Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was undertaken to examine the possibility of a delayed hypersensitivity reaction or contact dermatitis occurring in the guinea-pig in response to methacrylate derivatives used as experimental dentine primers. METHODS The dentine primers 2-HEMA, GM, MA and MMA were tested in a guinea-pig maximization test. RESULTS All the dentine primers tested produced positive delayed hypersensitivity reactions in the guinea-pig. MMA produced the most severe reaction. CONCLUSION It is concluded that in the clinical situation, clinicians and other members of the dental team should be aware of the need for careful handling of the dentine primers tested.

Abstract
A 40-year-old patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) had an atopic dermatitis-like skin eruption and elevated serum IgE levels after therapy with AL721. This agent is a mixture of egg yolk lipids used for the treatment of AIDS. The relationship between the drug and the eruption has been based on circumstantial evidence and confirmed by the positive results of skin tests. Although an almost unlimited amount of materials have been reported to be responsible for atopic manifestations, cases of drug-induced atopic dermatitis are rare. AL721, however, can be regarded as a food product; therefore, the appearance of the eruption following intake of this agent should not be considered exceptional.

Abstract
The volatile, odorous fraction of neem oil coded as NIM-76 obtained by steam distillation was investigated for in vitro spermicidal activity. The data showed that the minimum concentration which inhibited spermatozoal motility was 0.25 mg/ml for rat and 25 mg/ml for human spermatozoa. The effect of the drug on spermatozoal motility was found to be dose-dependent. The activity of this drug was not altered in the presence of vaginal or cervical mucus. Intra-vaginal application of NIM-76 in rabbits showed no irritation to the vaginal mucosa.

Abstract
Percutaneous transhepatic removal of common bile duct stones was performed 57 times in 53 patients with a success rate of 93%. All patients had contraindications to surgery or had undergone unsuccessful attempts at endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and papillotomy. A modified Dormia basket was inserted through a percutaneous transhepatic approach and the stones or fragments were advanced into the duodenum. Monooctanoin (26 patients) or methyl tertiary butyl ether (4 patients) was infused to reduce stone size or remove residual debris. The average time for complete stone removal was 8.5 days. Morbidity was 12% and mortality was 4%, results which compare favorably with those of surgery.

Abstract
Paraphenylendiamine and glyceryl monothioglycolate are among the most common sensitizers in hairdressers. Ordinary vinyl gloves can prevent paraphenylenediamine sensitization, but presently available gloves are either not protective against glyceryl monothioglycolate sensitization or are too cumbersome to use. A new, lightweight Danish "4H" glove, which protects workers against epoxy resin and acrylic compounds, is being investigated for use in protecting against glyceryl monothioglycolate sensitization. Table II lists the principal features of the differential management of patients with paraphenylenediamine and glyceryl monothioglycolate sensitization.

Abstract
Monooctanoin is a cholesterol solvent indicated for dissolution of retained biliary stones. We summarize four reports--one from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's Spontaneous Reporting System for Adverse Drug Reactions and three from published medical literature--of noncardiogenic pulmonary edema during intrabiliary monooctanoin in the United States. Based on these data, we show that pulmonary edema during intrabiliary monooctanoin infusion may occur in approximately one per 1000 patients treated.

Abstract
Glyceryl monothioglycolate, a reducing agent used in permanent waving solutions, is a recognized cause of allergic contact dermatitis. Because of an unexplained persistence of dermatitis in beauty shop clients after exposure to permanent wave solutions containing glyceryl monothioglycolate, we looked for the presence of this or a cross-reacting substance in permanent-waved hair as a possible source of continued exposure to the allergen. Seventeen subjects sensitive to glyceryl monothioglycolate underwent patch testing with hair samples collected before and at various times after a permanent wave containing glyceryl monothioglycolate. None reacted to hair that had not received a permanent, while 7 of 17 showed positive reactions to the permanent-waved hair. Positive reactions were seen in hair collected as long as 3 months after the permanent. This suggests that a glyceryl monothioglycolate-related allergen is retained in hair for up to 3 months after the permanent, which may explain the long-lasting dermatitis that occurs in clients sensitive to glyceryl monothioglycolate.

Abstract
An 18-year-old girl developed cheilitis. She had a past history of lip cream dermatitis, but the cause was not found. Patch tests with 2 lipsticks were strongly positive. Tests with the ingredients were positive to 2 aliphatic compounds, glyceryl diisostearate and diisostearyl malate. Impurities in the materials were suspected as the cause. Analysis by gas chromatography detected 3 chemicals in glyceryl diisostearate and 1 in diisostearyl malate as impurities. Patch testing with the impurities and glyceryl monoisostearate 0.01% pet in glyceryl diisostearate and isostearyl alcohol 0.25% pet in diisostearyl malate were strongly positive. The characteristics common to the 2 chemicals were liquidity at room temperature, branched C18 aliphatic compound and primary alcohol. Chemicals lacking any of the above 3 features did not react.

Abstract
Mono-octanoin (glycerol-1-mono-octanoate) is a medium-chain diglyceride used to dissolve gallstones. We describe a patient in whom noncardiogenic pulmonary edema developed during intrabiliary infusion of monooctanoin. The temporal sequence suggests that the drug infusion initiated the lung injury.

Abstract
The efficacy and safety of mono-octanoin, a cholesterol solvent for the direct dissolution of stones in the biliary tract, was assessed by collating case reports on 343 patients provided by 222 physicians who used the material between 1977 and 1983. Most patients had previously undergone cholecystectomy, with common duct exploration, the majority within the preceding six weeks. In most, sphincterotomy was impossible or if carried out, had not induced stone passage. Stone dissolution was considered preferable to surgery, especially in patients who were frail, elderly, or had multiple medical problems. Treatment was unequivocally successful in 88 patients (26%) and was a valuable adjunct to interventional treatment in another 29 subjects (8%). In 70 patients (20%), calculi became smaller, but remained within the biliary tree. Thus, mono-octanoin was judged to have been useful in 54% of patients. Treatment was ineffective in 124 cases (36%). In the remaining 32 patients (9%), treatment was aborted because of side effects. Such side effects were common, occurring in 67% of cases, and in 41% of patients they were multiple. Abdominal pain was the most common complication. Other side effects reported were nausea, vomiting, and diarrhoea. Side effects were usually dose related and responded to reduction in infusion rate. Side effects were life threatening in 12 patients (5%), but there were no permanent sequelae and no deaths occurred. These data indicate that mono-octanoin is moderately effective, generally second line, but sometimes first line, treatment for retained biliary duct calculi.

Abstract
During 64 months (1977 to 1983), twelve dermatologists from various sections of the United States studied a total of 713 patients with cosmetic dermatitis out of an estimated total of 13,216 patients with contact dermatitis. The number of patients seen for all causes during this period was 281,100. An important finding was that half of the patients or physicians were unaware that a cosmetic was responsible for their dermatitis. Skin care products, hair preparations (including colors), and facial makeup were responsible for the majority of the reactions. The most important objective was identification of causative ingredients. Eighty-seven percent of the subjects had patch tests. Fragrance, preservatives (Quaternium-15, formaldehyde, imidazolidinyl urea, and parabens), p-phenylenediamine, and glyceryl monothioglycolate were the most frequently identified allergic sensitizers, in that order. In addition to the clinical data, the study permitted assessment of the frequency of cosmetic reactions, although the data may not be entirely representative of the country at large because of the special interests of the dermatologists involved.

Abstract
Monooctanoin (Capmul 8210), a digestion product of medium chain triglycerides, is a cholesterol solvent that has been used for the dissolution of retained cholesterol gallstones following cholecystectomy. Bile duct infusion of monooctanoin is associated with little toxicity, although potentially serious problems can result from absorption of the drug or tissue infiltration. Gastrointestinal side effects such as anorexia, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain have been reported most commonly. Complete gallstone dissolution has occurred in approximately 50-75 percent of patients receiving monooctanoin. Although mechanical stone removal is still considered to be the treatment of choice for retained gallstones, monooctanoin use appears promising for stone dissolution in patients in whom mechanical removal has been unsuccessful or is impossible.

Abstract
Monooctanoin, a cholesterol solvent, was infused into the biliary system of 11 patients. Twenty-eight (74%) of 38 total stones responded to monooctanoin: 16 (42%) decreased in size, and 12 (32%) dissolved completely. Ten stones (26%) did not change in size. We attribute this to inadequate drug-stone contact, which was corrected by placement of the infusion catheter contiguous to the stone(s). The use of a second catheter for biliary drainage avoided the side effect of biliary colic and increased patient compliance. An infusion rate greater than 5 ml per hour invariably produced pain and diarrhea. There were no significant side effects from monooctanoin in any of our patients when a two catheter system and an infusion rate of 5 ml per hour or less were used. A major drawback to use of this still experimental agent is the prolonged hospital stay. This may be ameliorated when at home use of monooctanoin is approved.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to estimate efficacy, safety, and tolerance of monooctanoin in 16 patients with retained radiolucent biliary stones and indwelling biliary drainage. Monooctanoin was infused continuously at a rate of 3-4 ml/h. Monitoring of pressure with a manometer broken off at 20 cm prevented the development of excessive pressure in the common bile duct. The mean volume of the compound instilled (+/- SD) was 848 +/- 393 ml (range 80-1450) and the mean duration of treatment was 13 +/- 6 days (range 2-23). Monooctanoin induced disappearance of stones in 11 of 16 patients giving a success rate of 69%. Three patients exhibited a partial dissolution of stones which were then successfully removed through the postoperative T-tube. The two failures can be attributed to the type of stones mainly composed of bile pigments. Side effects from the infusion of monooctanoin were only minor and easily controlled by reducing the infusion rate of the solution. Laboratory tests, including hepatic and pancreatic enzymes, remained stable. In one subject endoscopic and histological evidence of mild duodenitis was found when pre- and posttreatment features were compared. On the basis of these data, we recommend monooctanoin to treat biliary-retained cholesterol stones.

Abstract
Eight hairdressers and four clients were found to be allergic to glyceryl monothioglycolate (GMTG) contained in "acid" permanent waves used in American beauty salons only since 1973. Previous studies in Germany showed that compounds closely related to GMTG were strong sensitizers. In contrast, ammonium thioglycolate (ATG) has been used since 1943 in cold "alkaline" permanent waves both in homes and in salons with no clearly documented cases of contact allergy. Our allergic patients reacted to GMTG in concentrations as low as 0.25%, although their exposure in practice could reach concentrations of 20% to 80%. GMTG-allergic patients reacted to GMTG when it was tested through a variety of glove fabrics. Household-weight neoprene gloves were protective.
