[Albumin and its therapeutic use - part I].

Albumin is most abundant and most studied protein of the circulation. Its biosynthesis is closely dependent on the nutrition, amino acid supply, hormonal millieu, environment, osmotic equilibrium, diseases and some other factors. Albumin is synthetized in the liver on a polyscmes and delivered into the blood streem. Degradation of albumin is practically still unknown and is one of many biological puzzles. Albumin prepared for therapeutic use almost contains dimers, oligomers and polymers which are very important, because they are one of the parameters for evaluation of albumin products quality.

[Albumin and its therapeutic use - Part II].

Albumin is the most effective oncotic agent and has wide clinical application. In the resuscitation of injured patients with hypovolemic shock (during war and peace) the use of supplemental albumin is purported to be more effective in restoring plasma volume, increasing cardiac output, preventing pulmonary oedema and maintaining organ perfusion than resuscitation without supplemental albumin. Most important in a study of albumin are criterias for appropriate use because it was sometimes unjustified. Therapeutic use of albumin should not be dictated by arbitrary or pragmatic restriction but rather by rational prescribing from physicians well educated in its use.

[The quality of preserved blood].

The examinations of 30 blood samples each preserved with three Yugoslav different ACD-solutions were performed. The blood samples were stored at 2-6 degrees C and examinations were performed at the day of blood donation and after on the 7th, 14th and 21st day during the storage. Differences in hematocrit (well known dilution effect of the ACD-solutions used) and intensive morphological and chemical changes were found in all blood samples regardless the type of ACD-solution used. It was shown that the permanently increasing number morphologically altered erythrocytes (echinocytes and spherocytes) and the excessive release of hemoglobin and potassium from erythrocytes were occurred during the storage of blood samles. Too, there were noticed significant decrease of pH values enormous accumulation of ammoniac and other metabolic producta.

[Transfusion-infusion therapy in modern wars].

All previous experiences have shown that the application of blood, blood components and intravenous solutions presents an unreplaceable therapeutical measure in modern surgical-resuscitative management of war injuries. Together with the broad application of the whole blood, there have been also used other blood components (even such as cryoprecipitate and platelet rich plasma). Among intravenous solutions the most frequently mentioned were isotonic saline, Ringer's lactate solution, glucosaline, 5% dextrose solution, dextran solutions and, recently, human albumin solutions. Due to a high risk of transmission of hepatitis virus, the dried pooled human plasma is less frequently used. There is the generally accepted agreement that availability of the sufficient quantity of blood, blood components and intravenous solutions resulted in the decreased mortality of the wounded. The role of intravenous solutions is of particular importance in the initial phase of management of the wounded and in the situations when it is necessary to wait for blood.

[Transfusion-infusion methods in the treatment of acute poisoning].

For modern acute poisoning management there are several therapeutic transfusion-induced methods (forced diuresis, haemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, haemoperfusion, plasmapheresis, exsanguino-transfusion, blood and blood component transfusion, intravenous solution infusion etc), each of them having their advantages, disadvantages and limitations. No one of these methods is so efficacious enough that its application could be justified in all poisonings. However, some of them are considered to be method of choice in the treatment of certain acute poisonings.

Distribution of the Lewis blood-group system in 331 members of JNA.

The aim of this paper is to describe the phenotype distribution in Yugoslavians, members of JNA. The results are systematised into two groups: a. phenotype distribution of the blood-group system in tested persons; b. the relationship of phenotypes and ABO blood-group system.
