Syphilitic proctitis.
Two adult male homosexuals with syphilitic proctitis and without any detectable anal lesions are reported. There was no history or evidence of an external primary chancre in either patient. Of note, one had extensive rectal involvement of the first 20 cm and the other had multiple sites involved. One patient developed severe rectal bleeding following biopsy and a Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction after the first penicillin injection. Salient features of the literature are reviewed and discussed.

Effects of somatostatin and a somatostatin agonist on diet-induced pancreatitis in mice.
We examined the effects of somatostatin-14 and the potent somatostatin agonist (N-acetyl-[Des(Ala1,Gly2),p-Cl-Phe6,D-Trp8]-somatostatin amide) on choline deficient, ethionine enriched diet (CDED)-induced acute pancreatitis in mice. Serum amylase determinations were performed, and specimens from the pancreas were examined by light and electron microscopy. No significant beneficial effects of somatostatin or its agonist were found in this model of acute pancreatitis.
