Alterations of brain and intestine serotonin levels in hamsters pretreated with dietary aflatoxin.

Male Syrian hamsters were fed 30.3 ppm mixed aflatoxins (AFT) for a 45-day period followed by a 123-day recovery period. Tests made at the end of the recovery period indicated a reduction in whole brain and duodenal serotonin and a slight but not statistically significant elevation in brain 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid. There was a high incidence of liver cell hyperplasia in the aflatoxin fed animals. Following toxin withdrawal, the experimental animals showed significant gains in body weight but they never attained a body weight equal to the controls. Aflatoxin apparently interferes with serotonin production and the return to normal body weight even after withdrawal of the animal from the contaminated diet.

Temporary transvenous pacemakers in the community hospital.

The use of temporary transvenous pacemakers has become firmly established. While the technique of temporary pacing is by no means the answer to all problems associated with myocardial infarction, it has clearly been lifesaving for certain patients treated in the community hospital. Temporary pacing is a simple and safe procedure with relatively few complications. It can be done in the community hospital by the faimly physician who has an interest in cardiology.
