Abstract Since the introduction of the pancreatic scanning using (75)Se-selenomethionine, there has been various protocols proposed to increase the pancreatic uptake of this isotope. In this experiment several protocols; as diets high carbohydrate meal, high protein meal, high fat meal, and as medicaments pancreozymin, secretin and phydroxyphenylsalicylamide (PHPS), were tested for determining the effects on the uptake of (75)Se-selenomethionine by the pancreas and the liver of the dog. The animals given protocols were sacrified at each of a number of selected times to compare P/L ratio on a percentper-gram concentration of (75)Se-selenomethionine and the total organ concentration of (75)Se-selenomethionine in the pancreas and in the liver. A controlled group of animals were fasted for 24-hour and sacrificed at each of same times. On P/L ratio basis it was found that animals with high carbohydrate meal had better ratio than those with no preparation during first 4-hour post administration. However, animals with each of high protein meal. fat meal and PI-IPS had lower ratio than those with no preparation. On the blood concentration, animals with each of high carbohydrate meal and secretin had lower variation of blood concentration than controlled group. Thus, from the results mentioned above, the protocol by high carbohydrate meal is proved to be useful in pancreatic scanning.

Title Alternative Clinical studies on electromyographic changes in rheumatoid arthritis Part III. Effect of radioactive hot spring baths

Author Ikegami, Tadaoki|
Abstract The author observed the changes in electromyographic patterns of 14 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (13 cases of classical rheumatoid arthritis and one case of definite rheumatoid arthritis) bathed 2 or 3 times daily in hot spring water at Misasa Spa, at a temperature of 40±1℃, 5-10 minutes. The electromyographic examination was performed on the biceps brachii, opponens pollicis and the abductor pollicis brevis. Intramuscular temperature was measured in the deltoid muscle. The results were as follows. 1) The intramuscular temperature in cases of rheumatoid arthritis did not deviate from normal subjects. 2) After the general spring bathing the intramuscular temperature increased about 1℃ and it had no difference between the patients with rheumatoid arthritis and normal subjects. 3) With increasing intramuscular temperature by the general spring bathing in cases of active rheumatoid arthritis the mean potential amplitude decreased and the mean potential duration increased. 4) With increasing intramuscular temperature by the general spring bathing in cases of inactive rheumatiod arthritis the mean amplitude increased and the mean duration decreased. 5) The patterns of potential duration and amplitude before and after a bath on re-examination, one month after a series of the general spring baths, showed a tendency of reverse of the initial patterns. 6) After two months of a series of the general spring baths, the patterns of electromyographic changes of patients with rheumatoid arthritis following the bathing were similar to the initial patterns.

Title Alternative Isotopic study of Hot Springs in Japan, I Techniques for oxygen isotopic analysis of spring water

Abstract The CO(2)-H(2)O isotopic equilibration technique was studied for the routine analyses of the oxygen isotopic ratios of hot spring water. A reaction vessel containing 2 ml of water and 0.16 m mole of tank CO(2) was shaken for 18 hrs. in a constant-temperature bath at 25.0℃ (Figs. 1, 2, and 3), and the CO(2) was analyzed for the oxygen isotopic ratio by a MCKINNEY type mass spectrometer. Several aliquots of 1, 2 and 5 ml from a same water were each analyzed three times by successive equilibration (Table 1). The observed values differ depending on the volume of water but the corrected values by equation (6) indicate excellent agreement, implying the whole processes to be well controlled. The reproducibility of the isotopic analyses is better than ± 0.1‰ (Table 2) in most cases, and the accuracy would not be worse than ± 0.2‰ as demonstrated by the interlaboratory comparison of some standard samples (Table 3). Oxygen isotopic ratios of water from more than 70 hot springs in Japan are presented (Table 5). Although the results will be discussed in the following issues of this series of paper, most hot spring water have the δ(18)O values similar to those of meteoric waters in Japan. However, spring water from Arima Hot Springs, Hyogo-Pref., which has been known by its abnormally high chloride and low sulfate concentrations is of an exceptionally high δ(18)O value.
