- In this study, patient records from 80 male patients, aged 43-76, undergoing first-time coronary artery bypass surgery were evaluated with regard to nurses' documentation on sleep during the first four postoperative days. This documentation was classified into descriptions of quality and quantity of sleep. Notations on sleep were found in 69-86% of patient records each night, and was most common the second night. Descriptions of both quality and quantity of sleep occurred in only 12 out of 320 patient-nights. Notes regarding duration of sleep were found for 146 patient-nights (45.6%), of which 103 (32.2%) contained sleep disturbances. Information on quality of sleep was given for 116 patient-nights (36.3%), with only 38 patient-nights (11.9%) of sleep disturbances. For 72 patient-nights, documentation of the patients' sleep was lacking. Frequent awakening was the most common sleep disturbances noted during all but the first night, when continuous awakening dominated. We conclude that the nurses' documentation regarding sleep and sleep disturbances varied over a wide range, with a mixture of quantitative and qualitative information, and that more structured descriptions are needed.

- The Clethraceae occurring in Ecuador are revised. Nine species of Clethra are recorded from Ecuador, two of which are described as new, viz. C. parallelinervia and C. crispa. Keys, descriptions and full specimen citation are provided and all species are illustrated.

Neutrophil control of formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine induced mobilization of secretory vesicles and NADPH-oxidase activation: Effect of an association of the ligand-receptor complex to the cytoskeleton
- 1994
-
Ingår i: Biochimica et Biophysica Acta. Molecular Cell Research. - : Elsevier. - 0167-4889 .- 1879-2596. ; 1224:1, s. 43-50

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The stimulus formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP) interacts with neutrophils and generates signal(s) in the cells that induces mobilization of the secretory vesicles as well as activation of the superoxide anion/hydrogen peroxide generating NADPH-oxidase. Binding, at 15°C, of FMLP to its neutrophil surface receptor is followed by an association of the ligand-receptor complex to the cell cytoskeleton, and this association occurs concomitant with a desensitization of the cells with respect to activation of the NADPH-oxidase. Other stimuli can still activate the oxidase (in fact even induce a primed response), indicating that the observed phenomenon is stimulus specific and could not be accounted for by an effect on the oxidase itself, but rather that the association of the ligand-receptor complex to the cytoskeleton eliminates the capacity of the complex to generate the signal(s) that activates the NADPH-oxidase. The cytoskeleton associated ligand-receptor complex generates, however, the signal(s) responsible for mobilization of the secretory vesicles, to the plasma membrane, and this mobilization occurs without any increase in the intracellular concentration of free Ca2+.
