[Multicenter study of the results of the extraction of transvenously implanted heart-pacemaker electrodes using continuous traction].

The continuous traction of firmly grown-in collar electrodes from the right ventricle is a simple technique poor in complications with a high success rate, which can be recommended taking into consideration the indications in the failure of the immediate manual extraction and which can be performed in every centre for cardiac pacemakers. Apart from the consideration of adequate informations in literature this evidence above all depends on the evaluation of data of 29 cases from 10 centres for cardiac pacemakers.

Prognosis of chronic hepatitis.

The morbidity by viral hepatitis within the municipal and rural district of Eisenhüttenstadt with 66 211 inhabitants from 1960 t0 1970 amounts to 19.45 +/- 1.06%. The transition into chronic hepatitis appears in 5.5 per cent in 1 283 controlled cases of illness. Contrary to the acute viral hepatitis the numbers of illness by chronic hepatitis are increasing with proceeding age (0.3 per cent up to 14 per cent). The prognosis of viral hepatitis is altogether favorable. 84.1 per cent are healing completely primarily without any subsequences and 4.4 per cent are followed by defective states. The chronic persisting hepatitis heals in more than the half of the cases, mostly after a duration of two till five years of illness. The tendency to heal is significantly stronger in children and adolescents than in adults. The chronic aggressive hepatitis has an unfavorable prognosis. In the development of the cirrhosis of the liver (0.5 per cent) additional noxes are playing a role. The alcohol shows an unfavorable influence on the course of the illness (0.7 per cent). A hyperbilirubinemia does not appear essentially more frequently than in the normal population. The prospective character of the study in not selected patients imparts to these findings a real epidemiological sentential power.

[Serum bilirubin in an obvious healthy population (author's transl)].

An unselected sample of a population aged between 15 and 45 years shows an average level of serum bilirubin of 0,624 plus or minus 0.251 mg p. c. in 1862 test persons. The distribution graphes are slightly inclined to the left and their peaks are for both sexes and in all age groups between 0.50 and 0.69 mg p. c. The results are independent of the age (between 15 and 45 years). Male persons on an average show a significant higher level of serum bilirubin than female persons (0.677 : 0.566 mg p. c.). In 93.5 p. c. of all men and in 97.1 p. c. of all women the level of serum bilirubin is under 1.1 mg p. c. In the sample 6.0 p. c. of the test persons show a level of serum bilirubin above 1.09 mg p. c. Serum bilirubin levels of 1.1 mg p. c. and higher are defined as hyperbilirubinemia. These patients have to be controlled carefully, because in the fifth part of them it is found an organic cause and in the major part of the rest there is indication for a functional distrubance in bilirubin metabolism.
