We investigated whether the type of antipsychotic treatment has an impact on patients’ subjective quality of life (QoL).
In a prospective naturalistic long-term study, 374 patients meeting ICD-10 criteria for schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder were examined biannually over a two-year period with regards to QoL, psychopathology, social functioning, use of medical and psychosocial services, compliance, side effects and current neuroleptic treatment. QoL was assessed by the Berliner Lebensqualitätsprofil (BeLP), an adaption of the Lancashire Quality of Life Profile. First examination took place two weeks around discharge from a psychiatric clinic. At study entry, all participants were receiving neuroleptic medication of either quetiapine, risperidone or olanzapine. Mixed regression analysis taking into account the unbalanced panel structure of the data and adjusted for selection bias by means of propensity scores were used for data analysis.
Overall quality of life improved continuously during the two years observed period regardless of the type of neuroleptic. A small, but significant difference emerged when comparing quetiapine monotherapy treatment with olanzapine monotherapy or with a combination treatment of conventional and atypical antipsychotics. QoL of patients treated with olanzapine was generally worse than that of patients treated with quetiapine but improved slightly more over the course of time. In total time and type of medication explained only small proportions of variance in QoL.
Type of neuroleptic had only marginal impact on the subjective QoL of our sample. In order to explain changes in quality of life, research on social and individual factors seems to be more promising.

Objectives
Collecting prospective data on medication adherence, course of illness, course of treatment, cost effectiveness and quality of life among patients with schizophrenia under the German health system.
MethodsThe ELAN study was conducted as a multi-centre, non-interventional observation study. 374 patients with a diagnosis of schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder (ICD-10 F2) who had been discharged with a medication of quetiapine (N=183), olanzapine (N=91) or risperidone (N=100) were included. Follow-up interviews were conducted after 6,12,18 and 24 months. Applied instruments comprised PANSS, MARS-S, EPS-M, AIMS-S, GAF, ZST and a questionnaire for quality of life.
ResultsFor each follow-up, at least 80% of the original sample could be included. After two years, between 39% and 43% of patients continued to take the drug prescribed at discharge. Only between 4% and 7% of patients received no neuroleptic treatment in the last 6 months, respectively. The variety of drugs used increased during the course. Only small differences could be found regarding the defined outcome measures (PANSS, GAF, rehospitalisation rate) and side effects. Changes in medication were mostly due to insufficient efficacy or side effects. Doctor's recommendations had an important influence on patients’ decisions.
ConclusionsUnder conditions of routine treatment, medication adherence was much greater and differences between drugs were smaller than reported in randomised controlled clinical trials. Taking into account the low sample selection bias and the small percentage of lost-to-follow-up subjects, this study provides some new insight into routine clinical treatment and outcomes in patients with schizophrenia.

The ELAN study is a prospective multi centre observational trial on the effectiveness and safety of long-term antipsychotic treatment of people with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorders with quetiapine in comparison to olanzapine and risperidone under real world treatment conditions.
374 adult persons with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder prescribed antipsychotic maintenance therapy with quetiapine, olanzapine or risperidone were included at discharge from inpatient treatment. Psychotropic regimen, psychopathological symptoms, general and cognitive functioning, negative side-effects and quality of life were assessed before discharge and at 6, 12, 18 and 24 month follow-up assessments. Intention-to-treat analyses and crossover analyses were conducted by mixed-effects regression models including random linear time effects and time x treatment effects, controlling for baseline differences and additional psychotropic medication and using propensity scores to control for selection bias.
As indicated by significant linear time effects the patients improved with regard to psychopathological symptoms, general functioning, subjective quality of life and cognitive processing speed. No change of extrapyramidal motor side-effects, body mass index or waist circumference was obtained. The lack of any significant time x treatment interaction effects indicated no differences in the safety or effectiveness between the three antipsychotics. Nevertheless, the average hospital admission rate of patients receiving olanzapine was lower in comparison to patients receiving quetiapine or risperidone.

The potential losses from spray applications of glyphosate [N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine] with and without the inclusion of a polymer thickening agent were evaluated in field tests, applied under identified weather conditions with a boom-nozzle ground sprayer, helicopter, and fixed-wing aircraft. The downwind transport and diffusion of the spray loss was assessed by means of Mylar fallout sheets, high volume air samplers, and 4-leaf wheat (Triticum aestivum L. ‘Anza’) plants. Lowest drift losses occurred, under 0.01 g/ha on fallout sheets at 100 m, with deflector fan nozzles (KGF) operating at a low pressure (7 kPa) on the ground sprayer. Drift losses from a helicopter equipped with micro-jet nozzles were only slightly higher, less than 0.03 g/ha on fallout sheets at 100 m. Drift losses from 8003 nozzles mounted on a ground sprayer and D-6 jet nozzles directed back on fixed wing aircraft produced much higher drift deposits, from 0.2 to 1.0 g/ha on fallout sheets at 100 m. The highest levels of drift losses were obtained with D-4 jet nozzles directed down on a helicopter, 5 g/ha on fallout sheets at 100 m. Some evidence of reduced airborne drift was apparent where the polymer thickening agent was used with aircraft and ground equipment. The test results indicate that significant reduction in drift losses were obtained with proper application equipment; however, the use of a polymer thickening agent reduced drift only slightly for certain applications.

Excised leaves of Canada thistle (Cirsium arvense (L.) Scop.) ecotypes and bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L., var. Red Kidney) metabolized 3-amino-l,2,4-triazole-14C (amitrole) to the same radiolabeled products, but they were produced at different rates as shown by thin-layer and paper chromatography. Bean leaves metabolized amitrole to a metabolic product (Unknown II) probably β-(3-amino-1,2,4-triazolyl-1-) α-alanine approximately three times taster than Canada thistle leaves, while Canada thistle converted Unknown II to another product (Unknown I) about 10 times faster than did bean. Thus Unknown II accumulated in bean, and Unknown I in Canada thistle. This reaction sequence in Canada thistle was evidently an irreversible consecutive first order reaction. A difference in the rate of metabolism was observed between susceptible and resistant ecotypes of Canada thistle.

Several factors were studied which influenced 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole (amitrole) metabolism in excised leaves of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L., var. Red Kidney) and Canada thistle (Cirsium arvense (L.) Scop.) ecotypes. Amitrole metabolism in the leaves of both species held in the light was greater than in leaves held in the dark. Increasing the temperature from 15 C to 28 C also stimulated the rate of metabolism of amitrole. However, this effect was much less pronounced when the temperature was increased from 22 C to 28 C. Dipping the leaves in 10−2M ammonium thiocyanate reduced the metabolism of amitrole, whereas similar pre-treatment with 3.5 × 10−3M 6N-benzyladenine enhanced the metabolism of amitrole.

Older age is one stage of the lifecourse where dignity maybe threatened due to the vulnerability created by increased incapacity, frailty and cognitive decline in combination with a lack of social and economic resources. Evidence suggests that it is in contact with health and welfare services where dignity is most threatened. This study explored the experiences of older people in acute National Health Service (NHS) Trusts in relation to dignified care and the organisational, occupational and cultural factors that affect it. These objectives were examined through an ethnography of four acute hospital Trusts in England and Wales, which involved interviews with older people (65+) recently discharged from hospital, their relatives/carers, and Trust managers, practitioners and other staff, complemented by evidence from non-participant observation. The picture which emerged was of a lack of consistency in the provision of dignified care which appears to be explained by the dominance of priorities of the system and organisation tied together with the interests of ward staff and clinicians. The emphasis on clinical specialism meant that staff often lacked the knowledge and skills to care for older patients whose acute illness is often compounded by physical and mental co-morbidities. The physical environment of acute wards was often poorly designed, confusing and inaccessible, and might be seen as ‘not fit for purpose’ to treat their main users, those over 65 years, with dignity. Informants generally recognised this but concluded that it was the older person who was in the ‘wrong place’, and assumed that there must be a better place for ‘them’. Thus, the present system in acute hospitals points to an inbuilt discrimination against the provision of high-quality care for older people. There needs to be a change in the culture of acute medicine so that it is inclusive of older people who have chronic co-morbidities and confusion as well as acute clinical needs.

Polymeric beads are valuable tools for a variety of applications in chemistry, e.g. separation and synthesis support. A common property of all applications is, that diffusion processes and mass transport balances play an important part and are heavily dependent upon matrix parameters such as crosslinking. We have applied 1H and 19F-microscopy to monitor diffusion processes in differently crosslinked polystyrene beads (CL-PS). MRI is used primarily as a medical diagnostic method, but has begun to find increasing application in material science, including studies of fluids in polymers [1,2].

R. C. Kirby and W. B. R. Lickorish have proved (cf. (4)) that any classical knot is concordant to an indecomposable knot. In the present note we show that this statement is also true for higher dimensional knots: more precisely, for any higher-dimensional knot K there exist infinitely many non-isotopic indecomposable simple knots which are concordant to K. This, together with the result of Kirby and Lickorish, gives a complete solution of problem 13 of (1).

This paper proposes a model that a dealer or investor may employ in determining
• The potential investment value of a debt instrument,
• The potential gains in net after-tax yield which result from swaps, and
• The trade-off, effective, after-tax yield on a municipal vs a taxable corporate bond of the same quality or rating.

Four new biodegradable alkylpolyoxyethylene glycol surfactants (15-S-9, DN-65, 15-S-3, and 15-S-3A) provided excellent visual wetting of corn foliage in spray solutions of 1,1′-dimethyl-4,4′-bipyridinium salt (paraquat), 2,2-dichloropropionic acid (dalapon), and 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole (amitrole) and many combinations were equal or superior to standard surfactants Tween 20, X-77, and Osamul 95 in enhancing phytotoxicity. Exceptions were observed, apparently due to specific but incompletely understood herbicide-surfactant-plant surface interactions. All four biodegradable surfactants and Osamul 95 were slightly toxic when sprayed alone on corn foliage.
