[Fibrin (ogen) Split products of nephropathies].

On healthy individuals fibrin(ogen) split products cannot be demonstrated in the blood. Catabolic products of fibrin and fibrinogen appear in the blood in case of general fibrinolysis, consumption coagulopathy with secondary fibrinolysis as well as local fibrin films with secondary fibrinolysis. The regular routine determination of fibrin(ogen) split products in serum or urine may indicate starting complications of many diseases. The appearance of these split products in case of renal affections indicates acute and active processes on the kidneys themselves; fibrin films appear in case of acute and chronic glomerulonephritis, casting-off crises on renal transplants, EPH gestosis, renal phlebothrombosis, hemolytic-uremic syndrom and occasionally urinary tract infections. The demonstration of fibrin(ogen) split products in serum or urine allows the following conclusions: a) acute and active process on the kidneys themselves; b) HMWS in urine indicate a fibrin film in the kidneys; c) an immediate beginning of an anticoagulation therapy; d) good possibilities to judge the therapeutic effect and by this the further progress of disease.

[Alpha-fetoprotein in assessing obstetric diagnosis (author's transl)].

Radio-immunologic measurement of alpha-fetoprotein is possible in small amounts of blood and amniotic fluid. During the first half of pregnancy the AFP values in maternal serum are lowered when there is fetal abnormality (hydatid cyst, immnent abortion). In the second half of pregnancy high values of AFP also indicate danger to the fetus (Rh-incompatibility). The older the pregnancy the AFP values in amniotic fluid fall. In pathologic pregnancy (hydramnion, anencephaly, trisomy) AFP concentration was normal or raised. Measurement of the AFP level in umbilical cord -- blood provides further diagnostic chances: assessment of the duration of pregnancy and, therefore, of fetal maturity.

[Maternal serum-alpha-fetoprotein for monitoring risk-pregnancies (author's transl)].

This study confirms essentially the results of other investigators who found a good correlation between fetal risk and maternal AFP level. This adds an immuno-chemical technique to well-known methods of monitoring risk-pregnancies (ultra-sound, HPL, estrogenes) which enables us to measure a specific fetal metabolic product, alpha-feto-protein, in amniotic fluid, umbilical blood and maternal serum.
