Objective: to determine the information content of electrical impedancemetry as a method of assessing myocardial protection during cardioplegic different versions. The study included 54 patients operated on in the emergency department of valvular defects surgery at Bakulev's Medical Center. Depending on the method of myocardial protection patients were divided into 3 groups: Group 1 - patients whom Buckberg cardioplegia was used (n = 31), group 2 - patients underwent cardioplegia solution with Custodiol (n = 9), group 3 - patients who have a perioperative myocardial protection used hyperkalium solution (n = 14). All patients were studied bioelectrical impedance of the myocardium. The results showed that the electrical impedancemetry can well assess the state of the myocardium during surgery.

An Event Related Potential (ERP) component called the Sustained Posterior Negativity (SPN) is generated by regular visual patterns (e.g. vertical reflectional symmetry, horizontal reflectional symmetry or rotational symmetry). Behavioural studies suggest symmetry becomes increasingly salient when the exemplars update rapidly. In line with this, Experiment 1 (N = 48) found that SPN amplitude increased when three different reflectional symmetry patterns were presented sequentially. We call this effect ‘SPN priming’. We then exploited SPN priming to investigate independence of different symmetry representations. SPN priming did not survive changes in retinal location (Experiment 2, N = 48) or non-orthogonal changes in axis orientation (Experiment 3, N = 48). However, SPN priming transferred between vertical and horizontal axis orientations (Experiment 4, N = 48) and between reflectional and rotational symmetry (Experiment 5, N = 48). SPN priming is interesting in itself, and a useful new method for identifying functional boundaries of the symmetry response. We conclude that visual regularities at different retinal locations are coded independently. However, there is some overlap between different regularities presented at the same retinal location.

The focus of discussion in Working Group 3 was on the Thermodynamic Properties as determined spectroscopically, including the observational techniques and the theoretical modeling of physical processes responsible for the emission spectrum. Recent advances in observational techniques and theoretical concepts make this discussion particularly timely. It is wise to remember that the determination of thermodynamic parameters is not an end in itself and that these are interesting chiefly for what they can tell us about the energetics and mass transport in prominences.

During follicular development in the mammalian ovary, several functional changes occur in the granulosa cells in response to steroid hormones and gonadotropins (1,2). In particular, marked changes in the content of membrane-associated receptors for the gonadotropins have been observed (1).We report here scanning electron microscope observations of morphological changes that occur on the granulosa cell surface in response to the administration of estradiol, human follicle stimulating hormone (hFSH), and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG).Immature female rats that were hypophysectcmized on day 24 of age were treated in the following manner. Group 1: control groups were injected once a day with 0.1 ml phosphate buffered saline (PBS) for 3 days; group 2: estradiol (1.5 mg/0.2 ml propylene glycol) once a day for 3 days; group 3: estradiol for 3 days followed by 2 days of hFSH (1 μg/0.1 ml) twice daily, group 4: same as in group 3; group 5: same as in group 3 with a final injection of hCG (5 IU/0.1 ml) on the fifth day.

Investigations which require electron microscope examination of a few specific areas of non-homogeneous tissues make random sampling of small blocks an inefficient and unrewarding procedure. Therefore, several investigators have devised methods which allow obtaining sample blocks for electron microscopy from region of tissue previously identified by light microscopy of present here techniques which make possible: 1) sampling tissue for electron microscopy from selected areas previously identified by light microscopy of relatively large pieces of tissue; 2) dehydration and embedding large numbers of individually identified blocks while keeping each one separate; 3) a new method of maintaining specific orientation of blocks during embedding; 4) special light microscopic staining or fluorescent procedures and electron microscopy on immediately adjacent small areas of tissue.

Electron Energy Loss

Quantitative electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) needs a correction for the limited collection aperture α and a deconvolution of recorded spectra for eliminating the influence of multiple inelastic scattering. Reversely, it is of interest to calculate the influence of multiple scattering on EELS. The distribution f(w,θ,z) of scattered electrons as a function of energy loss w, scattering angle θ and reduced specimen thickness z=t/Λ (Λ=total mean-free-path) can either be recorded by angular-resolved EELS or calculated by a convolution of a normalized single-scattering function ϕ(w,θ). For rotational symmetry in angle (amorphous or polycrystalline specimens) this can be realised by the following sequence of operations :(1)where the two-dimensional distribution in angle is reduced to a one-dimensional function by a projection P, T is a two-dimensional Fourier transform in angle θ and energy loss w and the exponent -1 indicates a deprojection and inverse Fourier transform, respectively.
