摘要:

The hepatic uptake of 64Cu in the body was studied by whole-body counting in normal subjects, homozygotes, and heterozygotes of Wilson’s disease. Special attention was paid to the copper kinetics during the first hour after injection of 64Cu. Two different measuring techniques were used simultaneously: one collimated Nal(Tl) crystal was in a fixed position over the liver, the counts being recorded by a single channel analyser connected to a multi-channel analyser in a multi-channel scaling mode; and a second collimated crystal makes scanning movements along the body axis, the counts being recorded by a multi-channel analyser in a multi-spectrum scaling mode. With this procedure it is possible to use a double nuclide labelling technique by means of which both the 64Cu values for an organ can be corrected for the 64Cu blood content in the region of interest, and information can be obtained on the actual dynamic 64Cu movement in the bod

摘要:

Repeated electric stimulation of the ulnar nerve fibers was applied at the wrist in 7 normal and 32 pathological subjects; the response reflexes were simultaneously recorded in the chin muscles and at the upper limb, on the flexor carpi ulnaris. Although it is possible to obtain two distinct polysynaptic reflexes by cutaneous stimulation of the limb, the palmo-mental reflex causes a unique response, the latency of which may diminish to 35 msec. This response occurs most often at the threshold which elicits a nociceptive reflex of the upper limb. The palmo-mental reflex is almost always bilateral for a unilateral stimulation and in numerous instances is characterized by a wide receptive field. These findings suggest that the palmo-mental reflex is an early event in a general nociceptive response. In the normal subject this fragment of a general response to a painful stimulus is highly suppressed as are the local reflexes by suprasegmental control. The palmo-mental reflex is liberated and augmented in the event of habitually bilateral lesions of the pyramidal tract or the extra-pyramidal formations.

摘要:

The authors describe two siblings affected by an immunodeficiency state characterized by low IgA and IgM levels in serum, and an early encephalopathy with infantile spasms and hypsarrhythmia. The nosography of this unusual association and the relationship to ataxia telangiectasia and allied disorders are briefly discussed.

摘要:

Blood samples from 45 cases of subacute sclerosing panencephalitis in Israel were tested for the presence of antibodies to Epstein-Barr virus capsid antigen and early antigen by the indirect immunofluorescence method. Significantly higher titers were found in patients as compared to healthy controls with higher titers especially in Jews of Asian-African origin. Mean geometric titer was 1:42.8 in this group as compared to 1:10.8 in the control group. Antibodies to Epstein-Barr Virus early antigen were found in 50% of the patients and in none of the controls tested. Elevated titers of antibodies to Epstein-Barr Virus antigens seem to be related to impaired immunological mechanisms in subacute sclerosing panencephalitis patients, especially of a certain ethnic group.
