17 IDENTIFICATION OF NATURAL SHORT AND LONG SLEEPERS Sanders J, Cropley M, Archer S, Dijk DJ Surrey Sleep Research Centre, University of Surrey, Guildford, GU2 7XP Introduction: Sleep duration varies among individuals and epidemiological studies have shown that both short and long sleep durations are associated with more frequent sleep problems and increased mortality. In these studies no distinction was made between natural short and long sleepers and people who have extreme sleep patterns because of social and other factors. Aim: To identify and characterise natural short and long sleepers. They were defined as having consistent i.e. during the week and weekend ; long sleep 8.5h ; or short sleep 6.5h being satisfied with their sleep quality and sleep duration; having no sleep or health problems. Methods: The study consisted of a stepwise recruitment and data collection protocol: 1. Development of selection methods and criteria. 2. Recruitment. 3. Analysis of selection data. 4. Field study protocol: 2.5 week sleep diary and actigraphy plus 2 nights of polysomnography PSG ; home recording. 5. Data analysis: Actual sleep timed averaged across all field study nights, PSG data was staged and spectral analysis performed. Results: 544 potential subjects were screened males n 174, females n 537, under 25yrs n 64, 25-35yrs n 414, over 35yrs n 60 ; . short, 7 average and 7 long sleepers were selected. Objective sleep measurement confirmed self-reported sleep duration from the selection data. Actual sleep duration showed significant differences in the long, short and average sleep groups. Conclusion: Natural short and long sleepers exist in the population and short sleepers are more difficult to identify than long sleepers and reglan.

[Mary Coughlan.] inspection in 2006, were all pre-notified to the farmer. The EU regulations governing the Single Payment Scheme would allow my Department to give pre-notification of inspection in all cases where certain elements of cross-compliance are involved e.g. the Nitrates Regulations. However, my Department is committed, in the Charter of Rights for Farmers 2005-2007 to carrying out all Single Payment Scheme and Disadvantaged Area Scheme checks during one single farm visit in most cases. This then obliges my Department to respect the advance notice requirements applicable to the most stringent element of the inspection regime viz. maximum of 48 hours notice but with no advance notice in a proportion of cases. My Department is also committed in the Charter of Rights to pursuing with the European Commission a strategy to deliver advance notification of 14 days for inspections. The matter has been raised with the Commission on a number of occasions since 2004, particularly in the context of the Irish situation where we are operating a fully decoupled and essentially area-dependent Single Payment Scheme. I have personally made the case again recently to Commissioner Fischer Boel and this issue will be a key point for Ireland in the CAP simplification initiative of the Commission which is now underway. My Department believes that pre-notification of Single Payment Scheme Disadvantaged Areas Scheme inspections fits in with the practicalities of Irish agriculture where increasingly, farmers are also engaged in off-farm employment. In a decoupled Single Payment Scheme system, the provision of advance notification of inspection to the farmer should not negatively impact on the effectiveness of the control. However, as the EU regulations stand, my Department is obliged to carry out a small proportion of inspections without prior notification and this is what was done in 2006. My Department is seeking authority to allow advance notification in all inspection cases for 2007 and I will continue to press this point in the CAP simplification process. I believe it is important to point out that the total level of cross compliance penalties in 2006 amounted to about \706, 203.38. This represents just 0.05% out of the total Single Payment financial envelope of more than \1.3 billion available to Ireland. Food Labelling. 181. Mr. J.

Identified by nominal numbers and the size of particles did not enter the figures explicitly. Rather, all evaluators must have assumed a specific impactor e.g., Anderson ; and specific flow rate e.g., 28.3 L min ; in order to impose specific particle sizes associated with the provided deposition sites. Dr. Bertha felt that some changes may be viewed by clinicians biopharmacists as more or less important depending on whether the product is a rescue medication e.g., a short-acting beta agonist ; or a chronic use medication e.g., a corticosteroid ; . Several participants felt that when the Reference product is more variable, differences in mean depositions between Test and Reference are less important. This feature is already included in the chi-square ratio test ; . Dr. Mitchell noted that the way an inhaler is presented to the impactor is not the same as it is presented to the patient; and in particular, the use of a spacer or holding chamber might render many of the profiles equivalent for clinical purposes. Dr. Byron also commented that clinical differences are difficult to observe with these products due to flat dose-response curves, and most of the profiles could therefore be considered equivalent from the clinical perspective. Dr. Adams clarified, however, that the Agency's contract research studies on Albuterol MDI had not involved a spacer, and a previously issued interim guidance, now withdrawn, providing in vivo bioequivalence recommendations on albuterol MDI did not recommend use of a spacer. A currently available guidance on comparative in vitro testing of metaproterenol sulfate and albuterol MDIs also does not involve a spacer.

I start by again stating that you can send your comments on any subject to me at CGBAKB aol . Someone did ask me why I entitled my column `Horse Sense.' In short, I pay homage to our horse farm in which my wife and I breed, train, and sell hunters, jumpers, show, and pleasure Arabian and Trakehner horses. If you see a soldier in the office with an ulcer from Iraq or Afghanistan, consider leishmania Over 670 soldiers serving in Iraq and Afghanistan have contracted leishmaniasis according to Dr. Naomi Aronson at Bethesda, Maryland Science News 2004; 166: 366 ; . Although two military personnel have come down with a potentially lethal form of this disease, most present with the common form in which the disease is limited to skin ulcers. Most soldiers average three sores apiece; one soldier had 47 lesions. The disease is most prevalent during the warm months when the sand flies are most active, especially in the northern parts of Iraq. The standard antimony-based drugs have proved useful for the condition. I suggest reviewing the textbooks and literature for specific therapies and dosing should you make such a diagnosis. The sterility of liquid nitrogen revisited Are you old enough to remember the liquid nitrogen scare of 1995? In the Lancet 1995; 345: 929 ; , three pathologists related that freezing with liquid nitrogen does not kill viruses like warts ; , but preserves them. They related in the article their method of viral culturing using liquid nitrogen to substantiate their claim. They proceeded to relate that viral hepatitis, human papillomavirus HPV ; , and HIV could be transmitted via the cotton tip applicator method used by dermatologists. Indeed, these California doctors suggested that the liquid nitrogen be changed and the canister cleaned between patient applications. Since this article was published, I have found only one contribution in the medical literature on this point by 3 Brits Lancet 1995; 345: 1369 ; who also note that herpes, HIV, and hepatitis B virus can survive freezing and remain viable in liquid nitrogen. They found virus particles by electron microscopy from cotton swabs that had been used to treat warts and in the flasks used in the dermatology clinic. They also referenced a case JAMA 1971; 218: 1435 ; in which HPV was transmitted by cryotherapy to a different patient. In truth, the entire topic of warts continues to be quite confusing. Taking a few statements from my article on warts recently published in the International Journal of Dermatology 2004; 43: 548 ; : -With polymerase chain reaction PCR ; testing, the wart virus is routinely found on psoriasis, skin cancer, hair, and normal skin If a degenerate consensus PCR was available for all the various types of warts, the virus would be found to be a normal inhabitant of all epithelial tissues. -Recent studies have detected HPV routinely in the vaginal area in prepubital girls and in virgins. This is because the virus colonizes the entire human skin and mucosal surfaces soon after birth. -Examining actual cutaneous warts by PCR, one finds two or more distinct HPV types in over 94% of lesions. I conclude with a comment that Yogi Berra might have said, "Warts are not only ubiquitous, they are everywhere!" The purity of liquid nitrogen revisited On some visits, patients treated with cryotherapy complain that they are experiencing more pain than on previous occasions. This of course could represent increased nerve sensitivity or different neurotransmission from the damaged tissue, but interestingly, it could represent variances in the liquid nitrogen.

In FOTON module 2 the national research teams conducted case studies of the local innovation capabilities of firms which have been subjected to foreign takeovers. Two case studies of selected firms and their surrounding innovation systems have been carried out in each country, one within the pharmaceutical industry and one within the software industry. For practical reasons, the software industry is taken to include ICT companies producing software as part of a wider service or product range. The main aim of the case studies has been to assess whether there has been a competence drain or competence gain as a consequence of the takeovers. In this context we have studied whether and how the foreign takeovers have affected R&D activities, the knowledge base and the general learning and innovation processes in the firms acquired and whether these in-firm processes have had an impact upon the knowledge base and innovation activities of the actors surrounding the acquired firm. There are several reasons why the pharmaceutical and software industries were selected as case study industries. One reason is that they are both socalled high-tech industries with a high level of R&D and innovation in general, and thereby represent dynamic forces for innovation in the innovation systems in which they function. The pharmaceutical and software industries are furthermore growth industries and adequately represented in the various Nordic countries, which allow for comparisons across the region. The pharmaceutical industry is characterized by many rather large companies, and the selected case studies reflect this fact. As regards the software industry, the cases selected tend to represent small and medium sized companies rather than large firms. Firstly, the project aimed at uncovering what happens with existing R&D and other innovation activities in firms acquired by multinational enterprises MNEs ; . Important questions in relation to the case companies were: Is there a tendency for R&D functions and innovation capabilities more generally ; to be relocated or centralized to the MNE headquarters, or do such activities remain in the acquired firm? What are the reasons for the strategic choices of the MNE? Are innovation capabilities regarded an embedded part of the local firm? What innovation enhancing knowledge and resources may be transferred from the MNE to the firm in question? Is this dissemination a result of technology transfer or the transfer of other resources from the MNE to the host economy? How are the MNE's knowledge and resources taken up and utilized by the acquired firm to enhance innovation? and methoxsalen. ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: To assess the utilization of leukotriene modifiers LM ; relative to national guidelines and to investigate possible emergency room utilization differences for LMs as monotherapy versus inhaled corticosteroid ICS ; monotherapy or combination ICS and LM therapy. METHODS: The utilization of leukotriene modifiers montelukast sodium, zafirlukast, and zileuton ; , concurrent inhaled steroids beclomethasone, budesonide, flunisolide, fluticasone, and triamcinolone ; , beta-agonists albuterol, bitolterol, formoterol, isoetharine, levalbuterol, metaproterenol, pirbuterol, salmeterol, and terbutaline ; and low-sedating antihistamines [LSAs] cetirizine, desloratadine, fexofenadine, and loratadine ; were assessed from the drug claims database of a large health insurer for dates of service for the 12-month period from September 1, 2001, through August 31, 2002. New-start LM patients were identified as having no previous LM drug claim within a 180-day look-back period from the first date of fill for the LM. Claims were stratified into age cohorts of "under 16 years" and "16 years and older." Emergency room ER ; claims for patients utilizing LMs, ICSs, and patients on both LM and ICS were retrieved for analysis from the medical claims database for the same 12-month study period. RESULTS: More than 89% of new LM starts had no history of an ICS in the claims database. Overall, 61% of all new and existing ; LM patients did not have a claim for an ICS in their drug claims profile during the study period. An estimated 25% of LM utilization was not for asthma. No differences in ER utilization were found between ICS users and LM users; however, the ER utilization rate 0.090 ER visits per patient per year ; was lower with combination therapy compared with monotherapy with ICS 0.110 ER visits per patient per year, P 0.001 ; or LM 0.119 emergency room visits per patient per year, P 0.001 ; . CONCLUSIONS: The majority of LM use in this health plan was initial monotherapy, contrary to national treatment guidelines for asthma. At the time of the study, the apparent off-label use of LM for allergic rhinitis was significant for this health plan.
