[Treatment of congenital dislocation or subluxation of the hip taken from personal material--factors determining the course and result of treatment].

A series of 65 children (130 hips) treated for congenital dislocation or subluxation of the hip with Pavlik harness been retrospectively reviewed. All patients were managed by the same physician and according to previously established principles. Mean follow-up after the termination of treatment was 7.5 months. Age at the onset of treatment and initial state of the hip were recognized as two major factors influencing the course and result of treatment. It was found, that the harness treatment is best initiated in first 9 weeks after birth and even a few weeks delay may seriously affect its efficacy. A dynamic index on alfa angle changes on serial ultrasound images of the hip (Graf method) has been introduced.

[Value of clinical examination and arthrography in diagnosis of meniscal lesions in light of arthroscopic results].

The results of clinical, arthrographic and arthroscopic examination in the group of 120 patients with suspected meniscal lesion have been compared. In the clinical examination the McMurray and the Apley tests revealed a good correlation with meniscal tears. Arthrography was found to be in accordance with arthroscopy in 62%. The results were falsely negative in 15% and falsely positive in 25% of patients respectively.

Radiological and computed tomographic studies of the width of the normal hip joint in men aged 30-60 years.

We made an attempt to evaluate the width of the joint space of the normal hip joint in men aged 30-60 years. We analysed 164 roentgenograms and 68 CT scans of the pelvis measuring the width of the right and left hip joint in four segments of the frontal plane (roentgenograms) and in three segments of the horizontal plane (CT scans). In each segment we determined the mean width of the joint space and mutual relation between the measurements by an analysis of variance and correlation coefficient. It was shown that with advancing age of the patient the joint space increased bilaterally in the inferoposterior part (segment IV on the roentgenograms and segment III on the CT scans). The width of the joint space did not change significantly with age in the remaining segments of the hip joint.

Chronobiological analysis of changes in circadian rhythm of anterior pituitary hormones level during glycemia normalization by means of biostator.

We compared the circadian rhythms of anterior pituitary hormones in 15 patients with noncompensated insulin-dependent diabetes on first and second day treatment with Biostator. The rhythm was evaluated by means of a least squares analysis and presented as the circle of cosinors. In noncompensated diabetes the TSH and prolactin rhythm was maintained, whereas other hormones of the anterior pituitary showed no significant rhythm. In the course of one-day normalization of glycemia by means of Biostator the TSH and prolactin rhythm was maintained, whereas the circadian rhythm of growth hormone and ACTH levels appeared with acrophase at 18.47 and 19.59 hour, respectively. The LH rhythm did not exist, whereas the FSH rhythm was dubious. One may assume that noncompensated diabetes results in the impairment of certain pituitary hormonal rhythms and these disturbances are reversible after restoring of normoglycemia.

RIA system programming by means of kinetic parameters.

Insulin-125I antibody reaction was optimized by physical-chemical parameters. After the activation energies Ea and Ed for association and dissociation, respectively were calculated from the experimental data, the theoretical values of the reaction rate constants ka and kd were determined as well as equilibrium constants K. By means of the empirical formulae, the approximate incubation time for the RIA kit and maximal percent of insulin-125I binding to antibody (%B) in relation to temperature were computed. The proposed method may be applied to the new antigen-binder systems preparation (new antibodies, shortening of the incubation time, temperature changes, influence of different ions and kind of buffer).
