    Notes: Summary The sera of 30 patients suffering from schizophrenia (DSM III) and 30 neurological controls were tested for antibrain antibodies in a blind indirect immunofluorescence assay. We found IgG- and IgM-binding in the sera of 22 patients, but only 4 out of the 30 age- and sex-matched controls. The binding was mainly directed to neurons from the frontal cortex and septal area, areas, which are regarded as important in the development of schizophrenic illness. These preliminary data are presented, to encourage other immunological studies in schizophrenia research.

    Notes: Abstract In advanced stages of Parkinson’s disease problems of speech, mobility and balance occur with a high frequency. Although the symptoms of the disease can be treated by specific and individual pharmacotherapy, some of the severe symptoms such as freezing, falls, unsteadiness, and dysarthria persist. To evaluate the potential use of additional therapies, a diagnosis of all current symptoms must be performed; afterwards a specific individual treatment can be decided by the therapist based on objective data. Only if the initial evaluations of a new therapy show improvement, will such therapies be subjected to long-term evaluation, which should be also performed by the patient. This contribution presents examples of a useful prediagnosis and of the evaluation of the conventional physiotherapy. Also, two new methods are evaluated as additional therapies: low-frequency muscle stimulation and magnetic pulse therapy. A thorough symptomatic diagnostic view, specifically directed additional therapy and the careful evaluation of the use of therapies provide the only meaningful treatment of Parkinson’s disease.

    Notes: Summary T-lymphocyte subpopulations were examined in the peripheral blood of 30 acute schizophrenic patients and compared with 30 age- and sex-matched patients with non-inflammatory neurological diseases. Significant increases in the numbers of Pan-T and T-helper cells were found in schizophrenic patients compared to the controls. The interindividual variability of values in the group of schizophrenic patients was greater than in the group of neurological patients.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Computer-Analyse von 1782 Krankengeschichten von Patienten mit großen Abdominaloperationen im Alter über 70 (Letalität 21 %) ermittelt folgende Risikofaktoren: Hb 〈 10 g %, Kreatinin 〉 1,5 mg %, Ges.EW 〈 6 g %, Kalium 〈 3,5 mmol/l. Die präoperativen Befunde korrelieren mit postoperativen Komplikationen und Letalität. Durch präoperative Intensivtherapie: Ausgleich von Defiziten, hypercalorische Infusionstherapie, intensives Atemtraining kann bei Z/s aller Patienten das Operationsrisiko gesenkt werden. Eine Checkliste zur Risikoeinschätzung in der Alterschirurgie ermöglicht die präoperative Beurteilung des Operationsrisikos.
    Notes: Summary 15 percent of the surgical patients today are 70 years of age and older (lethality 21 %). A computer analysis of 1,782 surgical case histories has shown that not the age itself, but the high comorbidity is the essential factor of perioperative risk: Hemoglobine 〈 10 g %, creatinine 〉 1.5 mg %, serumproteines 〈 6 g %, potassium 〈 3.5 mmol/1. The intensive care in the elderly patient has to be started preoperatively as a preparatory treatment: metabolic deficiencies have to be compensated, hypercaloric infusion therapy and intensive breathing exercises are necessary. A scale of the operative risks in the elderly is proposed.
