    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Es wird ein Fall von Riesenzellarteriitis der intrakraniellen Gefäße beschrieben, welcher bei der Autopsie diagnostiziert wurde. Bei diesem 60jährigen Mann war der histologische Befund der Riesenzellarteriitis in den proximalen Abschnitten der Gefäße der Gehirnbasis ungewöhnlich ausgeprägt. Es werden der klinische Verlauf, die Laboratoriumsbefunde und die histologischen Veränderungen des Gehirnes und der basalen Hirngefäße beschrieben. Der Fall wird anhand der Literatur über Riesenzellarteriitis mit zerebralen Symptomen diskutiert unter Einbezug der Fälle über granulomatöse Riesenzellarteriitis des Gehirnes. Eine Trennung dieser beiden Krankheitsbilder erscheint den Autoren nicht berechtigt.
    Notes: Summary A case of giant cell arteritis of intracranial vessels diagnosed by autopsy is described. Giant cell arteritis of the proximal basal brain arteries was exceptionally marked in a man of 60 years. The clinical course, laboratory findings and the pathological alterations of the brain and intracranial blood vessels are described. The case is discussed on the basis of the literature on giant cell arteritis with cerebral symptoms as well as on granulomatous giant cells arteritis of the brain. A separation of these two entities does not seem justified.

    Notes: Abstract In a placebo-controlled study, we investigated the influence of nicotine on late-day aviation performance in 15 non-smoking subjects. In a within-subjects design, subjects were tested on 2 days, each lasting 8 h and consisting of three 75-min simulator flights (late-afternoon practice, evening test, night test). Prior to each test, subjects received either nicotine polacrilex 2 mg or placebo gum. As expected, overall performance was significantly better after nicotine, compared to placebo (P 〈 0.01). Post-hoc analysis of individual flight tasks showed that nicotine improved scores on approach to landing, a task which appears to require sustained attention. We conclude that nicotine may improve late-day flight performance in non-smoking aviators.
