The Effect Of Theophylline On Intestinal Bicarbonate Transport Measured By Ph Stat In Amphiuma, Michael A. Imon, John F. White

Department of Anesthesia Faculty Articles

1. The influence of theophylline on the mucosa to serosa and serosa to mucosa fluxes of HCO3- were measured by the pH stat technique in isolated segments of proximal small intestine from Amphiuma maintained under short-circuited conditions. The mucosal or serosal fluid was exposed to media containing 25 mM-HCO3- (pH 7.4) while the pH of unbuffered media in the opposite compartment was maintained by addition of acid. 2. Theophylline significantly increased the secretory flux of HCO3- and significantly reduced the absorptive flux when measured in Cl- -free (SO4(2-)) media. 3. In normal media theophylline did not alter the secretory flux …

Intractable Hiccups And A Posterior Fossa Arteriovenous Malformation: A Case Report, Timothy J. Laing, Mircea A. Morariu, Ghaus M. Malik, Suresh C. Patel

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

A 29-year-old man is presented who developed intractable hiccups following a subarachnoid hemorrhage from a posterior fossa dural arteriovenous malformation (AVM). The hiccups persisted even after various treatments had been attempted, and the AVM had been excised surgically. The hiccups stopped after a bilateral phrenic nerve section was performed. This report reviews the central causes and mechanisms of hiccups and emphasizes the importance of selective vertebral angiography in demonstrating posterior fossa AVM.

Vertebral Artery Injury: Case Report And Review Of Operative Approaches, Richard G. Stapleford, James C. Gruenberg, D. Gary Wolford, James B. Kerchner

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Traumatic injury to the upper third of the neck, cephalad to the angle of the mandible, distorts the complexity of normal anatomy and underscores the importance of preoperative arteriography when possible. This report describes the case of a young man who was brought to the Emergency Room of our hospital suffering from a severe gunshot wound to the cervical spine, vertebral artery, and maxillofacial skeleton. His injury was successfully managed by combining a standard arterolateral incision with a procedure that has been described for exposing retro maxillary tumors. This operative technique provided the surgeon with direct access to the injury, …

The Polytetrafluoroethylene (Ptfe) Graft For Portacaval Interposition: An Experimental Observation, Alexander G. Yap, George Isshak, Ronald Lam, Roger F. Smith

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

In an attempt to determine the efficacy of the polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) graft as a portacaval interposition shunt, 26 mongrel dogs were randomly selected to receive a side-to-side shunt with a 6 mm, 8 mm, or 10 mm PTFE graft after portal hypertension had been created by hepatic vein ligation. The dogs were clinically observed, and if they showed signs of graft occlusion, they were reexplored surgically. The 6 mm graft had a 0% patency rate; the 8 mm graft had a 28.6% patency rate; and the 10 mm graft had an 87.5% patency rate. Histological examinations revealed adequate incorporation of …

A New Surgical Approach To Stabilizing C1-2 Subluxation In Rheumatoid Arthritis, R. A. De Los Reyes, G. M. Malik, K. K. Wu, J. I. Ausman

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Atlanto-axial subluxation in patients with rheumatoid arthritis presents a difficult therapeutic problem. Because of their underlying disease, these patients do not tolerate the heavy orthotic devices or prolonged periods of immobilization associated with traditional methods of surgical fusion. This paper describes a surgical technique which allows early mobilization and minimal external fixation. The results from a series of ten patients in which this technique was used are also discussed.

A Role For Dentistry In Managing The Oro-Nasopharyngeal Irradiated Cancer Patient, Michael R. Britt

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Radiation therapy for oral and nasopharyngeal carcinoma produces direct and indirect changes in the oral cavity. Before such therapy is begun, the cancer patient should be examined by a trained dental specialist so that associated problems such as oral mucositis, xerostomia, radiation dental caries, osteoradionecrosis, and ageusia can be addressed. During and after irradiation therapy as well, the dental specialist should be involved in the treatment program. In this way, it Is possible to maintain the patient's dental system through restorative measures, mandatory use of topical fluorides, dental rinses, and preventive prophylaxis.

The Role Of Industry In The Development Of Biomedical Technology, Raymond H. Kahn

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The world is undergoing a biological revolution that has made unparalleled demands on the American health care system. This demand for health care and its escalating costs provide abundant Incentives for reducing the cost through better technology. Recent developments in medical technology include the CAT scanner, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), as well as new advances in prosthetic devices. Most biomedical research and development takes place at not-for-profit institutions, such as universities, hospitals, and private foundations, much of it supported by federal funding from such sources as the National Institutes of Health. But, today, the institutions are in danger of major …
