Mutation tam38 of Paramecium tetraurelia is a nuclear recessive mutation with a pleiotropic effect on both trichocyst morphogenesis and nuclear processes. The analysis of the defective nuclear processes (micronuclear and macronuclear divisions, nuclear reorganization at autogamy) shows that these defects result from an abnormal localization of the nuclei. Phenocopies of tam38 abnormalities can be obtained by vinblastine treatment of wild-type cells at late stages of division. Taking into account the similarity between tam38 and a series of other mutations which also prevent trichocyst attachment to the cell surface and disturb nuclear divisions, the following interpretation is proposed: the absence of attached trichocyst induces structural changes in the plasma membrane or in the cortical region which disturb the normal cortical control of the localization of nuclei.

In Paramecium aurelia, syngen 4, gene ts21m, which is shown to segregate normally and independently of two other genes: ts111 and m1; is closely linked to gene ts401. The frequency of then recombination is of the order of a few per cent. Genetic analysis was carried out to confirm the genotypes of both double mutants and wild-type recombinants among F2 clones from crosses ts21m × ts401. This is the first case of linkage so far reported in P. aurelia.

Objectives:
Acute compartment syndrome (ACS) is a limb-threatening condition often first diagnosed by emergency physicians. Little is known about the rapidity with which permanent damage may occur. Our objective was to estimate the time to muscle necrosis in patients with ACS.
Methods:This historical cohort analysis of all patients who had a fasciotomy for ACS was conducted in 4 large teaching hospitals. Diagnosis was confirmed clinically or by needle measurement of compartment pressure. Muscle necrosis was determined using pathology reports and surgeons’ operative protocols. We used descriptive statistics and estimated tissue survival probability using the Vertex exchange method for interval-censored data.
Results:Between 1989 and 1997 there were 76 cases of ACS. Most cases occurred in young men (median age 32) as a result of a traumatic incident (82%). Forty-nine percent (37/76) of all patients suffered some level of muscle necrosis, and 30% (11/37) of those with necrosis lost more than 25% of the muscle belly. Necrosis occurred in 2 of 4 cases in which the patient had been operated on within 3 hours of the injury, and our exploratory survival analysis estimates that 37% (95% confidence interval, 13%-51%) of all cases of ACS may develop muscle necrosis within 3 hours of the injury.
Conclusions:This is the largest cohort of ACS and the first clinical estimation of time to muscle necrosis ever published. Ischemia from ACS can cause muscle necrosis before the 3-hour period post-trauma that is traditionally considered safe. Further research to identify risk factors associated with the development of early necrosis is necessary.

Objectives: This review included the following objectives: a) to synthesize recommendations made by public agencies in Western countries concerning screening for osteoporosis; b) to compare these recommendations and sort out the similarities and discrepancies; and c) to propose a strategy for the fight against osteoporosis and fragility fractures.
Methods: Eleven reports published by publicly financed agencies were included in the analysis: three international, four North American and four European agencies. Transcriptions of recommendations and arguments were classified using criteria for evaluation of screening technologies.
Results: Of eight reports that made a recommendation on mass screening, four made a recommendation against the use of densitometry, two remained vague with a conditionally positive recommendation, and two made no recommendation, arguing insufficient scientific evidence. Concerning screening of asymptomatic women in the perimenopause period, recommendations were uniformly opposed to the use of bone densitometry in five of nine reports, and the other four made no recommendation, arguing insufficient scientific evidence. Some of the discrepancies can be explained by the different definitions given to osteoporosis and by the confusion of terms between screening and diagnostic testing. A strategy is proposed to ensure that all women who are at risk of osteoporosis and fragility fracture have access to preventive measures. This strategy is based on the complementarity and coordination of roles between health promotion interventions and clinical interventions.
Conclusions: Prevention of osteoporosis and fragility fractures is an attainable goal. Existing resources are currently badly targeted. Compromises must be negotiated between the different stakeholders and biomedical disciplines to achieve efficiency and accessibility in the reduction of fragility fractures. A first compromise to reconcile social and scientific realities would be to use a best-evidence synthesis instead of an evidence-based medicine approach in future analyses and recommendations by public authorities. A second compromise would be to recognize the complementary roles of public health and clinical professionals toward the common objective of preventing fragility fractures.

Objective:
To identify where most efforts should be made to decrease ischemia time and necrosis in acute compartment syndrome (ACS) and to determine the causes for late interventions.
Methods:This was a multicentre, historical cohort study of patients who underwent fasciotomy for ACS within the McGill Teaching Hospitals between 1989 and 1997. Patients studied had a clinical diagnosis of ACS or compartment pressures greater than 30 mm Hg. In all cases, ACS was confirmed at the time of fasciotomy. Patients were stratified into traumatic and non-traumatic groups, and a step-by-step analysis was performed for each part of the process between injury and operation.
Results:Among the 62 traumatic ACS cases, the longest delays occurred between initial assessment and diagnosis (median time 2h56, range from 0 to 99h20) and between diagnosis and operation (median 2h13, range 0h15–29h45). Among the 14 non-traumatic ACS cases, delays primarily occurred between inciting event and hospital presentation (median 9h19, range 0h04–289h29) and between initial assessment and diagnosis (median 8h18, range 0–104h15).
Conclusions:ACS is a limb-threatening condition for which early intervention is critical. Substantial delays occur after the time of patient presentation. For traumatic and non-traumatic ACS, increased physician awareness and faster operating room access may reduce treatment delays and prevent disability.
