Profiles of plasma gonadotropin and 17 beta-estradiol in the common carp, Cyprinus carpio L., as related to spawning induced by hypophysation or LH-RH treatment.

Plasma gonadotropin (GTH) and 17 beta-estradiol (17 beta-E2) levels and oocyte stage have been studied in the common carp, Cypinus carpio L., after classical "hypophysation" (two intraperitoneal pituitary injections of 0.3 mg/kg and 2.7 mg/kg at a 12-hr interval) or LH-RH treatment (two intracardiac injections of 3 micrograms/kg at a 3-hr interval). After the first pituitary injection of LH-RH treatment, GTH increase was followed by a significant increase of 17 beta-E2 7 hrs after the injection. The higher GTH levels after the second pituitary injection did not increase that secretion. After classical "hypophysation", one-half of the females ovulated. There was no difference between spawning and non-spawning fishes in relation to hormonal parameters. LH-RH treatment only induced a shifting of the nucleus.

Electroencephalographic and clinical changes as correlated in geriatric patients treated three months with an ergot alkaloid preparation.

The results of a 3-month trial with an ergot alkaloid preparation (Hydergine) in 16 geriatric patients showed that, in accordance with a previously proposed working hypothesis, the improvement induced by the drug in electroencephalographic age-related changes was accompanied by clinical improvement in patients with similarly age-related mental deterioration.

[The response of the hypophysis to exogenous Gn-RH during the annual reproductive cycle of the carp Cyprinus carpio L].

The response of the hypophysis to injection of homologous hypothalamic extract and of LH-RH was studied during the reproductive cycle of the Carp Cyprinus carpio L. It is maximal during the summer months, during the reproductive period. It is nil or weak during winter, the period of sexual inactivity. It appears in April-May when gametogenesis is initiated and the water temperature increase.

Augmentation of facial defects using Mersilene mesh implants.

The use of Mersilene mesh in both office and hospital practice was surveyed. Seventy patients received a total of 83 implants, 66 (80%) of which were Mersilene mesh. Of these 83 implants, 76 (91%) were used in chin augmentation, preponderantly by the intraoral route. An infection rate of 9% (8) was encountered; 4 (5%) of these required removal. The ideal implant material has not yet been discovered, but hopefully, with continued research and with the sharing of ideas, a more suitable implant will be found.
