A Double Blind,Placebo-Controlled Trial of Ipriflavone for Prevention of Postmenopausal Spinal Bone Loss

One hundred ninety-eight postmenopausal women (aged 50–65 years) with vertebral bone density (VBD) 1 SD below the mean value for normal, age-matched, postmenopausal subjects were enrolled in six Italian centers and 134 completed 2 years of treatment. All subjects were randomly allocated to a 2-year treatment with oral ipriflavone (200 mg t.i.d.) or a matching placebo, according to a double-blind, parallel group design. All patients also received an oral daily calcium supplement of 1 g as calcium carbonate. VBD and markers of bone turnover were measured at baseline, and every 6 months. A complete routine analysis of liver and kidney functions along with hematological parameters were measured before and at the end of treatment period. The valid completers analysis showed a significant increase of VBD in ipriflavone-treated women with average percent changes of +1.4 after 1 year, and +1% at the end of treatment period (P < 0.05). The placebo group presented a significant decrease of VBD after 2 years of treatment (P < 0.05). The difference between treatments was significant (P < 0.01). The intention to treat analysis confirmed the significant decrease of VBD in the placebo group, with no changes in ipriflavone-treated women. Skeletal ALP significantly decreased in ipriflavone-treated women (P < 0.05). Serum BGP and urine HOP/Cr showed a significant decrease only in ipriflavone-treated women, suggesting an inhibitory effect on bone turnover rate. Adverse reactions, mainly gastrointestinal, occurred to a similar extent in the two treatment groups. The evaluation of patients' compliance, assessed by residual tablets count, revealed a drug intake of more than 80% after 2 years in 92.5% and 92.8% of patients treated with ipriflavone or placebo, respectively. This study demonstrates that ipriflavone can prevent bone loss in postmenopausal women with low bone mass. Received: 1 April 1996 / Accepted: 5 March 1997     

Influence of Bone Quality on Precision of Calcaneal Ultrasonometry

This study was designed to determine the changes in precision of the ultrasound parameters speed of sound (SOS), broadband ultrasound attenuation (BUA), and stiffness index (SI) as a function of bone quality. The instrument used in this investigation was the LUNAR Achilles. Of the 608 female patients who had paired measurements with repositioning, 200 had t scores ≥−1 and 408 had t scores ≤−2.5, thus rendering a normal and a grossly abnormal group for comparison of precision results. It was found that the median precision error (CV%) for BUA was 1.99% for normal bone and 1.44% for abnormal bone (P= 0.02). No significant difference was obtained between median precision errors in normal and abnormal bone for the parameters SOS and SI, which were 0.23% and 0.19%, and 2.15% and 2.02%, respectively. In the interquartile range, the mean precision errors for SOS and BUA were significantly different in normal and abnormal bone: SOS was 0.25% and 0.21%, respectively, and BUA was 2.31% and 1.85%, respectively. No significant change was registered for SI. Precision error appears to decrease slightly at lower values for calcaneal variables. Received: 21 August 1996 / Accepted: 5 March 1997     

Wirbelsäulenstabilisierung bei extraduraler Metastasenkrankheit Indikation und Verläufe bei 32 Patienten

Zweiunddrei?ig Patienten mit Metastasenkrankheit der Wirbels?ule, überwiegend von Mammakarzinomen und Plasmozytomen wurden über 41/2 Jahre operativ dekomprimiert und stabilisiert. Unter Einbeziehung von 5 früh Verstorbenen, betr?gt die mittlere überlebenszeit 9,5 Monate. Bei Entlassung der überlebenden aus station?rer Behandlung waren mit einer Ausnahme alle Patienten gehf?hig. In der Regel kamen Verbundosteosynthesen, bevorzugt der ventrale Zugang, zur Anwendung. Die pr?operative Embolisation war ein unverzichtbarer Bestandteil des Managements. Die operative Behandlung der Wirbels?ulenmetastasen ist eine segensreiche Methode, die in das gesamte Behandlungskonzept der bedauernswerten Patienten frühzeitig integriert werden sollte. Hochgradige Paresen oder Paralysen, insbesondere nach fudroyantem Verlauf, nicht kontrollierte Prim?rtumoren und spezielle Tumoren, z. B. das Bronchialkarzinom sowie gastrointestinale Karzinome, sind auch in der eigenen Serie indikatorisch eher kritisch zu sehen.      

Age-specific cerebral perfusion in 4- to 15-year-old children: a high-resolution brain SPET study using 99mTc-ECD

This study addresses the question of whether the normal range for distribution of local cerebral blood flow (lCBF) in adults can be transferred to the 4- to 15-year-old age group. Twenty-three children (age: 4–15 years; mean 11±3 years, group I) and 10 adults (age: 27–56 years; mean 45±10 years, group II) without evidence of cerebrovascular disease or other brain diseases underwent technetium-99m ethyl cysteinate dimer single-photon emission tomography. Counts in cortical and subcortical regions of interest (ROIs) were related to those in cerebellar ROIs (= 100%). Relative cortical activity in group I exceeded that in group II, particularly in left parietal (107.6%±9.8% vs 84.1%±12.4%), left frontal (97.7%±6.7% vs 79.4%±8.9%) and left temporal areas (99.7%±7.4% vs 84.9%±10.1%) and in the cingulate cortex (112.1%±9.1% vs 95.9%±10.1%, P<0.05). Cerebral activity uptake per injected dose was inversely correlated with age in 19 children of group I (r = –0.77, P<0.001). In group I, there was also an inverse correlation between age and the relative local count density in the parietal (r = –0.42 to –0.57), frontal (r = –0.48), temporal (r = –0.42 to –0.58) and occipital cortex (r = –0.44). In these cortical regions relative counts differed when subgroups of children aged 4–10 and 11–15 years were analysed. It is concluded that there are systematic differences between 4- to 15-year-old children and adults with regard to normal lCBF. Diagnostic use of perfusion agents has to consider age-adjusted normal flow maps; normal ranges should be determined separately for the age groups 4–10 and 11–15 years.

Responsiveness and calibration of the general well-being adjustment scale in patients with hypertension

We examined the discriminant ability and responsiveness of the General Well-Being Adjustment Scale in patients enrolled in a randomized clinical trial of antihypertensive therapy. We also tried to translate the effects of physical symptoms on general well-being. This secondary analysis used demographic, clinical, physical symptom, and general well-being data for 545 white, male hypertensive patients. General well-being was measured by the General Well-Being Adjustment Scale (GWB) collected on 2 occasions over 8 weeks of treatment. Patients with any one of 14 physical symptoms or problems, compared to those without symptoms, had lower GWB scores (p < 0.003 to p < 0.0001). Decreases of 2.83–8.76 points in GWB scores were observed in patients developing physical symptoms over the 8 week study period (p < 0.05 to p < 0.0001). These effects were demonstrated in patients developing cold sensitivity, sexual problems, chest pain, shortness of breath, loss of taste, nausea, hot or cold spells, numbness and tingling, dry mouth, blurred vision, and dizziness. We conclude that the GWB is responsive to clinically meaningful changes in symptoms and may provide a more complete evaluation of the effects of medical treatment. The GWB is a valid and responsive measure of health status outcomes in the evaluation of antihypertensive treatment.     

乳腺癌层粘连蛋白的免疫组织化学研究

本研究应用层粘连蛋白（ＬＮ）抗体，对２７例乳腺癌、５例乳腺良性病变进行了免疫组织化学研究。结果发现乳腺良性病变时，ＬＮ以均匀完整的线型阳性反应显示在乳腺导管及小叶基膜处。乳腺癌时，ＬＮ的染色表现为癌细胞胞浆内弥漫状阳性反应。２７例乳腺癌中，癌细胞ＬＮ染色强度不同，伴有转移的乳腺癌ＬＮ染色多数较强，强度在＋＋～的为７／１２（５８．３％）；不伴有转移的病例，ＬＮ染色多数较浅或为阴性，强度在＋＋～＋＋＋的病例为３／１５（２０％）。说明癌细胞内源性ＬＮ染色强弱与肿瘤转移密切相关，内源性ＬＮ的合成可能改变肿瘤细胞的浸润活性。
