[Consequences of ischemia of the terminal ileum in the rat: influence of exclusive parenteral nutrition].

An experimental model of ischemia of the distal part of the small intestine has been realized in rats. This experimental study realizes a moderate ischemia of the distal part of ileum loops, by vascular ligations. An important decreasing of the intestinal motility is observed 2 days after the operation, by in vitro study. The motility became normal 7 days after. During this time a microbiological evaluation revealed an important increasing of anaerobic germ in the distal ileum. Total parenteral nutrition preserves the intestinal motility and the endoluminal flora. Ischemia of the small bowel is an important component of enterocolitis by modification of the peristalsis. The total Parenteral Nutrition in such condition seems to protect the intestinal flora.

Sweat collection from athletes.

The difficulty in taking sweat during heavy physical exercise has drawn the authors into testing a technique of sampling generally used in paediatrics. The fact that the results, which have been dealt with statistically, should coincide with the physiological facts already published allows us to consider a use of the technique in order to investigate the physiological mechanisms in action during sweating under different metabolic conditions.

[Control of hypertension and blood lactate during exercise. Comparison of central antihypertensive agents with the cardio-selective beta blockers metoprolol and atenolol].

To assess whether betablockers (BB) would better control blood pressure than central antihypertensive drugs (CAD) clonidine or alpha methyldopa in hypertensive patients during exercise, comparable triangular ergometric bicycle exercises were performed by the same patients while their hypertension had been controlled at rest either with CAD or BB. Blood pressure, heart rate and blood lactate before and during exercise were compared in II patients treated with metoprolol and CAD, and in 12 other patients treated with atenolol and CAD. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure on exercise were significantly lower with BB than with CAD. Heart rate and rate-pressure product were always lower with BB than with CAD. Blood lactate increase was greater with BB than with CAD. The work capacity was greater with atenolol than with CAD, but comparable between metoprolol and CAD.

[Metabolic and pharmacologic interactions on the bronchial tonus].

After reminding data concerning the part played by the as a rule antagonist cAMP system in moticity of the smooth muscle fibers in general and of the bronchial fibers in particular, the authors study the different types of interaction on bronchial muscular fibers which have been discribed. It is concerning the adrenergic fibers that the experimental and clinical data are prevalent (role of bronchial alpha- and beta2- receptors) and the authors point especially to their own studies performed since 1964 concerning the alpha1- -bronchoconstrictive component and progressive auto-inhibition of the bronchial beta2- receptors. But autacoids (serotonin, bradykinin, histamine and prostaglandines) and with the stimulating or inhibiting agents of the beta2 -receptors also begin to be recognized.

[Bronchial mediators and receptors: current data].

This is a very precise study of the mechanisms which intervene in bronchial motility. It is apparent that the most important recent acquisitions in the realm of bronchial mediators, over these last 10 years remains: the demonstration in the animal and in man of the duality between adrenergic bronchoconstriction of alpha nature and adrenergic bronchoconstriction of beta-2 nature, the duality of the effects of prostaglandins (PGF2 alpha broncho-constrictive, and PGE2 bronchodilator), and the role of cyclic AMP at the junction of the action of numerous substances which are active on the bronchial musculature.
