[Intestinal adaptive response of the rat after bilio-pancreatic and food diversion from the duodenum].

The object of the research was to evalute, in the rat, the effects brought about on the intestinal trophism by the selective and combined exclusion of the bile, the pancreatic secretion and the food exsert, certainly, a trophic activity on the intestinal mucous membrane where they pass trough, as it has been observed by other authors; but the modifications, observed on last segments of the ileum, do not explain a direct action of these factors to modulate the adaptative intestinal reaction. In the following essay we propose the hypothesis that the privation of biliary and pancreatic secretions and the food from the duodenum may stimulate a hormonal and duodenal reaction which is able to produced observed phenomena.

Primary hyperaldosteronism. Analysis of risk factors associated with persistent postoperative hypertension.

Between 1983 and 1992, 24 patients with primary hyperaldosteronism were operated at our division. Among these, 21 had adrenal adenoma and constituted the subjects of our study. The aim of this retrospective study was to determine risk factors that could potentially lead to persistent arterial hypertension (5 cases or 23.9%). The variables of the univariate and the multivariate analyses were: sex, age, diameter of the neoplasm, preoperative duration of the hypertension, and familial hypertension. The analysis demonstrated no statistically significant difference between the resolution of hypertension and the variables. Though not statistically significant, the only variable that approached statistical significance (p < 0.11) was familial hypertension.
