Effect of ethanol on rat brain polyphosphoinositides.

Female rats were allowed to consume ethanol during gestation and lactation, and brain polyphosphoinositides of the 21-day-old pups were quantified. Ethanol intake prevented the disappearance of the metabolically labile pools of phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bis-phosphate, which are rapidly degraded in the control group. In contrast, preweaning undernutrition left the size of these pools virtually unchanged, indicating a differential effect of the two nutritional regimens.

Velopharyngeal incompetence: an easy prosthetic approach.

Various techniques are in use to correct palato pharyngeal defects. More important is its repair or closure of the defect and restoration of the function. Correction of such defect by means of prosthesis with speech bulb carries important place as surgical intervention can be avoided or delayed to the limit it is desired so. The method described here is simple and can be used as a part of transitary therapeutic treatment which can be replaced by permanent metallic appliance later on.
