Abstract
We noticed that arterial oxygen saturation by pulse oximetry (SpO2) was generally lower when determined by the Ohmeda Biox 3700 pulse oximeter than when determined by the Nellcor N-100 pulse oximeter, and we investigated whether this finding was consistent and the reason for the discrepancy. We placed both oximeters simultaneously on 30 infants with indwelling arterial catheters and measured arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), percentage of fetal hemoglobin, and complete cooximetry, including arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) with a Radiometer OSM-3 cooximeter, with and without correction for fetal hemoglobin levels, in four samples of blood from each infant during a 12-hour period for a total of 120 samples. The Nellcor SpO2 was consistently higher than the Ohmeda SpO2 by a mean (+/- SD) of 1.61% +/- 2.69% (p < 0.001). The Nellcor SpO2 correlated best with functional SaO2 (oxyhemoglobin (HbO2)/(HbO2 + reduced hemoglobin)) x 100); Ohmeda SpO2 correlated best with fractional SaO2 (HbO2/(HbO2 + reduced hemoglobin + carboxyhemoglobin + methemoglobin)) x 100), reflecting a fundamental difference in the calibration algorithms used in the two instruments. A desired PaO2 of 50 to 100 mm Hg, is maintained when the range of SpO2 is 90% to 96% for Ohmeda SpO2 and 92% to 98% for Nellcor SpO2 in the neonate, giving a positive predictive value in this study of 94% to 95%. We conclude that SpO2 determined by pulse oximeters of different brands is not interchangeable, and this may be of clinical importance in predicting PaO2 on the basis of SpO2.

Abstract
Scientific dishonesty has been the subject of much public interest in recent years. Although the problem has had a low profile in Denmark, there is no reason to believe that it is non-existent. Several preconditions known to be important prevail here as well as in other countries, such as pressure to publish and severe competition for research grants and senior academic positions. The Danish Medical Research Council (DMRC) decided to respond to this problem by preparing a report on scientific dishonesty with suggestions to the research institutions on rules for good scientific practice and procedures for investigation of suspected dishonesty. To this end, an investigatory system was suggested. The system should consist of two regional committees and one national committee. They should be headed by high court judges and experienced health sciences researchers as members. The committees will investigate cases reported to them and conclude on whether dishonesty has been established and on whether the scientific work should be retracted. Sanctions shall remain the task of the institutions. Preventive measures comprise open access to and a long storage period for scientific data.

Abstract
Podophyllotoxin (1) in buffered ethanolic solution is degraded by two pathways. One leads to (a) picropodophyllin (2), which undergoes dehydration to give alpha-apopicropodophyllin (5), which rearranges to give beta-apopicropodophyllin (6), (b) the ethyl ether of picropodophyllotoxin, 8, and (c) the ethyl ether of epipicropodophyllotoxin, 7. The other pathway leads directly to epipodophyllotoxin (10) and the corresponding ethyl ether, 9, and possibly, via a transient 3,4-dehydropodophyllotoxin (5'), to beta-apopicropodophyllin (6). The 1H NMR spectra of these compounds are described, their in vitro cytostatic activity compared, and their syntheses, including that of podophyllotoxin ethyl ether, reported.

Abstract
Formulations of 3-acetyl-4''-isovaleryl tylosin (AIV) were evaluated for oral efficacy in a Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG) airsacculitis infection. AIV administered by gavage, feed, or water was more effective than tylosin in preventing airsacculitis. An AIV tartrate formulation administered in drinking water to chickens infected with a macrolide-sensitive or macrolide-resistant strain of MG resulted in no detection of mycoplasma in the air sacs and in MG-negative sera.

Abstract
Gamma-camera imaging of the abdomen after injection of autologous 111In-labelled platelets was applied for localization of gastrointestinal bleeding in a study of 22 patients. In 15 studies showing scintigraphic signs of bleeding, the clinical presentation included occult bleeding in 6, melaena in 4, and bloody stools in 5. Scintigraphy could be done repeatedly for up to 1 week after a single tracer injection. The time interval between the injection and scintigraphic visualization of bleeding ranged from 10 min to 68 h, being longest in cases of occult bleeding. In most cases the scintigraphic findings were supported by other diagnostic modalities, including surgical removal of presumed sources of bleeding. In seven studies without scintigraphic signs of bleeding a probable source of bleeding was identified by other means in one patient. The 111In-platelet method seems to be a promising method for localization of gastrointestinal bleeding which may prove particularly useful in cases of occult or recurrent bleeding.

Abstract
Beta adrenoceptor density, measured by radioligand binding techniques, is reportedly much higher in atrial than in ventricular myocardium of patients with mitral valve disease. In the present study adenylate cyclase activity, both basal and in response to beta adrenergic agonists and sodium fluoride, in biopsy preparations from these same patients was significantly lower in atrial than in ventricular tissue when stimulated with either isoproterenol, noradrenaline, isoproterenol combined with terbutaline, or sodium fluoride. Terbutaline stimulated and basal adenylate cyclase activity was not significantly different in the two cardiac regions. The ratios of receptor density to isoproterenol stimulated and to sodium fluoride stimulated adenylate cyclase activity were 4-5 times higher in atrial than in ventricular biopsy specimens. Thus ventricular beta receptors, although present in comparatively low concentrations, are coupled to considerably more catalytic moieties of the receptor-adenylate cyclase complex than their atrial counterparts. The reason for this is probably a relative lack of coupling proteins (N components) in atrial tissue. A weak positive correlation between receptor density and isoproterenol stimulated adenylate cyclase activity was found in atrial but not in ventricular tissue. This may indicate individual variation in receptor-adenylate cyclase coupling. Furthermore, no correlation was found between atrial and ventricular values for any variable. One reason for this may be the different haemodynamic stresses in the two cardiac chambers.

Abstract
The effect of serotonin on pentagastrin-stimulated gastric pepsin secretion in dogs was evaluated with regard to dose-response kinetics and receptor mediation. The pepsin secretion showed a dual response to exogenous serotonin. The high and low doses of serotonin stimulated, whereas the doses in between inhibited. The inhibition was of a non-competitive type and could be significantly counteracted by beta-adrenergic blocking drugs. This study supports the concept that the serotonin effect on gastric functions is mediated via sympathetic nerves releasing noradrenaline.

Abstract
The effects of serotonin on pentagastrin- and bethanechol-stimulated gastric mucosal blood flow (GMBF) and acid secretion were evaluated. Conscious gastric fistula dogs were used, with neutral red clearance as the method to estimate the mucosal blood flow. Serotonin inhibited the acid secretion, with a counteracting effect of propranolol and methysergide. Serotonin inhibited the pentagastrin- and bethanechol-stimulated GMBF after 15 min of infusion. The ratio between GMBF and acid secretion was increased during serotonin infusion, which suggests primary and independent changes in both variables. Propranolol and methysergide counteracted the serotonin inhibition of the GMBF. It may be concluded from this study that the acid-inhibitory effect of serotonin is not mediated by changes in the GMBF. The actions of serotonin on acid secretion and GMBF are mediated by specific receptors.

Abstract
The total quantity of beta-adrenoceptors and the relative amount of beta 1 and beta 2 receptor subtypes were determined in heart biopsies of 10 patients with various heart diseases and 5 patients suffering from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HOCM). In membrane particle preparations from the same patients we also examined the activity of the adenylate cyclase (AC), and its response to isoprenaline, terbutaline, histamine and sodium fluoride (NaF). The high affinity ligand [125I] (1)-cyanopindolol (CYP) was used in the binding assays, and the highly beta 2-selective antagonist ICI 118 551 for the determination of beta-adrenoceptor subtypes. No differences were found in total beta-adrenoceptor density between patients with HOCM and "controls" (27.6 +/- 14.2 vs 26.5 +/- 10.7 fmol . mg-1 protein). The relative amounts of beta 1 and beta 2 receptor subtypes were similar, patients with HOCM had 82.1 +/- 4.9% of beta 1 and 14.4 +/- 3.9% of the beta 2 receptor subtype, compared with 76.3 +/- 11.5% of beta 1 and 20.7 +/- 11.0% of the beta 2 subtype in the "control" patients. Both absolute activity of AC (pmol . mg-1 protein . min) as well as the relative responses to the various stimulators were not significantly different between the two groups. Thus, this study does not support the hypothesis that HOCM is a disorder with altered beta-adrenoceptor number or adenylate cyclase response to adrenergic agonists. Furthermore, HOCM is not associated with altered response of the AC system to histamine or NaF.

Abstract
The effects of exogenous serotonin on pentagastrin-stimulated gastric acid secretion and antral motility were evaluated with regard to inhibition kinetics and receptor mediation. Conscious gastric fistula dogs were used. Serotonin inhibited the acid secretion dose-dependently, whereas the antral motility was initially stimulated and thereafter inhibited. The inhibition of secretion was counteracted by different beta-adrenergic blocking drugs and methysergide, whereas the inhibition of antral motility was blocked by methysergide and indomethacin. Dose-response analysis showed inhibition of non-competitive types. This study supports the concept of differences in the regulation of gastric acid secretion and motility, but further experiments with simultaneous registration are required.

Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of somatostatin on gastric acid secretion and gastric antral motility in conscious dogs with gastric fistula. Infusion of bethanechol stimulated dose-dependently acid secretion, whereas the frequency and strength of antral motility was maintained at a high level. Somatostatin inhibited dose-dependently the stimulated acid secretion, whereas the effect on antral motility was more complex, acting especially on the amplitude of the contractions. The effects of somatostatin were not altered by using alpha-adrenergic, beta-adrenergic, dopaminergic, and serotonergic blocking drugs. The dose-response kinetics with four doses of bethanechol with and without somatostatin showed inhibition of a non-competitive type for gastric acid secretion and of a competitive type for antral motility with regard to amplitude.

Abstract
The need for surgical intervention in duodenal ulcer disease will undoubtedly decrease in the years to come. Occasional failure of medical treatment and persistent doubts about the long-term safety of anti-ulcer drugs will continue to make operation the treatment of choice for some patients, however. Long-term medical treatment and surgery can be considered equally acceptable options for most patients. When operation is considered necessary, parietal cell vagotomy fits the requirements of a modern surgical method better than other techniques. The effective medical treatment now available makes postoperative recurrence of ulcer less important than before and lack of postoperative symptoms has replaced fear of recurrent ulceration as the main concern in the value judgement of both doctors and patients.

Abstract
The effect of somatostatin on pepsin secretion was determined in six dogs with gastric fistulas during stimulation with bethanechol. Somatostatin inhibited dose-dependently the stimulated pepsin secretion, with a dose of 0.3 micrograms/kg/h being 35% inhibitory during stimulation with bethanechol, 80 micrograms/kg/h. Continuous infusion of somatostatin for 3 h did not cause any signs of tachyphylaxis. Withdrawal of somatostatin produced a return to the control level. The dose-response kinetics with five doses of bethanechol with and without somatostatin showed inhibition of a noncompetitive type. The effects of somatostatin were not altered by using adrenergic, dopaminergic, or serotonergic blocking drugs.

Abstract
We have examined the binding capacity and properties (affinity, specificity) of LH and prolactin (Prl) receptors in a transplantable rat Leydig cell tumor (H-540) grown in intact, castrated and hypophysectomized rats. LH receptors in adult rat testis and Prl receptors in the rat ventral prostate were examined simultaneously for comparison. The results can be summarized as follows: The qualitative properties (affinity, specificity) of LH and Prl receptors in tumor Leydig cells appear to be identical to those of corresponding receptors in non-tumor tissues. The levels of LH receptors in tumor Leydig cells are only some 1% of that present in normal Leydig cells from adult rats. Tumor Leydig cells grown in hypophysectomized rats had even lower levels of LH receptors; ca. 1/3 of that found in tumors from intact rats. The levels of Prl receptors in the tumor Leydig cells are almost as high as in normal Leydig cells from adult rats. In tumors grown in hypophysectomized rats, the levels of Prl receptors were much lower (ca. 20%) than in tumors from intact or castrated rats. There were great variations in the number of LH and Prl receptors in individual tumors, and there was a positive correlation (r = 0.88; P less than 0.01) between LH and Prl receptors in individual tumors. No differentiation toward a "LH receptor tumor" or "Prl receptor tumor" was observed. Thus, receptors for LH and Prl in tumor cells are qualitatively normal, but the number is greatly (LH) or moderately (Prl) reduced. These receptors in the tumor Leydig cells are stimulated by pituitary hormones.
