Abstract
In the presence of prevalent bone metastases, the precise histo-pathological diagnosis of the primary tumor is often difficult. The authors study the diagnostic value of systematic serum assay of a series of tumoral tracers (ACE, AFP, PAP and PSA, SCC, CA 19:9, CA 15:3, CA 125) which until now were used in evolutive and therapeutic monitoring. 34 patients were selected for this preliminary retrospective study (including 20 with a demonstrated histopathological diagnosis). 70 p. cent of prevalent bone metastases express a target tracer corresponding to the initial location. In some cases, an elevated tracer, because of its specificity, may bring about a diagnostic or therapeutic decision (always according to the context). No conclusion may currently be drawn in case of discordance between the anatomo-clinical context and the "profile" of the markers (1 case in our series).

Abstract
The observation that F-acids (1) occur in rat chow initiated a search for F-acids in human diet. We observed that the amount of F-acids with a pentyl side chain in alpha-position taken up with a one-day diet correlates well with the amount of excreted degradation products, the pentyl urofuran acids (2), (3) and (4). Therefore it can be concluded that F-acids with a pentyl side chain are not produced in the human body but are introduced through the diet. The origin of F-acids carrying an alpha-propyl side chain is less clear. The amount of propyl-urofuran acids (2) and (3) excreted in urine was found in one case out of three to be five times higher than the amount of F-acids carrying a propyl group in alpha-position taken up by the diet. Therefore, it can presently not be excluded that a portion of the propyl F-acids is produced by the body. F-acids found in human food are mainly introduced into the body by vegetables and fruits. F-acids were found also in birch leaves in considerable amounts, as well as in grasses, dandelion and clover leaves. Thus, we can conclude that F-acids are common constituents of plants.

Abstract
1. The possible interaction (as indicated by rat experiments) between calcium channel blocking agents and benzodiazepines has been evaluated in nine healthy subjects. 2. Subsequently to an intravenous loading dose (0.07 mg kg-1) midazolam was infused for 6 h (0.035 mg kg-1 h-1) and steady state plasma levels between 54 to 114 micrograms l-1 were achieved. Two hours after the bolus of midazolam a solution of 20 mg nitrendipine or placebo was administered in a randomized, double-blind crossover fashion. 3. The marked sedative-hypnotic effects of midazolam as assessed by visual analogue scales (about four fold increase in the sedation index) and choice reaction time (100% prolongation) indicated some form of adaptation or tolerance towards the end of the infusion. However, the midazolam-induced impairments were not affected by nitrendipine. 4. EEG-data indicated stabile benzodiazepine-like effects during the complete infusion period of midazolam (e.g. decrease in alpha activity, increase in sigma, delta 2 and beta 1 activity). Again, these alterations were not modified by nitrendipine. 5. There was also no pharmacokinetic interaction between both agents, since elimination of midazolam (t 1/2 = 2.5 +/- 0.8 h; CL = 548 +/- 143 ml min-1) was in close agreement with control values (t 1/2 = 2.4 +/- 0.6 h; CL = 512 +/- 102 ml min-1). Likewise, plasma levels of nitrendipine were comparable to literature data. 6. Thus, it could be concluded that nitrendipine does not affect the action of midazolam and therefore a direct involvement of calcium at the benzodiazepine receptor site is unlikely under our clinical conditions.

Abstract
Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC), an autoimmune disorder, is well known to be in some cases associated with some other autoimmune disorders. We report a patient with PBC who presented giant cell arteritis (GCA) and polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) which are probably both autoimmune disorders.

Abstract
Authors report one case of intravertebral vacuum phenomenon associated with a multiple myeloma. Initially, there occurred a collapse and a lysis of the L4 vertebral body. Two months later, after chemotherapy and cobalt-therapy, X-ray examination showed a vacuum cleft phenomenon within the body of L4 and a backward displacement of the L4 posterior wall. At the same time the patient complained of a cruralgia. Recovery occurred after decompression surgery. Histologic sampling of the L4 vertebral body revealed bone necrosis without any abnormal plasmocytosis. Authors draw attention to the neurological complications occurring in the course of the vertebral necrosis and to the fact that, even in case of multiple myeloma, the occurrence of a transverse vacuum cleft may result from osteonecrosis.

Abstract
Ethanol aggravates benzodiazepine-induced central nervous depression by pharmacokinetic and/or pharmacodynamic interactions and Ro 15-1788 reverses promptly the hypnotic effects of benzodiazepines. We therefore studied the acute effects of Ro 15-1788 on the ethanol-induced sedation in six healthy male subjects. Subsequently to an oral loading dose (0.54 g ethanol kg-1) ethanol was infused for 4 h (0.15 g ethanol kg-1 h-1) and steady state blood levels between 0.9 to 1.2 g l-1 were reached within 2 h. At steady state and during the elimination phase of ethanol an intravenous bolus of 0.5 mg Ro 15-1788 or placebo was administered in a randomized, double-blind crossover fashion. The marked sedative effects of ethanol as assessed by visual analogue scales (2 to 6 fold increase in the sedation index), and choice reaction time (25 to 40% prolongation) were not affected by Ro 15-1788. However, the pharmaco-EEG indicated that Ro 15-1788 seems to reverse transiently the ethanol-induced changes in total alpha, delta, and slow alpha bands. There was no pharmacokinetic interaction between both agents since elimination of Ro 15-1788 (t1/2 = 1.2 +/- 0.7 h) and of ethanol (0.17 +/- 0.02 g l-1 h-1) were in good agreement with control values. Thus, it could be concluded that Ro 15-1788 might affect for a short while the action of ethanol by interfering with the benzodiazepine receptors.

Abstract
A placebo controlled, randomized, double-blind cross-over study was carried out in 7 healthy volunteers in order to study the central and autonomic nervous system side effects of ketanserin in comparison to clonidine. Psychometric performance was assessed as well as electroencephalographic recordings (EEG), saliva production, mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) and pulse rate under placebo conditions (P, 10 ml saline), following 0.15 mg/kg ketanserin or 2 micrograms/kg clonidine i.v. administration. The sedation index as well as the deceleration of EEG frequencies clearly expressed sedation following both, ketanserin and clonidine. Saliva production was significantly decreased by ketanserin (p less than 0.05) and clonidine (p less than 0.01), respectively. MAP was only very slightly reduced by ketanserin, while clonidine caused a small but significant decrease (p less than 0.0001). The pulse rate changes did not reach a clinically important extent. Thus, sedation as main central nervous system side effect and reduction in salivation as autonomic nervous system side effect of ketanserin could be clearly quantified in comparison to placebo and clonidine.

Abstract
Data obtained from a questionnaire completed by 177 cancer patients were analyzed for prevalence of depressive and anxiety disorders and aspects of coping behavior. We found a high correlation between frequency of depressive symptoms and the period time after which cancer was diagnosed. According to data reported by other authors, prevalence of depression ranged between 21% and 32%. Anxiety disorders were found in about 40% of all cancer patients. Chemotherapy seems to be very stressing: During the course of therapy, we found a duplication of depressive symptoms, severe depression increases from 0% to 17%. Personality-traits possibly predict anticipated nausea and vomiting (ANV). Patients with ANV show higher values in depression, anxiety, fatalism, but lower ones in internal control measured before chemotherapy.

Abstract
Eighty-six patients with progressive systemic sclerosis were given coagulation factor XIII intravenously in different dosage regimens. The mean duration of treatment was 19 +/- 18 months and patients were followed up for 22.9 +/- 18.8 months. Improvement or stabilization of the lesions was obtained in 44/86 patients and exclusively concerned skin lesions; there was no improvement in visceral lesions. The drug was well tolerated in short-and long-term treatment. It is concluded that factor XIII demonstrated lasting effectiveness in one-half of the patients treated.

Abstract
A series of 21 patients with multiple myeloma and a survival of more than 5 years was compared to another series of 70 cases of myeloma, which all died within less than 5 years. The statistical analysis of these two groups revealed six factors with a significant prognostic value. The population with a long term survival presented: a low incidence of large tumour masses (stage III according to Durie and Salmon's classification): 24 per cent compared with 72 per cent p less than 0.01); a frequency on asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic forms of 29 per cent versus 7 per cent in the control series (p less than 0.001); a haemoglobin level of 7.3 mmol/l versus 6.4 mmol/l (p less than 0.01); a low beta-2-microglobulin level (4 mg/l versus 11 mg/l) (p less than 0.02); a usually normal serum creatinine level (p less than 0.05). Retrospectively, the authors also observed that the response to treatment constituted an essential prognostic factor (69 per cent response compared with 20 per cent) (p less than 0.001). The serum calcium, the immunological type, the level of monoclonal component and the marrow plasmocytosis did not differ between the two groups. The authors consider all of these parameters, together with the calcitonin hypocalcaemia test to be useful in three situations: the therapeutic decision in minimally symptomatic patients, the choice between single agent or combination chemotherapy, the establishment of criteria of remission and suspension of treatment.
