Abstract
Group B beta-haemolytic Streptococcus (GBS) may cause severe septic shock and death in neonates, whereas this is rarely the case in adults. As impaired red blood cell (RBC) deformability might disturb microcirculation in septic shock, the in vitro effects of GBS (1.7 x 10(8) cfu/ml) on RBC deformation (rheoscope) and haemolysis were studied in blood from preterm infants, term neonates, and adults. Furthermore, RBC deformation was studied in term neonates with GBS sepsis. RBC deformation at a shear stress of 4 Pa decreased significantly within 5 minutes of GBS incubation in preterm infants (-13%) and term neonates (-9%). In adults RBC deformation did not change during the first 15 minutes, but decreased significantly after 30 (-10%) and 60 minutes (-13%). In the term infants there was little further decrease in RBC deformation between 5 and 60 minutes of GBS incubation; RBC deformation in preterm infants decreased by 19% after 60 minutes compared with the preincubation values. RBC deformation in septic neonates was significantly decreased at shear stresses of 1, 2, and 3 Pa (-19%, -18%, and -9%). Sixty minutes of incubation of RBC from adults and neonates with GBS and without GBS resulted in haemolysis below 4%. It is concluded that neither neonatal nor adult RBC are haemolysed by GBS. In vitro, neonatal RBC deformability is more impaired than that in adults. This may contribute to the high risk of neonates for compromised microcirculation and circulatory shock as a result of GBS sepsis.

Abstract
The clinical significance of micro-organisms in semen samples of asymptomatic subfertile patients is a matter of constant debate. Usually little attention is paid to anaerobic bacteria as they are sensitive to transportation and culturing, and differentiation is difficult, costly and time-consuming. In the present study, special screening was carried out for anaerobes in ejaculates in addition to the routine microbial cultures of genital secretions of both partners. In addition to standard semen analysis and evaluation of sperm ability to penetrate cervical mucus (CM) in vivo (post-coital testing) and in vitro using a standardized test system, semen samples from 126 randomly chosen males of couples with a median duration of infertility of 4 years were examined for colonization with anaerobic bacteria. All couples were without clinical signs or symptoms of genital tract infection. The special care taken for anaerobic growth in semen samples gave a high rate of positive cultures and showed that nearly all ejaculates (99%) were colonized with anaerobic micro-organisms, and potentially pathogenic species were found in 71% of men. This rate was more than four times higher than that obtained with routine cultures and standard transportation (16%). Anaerobic bacterial growth of > or = 10(6) colony forming units (CFU)/ml was seen in 42% (total range 10(3)-10(8) CFU/ ml). In addition, aerobic growth was found in 96% (> or = 10(6) CFU/ml in 21%), potentially pathogenic species in 61% of semen specimens. There were no marked differences in the prevalence of anaerobic micro-organisms in patients with reduced or normal sperm count, motility or morphology. Nor was there any significant difference in anaerobic colonization between samples with impaired or good ability to penetrate CM of female partners (in vivo or in vitro), or the CM of fertile donors in the in-vitro sperm-cervical mucus penetration test (SCMPT) in this asymptomatic group of patients. There was no clear association between microbial colonization and subsequent fertility in vivo within an observation period of 6 months. The results of this study suggest that anaerobic bacteria are often not detected when routine methods for microbial evaluation are used. This should be considered during assisted reproduction and in patients with symptoms of genital tract infection and should lead to further studies in infertile patients where subclinical infection or inflammation is indicated by specific markers in semen samples.

Abstract
In the present study, a total of 619 subgingival and extracrevicular samples from 66 early-onset periodontitis, 42 adult periodontitis/gingivitis and 36 treated Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans-associated periodontitis patients were selectively cultivated for presence of A. actinomycetemcomitans. The organism was recovered from 68% cases with early-onset periodontitis, 24% cases with adult periodontitis/gingivitis and 50% of treated patients. Associations between recovery from pooled subgingival plaque and samples from extracrevicular locations as well as between different extracrevicular samples, were not heterogeneous with regard to different groups with the exception for cheek/saliva comparisons (odds ratios: early-onset periodontitis 825; adult periodontitis 8.1; treated patients 117; 0.05 < p < 0.1). For associations between recovery of A. actinomycetemcomitans from pooled subgingival plaque/extracrevicular samples, Mantel-Haenszel's odds ratios of between 12.2 and 21.6 were calculated (p < 0.0001). The organism was isolated from 17 cheek mucosa samples of 18 patients identified as still harboring the organism after therapy. Present results point to the considerable value of cheek mucosa samples especially in treated patients to diagnose persistent A. actinomycetemcomitans colonization of the oral cavity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the relationship of the differentiated morphological pattern of semen samples according to strict criteria and sperm-mucus interaction in vivo and in vitro. PATIENTS One hundred sixty-three randomly chosen couples with long-standing infertility (median duration of infertility 4 years, range 1 to 19 years). SETTING Outpatient clinic of the fertility unit at the Women's University Hospital of the University of Heidelberg, Heidelberg, Germany. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Sperm morphology assessment using strict criteria (Tygerberg or Norfolk classification) parallel to standard methods of sperm analysis: Evaluation of the cervical factor of patients' female partners, including a microbial screening of genital secretions of both partners; Examination of sperm migration ability in vivo under hormonally controlled conditions for the cervical mucus (CM) quality and in vitro with the crossed sperm-CM penetration test performed with CM of patients' partners, as well as with CM and spermatozoa of donors; Determination of the selection capacity of CM with regard to sperm morphology by means of a biological model; Prospective analysis of the differentiated morphological pattern with respect to couples' subsequent fertility within 6 months. RESULTS Using stict criteria, amorphous sperm heads were the most frequently found sperm anomaly (severely amorphous forms: median, 28%; range, 4% to 62%). The morphology index offered a median of 45% (range, 7% to 80%). Results correlated significantly with routine sperm analysis, including standard morphology. The morphological pattern differed significantly in samples offering adequate or inadequate ability to penetrate CM in the standardized sperm-CM penetration test or in the postcoital test, with the percent of severely amorphous heads as the most important parameter. Neck and tail defects did not play an important role. During passage of mucus columns in vitro, the rate of pathological spermatozoal forms was reduced significantly, from a median of 65% to a median of 38%. Better functional capacity of spermatozoa with normal head morphology also was reflected by a significantly higher pregnancy rate under natural conditions of conception. CONCLUSIONS Sperm morphological properties, determined with strict criteria, are important factors for sperm ability to penetrate the mucus barrier at the uterine cervix before reaching the site of fertilization, but sperm morphology is only one among other parameters determining the complex phenomenon of sperm-mucus interaction.

Abstract
Ten patients with head trauma received an intravenous bolus of sufentanil (2 micrograms kg-1) followed at 30 min by infusion of sufentanil (median 150 micrograms h-1) and midazolam (median 9.0 mg h-1) over 48 h. Median (range) values of pharmacokinetic parameters for sufentanil were: t1/2,z = 16 (7-49) h; CL = 1215 (519-2550) ml min-1; CLR = 7 (2-38) ml min-1; Vss = 10.0 (6.8-24.2) 1 kg-1. Decreases in intracranial pressure (ICP) (from 16.1 +/- 1.7 to 10.8 +/- 1.3 mm Hg; P < 0.05) and mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) (from 85.5 +/- 3.9 to 80.2 +/- 4.9 mm Hg; P < 0.05) were observed within 15 min of the bolus injection of sufentanil and remained unchanged thereafter. Thus, cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP = MAP-ICP) was stable.

Abstract
Trisomy 12 has been shown to be one of the most common chromosome abnormalities in chronic lymphoid leukemias of B-cell origin, and some studies suggested that it predicts poor overall survival. We have prospectively studied 42 patients with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) and three patients with B-prolymphocytic leukemia (B-PLL) for the incidence of trisomy 12 and other chromosome 12 aberrations applying fluorescence in situ hybridization (ISH) and conventional G-banding analysis. Dual-color hybridization experiments using centromere-12-specific DNA probes were performed for interphase cytogenetics. A subset of patients (n = 11) was analyzed using a DNA library for painting of chromosome 12. The incidence of trisomy/partial trisomy 12 was 18% (8/45 patients; 6/42 with B-CLL and 2/3 with B-PLL) by fluorescence ISH, and 11% (5/45 patients; 4/42 with B-CLL including one patient with partial trisomy 12q13-qter, and 1/3 with B-PLL) on G-banding analysis. Four patients with trisomy 12 were detected by ISH alone. One of these patients only had 4.5% interphase cells with three fluorescence signals indicating the presence of a small subclone with trisomy 12. On G-banding analysis, three of the four patients had a normal karyotype, and one patient had no analyzable metaphases. In conclusion, fluorescence ISH to interphase nuclei is a sensitive method for detecting trisomy 12 in patients with chronic lymphoid leukemias.

Abstract
2,373 mothers and their newborn were studied during two years with respect to B streptococci colonisation or contamination. Bacteriological, vaginal and anal smears were taken from mothers at the beginning of parturition, as well as the amnion and the aspirated stomach contents of the newborn, employing, in each case, conventional culture methods and a latex agglutination test as a rapid testing method. Smears from the ears were also taken from the newborn for bacteriological examination. The vertical transmission and its possible influencing variables were examined in 1,328 mother/child pairs of the first observation year. Surface contamination of the newborn was confirmed in 10% in at least one smear. In the group of mothers with B streptococci colonisation, the amnion showed the highest rate of contamination (43%), followed by the aspirated stomach contents (26%) and the ear smears (taken from each side separately) with 28% and 30% respectively. Vertical transmission was decisively influenced by vaginal maternal colonisation (50% of the cases resulting in contamination of newborn), whereas anal colonisation, if it was the only site of colonisation, resulted in contamination of newborn in only 32% of the cases. The rate of contamination of newborn dropped significantly from 50% to 20% after intrapartal antibiotic prophylaxis, the latter appearing to be meaningful only after at least 6 hours of exposure. In this group, the surface contamination could be reduced from 61% to 8%. A group of newborn suffering from early onset of sepsis (0.4%), was compared with a group of 13 newborn at risk of infection (0.9%) with established surface contamination and clinical or laboratory chemistry confirmation of infection.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
After screening a large series of infertile patients (n = 1000 couples), potentially pathogenic microorganisms were identified in genital secretions of the majority of couples. None of the patients displayed signs or symptoms of infection of the lower genital tract. In semen specimens and cervical swabs, mycoplasmas were found in 18 and 12%, potentially pathogenic aerobic bacteria in 50 and 31%, additionally commensal aerobes in 38% and 25%, respectively. The microbial pattern showed great variability with polymicrobial growth most common. The rate of cultures positive for potentially pathogenic anaerobes was markedly influenced by the transport conditions. In endocervical material, Herpes simplex virus (HSV) was identified in 4.5%. Yeasts were found in the posterior vaginal fornix in 10%. Concerning both partners, there were only 10 couples (1%) from whom microorganisms in genital secretions could not be isolated, not including lactobacilli in females. This high prevalence of microbes and the low number of leukocytes indicate colonization rather than infection. When the microbial findings from both partners were analysed with regard to the outcome of sperm-cervical mucus penetration testing in vitro, which was performed simultaneously, no significant correlation was found. Furthermore, microbial prevalence did not differ between couples with 'explained' and 'unexplained' infertility. The results of this study demonstrate that in patients without symptoms of genital tract infection, microbial colonization is of minor importance for sperm--mucus interaction and that extensive microbial screening should be preferentially performed in cases of poor sperm and/or mucus function.

Abstract
In the years 1987-1989 a bacteriological investigation of the milk was made in 44 clinically healthy postparturient bitches. In 30 animals bacteria most commonly isolated were staphylococci. 30.3% (40 samples) of the samples yielded pure cultures and 6.8% (9 samples) anacultures. Small numbers of bacteria were isolated in most of the samples; 67.4% showed moderate bacterial growth (less than or equal to 10(4)/ml sample). In vitro drug sensitivity tests revealed lincomycin, erythromycin and polymyxin B proved to be most efficient. Moreover neomycin, kanamycin and chloramphenicol showed low resistance rates while colistin sulfate and carbenicillin were less effective. A direct influence of lactiferous gland colonization with bacteria on mortality of puppies was not observed. With respect to clinical aspects, the application of antibiotics for sanitation of the lactiferous gland colonization with bacteria in clinically healthy bitches has to be considered carefully. However, for this the estimation of drug sensitivity tests is not satisfactory and should be completed by accurate bacteriological identification.

Abstract
A plastic lung working on the same principles as an iron lung has been developed at the Medical School in Hannover. Functional and practical tests were performed in a representative group of patients. Respirators support following the principles of an iron lung may be provided as a supplement or an alternative to existing artificial respirator therapy. The modern artificial respirators are superior to the plastic lung, which however, has advantages for particular indications: Respiratory therapy performed in a plastic lung is well tolerated by the patients. It requires specific skills which can easily be learned by the medical staff. Routine use certainly cannot be instituted before further technical improvement has been achieved; in particular the noise level should be reduced. The plastic lung is suitable for short-term ventilation (2-10 h); in view of the restricted nursing procedures possible, prolonged artificial respiration cannot be recommended. In conclusion, immediate postoperative ventilation is the area of application for the plastic lung. Several advantages are known: the endotracheal tube can be removed, there is no indication for sedative drugs, cardiac function and organ blood flow are positively influenced, mucolysis and lung expansion are adequate. A patient whose spontaneous respiratory activity is borderline benefits from short-term therapy, which can be repeated as necessary. Protracted artificial ventilation can be avoided. The gradual process of weaning from the ventilator following prolonged artificial respiration is facilitated by the use of a plastic lung. Plastic lung therapy is superior to other common methods of treating persistent atelectasis, because its mucolytic effects lead to expansion of the atelectatic lobe or segment.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Basing on a retrospective analysis of 169 cases of relapses of tuberculosis that had been confirmed by bacteriological examinations, we explored possible causes and/or factors favouring a relapse. 6.5% of the mycobacteria cultivated when the relapse was discovered, were resistant to one antibiotic, and 5.3% to two ore more antibiotics. On treating the previous disease, side effects were seen in 31.6%, in 22.3% chemotherapy of the previous disease had been insufficient in respect of duration and/or continuity and/or combination, and in 22.5% the intake of drugs had lacked controlled supervision. In 56% of the relapses there were concomitant diseases (alcoholism in 24.5%, silicosis in 14.9%, diabetes mellitus in 9.7% and gastrointestinal diseases in 5.2%).

Abstract
Using transmission electron microscopy, the fine structure of anterior persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous (PHPV) removed from the eyes of four infants was studied. The tissue mass was composed of vessels derived from or representing the tunica vasculosa lentis posterior and the vasa hyaloidea propria. They were embedded in a loose connective-tissue matrix containing many fibroblasts and mature collagen fibrils. Toward the posterior surface, the fibroblasts became more numerous, elongated and densely packed. At the point of its entry into the posterior pole of the mass, the hyaloid artery was found to be surrounded by glial cells, probably representing an extension of the wall cells of the hyaloid canal. Venous drainage of the PHPV nodules seemed to occur via the ciliary body to which they were connected by tiny vessels bridging the distance from the PHPV lump to elongated ciliary processes. The anterior surface of the tissue lump was covered with lens fragments. These remnants showed signs of very early disturbance of lens development, with a failure to form posterior lens fibers. Based on these findings, the authors suggest that PHPV may be secondary to a primary defect in lens development.

Abstract
Total atelectasis of the left lung occurred in a 61-year-old woman after several weeks ventilator-assisted breathing following an operation for ileus, when the tracheal cannula was removed. It was quickly replaced and artificial ventilation resumed. But despite daily bronchoscopic suction for three weeks the patient's state failed to improve (vital capacity 39%, arterial pO2 47 mm Hg, pCO2 37 mm Hg). Mechanical ventilation with an "iron lung" was therefore instituted over a six month period, at first for two hours daily (as an in-patient) and then weekly (as out-patient). During this time her condition and general state clearly improved. On re-hospitalization to remove the tracheal cannula her vital capacity was 75%, pO2 78 mm Hg and pCO2 38 mm Hg.
