Clinical short term study of marginal integrity of resin restorations.

The marginal adaptation of 649 Durafill and Silux fillings in beveled and acid etched enamel cavities was assessed in a clinical study. The investigation included Class III with and without lingual extension, Class IV and Class V. The frequency of marginal discoloration and marginal gaps after 15 months was markedly reduced in all Classes when a low-viscous resin was used prior to application of the restorative.

A case of partial monosomy 21q22.2 associated with Rieger's syndrome.

A deleted chromosome 21 is reported in a mentally retarded girl with prominent occiput, high nasal bridge, downward slanting eyes, enophthalmus, atresia of the right lacrimal duct, displaced anal opening, and supernumerary ribs. Cytogenetic investigation of cultured lymphocytes and skin fibroblasts revealed a deletion of the long arm of chromosome 21 at sub-band q22.2 with satellites on both arms. Normal SOD-1 activity confirmed the breakpoint to be distal to band q22.1.

A familial reciprocal translocation t(3;7) (p21.1;p13) associated with the Greig polysyndactyly-craniofacial anomalies syndrome.

A translocation t(3;7) (p21.l;p13) segregating through four generations was found to be invariably associated with the Greig cephalopolysyndactyly syndrome (GS). High resolution chromosome analyses using G and R banding did not uncover any imbalance of the affected chromosomes, nor were the late replicating patterns changed. One girl with the GS died of medulloblastoma.

Effects of natural oestrogen therapy on blood pressure and renin-angiotensin system in normotensive and hypertensive menopausal women.

The blood pressure level and the renin-angiotensin system were investigated in 24 menopausal women (12 normotensive and 12 hypertensive) before, during and after six months of treatment with either oestradiol or trisekvens (sequential preparation containing oestradiol, oestriol and norethisterone acetate). In the normotensive women no significant alterations in systolic or diastolic blood pressure were found during treatment for six months. In the hypertensive women systolic blood pressure fell significantly during treatment with oestradiol as well as with trisekvens, while diastolic pressure did not change. All individual variations of blood pressure were small. The plasma concentrations of renin, angiotensin II and aldosterone remained unchanged during the treatments. A statistically significant increase in plasma renin substrate concentration was observed in all groups with the exception of the normotensive women treated with oestradiol. Menopausal symptoms in hypertensive women may safely be treated with natural oestrogens on the same indications as used for normotensive women.

Double-antibody solid-phase radioimmunoassay for blood bradykinin.

A solid phase radioimmunoassay for the determination of blood bradykinin has been developed. Highly specific antibodies against bradykinin were raised in rabbits after coupling the peptide to thyroglobulin. Iodination of [Tyr8]-bradykinin was carried out with a chloramine-T procedure resulting in a tracer with high specific activity. Bradykinin was isolated in the following way: blood was sampled directly into acetone, and lipids were removed by extraction with petroleum either (40-60 degrees C). The final purification was made on QAE-Sephadex A-25 at pH 7.4. The mean recovery of added [125I-Tyr8]-bradykinin was 28% with a sample volume of 6 ml whole blood. The sensitivity of the radioimmunoassay was 1.25 pg/tube or 3 pg/ml blood. The reproducibility of the method is satisfactory with a between-assay coefficient of variation below 16%. Levels found in venous blood were below 3 pg bradykinin/ml in normal persons.
