Circadian endocrine time structure in humans above 80 years of age.

The circadian rhythms in blood hormone concentrations of 17 pituitary, adrenal, pancreatic, testicular, and thyroid hormones were determined in 9 women and 5 men 81 to 91 years of age. Six samples over a 24-hr span were studied for each hormone. Even with the small sample available, 9 of the 17 hormones determined showed a statistically significant circadian rhythm as a group phenomenon (prolactin, estradiol, 17-hydroxyprogesterone, insulin, C-peptide, thyroid stimulating hormone, aldosterone, cortisol, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate). No rhythm detection by population mean cosinor analysis at the .05 level was obtained in this relatively small group of subjects for adrenocorticotropic hormone, follicle stimulating hormone, growth hormone, luteinizing hormone, triiodothyronine, thyroxine, progesterone (determined in women only) and testosterone (determined in men only).

[Oral labor induction with PGE2-tablets].

Orally administered PGE2 in tablet form was used to induce labour in a prospective trial on 57 patients. The prostaglandin was given in separate-hourly-dosis of 0,5 to 1,5 mg. The success rate of this oral induction was 93%. Frequency of acidotic and/or clinically depressed newborns and the incidence of active delivery reflected the unselected population. A precipitant labour was noted in one patient, while 23% showed symptoms of gastrointestinal side effects which were seen to be dosage dependent.
