A case of subacute hepatitis with reversible liver fibrosis.

Reversibility of hepatic fibrosis was demonstrated histologically in a case with subacute hepatitis. His first liver biopsy showed the transformation to liver cirrhosis. Gamma-globulin, TTT and ZTT gradually recovered to normal range, and serial second to fourth liver biopsy revealed the gradual decrease in newly formed fibrous tissues of the liver.

Effects of cytochalasin B on membrane-associated microfilaments in a cell-free system.

The mode of action of cytochalasin B was examined in vitro using bile canaliculus-enriched plasma membrane fractions isolated from rat liver. The pericanalicular microfilaments, which are mainly actin filaments and which are normally attached to the canalicular membranes, were dissociated from the membranes by cytochalasin B treatment. A microfilamentous network was found in the supernate of the cytochalasin B treatment. A microfilamentous network was found in the supernate of the cytochalasin-treated specimens and a number of polypeptides, of which a polypeptide corresponding in molecular weight to actin was a notable member. These results suggest that actin filaments become detached from the canaliculus membranes by cytochalasin B.

The para-carotid approach for internal jugular catheterization.

We have developed a para-carotid approach for internal jugular cannulation which utilizes only the carotid artery as a landmark. This technique allows us to locate-the puncture site regardless of an individual patient's physical, skeletal or postural variations. This study was undertaken in the period from January 1979 to June 1980 on 456 consecutive patients in wide range of age groups and various clinical conditions. The overall success rate was 96.1%. The only complications encountered during our study were five carotid artery punctures with formation of two haematomas.
