[Evaluation of the influence of extrapancreatic factors (undernutrition, cirrhosis) on utilization of amino acids by the pancreas after its stimulation with secretin and cerulein].

We studied the utilization of amino acids by the pancreas after its hormonal stimulation in diseases in which disturbances occur of amino acid and protein metabolism. After 45 minutes of intravenous infusion of secretin (1 CU/kg) and cerulein (75 ng/kg) we found a significantly lower (p 0.05) decrease of amino acid concentration than in healthy individuals, both in chronic pancreatitis and in undernutrition and post-inflammatory cirrhosis with decompensation of liver function. Greatest disturbances in amino acid utilization by the pancreas were found in the case of valine, leucine and isoleucine. The results of studies show certain limitations in the use of this method for the assessment of the exocrine function of the pancreas.

Pulmonary arteries dimensions and their dependences on the age, the height and body weight.

The studies were carried out on 100 right and 100 left lungs taken from human corpses of both sexes whose age varied from 1 month to 80 years. The material was divided into 3 age groups. The pulmonary arteries were injected 65% duracryl and then digested in sulfuric acid. The specimens obtained were examined to measurement the length and the diameter of the interlobar portion of the pulmonary arteries and their correlation indexes to the age, the length and the body weight. It was certain, that the pulmonary arteries dimensions still grows during man's extrafetal life; the diameter of the right pulmonary artery is usual greater than the left artery. The length of the interlobar portion of the right pulmonary artery varied in both sexes from 5 to 43 mm, and from 6 to 43 mm on the left pulmonary artery. The diameter of the some part of pulmonary arteries varied from 3 to 21 mm on the right side, and from 4.5 to 20 mm on the left side.

Loperamide (imodium)--clinical trial.

1. Imodium (loperamide) produced by Chemical Works of Gedeon Richter, Budapest, is a useful preparation for the symptomatic treatment of both acute and chronic diarrhoea of various etiologies. 2. In chronic diarrhoea cases the best results were obtained in the treatment of functional disorders of the guts. 3. Side effects occurred only in few patients and with low intensity, the treatment had to be interrupted in none of the cases.

[Chronic pancreatitis in the Bródno district of Warsaw].

A retrospective epidemiological-clinical analysis of patients with chronic pancreatitis living in the Bródno District of Warsaw is reported. It was found that the approximated coefficients of morbidity and incidence per 100 thousand of the population in 1987 were 17.0 and 5.0 respectively, and they were similar to those reported from Rochester (USA) and Copenhagen (Denmark). However, the incidence has risen from 2 in 1982 to 5 in 1987 per 100 thousand, which might be connected with increasing alcohol consumption by the population or increased detectability of chronic pancreatitis in this city district.

[Topometry of the bronchial tree in Ceropithecus aethiops with special regard to presence of precordial lobes].

The trachea and bronchus were filled with duracryl solution and on the basis of casts got in this way the length and the diameter of individual lobes of the bronchial tree of 14 male and 16 female monkey have been examined. It was ascertained that almost all measurements were greater in the individuals of female sex. In both individuals among segmental basilar bronchus the greatest diameter had medial and anterior bronchus, both in the right and left lung.

[The pulmonary artery size variability during various stages of post-fetal life in man].

Fresh lungs (45 right and 40 left) from dead bodies of 50 (30 male and 20 female) people from 1 to 80 years were examined. The pulmonary arteries were injected for 65% duracryl solution (Spofa-Dental firm) and after maceration the preparations were measured. Pulmonary arteries indices were also calculated. Pulmonary arteries diameter in male measured from 9.0 to 24 mm, average 17.0 mm, in female--from 7.4 to 28 mm, average 18.7 mm. The difference between the right and left pulmonary artery size was statistically significant, both in male and female persons. The correlation indices between size of male right pulmonary artery and age, length and body weight amounted to 0.70, 0.61 and 0.53, while for left pulmonary artery--0.58, 0.55 and 0.49. The same indices of female specimens valued for right pulmonary artery 0.72, 0.58 and 0.51. The size of the left pulmonary artery was correlated only with age (index 0.65).
