    Notes: Summary The incidence of diabetic nephropathy in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) may depend on factors other than the quality of diabetes control. Hypertension is an additional factor associated with a high degree of renal involvement in IDDM. One abnormality consistantly observed in various tissues of patients with essential hypertension is enhanced activity of the Na+/H+ antiport. In the present study we have therefore studied platelet antiport activity in 41 healthy subjects (control), in 22 patients with untreated essential hypertension (EH), and in 35 normotensive IDDM patients (type 1). Of these patients 17 exhibited signs of diabetic nephropathy (group 1) while 18 had no evidence for renal involvement of IDDM in spite of a duration of IDDM of at least 10 years (group 2). The two IDDM patient groups were undistinguishable with respect to age, body mass index, and arterial blood pressure (group 1, 117.9±2.4/78.4±1.5 mmHg; group 2, 113.9±3.6/76.1±1.8 mmHg). Antiporter activity was determined from the rate of cell volume changes induced by propionic acid. Platelet Na+/H+ exchange activity averaged 23.43±0.43 10−3·s−1 in control subjects and was markedly elevated in EH (28.38±0.62 10−3·s−1 P〈0.01). Antiport activity in group 2 patients without nephropathy averaged 24.54±0.57 10−3·s−1 and was undistinguishable from the control group. However, platelet Na+/H+ antiport activity was significantly stimulated in group 1 patients with nephropathy as compared to group 2(26.95±0.73 10−3. s−1 ; P〈0.025). Our results show that renal involvement in IDDM is associated with enhanced activity of the platelet Na+/H+ antiport.

    Notes: Abstract In recent years there have been many studies demonstrating a correlation between increased arterial blood pressure and altered lipid profiles, and there has been an especially positive correlation between high cholesterol levels and blood pressure. There are differences between the various reports that are important. In our study the lipid distribution in 105 hypertensive patients with mild or moderate arterial hypertension according to WHO criteria without clinically or ultrasonographically apparent atherosclerosis was compared to the lipid distribution in 65 age-matched healthy persons. On the epidemiological level a significant, positive association was found between LDL serum levels (P ≤ 0.001), Apo B serum levels (P ≤ 0.001), serum triglyceride levels (P ≤ 0.05) and VLDL serum levels (P ≤ 0.01) and arterial hypertension. However, in contrast to recent reports, no significant difference was found between total serum cholesterol levels in normotensives and hypertensives, and there was no difference in HDL serum levels. No evidence could be found for a significant increase in lipoprotein (a) serum levels in hypertensives.

    Notes: Summary In a double-blind, placebo-controlled study the antihypertensive efficacy and tolerability of a single morning dose of either 10 mg bisoprolol (n=26) or 20 mg nitrendipine (n=27) were investigated. Blood pressure was measured by three techniques: (1) Casual blood pressure 24 h after the dose; (2) ambulatory 24-h whole-day monitoring; and (3) self-recorded blood pressure in the morning 24 h after the dose (6–8 a.m.) and in the evening (6–8 p.m.). After 4 weeks of therapy bisoprolol had produced a highly significant reduction in blood pressure as assessed by casual, ambulatory day- and night-time monitoring, and self-measured morning and evening readings. Bisoprolol was significantly more effective than nitrendipine, which did not induce a significant reduction in the ambulatory night-time recordings. Whole-day ambulatory blood pressure profiles showed an antihypertensive effect of bisoprolol throughout the entire 24-h period. 24-h blood pressure curves after nitrendipine demonstrated a markedly shorter duration of action, with no reduction in early morning blood pressure. Adverse effects and tolerability of the two drugs were comparable. The average changes in systolic and diastolic blood pressure after bisoprolol and nitrendipine in 2-h periods of ambulatory monitoring (6–8 a.m. and 6–8 p.m.) and self-measured blood pressure (6–8 a.m. and 6–8 p.m.) showed a good agreement between ambulatory and self-measured blood pressure determinations with no significant difference between the methods. The results show that 24 h antihypertensive efficacy was more pronounced for bisoprolol than for nitrendipine at the doses studied. Further, self-measured blood pressures at home were suitable for accurate estimation of the 12-h and 24-h antihypertensive efficacy of the two drugs. The methodological findings of this study have important implications for further pharmacological trials investigating the duration of action of antihypertensive drugs.

    Notes: Abstract The behavioral and electrophysiological activity of a mimic [(Z,E)7,9,11-dodecatrienyl formate] of the major sex pheromone component [(Z,E) 9,11,13-tetradecatrienal] of carob moth was assessed. Wind-tunnel bioassays demonstrated that the formate was as effective as natural gland extracts, and significantly more effective than the trienal alone or than the trienal blended with two minor pheromone components, in evoking source contact. Dispensers containing the formate were as effective as trienal-containing blend lures in attracting males when placed at the same dosage in traps in date gardens. Single-cell recordings showed that at least two olfactory neurons, differentiated by spike amplitude, are located in the long trichoid hairs on male carob moth antennae. Dose-response relationships indicated that puffs from cartridges loaded with at least 0.1 μg of the formate or of the trienal were necessary to elicit spiking by either the small or the large-spiking cell within a sensillum. Cross-adaptation studies demonstrated that both compounds stimulated the same large-spiking cell. The frequencies of spikes evoked from the large cell when stimulated by emissions from 0.1-μg, 1-μg, or 10-μg cartridges of either the formate or the trienal were not significantly different, suggesting that the formate is an effective mimic of the trienal at the antennal receptor cell level.

    Notes: Abstract Three sex pheromone components of the carob moth were isolated and identified from the extract of female pheromone glands, using a variety of techniques including coupled gas chromatographic-electroantennographic recordings, coupled gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric analysis, microozonolysis, electroantennographic assays of monounsaturated standards, wind-tunnel bioassays, and field trials. The major component was identified as (Z,E)-9,11,13-tetradecatrienal, a novel lepidopterous pheromone component structure. Two minor components, either one of which improves the upwind flight response of males when blended with the major component, were identified as (Z,E)-9,11-tetradecadienal, and (Z)-9-tetra-decenal.

    Notes: Thick-walled components subjected to pulsating internal pressure are widely applied in high-pressure technology and in manufacturing processes such as fluid-jet cutting and high-pressure cleaning, mainly in conjunction with reciprocating pumps. Corrosive fluids require high-strength and tough chrome-nickel steels with soft martensitic or semi-austenitic structure. This contribution reports on the fatigue of thick-walled plain and cross-bored pipes made from high alloy chrome-nickel steels such as X5 CrNiMoCu 21 8 and X5 CrNiMo 16 5. The speciments, uniaxial standard form and thick-walled pipes, were cut from forged blocks in the three axial directions. For loading with pulsating pressure, a suitable, high-frequency piston pulsation machine has been developed. The fatigue tests on pipe specimens show typical Woehler characteristics with only slight scatter and relatively good isotropy. The surprisingly large admissible pulsating pressure can be explained for the applied steels by dynamic generation of residual stresses as a result of shake-down effects. Presentation in a Smith digram explains the occuring dynamic shake-down and its favourable results in comparison to the more brittle highly tensile steels. It also reveals that heat treatment to higher tensile strength does not always yield an increase in the admissible pulsating pressure. It will be shown that static autofretting and shake-down affect the fatigue strength of thick-walled pipe specimens in the same way. Tests with internal liners in the tube specimens provide indications on the sensitivity of material failures towards fluids. The investigation aids the understanding of the fatigue behaviour and the design of components made of modern high-strength corrosion resistant steels.

    Notes: Titanium silicalite-1 samples of different particle size are synthesised and characterised by X-ray diffraction (XRD), photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), Raman and infrared spectroscopy. Size histograms are taken from transmission electron micrographs. Temporal changes of activity and selectivity for the hydroxylation of phenol and anisole are monitored. It is postulated that the p/o product ratios are due to the greater chemisorption of the ortho molecule.
