    Notes: Summary The effect of chronic furosemide treatment on the circadian cycle of lithium clearance (CLLi) and electrolyte excretion has been examined in 8 young, male volunteers, by performing two 24 h clearance experiments, before and after one week of treatment with furosemide 80 mg once daily. After 8 days on furosemide there was a significant decrease in creatinine clearance (−21%), plasma Na (−8.4 mM) and plasma K (−0.58 mM). At that time, however, there were no changes in 24 h-values of CLLi or Na excretion, although the magnitude of the circadian variation in CLLi and other renal parameters was increased. Both CLLi and CLNa were increased in the first 3 h following furosemide administration and thereafter they fell below the control level in the remaining hours of the experiment. From the absolute and fractional changes in CLLi it is suggested that compensatory Na conservation in response to chronic furosemide treatment occurs between doses, and that it involves decreased output from the proximal tubules combined with increased fractional Na reabsorption in the distal nephron.

    Notes: Abstract Landscape ecology deals with the patterning of ecosystems in space. Methods are needed to quantify aspects of spatial pattern that can be correlated with ecological processes. The present paper develops three indices of pattern derived from information theory and fractal geometry. Using digitized maps, the indices are calculated for 94 quadrangles covering most of the eastern United States. The indices are shown to be reasonably independent of each other and to capture major features of landscape pattern. One of the indices, the fractal dimension, is shown to be correlated with the degree of human manipulation of the landscape.

    Notes: Summary The ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila was grown in a synthetic nutrient medium at various amino acid concentrations. Before the beginning of the experiments the cells were starved for 4 h in a pH buffer. They were inoculated at an initial density of only 250 cells per ml. Under these conditions the cells grew and multiplied at only the two highest amino acid concentrations used. Hemin or phospholipids were found to stimulate cell growth at the lower amino acid concentrations. The mechanism behind this stimulatory effect is unknown, but may be connected with the maintenance of an adequate energy flow under adverse conditions. These additions represent an improvement of the synthetic medium for Tetrahymena.
