Spontaneous spinal subarachnoid hemorrhage associated with subdural hematoma at different spinal levels

We describe the clinical features and MR-imaging findings of spontaneous spinal subarachnoid hemorrhage located in the lumbar spine associated with subdural hematoma at a higher, thoracic level in a 66-year-old man without neurological deficit. The sequential MR-imaging changes of hemorrhage at various stages in its evolution are portrayed. The possible pathogenetic mechanism for these very unusual, combined hemorrhages in both spinal compartments is discussed

Global Norms, Local Activism, and Social Movement Outcomes: Global Human Rights and Resident Koreans in Japan

The authors integrate social movement outcomes research and the world society approach to build a theoretical model to examine the impact of global and local factors on movement outcomes. Challenging the current research on policy change, which rarely examines the effects of global norms and local activism in one analysis, they argue (1) that global regimes empower and embolden local social movements and increase pressure on target governments from below, and (2) that local activists appeal to international forums with help from international activists to pressure the governments from above. When the pressures from the top and the bottom converge, social movements are more likely to succeed. Furthermore, these pressures are stronger in countries integrated into global society and on issues with strong global norms. The empirical analysis of social movements by resident Koreans in Japan advocating for four types of human rights—civil, political, social/economic, and cultural—demonstrates that the movements produced more successes as Japan\u27s involvement in the international human rights regime expanded since the late 1970s, and that activism on issues with strong global norms achieved greater successes. The analysis also shows that lack of cohesive domestic activism can undercut the chances of social movements\u27 success even with strong global norms on the issue

Back-extraction mechanism of lysozyme from reverse micelles in sodium bis 2-ethylhexyl sulfosuccinate and long chain alkyl amine mixed systems

Extraction and back-extraction of lysozyme are investigated using a mixed micellar system of sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate and long chain alkyl amines. Either di-n-octylamine or di-2-ethylhexylamine is used as the amine added. In these systems, reverse micelles is not formed at acidic pH range. Lysozyme extracted at pH which is slightly lower than the isoelectric point of lysozyme is successfully back-extracted by destruction of the micelles at acidic pH range. By increasing the amine concentration, the pH values, at which the back-extraction of lysozyme began, are raised, and the activity of the back-extracted lysozyme decreases. Linear relationship between the concentration of the amine added in the system and that of lysozyme back-extracted exists
