Abstract
The present study shows that there is a circadian variation in the excretion of urinary kinin, kallikrein and prostaglandin E (PGE) as well as urine flow, urinary sodium excretion and urinary potassium excretion in recumbent healthy volunteers. The present data, that the acrophase of urinary kallikrein excretion was 1.5 hr later than that of plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) and that a significant positive correlation was found in circadian variations between urinary kallikrein and PAC, suggest that the circadian variation of urinary kallikrein excretion may be regulated by aldosterone. The pattern of circadian variation of average urinary kinin excretion coincided with those of average urine flow, urinary sodium excretion and urinary PGE excretion, suggesting that renal kinin and PGE may be involved in the regulation of water-sodium excretion. The present data that the phase of circadian variation of urinary kinin was delayed from that of urinary kallikrein and that there was a mirror image between the circadian variation in urinary kinin and kallikrein suggest that there may be a feedback mechanism in renal kallikrein-kinin system.

Abstract
An antibiotic drug of aminoglycoside group, tobramycin (TOB) for parenteral use was used to 18 hospitalized patients: 5 with cholecystitis, 10 with acute appendicitis and 3 others. TOB in a dose of 60-90 mg were administered before the operation, 9 cases were administered by intravenous drip infusion for 1-2 hours, 7 cases by intramuscularly and 2 cases by intravenously. The materials of A-bile, B-bile, wall of the gallbladder, the appendix, ascites and serum samples were taken during the operation. TOB concentration was measured by bioassay method with Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633 strain. TOB concentration in B-bile and gallbladder wall were higher than those in the A-bile. TOB concentration in gallbladder wall and appendix were directly proportional to degree of pathological changes of the inflammation. For the therapeutic purpose, TOB were given to the 15 patients of the above 18 cases. TOB in a dose of 60-90 mg were administered by intravenous drip infusion for 1-2 hours, twice or 3 times a day for 3-18 days. Clinical response was excellent in 2 cases, good in 11 cases, fair in 1 case and poor in 1 case. No adverse effect was observed. Therefore, it was supposed that TOB could be used safety by intravenous drip infusion.

Abstract
An antibiotic drug of aminoglycoside group, dibekacin (DKB) for parental use was used in 48 patients hospitalized due to acute or subacute infection of abdominal organs: 36 appendicitis, 9 cholecystitis and 3 others. DKB in a dose of 100 mg was given intramuscularly in 38 cases, and in 10 cases was given intravenously by single or drip infusion before the operation. The materials of A-bile, B-bile, wall of gallbladder, the appendix wall, ascites with pus and serum were taken during the operation. DKB concentration was measured by bioassay method with Bacillus Subtilis ATCC 6633 strain. With a few marked exceptions, DKB concentration in B-bile were higher than those in A-bile. DKB concentrations in gallbladder wall and appendix wall were directly proportional to the degree of pathological changes of inflammation. DKB concentrations in infected tissues after intravenous drip infusion, they were higher relatively than those after intramuscular administration. DKB concentrations in serum after intravenous drip infusion reached to peak immediately the end of infusion, and in the infected tissue they reached to peak at the same time and stayed for a relatively long time, then they were declined slowly. For the therapeutic purpose, DKB was given to the 6 patients with acute peritonitis of the above cases. DKB in a dose of 100 mg were administered by intravenous drip infusion for 2 hours, twice in a day for 3 - 10 days. Clinical response was excellent in 2 cases, good in 3 cases, fair in 1 case and poor in none. No adverse effect was observed. Therefore, it was supposed that DKB could be used safely by intravenous drip infusion.

Abstract
The possible benefit of oxygenation during initial cold flushing was investigated as means of improving the quality of live preservation in rats. In five group of animals (total 61 experiments), the lives were flushed with different perfusates. Non-oxygenated groups included controls, Collins' solution alone and Collins' solution containing perfluorotributylamine (FC-43). In the oxygenated groups, Collins' solution alone and collins' solution containing FC-43 were oxygenated by bubbling. The hepatic ATP level and histopathological changes were used to assess the quality of liver preservation. Oxygenation during the initial cooling process proved to be effective in maintaining energy metabolism and preventing the characteristic microscopic changes of ischemic damage. Oxygenated Collins' solution containing FC-43 showed a much longer lasting effect compared with oxygenated Collins' solution alone. Without FC-43. Under light microscopy, in integrity of the liver appeared to be well preserved up to eight hours with the former solution. It is concluded that enhanced oxygenation with FC-43 in the initial cold flushing period can improve the quality of liver preservation.

Abstract
Using the abdominal skin flap of rats, we showed that the arterial inflow through the venous system nourished the distal part of a flap and also worked as a pedicle of an island flap and a free flap. The position of the arteriovenous anastomosis and the draining vein seems important. This study implies that delay produces arterial inflow as a consequence.

Abstract
A new antibiotic drug of cephalosporin with marked resistance to beta-lactamase, cefotaxime (HR 756) for parenteral use in 8 patients with acute or subacute cholecystitis with cholelithiasis. Cefotaxime was administrated by intravenous injection or drip infusion at a daily dose of 1-4 g. Clinical response was excellent in 1 case, good in 7 cases, and fair or poor was none. Clinical adverse effect was not recognized. Cefotaxime in a dose of 1 g was given intravenously during operation to those same 8 patients. Tissue specimens of different places were taken from removed organs. The materials of A-bile and B-bile were subsequently taken at intervals. Determination of cefotaxime concentration was performed according to the bioassay method with Micrococcus luteus ATCC 9341 strain. Cefotaxime concentrations in the A-bile increased gradually until 1 hour after the intravenous administration. Cefotaxime was observed in the B-bile through the gallbladder wall after the intravenous injection.

Abstract
A simple method for orthotopic liver transplantation in the rat is described in detail. A cuff technique was applied to all anastomoses of the supra- and infrahepatic venae cavae and the portal vein. It simplified and shortened the implantation of the graft as well as eliminating the need for microvascular suture technique. In the last series of 20 transplants, the survival rate was 85% after 1 week and 55% after 2 months with normal hepatocellular function.

Abstract
During the years 1936 through 1978, 60 cases received surgical intervention for alveolar echinococcosis of the liver. The resectability and operative mortality rate were 64.0% (16/25) and 43.8% (7/16) before 1968, but 54.3% (19/35) and zero (0/19) thereafter. Establishment of clinical staging and criteria for justifying radical resection of a given lesion, combined with systematic evaluation of all hepatic vasculatures, contributed to improvement of the result. The long-term prognosis of the disease, unless resected, has been exclusively poor. A mass screening program, which became possible by the development of serologic tests, has covered a population of over 140,000 in the endemic area and been of value in detecting the disease in its early developmental stage. The disease should be recognized even in currently unaffected areas since the cestode has a fairly wide geographic distribution including the United States.

Abstract
A 10 year old boy, in grade IV hepatic coma, was treated by combination of XAD-4 resin hemoperfusion (HP), activated charcoal HP (Adsorba 300C, Gambro), exchange transfusion by up to 12.0 liters of fresh whole blood, and regular dialysis. Serum free amino acids' values were consecutively assessed during 4 days of treatment. The liver was 490 gr in weight at autopsy and histologic examination revealed cellular necrosis compatible with fulminant hepatitis. Pre-treatment values of alanine, lysine, proline, phenylalanine, arginine, threonine, tyrosine and methionine were increased by 2 to 38 times of normal control, while those of cystine, glutamic acid, serine and glycine were minimally increased up to 1.7 times. Histidine, isoleucine, leucine and valine, on the other hand, were decreased by 20 to 30% and aspartic acid was the lowest at 14% of normal control. The effect of XAD-4 resin HP and exchange transfusion was rather non-specific by decreasing the total amount of amino acids. The molar ratios of branched chain amino acids vs. aromatic amino acids or essential amino were elevated by activated charcoal HP, but, did not reach to normal range.

Abstract
Excretion of a new semisynthetic analogue of cephalosporin, cefotiam (CTM), and cefazolin (CEZ) in bile was investigated in dogs with experimental obstruction of biliary tract. In the control group, peak concentrations of antibiotics in bile after 50 mg/kg intravenous administration were as follows: In CTM administrated groups, 5,302 micrograms/ml at one hour after administration; and in CEZ administrated group, 1,249 micrograms/ml after one hour. The total biliary excretory rates summed to 6 hours after administration of antibiotics were 7.8% in the CTM group, and 2.1% in the CEZ group. On the other hand, in the biliary tract obstruction group, the peak concentration in bile in CTM group was 65.7 micrograms/ml after 1 hours, and in CEZ group, 62.4 micrograms/ml after 2 hours. The total biliary excretory rate in the CTM group was 0.202%, while in the CEZ group 0.12%. The peak concentration and the excretory rate of CTM in bile was four times higher than that of CEZ in the control group. No significant difference was revealed in the peak concentration and the excretory rate in bile between CTM and CEZ in the biliary tract obstruction group.

Abstract
Yersinia pseudotuberculosis was isolated from 8 (8 Rattus norvegicus) of 270 (259 R. norvegicus and 11 R. rattus) rats examined. Seasonal variation was not found in the incidence of isolations. The isolation occurred almost equally in both young and old rats. The isolated strains were determined as serovar IB in one rat, and serovar IVA in seven rats. The strains were isolated from the contents of the intestinal tract (the duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum, colon, and rectum), the spleen, liver and mesenteric lymph nodes; they were not detected in the kidneys. Agglutinin titer in the eight rats was no more than 32.
