    Notizen: Abstract Patients with glycogen storage disease type Ib (GSD Ib) suffer from recurrent bacterial infections due to neutropenia and neutrophil dysfunction. To improve the quality of life in a 9-year-old boy with GSD Ib, we subeutaneously administered recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). Daily injections of 100 μg/m2 of G-CSF significantly increased absolute neutrophil counts and augmented neutrophil mobility. The patient was then treated with 70 and 100 μg/m2 of G-CSF daily and twice-weekly. The treatment maintained absolute neutrophil counts at significantly higher levels than those without treatment for 22 months and markedly decreased the frequency of infections and the necessity for hospitalisation. No adverse effects were observed during treatment. These findings indicate that daily and twice-weekly treatment with G-CSF of long duration are safe and effective for patients with GSD Ib. G-CSF may be a useful therapeutic agent in patients with neutrophilic impairment as a consequence of a metabolic disorder.

    Notizen: Abstract Transesophageal M-mode echocardiography was applied for the evaluation of left ventricular performance in a case of severe tetanus with labile hypertension due to sympathetic nervous ‘torm’. When systemic blood pressure was elevated, increases in pulmonary arterial pressure, cardiac output, left ventricular enddiastolic diameter, fractional shortening and mean velocity of circumferential fiber shortening were noted. No changes were found in total peripheral vascular resistance or left ventricular endsystolic diameter. Positive pressure ventilation, rendered standard transthoracic echocardiography ineffective.
