Effect of unilateral ureteral occlusion on fibrin deposition in the kidney and renal blood flow during intravascular coagulation in rat

The effect of unilateral ureteral occlusion on fibrin deposition in the kidney and the interrelation of the fibrin deposition and the renal blood flow was studied in rat. Intravascular coagulation in the kidney was induced by infusion of thrombin and inhibition of fibrinolysis with tranexamic acid. The effects unilateral occlusion of the ureter for 1 and 24 h on fibrin deposition and renal blood flow were studied. Fibrin in the kidneys was quantitated by intravenous injection of 125I-labelled fibrinogen 24 h before the experiment. The renal blood flow was measured before and after infusion of thrombin by injection of 85Sr- and 141Ce-labelled microspheres into the left ventricle. After ureteral occlusion for 1 h the deposition of fibrin in the kidneys was unaffected. After 24 h substantially less fibrin deposition was found in the occluded than in the unoccluded kidney (0.3 +/- 0.2 and 5.7 +/- 1.6 mg, respectively; p less than 0.05). Before thrombin infusion the blood flow to the occluded kidney was less than that in the unoccluded kidney (2.1 +/- 0.8 and 3.7 +/- 1.2 ml/min, 100 g body weight, respectively; p less than 0.05). The blood flow after infusion of thrombin was equally reduced in both kidneys. The results contradict the hypothesis that vasoconstriction increases the amount of fibrin in the kidneys in thrombin-induced intravascular coagulation.     

Manifestation of malignant lymphoma of the head and neck with special reference to the salivary glands

We found that thirteen per cent of all head and neck malignomas are malignant lymphomas. In 75% of these cases the Non-Hodgkin type could be found. The major salivary glands were involved by the lymphoma in 55% out of 104 patients. Paraglandular lymph nodes of the parotid gland were affected as well as intraglandular lymph nodes and the lymphoid tissue within the gland proper. The submandibular gland normally shows an involvement only with its paraglandular lymph nodes. Two thirds of the Non-Hodgkin lymphomas located in the salivary glands were low-grade. In case of clinical suspicion of a malignant lymphoma, fine needle biopsy is required for cytological diagnosis. However, surgery is mandatory for histological diagnosis, not as a therapeutic measure.     

A 62 kDa protein is photoaffinity labelled by [3H]felodipine in vascular smooth muscle, but not in cardiac and skeletal muscle

Irradiation of a cytosolic fraction from vascular smooth muscle in the presence of [3H]felodipine resulted in the labelling of a protein with an apparent molecular weight of 62 kDa. The labelling was seen on UV-irradiation at 360 nm, but not at 254, 278 or at wavelengths above 410 nm. The photolabelling was enhanced in the absence of oxygen. In cytosolic fractions prepared from porcine liver, cardiac and skeletal muscle no photoaffinity labelling of proteins between 90 and 45 kDa could be demonstrated. The results suggest that felodipine is a photoaffinity ligand and that felodipine binds to a soluble protein present in vascular smooth muscle but not in the other tissues tested.     

Sonography in congenital dislocation of the hip

A new technique for ultrasonic examination of the hip joint was evaluated in neonatals and infants. An anterior approach was used with the sound sector centered over the femoral head and parallel to the femoral neck. The ultrasonograms corresponded to lateral radiographs of the joint with the leg in Lorenz' first position. It was possible to evaluate the size and depth of the acetabulum and the size and position of the femoral head. The projection also permitted a dynamic examination for determination of hip instability. Thus, the technique provided a method for an objective diagnosis in congenital dislocation of the hip (CDH). In 216 hips, the results of clinical evaluation for CDH were correlated with the degree of instability demonstrated by ultrasound. The comparison showed the clinical diagnosis to be highly inaccurate.     

Organisational justice and employee perceptions on hospital management.

PURPOSE: The purpose to clarify what kind of managerial challenges employees experience regarding organisational justice in hospitals. DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH: This exploratory study of 8,971 employees working in 14 hospitals and examines the concept of organisational justice in management with qualitative and quantitative methods. FINDINGS: An inductive content analysis of the comments revealed five integrative frames describing challenges in hospital management at respondents' workplaces. These frames should be regarded as major managerial challenges in hospitals. These findings illustrate important antecedents of organisational justice and suggest that work units tend to share the same perceptions of justice. They also reveal that individually produced comments reflect collective experiences in organisational justice. Further, the results indicate that problems in management and policies are often experienced in a complex way, and people making justice judgements do not separate procedural and interactional factors. RESEARCH LIMITATIONS/IMPLICATIONS: Although the commentators producing qualitative data represented many organisational hierarchy levels, the results should not be generalised to apply to horizontal, informal social relationships. PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS: This paper gives useful information regarding challenges in human resources management in hospitals. ORIGINALITY/VALUE: The paper suggests that people making fairness judgements do not make a distinction between procedural and interpersonal factors. Instead, they use any information available to judge the righteousness of the management events. This paper serves to guide hospital managers towards a better understanding of the importance of organisational justice and its collective nature.
