    Notes: Summary The antihypertensive efficacy of minoxidil and captopril was compared in 23 males with essential or renal parenchymatous hypertension refractory to conventional antihypertensive drug therapy. Following a pretreatment period the patients were randomly assigned to receive either minoxidil, 2.5 mg twice daily (n=12), or captopril, 25 mg twice daily (n=11). In patients with diastolic blood pressure 〉95 mmHg, doses of minoxidil and captopril were increased in 2-week intervals. Patients who maintained diastolic pressure 〉95 mmHg and/or those with intolerable side effects were switched over to the alternative substance. After a mean observation period of 12 weeks a significant decrease in systolic and diastolic blood pressure was observed (179/114 vs 148/92 mmHg in the minoxidil group; 176/111 vs 158/97 mmHg in the captopril group). The primary response rate was 75% in patients treated with minoxidil and 55% in those with captopril (not significant). After the change to the alternative substance two of the four non-responders on captopril and one of the two non-responders on minoxidil became responders. Side effects occurred significantly more often during minoxidil than captopril (p〈0.05). The high efficacy of minoxidil and captopril in the treatment of severe hypertension refractory to conventional drugs was confirmed. Minoxidil lowered blood pressure slightly more than captopril, but it had a higher incidence of side effects than captopril.

    Captopril before and after spironolactone therapy in primary aldosteronism (1985)
    Springer
    Journal of molecular medicine 63 (1985), S. 361-363 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-1440
    Keywords: Primary aldosteronism ; Captopril ; Spironolactone ; Renin-angiotensin ; Converting-enzyme ; Secondary hypertension

    Notes: Summary In three patients with primary aldosteronism, the acute effect of a single dose of captopril on the elevated mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) was studied before and after 4 weeks of treatment with spironolactone. Before spironolactone therapy, captopril did not cause any drop in MAP. Four weeks later, after an oral daily dose of 400 mg spironolactone, MAP was still elevated in all three patients, though electrolyte abnormalities were fully corrected. Since plasma renin activity (PRA) was increased to values above the normal range, the acute effect of captopril on MAP was tested again. A single dose of 25 mg captopril then caused a fall in MAP to normal. These data reveal the conversion from a renin-independent to a renindependent kind of hypertension after spironolactone therapy in three patients with primary aldosteronism syndrome. This might be of pathogenetic and therapeutic interest.

    Neopterin in AIDS, other immunodeficiencies, and bacterial and viral infections (1986)
    Springer
    Journal of molecular medicine 64 (1986), S. 333-337 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-1440
    Keywords: AIDS ; Neopterin ; Stimulated monocytes ; Immunodeficiencies

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary An increase in total urinary neopterin was observed in 12 of 13 patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), seven of 13 patients with lymphadenopathy, one of six healthy homosexual males, seven of ten adult patients with staphylococcal pneumonia, 11 of 12 children with viral infections, four of seven children with bacterial infections, and 12 of 13 children with various immune defects. Extremely high values of total urinary neopterin and monapterin were observed in severely ill patients with AIDS and those with familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. Neopterin excretion was normal in two AIDS patients with Kaposi's sarcoma, but without opportunistic infections at that time. On reexamination of one of these patients later on, elevated neopterin values were noted. Parallel increases in neopterin and monapterin were found, whereas biopterin was usually normal. The increase in total neopterin was mainly due to 7,8-dihydroneopterin and was accompanied by an increase in 3′-hydroxysepiapterin. Increased neopterin in urine is assumed to reflect the increase in GTP pool and GTP cyclohydrolase I activity as observed in stimulated monocytes. Thus, neopterin, as a measure of the activation of the nonspecific cellular immune system, may be used diagnostically to detect allograft rejection after transplantations and to follow-up HTLV-III positive patients.

    Influence of materials and structure on performance of a football helmet (1987)
    Stamford, Conn. [u.a.] : Wiley-Blackwell

    Notes: A nonlinear finite element model for the static analysis of football helmets is developed as a first step in a methodology for the mathematical modeling of helmets. Polycarbonate and acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene are considered as the shell material for the helmet. Such a methodology can be used to predict helmet response to loading and impact and can be incorporated in a computer program studying injuries caused by helmeted head collisions in football. Numerical results in terms of force-deflection curves, maximum stresses, and work of deformation are given. The influence of the polymeric material forming the helmet shell on energy absorption is studied. The effect of the internal padding material and suspension system is also considered.
