Lung alterations in newborn rabbits after maternal thrombin-shock. I. Morphological alterations. Alterations of the lung structure, especially of the pneumocytes type II, of asphyxied newborn rabbits were investigated. Experiments were carried out on pregnant does shocked by thrombin- and Pamba-applications on the 28th, 29th and 30th day of gestation and on their newborns delivered by caesarian section at these days and killed after one or five hours life-time. Histologically, adult rabbits show characteristic alterations in an early phase of the shock. Lung alterations are the main findings in the newborns. Atelectases and, additionally, disturbances of circulation, permeability and also hyaline thrombi are seen. Lamellar bodies within the pneumocytes type II show a significant decrease of the lamellae and the whole osmiophilic material. The alterations of immature newborns are more severe than those of mature animals and also more severe after the longer life-time. These alterations are considered as a result of decreased synthesis of surface active phospholipids.

Bicultural training: a cost-effective program. The effects of a bicultural training program in easing adjustment to the work world were studied on new graduate nurses working in eight medical center hospitals. Data from that study are used to examine program costs per new graduate-head nurse dyad. The cost effectiveness of the bicultural program is illustrated by comparing program costs with savings resulting from decreased turnover among new graduates who receive bicultural training. The mean time and cost estimates for the program may be used by others to determine cost effectiveness of bicultural training in their own institutions.


The computerized medical record system: meeting the challenge for nursing. A system of computerized medical record-keeping in a health maintenance organization is described. Some problems arising in the shift from manual to computerized record-keeping are discussed. Perhaps the most important for nursing is the increase in the nursing staff's responsibility for complete, consistent documentation of patient care concomitant with the shift to a computerized system. Nurses must be comfortable with patient assessment, patient management and documentation in order to utilize the system effectively.


Peer review: a model for professional accountability. This article describes the implementation of a peer review process for the classification, promotion, and ongoing evaluation of professional nurses in a large university hospital.

The nursing administrator's role in health planning. The role of the nursing administrator in community and regional health planning and institutional program planning is illustrated. A planning systems perspective is proposed and strategies for involvement at each level are outlined. Nursing administrators who are not already involved in these phases of health care planning may be stimulated to expand their scope of participation.


The nursing care plan problem.

The nursing care plan problem. If nursing care plans are related to positive patient outcomes, why don't nurses write them? The authors conducted a study to investigate the effect of variables such as reinforcement, knowledge, values and incentives, and certain demographic characteristics on the writing of nursing care plans. The findings have some important implications for nursing administrators and nursing educators, and emphasize the need for further study and investigation.

Role of physician for promoting the involvement of other health personnel and auxiliaries in implementing programmes of fertility regulation and family. The magnitude of the task of providing basic health care for all the people of India necessitates reorientation of the entire health delivery system.  Family welfare programs must be integrated into the comprehensive health care system.  There must be a shift from the present institutionalized curative care programs to community-based comprehensive care which emphasizes preventive, promotive, and rehabilitative aspects of health care.  In addition, the current health hierarchical system must give way to a health team approach.  This can be facilitated if nursing personnel are given greater responsibilities in the health care system.  Physicians must take the responsibility of training other members of the health care team, especially in family planning areas.  Nurses can identify eligible cases, refer cases to proper services, actively participate in aspects of the family planning program, provide follow-up and educative services, and act in administrative roles.  There is a current shortage of nursing personnel in India because salaries are low, working conditions are poor, facilities are inadequate, social security is lacking, and they are asked to perform many nonnursing duties.  Recommendations to remedy these inadequacies are offered.

Abortion surveillance shows slower increase. According to a report in the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, there was a 9% increase in the number of induced abortions reported to the U.S. Center for Disease Control in 1977 over 1976.  This was a lower increase than in previous years.  As in previous years, those obtaining abortions tended to be young, white, unmarried, and of low parity, although women of black and other races obtained abortions proportionately more frequently than white women.  The fact that there seem to be more unwanted pregnancies among black women indicates an unmet need for family planning services.  1 effect of the 1973 Supreme Court ruling has been to increase availability of abortion services in all states for women, to the point where only 10% of women obtaining abortions in 1977 did so out of their home state.  Curettage accounted for 94% of all abortion procedures in 1977 and 92% were performed within the 1st 12 weeks of pregnancy.  More effective use of contraception and greater use of sterilization may account for the slowdown in the percentage increase of abortions in 1977.  Improved sex education courses, changes in attitudes, and decreased public funding for abortion services and referral programs have also contributed to the slowdown.  In 1977, for the 1st time since 1972, there was an increase in abortion-related mortality.  Delay and choice of procedure influence mortality risk the most.

In vitro response of Enterobacter to ampicillin. Three strains of Enterobacter were studied for their response to ampicillin. They exhibited a basic level of resistance that depended on the medium used and high-level mutational resistance at a frequency of 10(-5) to 10(-7). Two classes of mutants were selected, one of which showed markedly enhanced antibiotic inactivation as indicated by a biological assay and the other of which resembled the wild type in this regard. Both mutants showed cross-resistance to other beta-lactam antibiotics. The results explained discrepancies between traditional broth dilution minimum inhibitory concentration tests and early read automated procedures.

Control of protein synthesis in mammalian cells by aminoacylation of transfer ribonucleic acid. The dependence of protein synthesis on the intracellular content of aminoacylated tRNA has been studied in mouse ascites tumor cells deprived for various amino acids. A remarkable reduction in net protein synthesis has been found only after a drastic decrease in aminoacylation of tRNA. The quantitative correlation of protein synthesis with the degree of aminoacylation suggests that a moderate amino acid starvation primarily influences the rate of elongation at the codon concerned. These results are in contrast to the findings previously reported for HeLa cells. Some crucial steps during the determination of intracellular aminoacyl-tRNA have been investigated. The reliability of the method employed has been discussed on a theoretical basis.


Transcription of a cloned Bombyx mori tRNA2Ala gene: nucleotide sequence of the tRNA precursor and its processing in vitro. We have analyzed the transcription of a cloned silkworm tRNA2Ala gene in germinal vesicle extracts of X. laevis oocytes. The primary transcript was sequenced; it is 98 nucleotides long, beginning with a 5' triphosphate nucleotide and ending in  a 3' oligouridine stretch. After transcription for long periods of time, enzymes in the frog extract also process the tRNA2Ala precursor to remove extra 5' and 3' nucleotides and to add a CCA end. The twenty-two extra nucleotides at the 3' end of this precursor are recovered as an intact fragment, implicating a new site of endoribonuclease cleavage in eucaryotic tRNA processing. This enzyme activity has also been demonstrated by reincubation of isolated pre-tRNA2Ala with a germinal vesicle extract. The products of in vitro cleavage are the same as those seen in the transcription reactions. The tRNA2Ala precursor molecules are made faithfully in the system with as few as 6 bp of Bombyx morti DNA upstream of the transcription initiation site of the tRNA2Ala gene. This result narrows down the minimal amount of DNA adjacent to the 5' end of a eucaryotic tRNA gene needed to support proper initiation by RNA polymerase III.


Antibiotic sensitivity and synergism of 'penicillin-tolerant' Staphylococcus aureus. 15 Staphylococcus aureus strains were isolated from 15 patients with staphylococcal bacteremia. Eight of these strains were shown to be tolerant for cloxacillin. Cloxacillin-tolerant strains were also tolerant for most of the cephalosporins tested except for cephapirin. Strains were not tolerant for clindamycin and gentamicin. Penicillin-tolerant staphylococci showed a high degree of synergism between gentamicin and cloxacillin or cephalothin and gentamicin.

Staff nurse turnover in neonatal intensive care units. The turnover rate and patterns in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs) were assessed and compared with adult Intensive Care Units (ICUs) and General Infant Care Units at the same hospitals for the year 1976. Thirty-five hospitals with NICUs participated in the study. The findings of this study disagree with the previous literature in three major ways: 1 The turnover rate of staff nurses was less than half that estimated by The National Commission on Nursing for 1970. 2 The turnover rates in ICUs and NICUs were not significantly higher than that for staff nurses in Non-Intensive Care Units. In addition, the pattern of turnover among leavers is identical for all three major types of unit. The variability pattern for neonatal units, however, is statistically significant; this is not so with the other units studied. 3 There is no evidence for a stabilization of turnover following the usual 'induction crisis period' (the first 3 to 6 months).


Nursing and the process of scientific inquiry. Nurse education has to confront the problem of developing in students an understanding of the different perspectives put forward in nursing. However, all the perspectives adhere to the scientific method and it is therefore necessary to examine the process of scientific inquiry. As nursing occupies a position at the interface between physical and social sciences, it is also necessary to offer students an examination of the different paradigms which exist within the social sciences.


Research in nursing gerontology.

Research in nursing gerontology. Nursing gerontology is the scientific study of the nursing care of the elderly as individuals, family members and population groups. The author identifies and discusses the ethical issues which must be considered in relation to research in nursing gerontology: respect for persons, adequate knowledge base for decision-making, quality of life, quality of death and distribution of limited resources. Research priorities are then discussed.


Reassurance: a nursing skill?

Reassurance: a nursing skill? The proposition of this paper is principally that if the term 'reassurance' is used by nurses its meaning should be clearly stated and the methods by which it may be achieved should be clearly identified. The author begins by attempting to identify a workable definition of the term and by arguing a case for taking the approach that it is a nursing interpersonal skill rather than a nursing psychotherapy. Using this as the basis for the rest of the discussion he then suggests that as an interpersonal skill it is open to analysis and behaviours can be identified which help to achieve a restoration of the patient's confidence. Further to this, learning objectives are stated in the hope that the concept of reassurance can be seen as a skill which can be enhanced by educational processes. Full competence in the use of interpersonal skills is not a stable feature in all human beings; in every individual nurse there is scope for the development and training of interpersonal skills. Finally, the author attempts to achieve the major aim of the paper--stating nursing actions which may be employed in order to achieve this reassurance of the patient.

An evaluation of a workshop for teachers of nursing on an individualized teaching and learning strategy. This paper is concerned with the evaluation of a workshop for teachers of nursing devoted to an individualized teaching and learning strategy. The paper gives a brief account of the history of such workshops and continues by defining individualized teaching. Following this the characteristics of the Keller Plan strategy are outlined. This is followed by details of the course organization; its aims and objectives, and the characteristics of the course members. Finally, the method of evaluation is described and results are discussed.


The development of a conceptually based nursing curriculum: an international experiment. Nursing programmes in the United States of America are based on a conceptual framework. Not only do faculty and students ascribe to the necessity of such programmes but the national accreditation agency also provides its accreditation approval for the institution only after all criteria are met, including the requirement of a well-defined, operationalized and implemented framework. Can a nursing programme be developed in other nations utilizing the esoteric, American-based idea of the necessity for a conceptually based curriculum? The author answers this question. The manuscript presents both the process utilized in selecting a conceptual framwork for a new junior college programme in Kuwait and discusses the selected framework. The idea of a conceptual framework to guide the curriculum was as foreign in Kuwait as it was to nursing curricula in the United States 15 years ago. Though initially rejected by the faculty in Kuwait, the idea of a conceptual framework was reintroduced after much faculty discussion and questions related to nursing knowledge vis-a-vis medical knowledge, and what should be included in and excluded from the programme. By the end of the second year, a definite framework had been operationalized into courses and content. The selection of the framework evolved from faculty participation in the operationalization of the framework. This point is quite significant particularly in an international assignment, as it is the faculty who are left with the monumental task of supporting and continuing the work which has been done. Strategies used to develop and implement a conceptual framework included confrontation of faculty of the existing situation, lectures, seminars, workshops, and the identification of a critical review board.


Summary report on American nurse career-pattern study: baccalaureate degree nurses ten years after graduation: National League for Nursing, Division of Research, New York, U.S.A., March 1979. The Nurse Career-Pattern Study, conducted by NLN's Division of Research, is a longitudinal study of nurses at 1, 5, 10, and 15 years after graduation from the four types of nursing education programmes. Participants in the study are individuals who entered a sample of associate degree, baccalaureate, diploma and practical nursing programmes in the autumn of 1962; and associate degree, baccalaureate and diploma programmes in the autumn of 1965 and 1967. Each group is followed separately, and the data collection for the four concurrent studies is staggered because of the varying lengths of programmes and times of graduations. According to project director Lucille Knopf, the study is designed to describe the career patterns of participants, their contributions to the health labour force, and the factors influencing their nursing careers.

Methodological pitfalls in breastfeeding studies. Methodological problems involved in studying the differences in nutritional status between breast- and bottle-fed babies are discussed briefly.  It is maintained that breast feeding is always superior for every population.  The reason that studies do not always come to the same conclusion is that some studies are improperly carried out and others are inadequately analyzed.  Use of a biased sample constitutes an example of an improperly conducted study.  It is often difficult to obtain a representative sample in developing areas.  Inadequate funding and pressures to present any findings regarding infant feeding and health in the community lead to studies conducted with biased samples.  For example, samples from clinic or hospital patients are biased and do not adequately represent the health of the overall community.  Inadequate analysis of study findings is exemplified by confusion between correlation and cause-effect relationships between variables.

A study of malnourished children in children's hospital Lusaka (Zambia). The parents of 200 malnourished childred referred and admitted over the July-December 1976 period to the nutrition wing of the Children's University Teaching Hospital, Zambia, were interviewed in an effort to understand the home environment of malnourished children in Lusaka, Zambia.  The 1974 incidence of malnutrition in Zambia was about 23% with higher prevalences of marasmus and moderate malnutrition.  There were 9.4% severly malnourished children admitted in 1976 as compared with less than 1% in 1971.  Many of these children were admitted very late in a hypothermic shocked state which is directly responsible for the increasing incidence of mortality over these years.  Plasma or blood transfusion is a standard procedure in all shocked cases of kwashiorkor, yet many of the children still die within 24 hours of admission.  Malnutrition incidence was found to be closely linked to the rise in price index.  The majority of the children were admitted from the rainy months November to March, the time associated with a higher incidence of gastroenteritis, respiratory infections, and measles.  88% of the children were between 1-3 years old.  Marasmus (33.5%) and marasmic kwashiorkor (40.5%) were more frequent.  63% of the malnourished childred had attended the child health clinics in their infancy and were immunized but discontinued attendance one vaccination was completed.  The problem of malnutrition was in the toddler age group.  86% of the childred came from urban slums and periurban areas; 83% were from unitary families, living in 1 or 2 bedroom houses with no separate provision for a kitchen.  Rural families (14%) were living as joint families.  32% of the children were from large families.  52% of the parents were employed as casual laborers and earning under US $35 per month.  There were only 10 families with earnings in excess of US $125 per month and only 8 had good sources of income from farms.  As many as 68.5% children were experiencing 1 or more adverse factors which contributed to their present condition.  Almost half of the mothers were pregnant or carrying a young child.  An alcoholic family, divorce, or separation of parents was frequently observed.  Separation from the mother was marked by a deterioration in the health of the children.  Only 4 divorced mothers were working to support the family.  The remainder were dependent on their parents.  53% of mothers were favorable to family spacing if properly motiavated.  A social rehabilitation program should meaningfully involve the family unit.  Parental responsibilities must be propagated.  Family spacing with health education programs is vital in the improvement of child care.


A study of the effect of birth interval on the development of 9-year-old schoolchildren in Singapore. The effect of birth interval on some physical and mental aspects of 9-year old children was studied in Singapore between September 1974 and July 1975.  Birth interval falls into 2 main categories -- B1, the interval preceding the birth of the index child and B2, the interval following the birth of the child.  It was hypothesized that the shorter the interval B1 the lower the vocabulary score and general attainment of the index child would be and the shorter the interval B2 the lesser the physical growth of the index child would be.  A significant difference was found in the Mill Hill vocabulary score, Raven's Progressive Matrices score, as well as height and weight for children born with varying birth intervals.  Children with shorter B1 intervals do score lower than those with longer B1 intervals, there being a gradual improvement as B1 progresses from less than 12 months to over 24 months.  The relationship is linear.  The effect of B2 is less marked and is inconsistent.  The most striking correlation is between B1 and vocabulary score, B1 accounting for about 39% of the variation in the Mill Hill test.  B2 does not have as great an effect as expected on height and weight, but it was significant at the 5% level for height. B1 is again more important.  In both height and weight, neither birth interval is as important as in the verbal and perception tests.  Neither family size nor language spoken at home affect the vocabulary score to any significant extent.  Income does have an association with all 4 major variables considered and is 2nd in importance to B1 as a predictor variable in the cases of vocabulary score and Raven's score.

A model for the delivery of health care to pregnant adolescents. Part I: assessment and planning. The development and implementation of a health care delivery system for pregnant adolescents is described. The setting was an already functioning urban obstetrical outpatient facility for maternal and infant care. The successes and failures that were experienced are shared with the reader. In Part I the specifics involved in planning and putting into operation an adolescent clinic session are enumerated. In Part II the actual implementation, evaluation, and replanning are discussed. Both parts are based on the nursing process and the manner in which it was utilized in planning and development.

Divorce and its effects on children.

Divorce and its effects on children. In any given case, the developmental stage of the child, the parental attitude, the financial situation, the custody battle, the visitation policies, the interactions between parents prior to and after divorce and the openness with which the subject is approached will interact to produce some effect, positive or negative, on the child. The question is, as professionals, what can we do to reduce the negative effects for this population at risk? It is comforting to note that the suffering caused by family disruptions, in general, are temporary. But there is no reason why school personnel, armed with appropriate information and understanding, cannot help to make the transition a little easier for the children. "For the sake of the children" should not be just a phrase associated with keeping unhappy marriages intact.

"Angel dust:" an overview of abuse patterns and prevention strategies. Adolescent abuse of phencyclidine, also known as "ANGEL DUST" or "PCP," has increased dramatically in the past several years. Phencyclidine can be highly toxic, and efforts should be made to prevent its abuse. The authors advance one model of behavorioral intervention which utilizes peer group counseling to promote learning of practical skills for resisting pressures to use "hard drugs," especially phencyclidine.


Treating childhood obesity in a public school setting. Experience at an elementary school in Petaluma, CA, demonstrates that daily group exercise as part of a nutrition education program can help obese children attain normal weight-for-height. Such an exercise program requires minimal equipment and may be led by a classroom aide or volunteer parent at minimal cost. Dramatic improvement in participants' weight-for-height status may occur provided that student interest and attendance is maintained over a period of several months.


Interdisciplinary support of the gynecologic cancer patient. The gynecologic cancer patient has unique needs and problems that require a specialized approach not available through traditional and established hospital services. Discussed here are the innovations made at one urban hospital to meet this patient's needs. Central to the program is an interdisciplinary committee that routinely reviews and plans health care services for the individual.


One hospital's experience with implementing family-centered maternity care. In developing a family-centered maternity care program, staff at one urban hospital developed a set of implementation principles. These principles, plus anecdotal experiences illustrating them, are discussed. Patient and nurse satisfaction with the program are described, and a recommendation for FCMC immplementation is offered.

Music for the childbearing family. The therapeutic values of music apply to many experiences in life. The author illustrates how exercise, relaxation, controlled breathing, and sensory stimulation are enhanced by the use of music in childbirth education classes, labor and delivery, nursery, postpartum, and in the home. Charts provide suggestions of musical selections that may be used as well as a guide to tempo and intensity. Adaptations to the clinical setting are also illustrated.


Sex education from prospective teachers' view poses a dilemma. A survey was conducted among 102 prospective elementary school teachers enrolled in a required school health education course in a southeastern university in the United States in an effort to determine how these teachers view the need for and their roles in providing human sexuality education.  The final sample included 90 females and 6 males.  96.9% of the sample perceived their own knowledge of human sexuality as being adequate or better, but over 1/2 felt that they were not adequately prepared to deal with the subject in the classroom.  70% indicated they would teach sex education only if they were required to do so.  These prospective teachers seemed to feel most uncomfortable about the possibility of having to cope with parents who might object to human sexuality education in the schools.  They also expressed fear of having to deal with questions their students asked which would be embarrassing.  They were equally concerned about not knowing the factual answer to a question a student asked.  50% of the respondents consider the primary purpose of sex education in the schools to be increasing knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of the reproductive system and enabling students to have their questions about sex answered in an objective and factual manner.

Medical records--legal perspectives.

Medical records--legal perspectives. Good documentation of medical diagnosis and treatment is not only a medical necessity, it is a legal one. Whether the physician is innocent or guilty of malpractice quickly becomes a side issue when it is discovered that he has tampered with the evidence, thereby attempting to perpetrate a fraud upon the court. And discovered it will be--the techniques are sophisticated and the motivation is high. Medical records are also important in workman's compensation cases, insurance claims, personal injury cases, and even in physician disciplinary hearings as well as their collection of bills. In creating and maintaining patient records, physicians and hospitals have several legal duties, including the duty to do so adequately, to safeguard the records' physical existence, and to prevent such use of the records as would violate the patient's right to confidentiality. Courts and legislatures are looking with increasing favor on the patient's interest in the content of his record, a phenomenon which is closely linked to the nationwide trend in favor of the patient's right to know and his right to determine his own physical destiny. For all these reasons, medical records no longer serve exclusively as the physician's private aid; medical records are increasingly becoming legal documents as well.


Maintenance of normal serum calcium level in the hyperprolactinaemic rat. The effect of experimentally induced chronic hyperprolactinaemia in male rats on the serum levels of calcium has been examined. Chronic elevation of circulating prolactin levels had no significant effect on the serum calcium levels and normal blood calcium homeostasis was still maintained.

Ultrastructural changes in the placenta of the ewe after long-term intravascular infusion of 2-bromo-alpha-ergocryptine (CB154) into mother or fetus. The fine structural appearance of the placenta of the ewe has been examined following long-term infusion of CB154 into either the fetus or the pregnant ewe. Binucleate cells which usually contain aggregations of spherical membrane-bound electron-dense inclusions, are a characteristic component of the chorionic epithelium of the sheep. Following CB154 infusion into either the fetus or ewe at 111 to 137 days of gestation, binucleate cells were partially or completely depleted of the droplets which are present in binucleate cells of control animals at a similar gestational age. No obvious changes in the maternal epithelial syncytium were observed after CB154 administration. Infusion of CB154 into the fetus alone was also followed by degenerative changes in some binucleate cells which ranged from condensation of nuclei to complete cell fragmentation. Either a direct or an indirect action of CB154 on binucleate cells is suggested by these observations. Hypoprolactinaemia followed CB154 infusion in all treated animals; its possible influence on binucleate cell activity is discussed.


Effect of protamine zinc insulin on feed intake and weight gain in broiler chicks. Ten-day old Robro broiler chicks were used to test the effect of daily subcutaneous injections of two insulin levels (5- and 10-IU . kg-1 BW) administered for two different periods (5 and 21 days). Birds which received either 5- or 19-IU insulin significantly increased their feed intake over those of the controls (P less than 0.05). However, the lower insulin dose was found to be more effective in increasing both the feed consumption and weight gain of the birds, especially if administered for a long period. Between the injection periods, the high insulin dose seemed to have a greater carry-over effect. On the other hand, the administration of 5- or 10-IU insulin for either 5 or 21 days had no effect on efficiency.

Susceptibility and synergy studies of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis is an important cause of cerebrospinal fluid shunt infections and prosthetic valve endocarditis. Agar dilution minimum inhibitory concentrations were determined for 100 strains of methicillin-resistant S. epidermidis which were isolated from clinical specimens. Vancomycin inhibited all 100 strains at </=3.12 mug/ml, whereas clindamycin inhibited only 46 strains at </=12.5 mug/ml. Methicillin-resistant S. epidermidis strains were resistant to achievable levels of erythromycin, with 90 strains having a minimum inhibitory concentration of >/=3.12 mug/ml. Of the five cephalosporins and one cephamycin tested, cefamandole was the most active in vitro, inhibiting 97 strains at </=25 mug/ml. Antibiotic synergism was examined by a quantitative bacterial time-kill method. Synergism (>/=10(2) kill by the combination over the most effective single antibiotic at 24 h) was demonstrated with vancomycin (1.56 mug/ml) plus cefamandole (6.25 mug/ml) in 14 of 14 strains, vancomycin plus cephalothin (6.25 mug/ml) in 14 of 14 strains, vancomycin plus rifampin (0.008 to 0.012 mug/ml) in 6 of 12 strains, rifampin plus cefamandole in 9 of 12 strains, and rifampin plus cephalothin in 10 of 12 strains. The emergence of populations of bacteria resistant to 0.2 mug of rifampin per ml developed in three of five methicillin-resistant S. epidermidis strains tested. The addition of either vancomycin, cephalothin, or cefamandole to the rifampin prevented the emergence of resistance in these three strains. Clinical trials of synergistic antibiotic combination therapy for serious methicillin-resistant S. epidermidis infections are indicated.

Constituents in Erythroxylum coca I: gas chromatographic analysis of cocaine from three locations in Peru. A method for the determination of cocaine content in coca leaves (Erythroxylum coca) has been developed. The procedure involves refluxing the powdered leaves in 95% ethanol for 15 minutes, followed by acid-base partitioning with chloroform and a GLC assay. The recovery of cocaine was quantitative. This procedure was applied to determine cocaine content in three samples of Erythroxylum coca Lam. collected from different geographic locations in Peru. Using androst-4-ene-3,17-dione as the internal standard the calibration curve was linear over a factor of 0.5 to 10 fold cocaine concentration relative to internal standard. The slope (b) was 0.733, the coefficient of determination (r2) was 1.00 and the average precision was 3.9%.


Mutagenicity obtained experimentally by oral administration of dextroamphetamine sulphate to the rat. Research work on the possible mutagenic effects of the amphetamine, sympathomimetic amine, was carried out on the rat. The method used was the dominant lethal assay, in its sub-acute form. Dextroamphetamine sulphate was administered orally. At the dosage and frequency of the test, dextroamphetamine sulphate was found to be a significantly mutogenic agent. The over-all mutagenic index was 13.92% (P less than 0.01) for the test group and 8.90% for the control group.

Similarity between a kininogenase (kallikrein) from human large intestine and human urinary kallikrein. A human colon kininogenase (kallikrein) was isolated by gel filtration on Sephacryl S-200 and affinity chromatography on Trasylolbound Sepharose, yielding a material with a specific activity of 1.3 U/mg (substrate: AcPheArgOEt). The molecular weight of the enzyme as estimated by gel filtration is approximately 70 000. After reduction with mercaptoethanol two bands were obtained in dodecyl sulfate eletrophoresis with molecular weights of 27 000 and 70 000. The bimolecular velocity constant for the inhibition by diisopropyl fluorophosphate was determined as 4 l x mol-1 x min-1. The preparation was characterized by immunological and enzymatic methods. Using the radioimmumoassay for human urinary kallikrein cross-reactivity and parallel binding curves were obtained. Kinin liberation from human high Mr-kininogen was totally inhibited by antibodies directed against human urinary kallikrein. Trasylol and diisopropyl fluorophosphate, but not by antibodies directed against human trypsin and plasma kallikrein. The effect on dog blood pressure was comparable to that obtained with human urinary kallikrein. The amino acid composition of human large intestine kallikrein is very similar to that of human urinary kallikrein.

Urinary excretion of prostaglandin E like material and kallikrein: effects of furosemide. In a controlled study of 11 women, 5 with mild essential hypertension and 6 normal volunteers, furosemide produced a significant natriuresis and diuresis without changes in the urinary excretion of prostaglandin E-like material and kallikrein. Therefore, although some evidence in man or animals suggests involvement of both of these substances in renal responses to furosemide, the present data suggest that the natriuretic and diuretic effect of this drug are not associated with an increased excretion of prostaglandin E like material or kallikrein.

Human milk and breast feeding: recent highlights. Interest in breast feeding and human milk continued in the literature in 1977.  A review of the various areas related to lactation which appeared in publications in 1977 is made.  The biological interactions between mother and nursing infant were explored.  The biochemical composition of human milk was investigated in different circumstances.  There seem to be particular problems with assessing the volume of breast milk produced in relation to optimal infant growth.  Research as already shown that human milk has antiviral properties.  Environmental pollutants are found in breast milk, but no immediate ill effects have yet been noted.  Breast milk has been shown to be a better protection for the infant against protein allergies and common infections.  Lactation seems to protect the mothers against development of breast cancer.  Investigation continues into longterm advantages for the child of breast- as opposed to bottle-feeding.  National health services have become interested in promoting breast feeding in many developing countries.  Research is continuing into ways to promote breast feeding among working women.

Use of an "information collecting stamp" in maternal and child health centres. Advantages of the use of a rubber stamp to aid in collecting client information at Maternal and Child Health care centers in Tunisia are discussed.  The stamp's use insures standardised data collection on pertinent points related to the health of mothers and infants who are regular clinic users.  The child's card is stamped at each visit and information is then filled at each designated area.  These are: breast feeding, artificial feeding, whether the child is fed with his family, age of weaning, whether the mother is pregnant and how many months, and whether she has had a tetanus shot.  The Nurse can make recommendations on feeding with the use of a specific chart for adequate nourishment for a Tunisian infant up to 11 months of age.  Whether the mother has followed previous recommendations is determined by comparing current answers with those noted down previously.  Staff errors are also easily pinpointed by the discrepancies they make in noting down various information.  Staff education can then be geared accordingly.  The resulting well standardised collection of data will be useful in specific studies on the clinics and the area.
