[Experimental vaginitis in rats].

The authors present an experimental model of vaginal inflammation in female rats, through local instillation of different substances causing inflammation of varying degrees. The inflammatory reaction was studied macroscopically, histologically and biochemically. Using polysiloxane as a protective substance of vaginal mucosa was found to be of therapeutic interest.

Sustained elevation of hippocampal cyclic 3'-5' adenosine monophosphate levels after medial septal lesions.

The cyclic 3'-5' adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP) content of the rat hippocampal formation doubles during the week following a medial septal lesion and remains elevated for at least 1 month, the longest time period studied. This elevation in cyclic AMP does not result from sympathetic ingrowth, as neither superior cervical ganglion stimulation nor ganglionectomy influences hippocampal cyclic AMP content after lesions. Interruption of the cholinergic septohippocampal pathway in the fornix did not elevate hippocampal cyclic AMP content. Further, treatment of septal-lesioned animals with oxotremorine or of normal animals with atropine did not influence hippocampal cyclic AMP content. Finally, neither locus ceruleus lesions nor treatment with propranolol affected hippocampal cyclic AMP content. We believe this to be the first report of a sustained elevation in hippocampal cyclic AMP content. Like other long-term events, it is likely to have profound effects on hippocampal function and represents a remarkable brain adaptation to remote injury.

Antiarrhythmic activity of cetiedil and its analogues.

Cetiedil), originally a molecule used for treatment of some vascular diseases, exhibits several pharmacological effects. The authors studied cetiedil's stabilizing effect on the membrane and the antagonism against calcium of Cetiedil and its analogues (amino 3-thienylacetic esters). After completion of numerous pharmacological tests giving evidence of antidysrhythmic effects of the molecule and more especially in the digitalic arrhythmias and ventricular fibrillation induced by calcium (where it is more active than other products tested), the authors conclude that Cetiedil might enter in group I of Vaughan and William's classification of antiarrhythmic drugs. It is like Verapamil an inhibitor of the calcium penetration. This especially interesting antidysrhythmic profile suggests clinica research to determine the special position of Cetiedil in the treatment of heart rhythm troubles.

[Experiences with a new antiphlogistic and analgetic drug ("Eumotol") in orthopaedic and accident surgery patients (author's transl)].

The Bumadizon-Ca ("Eumotol") which does not contain any hormones or steroid bodies was applicated in 130 orthopaedic and accident surgical patients as an antiphologistic an analgesic drug. In over 90 percent of these cases we could state a good antiphologistic and following analgesic effect. Even when applicated for longer terms there were no allergic, toxic or some what disturbing secondary effects. The compatibility of this drug proved generally to be good. In five cases only with gastritis and peptic ulcer we had to stop the application."Eumotol" is strictly forbidden to be applicated in patients with hypersensitivity against pyrzol bodies and in cases of leukopenia. When a decreased function of kidneys and liver is evident the drug should be only given under certain precantionary measures.
