Abstract
SummaryUrinary oestrogen and pregnanediol values were measured in 24 boys and 38 girls between the ages of 2 and 13 years. Longitudinal studies were conducted on eight girls, two of whom collected for periods of 4 and 5 years which included menarche and in one case establishment of ovulation. Highly sensitive assay methods were developed for measuring the very small amounts of oestrone, oestradiol and oestriol and pregnanediol present in the urine of young children. The total oestrogen values were within the submicrogram range of 0·1–0·5 μg/24 hr in the children aged 2–8 years, with no differences seen between the boys and girls. After the age of 8 years, oestrogen values above 1 μg/24 hr began to be encountered and by age 11½ years the majority of subjects were recording oestrogen values above this figure. The rise in the oestrogen values was more rapid in the girls than in the boys. Evidence was presented that a value of approximately 1 μg/24 hr represents the minimum oestrogen production for the initiation of breast development. The oestrogen values were fluctuating with irregular periodicities at all ages and the gradual general rises seen after the age of 8 years could be arrested at any stage for a year or more. Menarche was preceded by marked periodic fluctuations in oestrogen output which peaked above 15 μg/24 hr. In all subjects studied, the initial bleeding cycles were anovulatory as judged by the low pregnanediol values, the usual pattern being one of fluctuating oestrogen production. One subject was studied fully through to the establishment of ovulation, which first occurred 12 months after menarche. The approach of ovulation was indicated by pre-menstrual rises in pregnanediol which increased in amplitude from 0·4 mg/24 hr until finally 2 mg/24 hr was exceeded (the value accepted for ovulation). Evidence was presented that the interval from menarche to ovulation in different individuals was very variable, extending from ovulation at menarche itself to periods of more than a year. Recording of self-observed symptoms of production of cervical mucus could be of considerable value in documenting these events in larger populations.

Abstract
Serum and prolactin levels and urinary oestrogen and pregnanediol excretion were measured during early pregnancy in 12 hyperprolactinaemic subjects who became pregnant during treatment with bromocriptine. Prolactin levels were suppressed below normal whilst taking the bromocriptine, but rose significantly when this drug was stopped and by eight weeks of gestation reached values significantly higher than those observed in normal pregnancy. Further increases in prolactin levels were, however, not observed. Urinary oestrogen and pregnanediol excretion was initially normal but, following cessation of bromocriptine, urinary pregnanediol excretion decreased and was significantly less than normal at 11 to 14 weeks gestation. These results suggest that elevated prolactin levels affect corpus luteum function of early pregnancy. Because the effect is maintained until at least 14 weeks gestation, prolactin may also affect progesterone production by the placenta.

Abstract
The response of hyperparathyroidism and skeletal calcium loss in haemodialysis patients to treatment with 1alpha-hydroxyvitamin D3 and a dialysate calcium concentration of 1.375 mmol/l was compared with the response to treatment with a dialysate calcium concentration of 1.375 or 1.75 mmol/l alone over a 6 month period. In patients treated with 1alpha-hydroxyvitamin D3 there was a significant rise in plasma calcium associated with a significant fall in plasma alkaline phosphatase and plasma parathyroid hormone as well as resolution of sub-periosteal erosions. In these patients there was a significant rise in the calcium content of the forearm assessed by neutron activation analysis in comparison to patients treated with a dialysate calcium concentration of 1.75 or 1.375 mmol/l alone. In patients treated with a dialysate calcium concentration of 1.375 or 1.75 mmol/l alone there was no significant change in the plasma calcium, alkaline phosphatase or parathyroid hormone after 6 months and in these patients subperiosteal erosions either did not change or became worse. No significant difference in the response in these two groups was observed. This study indicates that treatment of haemodialysis patients with 1alpha-hydroxyvitamin D3 is significantly more effective than treatment with a dialysate calcium concentration of 1.375 or 1.75 mmol/l alone in preventing progression of hyperparathyroidism and skeletal calcium loss.

Abstract
Twelve anovulatory patients with normal serum prolactin values and six with elevated values were treated with bromocriptine and the effects on serum prolactin, FSH and LH levels were recorded. Ovulation resulted in one patient who had normal prolactin values and in all six who had raised values. No patient with normal basal prolactin values showed an increase in serum FSH during therapy with bromocriptine, whereas 5 of the 6 patients with elevated values showed significant increases. Similar results were obtained for LH. Although these differences were highly significant (P less than 0-005) the majority of the serum FSH and LH values remained within the normal ranges. Five patients with normal basal prolactin values and one with elevated values were also treated with human pituitary gonadotrophin (HPG). An increase in ovarian responsiveness to HPG during therapy with bromocriptine was recorded in the one patient with initially elevated prolactin values. It was concluded that bromocriptine acts by allowing FSH to rise above threshold requirements for follicular stimulation.

Abstract
Urinary oestrogen and pregnanediol excretion were measured before and after hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy in 26 postmenopausal women with adenocarcinoma of the endometrium, 10 postmenopausal women with mixed adenosquamous carcinoma and 11 postmenopausal women with atypical hyperplasia (the patient groups). The results were compared with the values obtained in 22 active postmenopausal women, 20 hospitalized postmenopausal women and 18 women who had been subjected to hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy for cancer of the cervix (the control groups). The ovaries and Fallopian tubes obtained at operation were examined for evidence of current or past excessive oestrogen production. Preoperative oestrogen values were higher in the patient groups than in the controls and the elevated values persisted after oophorectomy. The implications of these findings are discussed.

Abstract
The mean (+/-SD) serum prolactin (PRL) level of 78 normal premenopausal women was 10-6+/-3-0 ng/ml, and this was significantly different from that of post-menopausal women (8-2+/-4-0 ng/ml) and women taking combined oral contraceptive preparations (12-2+/-4-0 ng/ml). No significant differences were found between follicular and luteal phase PRL levels. Serum PRL levels higher than the ranges given above were found in 31 of 87 patients with secondary amenorrhoea and two of 41 patients with oligomenorrhoea. Nine of the 33 patients with hyperprolactinaemia did not have galactorrhoea. Only two of the patients with hyperprolactinaemia had pituitary tumours evident on skull X-ray films. Serum PRL levels were of value in predicting the likely success in achieving ovulation with clomiphene citrate or CB-154; clomiphene citrate was less likely to be successful in the presence of hyperprolactinaemia, whereas the reverse applied for treatment with CB-154.

Abstract
Basal serum levels of prolactin were measured in 37 infertile anovulatory patients who had failed to conceive on therapy with clomiphene citrate. Twenty of these patients, 16 of whom had galactorrhoea, had elevated basal serum prolactin values which were suppressed to normal or subnormal values during therapy with bromocriptine, the most commonly effective dose being 2.5 mg twice daily. Ovulation, as assessed by urinary oestrogen and pregnanediol measurements, was induced in 17 of these patients with pregnancy in 14. Ovarian responses short of defined criteria for ovulation were induced initially in eight patients, but these progressed to full ovulatory responses in five patients, either on the same or increased doses of bromocriptine. In all the patients who ovaulated, the prolactin levels had been reduced below the mean value for normal women (10.6 ng-ml). The three patients who failed to ovulate all had values higher than this at a dose of bromocriptine reaching 5.0 mg thrice daily. There seemed to be no value in increasing the dose of bromocriptine once ovulation had been achieved. Of the 17 patients with normal basal prolactin values, only one had an unequivocal response to bromocriptine with ovulation and conception, even though the prolactin values in the majority were suppressed to below normal.

Abstract
A primary infection with schistosoma mansoni, of 5 or more weeks duration, stimulated a high level of resistance to a challenge infection in the WO outbred strain of golden hamster. In sharp contrast, the LGN strain showed no statistically significant immunity to reinfection in most experiments and where detected the level of resistance was only about half that observed in the WO strain. Immunity to reinfection was assayed with the lung recovery method which assesses resistance a few days after challenge and with the conventional perfusion assay which measures immunity 6 weeks after challenge. Wide differences in the immune response to S. mansoni in different strains of the same host species have not been reported previously.

Abstract
Immunosuppressive antimouse and antihuman thymocyte sera and antihuman T lymphocyte sera, raised in rabbits, inhibited colony formation in vitro by bone marrow stem cells. Absorption of the antisera with fetal liver, or isolation of the gamma-globulin from the antisera, removed the inhibitory effect on bone marrow stem cells but left the anti T lymphocyte activity unimpaired. Absorption with cultured lymphoblasts (B cell lines) failed to remove the affinity of the globulins for B lymphocytes.

Abstract
Hamsters (WO strain) with a primary infection of Schistosoma mansoni or S. haematobium rapidly developed immunity to homologous challenge judged by the lung recovery assay. Immunity was detected at 4-5 weeks and reached a plateau 6 weeks after infection. Using this information, hamsters with an 8-week primary infection with S. mansoni or S. haematobium were tested for resistance to homologous reinfection and resistance to a challenge with the other species of schistosome. Primary infection with S. mansoni or S. haematobium conferred a high level of immunity to reinfection with either species of schistosome judged by the perfusion assay, involving recovery of adult worms 6-10 weeks following challenge. Estimation of the level of immunity with the lung recovery assay, 5 days after challenge, indicated that immunity due to a primary infection with S. mansoni acted at or before migration of the challenge through the lungs but immunity stimulated by a primary S. haematobium infection was only partially effective at the lung stage and substantial destruction of challenging organisms occurred at a later stage of development. Antibodies in immune sera of hamsters with a primary S. mansoni or or S. haematobium infection were shown to bind to common antigens on the surface of young schistosomula of either species by u.v. microscopy using as detecting agent a fluorescein-labelled rabbit antiserum directed against hamster globulins.

Abstract
In our hospital early neonatal hypocalcaemia is now the major cause of low serum calcium in the neonatal period. Over a 2-year period, only 2 cases of hypocalcaemic convulsions were seen in a total of 8700 deliveries, though 51 infants had early neonatal hypocalcaemia. All sick low birth-weight infants should have daily serum calcium estimations carried out. Calcium supplements should be considered if symptoms of hypocalcaemia are present.

Abstract
Blood mononuclear cells from ten healthy donors and cells from fifty cultured human lymphoblastoid lines were tested for the capacity to form rosettes with sheep erythrocytes. The effect of adding glutaralhehyde before scoring rosettes and the effect of substituting glutaraldehyde-fixed for fresh sheep cells were both examined. The results suggest that glutaraldehyde increases the apparent proportion of rosette-forming cells by altering the sheep erythrocytes in such a way that they will adhere to some B lymphocytes. Although a small number of cells carry both surface immunoglobulins and receptors for fresh sheep erythrocytes, the rosette test with fresh sheep cells identifies T lymphocytes more accurately in the absence of glutaraldehyde than in its presence.

Abstract
The early (approximately 8–50 msec latency) averaged electroencephalic responses (AER) to 55 dB HL clicks were elicited from ten normal newborns 36 to 72 hours after birth. Early components were observed in all ten babies with 512 clicks presented at 4.5/sec and 9.0/sec. Mean peak latencies in msec were: Po — 11, Na — 17, Pa — 28, Nb — 35, and Pb — 51. The neonates' early component waveforms closely resemble those of adults. The latency and waveform stability of the early components in neonates and adults support the belief in the primary auditory (lemniscal) system as the mediator of these responses. Furthermore, the repeatability of the early components of the AER makes them more reliable response indices than the late components (approximately 50–400 msec) for audiometry with neonates.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation of liver and kidney microsomes induces a highly characteristic sequence of morphological changes typified by detachment of ribosomes and formation of large aggregates of vesicles bound together by dense amorphous material and myelin figure-like debris. The trilaminar structure of the membrane is, however, retained even after complete peroxidation, though its spacing may be increased. The aggregates resemble lysosomal lipofuscin pigment as well as the membranous aggregates of endoplasmic reticulum seen in the liver after carbon tetrachloride poisoning.
