    Description / Table of Contents: Determinantal rings and varieties have been a central topic of commutative algebra and algebraic geometry. Their study has attracted many prominent researchers and has motivated the creation of theories which may now be considered part of general commutative ring theory. The book gives a first coherent treatment of the structure of determinantal rings. The main approach is via the theory of algebras with straightening law. This approach suggest (and is simplified by) the simultaneous treatment of the Schubert subvarieties of Grassmannian. Other methods have not been neglected, however. Principal radical systems are discussed in detail, and one section is devoted to each of invariant and representation theory. While the book is primarily a research monograph, it serves also as a reference source and the reader requires only the basics of commutative algebra together with some supplementary material found in the appendix. The text may be useful for seminars following a course in commutative ring theory since a vast number of notions, results, and techniques can be illustrated significantly by applying them to determinantal rings

    Notes: Summary A 58-year-old white woman with hypertension and severe hypokalemia was found to have a carcinoma of the left adrenal gland. Plasma renin activity was constantly under the normal limit, while plasma aldosterone levels were pathologically elevated. Plasma cortisol (8:00 a.m.) and excretion rates of urinary free cortisol were within the normal range. After an adrenalectomy, relapsing excessive aldosterone secretion was successfully treated with opDDD (Lysodrene). Ten months after the diagnosis was established, the patient died from a bleeding liver metastasis.

    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.

    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.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Bei 14 anephrischen Patienten wurde der Einfluß von ACTH, Angiotensin II, Orthostase und Hämodialyse auf die Plasmaaldosteronkonzentration untersucht. Gleichzeitg wurden Plasmareninaktivität (PRA), Plasmacortisol, Serumnatrium und Serumkalium bestimmt. Unter 4stündiger Infusion von synthetischem ACTH (2,5 µg/min Synachten) kam es zu einem signifikanten Anstieg des Plasmaaldosterons und des Plasmacortisols (p〈0,025 bzw. 〈0,005), während Serumnatrium und Serumkalium unverändert blieben. Eine einstündige Infusion einer suppressorischen Dosis von synthetischem Angiotensin II (1,0 ng/kg Körpergewicht/min Hypertensin) führte zu einem geringgradigen, jedoch nicht signifikanten Anstieg des Plasmaaldosterons und hatte keinen Einfluß auf Plasmacortisol und Serumelektrolyte. Eine nach 60 min zusätzlich durchgeführte ACTH-Infusion (2,5 µg/min Synacthen) bewirkte über einen Zeitraum von 4 h einen ähnlichen Plasmaaldosteronansteig wie die alleinige ACTH-Infusion. Durch Orthostase ließ sich ein signifikanter Anstieg des Plasmaaldosterons (p〈0,05) erzielen, während Plasmacortisol und Serumelektrolyte keine signifikanten Veränderungen zeigten. Sowohl normale als auch isonatriämische und isokaliämische Hämodialyse führten zu einem vergleichbaren Anstieg des Plasmaaldosterons. Das Plasmacortisol blieb bei der normalen Hämodialyse unverändert und fiel bei der isonatriämischen und isokaliämischen Hämodialyse ab. Die Plasmareninaktivität war unter den beschriebenen Versuchsbedingungen mit ganz wenigen Ausnahmen nicht meßbar (〈0,2 mg/ml·3 h). Vereinzelt tiefnormale PRA-Werte wurden weder durch Hämodialyse noch Orthostase beeinflußt. Unsere Ergebnisse zeigen bei nierenlosen Patienten eine Stimulation des Plasmaaldosterons durch synthetisches ACTH, ein geringgradiges Ansprechen auf suppressorisches Angiotensin II, eine fehlende Potenzierung der ACTH-Wirkung durch suppressorische Dosen von Angiotensin II und einen Aldosteronanstieg unter Orthostase. Ferner ließ sich unter Hämodialyse ein Anstieg des Plasmaaldosterons beobachten. Dieser Anstieg trat sowohl unter normaler als auch unter isokaliämischer und isonatriämischer Hämodialyse auf und konnte deshalb ebenso wie die durch Orthostase induzierte Veränderung der Hormonkonzentration keinem der bekannten aldosteronstimulierenden Faktoren zugeordnet werden. Eine mögliche Beteiligung anderer Faktoren an der Aldosteronregulation ist deshalb anzunehmen.
    Notes: Summary The influence of ACTH, angiotensin II, orthostasis and hemodialysis on plasma aldosterone concentration was investigated in 14 anephric patients. Furthermore, plasma renin activity (PRA), plasma cortisol, plasma sodium concentration and plasma potassium concentration were measured. After infusion of synthetic ACTH (2.5 εg/min Synacthen) for 4 h a significant rise of plasma aldosterone concentration and plasma cortisol concentration was observed (p〈0.025,p〈0.005, respectively), whereas serum sodium and serum potassium concentrations remained unchanged. A slight though not statistically significant rise of plasma aldosterone concentrations was observed after 1 h-infusion of synthetic angiotensin II (1.0 ng/kg/min Hypertensin) while plasma cortisol concentration and serum electrolytes showed only minor changes. Sixty min after starting the infusion with angiotensin II ACTH (2.5 µg/min Synacthen) was infused additionally over a period of 4 h. Under the latter conditions as with ACTH alone an increase of plasma aldosterone concentration was observed. Orthostasis caused a significant rise in plasma aldosterone (p〈0.05), whereas plasma cortisol and the serum electrolytes remained unchanged. Conventional as well as isonatriaemic and isokaliaemic hemodialysis let to a comparable increase of plasma aldosterone. Plasma cortisol was unchanged during conventional hemodialysis, and showed a decrease after isonatriaemic and isokaliaemic hemodialysis. With a few exceptions plasma renin activity (PRA) was undetectable low (〈0.2 ng/ml·3 h). In those instances where low normal PRA values were found, these values were not influenced by hemodialysis or orthostasis. Our results show that in anephric patients plasma aldosterone increased in response to synthetic ACTH, orthostasis and hemodialysis. After the infusion of angiotensin II only a slight, statistically not significant increase in plasma aldosterone concentration was observed. The simultaneous infusion of ACTH and angiotensin II let to a comparable increase in plasma aldosterone as ACTH alone. Furthermore, hemodialysis let to an increase of plasma aldosterone under conventional as well as under isokaliaemic and isonatriaemic conditions. These changes in hormone concentration as well as those induced by orthostasis could not be explained by one of the known aldosterone stimulating factors. Thus, our findings suggest that other factors may be involved in the regulation of plasma aldosterone in anephric man.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung In der vorliegenden Studie wurden 19 Patienten mit seltenen Formen renaler Hypertonie untersucht: 6 Patienten mit Nierenarterienaneurysma, 6 Fälle mit unilateraler Hydronephrose, 4 Patienten mit unilateraler Nierencyste, 2 Fälle mit Coarctatio aortae und assozierter Nierenarterienstenose und ein Patient mit Strahlennephritis. Die Plasma-Renin-Aktivität (PRA) im Nierenvenenblut wurde bei 17 der 19 Fälle bestimmt. 7 dieser 17 (41%) Patienten zeigten einen signifikanten Seitenunterschied (PRA betroffene/PRA nicht betroffene Seite) ≧1,5. Der Prozentsatz positiver Tests war in verschiedenen Kollektiven vergleichbar hoch. Nur Patienten mit unilateraler Nierencyste zeigten in keinem Fall einen signifikanten PRA-Quotienten. Eine superselektive Nierenvenenrenin-Bestimmung bei 2 Patienten mit Nierenarterienaneurysma der oberen Segmentarterie zeigte in beiden Fällen eine erhöhte Plasma-Renin-Aktivität im Bereiche des Oberpols. 15 der 19 Patienten (79%) wurden operiert. Dabei kamen entweder plastisch rekonstruktive Verfahren oder eine Nephrektomie zur Anwendung. 4 Fälle mit Nierenarterienaneurysma wurden antihypertensiv behandelt. Patienten mit unilateraler Hydronephrose zeigten postoperativ die besten Ergebnisse (3 geheilt, 3 gebessert), während bei keinem der 4 Patienten mit unilateraler Nierencyste die Blutdruckwerte durch den operativen Eingriff normalisiert werden konnten (3 gebessert, 1 nicht gebessert). Die Patienten mit Coarctatio aortae und assozierter Nierenarterienstenose sowie die 2 operierten Fälle mit Nierenarterienaneurysma zeigten alle ein gutes Ansprechen auf den gefäßrekonstruktiven Eingriff (2 geheilt, 2 gebessert). Der Patient mit Strahlennephritis schließlich war 2 Jahre nach Nephrektomie gebessert. Im Gesamtkollektiv unserer operierten Patienten war die prognostische Aussagekraft der Nierenvenenreninbestimmung beschränkt. Allerdings erwies sich die selektive Nierenvenenreninbestimmung bei Patienten mit einem Aneurysma einer Nierensegmentarterie als nützlich zur Entdeckung lokaler Reninüberproduktion.
    Notes: Summary In the present study 19 patients with rare forms of renal hypertension were investigated: 6 patients with renal artery aneurysm, 6 cases with unilateral hydronephrosis, 4 patients with unilateral simple renal cyst, 2 cases with coarctation of the abdominal aorta and associated renal artery stenosis and 1 patient with radiation nephritis. Renal venous renin activity (PRA) was determined in 17 of the 19 cases. Seven of these 17 (41%) patients showed significant PRA-ratios (PRA affected/PRA unaffected side ≧1.5). The percentage of positive tests was comparably high in the various subgroups except in patients with renal cyst, none of them showing lateralisation of renin secretion. Selective sampling in 2 patients with renal artery branch aneurysm revealed in both cases marked local renin oversecretion. Fifteen of the 19 patients (79%) were operated either by reconstruction surgery or nephrectomy. Four cases with a renal artery aneurysm were treated with antihypertensive drugs. Patients with unilateral hydronephrosis showed the best response to surgery in terms of cure rate (3 cured, 3 improved), whereas blood pressure normalisation could not be achieved in patients with simple renal cyst (2 improved, 1 unimproved). Patients with coarctation of the abdominal aorta and associated renal artery stenosis and the 2 operated cases with renal artery aneurysm showed a good effect of corrective surgery (2 cured, 2 improved). The patient with radiation nephritis finally was improved 2 years after nephrectomy. For the total group the prognostic validity of renal venous renin determination was limited. However, selective blood sampling from peripheral renal veins may be useful in cases with renal artery branch aneurysm to detect local oversecretion of renin.

    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.

    Notes: Summary Skin patches of a clonidine transdermal therapeutic system (clonidine-TTS) with a constant release rate of either 0.1 or 0.2 mg clonidine/24 h continuously over 7 days were used in 32 essential hypertensives. These self-adhesive drug delivery systems (3.5 cm2), which were affixed to the upper outer arm, were changed by the patients at weekly intervals. During a mean observation period of 7 months (range 1–19 months) transdermal clonidine reduced the blood pressure from 162±15/107±5 mmHg to normal values (diastolic ≦95 mmHg) in 63% of our patients. However, chronic use of clonidine-TTS was accompanied by a high frequency of contact dermatitis (type IV allergy) in nearly half of our patients (n=15, 47%). In 11 of these 15 patients transdermal clonidine administration had to be stopped because of intolerable local skin reactions (pruritus, erythema, vesiculation, and/or infiltration). Subsequent patch testing with all components of clonidine-TTS was performed in eight cases. Whereas in seven cases an allergic contact dermatitis to clonidine was found, only one patient showed an allergy to another component of clonidine-TTS (polyisobutylene). We conclude that this strikingly high incidence of local allergic skin reactions limits the use of clonidine-TTS in essential hypertension.
