Wellens' syndrome: identification of critical proximal left anterior descending stenosis.

By understanding and recognizing the signs of Wellens' syndrome: 1) unstable angina; 2) little or no enzyme elevation; 3) little or no ST elevation; 4) no loss of precordial R waves; 5) progressive, symmetrical, deep T wave inversion in V2 and V3, the informed critical care nurse can make an important nursing diagnosis and, with the life-saving interventions now available, can save many individuals from massive anterior wall MI.

Sch 36605, a novel anti-inflammatory compound. Taxonomy, fermentation, isolation and biological properties.

A novel anti-inflammatory compound, Sch 36605, belonging to the blasticidin family of nucleoside compounds was isolated from the fermentation filtrate of a Streptomyces sp. Sch 36605, as well as blasticidin S, demonstrated anti-inflammatory activity in the reverse passive Arthus reaction and the adjuvant arthritic rat at doses ranging between 1-10 mg/kg and 0.3-6.0 mg/kg, respectively. A minor component, Sch 366606, co-produced in the in the fermentation was isolated and identified as a known compound in the blasticidin family of compounds.

Midface position after Le Fort III advancement: a long-term follow-up study.

In 1983, we evaluated the stability of midface position after Le Fort III advancement for midface hypoplasia secondary to Crouzon's or Apert's syndromes. The patients were operated upon from 1972 to 1980, and mean follow-up was 5.8 years (Kaban et al, 1984). In this study, we present an additional 3 1/2 year follow-up of these patients to look at what happens to midface position after Le Fort III osteotomy in growing and nongrowing patients.

Midface position after LeFort III advancement.

Nineteen of 30 patients who had midface advancement procedures between 1972 and 1980 had sufficient cephalometric data to be included in this retrospective study. The position of the midface in relation to the cranium and mandible was evaluated immediately postoperatively and for a period of 2 to 11 years (mean 5.8 years). At 1 year, midface position after LeFort III advancement was stable in 12 of 19 patients. Of these 12 patients, 8 showed some evidence of downward and/or forward movement of the midface. The remaining 7 patients showed a minor degree of midface relapse in the first year of follow-up. In 15 of 19 patients, at 2 years or more postoperatively, the final position of the midface was either at, anterior to, or inferior to its immediate postoperative location. Correction of exorbitism remained stable in all but one patient, who required a second advancement of the orbital segment. Three patients required subsequent LeFort I osteotomy to correct class III occlusion. Prognathism was determined to be secondary to mandibular growth, not midface relapse.
