    Notes: Abstract Low antithrombin III (AT III) levels in shock are usually ascribed to disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). However, decreased activities of clotting factors and their inhibitors could reflect a generalised fall in plasma proteins rather than DIC. AT III and albumin were compared in 48 asphyxiated and non-asphyxiated newborn rabbits (pH6.70–7.30). Both AT III and albumin were markedly decreased in the sickest animals and there was a direct linear relationship between the two proteins (P〈0.001). Similar results were obtained in ten newborn infants suffering from shock and haemorrhagic diathesis. In all cases AT III and albumin were decreased below the normal range and significantly correlated (P〈0.01). Our findings suggest that AT III is not a useful diagnostic marker of DIC. Further, a similar fall of clottable and non-clottable proteins in shock questions the general assumption that the ensuing coagulopathy is due to intravascular coagulation.

    Notes: Abstract Between April 1988 and July 1995, 11 children with a lymphangioma were treated with intralesional OK-432 injection. In 7 patients it was the primary therapy and total shrinkage of the lesion was obtained in 5 of them. Two patients did not respond and the children underwent surgery. Following incomplete surgical removal or recurrence of the lymphangioma, intralesional OK-432 injection was used as secondary therapy in 4 patients. Total regression was observed in 2 cases and marked regression in the 2 others. No serious side-effects except fever lasting for 2–3 days and slight tenderness with swelling of the lymphangioma for 3–4 days after the injection was noted. Local inflammatory reaction did not cause any damage to the overlying skin and did not lead to scar formation. Depending on the size, location, and anatomical relationship to the airway, intralesional injections of the lymphangiomas were performed under general anaesthesia and the children were observed for 24 h. There was no recurrence after follow up periods ranging from 2 months to 7 years. Conclusion Intralesional injection of OK-432 represents an alternative, safe and effective treatment for lymphangiomas. It can be used as the primary therapy, after partial surgical excision, or in recurrent lymphangiomas.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Im Verlauf einer schweren Gerinnungsstörung bei einem Säugling mit Sepsis und Schock wurden vor und während der Substitutionsbehandlung mit humanem Antithrombin wiederholt die Antithrombin-III Spiegel gemessen. Diese Daten wurden mit Hilfe einer Biexponentialfunktion mathematisch ausgewertet. Die Plasma-Eliminations-Halbwertszeit des Antithrombins betrug 7,5 bzw. 10,5 Stunden. Verglichen mit bekannten Plasma-Halbwertszeiten von radioaktiv markiertem Antithrombin III bei Erwachsenen war die Elimination um den Faktor 5–10 beschleunigt. Die deutlich erniedrigten Antithrombin III Spiegel in diesem Fall konnten also mindestens teilweise auf einen beschleunigten Umsatz des Antithrombins zurückgeführt werden. Die Bestimmung der Plasma-Eliminations-Halbwertszeit von Antithrombin III ist hilfreich bei der Abgenzung einer verminderten Produktion von einem gesteigerten Umsatz im Verlauf einer Koagulopathie. Die Diagnose einer disseminierten intravasalen Gerinnung kann so etwas sicherer gestellt werden. Die Vorteile der Antithrombin- Substitutionstherapie werden bei diesem Vorgehen genützt, die Nachteile radioaktiv markierter Proteine vermieden.
    Notes: Summary During the course of severe coagulopathy in an infant suffering from septicaemia and shock, antithrombin III levels were determined repeatedly before and during substitution therapy with human antithrombin. By mathematical analysis of these data, using a biexponential function, the plasma elimination half-life of the antithrombin III was estimated to be 7.5–10.5 h. Compared with known plasma half-lives of radioactively labelled antithrombin III in adults the increase was five-to ten-fold. This indicates that the significantly decreased levels of antithrombin III in this case of coagulopathy were at least partly due to an accelerated consumption of antithrombin III. The estimation of the plasma elimination half-life of antithrombin III helps to differentiate decreased production from increased consumption in cases of severe coagulopathy. Thus, a more precise diagnosis of disseminated intravascular coagulation can be made whilst taking advantage of substitution therapy and avoiding the hazards of radioactive tracer proteins.

    Notes: Abstract The torsional dynamics of the 9-(N-carbazolyl)-anthracene (C9A) molecule is investigated by means of time-independent (1) and time-dependent (2) quantum-mechanical simulations in a diabatic representation. The study includes effects of surface crossing of the brightS 1 state with a dark state. (1) The intensity pattern of theS 0 →S 1 fluorescence excitation spectrum is used to fit an effective one-dimensional Hamiltonian with a single-minimum potential for the dark state together with diabatic couplings to the double well potential of the bright state. (2) Based on this Hamiltonian, first predictions for a pump-probe scheme are made. In the pump process the molecules are excited to theS 1 state followed by competing torsions in the bright state and diabatic curve crossings to the dark state, depending on the pump frequency. Assuming the probe process to be an ionization from the bright state, the interfering effects of the dark state on the dynamics in the bright state can be monitored in a directly time-dependent way on a fs-ps time scale.
