The anorectic drug teronak (made by "Sandoz") was used in the treatment of 73 obese patients, 34 of whom suffered from diabetes mellitus. The drug is well tolerated and had no side effects. Its positive action on the carbohydrate and lipid metabolism was noted during the treatment. The mean loss of weight after a 12-week treatment constituted 10.1 +/- 0.6 kg. 相似文献

Old-age survival has increased substantially since 1950. Death rates decelerate with age for insects, worms, and yeast, as well as humans. This evidence of extended postreproductive survival is puzzling. Three biodemographic insights--concerning the correlation of death rates across age, individual differences in survival chances, and induced alterations in age patterns of fertility and mortality--offer clues and suggest research on the failure of complicated systems, on new demographic equations for evolutionary theory, and on fertility-longevity interactions. Nongenetic changes account for increases in human life-spans to date. Explication of these causes and the genetic license for extended survival, as well as discovery of genes and other survival attributes affecting longevity, will lead to even longer lives. 相似文献

Spatial memory tasks, performance of which is known to be sensitive to hippocampal lesions in the rat, or to medial temporal lesions in the human, were administered in order to investigate the effects of selective damage to medial temporal lobe structures of the human brain. The patients had undergone thermo-coagulation with a single electrode along the amygdalo-hippocampal axis in an attempt to alleviate their epilepsy. With this surgical technique, lesions to single medial temporal lobe structures can be carried out. The locations of the lesions were assessed by means of digital high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging and software allowing a 3-D reconstruction of the brain. A break in the collateral sulcus, dividing it into the anterior collateral sulcus and the posterior collateral sulcus is reported. This division may correspond to the end of the entorhinal/perirhinal cortex and the start of the parahippocampal cortex. The results confirmed the role of the right hippocampus in visuo-spatial memory tasks (object location, Rey-Osterrieth Figure with and without delay) and the left for verbal memory tasks (Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Task with delay). However, patients with lesions either to the right or to the left hippocampus were unimpaired on several memory tasks, including a spatial one, with a 30 min delay, designed to be analogous to the Morris water maze. Patients with lesions to the right parahippocampal cortex were impaired on this task with a 30 min delay, suggesting that the parahippocampal cortex itself may play an important role in spatial memory. 相似文献

To investigate potential membrane-mediated responses to estrogen, a membrane-impermeant, radioiodinated, steroid-BSA conjugate--estradiol-17beta-6-(O-carboxymethyl)oxime:125I-labeled BSA (17beta-E-6-125I-BSA)--or related steroid conjugates, or 125I-BSA was injected into female Sprague-Dawley rats, and tissues were collected at varying times postinjection. The liver, adrenal, and spleen displayed the most prominent uptake of 17beta-E-6-125I-BSA, reaching a maximum of 43 times blood levels in sonicated liver samples at 5 min postinjection, but no uptake of 125I-BSA. Isolation of liver membranes by differential centrifugation showed that over 50% of recovered radioactivity was in association with microsomes and plasmalemma (P3 fraction) at 30 sec postinjection. By 60 min postinjection, over 75% of recovered radioactivity was in association with mitochondrial and lysosomal membranes (P2 fraction), and less than 10% remained in the P3 fraction. In vitro competition assays demonstrated two binding sites in liver P3 fractions. The spleen and liver also showed saturable binding in vivo. These data suggest the presence of at least one membrane-binding protein for estrogen in liver, adrenal, and spleen. Initial studies of affinity-purified liver P3 fractions using ligand blots indicated the presence of two binding proteins. These potential membrane estrogen-binding proteins may be involved in a very rapid shuttling of estrogen from the plasmalemma to mitochondria and lysosomes. 相似文献

A dipstick enzyme immunoassay (ELISA) has been standardized for the detection of rinderpest antibodies. One hundred and thirty bovine serum samples were analysed by the dipstick ELISA method and the results compared with the conventional plate ELISA method. The sensitivity was found to be similar in both methods. The dipstick ELISA does not require expensive micro-plates and an ELISA reader, and is recommended for use in field laboratories where the qualitative detection of rinderpest antibodies is required. 相似文献

Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection in neonates and young infants: repair in the current era
Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection has been one of the more challenging congenital heart defects in newborns and young infants despite improvements in surgical technique, cardiac anesthesia, neonatal myocardial preservation, and postoperative care. Since 1981, 30 patients with total anomalous pulmonary venous connection have undergone primary total correction. Mean age at operation was 28 +/- 6 days and mean weight, 3.3 +/- 0.7 kg. Essential features of the surgical approach in these small patients included early surgical intervention, profound hypothermia with total circulatory arrest, cardioplegic myocardial preservation, and a wide posterior anastomosis. Operative mortality was 13% +/- 6%. All four deaths were in patients having emergency operation within 24 hours of the surgical consult and requiring ventilator support preoperatively. The mean follow-up is 47 +/- 7 months. There have been two late deaths, and the 7-year survival rate is 79% +/- 8%. There have been two reoperations, and 91% +/- 6% of the patients are reoperation free at 7 years. Only 1 of the 24 surviving patients is symptomatic. Growth in survivors is closely monitored. The height growth percentile is less than 5% in 15% +/- 8% of survivors and the weight growth percentile, less than 5% in 17 +/- 8%. During the past decade, with a consistent surgical approach to neonates and infants with total anomalous pulmonary venous connection, it has been possible to achieve low early mortality, low attrition, and excellent late results. 相似文献

A rapid and sensitive high-performance thin-layer chromatographic (HPTLC) method has been developed for the measurement of sparfloxacin in human plasma and its use for pharmacokinetic study has been evaluated. Detection and quantitation were performed without using an internal standard. A single stage extraction procedure was followed for extracting sparfloxacin from plasma and a known amount of the extract was spotted on precoated silica gel 60 F254 plates using a Camag Linomat IV autosampler. Sparfloxacin was quantified using a Camag TLC Scanner 3. The recovery study of authentic analytes added to plasma at 0.1 to 0.8 microgram ml-1 was 94.9 +/- 0.98% and the lowest amount of sparfloxacin that could be detected was 50 ng ml-1 plasma. The method provides a direct estimate of the amount of sparfloxacin present in plasma. The method was used for the determination of plasma levels as well as pharmacokinetic parameters of sparfloxacin after oral administration of two marketed preparations to healthy volunteers. 相似文献
