From the Creaux's Nest

I’m sure you recall that I told you as soon as a few rain showers started the mosquitoes would come in clouds and boy have they. Eggs can lay dormant for years but once the rains come, in four to five days, the “Skeeters” will develop into adults. The majority of the pest will be near salt marsh areas, their breeding grounds, but they are not confined only to those areas. Right now almost anywhere you go in the county you will find them. It’s hard to stay ahead of the game with spraying. If a batch is killed off and another shower comes, more will hatch. The county plane has been spraying. I’m not sure what results we’re getting from the plane spraying. There are some marsh areas and places along Cow Bayou that can be reached by plane only. I haven’t noticed that trucks are spraying. Maybe they are and I’ve just missed them. Mosquitoes will travel 80 to 100 miles. This salt marsh mosquito is aggressive, with a bad sting. I’m told only the female bites. I’ve never checked their sex but like a snake, I kill them all. To enjoy the outdoors at your place the best option I know of is Pestco’s herb formula. They spray with ginger, rosemary, lemon oil etc and guarantee you will not have mosquitoes for six weeks. My experience is that it will last eight to ten weeks. Call Marty or Donna at 886-4248 and let them give you a price. I’m afraid that the bugs will be around for a couple of months. Buy a lot of Off and call the mosquito control if you feel you are being neglected. I have found the county is diligent in fighting the “Skeeters,” they’re just a real bad problem right now. *****Well, at least we will get to watch some football now that the NFL and players have settled their differences. One of our Orange County boys in the NFL, Earl Thomas, has signed a contract with the Seahawks. However, as of Tuesday morning, Atlanta hasn’t resigned Orange County’s Matt Bryant.

Background— Electrical storm (ES), characterized by recurrent ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation, typically occurs in implantable cardioverter-defibrillator patients and adversely affects prognosis. However, the underlying molecular basis is poorly understood. In the present study, we report a new experimental model featuring repetitive episodes of implantable cardioverter-defibrillator firing for recurrent ventricular fibrillation (VF), in which we assessed involvement of Ca

Methods and Results— We studied 37 rabbits with complete atrioventricular block for ≈80 days, all with implantable cardioverter-defibrillator implantation. All rabbits showed long-QT and VF episodes. Fifty-three percent of rabbits developed ES (≥3 VF episodes per 24-hour period; 103±23 VF episodes per rabbit). Expression/phosphorylation of Ca -handling proteins was assessed in left ventricular tissues from rabbits with the following: ES; VF episodes but not ES (non-ES); and controls. Left ventricular end-diastolic diameter increased comparably in ES and non-ES rabbits, but contractile dysfunction was significantly greater in ES than in non-ES rabbits. ES rabbits showed striking hyperphosphorylation of Ca /calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II, prominent phospholamban dephosphorylation, and increased protein phosphatase 1 and 2A expression versus control and non-ES rabbits.
