    Notes: Summary Eight patients with normal-pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) were studied. The resting mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) was 100 (90–125)mmHg and the mean intracranial pressure (ICP) was 11 (5–17)mmHg. ICP and MABP were continuously measured intraventricularly and intra-arterially, respectively. Changes in global cerebral blood flow (CBF) were estimated by the arteriovenous oxygen difference method. Intravenous nimodipine (15 microgram/kg/hour) was given in the first 2 hours and 30 microgram/kg/hour in the next 2 hours. MABP was reduced 23 (4–47)mmHg (p〈0.05). ICP was increased 3 (0–10)mmHg (p 〈 0.05). CBF was unchanged in the group on the whole, but in 4 of patients a major drop in perfusion pressure was seen, and CBF decreased 6, 11, 23 and 34%, respectively. Thus these findings underline the importance of maintaining the perfusion pressure under treatment with nimodipine.

    Notes: Summary The present study was undertaken in 8 healthy volunteers to examine the effect of a clinically relevant dose of nimodipine (NIM) (15 and 30 microgram/kg/h) on CBF, its CO2 reactivity, and CMRO2. Mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) was measured intra-arterially. Regional CBF was measured by SPECT of inhaled Xenon-133. During the CO2 reactivity tests changes in CBF were estimated by the arterio-venous-oxygen-difference method. Median CBF was 52 ml/ 100 g/min (48–53) with a normal regional distribution, and median baseline MABP was 96 mmHg (92–99). MABP was slightly reduced, by 8 mmHg (7–9), and 9 mmHg (4–11) after infusion of NIM for 2 and 4 hours, respectively. CBF, however, remained constant, although correction for changes in PaCO2, revealed a slight increase after 4 hours (p=0.08). CMRO2 was 3.5 ml/100 g/min (3.2–3.5) and was not changed by the infusion of NIM. At arterial CO2 tensions ranging from 4.0 to 6.5 Kpa the CO2 reactivity was 3.0% CBF/ 0.1 kPa (2.6–3.7) and decreased significantly to 2.6% CBF/0.1 kPa (1.8–3.2) after the infusion of NIM for 3 hours (p=0.02). The median slope of the LnCBFsat/PaCO2 relationship was 1.5 at baseline compared to 1.3 after NIM (p〈0.01). No side effects were observed. The present study shows a decreased CO2 of the cerebral vessels and a maintained coupling of CBF and CMRO2 during the infusion of nimodipine.

    Notes: Abstract Males of the European and African beewolf,Philanthus triangulum, possess a sex specific mandibular gland secretion that is used for marking plant stems in mating territories. The secretion is composed of 90% (Z)-11-eicosen-1-ol plus small amounts of 10-nonadecen-2-one, nonadecenal, octadecanoic and octadecenoic acids, and eicosenal. The chemistry of this secretion differs markedly from the secretions of North AmericanPhilanthus, which consist of a larger number of components that possess different chemical functionalities and are more volatile. We postulate that the chemical differences betweenP. triangulum and its New World relatives reflect phylogenetic differences plus a possible reduced necessity for species isolating mechanisms inP. triangulum.

    Notes: Abstract The composition of the territorial marking pheromones from mandibular glands of males of the beewolvesPhilanthus crabroniformis, P. barbatus, andP. pulcher have been determined. The structures of the components were elucidated by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and gas chromatography-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The major compound ofP. crabroniformis is isopropyl tetradecanoate, with somewhat lesser amounts of 2-tridecanone, 3-methyl-3-butenyl tetradecanoate, and 92∶8 (Z)∶(E)-11-eicosen-1-ol. The major compounds ofP. barbatus are ethyl tetradecanoate and hexadecanal, which are present in approximately a 60∶40 ratio. These two compounds comprise over 95% of the neutral lipids. Also present in lesser amounts are ethyl dodecanoate, tetradecanal, hexadecan-1-ol, a Δ x -octadecen-1-ol, and octadecan-1-ol. The major compounds ofP. pulcher are ethyl (Z)-7-hexadecenoate and geranylgeraniol acetate, which comprise nearly 90% of the neutral lipid fraction, with smaller amounts of tetradecanal, pentadecanal, and ethyl hexadecanoate; trace amounts of Δ x hexadecenal, hexadecanal, and octadecanal are also present.
