    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung 17 Patienten im Alter von 40±9 Jahren mit essentieller Hypertonie wurden mit Propranolol als Monotherapie oral in Dosen von 120, 160 oder 240 mg pro die behandelt. Nach 4wöchiger Behandlung konnten der Blutdruck und die Herzfrequenz statistisch signifikant gesenkt werden und blieben auch bei Fortsetzung der Therapie nach insgesamt 6 Monaten unverändert. Die Plasmareninaktivität betrug vor Behandlungsbeginn 5,7±6,3 ng/ml/h und sank nach 4wöchiger Behandlung auf 1,8±1,3 ng/ml/h ab. 5 Monate später stieg das Plasmarenin im Durchschnitt wieder auf 5,0±0,9 ng/ml/h an. Der erneute Anstieg war ebenfalls statistisch signifikant zu sichern. Von den 17 Patienten hatten nach 6 monatiger Therapie noch 7 (41%) eine niedrigere Plasmareninaktivität als vor Behandlungsbeginn. Davon lagen aber nur 3 (18%) unter dem Wert, der nach 4wöchiger Behandlungsdauer bestimmt wurde. Aus den genannten Befunden wird geschlossen, daß der Wiederanstieg der Plasmareninaktivität möglicherweise ein reaktiver Mechanismus auf die langzeitige Blutdrucksenkung ist. Die Erniedrigung der Plasmareninaktivität nach Kurzzeitbehandlung mit Propranolol kann nicht als ein Mechanismus für den antihypertensiven Effekt dieses Medikaments bei der Langzeitbehandlung angesehen werden.
    Notes: Summary 17 patients (40±9 years) with essential hypertension were included in the study. A monotherapy of 120, 160 or 240 mg propranolol per day was administered orally according to the antihypertensive effect. Four weeks after treatment, blood pressure and heart rate showed a statistically significant decrease and remained unchanged over a period of six months. Plasma renin activity decreased significantly from 5.7±6.3 ng/ml/h at the beginning of the study to 1.8±1.3 ng/ml/h after 4 weeks. 5 months later however plasma renin activity increased again to 5.0±0.9 ng/ml/h. The difference was statistically significant. From 17 patients 7 (41%) had lower levels of plasma renin activity after 6 months treatment when compared with pretreatment values. In only 3 patients (18%) was plasma renin activity lower after 6 months than after four weeks. We conclude that the increase in plasma renin activity is a reactive mechanism to the reduced blood pressure under long-term conditions. The decrease of plasma renin activity in short-term treatment of essential hypertension is not a mechanism responsible for the antihypertensive effect of propranolol during long-term treatment.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die „stadiengerechte Therapie” der akuten Pankreatitis, die jedem Schweregrad der Erkrankung angemessen ist, besteht neben der konservativen Basistherapie und Intensivmedizin im richtigen Einsatz operativer Maßnahmen. Voraussetzung dafür ist die frühe Diagnose und Beurteilung des Schweregrades der akuten Pankreatitis. Neben klinischen und klinisch-chemischen Befunden und dem Verlauf unter konservativer Therapie ermöglichen die Sonographie und die Computer-Tomographie eine bessere Beurteilung der jeweiligen Verlaufsform. Die für die Klinik der Erkrankung so wichtigen morphologischen Veränderungen der Bauchspeicheldrüse und ihrer Umgebung werden durch diese neuartigen Untersuchungsmethoden transparenter. Wäh rend bei der leichten Pankreatitis die Sonographie als erstes morphologisches Untersuchungsverfahren eingesetzt wird, besteht bei den schweren Verlaufsformen eine klassische Indikation zur Computer-Tomographie. Durch Einsatz von Sonographie und Computer-Tomographie läßt sich die Indikation zur frühzeitigen oder verzögerten Operation der hämorrhagisch-nekrotisierenden Pankreatitis, die bisher nach klinischen Kriterien erfolgte, in den meisten Fällen exakter stellen.
    Notes: Summary Adequate stage-depending therapy of acute pancreatitis includes basic conservative treatment, intensive care measurements, and operative interventions depending on the grade of severity. Prerequisites are early diagnosis and accurate clinical assessment of the stage of severity. Beside clinical and laboratory findings, as well as the development of acute pancreatitis under conservative treatment, sonography and computed tomography allow a better prediction of the underlying morphological changes, thus leading to an exact staging of the patient's individual situation. Sonography is regarded a screening procedure of high accuracy in mild forms of acute pancreatitis. Computed tomography is the method of choice in all severe forms of this disease. The indication for immediate or delayed operative treatment of hemorrhagic necrotising pancreatitis, heretofore depending on clinical findings solely, is supported by these new-invasive diagnostic modalities.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die neuen Kunststoffprothesen bestehen aus Polyúrethan, das nach einem speziellen Sprühverfahren verarbeitet wird. Die Prothesen sind längs- und querelastisch sowie mikroporös. In tierexperimentellen Untersuchungen wurden 20mal die terminale Aorta, 24mal die arteria carotis communis und 12mal die arteria femoralis superficialis ersetzt. Die Tiere wurden in regelmäßigen Abst↭den angiographiert. Nach Tötung erfolgten rasterelektronenmikroskopische und histologische Untersuchungen. Von 20 Aortentransplantaten blieben 18 bis zum Zeitpunkt der Tötung, bzw. bis heute offen. In Carotisposition scheinen sich die Transplantate nicht zu bewähren.
    Notes: Summary The new plastic graft consists of polyurethane manufactured in a special spray process. These grafts are elastic both transversally and longitudinally and are microporous. In experiments on animals, the abdominal aorta was substituted 20 times, the common carotid artery 24 times, and the superficial femoral artery 12 times. The animals were regularly subjected to angiographical examinations. After they were killed, they were examined histologically and by means of a scanning electronic microscope. Of the 20 abdominal grafts, 18 have remained open to date. Carotis grafts, however, seemed to fail.

    Notes: Previous studies have shown that sexual activity increases the weight of the accessory sex glands significantly, while the organ weights correlate inversely with the assayable androgen receptor concentrations in the prostate of sexually active versus sexually resting rats. In an effort to determine the structural basis of this phenomenon, the ventral prostates of adult rats kept with female rats for 4-6 months (HE-rats) were compared to those kept in groups of 5 males in one cage (HO-rats) for the same period. As an estimate of the secretory function of the gland the concentration of prostatic binding protein (PBP) was determined in prostatic cytosols using a highly specific ELISA. Catecholamines were measured by means of HPLC and subsequent electrochemical detection. Morphological studies included immunocytochemistry of PBP, visualization of adrenergic nerves, stereological analysis of stromal and glandular compartments of the prostate, and electron microscopy of the epithelium.The main findings were as follows: (1) The prostates of HE-rats were 35% heavier than those of the HO-rats. (2) The content in secretion was in the same range in both HE-rats and HO-rats (1.5 and 1.44 mg PBP per 1 mg DNA). (3) Immunocytochemistry and electron microscopy demonstrated a very homogeneous secretion within the glandular lumen of HO-rats with a diminished amount of secretory material within the glandular cells.In HE-rats the glandular lumina were clearly larger in diameter and intraluminal secretion was less homogeneously stained. The height of the epithelium was increased and the individual secretory cells contained several secretory granules. Within the prostatic stroma the profiles of adrenergic nerves were more numerous in HE-rats, and a greater total amount of noradrenaline was present. At the fine structural level signs of enhanced membrane turnover, such as lysosomal structures, were prominent in prostatic epithelium of HE-rats, while in HO-rats mostly dense bodies were observed. The results indicate that sexual activity results in the functional adaption (activity hypertrophy) of the prostate as a result of nerve-associated control of glandular activity.
