The secretory immune system.
Several features distinguish mucosal from systemic immunity; depending on the anatomical and functional characteristics of the organs involved. Secretory IgA immunoglobulins are the main effectors of the mucosal immune system and their protective aspects are well documented. Serum IgA have received less attention but are equally important; since they control and remove in a non-phlogistic way antigens crossing the mucosal barriers.

Cachectin/tumour necrosis factor-alpha in the circulation of patients with rheumatic disease.
By means of a sensitive double-antibody radioimmunoassay; cachectin/tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) was measured in sera from 51 patients with rheumatic disease. Elevated levels of circulating cachectin/TNF were observed in 46% of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA; p less than 0.001 versus blood donors) and in 29% of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE; p less than 0.05 versus blood donors). Marked elevation of cachectin/TNF occurred in both RA and SLE patients in connection with severe

The results show that cachectin/TNF is present in the circulation of certain patients with rheumatic disease; and that although the median cachectin TNF level in SLE patients is lower than that in RA patients; the cachectin/TNF response in SLE patients to severe infections is similar to that in RA patients.

Anti-inflammatory activity of Teucrium polium.
Teucrium polium is widely used by the folk-medicine practitioners in Saudi Arabia for the treatment of inflammations; rheumatism; diabetes and ulcers. Scientific reports are lacking to confirm these activities. The present study reports the effect of ethanolic extract of T. polium on carrageenan-induced acute inflammation; cotton-pellet granuloma and some of the biochemical parameters. The ethanolic extract of Teucrium polium at a dose of 500 mg/kg body weight produced significant inhibition of carrageenan-

Head injury. Variability of course and presence of confounding factors.
Review of a large data base on 76 patients who had suffered head injuries and whose metabolic changes were being studied demonstrated the variability of their neurological courses and the importance of considering confounding factors in the analysis of such a group. It was apparent that many such patients continue to change neurologically and functionally for long periods of time; and that their ultimate outcome cannot be determined for at least 1 year. The study demonstrates the inherent complexity of a gr

Multifocal fractures of the femur.
Multifocal fractures of the femur in modern traumatology are becoming more and more frequent and often pose difficult problems of treatment. In view of the sparse contributions on this subject in the literature; we analysed our series of 33 cases with a view to formulating our conclusions as to the best type of treatment. Because of the varied associations of different types of fracture in a single skeletal segment; there is no single method of synthesis applicable to all cases. The various means of synthes

Arthroscopic synovectomy in the treatment of haemophilic arthropathy: preliminary results in eight patients.
Synovectomy is a procedure which is widely used in the surgical treatment of haemophilic arthropathy: the short and long-term results have in fact sufficiently shown its effectiveness in the reduction of the number of cases of haemarthrosis. This operation; however; has the disadvantage of a reduction in joint mobility which may vary from 25% to 77%; depending on the various case series reported (Post et al.; 1986; Clark; 1978; McCollough et al.; 1979; Montane et al.; 1986).

Corrective femoral osteotomy and telescopic nailing in osteogenesis imperfecta.
Six cases of osteogenesis imperfecta with femoral deformity treated by Bailey telescopic nailing are discussed. In 4 cases the operation was bilateral. The long-term results show that this nail lengthens without compromising longitudinal growth of the bone; while providing protection from fracture and recurrence of the deformity. Thinning of the diaphyseal cortex was a significant complication in 3 femurs out of 10. Although it is more difficult to apply; the telescopic nail is preferable to traditional nai

Biological aspects of repair osteogenesis in corticospongy homologous grafts.
An experimental study was carried out aimed at studying the short-term; mid-term and long-term biological features of the incorporation of homologous bone grafts. Homologous cortical and corticospongy grafts of the proximal third of the tibia were implanted in 60 adult New Zealand rabbits; under general anaesthesia. The animals were sacrificed after predetermined periods of time; and the tibia removed for radiographic and histological examination. An analysis of the different phases of the fusion process al

The causes of the loosening of a hip prosthesis may be inflammatory; mechanical; immunitary or due to detritus. A bacteriological and histological study; in cases where further surgery was needed; may clearly contribute to the aetiopathogenesis of failure. Loose hip prostheses removed at operation were studied from a bacteriological and; in particular; histological point of view.

The use of CT scan in evaluating Volkmann's syndrome in the limbs.
Between January 1980 and October 1986 26 cases of Volkmann's syndrome were submitted to preoperative CT scan. Thirteen were localised in the upper limb; 11 in the lower limb; and 2 were cases of pseudo-Volkmann's disease. CT scan allowed us to confirm the densitometric features and distribution of muscle infarction in the various muscle planes. Thus; two groups were distinguished; each with different densitometric features: a first group with diffuse hypodensity of the muscular sheaths with unclear borders;

CT scan provides a detailed preoperative topographical and morphological evaluation of the infarction area; and therefore a treatment plan based on a more accurate knowledge of the anatomical and pathological lesions.

Allosteric transition in hemoglobin (alpha 2A beta 2I) from the rhynchocephalian reptile relict Sphenodon punctatus.
The major hemoglobin component Hb A of the tuatara; Sphenodon punctatus; a relict of the rhynochocephalian reptiles that lived 200 million years ago; was investigated in the light of the apparent contradiction inherent in an effect of organic phosphate cofactors on the oxygen affinity of hemoglobins exhibiting hyperbolic oxygen equilibrium curves. The heterotropic allosteric effect of ATP; the major erythrocytic cofactor in the tuatara; is shown to be correlated with distinct homotropic interactions (Hill's

An abnormal hemoglobin found in an erythremic blood donor was separable only by isoelectrofocusing; where it was located at the cathodic edge of Hb A. Cation exchange high performance liquid chromatography of a tryptic digest from the total alpha chain revealed splitting of the alpha T-6 peak; although our routine procedures failed to uncover the abnormality. This enabled the chemical characterization and quantitation of the abnormal hemoglobin as alpha 41(C6)Thr----Ser comprising about 30% of the total hem

The prevalence of avascular necrosis in sickle cell anemia: correlation with alpha-thalassemia.
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of alpha-thalassemia on the prevalence of avascular necrosis in 52 adult patients with sickle cell anemia. alpha-Globin genotypes were determined by restriction endonuclease mapping of genomic DNA extracted from peripheral blood leukocytes. Radiographs of humeral and femoral heads were interpreted by two radiologists who were not aware of the clinical picture and the genotype of the patients in the study. We present data showing that there is a

Hb Portland-II (zeta 2 beta 2) and Hb Bart's (gamma 4) are rather unstable when a red cell lysate is stored at 4 degrees C; this is in contrast to Hb Portland-I (zeta 2 gamma 2) which appears to be stable. Samples can be stored as washed red cells or red cell lysates at -70 degrees C.

Shape of the craniofacial complex in 45,X females: cephalometric study.
The shape of the craniofacial complex was analysed cephalometrically in sixty-four adult 45;X females (Turner syndrome) using lateral skull radiographs; and the subjects were compared with first-degree female relatives and control females. The results showed that 45;X females have marked changes in relatively few craniofacial areas compared to the controls. Most of the changes are located in the cranial base; so that the face is retrognathic. The mandible is short; whereas the maxilla is of normal length. T

Primary palatogenesis involves an intricate array of events. Cell migration; proliferation; differentiation; programmed death; and fusion occur. Prior to fusion; the morphology of the epithelium undergoes marked changes. Epithelial projections form and extend across the fusion site attaching by filopodia to the opposite prominence. By appearance; the epithelium plays a critical role in facial development. In order to monitor epithelial activities; a study was done to isolate and characterize epithelial cell

Epithelial bridging of the primary palate: II. In vitro model mimics in vivo behavior.
in vitro model was established [Gibson et al.: J Craniofac Genet Dev Biol; 1989]; where epithelial cells in culture were shown to produce many of the morphologic characteristics observed in vivo. In the present study; an in vitro model is discussed which reproduces the epithelial projections observed in vivo. Epithelial cells; previously characterized; were obtained from the primary palate of 13-day-old rat embryos and sub-cultured as explants. Comparisons were made with the epithelial bridging observed in

Instead; they appeared as line connections suspended by the medium. With time; the number of projections increased and epithelial cells could be seen along the projections forming an epithelial bridge. This study established a model of epithelial bridging in vitro for analysis of a process which has been shown to be an integral part of primary palate fusion.

Effects of cyclophosphamide on the secondary palate development in golden Syrian hamster: teratology, morphology, and morphometry.
Cyclophosphamide (CP); when injected in hamster mother between days 9 and 11 of pregnancy; was teratogenic in fetuses. On the basis of a morphological study it was deduced that CP delayed the reorientation of hamster palatal shelves by 16-20 h. In a subsequent experiment; in both control and CP-treated palatal shelves; the numbers of epithelial and mesenchymal cells were counted and cross-sectional area was measured. DNA synthesis; measured by 3H-thymidine incorporation; was used as an index of growth by ce

The results showed that during the vertical development of palatal shelves; the mesenchymal cells reached their peak number during the initial 24 hours; i.e.; at the end of the second peak in DNA synthesis; and remained unchanged thereafter throughout reorientation. The shelf area also showed rapid increase during the initial 24 h followed by a spurt 2 h prior to reorientation.

delayed the reorientation of the vertical shelves until such time that the number of healthy mesenchymal cells and shelf area were restored to the control values. The data lend further support to the hypothesis that the acquisition of a specific number of cells and shelf volume; during vertical palatal development; may be essential for palatal shelf reorientation.

Employment chances of recently visually impaired, young or middle-aged adults in the Swedish labour market.
The study (n = 261) focused on employment chances of Swedish visually impaired persons aged 25-45 years at the onset of their visual impairment; and who were employed at that time. It concerned persons who became visually impaired after 1974; the year when the Act on Security of Employment was passed. Although the Act has had an impact on employment opportunities; it is; however; no guarantee per se. Factors in the work environment accounted for improved chances of keeping the pre-disability employment. Ind
