[The behavior of lipoproteins, cholesterol, triglycerides, free fatty acids and free glycerol in serum of rats with experimental hyperthyroxinemia and hypothyreosis].

In hyperthyroxinemic and hypothyreotic rats the lipoprotein level in serum was investigated using agarosegel-electrophoresis and changes in serum level of cholesterol, triglycerides, free fatty acids and glycerol were determined. In hyperthyroxinemic animals the beta-lipoproteins were found in the same level as the control animals, while the prae-beta-fraction was significantly elevated and the alpha-lipoproteins lowered. The cholesterol was significantly reduced, the triglycerides and the glycerol significantly increased. The free fatty acids were slightly elevated. In hypothyreotic animals the beta-and prae-beta-fraction of lipoproteins was significantly elevated. The alpha-lipoproteins were found diminished. Cholesterol and triglyceride values were also significantly increased. The levels of free fatty acids and glycerol did not differ in both groups of animals.

[Lymphocyte sensibilisation by fetal antigens in man after immunisation with xenogeneic fetal cells and with malignant tumors (author's transl)].

Specific lymphocyte sensibilisation in man can be shown one to four months after injection of xenogeneic fetal cells by means of in vitro lymphocyte stimulation by the previous injected lyophilised fetal antigens. Adult lyophilised xenogeneic cells demonstrate no stimulatory effect. In the same test positive lymphocyte stimulation against lyophilised fetal cells can be demonstrated in about 50% of a group of patients with malignant tumors. These preliminary findings could be a possible link in evaluating the effects of fetal cells as a form of tumor-immunotherapy in man.

[Practical experience in the transport of newborn infants at risk by means of a mobile intensive care unit (author's transl)].

The development of perinatology gives premature and other newborn infants at risk a better chance of survival. The transport of these infants from the delivery room to the neonatal intensive care centre is a complicated procedure and its inherent dangers for the newborn infant increase with distance. Success depends on special transport facilities and the mobile van equipment is described. The results of experience in the transport of 218 newborn infants at risk are discussed. The necessity of initial emergency preparative measures for the transportation of the ill infant is illustrated by 2 cases.
