    Incidence of post-lumbar puncture headache is independent of daily fluid intake (1988)

    Notes: Summary The clinical practice of advising patients to increase their daily fluid intake after lumbar puncture in order to increase CSF production by re-hydration and thus try to prevent post-lumbar puncture headache (PLPH) has not yet been shown to be effective. In 100 patients the different effects of re-hydration on the incidence of PLPH (1.51 compared with 3.01 oral fluid per day over a period of 5 days) were tested prospectively. The incidence of PLPH was independent of the amount of fluid intake in both groups (18, 36%), as was the duration of PLPH. The physiology of CSF production and resorption suggests that PLPH is not a problem of CSF dynamics but a simple mechanical problem of how to close the dural rent and thereby stop the continuous leakage. It is no longer justifiable to advise patients to drink more than usual since there is no physiological or empirical basis for this and it does not seem to have even a placebo effect.

    Is obligatory bed rest after lumbar puncture obsolete? (1985)
    Springer
    European archives of psychiatry and clinical neuroscience 235 (1985), S. 71-75 
    Details
    ISSN: 1433-8491
    Keywords: Post-lumbar puncture headache ; Posture

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary After lumbar puncture (LP) an epidural CSF leakage caused by delayed closure of a dural defect leads to a decrease in CSF pressure. The resultant venous dilatation as well as downward shift of the brain with traction on pain-sensitive blood vessels and nerves frequently evokes post-lumbar puncture headache (PLPH), when the patient assumes the upright position. In previous studies differing opinions have been expressed about the prophylactic value of the posture taken by the patient after LP. The present study was designed to evaluate the benefit of the decrease of hydrostatic CSF pressure on the dural rent, when the patient lies down in a prone position with the head tilted down at an angle of 10° for 30 min immediately after LP: is it possible to accelerate the closure of the dural defect in this way and prevent PLPH? One group of patients (n = 78) lay in a prone position with the head tilted down at an angle of 10° for 30 min, the other group (n = 82) rose immediately after LP. PLPH was found to be independent of the posture in both groups and affected 44% and 41% of the patients, respectively, so that there is no longer any justification for requiring patients to remain in bed after LP.

    A micromethod for typing haptoglobin in bloodstains (1987)
    Weinheim : Wiley-Blackwell
    Electrophoresis 8 (1987), S. 373-374

    Topics: Biology , Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: A micromethod of discontinuous polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis is described for phenotyping human haptoglobin in bloodstains. Pretreatment of samples is not required. This procedure is easy, fast and can detect haptoglobin phenotypes in 0.02 μL blood in experimentally produced stains.

    Simultaneous phenotyping of erythrocyte acid phosphatase and esterase D by nonequilibrium agarose isoelectric focusing (1989)

    Notes: Nonequilibrium agarose isoelectric focusing in a pH 4.5-7 gradient with 3-(N-morpholinopropanesulfonic) acid (MOPS) and taurine as chemical separators presents a fast, easy and reliable method for the simultaneous determination of the common erythrocyte acid phosphatase and esterase D phenotypes in hemolysates and dried bloodstains. The application of the method to experimental and casework bloodstains is described.
