Abstract Among chemical derivatives of rubber, there is a type to which has been given the name of isorubbers or cyclorubbers in the technical literature. Kirchhof has described at length these products, which can be prepared by various methods, e.g., by the action of heat, as described by Harries, who isolated a white amorphous powder, having a density of 0.992, by heating rubber for several hours in ether at 250–300°, under pressure, or by the action of chemical reagents, particularly sulfuric acid and inorganic and organic halogenated compounds, with which a range of products suitable for molding powders, paints, sheets, wire, etc., can be prepared. The present work is concerned, not with a further study of these products, but rather with an investigation of a particular one of these products, viz., that which is obtained by treating rubber with phenolsulfonic acid. The B. F. Goodrich Company, and Fisher in particular, have successfully developed the manufacture and use of this product, and have given it the generic and commercial name of Thermoprene. At the beginning, a large number of applications of Thermoprene were foreseen, but only one application has survived and undergone any extensive development, viz., the use of Thermoprene as an adhesive for bonding rubber to metal, a process known as the Vulcalock process. As a result of newly observed facts, it seemed of interest to take up this problem again in an attempt to improve the process in certain ways.

Hybrid Treatment

Abstract. Background: Endovascular treatment is an alternative first-line management for peripheral artery disease (PAD). Hybrid treatment (HT) is defined as a combined treatment for patients with PAD using endovascular and open surgery, simultaneously performed in an operating room. The results of HT are reportedly good for multilevel revascularization (MR) in patients with chronic limb ischaemia, and even in older high-risk patients. The goal of this study was to examine the clinical and haemodynamic outcomes of HT in patients who need MR. Patients and methods: Nine university hospitals in Korea participated in this multicentre study. A total of 134 patients with multilevel PAD underwent HT and MR. Patients were enrolled from July 2014 to June 2015 and were followed for 18 months. Results: The mean age of the patients was 68.8 ± 9.93 years and 88.1 % were men. Patients with Rutherford category 2 to 3 and 4 to 6 comprised 59.0 % and 42.0 % of the group, respectively. The technical success rate was 100 %. The primary patency rates at 12 and 18 months were 77.6 % and 63.9 %, respectively. The primary-assisted patency rates at 12 and 18 months were both 90.0 %. The pre-operative mean ankle brachial index (0.43 ± 0.23) increased to 0.87 ± 0.23 at six months post-operatively (t-test, p < 0.05). The amputation free survival rate was 97.1 %. Conclusions: Although outcomes of multilevel PAD are reportedly poor when endovascular treatment alone is used, we have shown that HT is a feasible alternative modality for patients with multilevel PAD, with satisfactory amputation-free survival and freedom from re-intervention rates.

This article presents a case of a 14-year-old female twin with schizophrenia who developed severe catatonia following treatment with olanzapine. Under a combined treatment with amantadine, electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), and (currently) ziprasidone alone she improved markedly. Severity and course of catatonia including treatment response were evaluated with the Bush-Francis Catatonia Rating Scale (BFCRS). This case report emphasizes the benefit of ECT in the treatment of catatonic symptoms in an adolescent patient with schizophrenic illness.
