Consciousness Disturbance

In anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis, progressive cerebellar atrophy potentially leads to severe sequelae. We encountered a patient with anti-NMDAR antibody encephalitis who showed a decrease of blood flow in the cerebellum. A 15-year-old girl presented with consciousness disturbance. Influenza encephalopathy was suspected, and she was treated with glucocorticoid pulse therapy, high-dose intravenous immunoglobulins, and plasma exchange sequentially. She subsequently underwent left oophorectomy due to the presence of anti-NMDAR antibodies and a left ovarian teratoma. In spite of the surgery, her neuropsychiatric symptoms persisted, and she recovered slowly after the introduction of oral methotrexate (MTX). Sequential cerebral blood flow monitoring with single-photon emission computed tomography showed marked cerebellar hypoperfusion. Although mild impairments including working memory and verbal fluency persisted, she eventually returned to high school 3 years after onset. Profound cerebellar hypoperfusion including lobules VI and VII may be the reason for her working memory impairment and speaking problems. Oral MTX may be a promising alternative treatment for some refractory cases of anti-NMDAR encephalitis.

Flow Monitoring

Soil erosion, in the form of transported suspended sediment in overland flow, is often associated with high rates of particulate phosphorus (PP) (total P>0.45 μm) transfer from land to watercourses. Particulate P may provide a long-term source of P for aquatic biota. Twenty-two sites for winter overland flow monitoring were selected in south-west England within fields ranging from 0.2–3.8 ha on conventionally-managed arable land. Fields were situated on highly porous, light textured soils, lacking impermeable horizons and often overlying major aquifers. Long arable use and modern cultivation methods result in these soils capping under rain impact. Overland flow was observed when rainfall intensity approached the modest rate of 0.8 mm hr−1 on land at or near to field capacity. Low intensity rainfall (<2 mm hr−1) produced mean suspended sediment losses of 14 kg ha−1 hr−1, with associated PP transfer rates of 16 g ha−1 hr−1. In high intensity rainfall (>9 mm hr−1) mean PP losses of 319 g ha−1 hr−1 leaving the field were observed. As might be expected, there was a good relationship between PP and suspended sediment transfer in overland flow leaving the sites. The capacity of light soils to cap when in arable use, combined with heavy or prolonged rainfall, resulted in substantial discharges, soil erosion and associated PP transfer. Storms with heavy rain, typically of only a few hours duration, were characterised by considerable losses of PP. Such events, with return periods of once or twice a winter, may account for a significant proportion of total annual P transfer from agricultural soils under arable crops. However, contributions from less intense rain with much longer duration (around 100 hours per winter in many arable districts of the UK) are also demonstrated here.

Abstract. Continuous monitoring of earth flow displacement is essential for the understanding of the dynamic of the process, its ongoing evolution and designing mitigation measures. Despite its importance, it is not always applied due to its expense and the need for integration with additional sensors to monitor factors controlling movement. To overcome these problems, we developed and tested a low-cost Arduino-based wire-rail extensometer integrating a data logger, a power system and multiple digital and analog inputs. The system is equipped with a high-precision position transducer that in the test configuration offers a measuring range of 1023 mm and an associated accuracy of ±1 mm, and integrates an operating temperature sensor that should allow potential thermal drift that typically affects this kind of systems to be identified and corrected. A field test, conducted at the Pietrafitta earth flow where additional monitoring systems had been installed, indicates a high reliability of the measurement and a high monitoring stability without visible thermal drift.
