    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé La longueur, le diamètre et la surface développée de chacun des six segments du colon ont été mesurés sur une série de 920 lavements barytés pratiqués chez des patients Japonais. Le colon transverse est le segment le plus long et le plus étendu en surface, suivi par le colon sigmoïde. Le diamètre du colon ascendant est le plus important, tandis que ceux du colon descendant et du sigmoïde sont les plus étroits. Des différences de taille du colon en fonction du sexe ont été observées. La longueur et la surface de la totalité du colon étaient toutes deux moins importantes chez les hommes que chez les femmes. Les longueurs du caecum, du colon ascendant, du colon transverse et du rectum, sont également moins importantes chez les hommes que chez les femmes. Les diamètres du colon descendant, du colon sigmoïde et du rectum sont plus importants chez les hommes que chez les femmes. La surface développée du colon ascendant et du colon transverse est moins étendue chez les hommes que chez les femmes, tandis que le total des surfaces du colon descendant, du colon sigmoïde et du rectum, est plus important chez les hommes que chez les femmes. La longueur totale du colon tend à augmenter avec l'âge. La longueur et la surface de l'ensemble du colon a également tendance à augmenter chez les femmes avec importance du morphotype.
    Notes: Summary Length, diameter and surface area of each of 6 segments of the large intestine were determined and calculated in 920 Japanese patients who underwent barium enema. Of the length and surface area measurements obtained, those of the transverse colon were the largest, followed by those of the sigmoid colon. The diameter of the ascending colon was the largest, while those of the descending colon and sigmoid colon were the smallest. There were various sex differences in size of the large intestine. Length and surface area of the entire large intestine in males were shorter and smaller respectively than those in females. Lengths of the cecum, ascending colon, transverse colon and rectum in males were shorter than those in females. Diameters of the descending colon, sigmoid colon and rectum in males were larger than those in females. Total surface areas of the ascending colon and transverse colon in males were smaller than those in females, while total surface areas of the descending colon, sigmoid colon and rectum in males were larger than those in females. Length of the entire large intestine tended to be increased with age. Length and surface area of the entire large intestine tended to be increased with an increase in physical dimensions in females.

    Notes: Abstract Summary An injection of a local anesthetics in the paravertebral region produces an analgesic field on the same side of the body, a paravertebral block. One point in question about this block is whether the local anesthetic spreads from the thoracic to the lumbar level of the paravertebral region. The purpose of this study was to find how the anesthetic fluid traveled to the lumbar paravertebral region, if at all. Twelve cadavers were used in this study. 15 ml of crimson dye was injected into the paravertebral region at the 11th thoracic level. The viscerae were removed so that we could examine the dye spread. While the crimson dye spread in the endothoracic fascia posterior to the parietal pleura, it also spread downward in the fascia mostly along the splanchnic nerves. At the upper surface of the diaphragm the dye spread laterally in the fascia, and entered the abdominal cavity through the medial and lateral arcuate ligaments. In the abdominal cavity, the dye was found to have spread so widely in the transversalis fascia that the subcostal, iliohypogastric, ilioinguinal, genitofemoral, lateral femoral cutaneous and femoral nerves were involved. We concluded that the dye in the thoracic paravertebral region can enter the abdominal cavity through the medial and lateral arcuate ligaments. This study explained possible fluid communication between the thoracic and lumbar paravertebral regions and confirmed our former clinical observations. The result is important for the future clinical application of paravertebral anesthesia.

    Notes: Summary Erythrocyte aldose reductase was determined in 90 NIDDM patients by a two-site ELISA using recombinant human aldose reductase. The level of aldose reductase did not correlate with age, duration of diabetes, fasting blood glucose and HbA1cof the patients. Among 38 patients with diabetes for more than 10 years, aldose reductase in those with retinopathy (including non-proliferative and proliferative) was significantly higher than in those without, while no difference in the means of the average HbA1c, maximum and minimum blood pressure levels was observed between the two groups. The results indicate that the level of aldose reductase in the erythrocyte of diabetic patients is associated with the presence of retinopathy.

    Notes: Summary Although the insulin gene region is implicated in susceptibility to Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus in Caucasians, significance of this region to Type 1 diabetes in Japanese remains unclear because the class 1 alleles (shorter insertion) of the variable number of tandem repeat in the 5′ region of the insulin gene are predominant in both diabetic and non-diabetic subjects. The 5′ insulin gene polymorphism was analysed in 75 Japanese patients and 69 control subjects with a precise method using PvuII and a polymorphism specific probe, which enabled us to divide class 1 alleles into four subclasses. Allelic frequencies were not significantly different between Type 1 diabetic patients and control subjects. The polymorphism in the 3′ untranslated region of the insulin gene (1127/ PstI) was also analysed and found to be tightly linked to the 5′ insulin gene polymorphism, and thus was not associated with diabetes. Interaction between HLA-DR and the insulin gene region, which was reported in the French study, was not observed in Japanese. These results suggest that the insulin gene region is not a valuable genetic risk factor for Type 1 diabetes in Japanese. [Diabetologia (1994) 37: 210–213]

    Notes: Abstract The highly radioresistant Rubrobacter radiotolerans, contains red pigments. Since the pigments could not be extracted by usual methods, a new method was developed in which the pigments were extracted with organic solvents after addition of 10 N KOH to the intact cells, followed by neutralization. These pigments were also extracted after treatment with achromopeptidase, but not with lysozyme. The extracted pigments separated into two main spots by TLC (48.6% and 22.6%), and were confirmed to be carotenoids by chemical tests. The two major pigments had 13 conjugated double bonds as determined from the main maximum wavelength of the light absorption spectra. Their molecular weights were determined to be 740 and 722 by mass spectrometry. The mass spectra of their TMS-derivatives revealed that they contained four and three tertiary OH groups, respectively. Confirming their identical light and IR spectra, these pigments were determined to be bacterioruberin and monoanhydrobacterioruberin, respectively, the characteristic carotenoids of halophilic bacteria. The existence of these pigments in bacteria other than halobacteria provides interesting new evidence on the distribution of these compounds.

    Notes: : Proteolysis of soy protein isolates (SPI) was investigated by using pepsin with a pH of 1.5 to 4.0 at 37°C and papain at a temperature of 37°C to 80°C with pH 7.0. The glycinin fraction in native SPI was selectively hydrolyzed by pepsin in the pH 1.5 to 2.5 range. On the other hand, the p-conglycinin fraction in native SPI was selectively hydrolyzed by papain at 70°C. This selective proteolysis would be significantly correlated with the denaturation of glycinin and β-conglycinin in SPI. A protocol for preparing hydrolysates selectively enriched with glycinin or β-conglycinin was proposed.

    Notes: Abstract The present study was carried out to investigate histologically and histometrically the effect of fluoride on root resorption induced by mechanical injuries of the periodontal soft tissues in rats. Resorption lacuna in the root surface of the molar in animals given both mechanical injuries and fluoride administration was significantly smaller in length and area than that in animals given only mechanical injuries. Moreover, resorption lacuna in the former animals contained fewer odontoclasts than that in the latter. The results of the present study might suggest that the administration of fluoride suppressed root resorption induced by mechanical injuries of the periodontal soft tissues.
