Notes: Abstract Evaluation of the efficacy and adequacy for double-contrast barium enema (DCBE) of a recently described oral lavage solution incorporating anonabsorbable solute (Golytely®) and its comparison with a traditional method of colon cleansing, is reported. Preparation with Golytely® achieved results equal to those of the traditional, more rigorous method with a saving of time and reduction in patient annoyance and without significant alterations in patients' weights and body fluid status.

Notes: Abstract. Longitudinal assessment of risk factors for periodontal disease is necessary to provide evidence that a putative risk factor or risk indicator is a true risk factor. The purpose of the present study was to explore longitudinally a variety of markers as possible periodontal risk factors in subjects with little or no periodontal disease at baseline. 415 subjects with mild or little periodontal disease were examined: medical and dental history; socioeconomic profile, clinical measurements, microbial samples and radiographic assessment of bone height were performed at baseline, and at a follow-up examination 2 to 5 years later. Mean probing pocket depth (PPD) at baseline was 1.99±0.37 mm while mean overall change was 0.1 mm which amounts to an annual rate of 0.04 mm. Overall mean clinical attachment level (1.75±0.6 mm) at baseline resulted in mean attachment change of 0.28 mm (0.12 mm. annually). Alveolar crestal height (ACH) at baseline (mean 2.05±0.85 mm) resulting in a mean net loss of 0.1 mm. Approximately 10% of all sites presented for the second visit with attachment loss exceeding the threshold (4.4% annually), while only 2.2% of all sites exhibited attachment gain (0.88% annually). Older individuals exhibited greater mean bone loss but the least amount of attachment loss. Current smokers exhibited greater disease progression compared to non-smokers. Tooth morbidity (0.17 teeth/patient/year) was associated with greater baseline CAL and ACH loss, and an assortment of systemic conditions. Subjects who harbored Bacteroides forsythus (Bf) at baseline had greater loss in ACH; likewise, these subjects experienced greater proportions of losing sites and twice as much tooth mortality compared to Bf-negative patients. Baseline clinical parameters correlated strongly with the outcome, i.e., subjects with deeper mean pocket depth at baseline exhibited greater increase in pocket depth overtime; while subjects with greater attachment loss at baseline exhibited greater attachment loss between the 1st and 2nd visits.

Notes: Abstract We have recently provided evidence to suggest that the polyamine pathway plays an essential role in the expression of the growth-promoting effect of estradiol (E2) regulated growth factors in the N-nitrosomethylurea (NMU) induced rat mammary tumor culturedin vitro in the soft agar clonogenic assay. To further explore the interaction between the polyamine pathway and autocrine control of tumor growth by E2, we tested whether, in our system, polyamines play a role in the synthesis of E2-regulated growth factors. Conditioned medium (CM) obtained from tumors treated with E2 and the polyamine biosynthesis inhibitor α-difluoromethyl-ornithine (DFMO) (1 mM) no longer exhibited the colony-stimulating effect which was consistently observed with E2-CM. Such growth promoting activity was restored in a dose-dependent fashion with CM obtained from tumors treated with E2, DFMO, and increasing concentrations of spermidine (from 1 to 100µM). Conditioned medium obtained from tumors treated with DFMO with and without spermidine in the absence of E2 had no discernible effects on colony formation. The colony stimulating effect of the CM employed could not be accounted for by the contaminating presence in the media of E2, DFMO, or polyamines. These results indicate that, in our system, the polyamine pathway plays an important role in the synthesis of E2-regulated growth factors.

Notes: We examined prospectively the risk for major depression (MDD) and panic disorder in persons with prior history of migraine. A random sample of 995 young adults was interviewed in 1989 and reinterviewed in 1990. A history of migraine at baseline increased fourfold the risk for MDD during the follow-up interval. A history of any anxiety disorder exacerbated the risk for MDD in persons with migraine. Persons with a history of migraine were twelve times more likely to become cases of panic disorder than those with no history of migraine. The risk for MDD andor panic disorder was unrelated to whether or not migraine was active during the year preceding the baseline interview or in remission for more than one year. The findings suggest that migraine, major depression and anxiety disorders might share common predispositions.

Notes: Abstract 8 mg of naloxone were administered IV to 14 normal volunteers in a placebo-controlled, double-blind experiment. Plasma levels of β-endorphin, cortisol, prolactin, growth hormone, HVA and MHPG were determined before and 45 min after administration. Naloxone elicited significant increases in cortisol and MHPG but did not change plasma levels of the other compounds. In an additional experiment on two subjects, 20 mg of naloxone caused elevations of β-endorphin as well as of cortisol. This parallel increase indicates that the linkage between the secretion of β-endorphin and ACTH/cortisol may be dose-dependent. The increase in MHPG is in agreement with the hypothesized association of noradrenergic hyperactivity and opiate withdrawal.

Notes: Abstract The purpose of this paper is to report five patients with chronic secretory diarrhea (maximum stool volume greater than 1 liter per day, duration 6 weeks to 8 years) in whom we could find no evidence of an endocrine tumor or of surreptitious laxative ingestion. All except one had severe hypokalemia. There was apparent improvement after treatment with prednisone in two patients and loperamide in one. The diarrhea resolved spontaneously in three patients and has undergone several temporary remissions in one patient. The last patient died after a severe unremitting illness. Extensive investigations failed to establish the etiology, but intestinal perfusion (carried out in four of the five patients) revealed secretion or abnormally low absorption of water and electrolytes in the jejunum and abnormally low absorption in the colon. The management of patients with chronic watery diarrhea is discussed.
