    Notes: Background and Aims: Induction of the pro-fibrotic growth factor TGF-β1 has been suggested as a possible mechanism through which immunosuppressant drugs may induce gingival overgrowth. This study aims to investigate plasma levels of TGF-β1 and relate them to the development and severity of gingival overgrowth in immunosuppressed transplant patients.Materials and Methods: One hundred and thirty-two ciclosporin-treated and 13 tacrolimus-treated transplant patients and 24 drug-free control subjects underwent a full periodontal examination including a determination of the presence and severity of gingival overgrowth.Results: Plasma TGF-β1 concentrations were determined by ELISA, and were found to be significantly elevated in samples from the transplant patients (mean=29.1 ng/ml) as compared with controls (mean=6.1 ng/ml, p〈0.0001). There was no significant difference between the levels of plasma TGF-β1 in the ciclosporin- and tacrolimus-treated patient groups.Conclusions: Furthermore, concomitant treatment with calcium channel blockers did not influence the levels of plasma TGF-β1 in the patients group. The relationship between gingival overgrowth, independent periodontal variables and TGF-β1 plasma concentrations was examined using univariate and multivariate regression analyses; low TGF-β1 plasma concentrations were found to be a risk factor for gingival overgrowth in immunosuppressed patients concomitantly receiving a calcium channel blocker.

    Notes: Summary This study aimed to examine the attitudes of intensivists and haematologists to the use of blood and blood products using a scenario-based postal questionnaire. One hundred and sixty-two intensivists and 77 haematologists responded to the survey. In four scenarios, the baseline haemoglobin thresholds for red cell transfusion ranged from 6 to 12 g.dl−1. There was significant variation between scenarios (p 〈 0.005). Increasing age, high Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Status II score, surgery, acute respiratory distress syndrome, septic shock and lactic acidosis significantly (p 〈 0.005) modified the transfusion threshold. There were greater variations in the baseline threshold for platelet transfusion. The majority of respondents (72.3%) selected a baseline haemoglobin threshold between 9 and 10 g.dl−1. The thresholds for platelet transfusion were far less consistent.

    Notes: Summary This prospective observational study was conducted to assess the current transfusion practice in critically ill patients. One thousand two hundred and forty-seven consecutive critically ill patients admitted between February 1999 and October 1999 were included in the study. Overall 666 (53%) patients were administered red cells. Transfused patients had significantly higher intensive care unit␣mortality but also had higher Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II scores and longer durations of stay. The average pretransfusion haemoglobin concentration was 〈 9 g.dl−1 in 75% of transfusion episodes. The common indications for transfusion were low haemoglobin (72%) and haemorrhage (25%). Overall, 202 (16%) and 281 (22%) of the patients were transfused platelets and fresh frozen plasma, respectively. The indications for transfusion were haemorrhage, low platelet counts, prolonged prothrombin time or to provide cover for invasive interventions. Most platelet transfusions were given at values in the order of 50–100 × 109.l−1. The pretransfusion platelet count varied according to the indications for transfusion. This study showed that transfusion practice is consistent and that in general there does not seem to be an excessive use of blood components in critically ill patients.

    Notes: Summary Rats with chronic electrodes in the lateral hypothalamus were induced by electrical stimulation to self-stimulate and drink. The effect of this artificially-elicited drinking on self-stimulation behavior was investigated. Self-stimulation rates at optimal current levels were not changed by induced water intake. However, with the current level just above threshold for self-stimulation the rate was increased significantly when the animals were able to self-stimulate and drink simultaneously. It is suggested that sensory feed-back from the consummatory behavior facilitates the activation of neural circuits in the lateral hypothalamus so that low current stimulation more effectively reinforces self-stimulation.

    Notes: [Auszug] By means of X-ray crystal analysis we have investigated the structure of 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BUDR) and that of the closely related 5-bromouridine (BUR). These molecules differ by only one oxygen atom (Fig. 1), and it is of interest to see what differences exist between their conformations. BUDR ...

    Notes: Abstract Objective: To assess the incidence of acute renal failure (ARF) developing perioperatively in adult patients requiring cardiopulmonary bypass surgery (CPB) and to make comparisons with data from the same institution published earlier. Design: Prospective, observational. Setting: Tertiary referral centre for cardiopulmonary medicine. Patients and participants: All patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) who developed ARF perioperatively necessitating continuous veno-venous haemofiltration (CVVH) during the 24 months January 1997–December 1998. Interventions: None. Measurements and results: Of 2337 adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery, 47 (2.0 %) needed CVVH. Patients were excluded from analysis who underwent cardiac transplantation (n = 4), pericardial surgery (n = 3) or insertion of a left ventricular assist device (n = 1). Of the remaining 39, 21 patients died in ICU (53.8 % mortality). Relatively more non-survivors suffered from diabetes, hypertension and preoperative renal dysfunction. A previous report from our Unit revealed that, in 1989–90, 2.7 % of all patients undergoing CPB required CVVH with an in-hospital mortality of 83 %. The current study population were older (65.3 vs 56.0 years in 1990), and more severely ill as evidenced by a higher percentage of patients requiring redo (30 % vs 8.6 % in 1990) and emergency (50 % vs 25.7 % in 1990) surgery. Conclusions: The need for CVVH following CPB may be diminishing despite increased risk factors. ARF-associated mortality in these circumstances is falling.
