Absolute Frequency Atlas from 915 nm to 985 nm based on Laser Absorption Spectroscopy of Iodine
This article reports on laser absorption spectroscopy of iodine gas between
915 nm and 985 nm. This wavelength range is scanned utilizing a narrow
linewidth and mode-hop-free tunable diode-laser whose frequency is actively
controlled using a calibrated wavelength meter. This allows us to provide an
iodine atlas that contains almost 10,000 experimentally observed reference
lines with an uncertainty of 50 MHz. For common lines, good agreement is found
with a publication by Gerstenkorn et al. [S. Gerstenkorn, P. Luc, Atlas du
spectre d'absorption de la molecule d'iode 14800-20000 cm, Paris:
Editions du Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), 1978]. The new
rich dataset allows existing models of the iodine molecule to be refined and
can serve as a reference for laser frequency calibration and stabilization.Comment: 7 pages, 4 figures, link to online data depositor
Osteonecrosis of the Jaw After Bisphosphonates Treatment in Patients with Multiple Myeloma
Bone lytic lesion in Multiple myeloma are the most commonly presented symptoms which require treatment with bisphosphonates (BPs). BPs are providing supportive
care, reducing the rate of skeletal morbidity but evidently not abolishing it, the criteria for stopping their administration have to be different from those used for classic antineoplastic drugs, and they should not be stopped when metastatic bone disease is progressing. Osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) has been associated recently with the use of BPs. The aim of these study is to evaluate the incidence of ONJ in patients with MM treated with mixed biphosphonates. We analyzed total 296 myeloma patients
(150 male and 146 female). Mostly effected age group with 58,1% is age more than 60 years up to 88 years, diagnosed in our institution in the period 2005-2015. We used intravenous
or oral forms of biphosphonates such as pamidronate, ibandronate, clodronate and zolendronic acid. The patients were evaluated for ONJ. The incidence of ONJ in our group of patients treated with Bps was 4,6% from our group of 260 patients 87,8% received BPs therapy and patients which haven’t received BPs 12,2%. From this group, 95,4% (248)
didn’t show ONJ, and 4,6% (12) showed ONJ. The period of this treatment with BPs is an important risk factor for development of ONJ, average duration of BPs therapy in patients which show adverse effects is 26.8±13.7 months, from the total number of 12 patients that developed ONJ adverse effects, we have 8 patients which received treatment with Zolendronic acid and the remaining 4 patients which were treated with other BPs combinations without Zolendronic acid. All patients treated for MM must continue with the
therapy with Zolendronic acid and Pamidronate, each patient must be individually treated according to his response of the treatment (dose, frequency and duration of therapy)
