[The action of prostaglandin E2-induced pains on the metabolic and clotting systems of mother and child during birth (author's transl)].

11 pregnancies at term were terminated by dilatation of the uterine cervix, low amniotomy, and by intravenous administration of PGE2. The average infusion time was 4 hours 20 minutes, and the average total dose of PGE2 amounted to 0.2 mg. Parameters of acid-base changes, carbohydrate and energic state changes, gas metabolism, and changes in coagulation and fibrinolysis in mother and in fetus were analysed during labor and after birth. Labor activity and fetal cardiac action were monitored cardiotocographically. Checked against 50 uncomplicated spontaneous deliveries, we have found no disadvantageous changes in the parameters investigated.

Ultrasonic-cardiographic long-term observations in patients with operated stenosis of the mitral valve.

135 patients operated for stenosis of the mitral valve were observed and treated 10.3 years, on the average. Three years of this time belong to the preoperative period and 7.3 years to the postoperative one. For evaluating the degree of stenosis, several ultrasound cardiograms were made yearly. After the operation one ultrasound examination was made every year for observing progress. In order to examine the effect of penicillin metaphylaxis on the process of restenosis, the patients were classified into different groups. The best operative result was maintained if continuous postoperative treatment with penicillin was made.

[Relationship between premature labor and maternal age, as well as between premature labor and parity].

Various publications of the last years and own studies, too demonstrate that birth rank and maternal age, as well, in each case independently influence the risk of prematurity. The rate of prematurity for primiparous and multiparous women is above the average; it is just the same for very young and comparatively old women. Basing on a review of literature eventual causes are briefly discussed.
