    Notes: Summary The ratio between large and small carboxy-terminal forms of cholecystokinin in brain extracts from man, pig, dog, rat, chicken, frog and trout was determined by two sequence-specific radioimmunoassays. It was found that the relative amounts of large forms of cholecystokinin; are higher in mammalian brain than in brains of lower species.

    Notes: Summary Patients with diabetes mellitus are at increased risk of developing gallstones. This has been attributed, among other factors, to alterations in gallbladder motility in the presence of autonomic neuropathy. Since high blood glucose concentrations impair gastric emptying in diabetic patients, we have investigated the effect of acute hyperglycaemia on gallbladder motility. Seven Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetic patients were studied twice during euglycaemia (blood glucose 5 mmol/l) and hyperglycaemia (blood glucose 15 mmol/l) using a clamp technique. In addition, seven healthy volunteers were studied during euglycaemia and hyperglycaemia. Gallbladder volumes, measured with ultrasonography, were studied before and during infusion of step-wise increasing doses of cholecystokinin-33, 0.25, 0.5 and 1.0 Ivy Dog Unit·kg−1·h−1, each dose for 30 min. Mean basal gallbladder volumes were not significantly different in the four experiments. Administration of cholecystokinin resulted in significant (p 〈0.05) dose-dependent reductions in gallbladder volume in all experiments. During euglycaemia the gallbladder contraction in diabetic patients was not significantly different from the control subjects. During hyperglycaemia the gallbladder contraction in the diabetic patients was significantly (p 〈0.05) reduced compared to euglycaemia only during infusion of 0.25 Ivy Dog Unit·kg−1·h−1 of cholecystokinin (19±6 % vs 33±6 %). Compared to euglycaemia, during hyperglycaemia the gallbladder contraction in the control subjects was significantly (p 〈0.05) reduced during infusion of 0.25, 0.5 and 1.0 Ivy Dog Unit·kg−1·h−1 of cholecystokinin (14±4 % vs 31±3 %; 42±6 % vs 65±5 %; 74±4 % vs 90±3 %, respectively). It is concluded that during euglycaemia the gallbladder contraction in response to cholecystokinin in Type 1 diabetic patients is not significantly different from control subjects. During hyperglycaemia the gallbladder contraction in response to 0.25 Ivy Dog Unit·kg−1·h−1 cholecystokinin, leading to cholecystokinin levels as observed after ingestion of a light meal, is significantly reduced in Type 1 diabetic patients.

    Notes: Summary Successful transplantation of isolated islets of Langerhans has been reported in large mammals, including man, but metabolic control has not been well-established. We studied the glucose and islet hormone response to fasting, i. v. glucose bolus infusion, i.v. arginine bolus infusion during a 35-mmol/l hyperglycaemic clamp, mixed meals, and i. v. insulin-induced hypoglycaemia up to 3 years after intrasplenic islet autotransplantation in six pancreatectomised dogs. The individual postprandial insulinogenic index (ratio of 2-h postprandial insulin to glucose levels) at 1 month post-transplant, predicted (r=0.99) the time to functional graft failure (6–175 weeks). Metabolic studies at 6 months post-transplant in four dogs demonstrated normal fasting glucose and hormone levels, except for reduced pancreatic polypeptide levels. Intravenous glucose and arginine-stimulated insulin were reduced to 15% of preoperative values. In contrast, postprandial normoin-sulinaemia was observed — albeit with moderate hyperglycaemia (approximately 10 mmol/l). Postprandial glucagon and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) had increased. Comparison of the post-transplant insulin responses to a meal and to intravenous challenges demonstrated maximal stimulation of the graft by the meal. Post-transplant pancreatic polypeptide responses to a meal and i.v. arginine were severely reduced, and no pancreatic polypeptide response to i.v. insulin-induced hypoglycaemia was observed — indicating absence of cholinergic reinnervation. Thus, glucose regulation and both the insulin secretory capacity and life expectancy of islet grafts were best documented by meal testing. Tentatively, a postprandial hyperglycaemia-enhanced incretin effect of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and other gut hormones may account for the difference in the insulin response to i. v. glucose and a meal. Aside from the reduced insulin secretory capacity, both a deranged pulsatile delivery of insulin, hyperglucagonaemia, and pancreatic polypeptide deficiency may have been conducive to glucose intolerance.

    Notes: Abstract. The inguinofemoral region is a crossroads of numerous vascular, nervous and muscular structures. As even the most astute clinician can have difficulty in correctly diagnosing the cause of complaints or a mass in the groin and thigh region, radiological investigation is frequently warranted. For the radiologist involved, knowledge of the anatomy and specific pathology of the groin is essential. This paper deals with the imaging characteristics of the various diseases in the inguinofemoral triangle. Furthermore, this article provides an overview of the role of the various imaging modalities in the evaluation of disease in the groin and upper thigh. A sound working knowledge of groin anatomy and pathology is mandatory. The various imaging modalities used should be considered complementary.

    Notes: Summary A study has been done in 10 male healthy volunteers of the effect of oral omeprazole 20 mg daily for 3 days on the serum concentrations of Pepsinogens A and C in relation to changes in fasting serum gastrin and basal and pentagastrin stimulated gastric acid output. The concentrations of Pepsinogens A and C showed concomitant and variable but significant increases, and the Pepsinogen A, C ratio did not change during the 3-day course of omeprazole. The increments were also significantly correlated with the increase in fasting serum gastrin and with the reduction in pentagastrin stimulated acid output. The correlations were mainly due to the marked inhibition of gastric acid secretion and the corresponding increases in serum gastrin and Pepsinogens A and C in two subjects, as in the other 8 subjects the changes were only modest. There appears to be a relationship, therefore, between the degree of inhibition of acid by omeprazole and the parallel increases in both serum pepsinogens and fasting gastrin.

    Notes: Abstract Cholecystokinin (CCK) is the major hormonal stimulus of gallbladder contraction. Both somatostatin and CCK-A receptor antagonists inhibit stimulation of the gallbladder by CCK. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of somatostatin and the CCK-A receptor antagonist loxiglumide (CR 1505) on gallbladder volume at baseline and after feeding. In random order nine healthy subjects received somatostatin (IV loading dose 125 μg, followed by IV infusion of 125 μg · h−1), loxiglumide (10 mg · kg−1 · h−1) and control saline. Gallbladder volumes and plasma CCK levels were measured basally and during stimulation by an intraduodenal infusion of fat using, respectively, ultrasound and a sensitive and specific radioimmunoassay. Mean basal gallbladder volume was similar prior to the saline control (28.5 ml), loxiglumide (28.7 ml) and somatostatin (23.4 ml) experiments. In the control experiment, intraduodenal fat led to a significant increase in plasma CCK from 2.6 to 4.8 pmol · l−1, accompanied by contraction of the gallbladder to 2.0 ml. Loxiglumide induced dilatation of the gallbladder to 40 ml and prevented the any contraction in response to intraduodenal fat. During the somatostatin infusion, gallbladder volume remained the same both basally and during fat stimulation. The plasma CCK response to intraduodenal fat was exaggerated by loxiglumide and was abolished by somatostatin. We conclude that there are major differences between the effects of loxiglumide and somatostatin on gallbladder motility. Loxiglumide dilates the gallbladder, while somatostatin prevents its contraction during fat stimulation.

    Notes: Summary Cholecystokinin (CCK)-receptor antagonists have been reported to inhibit the effects of the hormone on the gastrointestinal tract. Their effect on plasma CCK levels in man has not been described. The present study in 5 normal subjects demonstrated that i.v. infusion of the potent, specific CCK-receptor antagonist loxiglumide (CR 1505) significantly augmented plasma CCK levels during infusion of bombesin (402 pM per 30 min) and after administration of a meal (1390 pM per 300 min) when compared to the bombesin- (192 pM per 30 min) and meal- (886 pM per 300 min) stimulated CCK responses during infusion of saline. The basal plasma CCK during saline infusion (0.1 pM per 40 min) was not significantly influenced by CR 1505 (−1.8 pM per 40 min). Thus, both enteral (meal) and parenteral (bombesin) stimulation of CCK secretion are augmented by CCK-receptor blockade.

    Notes: Summary The effects of single dose (20 mg) and short-term (20 mg/day for 8 days) oral treatment with omeprazole on the pharmacokinetics and effects of oral nifedipine (10 mg capsule) and on gastric pH have been investigated in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled cross-over study in 10 non-smoking healthy male subjects. The single dose of omeprazole had no significant effect on any pharmacokinetic parameter of nifedipine, nor on gastric pH, or blood pressure or heart rate. Short-term omeprazole treatment increased the AUC of nifedipine by 26% (95% confidence interval 9–46%), but all other pharmacokinetic parameters of nifedipine, including elimination half-life, Cmax, tmax, and recovery of the main urinary metabolite, were not significantly changed. The median gastric pH during the absorption phase of nifedipine was increased by short-term omeprazole (pH 4.2) compared to placebo treatment (pH 1.4). Blood pressure and heart rate did not differ between treatments. The interaction between nifedipine and omeprazole is not likely to be of major clinical relevance.

    Notes: Background : Drugs for the management of cardiovascular disease may provoke gastrointestinal discomfort and complications.Aim : To evaluate whether upper gastrointestinal symptoms affect the health status of patients with cardiovascular disease.Methods : Two weeks after discharge, 958 consecutive patients, who had been admitted to the Coronary Care Unit of the University Hospital Nijmegen between January and September 2001, were sent a questionnaire for the evaluation of gastrointestinal symptoms and health status.Results : The questionnaire was returned by 632 patients (66%), with 334 patients (53%) reporting gastrointestinal symptoms. The self-rated health status (mean and 95% confidence interval), evaluated by visual analogue scale, was 70 (68–72) for patients without and 61 (59–63) for patients with gastrointestinal symptoms (P = 0.001). Patients with gastrointestinal symptoms reported significantly higher rates of problems with mobility (50% vs. 37%), self-care (19% vs. 10%), usual activities (70% vs. 52%), pain/discomfort (96% vs. 38%) and anxiety/depression (41% vs. 20%) when compared with those without gastrointestinal symptoms.Conclusion : Upper gastrointestinal symptoms strongly impaired the health status of patients with cardiovascular disease.
