Abstract
The correlation between sperm motion characteristics and in vitro fertilization was studied in 160 cycles, divided in two groups: those with male subfertility (N=42) and those with tubal disease (N=118). The group with male subfertility showed inferior performance, as indicated by a lower fertilization rate per oocyte (40% versus 66%) and per pick-up cycle (67% versus 93%). These two groups exhibited no significant difference in the mean sperm velocity, linearity, amplitude of lateral head displacement, and beat cross frequency in the pre swim-up and post swim-up specimens. The two groups differed in pre and post swim-up sperm motility, pre and post swim-up concentration, pre swim-up cumulative velocity at 110 to 140 Amicrom/sec and post swim-up cumulative velocity at 130 microm/sec. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine those variables that would predict fertilization; pre swim-up count and post swim-up motility proved to be the significant determinants. The results indicate that assessment of motion by automated semen analyzers does not supplement conventional semen analysis in the ability to predict fertilization.

Abstract
Despite our increasing ability to manage rheumatoid arthritis through systemic medication, refractory joints require local administration of more aggressive therapy in a substantial number of patients. These studies tested whether a new class of molecules designated Zyn-Linkers could deliver and retain therapeutics in a joint. Zyn-Linkers are synthetic lipid-like molecules designed to insert into cell membranes and enhance drug delivery to cells. After intra-articular injection into the knee of NZW rabbits, Zyn-Linkers bound rapidly and homogenously to synovial lining cells. Chelating Zyn-Linkers which contained Re-186 or Y-90 were synthesized to evaluate localization and retention after intra-articular injection. Initial studies using Re-186 Zyn-Linker gave excellent localization as evaluated by whole-body imaging: counts in the knee region represented > 90% of counts present in the whole body for at least 4-6 days postinjection. Similar results were obtained using a Y-90 Zyn-Linker and this agent was used for biodistribution studies due to its greater stability and ease of preparation. Efficacy and safety of Y-90 Zyn-Linker as a potential radiation synovectomy agent were estimated by extrapolation of biodistribution data to humans. A therapeutically effective dose of 8,000 cGy to synovium was calculated to require intra-articular injection of 3.4 mCi Y-90 Zyn-Linker, a value less than or equal to doses of particulate Y-90 agents used clinically in Europe. The predicted safety profile for Y-90 Zyn-Linker was excellent, with estimated doses to nontarget organs and tissues falling well within FDA-recommended safety levels for research-only radiopharmaceuticals. In addition to exhibiting desirable localization and retention properties, Zyn-Linkers may also be synthesized to release antirheumatic drugs such as methotrexate at controlled rates. This suggests substantial potential for these drug delivery molecules as chemical synovectomy agents which may be used concurrently with systemic chemotherapy to improve management of refractory joints.

Abstract
During the five year period from 1987G to 1991G, 161 kidney transplantations were performed at King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre (KFSH&RC); 79 from cadaveric donors (CD) and 82 from living related donors (LRD). All cadaveric kidneys except one were harvested within Saudi Arabia and 67% were from Saudi nationals. The immunosuppresive protocol was a triple drug regimen comprising cyclosporin-A (CyA), azathioprine (Aza), and prednisone. The actuarial graft survival rates at one and three years were 85% and 76% for the cadaveric donor transplants and 96% and 91%, respectively for the living related donor transplants (P<0.01). The corresponding patient survival rates for cadaveric donor transplants (CDTxs) were 97% and 94% and for the living related donor transplants (LRDTxs), 99% and 97% (NS). These results compare well with the best results in the Western world. The most serious surgical complications were vascular thromboses (five cases) and infections of the arterial anastomosis line with bleeding (two cases), all leading to loss of the cadaveric graft. The most common causes of death were virus infection, varicella, cytomegalovirus, and hepatitis B and C. The organ donation rate, from cadaveric donors as well as living related donors, is stil low in Saudi Arabia. Lack of organs is the main obstacle to an expansion of this promising transplantation activity. Continuous education of the multinational medical profession as well as the lay population is necessary to improve the situation.

Abstract
Incubation of human neutrophils with human immunoglobulin (Ig) E caused dose-dependent inhibition of adhesion, phagocytosis, secretion of myeloperoxidase, and oxygen radical production. The concentrations of IgE that caused 50% inhibition of adhesion, phagocytosis, and secretion were 2 +/- 0.3, 2.16 +/- 0.21, and 1.95 +/- 0.28 ng/ml, respectively. Oxidase activation as measured by luminol-dependent chemiluminescence by the receptor-mediated N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, or the particulate stimulus Staphylococcus aureus was inhibited by IgE with concentrations causing 50% effect of 1.2 +/- 0.13, 1.09 +/- 0.16, and 0.6 +/- 0.09 ng/ml, respectively. IgE also inhibited oxygen consumption rate and cytochrome c reduction with similar K0.5 values. The effect of IgE was unlikely to be due to nonspecific cytotoxicity because trypan blue exclusion test and the cytoplasmic marker lactate dehydrogenase revealed that the cells retained their viability after IgE treatment. Similar or higher concentrations of IgG invoked either no inhibition or a slight enhancement of neutrophil functions. Pretreatment of neutrophils with IgG failed to affect the IgE-induced inhibition. Because the effect of IgE occurs at concentrations less than those reported in hyperimmunoglobulinemia E, we propose that direct inhibition of neutrophil functions may underlie the pathogenesis of recurrent infection associated with hyperimmunoglobulinemia E.

Abstract
A 20-month-old infant with "silvery-blond" hair color, widespread confettilike depigmentation of the skin, and mental retardation was found to have, in lymphocytes and fibroblast cultures, increased spontaneous chromosome breaks and breaks induced by both mitomycin and gamma-irradiation. The sister chromatid exchange frequency was normal. This child probably represents a new chromosome breakage syndrome.

Abstract
We fractionated the whole human seminal plasma on DEAE Sephadex A-50 ion exchange columns. Complete separation was achieved in seven peaks using different salt concentrations in phosphate buffer pH 6. The seminal plasma proteins were separated by sodium dodecyl-sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Human seminal plasma (SP) and its fractions were used in mixed lymphocyte reaction in vitro. Fractions 3, 4, and 7 were found to suppress the proliferation of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells to phytohemagglutinin and pokweed mitogen at a concentration of 10 micrograms ml-1 while stimulatory effect was observed at lower concentrations (1 microgram and 2.5 micrograms ml-1). Whole human SP and other fractions failed to suppress the proliferation of lymphocytes in vitro. Furthermore, the effect of human SP and its fractions was also investigated on phagocytic function of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) using luminol dependent chemiluminescence assay stimulated with phorbol myristate acetate and opsonized yeast. Fractionated SP was found to have a suppressive effect on the luminol-dependent chemiluminescence of PMNs in the whole blood.

Abstract
Ninety-three patients with PTE (that is, hematocrit 51% or greater) were identified among 431 renal transplant recipients, an incidence of 21.6%. Thirty-eight patients underwent blood volume measurements, and 22 of these had high red cell volume and therefore were considered to have true PTE. To analyze factors predictive of erythrocytosis, a control group with normal hematocrit was randomly selected from our renal transplant population and compared with the 93 patients with PTE, and with the 22 who had true PTE. Using step-wise logistic regression analysis, we identified three variables that were consistent predictors of PTE. In order of significance, the serum creatinine value at the onset of PTE appears to most strongly predict the occurrence of PTE (P less than 0.0001). As creatinine value increases, the probability of PTE decreases. Next was immunosuppression, where double immunosuppressive therapy was associated with a greater probability of PTE than triple therapy (P less than 0.0001). The overall incidence of PTE in patients on double therapy was 34%, while that for those on triple therapy 10.4%. Last was duration of dialysis for which increasing values correspond to increasing probability of PTE (P = 0.004). Comparison of the serum erythropoietin (EPO) levels for patients and controls yielded a nonsignificant result (P = 0.2507 and P = 0.383 for all patients with PTE and true PTE, respectively), and therefore EPO levels were inappropriately elevated for the level of hematocrit in the PTE group. Only the number of rejections and duration of follow-up (r = -0.3507) were significantly correlated with EPO (P less than 0.05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
To determine whether endotoxemia and release of tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha) and/or interleukin 1 alpha (IL-1 alpha) are involved in the pathogenesis of heatstroke, 17 adult patients with a mean rectal temperature of 42.1 +/- 0.2 degrees C were studied. Blood samples were taken on admission and after cooling was completed. TNF-alpha and IL-1 alpha levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) content was measured by the chromogenic substrate modification of the Limulus amebocyte lysate. TNF-alpha, IL-1 alpha, and LPS were elevated in all patients [199 +/- 25 (SE) pg/ml, 480.5 +/- 68.3 pg/ml, and 8.60 +/- 1.19 ng/ml, respectively, compared with normal control values of 31.4 +/- 8.4 pg/ml, 53.7 +/- 5.32 pg/ml, and less than 9 pg/ml]. There was no significant correlation between temperature and the circulating concentration of TNF-alpha, IL-1 alpha, and LPS. Postcooling TNF-alpha, IL-1 alpha, and LPS concentrations were significantly decreased but still above normal control values. The findings suggest that these mediators may have a role in the pathogenesis of heatstroke that could change the strategy of management.

Abstract
A consecutive series of 55 Saudi women with abnormal 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) during pregnancy was reinvestigated 2-4 months after delivery. A 75 g OGTT was done and samples were also drawn for analysis of C-peptide concentration, islet cells antibodies (ICA) and HLA antigens. The results of these laboratory investigations and a number of patient characteristics were analyzed to identify risk factors for patients likely to have impaired OGTT after delivery. Twenty-five (45.5%) of the patients had an abnormal OGTT after delivery. The distribution of HLA antigen frequencies did not differ from a reference group of healthy Saudis. ICA were found in only one patient. Logistic regression analysis identified insulin treatment during pregnancy (p = 0.001) as the only factor to predict an abnormal OGTT after delivery.

Abstract
Between September 1975 and November 1986, 263 renal transplant recipients at the King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center were followed; 82 procedures were done by the authors using live related donors. Among the 263 patients, 14 cases of Kaposi's sarcoma were identified, an incidence of 5.3 percent compared with an incidence of 0.4 percent in renal transplant recipients from Western countries. In addition, two more patients had other types of tumors. Thus, Kaposi's sarcoma represents 87.5 percent of tumors in the King Faisal Hospital renal transplant population, in contrast to 3.7 percent in the Cincinnati Transplant Tumor Registry. The mean period between transplantation and diagnosis of Kaposi's sarcoma was 12.5 months (range, one to 37 months). Eleven patients were Saudis and three were other Arab nationals. Seven of the 11 Saudi patients were from the southwestern region of the country. Cytomegalovirus titers were not elevated in six of 10 patients. Results of tests for human immunodeficiency virus were negative in seven of eight patients. HLA-A2 antigen frequency was significantly increased in the King Faisal Hospital renal transplant patients with Kaposi's sarcoma as compared with a control population (83.3 percent versus 43.6 percent, p value = 0.006 [P = 0.06 with Bonferroni adjustment]), and increased, though nonsignificantly, compared with the live related kidney transplant recipients without Kaposi's sarcoma (83.3 percent versus 49.4 percent, p value = 0.058 [P = 0.58 with Bonferroni adjustment]), suggesting a genetic predisposition to Kaposi's sarcoma in these patients.

Abstract
Synthetic substrates have recently been developed for the assay of several of the proteolytic enzymes required for blood coagulation, One of these substrates, S-2238, is specific for thrombin and hence can also be used to measure antithrombin-heparin co-factor (AT-III). The thrombin remaining after neutralization by AT-III cleaves a chromophore, p-nitroaniline, from the substrate, which can then te quantified in a spectrophotometer. This new assay for AT-III inhibitory activity was evaluated for normal subjects and for patients who had certain pathologic conditions associated with reduced levels of AT-III. Results from this assay were compared with those from AT-III assays by Laurell immunoelectrophoresis (an immunologic method) and antithrombin inhibition of factor Xa (a biologic clotting method). The chromogenic assay using S-2238 was found to be sensitive, accurate, and easy to perform; its results for both normal subjects and patients correlated extremely well with those of the immunologic and factor Xa inhibition assays (r = 0.94-0.98). Measurement of AT-III using this synthetic substrate should be a valuable addition to routine assays in a clinical coagulation laboratory. These and future substrates may prove extremely useful for assays of factors involved in blood coagulation and fibrinolysis.
