In order to assess the additional information obtained from 24 hours compared to 12 hours of ambulatory ECG (electrocardiogram) recording, we analyzed 72 ambulatory ECG monitoring tapes in which arrhythmias were present. In all cases the second 12 hours included the entire period of sleep. Only 38 of 233 (16 percent) episodes of arrhythmias, frequent premature ventricular contractions (PVC's), two or more PVC's in a row, multiform PVC's, ventricular bigeminy, trigeminy, premature atrial contractions (PAC's), and supraventricular tachyarrhythmias occurred for the first time in the second 12-hour period. New ventricular arrhythmias were detected during the second 12-hour period in 13 percent of the arrhythmic episodes. Although sleep resulted in a marked decrease in PVC frequency in 63 percent of 30 recordings, with frequent PVC's while awake, 8 percent had a significant increase during sleep. In contrast, short runs of supraventricular tachyarrhythmias occurred during the second 12 hours in 48 percent of cases, 66 percent of these while asleep. These data suggest that a 24-hour ambulatory ECG tape recording be utilized initially to characterize the occurrence and frquency of the patients' ambulatory arrhythmias during awake and sleep periods. Thereafter, additional ECG recordings for monitoring antiarrhythmic drug therapy can be accomplished with a 12-hour recording in more than 80 percent of patients

Cardiovascular parameters, hematocrit (Ht), plasma electrolytes, renin activity (PRA) and aldosterone concentration (PAC) were measured in 12 normal human subjects (6 males and 6 females) eating an ad lib diet. At 8 AM, volunteers assumed the following postural changes: 1 hour supine, then 2 hours upright and finally 1 hour supine. Orthostatism induced the following changes: heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure increased immediately; Ht rose significantly at the 5th min in males but not in females; Plasma sodium showed no variations but potassium increased after 30 min; PRA rose significantly at the 5th min and, after 120 min of orthostatism, was found to be 3 times greater than its value after recumbency; and PAC increased significantly at the 15th min and exhibited a plateau 4.5 times its basal values after 90 min of upright posture. When subjects returned to the supine position all the parameters, except PAC decreased. During active orthostatism, a significant correlation was found between PAC and plasma potassium, but correlation was closer between PAC and PRA and between PAC and PRA + potassium. It can be concluded that the renin-angiotensin system is a more potent stimulus for aldosterone secretion than plasma potassium in normal man assuming postural changes. The results presented here can be applied to the development of a short posture test in non-hospitalized patients.

The indices of acid-base and pepsino-acid coefficients (ABC and PAC) in 99 patients with a duodenal ulcer, who previously underwent closure of its perforation and in 22 patients with uncomplicated course of the disease were studied. The control group included 22 healthy subjects. In patients after closure of a perforative duodenal ulcer, the low ABC and PAC indices may be indicative of the absence of stable disease remission and possibility of the development of a repeated complication.

Measurements of the deaminating activity of NAD-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase (NAD-GDH) in Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain 8602 (PAC 1) showed an initially constant rate that gave way to a 3.5-fold increased rate on prolonged incubation. Only the faster rate was observed when assay mixtures were preflushed with nitrogen or were treated with the detergent Triton X-100. Comparison of the intracellular distribution of NAD-GDH with marker enzymes showed it to be associated with the cytoplasmic membrane. The results suggest that NAD-GDH may be linked to oxygen through an electron-transport system.
