    Notes: Summary To analyse the role of the renin angiotensin system in the pathogenesis of hypertension in Cushing's syndrome ten patients with hypercorticism (five with pituitary hypothalamic dysfunction, three with adrenal adenomas and two with adrenal carcinomas) received a single oral dose of 25 mg captopril. Mean arterial pressure was then determined at short intervals over periods of up to 240 min. Plasma renin activity (PRA) was measured immediately before the administration of captopril. Eleven patients with severe essential hypertension, who showed a comparable distribution of basal PRA values, served as a control. Patients with elevated basal PRA values (〉3 ng/ml·3 h) showed, both in the subgroup of cases with essential hypertension and in that with Cushing's syndrome, a statistically significant fall (P〈0.05−P〈0.001) in mean arterial pressure, the decrease being slightly more pronounced in essential hypertensives. On the other hand patients with normal PRA values (≦3 ng/ml·3 h) exhibited only a minor fall in mean arterial pressure reaching statistical significance (P〈0.05) only after 60 min (essential hypertension) and 180 min (Cushing's syndrome), respectively. Our results document that in patients with Cushing's syndrome the effect of captopril seems to be determined by the activity of the renin angiotensin system. Thus, in a substantial number of patients with hypercorticism, the renin angiotensin system may be an important factor in the pathogenesis of hypertension, whereas in patients with low PRA values other factors like oversecretion of mineralocorticoids may be responsible for the observed blood pressure increases.

    Notes: Summary To study long-term effects of captopril on renal function in patients with various forms of severe hypertension, serum creatinine values were monitored in 76 patients under captopril therapy over a period of up to 3 years. Three different groups were formed: (1) patients with essential hypertension (n=37); (2) patients with renovascular hypertension (n=20); (3) patients with renal parenchymatous hypertension (n=19). In each of the three groups reduction in blood pressure was accompanied by increases in serum creatinine. However, both changes were more pronounced in patients with renovascular hypertension. In this group only the rise in creatinine was statistically significant and showed a slight progression with duration of captopril treatment. Group specific analysis revealed that the increase was smaller in patients with unilateral (n=16) renovascular disease than in those with bilateral (n=4) involvement, but in the former it was still significantly higher than in patients with essential or renal parenchymatous hypertension. Separation of patients according to the underlying disease of renovascular hypertension showed that renal function deteriorated less in patients with arteriosclerotic origin (n=10) than in those with fibromuscular dysplasia (n=8). Statistical evaluation of subjects with renovascular and essential hypertension still revealed significant differences in creatinine when the patients with initial plasma renin activity (PRA) below and above 6 ng/ml·3 h were compared separately. A significant correlation (r=0.73;P〈0.05) between blood pressure reduction and creatinine changes was obtained only for patients with renovascular hypertension. Finally, in all three groups of patients creatinine changes were statistically independent from daily dosages of captopril. From these data we conclude that sustained impairment of kidney function by captopril is mainly restricted to patients with renovascular hypertension and possibly results from the combined effects of low renal perfusion pressure and interference with intrarenal regulation of glomerular filtration rate by a postulated angiotensin-II-mediated mechanism.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung In der vorliegenden Studie wurden 51 Patienten mit schwerer, auf eine standardisierte Dreiertherapie resistente Hypertonie (20 mit essentieller, 15 mit renovaskulärer und 16 mit renalparenchymatöser Hypertonie) mit dem oralen Converting enzyme Inhibitor Captopril behandelt. Die mittlere Behandlungszeit betrug 8,6 Monate für Patienten mit essentieller, 8,9 Monate für solche mit renovaskulärer und 9,9 Monate für Fälle mit renalparenchymatöser Hypertonie. In allen 3 Patientengruppen konnte ein ausgeprägter und anhaltender Blutdruckabfall beobachtet werden. Allerdings war sowohl der absolute Blutdruckabfall als auch die individuelle Blutdruckantwort bei Patienten mit renovaskulärer Hypertonie ausgeprägter als bei solchen mit essentieller und renalparenchymatöser Hypertonie. Diese Ergebnisse weisen damit auf einen stärkeren antihypertensiven Effekt von Captopril bei Patienten mit renovaskulärer Hypertonie hin. Unsere Resultate zeigen weiter, daß eine Monotherapie mit Captopril eher die Ausnahme als die Regel war. So benötigten über 90% der Patienten zusätzliche Gabe eines Diuretikums und ein weiterer Anteil der Patienten darüberhinaus die Gabe eines Betablockers (50% der Patienten mit essentieller, 38% der Fälle mit renalparenchymatöser und 26% der Patienten mit renovaskulärer Hypertonie). Die Plasma-Renin-Aktivität stieg unter Captoprilbehandlung erwartungsgemäß an, während die Plasma-Aldosteron-Konzentration und die Converting enzyme Aktivität abfielen. In 17,6% (n=9) der 51 Patienten konnten Nebenwirkungen (Exanthem, Pruritus, supraventrikuläre Extrasystolen, Tachykardie, Wasser- und Flüssigkeitsretention, Raynaud-Phänomen, unvollständiger und vollständiger Geschmacksverlust und Leukopenie) beobachtet werden. Unsere Ergebnisse zeigen, daß Captopril bei schwerer therapieresistenter Hypertonie ein potentes Antihypertensivum ist. Dabei war bei unseren Patienten eine Monotherapie mit Captopril eher die Ausnahme als die Regel. So benötigten die meisten Patienten zusätzlich ein Diuretikum und/oder einen Betablocker. Allerdings erfordern die Nebenwirkungen des Medikaments eine engmaschige und genaue Überwachung aller Patienten.
    Notes: Summary In this study 51 patients with severe hypertension (20 essential, 15 renovascular and 16 renalparenchymatous) resistant to a standardized triple therapy were treated with the oral converting enzyme inhibitor captopril. Mean treatment period was 8.6 in essential, 8.9 in renovascular and 9.9 months in renalparenchymatous hypertension. In each of the 3 groups a marked and sustained blood pressure reduction was observed promptly after introducing captopril. However, absolute fall in mean blood pressure as well as individual blood pressure response were more pronounced in renovascular than in essential and in renalparenchymatous hypertension demonstrating a higher blood pressure lowering activity of the converting enzyme inhibitor in the former. In addition, our results document that monotherapy with captopril was rather the exception than the rule. More than 90% of all patients required at least the addition of a diuretic and even a substantial percentage of patients needed as a third drug a betablocker (50% in essential, 38% in renalparenchymatous and 26% in renovascular hypertension). As expected renin activity increased under captopril whereas plasma aldosterone and converting enzyme activity decreased. Side-effects (skin rash, pruritus, supraventricular extrasystoles, tachycardia, water and fluid retention, Raynaud-phenomenon, incomplete and complete taste loss and leucopenia) occurred in 17.6% (n=9) of the 51 patients. Our results show that captopril is a potent blood pressure lowering agent in severe and therapy resistant hypertension. The vast majority of patients, however, required concomitant therapy with a diuretic and/or a betablocker. Finally, the frequency of drug induced side-effects necessitates a close and careful monitoring of all patients.

    Notes: Developments in dosage of bulk solids. Dosage of bulk solids is a fast developing field of process- and production automation. Developments are determined directly by the current demands of the production process, with the properties of the bulk solids and the process itself playing an important role. A survey of proven dosage techniques from the viewpoint of the operating principles, properties, applications, and limitations demonstrates the great variety of problem solutions. An important difference between the individual dosage techniques is the nature and accuracy of mass limitation. The most accurate techniques are the gravimetric dosage methods, with discontinuous weighing giving the greatest accuracy. Developments have been greatly influenced by the state of weighing cell techniques, weighing electronics and computer engineering. The development of measured data acquisition and processing of control, and of instrumentation are described, compared, and assessed. A trend towards system responsibility and development on the part of manufacturers is noted. A accurate dosage of bulk solids requires constant flow of the solids and finely adjustable control devices. The principal interferences in bulk solids flow and measures for their avoidance are shown by means of examples. Successful solution of dosage tasks ultimately requires agreement between manufacturers and processors with regard to definition, determination, and control of dosage accuracy during calibration and during long term operation.

    Notes: Stirring Devices in Screw Metering Equipment - Action and Design Strategy. The accurarcy of metering by screw dosage equipment with or without gravimetric control depends primarily on the flow of material to the discharging screw. In the case of cohesive solids, stirring devices are generally required to prevent bridging. Experimental observations show that flow conditions correlate directly with the intensity of stirring. Mass flow in the metering container and hence optimum constancy of metering are attainable only from certain stirring efficiencies upwards. Cases of interference to metering due to poor flow of solids can be explained and overcome by modified dimensioning. The effects of the principal parameters - geometry and speed of rotation of the stirrer - are studied with the aid of two stirrer configurations - viz. overhead and concentric. Straightforward model calculations provide a mathematical method of estimation for optimum and reliable stirrer dimensioning also applicable to strongly cohesive solids.

    Notes: Pressure Pulsations Caused by Reciprocating Pumps in Piping Systems. The safe design of piping installations for reciprocating pumps requires proper knowledge about the pump/installation interaction. In many cases critical resonance effects can be avoided by proper piping geometry or improved pump performance with respect to the volumetric efficiency (primary measures). Normally it is necessary to use various secondary dampening methods which can influence the acoustics of the piping system. Several examples of experimental computer simulations of damper action - upstream and downstream - are presented for fluidand gas-filled damper versions. The influence of entry geometry of the dampers is explained, hints on the proper geometry of the entries are given and the effects of various dampers and their influence on the total acoustics are discussed. Special reference is made to the effect of orifices as dissipative and acoustic elements in piping systems. The investigation shows the importance of analyzing of the total system of pump, piping installation and vessels or reactors and the application of computer simulation for piping design.
