcellular structure of these different cell types and their modes of growth and formation are reviewed. Growth and form is the consequence of how new cell surface is formed. This is generated by the delivery of vesicles to the surface which provides new membrane and the enzymes for cell wall synthesis. To generate these various cell types, the pathway of vesicle secretion to the surface has to be carefully regulated. These vesicles have to be transported through the cell by the cytoskeleton, and in filamentous cells these vesicles accumulate at a supply centre called the Spitzenkörper before docking and fusion with the hyphal apex. Ultimately, membrane is also endocytosed and recycled behind actively expanding regions of the fungal surface. These various processes are described and particular emphasis is given to the structural and organizational features of fungal cells that play roles in their pathogenesis and virulence.

This chapter describes the pathways and dynamics of chemical contaminants within the various structural layers. In the atmosphere, the chemical contaminants are transferred by diffusion, turbulence, plume dispersion, long-range transport, and tropospheric-stratospheric interchange. They are transferred to the hydrosphere by surface deposition, rainout, and washout. They are transferred to the lithosphere by surface flow and penetration, and are transferred within the biosphere by food-chain concentration.

Résumé :

Religion and medical ethics are inextricably, we might say intrinsically, intertwined. This chapter starts at the surface—with how religion “shows up” in everyday clinical ethical disputes. It turns out that the religious characteristics of physicians are the strongest predictor of physicians’ approaches to ethically disputed clinical practices. That should not surprise us since below the surface of clinical disputes are inescapable moral questions to which religions give authoritative answers. That this is so calls the assumptions and practices of conventional medical ethics into question, particularly when those writing from religious traditions critique much of the culture of contemporary medicine.

Résumé :

In recent decades, interdisciplinary scholars have become interested in the role of the world’s oceans in shaping society and culture. While they have primarily considered travel across the ocean’s surface, the submarine environment is part of this history too. The imagination of the undersea world was particularly rich and varied from the middle of the nineteenth century, when it became a frontier of science and technology. We might think, for example, of the crystalline enchantment of illustrations for Jules Verne’s 20,000 Leagues under the Sea. This chapter contrasts such speculative imaginings with the work of an artist who, thanks to the latest developments in diving suits, was able to work en pleine mer. Walter Howlison ‘Zarh’ Pritchard (1866–1956) was the first painter to don a diving suit and take oil crayons and paints beneath the surface of the seas. What emerges is a submarine aesthetic based on careful observation.

Résumé :

After control of the primary process causing acute neurological injury, further control of secondary injury pathways can be achieved by manipulating brain temperature, and achieving biochemical and metabolic homeostasis. Surgical techniques are routinely used to remove blood or trapped cerebrospinal fluid, control mass effect, or repair unstable vascular abnormalities. Therapeutic temperature management to a defined target can be achieved and maintained using cold fluids, ice packs, body surface cooling pads, and surface and intravascular devices with servo (feedback) mechanisms. Successful temperature management requires attentive surveillance and control of shivering and other potential complications, such as bleeding, infection, cardiac arrhythmias, and electrolyte and metabolic disturbances. Extremes of oxygenation and ventilation are associated with worse long-term functional outcomes, and should be avoided.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

HLA-B27 is present in the majority of patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Although we have learned a considerable amount about the natural immunologic function of HLA class I proteins, this has not provided a definitive mechanism of AS pathogenesis. While HLA-B27 is adept at presenting antigenic peptides to CD8+ T cells, ‘arthritogenic’ peptides targeted by a cross-reactive T or natural killer cell response have not been described, nor have autoreactive T cells been found. Newer concepts have evolved based on the propensity of HLA-B27 to ‘misbehave’, both inside cells and on the cell surface. Misfolded HLA-B27 molecules may stimulate an endoplasmic reticulum stress response, promoting production of IL-23 and then IL-17 and related cytokines. Aberrant cell-surface HLA-B27 molecules are ligands for natural killer and related immunoreceptors, and recognition can lead to IL-17 proinflammatory responses. There is growing evidence to suggest that these aberrant behaviours contribute to AS pathogenesis.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

Two monoclonal antibodies, RP215 and GHR106, were selected, respectively, for the research and development of anti-cancer drugs targeting ovarian cancer and other types of human cancer. RP215 was shown to react with a carbohydrate-associated epitope located mainly in the variable regions of immunoglobulin heavy chains expressed on the surface of almost all cancer cells in humans. GHR106 was generated against a synthetic peptide corresponding to N1-29 amino acid residues in the extracellular domains of human GnRH receptor, which is surface-expressed by most cancer cells as well as the anterior pituitary. This monoclonal antibody was shown to serve as a bioequivalent analog to GnRH-derived decapeptides currently used clinically. The molecular mechanisms of action of these two antibody-based anti-cancer drug candidates were well elucidated following numerous biochemical, immunological, and molecular biological studies, mainly by using ovarian cancer as the model. Further preclinical studies with humanized forms of these two antibodies are essential.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

In depolarization to effect neuronal activations,, electrical charges are delivered to the neuron to affect the electrical potential across the neuronal membrane to subsequently affect voltage-gated ionic conductance channels. The orientation of the field of electrical charges to the neuronal membrane is critical. Electrical charges flow from the negative contact to the positive contact. The negative electrostatic charge “pushes” negative charges onto the outer surface of the neuron, which results in depolarization of the neuronal membrane. Neurons near the positive contact will not have negative electrical charges deposited on the outer surface, will not be depolarized, and thus, are not activated. Likewise, neurons whose membranes are oriented parallel to the lines of electrical forces that move electrical charges will not receive the electrical charges and, consequently, will not be activated. The electronics of the DBS systems are designed to control the electrostatic forces so as to control the activations of the nervous system to generate benefit and avoid adverse effects.

Résumé :

This introductory chapter briefly examines the roots and evolution of working-class manhood. It shows how working-class masculine identity had many roots. The relations of social class, gender, race, and ethnicity influenced and shaped male attitudes, values, and behaviors. Most important, boys becoming men, young men, and adult men fashioned and refashioned their manliness in a variety of all-male settings—such as the workplace. The workplace was central to the forming, nurturing, widening, and deepening of this masculine culture. Generally, this working-class masculine culture has surfaced in two distinct forms—a respectable culture and a rough one. Though analytically quite discrete, these two contradictory forms might result from either personal disposition or social position. Yet they sometimes coexisted with, overlapped with, or blended into each other.

Résumé :

Metastases are the predominant cause of morbidity and death from prostate cancer (CaP). The tendency for cells to migrate from the primary site, enter the vascular/lymphatic circulation, and implant/grow at secondary sites is the principal discriminator of aggressive form indolent disease. But this process is poorly understood. Cells enter the circulation in increasing number as the disease progresses, impinging on endothelial surfaces, particularly in red bone marrow where they bind and transmigrate, forming early cell colonies. This requires chemo-attractants and nutrients enabling cellular survival. Established metastases thrive independently, disrupting local tissue, as characterized by progressive replacement of red bone marrow and disruption of skeletal architecture. Bone disruption includes massive overstimulation of both osteoblasts and osteoclasts, inducing synchronous over-production of abnormal bone and gross osteolysis.

Résumé :

This chapter discusses inflammatory scalp diseases and hair shedding (telogen effluvium and pattern hair loss). Inflammatory diseases of the scalp can affect all epidermal surfaces or focus upon the follicle, with relative sparing of the interfollicular skin. Eczema and psoriasis are examples of the former; other diseases, such as lichen planopilaris or discoid lupus erythematosus, are examples of the latter. Some follicular diseases, such as the family of diseases based on alopecia areata (alopecia areata (small areas of hair loss), alopecia totalis (whole scalp), and alopecia universalis (whole body)), cause barely visible follicular inflammation which results in hair loss but no scarring. Some patients present with hair shedding or change of hair pattern as their primary complaint, with no scalp disease; this is telogen effluvium. Others present with an altered pattern of scalp hair without conspicuous shedding; this is pattern hair loss.

Résumé :

Viral gastroenteritis is a diarrheal disease associated with nausea, vomiting, headache, abdominal cramping, myalgias, and low-grade fever. Stools are often described as watery, with bouts of diarrhea and emesis that can occur on an hourly basis. Blood or mucus in the stool is suggestive of a bacterial or parasitic process. Additionally, the presence of fecal leukocytes excludes viral infection, as it is suggestive of colonic inflammation. Treatment is mainly supportive with appropriate hydration, including oral rehydration and/or intravenous fluids, being the key intervention. Specific antiviral agents are not available. Prevention and control of spread are important issues for viral gastroenteritis. Hand washing alone may reduce the spread of infection. The use of alcohol-based hand sanitizers and daily disinfection of surfaces with quaternary ammonium wipes has reduced the spread of Norovirus and was found superior to handwashing alone.

Résumé :

Despite advances in antimicrobial therapy, central nervous system infections have a high morbidity and mortality. Most pathogens reach the brain by haematogenous spread following invasion through the mucosal surface of the nasopharynx. The cerebrospinal fluid inflammatory response is responsible for most of the deleterious effects of the infection. Understanding this response has allowed a more rational approach to therapy. Patients may present with non-specific features, especially neonates, infants, post-neurosurgical patients, and the elderly. This chapter will review the epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical presentation, and diagnosis of acute bacterial meningitis and encephalitis.
