Published 1992Staff ViewISSN: 1530-0358Keywords: Colorectal surgery complications ; Preoperative risk assessmentSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: MedicineNotes: Abstract Our aim was to analyze the predictive value of a variety of preoperative risk factors on operative outcomes. We reviewed all colorectal resections performed in a single hospital between January 1985 and May 1990. Nine hundred seventy-two resections were performed on 825 patients. We studied 17 preoperative risk factors generated from various medical risk categories. Using the multivariate discriminant function analysis, we calculated that 11 of the 17 risks were of significance in predicting outcomes (all with P ≤0.031). These factors included emergent operation, age ≥75 years, congestive heart failure (CHF), prior abdominal or pelvic radiation therapy, corticosteroid use, albumin 〈2.7 g/dl, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), previous myocardial infarction (MI), diabetes, cirrhosis, and renal insufficiency. The classification function generated by the discriminant analysis was used to categorize patients into one of four risk groups depending on their “risk score.” The index used to develop each patient's “risk score” ranged from six points for an emergency operation to one point for diabetes. The mortality rates for the various risk groups were as follows: Group 1, zero to four points, 1 percent; Group 2, five to eight points, 10 percent; Group 3, 9 to 13 points, 19 percent; Group 4, 〉13 points, 33 percent. In contrast to previous reports, we showed that age ≥75 years alone is not a major preoperative risk factor but, rather, acts as a modifier for the other predictors of postoperative complications. We then assessed clinical questions concerning specific preoperative risks, such as steroid use, obesity, inflammatory bowel disease, COPD, and prior laparotomy, and their associated specific postoperative complications and have developed prevention strategies based on these findings. Through the use of the risk index, we also were able to assess an individual patient's operative risk more accurately.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1432-0827Keywords: Osteoclasts ; Sedimentation ; Isolation ; Cells ; BoneSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: BiologyMedicinePhysicsNotes: Abstract A method is presented for separating osteoclasts from the heterogeneous population of bone and marrow cells. Cell suspensions were prepared from femora of young rabbits by mechanical dispersion. The starting cell suspension typically contained only 1.0%±0.5 osteoclasts. Following an initial 45 min of unit gravity sedimentation in a lucite chamber osteoclasts were primarily distributed in fractions 2–5. A second 45-min sedimentation of these pooled fractions yielded cell suspensions containing greater than 30% osteoclasts (as much as a 50-fold increase over starting percentages). Linear scan analysis, however, revealed that osteoclasts accounted for 73.14%±0.58 of the cell colume. Subsequent in vitro experiments demonstrated linear incorporation of3H-leucine into TCA precipitable protein for cells comprising the osteoclast fraction. Concomitant radiautographs revealed radioactive label in isolated osteoclasts.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1432-0843Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: MedicineNotes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of vindesine were investigated in five patients with advanced cancer who were receiving the drug. Following a rapid IV bolus dose, vindesine kinetics were described by a triphasic serum decay curve compatible with a three-compartment open mammillary model. Serum half-lives were 2 min, 50 min, and 24 h for the fast, middle, and slow phases, respectively. The volume of the central compartment approximated the plasma volume in all patients studied. Distribution occurred quickly into a superficial tissue compartment in fairly rapid equilibrium with the plasma compartment, and also into a deep tissue compartment with slower redistribution to the central compartment. The large apparent volume of distribution and long elimination half-live suggest extensive tissue sequestration or delayed excretion of the drug in man. The slightly increased serum half-life of vindesine compared with published results for vinblastine may account for the greater degree and longer duration of marrow suppression seen clinically with vindesine.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Published 1986Staff ViewISSN: 1573-2568Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: MedicineNotes: Abstract To determine whether the autonomic nervous system has a direct effect on GIP secretion, six normal subjects received a 4-hr intraduodenal perfusion of glucose (225 mg/min) and polyethylene glycol on four successive days. During the latter 2 hr, either normal saline, propranolol, phentolamine, or atropine were infused intravenously. Glucose absorption was calculated by measuring glucose and polyethylene glycol following luminal aspiration distal to the perfusion site. Basal and peak or nadir values in the saline study of plasma glucose, insulin, glucagon, and GIP were similar to the other three studies prior to autonomic blockade. During the latter 2 hr of the glucose perfusion, the plasma glucose and glucagon responses to saline did not differ from responses to the three blocking agents. Phentolamine but not atropine or propranolol resulted in a greater insulin response compared to saline (3247±762 vs 1348±388 μU/ml/120 min,P〈0.01). GIP was not significantly affected by phentolamine (18,146±4574), propranolol (7585±5854), or atropine (15,797±6297) compared to saline (11,717±5204 pg/ml/120 min). Glucose absorption was unaffected by infusions of saline, phentolamine, and propranolol, but was increased following atropine infusion (5841±1120 vs 1044±808 mg/120 min,P〈0.02). There appears to be no direct effect of the autonomic nervous system on glucose-induced secretion of GIP.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Methods have been devised for the electrophoresis and detection, using GLUD, of seven enzymes: cytidine deaminase, adenosine deaminase, adenosine monophosphate deaminase, arginase, argininosuccinase, D-amino acid oxidase, and D-aspartate oxidase. GLUD-linked staining methods appear to be sensitive, specific, and of general application.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -
