    Notes: Three patients acquired Pseudomonas pneumonia while they received mechanical ventilation. Detailed microbiological studies on these cases showed direct surface spread of pseudomonads from ventilator tubing into the airways. The ventilator tubing was not sterilised properly by liquid disinfectant due to air-trapping and inadequate drying. Proper cold sterilisation not only of nebulisers and humidifiers, but also of ventilator tubings, is emphasised.

    Notes: Seven young extrinsic asthmatics participated in an open, pilot study to determine the protective effect of a selective 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) blocking agent, ketanserin, on exercise induced asthma. ketanserin in a dose of 10 mg given intravenously 20 min before exercise altered the basal bronchomotor tone in only 1 of 6 subjects and offered partial protection against exercise-induced bronchoconstriction in 1 of 5 asthmatics with no overall effect in the group. All patients experienced sleepiness after administration of ketanserin and one had bradycardia with hypotension. The ineffectiveness of ketanserin suggests indirectly that serotonin has a limited role in the pathogenesis of exercise-induced asthma.

    Notes: Sodium cromoglycate (SCG) powder often clumps in the presence of high humidity, making inhalation ineffective. A pressurized aerosol containing 1 mg SCG per actuation was made; and a double-blind cross-over trial in twenty-four young patients with perennial extrinsic asthma over 8 weeks showed that 2 mg of SCG aerosol was as effective as 20 mg of the powder, and almost all patients preferred using the aerosol.

    Notes: The protective effect of inhaled verapamil (estimated dose 2-4 mg) and sub-lingual nifedipine (20 mg) against allergen-induced asthma were each assessed by the administration of calcium antagonists 30 min before bronchial provocation tests using Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus extracts on eight young perennial asthmatics. Neither drug changed the basal forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) or the provocation dose of allergen required to cause a 20% fall in FEV1 (PD20 FEV1). That calcium antagonists are ineffective in preventing allergen-induced asthma suggest indirectly that mechanism other than mediator release from mast cells may also be involved.

    Notes: A vender developed an immediate asthmatic reaction while removing feathers from poultry using a heated colophony-based mixture. Occupational-type provocation tests confirmed that he reacted to fumes of colophony alone.

    Notes: Summary Forty patients with advanced adenocarcinoma of the lung were treated by two FAM chemotherapy schedules. Group A (20 patients) received Futraful, adriamycin, and mitomycin C, and group B (20 patients) received 5-fluorouracil, adriamycin, and mitomycin C. The response/stabilization rate was greater for group B (4 partial responses +4 cases of stable disease) than for group A (no responders +5 cases of stable disease), and the median survival was longer for group B (32 weeks) than for group A (22 weeks), although the differences did not reach statistical significance in either case (P〉0.05). Myelotoxicity was mild in both schedules. Further studies of the two FAM schemes at an escalated dose would be worth-while.

    Notes: Summary Fifty patients with inoperable adenocarcinoma of the lung were randomized in a prospective study to receive either standard doses or high doses of 5-fluorouracil, adriamycin, and mitomycin-C (FAM versus Hi-FAM). The response/stabilization rate was 32% for FAM and 34% for Hi-FAM (P〉0.05), and the median survival was 27 weeks for FAM group and 24 weeks for Hi-FAM group (P〉0.05). Myelotoxicity was mild in FAM, but moderate to severe in Hi-FAM. It is concluded that Hi-FAM did not yield a higher response rate or median survival compared with FAM, but caused significantly more severe myelotoxicity.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung In einer noch nicht abgeschlossenen Placebo-kontrollierten Doppelblindstudie zum Vergleich von Ofloxacin und Amoxicillin wurden 32 erwachsene stationäre Patienten mit einem infektiösen Schub bei Bronchiektasie behandelt. Zufallsgemäß erhielten sie zehn Tage lang entweder 200 mg Ofloxacin oder 1 g Amoxicillin dreimal täglich oral verabreicht. In der Ofloxacingruppe (15 Patienten) wurde in 11 Fällen ein hervorragendes Therapieergebnis (klinische Heilung), bei drei Patienten ein befriedigendes Therapieergebnis (klinische Besserung oder frühe Reinfektion) und in einem Fall Therapieversagen beobachtet. In der Amoxicillingruppe (17 Patienten) sprachen sechs Patienten ausgezeichnet auf die Therapie an, bei fünf war das Ergebnis befriedigend und bei sechs Patienten schlecht (Therapieversagen). 2 h nach Applikation von Ofloxacin wurden am fünften Therapietag Ofloxacinserumspiegel von 2,3 bis 8,2 mg/l (im Mittel 3,9 mg/l) und Sputumspiegel von 1,3 bis 15 mg/l (im Mittel 4,5 mg/l) gemessen. Der Quotient von Sputum- und Serumkonzentration betrug 1,2:1. Die Amoxicillinserumspiegel 2 h nach Applikation betrugen 10 bis 40 mg/l (im Mittel 19,9 mg/l) und die Sputumkonzentrationen 0 bis 1,5 mg/l (im Mittel 0,3 mg/l). Bei zehn der 17 Patienten war Amoxicillin im Sputum nicht nachzuweisen. Der Quotient von Sputum- und Serumkonzentration betrug 0,02:1. Bei einem Patienten der Ofloxacin-Gruppe trat Übelkeit auf. In der Amoxicillin-Gruppe klagten vier Patienten über Übelkeit und Magenschmerzen, einer über Schwindel, und ein Patient hatte eine vorübergehende Blut-Eosinophilie. Ofloxacin erreichte im Sputum in der Behandlung infektiöser Episoden bei Bronchiektasie höhere Konzentrationen und schien wirksamer und besser verträglich zu sein als Amoxicillin.
    Notes: Summary 32 hospitalized adult patients with infective episodes of bronchiectasis were enrolled in an ongoing double-blind, placebo-controlled study comparing ofloxacin with amoxicillin. They were randomized to receive either 200 mg ofloxacin or 1 g amoxicillin, both t.i.d.orally for ten days. In the ofloxacin group (15 patients), clinical response was excellent (clinical cure) in 11 and fair (clinical improvement or early reinfection) in three patients with one failure. In the amoxicillin group (17 patients), clinical response was excellent in six, fair in five, and poor (treatment failure) in six patients. Ofloxacin levels at 2 h (day 5) were 2.3 to 8.2 mg/l (mean 3.9 mg/l) for serum and 1.3 to 15 mg/l (mean 4.5 mg/l) for sputum. Sputum: serum ratio was 1.2:1. Amoxicillin levels at 2 h were 10 to 40 mg/l (mean 19.9 mg/l) for serum and 0 to 1.5 mg/l (mean 0.3 mg/l) for sputum, with no amoxicillin detected in sputum in 10 of 17 patients. Sputum: serum ratio was 0.02:1. One patient in the ofloxacin group had nausea. In the amoxicillin group, four patients had nausea and stomach pain, one had vertigo and one had transient peripheral eosinophilia. Ofloxacin thus yielded higher sputum concentration and appeared to be more effective and better tolerated than amoxicillin in infective episodes of bronchiectasis.
