Functional outcome and general health status in patients after arthroscopic release in adhesive capsulitis

Frozen shoulder is said to be a self-limiting entity but full recovery often takes more than 2 years. For that, most patients are unwilling to tolerate painful restriction while awaiting resolution. We prospectively investigated 30 patients (16 women, 14 men) for the outcome of arthroscopic capsular release in idiopathic frozen shoulder. Results were determined by the assessment of subjective and objective parameters to estimate both shoulder function and general health status. Symptoms persisted without improvement for a minimum of 6 months of conservative treatment. Preoperative average American shoulder and elbow surgeons score (ASES) was 35, visual analog scale (VAS) to measure pain was 7, and simple shoulder test (SST) was 4. Mean scores of the physical component of SF-36 were considerably reduced. Mean forward elevation was 85°, average abduction was 70°, mean internal rotation was 15°, and mean external rotation was 10°. Patients were followed-up at 6 weeks, 3, 6, 12 months and by a mean of 36 months. Range of motion for all planes improved (P < 0.05). Median VAS reduced to 2, average ASES increased to 91, and SST enhanced to a mean of 10 (P < 0.05). We stated improvement of the physical components in the SF-36 questionnaire in particular bodily pain and the role-physical score. There were no significant differences between the measurements in the early postoperative phase compared to the mid-term follow-up (P > 0.05). Our results demonstrate that arthroscopic release of refractory idiopathic frozen shoulder combined with a gentle manipulation provides reliable expectations for improvement in both clinical and general health status for most patients. We recommend the use of a limb-specific and a general-health-status questionnaire to conclude the benefit of the surgical intervention and contribute the optimization of a therapy concept more effectively.

The expression of somatostatin receptors 1 and 2 in benign,pre‐malignant and malignant laryngeal lesions

The expression of somatostatin receptors 1 and 2 in benign, pre‐malignant and malignant laryngeal lesions The role of chemotherapy in squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx has not been clearly defined. Whilst toxic chemotherapy regimes may confer a marginal improvement in survival, surgery and radiotherapy remain the mainstay of treatment. Somatostatin is a naturally occurring peptide, which exerts antiproliferative and antiangiogenic effects via five membrane‐bound receptor subtypes. The expression of somatostatin receptor subtypes (SSTRs) 1 and 2 was studied in benign, pre‐malignant and malignant laryngeal specimens. Epithelial expression of SSTR1 was detected in 4/6 (67%) Reinke's oedema, 5/6 (83%) pre‐malignant and 8/12 (67%) malignant specimens, with virtually no stromal or vascular expression. High levels of epithelial SSTR2 expression were noted in all Reinke's oedema specimens, compared with low‐to‐moderate levels in only 2/6 (33%) pre‐malignant and 3/12 (25%) malignant specimens (P < 0.01). This ‘loss’ of epithelial SSTR2 expression may provide a growth advantage in pre‐malignant and malignant laryngeal lesions. Vascular expression of SSTR2 was ubiquitous in all groups, with scant stromal expression. Overall, most (>80%) pre‐malignant and malignant laryngeal specimens expressed at least one of the two SSTR subtypes studied. Somatostatin analogues may have a therapeutic role in squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx.

Corticosterone release in response to repeated, short episodes of neonatal isolation : evidence of sensitization

Repeated isolation of neonatal rats produces persistent changes in physiology and behavior. In Experiment 1, we examined changes in plasma corticosterone (CORT) levels as a possible mechanism for the effects of isolation. Pups that were isolated from their mother and the nest for 1 h per day on postnatal days (PND) 2–9 were compared to control litters of pups that were either nonhandled or handled but not isolated. On PND 2, compared to nonhandled pups, handled pups had elevated CORT levels that returned to baseline levels within 30 to 60 min of return to the home cage. No significant elevation of CORT levels were found in handled pups on PND 9. The CORT levels of isolated pups were over twice those of nonhandled pups on PND 2 and four times those of nonhandled pups on PND 9. In Experiment 2, we investigated whether the increased CORT release in response to isolation on PND 9 was the result of the pups treatment on the previous six days as against an effect of maturation. Plasma CORT levels were measured in rat pups that were either isolated, handled or nonhandled on PNDs 2–8 during the conditions of isolation, handling and nonhandling on PND 9. There were no differences among the groups in basal plasma levels of CORT. Handling on PND 9 did not result in elevated CORT levels in any of the groups. All three groups showed a significant increase in plasma CORT levels after isolation on PND 9. However, the CORT response to isolation of pups previously isolated on PND 2–8 were significantly higher than pups that were either handled or nonhandled on PNDs 2–8. Thus, daily episodes of isolation potentiate the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal response to stress.     

Pharmacological modulation of endogenous dopamine and DOPAC outflow from nucleus accumbens

The release of endogenous DA and DOPAC from nucleus accumbens slices were studied measuring net outflow of DA and DOPAC in the superfusate of static chambers, to analyze the correlation between DA and DOPAC outflows and identify which DA stores may serve as possible sources for DOPAC formation. Under resting conditions, or following stimulation with low (< 15 mM) KCl concentration, DOPAC outflow was greater than DA. When DA release was stimulated by higher (> 25 mM) KCl concentrations, DA outflow increased, proportionally more than DOPAC. In the virtual absence of Ca²⁺ in the Krebs solution DA outflow, induced by 25 mM KCl, was reduced to about 10%, while DOPAC outflow was only reduced to 45%. When the synthesis of DA was inhibited with -MPT, DA and DOPAC outflow were unchanged during the first stimulation period. During a second stimulation period, however, their outflow were significantly reduced. Nomifensine, a DA uptake inhibitor, increased the basal DA outflow by about 100%, but only blocked DOPAC basal outflow by about 25%. The 25 mM KCl stimulated DA outflow was not affected by Nomifensine, while the stimulated DOPAC outflow was reduced by about 50%. These results demonstrate that there is a weak correlation between the outflows of DA and DOPAC, suggesting a complex relationship between the mobilization of the different DA pools and DOPAC outflow. The formation of DOPAC from some of these pools, appear to be dependent on the stimulation levels and on the pharmacological manipulation of the tissue.

Diadenosine polyphosphate (ApxA) as new neurotransmitters

The presence of diadenosine polyphosphates (Ap_xA), diadenosine tetraphosphate (Ap₄A), diadenosine pentaphosphate (Ap₆A), and diadenosine hexaphosphate (Ap₆A), has been described in secretory granules of chromaffin cells, Torpedo synaptic vesicles, and rat brain synaptosomes. The release of these compounds by the action of secretagogues and depolarizing agents, in the presence of calcium, increases their importance as active neurotransmitters. Two high affinity receptors have been described in the three neural models, with Kd values ranging from 0.08 to 0.40 nM for the first binding site and from 5.6 to 18nM for the second lower affinity binding site. Both binding sites exhibit a P_2y-like profile in chromaffin cells and Torpedo synaptic terminals and a different pattern in rat brain synaptosomes, suggesting the presence of a novel P₂-purinoceptor tentatively named P_2d. Studies about the second messenger linked to this receptor, in chromaffin cells, demonstrate the mobilization of calcium from internal stores. Ap_xA receptors at the extracellular milieu are responsible for the inhibition of catecholamine release stimulated by secretagogues. Finally, all diadenosine polyphosphates are destroyed by the action of an ecto-phosphodiesterase which, in chromaffin cells, shows Km values ranging from 1 to 4 μM. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
