Five erythrocyte proteins (Adenosine deaminase, Ada; 6-Phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, Pgd; Esterase 1, Es-1; Esterase 3, Es-3; NADH-Diaphorase 2, Dia-2) and a serum beta-globulin protein (Esterase 7, Est-7) were studied in rabbits using starch gel electrophoresis. Samples were obtained from 317 Spanish Common individuals (38 families, 317 individuals). For the analyses of linkage, Morton's sequential probability ratio test was applied. Clear evidence for linkage between Es-1 and Est-7 (theta 0.2) was obtained, and no evidence of linkage was obtained for the remaining pairwise combinations of loci studied.
The methodology presented here was developed for simulating planned alloimmunization results, with regard to the type and number of expected antibody specificities. The computer program designed for this purpose was adapted to an immunogenetic model using Boolean algebra. It was written to help immunogeneticists avoid handling routine data preceding selection of donor-recipient pairs, specially concerning blood type alloimmunizations in animals: all of the donor-recipient combinations and the expected antibody specificities (their limit number being specified in each particular immunization program) are provided in the print-out.
INTRODUCTION: Primary wide angle glaucoma (PWAG) is the commonest form of this disorder. It is initially asymptomatic, until there has been considerable visual field loss. Personality changes have been described in patients with wide angle glaucoma, with a significant percentage of developing dementia or a tendency to react defensively. The P300 endogenous evoked potential is related to memory/attention to work. INTRODUCTION: To evaluate, in PWAG, the probable occurrence of a disorder of visual processing due to alteration in the attention/working memory and its neuronal network, using the P300 visual cognitive evoked potential in correlation with Lobo s cognitive mini exam (CME). PATIENTS AND METHODS: We selected 68 patients with PWAG and 68 controls, of both sexes, aged between 50 and 65 years. The CME was done after taking the clinical history, and then an electroretinogram, visual evoked potential using the alternating dameres (ERGd and VEPd) and P300 potential (passive odd ball). Statistical analysis was done using the t test, one way ANOVA and discriminating analysis. RESULTS: The amplitude on ERGd and latency on VEPd were significantly altered. Patients with glaucoma had lower scores on CME. Regarding the P300 wave, latency was the most significant parameter, whilst the amplitude and site were less well defined. PATIENTS AND METHODS: In PWAG a process of visual cognitive dysfunction occurs and affects memory/attention to work in a way which is not only due to the peripheral visual effect.
