    Notes: Objective— To observe if a combination of a depot GnRH agonist and cyclical hormone replacement therapy decreases menstrual b od loss.Design— open, observational study comparing the objective assessment of menstrual blood loss before, during and after 3 months treatment.Subjects— 20 women with a subjective complaint of heavy menstrual loss in whom no cause could be discovered.Interventions— Each woman received 3 months of depot goserelin (Zoladex) combined with cyclical hormone replacement therapy (Cyclo-Progynova, 1 mg). Menstrual loss and symptoms were assessed before, throughout and after the study.Main outcome measures— Changes in objective and subjective assessments of menstrual blood loss and the acceptability of the treatment.Results— The median pretreatment menstrual loss was 68 ml (range 23–397). Only 8 (40%) of the patients had a loss exceeding 80 ml per period. The median blood loss was 30 ml, 16 ml, and 17 ml in the three treatment cycles (P 〈 0.001 Wilcoxon rank sum for the third cycle). There was a significant decrease in the median length of menstruation (P 〈 0.001) and the number of towels or tampons (P 〈 0.01) used per period in the third treatment cycle. There was a significant decrease (P 〈 0.005) in the number of women complaining of dysmenorrhoea, premenstrual symptoms, flooding and the passage of clots. Seventeen patients experienced hot flushes. Eighteen of the 20 patients were completely satisfied with the treatment and would have been happy to continue with it for longer than 12 months.Conclusions— The combination of a depot gonadotrophin releasing hormone agonist and cyclical hormone replacement therapy is a successful and acceptable treatment of dysfunctional uterine bleeding.

    Notes: Genetic control of PQ prolongation of the electrocardiogram (ECG) in the mouse, immunized with killed group A streptococci, was studied by using various congenic mice. Mice of H-2a, H-2k and H-2f haplotypes showed high frequencies of PQ prolongation, while haplotypes of H-2b, H-2d and H-2s showed low frequencies of PQ prolongation. Studies using various recombinant mice revealed that at least one immune-associated (Ir) gene mapped in the left side of the I-B subregion. High responsiveness of F1 hybrids of H-2b and H-2d, as well as B1O.A(5R) and B10.A(3R), suggests the existence of a complementing gene. In addition, the differences between C3H and CKB, as well as differences between C3H.SW and CWB, indicate that another Ir gene maps in the immunoglobulin heavy chain (Igh) coding loci. Repeated injections of anti-I-J or anti-I-A antisera also modified this PQ prolongation. These results suggested that both the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and immunoglobulin (Igh) loci seem to be playing important roles in the pathogenesis of PQ prolongation.

    Notes: Gold powder was mixed with YBa2Cu3O7−x superconductors for the purpose of increasing the critical current density (Jc). The critical transition temperature at zero resistance (Tzeroc) gradually decreased by the Au addition. However, the depression of Tzeroc was as low as 2 K for the YBa2Cu3O7−x -Au composite with Au mixing up to 40 wt.%. A maximum Jc of 307 A/cm2 was obtained for the Au 5-wt. % mixed composite. The Jc was about four times as high as that for YBa2Cu3O7−x without Au mixing. In addition to the Jc enhancement, the weak-link problem was appreciably improved by the Au addition.

    Notes: DNA vaccination has been shown to induce immunity against several different pathogens including HIV-1. The authors demonstrate here that administration of DNA vaccines via the intranasal route is sufficient to induce immune responses both at distal mucosal sites and systemically. Since transmission of HIV-1 occurs largely across mucosal surfaces, the intranasal route provides a further means of application for DNA immunization.

    Notes: We re-evaluated several antibiotics including newer ones, for their in vitro killing activity, as well as their inhibitory activity, against clinical isolates of periodontopathic bacteria. Tetracyclines were active against Porphyromonas gingivalis, and were highly active against Prevotella intermedia, but demonstrated only a low killing activity against Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans. Rokitamycin. a new macrolide, and clindamycin were highly active against P. gingivalis and P. intermedia, but showed very weak killing activity against A. actinomycetemcomitans. Quinolones demonstrated excellent bactericidal activity against A. actinomycetemcomitans, and good inhibitory and bactericidal activity against P. gingivalis and P. intermedia. Metronidazole had an activity almost equivalent to quinolones against P. gingivalis and P. intermedia; but it was the least active against A. actinomycetemcomitans.

    Notes: This study was undertaken to determine the immunodominant antigens from Porphyromonas gingivalis which reacted with sera from patients of pubertal and adult gingivitis. The patients with cultivable P. gingivalis and the patients without cultivable P. gingivalis were compared by immunoblots. Fifty subjects participated in this study: 20 with gingivitis, 20 periodontally healthy, and 10 with adult periodontitis. The groups with gingivitis and healthy periodontium each contained 10 pubescent subjects and 10 adult subjects. P. gingivalis was isolated from 9 of 20 patients with gingivitis and from all of 10 with periodontitis by culture study. Approximate molecular weight 43 KDa fimbriae antigen, 57, 53, 46, 28 KDa antigens from outer membrane, and 57, 44, 40, 18.5 KDa antigens from sonicated extracts of P. gingivalis reacted significantly more frequently with sera from the P. gingivalis culture-positive gingivitis patients than with sera from the culture-negative patients by Fisher's exact test. A molecular weight 75, 31 KDa antigen from outer membrane and a 46 KDa antigen from sonicated extract were immunodominant in sera from adult patients with periodontitis. These findings indicate that the specific antigens which reacted with sera from P. gingivalis culture-positive patients are markers of infection with P. gingivalis. Additionally, reactivity to antigens were slightly different between sera from patients with gingivitis and those from patients with periodontitis.

    Notes: We have initiated studies to determine whether the antibody and T-lymphocyte proliferative responses to lysozyme and its antigenic sites is genetically controlled in mice. Mice of the H-2f, H-2k and H-2p were high responders, while haplotypes H-2b, H-2d, H-2r and H-2s were low responders. Studies with recombinants indicated that the immune response is controlled by two H-2I region loci, one being in the I-A subregion and the other may be in the I-C subregions.

    Notes: Localization of Porphyromonas gingivalis and Treponema denticola in different areas of subgingival plaque from advanced adult periodontitis patients was studied immunohistochemically using sensitive immunogold-silver staining and immunoelectron microscopy. Fourteen periodontally diseased teeth were extracted without damaging the subgingival plaque, fixed, and embedded. The subgingival plaque samples were sectioned according to four different pocket depths (0–2 mm, 2–4 mm, 4–6 mm and ≤6 mm). Serial thin sections were stained using specific antisera to P. gingivalis or T. denticola and then with secondary antibody labelled with colloidal-gold. Cells of both P. gingivalis and T. denticola were predominantly found in subgingival plaque located at depths of more than 4 mm in periodontal pockets. T. denticola cells were found in the surface layers of subgingival plaque, and P. gingivalis were predominant beneath them. However, in the deeper subgingival plaque, the coexistence of P. gingivalis and T. denticola was observed. The present findings suggest that P. gingivalis and T. denticola play important roles in the pathogenicity of periodontal disease and provide the useful information for elucidating the pattern of colonization of microorganisms in the periodontal pocket.
