Abstract
We have examined the insulin-stimulated IRS-2 association with PI 3-kinase and the phosphorylation of AKT/PKB, which is functionally located downstream of the PI 3-kinase, in aged (obese) rats. The IRS-2 protein levels were similar in 2 and 20 month-old rats in both tissues, liver and muscle. There were reductions in insulin-induced IRS-2 tyrosine phosphorylation in liver and muscle, accompanied by a decrease in IRS-2/PI 3-kinase association and in AKT/PKB phosphorylation only in muscle tissue of aged rats. This regulation may be important in the altered glucose metabolism observed in aged (obese) rats.

Abstract
Pregnancy is known to induce resistance, but the exact molecular mechanism involved is unknown. In the present study, we have examined the levels and phosphorylation state of the insulin receptor and of insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1), as well as the association between IRS-1 and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) in the liver and muscle of pregnant rats (day 20 of gestation) by immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting with anti-insulin receptor, anti-IRS-1, anti-PI 3-kinase and anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies. There were no changes in the insulin receptor concentration in the liver and muscle of pregnant rats. However, insulin stimulation of receptor autophosphorylation, as determined by immunoblotting with antiphosphotyrosine antibody, was reduced by 30 +/- 6% (p < 0.02) in muscle and 36 +/- 5% (p < 0.01) in liver at day 20 of gestation. IRS-1 protein levels decreased by 45 +/- 6% (p < 0.002) in liver and by 56 +/- 9% (p < 0.002) in muscle of pregnant rats. In samples previously immunoprecipitated with anti-IRS-1 antibody and blotted with antiphosphotyrosine antibody, the insulin-stimulated IRS-1 phosphorylation levels in the muscle and liver of pregnant rats decreased by 70 +/- 9% (p < 0.01) and 75 +/- 8% (p < 0.01), respectively. The insulin-stimulated IRS-1 association with PI 3-kinase decreased by 81 +/- 6% in muscle (p < 0.01) and 79 +/- 11% (p < 0.01) in the liver during pregnancy. These data suggest that changes in the early steps of insulin signal transduction may have a role in the insulin resistance observed in pregnancy.

Abstract
The relationship between neonatal apnea following general anesthesia and serum ionized calcium (Ca2+) concentration was examined in 13 neonates who had received intraoperative hyperventilation. In all cases, preoperative serum Ca2+ concentration was within normal limits. The anesthesia was maintained by nitrous oxide and oxygen. At the end of anesthesia, the incidence of abnormal breathing such as apnea, periodic breathing or subcostal retraction and their activity were investigated. Five minutes after intravenous administration of 2% CaCl2 solution (16 mg.kg-1), the same parameters were compared with the values before CaCl2 administration. As we used only Ca2+ free solution for fluid therapy during operation, serum Ca2+ concentration decreased gradually under general anesthesia, but after CaCl2 administration, it increased and the incidence of abnormal breathing decreased. To determine the relationship between hyperventilation and the incidence of abnormal breathing, the data were analyzed by dividing the patients into two groups based on PaCO2 level, a lower PaCO2 group (intraoperative PaCO2 < 30 mmHg, n = 5) and a higher PaCO2 group (PaCO2 > or = 30 mmHg, n = 8). But there was no significant relationship between them. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that the Ca administration has a favorable effect on respiratory system and motor activity, but we cannot relate the incidence of postoperative abnormal breathing to the degree of hyperventilation.

Abstract
Rehbein's method is one of the surgical procedures for pediatric pectus excavatum, which constructs thorax by lifting and fixating the sternum using metal strut inserted into bone marrow of bilateral ribs. We experienced two pediatric cases of tension pneumothorax caused by tracheal suctioning during the operation by this method. The etiology of tension pneumothorax was thought to be as follows. A small pleural hole was made during separation of ribs from surrounding tissues and a large amount of air entered into the pleural space and check valve mechanism worked at the pleural hole when the lung was collapsed on tracheal suctioning. In anesthetic management of pectus excavatum by Rehbein's method, we should always be cautious of the possible occurrence of tension pneumothorax.

Abstract
We reported the anesthetic management of a 1-day-old female neonate (2,110 gm) with esophageal atresia combined with double tracheoesophageal fistulae, which is classified as Gross type D. Though Gross type C was suspected preoperatively, the proximal fistula was found coincidentally during the preparation of the upper pouch. Because, for one thing, the origin of the proximal fistula was close to the end of the upper pouch (1cm), and for another, the distance between the both fistulae was short (1cm). As for the proximal fistula, it was 2 mm in diameter, and it was easily sealed with the side of the endotracheal tube. No other respiratory managements were needed except frequent suctionings of copious intratracheal secretions. On the other hand, the distal fistula, 10 mm in diameter, caused hypercapnea due to hypoventilation before gastrostomy. It was so big that it is easily intubated. This type of tracheoesophageal fistula is extraordinarily rare and its proximal fistula is difficult to find before, during, and even after operation. The missing of the proximal fistula often provokes severe respiratory infections and furthermore, sepsis postoperatively. It is concluded that in all the cases of tracheoesophageal fistula, the existence of the proximal fistula should be considered without fail and managed accordingly. To diagnose correctly, the use of preoperative bronchofiberscopy is also recommended.

Abstract
The purpose of the present report is to reveal the relation between hemodynamic changes and serum catecholamine concentrations during operation of 23 neuroblastoma patients. The patients were aged from 6 months to 7 years (mean 1.2 year), and 20 patients (86%) were under 1 year of age. All the patients were in early stage of tumor development because they were diagnosed as neuroblastoma mainly by mass screening test for VMA and HVA in urine utilizing HPLC. This urinary mass screening test for infants is performed routinely in Japan. Operative manipulation of tumor provoked the significant elevation of blood pressure, and the increasing tendency of heart rate and rectal temperature. The mean concentrations of three kinds of serum catecholamine, epinephrine, norepinephrine and dopamine, were all very high during manipulation of tumor. Especially, the norepinephrine concentration was 90.2 times higher than the preoperative value. The children who showed high blood pressure, over 70% of the control level, showed high urinary VMA and VMA/HVA ratio preoperatively and a high norepinephrine secretion during operation. We conclude that for the anesthetic management of neuroblastoma, it is necessary to control the elevation of blood pressure even in small children, especially in the patients who have showed high values of urinary VMA and VMA/HVA ratio preoperatively.
