[Urodynamic miction studies--physiological aspects].

In this work, definition and interpretation of different functional parameters, which were obtained through urodynamic investigations, are given. Normal patterns in child age are presented. They were the results of personal studies in patients with normal urinary tract. The pressure curve must be seen as an entity. The so-called after contraction is no detrusor contraction. But possibly it is the result of a determined lapse of contracting and relaxing occurrences in the different parts of the bladder and its outlet at the end of micturition.

[Method of measuring pressure using perfusion manometry].

Based on the principle of perfusion manometry, a device for the assessment of intraluminal pressures in urethra and anal canal is presented. The technical parameters are reported. The method may be utilized for clinical diagnosis in cases of disturbed micturition and defecation in children as well as for the function of esophagus.

Urethral pressure profile measurements in children.

After a brief representation of the physiological processes during micturition in the region of the bladder-urethra junction, the pathological changes in neurogenic micturition dysfunctions leading to an increase of the infravesical flow resistance are considered. A suitable procedure for determining exactly the dysfunction is the registration of a urethral pressure profile. The construction is based on pressure measurement by means of a catheter with a lateral eye, with constant slow perfusion. Measuring errors had to be determined in preliminary trials. Examples of investigations in children with various subvesical urinary dysfunctions demonstrates different points concerning this method.

[Transplantation of isolated islets of Langerhans into the liver of diabetic dogs (author's transl)].

Isolated islets of Langerhans were transplanted through the portal vein in the liver of 8 diabetic dogs; In 4 dogs a homologous transplantation was performed and another group of four dogs received isolated islets from their sisters or brothers. In both groups, there was an immediate effect on the blood glucose level. After pancreatectomy and injection of Alloxan the blood glucose rose to between 350 and 420 mg per 100 ml and after islet implantation the blood glucose decreased between 80 to 160 mg per 100 ml. The iv GTT'S were after islet implantation clear better than in the diabetic control animals. These results could maintained in the recipients with homologues islets over a period of 6 to 8 weeks and in the other group of dogs over a period of 6 to 12 months. We were able to show, that the islet implantation in the liver of diabetic dogs did not disturb the microscopic architecture of the liver. No signs of portal hypertension, hepatic congestion and embolism were found.

Transplantation of isologous islets of Langerhans in diabetic rats.

Isologous isolated islets of Langerhans were transplanted into the peritoneum and, via the portal vein, into the liver of diabetic rats. In both groups almost normal blood glucose and serum insulin levels were achieved for a period of three months. Glucose tolerance tests were markedly improved. Morphological examination of the transplanted islets and immunohistochemical tests for insulin and glucagon showed the liver to be a more suitable site for islet grafting than the peritoneum.
