Estrogen dermatitis.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the estrogen dermatitis of women who have chronic skin disorders with exacerbations or premenstrual dermatitis in a cyclic pattern. Twenty-three women exhibiting skin disorders of pruritus, urticaria, eczema, papulovesicular eruption, hirsutism-acne with hyperpigmentation (hirsutism and/or its related disorders such as acne) and 18 healthy control subjects were included in the study. Sensitivity to estrogen was described in 14 of 23 women. Of the 14 estrogen sensitive women, nine had a premenstrual flare of their skin lesions and five had a chronic dermatitis with exacerbations. In the evaluation of endocrine profile, mean serum testosterone and LH levels of the patient group were significantly higher than controls (2.814 +/- 0.839 vs. 1.561 +/- 0.645 nm/l, P < 0.001; 10.843 +/- 2.538 vs. 4.539 +/- 1.215 IU/l, P < 0.0001). The LH/FSH ratio of the patient group was also significantly higher than controls (1.765 +/- 0.329 vs. 0.810 +/- 0.0116, P < 0.0001). Mean serum progesterone level of the patient group was significantly lower than the control group (0.499 +/- 0.201 vs. 0.977 +/- 0.396 ng/ml, P < 0.001). Hyperandrogenism and anovulation were the two more common outcomes in the patient group. Skin lesions of estrogen sensitive women were all cured with the administration of tamoxifen 20 mg daily for 7 days premenstrually.

The interaction of adhesive systems with human dentin.

PURPOSE: To investigate the interaction of six experimental and commercial bonding systems with dentin in vivo. MATERIALS AND METHODS: One-Step, Clearfil Liner Bond 2, OptiBond, Permagen with 10% phosphoric acid, Permagen with 35% phosphoric acid, and Prime & Bond were applied in standard Class I occlusal cavities in premolars scheduled for extraction for orthodontic reasons, combined either with a self-cured or with a light-cured resin composite. The teeth were carefully extracted 5 minutes after resin polymerization and fixed in 2.5% glutaraldehyde. After fixation, the specimens were dehydrated, sectioned, and processed for field-emission SEM. RESULTS: Although some systems produced gap-free intact interfaces in specific specimens, all of them showed detachment at the transition between the resin-dentin interdiffusion zone and the fluid resin placed over it. It was apparent that the presence of air-bubbles and/or thick layers of polymerized-filled fluid resin resulted in less frequent separation areas at the resin-dentin interface, providing support for the concept of the elastic cavity wall. It was also confirmed that some dentin adhesive systems do not form a thick layer over the dentin, otherwise the resin composite would not have penetrated the dentin tubules.

[Female genital tract tuberculosis].

The frequency of female genital tract tuberculosis exhibits a parallelism that of pulmonary tuberculosis in the population. It is generally found in reproductive women, but also occurs in postmenopausal ones. Its frequency has declined since the introduction of specific treatment, but it is discovered incidentally during the course of an investigation for infertility. The most common location is in fallopian tubes. In the Department of Pathology from the Medical School of Cumhuriyet University 11 female genital tract tuberculosis have been described between the years of 1984 and 1990. In this study, age, symptoms, localizations and pathological findings of these cases have been reviewed.

Application of capillary electrophoresis in peptide research.

Comparison of high performance liquid chromatograms (HPLC) with capillary electrophoresis shows the latter to be superior in many cases owing to rapid separation, high resolution and high sensitivity. This is demonstrated with two examples (i) the isolation of natural peptides from bovine tissue and (ii) characterization of a synthetic peptide mixture with the natural sequence (fragment) of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transmembrane glycoprotein gp 41 env.
