    Notes: After many years of unsuccessful conservative treatment 16 patients suffering from hemicrania are relieved of their pain or are improved by operative treatment. Hemicranial attacks or permanent hemicrania is found to be caused by upper cervical nerve root compression. Vascular compression of C2 (n = 9) or scar tissue surrounding C2 (n = 1) or C3 (n = 1) is the pathology identified in cases of cervicogenic headache or “cluster headache-like” headache. Compression attributable to tumor, prolapsed disc, or spondylotic changes is found to be a cause of permanent headache. Only in those patients with permanent headache are radiological or electrophysiological findings helpful for diagnosis. In patients with hemicranial attacks and compression of nerve root C2 (n = 10) or C3 (n = 1), only vasoactive tests (provoking or relieving pain) or local anaesthesia prove to be helpful in diagnosing and localizing the origin of pain. The operation involves freeing the nerve roots from vascular compression. In two patients the C2 ganglion is resected. Thirteen patients subsequently become pain free. In three patients, hemicrania improves. Four of the 16 patients experience a recurrence of pain after the decompressive operation. After additional thermorhizotomy two patients have no further complaints and one patient has improved. One patient can tolerate his pain with occasional analgesics. The problem of referred pain into the fronto-ocular region is discussed.

    Notes: Background: Helicobacter pylori infection of the antral mucosa is responsible for an increase in basal and stimulated serum gastrin. In the present study we have investigated whether gastritis induced by H. pylori is responsible for abnormalities in the processing of gastrin in dyspeptic patients.Methods: Basal serum gastrin was measured by radioimmunoassay before, 5 weeks, and 1 year after anti-H. pylori therapy in 73 H. pylori positive functional dyspeptic patients. Three region-specific antisera were used, specific for the biologically active carboxy-terminal part, the biologically inactive aminoterminal part of gastrin 1–17, and for the nonsulphated tyrosyl residue in gastrin 1–17.Results: Basal serum gastrin levels were markedly (P 〈 0.01) decreased 5 weeks and 1 year after successful eradication of H. pylori (n= 39) but not in the patients in whom treatment failed (n= 34). A decline of gastrin was observed for each of the three radioimmunoassays. Conclusion: The decrease of serum gastrin levels in all three radioimmunoassays after a successful eradication of H. pylori does not point to major changes in the processing of gastrin. These results suggest that G-cells in the antral mucosa are not functionally affected by the inflammation.

    Notes: The effects of oral indomethacin on intragastric pH and serum gastrin were investigated in rheumatoid arthritis patients. Nine patients (1 male, 8 female) without a history of peptic ulcer disease and 6 patients with a history of peptic ulcer disease (5 male, 1 female) were studied. To obviate Helicobacter pylori infection as a confounding factor, only patients with positive H. pylori serology were included. After a 5-day period of placebo treatment and after a 5-day period of indomethacin (50 mg t.d.s.; total dose 750 mg), 24-h intragastric pH and basal and meal-stimulated serum gastrin levels were measured in a double-blind placebo controlled cross-over study.There were no differences in the median 24-h pH values between placebo and indomethacin irrespective of peptic ulcer disease history. Indomethacin resulted in a higher basal and stimulated gastrin response than placebo in patients with a history of peptic ulcer disease. The basal and incremental responses were lower in patients with a history of peptic ulcer disease than in patients without a history of peptic ulcer disease, both during indomethacin and placebo. The same basal and stimulated incremental serum gastrin responses were found during placebo and indomethacin treatment in patients without a history of peptic ulcer disease. No correlation was established between median 2-h post-prandial intragastric pH and post-prandial incremental serum gastrin concentration. We conclude that indomethacin does not influence the intragastric pH of rheumatoid arthritis patients irrespective of history of peptic ulcer disease.

    Notes: Background:  Limited information is available about anxiety, depression and psychotropic medication use in patients referred for gastrointestinal endoscopy.Aim:  To determine anxiety and depression and its association with endoscopic findings in a representative sample of patients with persistent gastrointestinal symptoms prior to endoscopy.Methods:  Patients referred to the hospital for endoscopy between February 2002 and February 2004 were asked to score anxiety and depression on the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale 2 weeks prior to endoscopy. Information about endoscopic diagnoses was obtained from medical files.Results:  A total of 1298 subjects was studied (600 upper gastrointestinal endoscopies and 698 lower gastrointestinal endoscopies). Patients referred for upper gastrointestinal endoscopy used most psychotropic agents (24%; odds ratio = 3.1; 95% confidence interval = 2.3–4.2), especially patients with an organic abnormality when compared with patients without an organic abnormality (42% versus 8%; odds ratio = 8.6; 95% confidence interval = 5.4–14.0). Patients with colonic polyps were more anxious (odds ratio = 1.7; 95% confidence interval = 1.0–2.9) and depressed (odds ratio = 1.8; 95% confidence interval = 1.1–3.1) than other patients referred for lower gastrointestinal endoscopy.Conclusions:  There is no difference in anxiety nor depression between patients with and without organic abnormalities at endoscopy. Patients with colonic polyps are more anxious and depressed than other patients referred for lower gastrointestinal endoscopy. Psychotropic medication use is highest among patients with an organic abnormality in the proximal gastrointestinal tract.

    Notes: Background : There is much debate about the influence of pre-treatment with a proton pump inhibitor on Helicobacter pylori eradication. The few studies investigating the influence of pre-treatment on triple and quadruple therapies did not find differences in eradication rates. However, the high eradication rates make it difficult to study factors associated with therapy failure in small populations. In order to overcome this problem we performed a meta-analysis.Methods : The literature was searched in order to identify randomized clinical trials comparing modern triple/quadruple therapies for H. pylori eradication without pre-treatment with a proton pump inhibitor with exactly the same regimen with pre-treatment. The overall risk difference (with − without pre-treatment) was calculated by pooling the risk differences of the individual studies weighted by the inverse of their variances.Results : Nine studies, investigating a total of 773 patients, were identified. There was considerable variation regarding therapy regimen and duration. Pooled eradication rates were 81.3% (312 of 384) for patients with pre-treatment and 81.2% (316 of 389) for patients without pre-treatment. The (weighted) overall risk difference was 0.1% (95% CI: −5%; 5%).Conclusion : Pre-treatment with a proton pump inhibitor does not influence H. pylori eradication.

    Notes: Eighteen patients with duodenal, gastric or jejunal ulcers, resistant to at least 3 months treatment with histamine H2-receptor antagonists, singly or in combination with other anti-ulcer drugs, were treated with 40 mg omeprazole once daily for up to 8 weeks. All ulcers healed, the majority within two weeks. After ulcer healing patients were given maintenance therapy with high doses of cimetidine or ranitidine. Of 15 patients on maintenance therapy with H2-receptor antagonists, 12 (80%) developed a relapse after a period ranging from 3 to 52 weeks. Two patients were lost to follow-up. After re-healing on 40 mg omeprazole, two patients were given 20 mg omeprazole daily as maintenance therapy but relapses occurred again after 14 and 26 weeks respectively. After re-healing on 40 mg omeprazole, these two patients and one additional patient received maintenance therapy with 40 mg omeprazole daily. At present these three patients have been relapse-free for periods varying from 16 to 52 weeks. No side effects were registered during treatment with omeprazole. It is therefore concluded that omeprazole is highly effective in healing refractory peptic ulcers and that omeprazole maintenance therapy may be useful for prevention of relapse.

    Screening of Tomato Somaclones for Resistance to Bacterial Canker (Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis) (1991)

    Notes: To facilitate testing large numbers of tomato soma-clones for resistance to bacterial canker, a fast screening procedure was developed. Two inoculation methods were investigated, i.e. excision with an infected scalpel of I) one cotyledon of 2-week-old seedlings, and II) the first true leaf of 3-week-old seedlings, followed by applying a drop of inoculum on the wound. Inoculation by method II discriminated well between populations of partially resistant and susceptible tomato genotypes. A criterion for the selection of single, putatively resistant plants, based on rating scores of the severity of wilting symptoms, was proposed and tested with plants of a Lycopersicon peruvianum accession with a relatively high level of resistance to bacterial canker. Progenies of 279 somaclones, derived from tissue explants of the susceptible tomato cultivar ‘Moneymaker’, were evaluated for resistance. The presence of somaclonal variation for morphological characters in these populations was previously shown. However, no differences were detected between the somaclone population and controls in either mean susceptibility or distribution of plants over disease severity categories. Moreover, plants with major increases in resistance were not detected. These results suggest that the potential of somaclonal variation as a source of resistance to bacterial canker may be limited.

    Notes: ‘Then comes the end, when he delivers the kingdom to God the Father, after destroying every rule and every authority and power. For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. The last enemy to be destroyed is death. “For God has put all things in subjection under his feet.” But when it says, “All things are put in subjection under him”, it is plain that he is excepted who put all things under him. When all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to him who put all things under him, that God may be all in all.”

    Calculated fluid evolution path versus fluid inclusion data in the COHN system as exemplified by metamorphic rocks from Rogaland, south-west Norway (1993)

    Notes: Abstract Fluid evolution paths in the COHN system can be calculated for metamorphic rocks if there are relevant data regarding the mineral assemblages present, and regarding the oxidation and nitrodation states throughout the entire P-T loop. The compositions of fluid inclusions observed in granulitic rocks from Rogaland (south-west Norway) are compared with theoretical fluid compositions and molar volumes. The fluid parameters are calculated using a P-T path based on mineral assemblages, which are represented by rocks within the pigeonite-in isograd and by rocks near the orthopyroxene-in isograd surrounding an intrusive anorthosite massif. The oxygen and nitrogen fugacities are assumed to be buffered by the coexisting Fe-Ti oxides and Cr-carlsbergite, respectively. Many features of the natural fluid inclusions, including (1) the occurrence of CO2-N2-rich graphite-absent fluid inclusions near peak M2 metamorphic conditions (927° C and 400 MPa), (2) the non-existence of intermediate ternary CO2-CH4-N2 compositions and (3) the low-molar-volume CO2-rich fluid inclusions (36–42 cm3 mol−1), are reproduced in the calculated fluid system. The observed CO2-CH4-rich inclusions with minor N2 (5 mol%) should also include a large proportion of H2O according to the calculations. The absence of H2O from these natural high-molar-volume CO2-CH4-rich inclusions and the occurrence of natural CH4-N2-rich inclusions are both assumed to result from preferential leakage of H2O. This has been previously experimentally demonstrated for H2O-CO2-rich fluid inclusions, and has also been theoretically predicted. Fluid-deficient conditions may explain the relatively high molar volumes, but cannot be used to explain the occurrence of CH4-N2-rich inclusions and the absence of H2O.
