Hypoproteinemia by itself produces a metabolic alkalosis. It is not clear whether a respiratory compensation (hypercapnia) develops with this alkalosis; patients with liver cirrhosis, most of them with hypoproteinemia, are known to hyperventilate. We studied 23 clinically stable patients with
We determined the effect of a body burn on pulmonary function. Full-thickness burns varying in size from 25 to 70% of total body surface (TBS), were produced in sheep. Resuscitation was performed with lactated Ringer's. We noted an increase in lung transvascular fluid flux as measured by lymph flow,
Ultrastructural and biochemical studies were conducted on the livers from chick embryos maintained in shell-less culture up to stage 39 (Hamburger-Hamilton) and from control embryos developed in ovo up to the same stage. The ultrastructural characteristics of hepatic cells from the cultured embryos
Eleven cases of non-immune hydrops fetalis (NIHF) are presented. Incidence was 1.8 out of 10,000 births. NIHF became more common than immune hydrops fetalis (1.4/10,000 births). Mortality was of 81% and complications were frequent. NIHF is associated with prematurity, neonatal anoxia,
A 62-year-old man with well-controlled diabetes mellitus developed numbness of the bilateral feet and hands, followed by subacutely progressive weakness and amyotrophy of extremities. He became bed-ridden state, and dyspnea also appeared, so he was referred to our hospital. Physical examination
Digoxin is a drug commonly used in geriatrics. The purpose of the study is to present cases of elderly patients hospitalized on the Geriatric Ward of the Provincial Neuro-Psychiatric Hospital "Dziekanka" in Gniezno with extremely high level of digoxin in the blood serum. The study was based on the
Pulmonary edema is an important cause of respiratory distress in newborn infants. It occurs with severe perinatal asphyxia, heart failure, hyaline membrane disease, persistent patency of the ductus arteriosus, pneumonitis from group B beta-hemolytic streptococcus, and chronic lung disease
We present a case of tuberculous meningitis (TBM), wherein pleural effusion developed as a manifestation of paradoxical reaction during anti-tuberculosis therapy. An 87-year-old diabetic man was referred to our clinic for fever and impaired consciousness. He did not obey vocal commands. No ocular
An intensive treatment of patients undergoing thoracic surgery is important, foremost because of the extensity of the surgical procedures and the generally poor condition of the patients. As a first stage of preoperative preparation an evaluation of the functional capacity of the vital organs
Intravascular precipitates, comprised at least in part of iron, formed regularly in rabbits given one or more injections of a saccharated iron oxide preparation intravenously, and these lodged in numerous capillaries throughout the body, particularly those of the lungs and kidneys. Large numbers of
The authors presented their own material of years 1974-1977. During this period 8788 children were born, in it 737 (8,3%) with low birth weight (below 2500 g). Retrolental fibroplasia was diagnosed in 4 children, it was 0,5% of newborns with low birth weight, and 0,04% of the all live-borns. The
Biological methods were employed to detect postburn changes of serum TNF activity and in vitro IL-1 production of blood monocytes in 24 severely burnt patients. The internal organ function represented by myocardial and hepatic enzymes and some indexes of systemic metabolism were simultaneously
During a 20-year period disseminated mycobacteriosis occurred in 11 (1.1%) of a total of 1006 patients with severe hematologic disorders, with the frequency remaining almost unchanged. The diagnosis in three patients (27%) was made only at autopsy. Tuberculosis accounted for 64% of all cases. Female
The transfer of male dogs from lowlands to an altitude of 3370 m was accompanied by hypoproteinemia and reduction of albumins and beta-globulins, stable increase of activity of alanine aminotransferase, decrease of activity of alkaline phosphatase and content of phosphate. This can be interpreted as
Pulmonary edema is an important feature of many newborn lung diseases, including respiratory distress from severe perinatal asphyxia, heart failure, hyaline membrane disease, pneumonitis from group B beta-hemolytic streptococcus, and chronic lung disease (bronchopulmonary dysplasia). Neonatal
