Description / Table of Contents: In a retrospective analysis we evaluated 48 patients who had been arthroscopically treated for tendinitis calcarea. The calcific deposit was removed whenever possible and all patients were treated by arthroscopic subacromial decompression. In subjects who showed subacromial stenosis by X-ray or by intraoperative findings, an arthroscopic acromioplasty was performed. At follow-up all patients were evaluated according to the Constant score. Additionally all pre- and postoperative X-rays were reviewed. After surgery the Constant score significantly improved. In all cases where acromioplasty was performed, a flattening of the bony configuration was achieved. The X-ray analysis showed that no calcific deposit with blurred borders converted to sharp borders. There was also no deposit that converted from a transparent appearance to a dense structure. Patients with disappearance of the calcific deposit postoperatively had significantly better outcome than patients with no change in the X-ray. An additional acromioplasty did not improve the results. The aim of arthroscopic treatment of calcific tendinitis has to be the removal of the calcific deposit. Acromioplasty does not lead to further improvement of the result.

Notes: Klinische Relevanz: Ziel der arthroskopischen Therapie der Tendinitis calcarea muß die Entfernung des Kalkdepots sein. Eine Akromioplastik bringt keine Vorteile.

Notes: The present investigation was undertaken to examine possible noise-induced alterations in adrenal fasciculata cell (AFC) metabolism, and also to determine if the magnitude of these changes differs in male versus female rats. Wistar rats approximately 3 months old were exposed to intense noise for 60 min (100 dB, re 2 × 10-5 N(m2)-1, 350-20 000 Hz); control rats were house under identical conditions, at an ambient noise level of 40-60 dB. Adrenal fasciculata cells (AFC) from each animal were examined for noise-induced alterations in Feulgen-DNA reactivity (as an indicator of chromatin template activity) and Coomassie-total cell protein levels using scanning-integrating cytophotometry. The results provide evidence that intense noise elicited a marked AFC metabolic enhancement in both male and female rats; the degree of this enhancement was more pronounced in males. This disparity may be due to pre-existing differences in male versus female AFC enzymatic capability and subsequent responsiveness to noise-induced activation.
