Dental Plaque Grows By In Situ Cell Division(การเจริญของแผ่นคราบบนฟัน เนื่องจากการแบ่งตัวของแบ็คทีเรีย), Porjai Ruangsri, Dag Orstavik

Chulalongkorn University Dental Journal

In vivo plaque formation was significantly reduced when tooth surfaces were subjected to topical iodine (0.2% I1⁄2 in 2.4% KI) twice daily for three days. Similarly, in vivo plaque formation was significantly reduced on enamel surfaces that had been subjected to ultraviolet irradiation. Control experiments indicated that the plaque inhibitory action of irradiation resided with its interference with bacterial cell division. The results are interpreted to suggest that plaque grows in mass primarily by the division and multiplication in situ by plaque bacteria, not by a continued apposition of salivary microbes.(การใช้น้ำยาไอโอดีน (O.2% I2 ใน 2.4%KI) ทาบนพื้นผิวของฟันวันละ 2 ครั้ง เป็นเวลา 3 …

Effect Of Donor Pretreatment On The Graft Survival Of Human Cadaver Kidneys, Stanley G. Dienst, Krishna D. Valjee, Luis H. Toledo-Pereyra

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The effect of donor pretreatment on perfused cadaver kidney allografts was evaluated in 40 recipients at Henry Ford Hospital over a two-year period. Ofthe 40,23 received kidneys from donors pretreated with 40 mg/K each of cyclophosphamide and methylprednisolone during the first year of the study and up to 70 mg/K during the second year. Our results indicated that donor pretreatment for five to eight hours did not consistently improve survival rates in pretreated perfused cadaver kidneys following transplantation. The use of cyclophosphamide for donor pretreatment does not prevent the use of continuous perfusion to preserve human kidneys. Dosages up to …

Radionuclide Evaluation Of Renal Transplant Patients, Daniel S. Marks

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Radionuclide examinations provide considerable information in evaluating patients who have received renal transplants. In the uncomplicated case, baseline data should be obtained so that subsequent changes in renal function can be better documented. In the complicated case, rapid delineation of the problem may result in more effective therapy. Serial examinations with several radiopharmaceuticals represent the best nuclear approach to the transplant patient. This paper describes the application and performance of these tests as currently performed at Henry Ford Hospital.

Treatment Of Uremic Diabetic Patients: Hemodialysis Or Transplantation?, Godofredo Santiago, Cosme Cruz, Francis Dumler, Pedro Cortes, Stanley Dienst, Sandra Parnell, Maxine Uniewski, Nathan W. Levin

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Eighty-one patients with chronic renal failure associated with or secondary to diabetic nephropathy were treated with dialysis and/or transplant. Twenty-five had juvenile diabetes and 56 had adult onset diabetes. Juvenile diabetics did poorly on hemodialysis with 13 patients having a 19% four-year survival rate, whereas those who had cadaveric transplantation did well with a four-year patient and graft survival rate of 56% in nine patients. The three juvenile diabetics who received related kidney grafts are presently alive with good function. Patients with adult onset diabetes did well on hemodialysis with a four-year survival rate of 63% in 45 patients. In …

Effect Of Acute Posttransplant Renal Failure On The Survival Of Perfused Cadaver Kidneys, Krishna D. Valjee, Luis H. Toledo-Pereyra, Stanley G. Dienst, Heung K. Oh, Daniel S. Marks, Pedro Cortes, Cosme Cruz, Godofredo Santiago, Nathan W. Levin

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Between 7973 and 7977 we encountered 22 cases of acute renal failure after transplantation in 70 patients who received perfused cadaver kidneys. Nearly two-thirds of 76 nonfunctioning grafts were lost due to subsequent superimposed rejection, often undetected and, hence, untreated. Thirty-one percent of the 76 recovered function. The recovery rate, we believe, can be improved by earlier diagnosis and treatment of rejection and by avoiding invasive diagnostic procedures in the early postoperative period. If the oliguric period extends beyond two weeks, a closed percutaneous renal biopsy is justified. The diagnosis of rejection and/or other abnormality as well as subsequent treatment …

Histocompatibility Testing In Renal Transplantation, Hajime Hayashi, Jay B. Hunter

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The effect of HLA matching and other aspects of histocompatibility on renal graft survival were analyzed in 144 patients who received renal transplants at Henry Ford Hospital during the past ten years. Living related transplants with one haplotype match or better demonstrated a higher graft survival rate (at least 88%) at one year than the better matched cadaveric transplant. In cadaveric transplants, the group with fewer than two mismatched antigens appeared to have a higher graft survival rate than those with more than two. The patient population was not large enough to determine the effect of preformed antibodies, ABO grouping, …

Urological Complications In Renal Transplantation, Riad N. Farah, Richard Klugo, Thomas Mertz, Joseph C. Cerny

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

There were 116 renal transplants performed on 108 patients over a five-year period at Henry Ford Hospital with three major urological complications. The rate of 2.6% compares favorably with that reported in other series. Careful preoperative urological evaluation together with technically precise ureteroneocystostomy are factors that minimize the incidence of urological complications.

Intravenous Methylprednisolone For Kidney Transplantation, Krishna D. Valjee, Luis H. Toledo-Pereyra

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The effect of different dosage levels (0-100 mg/k/day x 3)of intravenous methylprednisolone was tested in canine kidney autografts undergoing immediate contralateral nephrectomy. Intravenous methylprednisolone was safely administered in doses up to 40 mg/k/day for three days after kidney transplantation. Higher doses ( 40 mg/k/day x 3) were functionally and structurally harmful to canine kidney autografts.

Prolonging Kidney Graft Survival With Concanavalin A: Effects Of Temperature, Perfusate Composition, Ph, And Different Manufacturing Lots, Luis H. Toledo-Pereyra, Richard L. Simmons

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

This study analyzes the effect of temperature, perfusate composition, pH, and variable manufacturing lots in prolonging kidney allograft survival with Concanavalin A (Con A). Cold temperature (4°C), crystalloid composition of the perfusates, and neutral or mildly alkaline pH were important factors in the effect of Con A on prolonging allograft survival. Also, different lots of Con A from the same manufacturer produced variable results in prolonging survival. Thus, multiple factors should be considered if Con A is to be used to prolong kidney allograft survival.

Reevaluation Of A New Colloid Hyperosmolar Solution For Hypothermic Storage Of Ischemic Canine Kidneys, Manuel Chee, Luis H. Toledo-Pereyra, Richard M. Condie

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

This paper describes the results of experiments designed to test the effectiveness of a new colloid hyperosmolar solution (Toledo-Pereyra) for renal hypothermic storage. Three experimental conditions were employed: 60 minutes of warm ischemia (37 C), 24 hours of hypothermic storage, and a combination of warm ischemia and hypothermic storage. Canine kidneys tolerated either one of the first two procedures when flushed with the colloid hyperosmolar solution before storage or transplantation. If warm ischemia was applied before 24 hours of hypothermic storage, four of six dogs survived more than 20 days after transplantation, while the other two died of uremia. Thus, …

Ultrastructural Study Of Wound Healing On A Root Planed And Citric Acid Treated Root Surface, Craig Martin Ririe

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

It has been shown previously that a root surface which has been scaled, root planed and demineralized by topical application of citric acid in vitro, is dominated by exposed collagen fibrils. The purpose of this study was to examine the mechanism of healing and possible reattachment of soft periodontal connective tissue to the root planed and subsequently acid treated root surfaces and to determine whether new collagen fibrils produced in the connective tissue could attach to these exposed fibrils.

Full thickness tissue flaps were raised and the coronal 4-5 mm of the labial alveolar plate removed over the maxillary incisor …

Isolation And Chemico-Physiologic Characterization Of A Parotid Hormone Activity From Porcine Glands, Jean-Marc Tieche

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

For the past decade, evidence has accumulated which suggests that the resistance of the teeth to dental decay is in part under systemic control. It was shown that the resistance is accomplished through the optimal operation of a dentinal fluid transport mechanism which is believed to be hormonally controlled by the hypothalamic-parotid gland endocrine axis. Although circumstantial evidence for such an endocrine function was strong, the isolation of a parotid hormone which stimulates the dentinal fluid transport mechanism remained to be accomplished.

Using modern biochemical techniques, a methodology was designed to isolate and purify the hormone from porcine parotid glands. …

A Comparison Of Factors Associated With Past Use, Projected Use, And Perceived Community Need For Health And Social Services, Pat M. Keith

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

Life change, political, and demographic factors associated with past use, projected use, and perceived community needs for services by the aged were examined. Data were derived from interviews conducted with men and women 65 or over in a midwestern community. Life changes were more useful in explaining relationships with health and social services among men than were demographic and political variables. But among women, there was less difference in the amount of variance explained by the three groups of variables. Although men and women differed little in the extent to which they had experienced life changes, discontinuity was differentially associated …
