We assessed the long-term outcome ofopen debridement for the treatment of anterior impingement of the ankle in 27 patients. By using preoperative radiographs to group patients according to both the McDermott and the van Dijk scoring system, we assessed the accuracy of these classifications in predicting outcome. The Ogilvie-Harris scoring system, a visual analogue scale of patient satisfaction,...

Ogilvie syndrome, or acute colonic pseudo-obstruction, is a severe distension of the colon caused by decreased large bowel motility in the absence of a mechanical obstruction. It can be a consequence of medical treatment such as with clozapine. An 82-year-old male with Alzheimer disease under treatment with antipsychotics (clozapine) was admitted with abdominal distension and constipation. On e...

The communication presents a numerical test of the three most popular methods used for direct inversion of the highly resolved IR and MW spectra of diatomic systems: (A) the numerical techniques such as those described by Coxon (J. A. Coxon and P. G. Hajigeorgiou, J. Mol. Spectrosc., 1991, 150, 1, ref. 1; J. A. Coxon, J. Mol. Spectrosc., 1992, 150, 274, ref. 2), Bernath (J. M. Campbell, M. Duli...
