    Notes: Summary Previous studies have shown that unsaturated fat-enriched diets may have a beneficial effect on blood pressure in non-insulin-dependent diabetic (NIDDM) patients, whereas little is known about the effects on albuminuria. In a 3-week cross-over design we compared the effects of a currently recommended high-carbohydrate diet (50 % carbohydrate, 30 % fat [10 % monounsaturated fat]) vs a diet rich in monounsaturated fat (30 % carbohydrate, 50 % fat [30 % monounsaturated fat]) on urinary albumin excretion rate, 24-h ambulatory blood pressure and metabolic control in ten NIDDM patients with persistent microalbuminuria. The 24-h ambulatory blood pressure was similar before and after both the high-carbohydrate diet (mean ± SD: 145/78 ± 25/10 vs 143/79 ± 19/10 mmHg (NS) and the monounsaturated fat diet: 140/78 ± 16/8 vs 143/79 ± 15/8 mmHg (NS). No changes were observed in day or night-time blood pressures. Urinary albumin excretion rate was unaffected after 3 weeks' treatment by the diets: from (geometric mean ×/7 tolerance factor) 32.4 ×/72.1 to 36.0 ×/7 1.9 μg/min (NS) vs from 34.2 ×/7 1.9 to 32.1 ×/7 2.1 μg/min (NS). Fasting plasma glucose, serum fructosamine and HbA1c as well as lipid and lipoprotein concentrations were stable during both diets. Compared to the high-carbohydrate diet a reduction in the LDL/HDL cholesterol ratio was observed during the monounsaturated fat diet (p 〈 0.03). In conclusion, compared to a high-carbohydrate diet, 3 weeks' treatment with a monounsaturated fat diet did not affect the levels of 24-h ambulatory blood pressure or albuminuria in microalbuminuric NIDDM patients. Moreover, glycaemic control and lipoprotein levels were unchanged, although a potential beneficial effect on the LDL/HDL-cholesterol ratio was noted. Monounsaturated fat represents an alternative in the diets of NIDDM patients especially when caloric intake is not a concern. [Diabetologia (1995) 38: 1069–1075]

    Notes: Abstract A velocity-sensitive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) phase-mapping method was used for noninvasive study of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow in the cerebral aqueduct, for indirect calculation of supra-tentorial CSF production, and for measurement of blood flow in the superoor sagittal sinus (SSS). We examined 12 patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (HH; pseudotumour cerebri), and 10 healthy volunteers. The peak caudal and rostal CSF flow in the aqueduct during the cardiac cycle did not differ significantly between the patients and the volunteers. A significant correlation was found between the CSF volume flow amplitude and the resistance to cerebrospinal fluid out-flow in the patients (p〈0.05). The calculated mean supratentorial CSF production rate was 0.79 ml/min in the patients and 0.70 ml/min in the controls, but this difference was not statistically significant. However, the MRI measurements suggested CSF hypersecretion in three patients, whereas increased transependymal passage of CSF could have been the cause of negative calculated CSF production rates in two others. A tendency towards lower mean blood flow in the SSS (mean 345 ml/min) in the patients than in the controls (mean 457 ml/min) was found, and in two patients showed very low values. We showed that MRI phase-mapping may be used to study the relative importance of the pathophysiological factors thought to play a role in the development of IIH.
