[Electrode problems in pacemaker wearers (experiences with three electrode types) (author's transl)].

3 types of electrodes (Medtronic 6903, EMT 588, MIP 2000) of 123 patients are examined by following criterial 1. rate of dislocation, 2. development of threshold, 3. time of application. We found: The Medtronic has the smallest rate of dislocation, the lowest range of threshold and is quickly placed in the right ventricle. The rate of dislocation of the EMT 588 is still just acceptable and it also has a sufficient low threshold, but in comparison to the other helical-wire electrodes the disadvantage of being rather difficult to place in the right ventricle. The MIP 2000 has not proved to be useful due to its large rate of dislocation.

[New protease-inhibitors with broad specificity in the polychaet Sabellastarte indica (Savingny), I (author's transl)].

In this paper we describe new and so far unknown protease inhibitors present in the tentacles of the annelid Sabellastarte indica Savingny. At least five different isoinhibitors with inhibitory activity towards trypsin, plasmin, chymotrypsin and kallikrein can be separated electrophoretically. Our protease inhibitor active material differs from the other well known protease inhibitors found in invertebrates in its high molecular weight, in that it is heat-labile and in the occurrence of the isoelectric point in the weakly acid region. On the other hand, the new protease inhibitors have some similarities to the soybean inhibitor described by Kunitz, and to ovomucoid. We also discuss the possibility that these inhibitors may influence the fibrinolytic system.
