Noncommutative jordan algebras with commutators satisfying an alternativity condition.

The theorems of this paper show that the main results in the structure and representation theory of Jordan algebras and of alternative algebras are valid for a larger class of algebras defined by simple identities which obviously hold in the Jordan and alternative cass. A new unification of the Jordan and associative theories is also achieved.

The glutamine commute: take the N line and transfer to the A.

The transfer of glutamine between cells contributes to signaling as well as to metabolism. The recent identification and characterization of the system N and A family of transporters has begun to suggest mechanisms for the directional transfer of glutamine, and should provide ways to test its physiological significance in diverse processes from nitrogen to neurotransmitter release.

Chilean miners commuting from sea level to 4500 m: a prospective study.

The development of mining activities in North Chile involves a great number of workers intermittently exposed to high altitude for a long period of time (chronic intermittent hypoxia, CIH). A 2(1/2)-year prospective study aimed to characterize this model of exposure to CIH and to know whether this condition may progressively lead to a chronic pattern. Twenty-nine miners, aged 25 +/- 5 yr, working 7 days at HA (3800 to 4600 m) and resting 7 days at sea level (SL) were studied. Subjects underwent a physical examination, EKG, hematological status, maximal exercise test, ventilatory and cardiac response to hypoxia (F(iO2) = 0.114) at rest and exercise, pulmonary vascular response to hypoxia by echocardiography, and 24-h monitoring of EKG and arterial pressure. Basal evaluations were performed at SL before the first exposure to hypoxia. HA measurements were daily AMS score, sleep status, and 24-h monitoring of EKG and arterial pressure. All these measurements were repeated after a mean period of 12, 19, and 31 months. Hematocrit increased but reached values lower than those observed in chronic permanent exposure. Systemic and pulmonary arterial pressures measured at SL did not change, but were higher in hypoxia. Right ventricle showed a slight dilatation. Exercise performance at SL declined with exposure to CIH to reach a 12.3% decrease after 31 months of CIH, associated with a 6.8% decrease in maximal heart rate. Signs of ventilatory acclimatization were observed after 12 months. Symptoms of AMS and sleep disturbances were still seen on the first 2 days at HA, whatever the time of exposure to CIH. In conclusion, CIH induced a clear acclimatization process. Subjects did not reach a health status comparable to that seen in permanent residents at HA and remained at risk of acute altitude-induced illnesses.
