Spinal Anaesthesia – Newer Developments: the Role of Adjuvants

The immunohistology of chronic gingivitis in children.

Cell populations in the lesion of childhood gingivitis (CG) associated with the primary dentition were analyzed in 10 children using enzyme histochemistry together with a panel of 11 monoclonal antibodies. Immunohistological nalysis revealed that the CG lesion consisted largely of T lymphocytes (80-88%) with helper:suppressor (T4:T8) ratio of approximately 2.1:1. Activated macrophages (HLA-DR +...

Quantitative comparative immunohistology.

A quantitative assay for the determination of fluorescence of tissue sections stained with fluorescein-labeled antibodies using a fluorometer is described. Sequential microtome sections were stained with labeled antiserums, washed repeatedly with buffered saline, and digested with 20% (w/v) NaOH at 60#{176} for 12 hr. The fluorescence of the resultant solution is then read in a fluorometer. The...

s homo sapiens (thinking beings) and more precisely as homo fabers (creative beings) we have always been somewhat awed and puzzled by the notion of change and continuity. Is our contemporary living any different from the known past? Is terrorism of today any different from the terrorism of yesteryears? We could be more precise in our questions. Is twenty-first century-terrorism any different fr...

[Radiation-induced sialadenitis. Stage classification and immunohistology].

The course of radiation-induced sialadenitis in 58 cases in the salivary gland registry (Institute for Pathology of the University of Hamburg 1965-1987) was subjected to pathohistological and immunohistochemical analysis. The pathohistological changes may be classified by severity into 3 stages. Stage I is characterized by mild inflammatory interstitial changes and moderate atrophy of individua...
