    Notes:
    Losses in grain yield prevented by controlling weeds were measured in 59 fields of (southern hemisphere) spring-sown wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) (cv, Otane) and 45 fields of spring-sown barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) (cv. Corniche) in five consecutive growing seasons from 1988/89 until 1992/93 in the Canterbury region of New Zealand. The losses were measured as the differences in yield between weeded and non-weeded plots located in randomly positioned pairs in the fields. In the first 2 years, the weeding was by push hoe in‘organically grown crops. For the last 3 years, the fields were under prophylactic herbicide regimens with nonweeded plots created by excluding commercial herbicide applications (made mostly in October for wheat and November for barley) with polyethylene sheets placed temporarily over the plots. For each season the distributions of yield losses were modelled using the normal distribution and probabilities of ‘breaking even’ on herbicide use derived by substituting cumulative probability density functions into a simple break-even model for herbicide use. The model assumed that herbicide application in the current crop has no flow-on economic effect for succeeding crops. The mean annual yield losses prevented by herbicide application were positively correlated with September and October rainfall for wheat and bailey respectively. As a consequence, the probabilities of breaking even on herbicide use increased with increasing spring rainfall. Using historical rainfall records, probabilities of breaking even were estimated for each of the 48 years from 1947 to 1994. Averaging over these years, the analysis revealed that at current grain prices prophylactic use of the commonly applied herbicides is likely to be uneconomic in 24% (95% confidence limits 6% and 50%) of fields of average-yielding Otane wheat and in 26% (95% confidence limits 1% and 91 %) of fields of average-yielding Corniche barley in Canterbury. It was concluded that there is potential for withholding herbicide treatments without jeopardizing profitability in these crops, particularly in seasons with low spring rainfall.

    Notes:
    In the prevailing climate of cost containment, doctors are increasingly expected to consider the economic consequences of treatment choices. Clinical (or medical) economics attempts to apply economic principles to the description and analysis of the costs of medical interventions, so as to identify how best to spend scarce health care resources. Such economic evaluations may assess the overall financial burden of a disease to society as a whole (macro-economics), or attempt to compare alternative treatment strategies for a specific clinical situation (micro-economics). In addition to expenditure on drugs and investigations (direct medical costs), economic studies may consider a variety of other costs. These include direct costs borne by patients (e.g. prescription charges, travel, food), indirect costs to society owing to lost productivity (resulting from morbidity or premature mortality) and even intangible costs which assign a monetary value to outcomes of disease such as pain, distress and anxiety.Four main types of economic analysis are in current use. Cost minimization analysis attempts to identify the least expensive option in situations where there are a range of equally effective treatments for a given clinical condition, whereas cost-effectiveness analysis allows management strategies differing both in cost and efficacy to be compared. The cost-effectiveness of health care programmes targeting different disease states may also be compared using cost-utility analysis, in which health benefits are translated into a common utility-based unit of outcome, such as the Quality Adjusted Life Year (QALY). Cost-benefit analysis attempts to quantify health outcomes in monetary terms, so that the net result provides an assessment of value-for-money of health interventions.Gastrointestinal disorders are amongst the commonest of complaints, and considerable health care resources are consumed in treatment. Issues of cost-effectiveness are likely to assume increasing importance in gastroenterology because of the ever expanding range of drug choice, the increasing number of high cost treatments and the development of new therapeutic interventions.

    Notes:
    The high prevalence and chronic nature of peptic ulcer disease have traditionally resulted in a major economic burden on health care systems. In 1991, for example, peptic ulcer disease was estimated to account for over one-third of all National Health Service expenditure on gastrointestinal diseases. It is now well established that elimination of Helicobacter pylori can lead to a dramatic reduction in gastroduodenal ulcer relapse, with obvious clinical benefits. This review considers the economic implications of the use of H. pylori eradication therapy in peptic ulcer disease.

    Notes:
    Aim: To define prescribing patterns for symptomatic dyspeptic patients in a cross-section of general practitioners in Leeds, United Kingdom. Methods: Nine general practitioners from a range of practices took part in a prospective observational study of prescribing patterns for dyspepsia. All consultations with symptomatic dyspeptic patients were recorded over a 4-month period. Symptoms were recorded as ulcer-like, reflux-like, or nonspecific, and details of recent therapy, previous investigations and any prescription issued were noted. Results: 257 consecutive consultations were recorded (new patients 23%, consulted before but not investigated 33%, previously investigated 44%). 93% of consultations resulted in a prescription (antacids 24%, prokinetic/motility agent 8%, H2-receptor antagonist 36%, proton pump inhibitor 24%, Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy 8%). 42.5% of new patients received an acid-suppressing drug as first-line therapy, of which only 32% had tried over-the-counter remedies. Symptom-type (ulcer-like, reflux-like or nonspecific) significantly influenced choice of empiric therapy (P〈0.001), though prescribing was still variable. Although around 60% of patients with previously negative investigations or only minor disease received acid-suppressing drugs, such patients were six times more likely to receive ‘less potent’ treatments (no prescription, antacid or motility agent) than those with known acid-peptic disease (odds ratio 6.23, P〈0.01). Only 30% of patients with previously documented peptic ulcer received H. pylori eradication therapy, yet patients with a wide range of other diagnoses received this form of treatment. Conclusions: Management guidelines may help to promote a more consistent and selective use of newer treatments, and promote more cost-effective patient care.

    Notes:
    Abstract The H2-receptor antagonists ranitidine and cimetidine were tested against gastric secretory dose-response curves to histamine, pentagastrin and bethanechol in the Heidenhainpouch dog. Histamine-induced gastric secretion was antagonized in a competitive manner by both ranitidine and cimetidine, but ranitidine was approximately 8 times more potent than cimetidine. Pentagastrin-induced secretion was markedly reduced by ranitidine and cimetidine but this antagonism was not competitive in nature. Bethanechol-induced gastric secretion was slightly reduced by both drugs. These findings are discussed in relation to he physiological control of gastric secretion.

    Abstract Cumulative concentration-response curves to histamine or dimaprit were constructed on guinea-pig isolated right atria and agonist dose-ratios were determined following addition of ranitidine, cimetidine, metiamide or tiotidine alone or a combination of any two of these H2-receptor blocking drugs. The observed histamine or dimaprit dose-ratios for combinations of any two of the H2-antagonists tested were consistent with results predicted from the equation, DR1+2=DR1+DR2−1, for two antagonists competing for the same receptor sites. Therefore we conclude that all four H2-antagonists compete for the same histamine H2-receptor.

    Abstract Theories of firm growth are reviewed and various models examined. The firm growth and job generation process in the UK over the period 1985–87, is examined empirically, by using the very large data files of the Dun and Bradstreet credit rating organisation. In the analysis, four computer processes were carried out; the sorting and matching of files, the cleaning of the data, the validation of the cleaned data, and the scaling up the results. The final adjusted data were grossed-up to provide an overview of the growth and job generation potential of UK firms. This is compared with past results for the periods 1971–81, and 1982–84. Small firms performed well, providing 48% of all new jobs, although consisting of only 21% of all employment in 1985. The 1000+ employee range provided only 13% of all new jobs over the period, although consisting of 37% of all employment in 1985. An overall trend of positive performance in smaller firms, and negative in larger firms was apparent. The 20–49 employee cohort performed unusually poorly in firm and job creation, against the expected pattern. The effect of takeovers, mergers and rationalisations on employment was examined. As expected, there was negligible restructuring of small firms, but over 5% of employees in the largest 1000+ cohort were involved in some form of reorganisation. In this and the two previous studies for 1971–81 and 1982–84, we found a consistent pattern of small firms as net generators of jobs, and large firms as net losers. This overall net behaviour is essential for the overall stability of the population, and can not be seen in ‘good’ or ‘bad’ terms. Bolton in 1971 found that the UK had an unduly small and weak small-firm sector. That trend to concentration is being reversed.

    Abstract The effect of experimental design on the ability of metiamide to inhibit gastric secretion induced by histamine, bethanechol and carbachol has been investigated in the Heidenhain pouch dog. All three secretagogues can be inhibited by metiamide to an extent depending on the experimental design.

    Abstract The antisecretory potency and duration of action of the new histamine H2-receptor antagonist AH 22216 have been compared with those of cimetidine, ranitidine and SK & F 93479 against histamine-induced gastric acid secretion in the conscious Heidenhain pouch dog. Ranitidine was 4–6 times more potent than cimetidine, with a similar duration of action. SK & F 93479 was approximately twice as potent as ranitidine and had a slightly longer duration of action. AH 22216 was most potent of the four H2-antagonists, some 20–30 times more active than cimetidine, and had an extremely prolonged duration of action.
