[Effect of veinotonyl 75 on the capillary permeability test using technetium albumin in cyclic orthostatic edemas].

The purpose of this trial was to evaluate the clinical effect of Veinotonyl 75 in 42 women, 42 +/- 11 years old, with orthostatic cyclic edema. The main evaluation criterion was the result of a capillary filtration test with 99 mTc albumin which was performed at day 0 and at day 30 after treatment. At day 0, all the women had abnormal results ie an albumin retention > or = 8% (mean: 14.3% +/- 4.8%). At day 30, 75% of the patients were normalized in the Veinotonyl 75 group versus 38% in the placebo group (p < 0.02). The albumin retention in Veinotonyl 75 group was under the pathological level (mean: 5.2% +/- 4.8%) while it was over in the placebo group (mean: 9.4% +/- 7%). This study confirms the activity of Veinotonyl 75 on capillar protein hyperfiltration and on return venous circulation.

Capillary permeability to endogenous macromolecules in the equine digit.

Microvascular permeability characteristics were evaluated in digits of 7 adult horses. After capillaries were isolated and an extracorporeal perfusion circuit for the digit was established, a lymphatic vessel draining the distal portion of the phalangeal region was cannulated at the level of the coronary band. Venous pressure was increased in a stepwise manner, and lymph flow, lymph protein concentration (Cl), and plasma protein concentration (Cp) were determined after measured variables were allowed to reach steady state. Lymph-to-plasma protein concentration ratios (Cl/Cp) and lymph and plasma oncotic pressures were determined from samples collected during steady state. The osmotic reflection coefficient was determined after Cl/Cp became constant, regardless of increasing lymph flow, and was expressed as 1--Cl/Cp. The osmotic reflection coefficient for the digit was 0.67. Seemingly, the microvasculature bed of the digit was relatively permeable and could maintain only 67% of the endogenous macromolecules within the vasculature.

What determines glomerular capillary permeability?

There have been exciting recent advances in our understanding of the structural and molecular biology of the glomerular slit diaphragm, as described in a report in this issue of the JCI. These findings, combined with data on the permeability of the basement membrane and evidence that the endothelium may be a more important barrier than often supposed, are allowing a clearer understanding to emerge of how the 3 parts of the glomerular capillary wall jointly determine its functional properties.
