In a field study comprising 678 patients with arterial hypertension efficacy and tolerance of the stable combination VKB 105 consisting of 10 mg Pindolol (Visken) and 5 mg Clopamid (Brinaldix) were investigated. Treatment with 1--2 tablets of VKB per day resulted in a successful therapy in 94% of all patients corresponding on the average to a reduction in blood pressure to 145/85 mm Hg within 14 days. In mean arterial pressures ranging between 120 and 170 mm Hg a positive linear relationship between the individual initial value and the hypotensive effect of the combination could be observed. A controlled omission trial disclosed qualitatively the respective contribution to the effect of the two components Pindolol and Clopamid. With a systematic case control of the serum potassium under the combined therapy with VKB 105 and during a monotherapy with Clopamid and antihypokalaemic effect of Pindolol could be demonstrated diminishing the tendency for potassium loss. The result revealed a far-reaching potassium neutrality of diuresis-depending stimulation of renin by the beta-receptor blocker. In 61 patients altogether subjective side-effects could be recorded, such as vertigo (5%), palpitations (2.8%), fatigue (2%), insomina (1.9%), nausea (1.7%) and vomiting (0.8%). Laboratory controls gave no indication for clinically relevant changes.

Bromocriptine 2-5 mg twice daily is effective in the treatment of both normoprolactinaemic and hyperprolactinaemic secondary amenorrhoea. This was demonstrated by the restoration of menstrual cycle and/or ovulation in 9 of 18 normoprolactinaemic and in 8 of 14 hyperprolactinaemic patients taking bromocriptine. Serum-prolactin level decreased in both groups of patients, and usually menstruation was recovered within 8 weeks'treatment. Galactorrhoea disappeared in 7 of 9 hyperprolactinaemic patients, and 2 became pregnant. After treatment had ceased spontaneous menstrual activity continued in 4 patients. 16 patients had side-effects the commonest being nausea and vertigo. These usually disappeared with the dosage was reduced, but 5 patients refused to continue. These results point to a new approach in the treatment of secondary amenorrhoea, even in those patients whose clinical findings give no indication of prolactin suppression.

A rare case of the choroid plexus papilloma originating from the extraventricle was reported. A 48-hear-old woman began not to walk well about two years ago. Then, she was complained of vertigo, hearing disturbance of the right ear and nausea. These symptoms gradually increased. On admission she had papilledema, Brun's nystagmus, hearing disturbance of right ear and cerebellar ataxia. Cerebral angiogram and CT scan showed dilated ventricles and a large tumor in the posterior fossa. At operation, tumor was found in extramedullary space at the right cerebello-pontine angle and extended to the foramen magnum. This was removed totally. Histological examination revealed choroid plexus papilloma. Her postoperative course was satisfactory and shunting procedure was not necessary. According to the electron microscopic findings, the ultrastructure of tumor was similar to that of normal choroid plexus. We could not clear the morphological features which were considered essential for overproduction of CSF in the tumor.

Forty patients suffering from vertigo of different genesis received thiethylperazine 6.5 mg or meclizine 25 mg, 2 capsules a day for 5 days, according to double-blind, cross-over methodology in randomized order. It appeared that the effect on the symptoms vertigo, gait disturbance and nausea does not differ significantly for the two preparations. On the other hand, an almost significant effect on vertigo, and, to a smaller degree, on gait disturbances, was obtained during the second period of treatment, independent of administered preparation. Side-effects in the form of fatigue and headache occur to the same extent after both preparations. Meclizine should be an alternative to thiethylperazine in the treatment of vertigo, especially in patients who might risk chronic dyskinesia in long-term treatment.

The results obtained from the first 20 cases of Discoid Lupus Erithematosus treated with Thalidomide showed evidence of its great efficacy, evident from the first 15 days of treatment. In the incipient cases the results were even spectacular. 2. The minimum dosage used by the authors seems to be adequate on the basis of the results obtained. 3. The precise mode of action of thalidomide but it is thought that in acts on the hypothalamus. 4. The intolerance to Thalidomide and its undesireable side effects consisted slight somnolence; only one case had fever, cephalea, arthralgia, vertigo, nausea and urticaria which is unknown made it necessary to discontinue the medication. 5. The teratogenic effect of thalidomide obliges us to redouble the vigilance in women in age of reproduction by using of parenteral contraceptives applied by or in presence of the investigator. This study included one case that started treatment during the 7th month of pregnancy, without any problem and with an excellent result. The patient gave birth to a healthy full term infant. 6. It is recognized that this preliminary study should be continued with a greater number of cases and that these should be continued for a longer follow-up evaluation. At the present time, the authors believe that thalidomide is the best treatment for Discoid Lupus Erythematosus.

Fifteen patients with advanced gastric cancer were treated with the combination of Ftorafur, Adriamycin and mitomycin-C (FAM II). Three patients showed partial responses, in five the disease remained stable for at least 3 months and seven showed progression while on treatment. All responding patients showed survival in excess of 12 months. Hematologic toxicity was of only moderate severity. Median white count nadir was 3500 cells/mm3 and median platelet nadir was 187,000 cells/mm3. Four patients had white count nadirs from 2000--2500 cells/mm3 and three had nadirs from 500--1500 cells/mm3; also there were four with platelet nadirs less than 100,000/mm3. However, no drug-related infections occurred and no platelet transfusions were required. The major non-hematologic toxicities of the regimen were nausea, vomiting, dizziness, vertigo, and rhinorrhea. These toxicities were limiting and resulted in termination of the trial because of poor patient acceptance and the failure of the combination to exhibit a therapeutic advantage over the similar combination (FAM) that employed weekly 5-fluorouracil in place of Ftorafur.

Most of the previous literature concerning otologic problems in compressed gas environments has emphasized middle ear barotrauma. With recent increases in commercial, military, and sport diving to deeper depths, inner ear disturbances during these exposures have been noted more frequently. Studies of inner ear physiology and pathology during diving indicate that the causes and treatment of these problems differ depending upon the phase and type of diving. Humans exposed to simulated depths of up to 305 meters without barotrauma or decompression sickness develop transient, conductive hearing losses with no audiometric evidence of cochlear dysfunction. Transient vertigo and nystagmus during diving have been noted with caloric stimulation, resulting from the unequal entry of cold water into the external auditory canals, and with asymmetric middle ear pressure equilibration during ascent and descent (alternobaric vertigo). Equilibrium disturbances noted with nitrogen narcosis, oxygen toxicity, hypercarbia, or hypoxia appear primarily related to the effects of these conditions upon the central nervous system and not to specific vestibular end-organ dysfunction. Compression of humans in helium-oxygen at depths greater than 152.4 meters results in transient symptoms of tremor, dizziness, and nausea plus decrements in postural equilibrium and psychomotor performance, the high pressure nervous syndrome. Vestibular function studies during these conditions indicate that these problems are due to central dysfunction and not to vestibular end-organ dysfunction. Persistent inner ear injuries have been noted during several phases of diving: 1) Such injuries during compression (inner ear barotrauma) have been related to round window ruptures occurring with straining, or a Valsalva's maneuver during inadequate middle ear pressure equilibration. Divers who develop cochlear and/or vestibular symptoms during shallow diving in which decompression sickness is unlikely or during compression in deeper diving, should be placed on bed rest with head elevation and avoidance of maneuvers which result in increased cerebrospinal fluid and intralabyrinthine pressure. With no improvement in symptoms after 48 hours, exploratory tympanotomy and repair of a possible labyrinthine window fistula should be considered. Recompression therapy is contraindicated in these cases...

"Fatigue on Rest", headache, vertigo and the feeling of loss of balance, blurred vision, nausea, tension and irritability, were found to be prevalent amongst patients who had locally asymptomatic, unerupted impacted teeth. A comparative pressure sign was developed, which, when positive, confirmed the relationship between the impacted teeth and the medical symptoms. Removal of the impactions resulted in the alleviation of the symptoms. Stress and psychogenic factors are considered as trigger mechanisms, rather than as basic causes of the symptoms.

Twenty-nine patients with chronic bilateral subdural haematomas were surgically treated during 1966 to 1977. Twenty-four of them (83%) had a history of head injury, which caused unconsciousness in eight cases. The mean interval from trauma to operation was eleven weeks. The mean age of the patients was 60 years. The prevalence of the most commonly encountered symptoms and signs was: headache 72%, mental symptoms 48%, papilloedema 41%, vertigo 31%, nausea 28%, reduced consciousness 28%, walking difficulties 24%, hemiparesis 24%, and paraparesis 14%. The aggregate thickness of haematomas was 34 mm, 36 mm, and 40 mm in age groups of 20--39, 40--59, and over 60 years, respectively. All patients were operated on, four of them only unilaterally. Three patients in the whole series died. Two of them had been operated upon only on one side in the first session, the haematoma of the other side being evacuated 8 1/2 hours and four days later, respectively. Unilateral operation is likely to cause severe distortion of the midline structures and the brain stem and thus aggravates the cerebral situation. Therefore the necessity of simultaneous evacuation of the haematomas on both sides is stressed. The reason for the death of the third patient was delay in diagnosis. All three patients who died belonged to the group of eight patients with a reduced level of consciousness before surgery. Twenty-three of the survivors were fully independent in their daily lives, and three needed some help after operative treatment.
