Abstract

The Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) is a TeV-scale high-luminosity linear $e^+e^-$ collider under development at CERN. Following the CLIC conceptual design published in 2012, this report provides an overview of the CLIC project, its current status, and future developments. It presents the CLIC physics potential and reports on design, technology, and implementation aspects of the accelerator and the detector. CLIC is foreseen to be built and operated in stages, at centre-of-mass energies of 380 GeV, 1.5 TeV and 3 TeV, respectively. CLIC uses a two-beam acceleration scheme, in which 12 GHz accelerating structures are powered via a high-current drive beam. For the first stage, an alternative with X-band klystron powering is also considered. CLIC accelerator optimisation, technical developments and system tests have resulted in an increased energy efficiency (power around 170 MW) for the 380 GeV stage, together with a reduced cost estimate at the level of 6 billion CHF. The detector concept has been refined using improved software tools. Significant progress has been made on detector technology developments for the tracking and calorimetry systems. A wide range of CLIC physics studies has been conducted, both through full detector simulations and parametric studies, together providing a broad overview of the CLIC physics potential. Each of the three energy stages adds cornerstones of the full CLIC physics programme, such as Higgs width and couplings, top-quark properties, Higgs self-coupling, direct searches, and many precision electroweak measurements. The interpretation of the combined results gives crucial and accurate insight into new physics, largely complementary to LHC and HL-LHC. The construction of the first CLIC energy stage could start by 2026. First beams would be available by 2035, marking the beginning of a broad CLIC physics programme spanning 25-30 years., 112 pages, 59 figures; published as CERN Yellow Report Monograph Vol. 2/2018; corresponding editors: Philip N.

Subjects
Accelerators and Storage Rings
Abstract

During the cool-down the HOM coupler as well as the cavity inside the cryo module experience a thermal contraction. For most materials between room temperature and liquid helium temperatures, the changes in dimension are in the order of a few tenths of a percent change in volume. This paper presents the effect of thermal contraction on the RF transmission behavior of HOM couplers, and in particular the influence on its notch filter. Furthermore the simulation process with APDL is explained in detail. Conclusions about the necessary tuning range of the notch filter are made which is especially a concern for couplers with only notch filter.

Abstract

The potential for a superconducting proton linac (SPL) at CERN started to be seriously considered at the end of the 1990s. In the first conceptual design report (CDR), published in 2000 [1], most of the 352 MHz RF equipment from LEP was re-used in an 800 m long linac, and the proton beam energy was limited to 2.2 GeV. During the following years, the design was revisited and optimized to better match the needs of a high-power proton driver for neutrino physics. The result was a more compact (470 m long) accelerator capable of delivering 5 MW of beam power at 3.5 GeV, using state-of-the-art superconducting RF cavities at 704 MHz. It was described in a second CDR, published in 2006 [2]. Soon afterwards, when preparation for increasing the luminosity of the LHC by an order of magnitude beyond nominal became an important concern, a low-power SPL (LP-SPL) was studied as a key component in the renovation of the LHC injector complex. The combination of a 4 GeV LP-SPL injecting into a new 50 GeV synchrotron (PS2) was proposed to replace the ageing Linac2, PSB, and PS. In a later stage, if necessary for future physics programmes (neutrino production or generation of radioactive ion beams), the linac could be brought up to multimegawatt beam power by upgrading the cooling, the electrical infrastructure, and the power supplies. The construction of the low-energy front end of the LP-SPL started in 2008 as the Linac4 project [3], aimed at the replacement of Linac2, with the potential for being adapted later to the needs of a low-power or high-power SPL (HP-SPL). In parallel, the R&D on the superconducting linac continued, initially to refine the design of the LP-SPL and afterwards that of the HP-SPL. This report presents the design of the LP-SPL and the work accomplished in preparing a proposal for new LHC injectors with the support of the European Commission under the Framework Programmes 6 and 7 and in collaboration with multiple laboratories and institutions worldwide. The status of the R&D towards an HP-SPL is summarized.

Abstract

High-grade gliomas in children are rare and the best treatment is undetermined. The German language group study HIT-GBM compares various induction protocols for subsequent patient cohorts. Currently, cisplatinum, etoposide, ifosfamide, and vincristine are given simultaneously with extended-field radiotherapy. Imaging is done 3 weeks after to define treatment response, followed by 6-weekly controls during consolidation with lomustine, vincristine, and prednisone. The authors report on 2 patients with incompletely resected glioblastoma multiforme in which response was lacking 3 weeks after radiochemotherapy but became evident 12 weeks later. This suggests that later time points are required to assess induction protocol response. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

We decided to test to what extent dose reduction is possible in abdominal spiral computed tomography (CT) in young children without loss of anatomic diagnostic information. A retrospective study was performed of 30 abdominal CT examinations of children aged 3 months to 7 years. These were divided into two groups: group A with reduced radiation exposure (tube current 50 mA, CT dose index CTDIFDA < or =0.83 mGy) and group B with standard radiation exposure (tube current > or =100 mA, CTDIFDA > or =1.66 mGy). Image quality was assessed using a four-part scale ('excellent', 'good', 'sufficient', 'poor') on visual image impression and visibility of 32 anatomical details. Five experienced radiologists read the CT scans independently who were blinded to the examination parameters. Differences in ranked data were evaluated with Wilcoxon's rank sum test. No difference between groups A and B was observed in visual image impression. Detail visibility was significantly lower in group A, but the differences were limited to right upper quadrant structures (portal vein, common bile duct, pancreatic head, adrenals) and to arterial branches. Significant differences in visibility rated as 'poor' were only found for the hepatic, splenic and renal arteries; all other structures showed no difference between groups A and B. A protocol with reduced radiation exposure (50 mA, CTDIFDA < or =0.83 mGy) allowed the demonstration of most anatomic structures in abdominal spiral CT in young children. For the precise demonstration of small details (e.g. structures of the right upper quadrant), a protocol with standard radiation exposure (> or =100 mAs) was superior. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Description: The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and Department of Defense (DoD) worked together to revise the 2017 VA/DoD Clinical Practice Guideline for the Management of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder and Acute Stress Disorder. This article summarizes the 2023 clinical practice guideline (CPG) and its development process, focusing on assessments and treatments for which evidence was sufficient to support a recommendation for or against., Methods: Subject experts from both departments developed 12 key questions and reviewed the published literature after a systematic search using the PICOTS (population, intervention, comparator, outcomes, timing of outcomes measurement, and setting) method. The evidence was then evaluated using the GRADE (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation) method. Recommendations were made after consensus was reached; they were based on quality and strength of evidence and informed by other factors, including feasibility and patient perspectives. Once the draft was peer reviewed by an external group of experts and their inputs were incorporated, the final document was completed., Recommendations: The revised CPG includes 34 recommendations in the following 5 topic areas: assessment and diagnosis, prevention, treatment, treatment of nightmares, and treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) with co-occurring conditions. Six recommendations on PTSD treatment were rated as strong. The CPG recommends use of specific manualized psychotherapies over pharmacotherapy; prolonged exposure, cognitive processing therapy, or eye movement desensitization and reprocessing psychotherapy; paroxetine, sertraline, or venlafaxine; and secure video teleconferencing to deliver recommended psychotherapy when that therapy has been validated for use with video teleconferencing or when other options are unavailable. The CPG also recommends against use of benzodiazepines, cannabis, or cannabis-derived products. Providers are encouraged to use this guideline to support evidence-based, patient-centered care and shared decision making to optimize individuals' health outcomes and quality of life., Competing Interests: Disclosures: Disclosures can be viewed at www.acponline.org/authors/icmje/ConflictOfInterestForms.do?msNum=M23-2757.

Abstract

Introduction: Vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation (VGAM) is a severe pediatric neurovascular disease. Children often present with congestive heart failure in the neonatal period. In the last decades, endovascular treatment became the first therapeutic option. The purpose of this study is to report our results in the treatment of VGAM with a combined transvenous and transarterial method in the last ten years., Methods: In our cohort of 28 patients with VGAM, 22 patients were treated endovascularly between 1992 and 2010. In the last 10 years, a consecutive series of 14 children were treated with a combined transvenous and transarterial method. The therapeutic goal was immediate shunt reduction of the arteriovenous malformation, especially in the neonatal period. Closure of the fistulous connections was achieved by coiling using a combined transvenous and transarterial approach, called "kissing microcatheter technique"., Results: Eight of 14 children presented in the neonatal period with severe congestive heart failure. The other six patients presented between the age of 2 and 17 months. One patient died due to a non-procedural complication in another hospital 2 years after the last treatment. Complete or >90% of angiographically confirmed closure of the malformation was documented in 11 of 14 patients. Normal or near-normal outcome was achieved in 9 of 13 surviving children, a non-favorable outcome was observed in four children. Control of heart failure was achieved in all patients., Conclusion: Endovascular treatment of VGAM using a combined transvenous and transarterial method is a safe procedure with a low complication rate. The overall outcome can be improved, especially in the high-risk neonatal group with congestive heart failure.

Abstract

Introduction: Tumors of the pancreatic head can infiltrate the superior mesenteric vein. In such cases, the deep veins of the lower limbs can serve as suitable autologous conduits for superior mesenteric vein reconstruction after its resection. Few data exist, however, describing the technique and the immediate patency of such reconstruction., Case Report: We present the case of a 70-year-old Caucasian man with a metachronous metastasis of colon cancer and infiltration of the uncinate pancreatic process, on the anterior surface of which the tumor was located. En bloc resection of the tumor was performed with resection of the superior mesenteric vein and reconstruction. A 10 cm segment of the superficial femoral vein was harvested for the reconstruction. The superficial femoral vein segment was inter-positioned in an end-to-end fashion. The post-operative conduit patency was documented ultrasonographically immediately post-operatively and after a six-month period. The vein donor limb presented subtle signs of post-operative venous hypertension with edema, which was managed with compression stockings and led to significant improvement after six months., Conclusion: In cases of exploratory laparotomies with high clinical suspicion of pancreatic involvement, the potential need for vascular reconstruction dictates the preparation for leg vein harvest in advance. The superficial femoral vein provides a suitable conduit for the reconstruction of the superior mesenteric vein. This report supports the uncomplicated nature of this technique, since few data exist about this type of reconstruction.

Abstract

Objective: Intracranial hypotension is a frequently misdiagnosed syndrome which is caused by reduced intracranial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure due to spontaneous spinal CSF leakage. We present our series of intracranial hypotension regarding especially the required diagnostic imaging and the treatment., Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 8 patients (5 males, 3 females, mean age 49 years) with postural and non-postural headache due to spinal CSF collection., Results: Cranial MRI showed diffuse pachymeningeal gadolinium enhancement in all cases. CSF leakage detected by gadolinium-enhanced MR cisternography could be either diffuse (n=5) or precisely located around a dural tear (n=3). All but one leakages were located at the thoracic spine. In 6 patients 40-65 mL of blood were injected through epidurally placed drainages. In 1 patient, a dural tear was sealed with fibrin glue and fat. One patient refused surgical intervention. One epidural haematoma had to be revised. 5 of 7 patients showed excellent results., Conclusion: Gadolinium-enhanced MR cisternography best revealed CSF leaks. In the majority of patients with spontaneous intracranial hypotension, complete recovery may be achieved via a midthoracic epidural blood patch with minimal complications., ((c) Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart .

Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate the sensitivity of 16-detector row computed tomographic (CT) angiography in diagnosis of intracranial aneurysms and to determine whether multidetector CT angiography provides sufficient diagnostic information to guide endovascular treatment, with combined imaging and clinical data as the reference standard., Materials and Methods: Institutional review board approval and informed consent were obtained. Eighty-seven patients clinically suspected of having subarachnoid hemorrhage underwent multidetector CT angiography and digital subtraction angiography (DSA). Aneurysm detection with multidetector CT angiography and DSA was analyzed on a per-patient and a per-aneurysm basis. For each aneurysm deemed ruptured on multidetector CT angiograms, the same multidetector CT angiography data set was used to determine whether the aneurysm was suitable for endovascular coil placement or whether a neurosurgical procedure was preferable. Criteria were based on neck width in relation to aneurysm size and the presence of vessels originating from the aneurysm. Results were compared with actual treatment that had been performed in each aneurysm after full diagnostic work-up, including DSA. Sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values for aneurysm presence were determined., Results: The reference standard revealed 84 aneurysms in 63 patients. Multidetector CT angiography was used to correctly identify 62 of 63 patients with 80 of 84 aneurysms and to correctly rule out aneurysms in 24 patients. DSA was used to correctly identify 62 of 63 patients with 79 of 84 aneurysms and to correctly rule out aneurysms in 23 patients. Per patient, the sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values, respectively, for presence of aneurysm(s) were 98%, 100%, 100%, and 96% for multidetector CT angiography and 98%, 100%, 98%, and 96% for DSA. Per aneurysm, the possibility of coil embolization was correctly assessed with multidetector CT angiography in 69 (93%) of 74 target aneurysms for acute occlusive treatment., Conclusion: Multidetector CT angiography offers high diagnostic accuracy-equivalent to that of DSA-in the detection of intracranial aneurysms. Also, the possibility of coil embolization can be reliably determined with multidetector CT angiography.

Abstract

Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) is still considered the gold standard for most applications in neurovascular imaging. However, with the ongoing development of cross-sectional imaging modalities DSA is increasingly being replaced by less invasive methods. This contribution describes the diagnostic value and the increasing potential of computed tomography angiography (CTA) and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) in the diagnosis and follow-up of intracranial aneurysms. The main role of CTA is in the diagnosis and therapy planning of ruptured aneurysms; in contrast, MRA plays an increasingly important role in the screening for asymptomatic aneurysms (especially in cases of familial subarachnoid hemorrhage) and in the follow-up after endovascular therapy with coils and/or intracranial stents. Technical issues concerning examination technique are covered here as well as an approach to advanced postprocessing of the image data. Furthermore, a brief outlook on the impact of new developments (MRA with parallel imaging and at 3.0 T) is given.

Abstract

Purpose: To compare three tube voltages in digital selenium radiography for the detection of simulated interstitial lung disease, nodules, and catheters., Materials and Methods: Simulated catheters, nodules, and ground-glass, linear, miliary, and reticular patterns were superimposed over an anthropomorphic chest phantom. Digital selenium radiography was performed with different tube voltages (70, 90, and 150 kVp). Hard-copy images were generated. Detection performance of five radiologists was compared by using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis involving 54,000 observations., Results: The detection of ground-glass, linear, miliary, and reticular patterns over lucent lung and of nodules equal to, smaller than, and larger than 10 mm increased when 70 kVp and/or 90 kVp was used. However, only the reticular pattern was significantly better detected at lower peak voltage (P <.05). Simulated catheters and nodules over the mediastinum showed smaller areas under the ROC curve at lower peak voltage. These results were not statistically significant (P >.05)., Conclusion: The diagnostic performance of digital selenium radiography at lower peak voltage is at least as good as that at higher peak voltage for interstitial lung disease over lucent lung. Performance is equivalent for nodules and catheters over obscured chest regions at lower peak voltages compared with that at 150 kVp. Our results implicate that the use of high-voltage technique in digital selenium radiography should be reassessed., (Copyright RSNA, 2004)

Abstract

Rationale and Objectives: To evaluate a large area, cesium iodide amorphous silicon flat-panel detector (CsI/a-Si) at 3 tube voltages to detect simulated interstitial lung disease, nodules, and catheters., Methods: Simulated interstitial lung disease, nodules, and catheters were superimposed over a chest phantom. Images were generated at 125 kVp, 90 kVp, and 70 kVp at the same surface dose and reduced effective dose equivalent for 90 kVp and 70 kVp and printed on hard copies. Fifty-four thousand observations were analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC)., Results: Detectability of linear, miliary, reticular pattern, and nodules over lucent lung as well as of catheters and nodules over obscured chest areas increased at 90 and/or 70 kVp with higher Az values; however, only it was statistically significant for reticular pattern at 70 kVp and nodules at 90 kVp compared with 125 kVp (P < 0.05). The detection of ground-glass pattern was worse at lower kVp (P > 0.05)., Conclusion: For most simulated patterns, differences in diagnostic performance at 70 kVp/90 kVp and 125 kVp were not significant, except for reticular pattern and nodules over lucent lung.

Abstract

Purpose: To compare the accuracy of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging scores with that of 3-(iodine 123)-L-alpha-methyltyrosine ((123)I-IMT) single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in the noninvasive grading of untreated gliomas., Materials and Methods: The study comprised 15 patients with low-grade gliomas (grades I-II, according to World Health Organization criteria) and 33 patients with high-grade gliomas (grades III-IV). The lesions were evaluated by using an MR imaging score based on nine criteria. The (123)I-IMT uptake was quantified as the ratio between the amino acid uptake in the tumor and that in the contralateral hemisphere. To test for potentially significant differences in diagnostic performance between contrast material-enhanced MR imaging and (123)I-IMT SPECT, binormal receiver operating characteristic curves were fitted to the data and compared by using the area test., Results: The accuracy of MR imaging in the noninvasive grading of untreated gliomas was higher than that of (123)I-IMT SPECT (88% vs 79%). However, the difference in diagnostic performance was not significant on the basis of findings at receiver operating characteristic analysis (P >.2). Neither MR imaging nor (123)I-IMT SPECT allowed differentiation between high-grade gliomas (grades III and IV)., Conclusion: Although (123)I-IMT uptake is significantly higher in high-grade gliomas than in low-grade gliomas, the performance of (123)I-IMT SPECT adds little to the accuracy of determining tumor grade when MR imaging is performed., (Copyright RSNA, 2002)

Abstract

Background: Primary angiitis of the central nervous system (PACNS) is a rare disease. The definite diagnosis is made upon proof of mononuclear inflammation of the vessel wall on brain biopsy. The diagnosis can also be established on clinical grounds, typical findings on intra-arterial angiography and other investigatory grounds excluding other diseases. Therapy comprises an aggressive immunosuppressive approach. Close monitoring of the patients is mandatory. Transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD) has not yet been used to follow up the vasculitic lesions in PACNS., Case: We report on a 32-year-old female with massive cerebral infarctions secondary to multiple large-vessel stenoses because of probable PACNS. The patient was followed closely by means of TCD. During therapy the cerebral blood flow velocities normalized as displayed by TCD. Clinical improvement followed several days after normalization of cerebral blood flow., Conclusions: TCD is a valuable noninvasive bedside tool to monitor cerebral blood flow velocities and therapy response in patients with cerebral vasculitis, if large arteries are involved., (Copyright 2002 S.

Abstract

Background and Purpose: One application of functional MR imaging is to identify the primary sensorimotor cortex (M1 and S1) around the central sulcus before brain surgery. However, it has been shown that undesirable coactivation of nonprimary motor areas, such as the supplementary motor area and the premotor area, can interfere with the identification of the primary motor cortex, especially in patients with distorted anatomic landmarks. We therefore sought to design a simple functional MR imaging paradigm for selective activation of the primary sensorimotor cortex., Methods: Different paradigms using finger tapping for motor activation were examined and compared with respect to the distribution of activated voxels in primary and nonprimary cortical areas. Studies were conducted in 14 healthy volunteers using a blood oxygen level-dependent multislice echo-planar imaging sequence., Results: The most selective activation of the primary sensorimotor cortex was obtained with a paradigm combining right-sided finger tapping as the activation condition with left-sided finger tapping as the control condition. Analysis of the signal time course of primary and nonprimary areas revealed that the highly selective primary motor activation was due to it being restricted to contralateral finger movements, as opposed to the nonprimary motor areas, which were activated by ipsilateral, contralateral, and bilateral finger movements alike., Conclusion: When performing functional MR imaging to determine the location of the primary sensorimotor cortex, one should compare unilateral voluntary movements as the activation condition with contralateral movements as the control condition to accentuate activation of the primary motor area and to suppress undesirable coactivation of nonprimary motor areas.

Abstract

The cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) in the basal arteries during a word-generation task was assessed by functional transcranial Doppler ultrasonography (fTCD) and by functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). The study investigates how event-related CBFV modulations in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) relate to regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) changes. Both fMRI and fTCD were used in 13 subjects (7 men, 6 women, aged 21 to 44 years). The maximum difference of relative CBFV changes between the left and right MCA during the word-generation task was used as the language laterality index (LIfTCD). For the fMRI examination during the nearly identical language task, the corresponding index was defined by LIfMRI = 100(N(L) - N(R))/(N(L) + N(R)), where N(L) and N(R) refer to the numbers of voxels activated in the left and right hemisphere, respectively. The evoked CBFV changes expressed by LIfTCD and the corresponding laterality index, LIfMRI, estimated by fMRI showed a close linear relation (regression analysis: r = 0.95, p < 0.0001). The results of this study demonstrate that language-related velocity changes in the MCAs relate to rCBF increases in a linear fashion. Since the laterality indices assessed by fMRI and fTCD are in such close agreement both techniques can therefore be used in a complementary way.

Abstract

It was the aim of this study to determine the influence of non-invasive magnetic stimulation on the performance of a visually induced reaction task. The experiment was performed in 8 healthy volunteers. After a visual stimulus subjects had to move their thumbs as soon as possible. The muscular reaction was recorded with surface EMG on both sides. After the visual go-signal a magnetic stimulus (Fig. 8 coil) was applied above the right or left motor cortex at varying time intervals (30 and 110 ms). The magnetic stimulus was randomly given or not. Short time intervals between visual and magnetic stimulus induced a shortening, long intervals induced a prolongation of the reaction time. The contralateral reaction time was always longer than the ipsilateral one. Compared with the reaction times without magnetic stimulation, the intraindividual standard deviation of the reaction times was markedly reduced by the application of the magnetic stimulation. This reduction was greater in ipsilateral than in contralateral recordings. The kind of the instruction had additional modifying effects.

Abstract

Somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) were elicited by magnetic stimulation of the tibial nerve, gastrocnemic muscle and by stimulation over the spinous processes of lumbar vertebra 5 (L 5), thoracic vertebra 9 (Th 9) and cervical vertebra 7 (C 7). The first SEP-positivity (P1-latency) was measured in a group of 20 controls and in another group of 18 patients with syringomyelia. The P1-latencies of the latter group following the stimulations over Th 9 and C 7 were significantly longer than those of the controls. Furthermore a correlation between electrophysiological findings and clinical data of the patients could be proven. Thus the method emerged as an appropriate tool for the investigation of the central part of the sensory system and for the diagnosis of spinal abnormalities.

Abstract

In order to determine the function of the autonomic nervous system in syringomyelia, the sympathetic skin response (SSR) was performed in 13 patients with syringomyelia and 20 healthy controls. SSR was recorded from both palms and soles. In patients with syringomyelia, we found absent responses, prolonged latencies and reduced amplitudes. SSRs could be recorded in 15 out of the examined 26 upper extremities. The latencies were prolonged in 12 of these cases. In the lower limbs, 11 SSRs could be obtained. In 4 of these cases the latencies were prolonged. The SSR latencies recorded from the palms and soles were both significantly prolonged (p < 0.05) and the amplitudes were reduced (p < 0.05) as compared to normal persons. Our data strongly suggest involvement of the autonomic nervous system in syringomyelia as assessed by the SSR response (in upper and lower extremities). In our patients, the extent of autonomic dysfunction was not related to the stage or the duration of disease.

Abstract

To determine a possible involvement of the autonomic nervous system in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), measurement of the sympathetic skin response (SSR) was performed in 15 patients with definite ALS. Findings were compared with those in 20 normal controls. In ALS patients the mean SSR latencies recorded from the palms and soles were both significantly prolonged (p < 0.05) and the amplitudes were reduced as compared with normal persons. In 5 patients, SSR potentials were completely lacking in one or even more extremities. Our data strongly suggest subclinical involvement of the autonomic nervous system in ALS as assessed by the SSR response. In our patients the extent of autonomic dysfunction was not related to the stage or the duration of disease.

Abstract

Three-dimensional MR tomography was used to examine the relationship between symptoms of trigeminal neuralgia and neurovascular compression of the nerve in 18 patients. The intensity of neurovascular interaction was classified according to neuroradiological criteria. We found that a radiologically defined compression or dislocation of the nerve by an artery was always associated with symptoms of trigeminal neuralgia. A simple contact between vessel and nerve, however, was also observed on the asymptomatic sides of 10 out of 18 patients. In 6 of 18 patients, in contrast, trigeminal neuralgia was present in spite of the absence of neurovascular contact. In accordance with a cited study based on autopsy and intraoperative findings, our findings indicate that, in a certain proportion of cases, trigeminal neuralgia may be caused by neurovascular compression alone, whereas in other cases, other pathogenetic factors may be involved to a varying degree or be even exclusively responsible for the development of trigeminal neuralgia. The possible significance of the method for a preoperative estimation of the success of microvascular decompression of the trigeminal nerve is discussed.

Abstract

Preterm births continue to be the leading cause of perinatal mortality despite efforts to prevent preterm labor. Tocolytic therapy with beta-mimetic drugs was believed to be the solution for preterm labor, but the Canadian Preterm Labor Investigators Group recently reported that the use of ritodrine had no significant beneficial effect. Despite the various methods presently used for the management of preterm labor and prevention of premature delivery, the incidence of preterm birth remains unchanged. Health professionals must remain optimistic, however, and continue to investigate causes, whether they are social or medical, and to seek the unknown. Nursing personnel should play an important role in this area as health promoters and educators of patients. Nurses should also collaborate with other health professionals to determine effectiveness of therapy and the causes of preterm labor. For instance, this author is currently involved in a research project seeking barriers to prenatal care using a questionnaire and reviewing maternal records in order to determine length of labor and its relationship to subsequent preterm labors. The goals of the Year 2000 National Health Objective for low birth weight and infant mortality are not likely to be attained. Prematurity has gained national attention, however, and with public and professional awareness, perhaps this problem will decrease.

Abstract

We studied the impact of unwed status on infant mortality in the state of Iowa, where obstetric and newborn care is readily accessible. Our purpose was to document the extent of the contribution of unwed status to infant mortality and to compare unwed gravidas with their married counterparts. We hoped the comparisons would provide information that could be used for future programs of prevention. Our data encompassed a 10-year period (1977-1986) during which the incidence of infant deaths occurring in offspring of unmarried women was significantly greater than expected. The unwed population commonly consisted of younger, poorly educated, primigravid women who frequently did not seek prenatal care. We suggest that personal factors inherent in this group of women may be more operative than lack of access to perinatal care in determining pregnancy outcome. We believe our data underscore the need to redouble efforts to prevent unintended pregnancy.

Abstract

Comparisons of perinatal outcome data among regions or hospitals can be misleading if the risk status of the population served is not considered. Data are presented from two large perinatal centers (Medical Center Hospital in San Antonio, Texas, and University of Iowa Hospitals in Iowa City, Iowa), which report substantially different institutional neonatal and fetal mortality rates. However, examination of neonatal and fetal mortality by birth weight groupings demonstrates the difference between outcome in the two hospitals to be considerably less than the overall rates might imply. Additional data about the regionalized system of care in Iowa are presented to illustrate why mortality may rise in a referral center and yet be consistent with a salutary effect on perinatal outcome in the region.
