The growing reliance of biomedical investigations on computer software in almost all facets of their work places considerable emphasis on the need for the integrated management of the software. In order to efficiently develop, distribute, and maintain the software, tools are required which not only automate these tasks but also, wherever possible, 'semi-intelligently', alert their user to irregular situation. We describe an assortment of such tools routinely used in the management of the SAAM/CONSAM biokinetic software and illustrate their application. Furthermore, using these techniques we have presented some comparative performances of numerical integrators and of computer processors.
A 17-year-old boy and his mother represent the first reported cases of ocular (corneal) involvement of the simplex form of epidermolysis bullosa. Both had a ring-like configuration of fine bullous lesions in the midperiphery bilaterally at the level of deep corneal epithelium superficial to Bowman's membrane (basal cell layer), with the son manifesting symptoms when some of his bullae ruptured through to the corneal epithelial surface. Nonscarring blistering was present in three generations of this family, suggestive of dominantly inherited epidermolysis bullosa simplex, and was confirmed by electron microscopy of a skin specimen from the son. Thus, ocular involvement has now been observed in all of the major types of epidermolysis bullosa.
