Radioactive (14)C-glucose(U) was given to Clonorchis sinensis in Tris buffer medium, in corder to trace the metabolic fate of the labelled carbon. The labelled carbon from glucose enters into intermediary metabolites and end products of anaeroblic glycolysis, Embden-Meyerhof pathway, and of aerobic Krebs cycle. These product were identified by one or two-dimensional paper chromatography in combination with autoradoigraphy. The labelled metabolites detected in this experiment corresponded to pyruvic acid, latic acid, malic acid, succinic acid and fumaric acid. Amino acids, such as alanine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, valine, theronine, and serine, derived by the degradation of (14)C- glycose were also found. Labelled compounds behaving like alanine, aspartic acid and glutamic acid were observed in the chroma to gram of incubation medium. The preciptation which suggests a positive reaction for protein occured when absolute ethanol was added to the incubation medium.

Transient hyperkalemia has been reported to occur in eletric burn patients following intravenous administration of succinylcholine. We have studied the origin of the elevated serum K+ concentration after injection of succinylcholine from both the non-burned area and from the burned area in electirc burn patients. Blood samples for serum K+ measurement were drawn 1,2,3,4,5 and 10 minutes after administration of succinylcholine from both the burned are and the non-burned area in 6 electric burn patients. The following results were obtained: 1) Serum K+ levels increased in the burned group in 3 minutes after injection of succinylcholine. 2) The serum K+ concentration of venous samples from the electric burn area were more increased than from the non-burned area injection of succinylcholine.

6.Cardiovascular Responses during Fentanyl - O2 Anesthesia for Cardiac Valvular Replacement Operation .
Korean Journal of Anesthesiology 1989;22(6):813-820
Intravenous administration of high dose of fentanyl is gaining wide popularity as the sole anesthetic agent for patients undergoing cardiac surgery because of its favorable characteristics such as, simplicity, stable hemodynamics and supression or modification of stress response to surgery. But some investigators reported the necessity of supplementary anesthetic agent in addition to fentanyl to maintain hemodynamic stability during the surgical procedure. Therefore, we measured the heart rate(HR), systolic blood pressure(SBP), diastolic blood pressure(DBP), mean arterial pressure(MAP), and rate pressure product(RPP) at induction, tracheal intubation, skin incision, and sternotomy time to evaluate the cardiovascular responses to surgical procedure under fentanyl-O2 anesthesia on 12 patients with acquired valvular heart disease. The patients were anesthetized with a loading dose (30ug/kg fentanyl for induction and 1.5ug/ kg/min until sternotomy) followed by continuous infusion of fentanyl (0.3pg/kg/min until the end of cardiopulmonary bypass.) The patients required total doses of 108+/-4.6ug/kg fentanyl for the entire operation. These measurements were compared with control data (before induction). The results were as followings: 1) During induction (infusion of fentanyl 30ug/kg), HR, SBF, DBP, MAP, and RPP revealed no significant change compared with control data. 2) During intubation and skin incision, HR, SBP, DBP, MAP, and RPP slightly increased but were not statistically significant (p>0.05) 3) During sternotomy, SBP increased from 119.8+/-16.36 torr to 136.5+/-15.22 torr, DBP increased from 79.1+/-12.76 torr to 95.4+/-10.87 torr, MAP increased from 99.4+/-13.96 torr to 115.5+/-12.70 torr, and RPP increased from 10929+/-2206 torr.beats/min to 13889+/-2865 torr. beats/min (p<0.05). HR increased from 90.7+/-8.71 beats/min to 100.2+/-13.79 beats/min, but was not statistically significant(p> 0.05). 4) One of the patients had recall of the sternotomy and spreading of the chest with the sternal retractor. These data demonstrate that anesthetic doses of fentanyl and O produce minimal change in cardiovascular dynamics during the surgical procedures except sternotomy time. Our findings suggest that fentanyl-O2 anesthesia may be an attractive anesthetic technique in patients with valvular heart disease undergoing valve replacement operations but, will be needed considerations about infusion method, dosage of fentanyl and use of supplementary anesthetic agent according to patients conditions.

Diffuse glomerular basement membrane (GBM) lamellation, reminiscent of Alport's syndrome, has rarely, and exclusively, been reported in renal allografts from pediatric donors to adult recipients. We report on a similar lesion, identified in a 42-year-old male, who received a kidney from an unrelated 21-year-old living male donor. The disease of the recipient was unknown. Renal allograft biopsies were performed 3.5 and 4.8 years after the renal transplantation, due to massive proteinuria and serum creatinine elevation. The histological features of both biopsies were similar, but more advanced in the second biopsy. Glomerular mesangium was widened and had an IgA deposit in the first biopsy. In addition to the presence of mesangial electron dense deposits, the GBM showed diffuse lamellation and splintering on the subepithelial side, but no definite deposits. In the second biopsy, IgA deposits were extended to the peripheral capillary walls, but electron microscopic examination was not available. Two months after the second biopsy, the patient returned for hemodialysis.

This study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of intravitreal injection of tPA &C3F8 gas in submacular hemorrhage. Fourteen patients with sub-macular hemorrhage received an intravitreal injection of tPA &C3F8 gas and maintained face down position for 2 weeks. We investigated the feature of blood absorption, the correlation between underlying disease, hemorrhage size, duration and visual outcome. Underlying disease seemed to be a prognostic factor related to final visual acuity. Patients with choroidal rupture had better visual prognosis than those with age-related macular degeneration. The duration between the formation of submacular hemorrhage and treatment was correlated with final visual acuity, however, it was not sta-tisticallly significant. We have shown that submacular hemorrhage could be displaced by tPA and C3F8 gas injection in our most cases. In 7 of total 14 cases, visual acuity improved. The result suggests that this technique may be good for the initial treatment if done in appropriate timing in cases of submacular hemorrhage due to its simplicity and it can achieve relatively good results.
