Clearance rate of intravenously administered lipid in postoperative patients.

Elimination rate (K) of intravenously given triglyceride was studied in seventeen patients who underwent elective abdominal operations, and levels of adrenaline, noradrenaline, insulin and blood sugar were simultaneously measured, as stress-indices. All these indices, except for the insulin/blood sugar ratio, increased post-operatively. The postoperative K value increased significantly in comparison with the preoperative value. There was no significant correlation between K value and any of the stress-indices. These results suggest that the initial catabolism of the lipid emulsion triglyceride is enhanced by surgical stress.

Choledochocele: report of a case and review of the literatures.

A case of choledochocele seen in a 68-year-old male was reported. Analysis of fourteen cases reported under a variety of designations featuring cystic dilatation of the distal common bile duct protruding into the duodenal lumen and the case presented here disclosed that these cases could be classified into two types of pathology; both of the bile duct and the pancreatic duct opened into the cyst of the ampulla in 6 cases, whereas the bile duct and the pancreatic duct joined at the papilla of Vater and distal end of the bile duct formed a cystic dilatation protruding into the duodenal lumen in the remaining 9 cases.

[The effect of intravenous prostaglandin F 2 alpha on the motility of the gastrointestinal tracts after major abdominal surgery (author's transl)].

TThe effect of prostaglandin F 2 alpha was studied clinically and electromyographically on the motility of the gastric antrum, duodenum, jejunum, ileum and transverse colon in 20 patients by giving 2 hours intravenous drip infusion at 0.3 approximately 0.5 microgram/kg/min for 2 hours after major abdominal surgery. Folling results were obtained. 1. The motility of stomach and colon was least active than any other site of alimentary tract during 48 hours after surgery. This seems to be one of the most important causes of so called postoperative ileus. 2. Recovery from reflex inhibition of motility of the alimentary tract after surgery was seen in duodenum at first, and then in jejunum and ileum in order. It was proved that intravenous drip infusion of PGF 2 alpha at 0.3 approximately 0.5 microgram/kg/min for 2 hours had produced the increase of electrical activity in any site of gastrointestinal tract and subsequently brought about increasing of propulsive movement. The effect of PGF 2 alpha is proportional to its concentration. 4. tit was concluded that PGF 2 alpha could be administered most effectively by intravvenous drip infusion at 0.5 microgram/kg/min 3 times daily for 3 days after surgery for the satisfactory recovery from the postoperative ileus, and no appreciable side effect was observed.

Fluroescence properties of chlorophyll a and b monomolecular films at the air-water interface.

The fluorescence properties of chlorophyll a and b monomolecular films at the air-water interface were measured by a high sensitivity fluorophotometer using the photon-counting method. The fluorescence intensity of chlorophyll molecules in monomolecular films in the absence of any diluents did not decrease simply with the mean distance of chlorphyll molecules. Over the range of the mean distances from 27 to 21 A, three fluorescence components (peaks at 685, 695 and 715 nm) of chlorophyll a were observed. In the case of chlorophyll beta, two fluorescence components (peaks at 667 and 685 nm) were observed over the range of the mean distances from 34 to 24 A. When the mean distance was 18 A, the short wavelength component of chlorophyll beta disappeared, and only the long avelength component was observed.

Effect of serum zinc level on amount of collagen-hydroxyproline in the healing gut during total parenteral nutrition: an experimental study.

Changes of serum zinc level in dogs receiving either a zinc-free solution or a zinc-supplement solution during total parenteral nutrition (TPN) and the influence of variety of serum-zinc level on serum albumin and collagen-hydroxyproline (C-Hyp) in the incised intestine were investigated. The serum zinc level of zinc-free dogs that was 126.0 +/- 34.3 micrograms per deciliter at the initiation of TPN decreased significantly to 80.0 +/- 15.0 micrograms per deciliter during the one week of TPN, whereas that of zinc-supplement dogs did not decrease during the same period of TPN. Lowering of the serum albumin value was more evident in zinc-free dogs than in zinc-supplement dogs. The amount of C-Hyp in the incised area of the intestine of zinc-free dogs was 2.63 +/- 0.66 micrograms per milligram and that of zinc-supplement dogs was 4.26 +/- 1.04 micrograms per milligram and this difference was significant. It was found that serum zinc level during TPN sharply reflects a supplement of zinc, and C-Hyp in the incised gut and serum albumin of zinc-free dogs are lower than those of zinc-supplement dogs.
