Benefit of monitoring the level of blood flecainide acetate in an elderly patient with ventricular premature contractions

Juni-ich Nagashima; Takashi Kaku; Kazuo Chiba; Keiji Ueda

A 67-year-old woman without organic heart, disease had symptomatic ventricular premature contractions. Because class Ia, Ib and IV antiarrhythmic drugs did not prevent the premature contractions, the patient was treated with flecainide acetate at a dose of 50 mg t.i.d. Adverse reactions were noted. After measurement of the blood drug level, the dose was reduced to 50 mg b.i.d. The adverse reactions disappeared, and the arrhythmia was controlled. Flecainide acetate has a relatively long blood elimination half-life and a narrow safety margin. When some antiarrhythmic drugs are used in elderly patients, blood drug level monitoring is useful in preventing adverse reactions and in designing appropriate therapy.

正常例と痴呆例の脳のCT所見を比較する場合, 老年者においては脳血管障害 (CVD) の有無により, 分けて検討しなければならない, そこで痴呆を主症状とする100名の老年痴呆患者と, 139名の健常老人ボランティアに対し, それぞれCVDの有無により二群に分類し, 年齢構成別に頭部CT所見の比較検討を行った結果, 以下のような結論が得られた.1. 健常老人ボランティアにおいても silent stroke をしめすものが約20%に見られ, これらを除くCVD (-) の健常老人のCT像を, 狭義の健常老人として, 痴呆脳のCT像の検討に際して対比することが必要と思われる.2. 狭義の健常老人においては側脳室拡大, 脳溝拡大, シルビウス溝の拡大の出現頻度は, 加齢と共に増大するが, PVL, 第三脳室拡大の頻度は加齢とともに増加せず, 80歳でも低値であった.3. 老人脳におけるPVLの出現頻度は血管障害の有無と関係が深いが, CVD (-) の痴呆患者においても, 加齢とともに増加した.4. 痴呆患者では側脳室拡大, 脳溝拡大, シルビウス溝拡大, 第三脳室拡大の頻度は, 年齢と関係なく, 脳溝拡大, 第三脳室拡大を除き一般にCVDを伴うものに高い傾向がみられた. これらの変化を健常老人と比較すると, 一般に80歳老人のそれにほぼ近かった.5. medial temporal lobe の萎縮を示す所見は50歳代のCVD (-) の痴呆例に最も高頻度に見られた. 60歳代以上の痴呆例においてはCVDの有無による差はなかった.6. 痴呆患者のCT像においては, PVL, 第三脳室拡大を除き, 加齢に伴う変化が早期より出現したり, より著明な変化を示すものが多いと言えるが, ほぼ年齢相応の変化を示すものも認められた.

Renal function was assessed by measurement of 99mTc-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) uptake by the kidney based on the transsectional tomographic image obtained by single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). The renal uptake was expressed as percentage of the total radioactivity detected in the kidney, the volume of which was measured by convolution method, against the amount dosed. Absorption was corrected by GE-STAR method using cut off level of 42%. In order to determine normal range, measurement was made for 40 kidneys of each of 10 male and female volunteers confirmed of having normal kidneys both morphologically and functionally. The average volume of the kidney was 220.4 ml for the right and 239.3 ml for the left for males, and 205.9 ml and 236.5 ml, respectively for females. The renal uptake of radioactivity (at 2 h after injection), was 26.8% for the right and 27.6% for the left for males, with corresponding figures for females being 26.4% and 27.9%, respectively. Distribution range of renal volume and renal uptake was obtained by bivariate analysis with 90% and 95% probability. From these results, our method of renal function determination based on renal uptake of 99mTc-DMSA obtained from renal transactional tomogram by SPECT is considered to be accurate and potentially useful for clinical purpose.

Evaluation of radionuclide angiocardiography (RNA) in patients with myocardial infarction: A camparison with postmortem findings

Jun-ichi Nagashima; Kazuo Chiba; Hideo Yamada; Masaya Sugiura; Kenichi Harumi

Radionuclide angiocardiograpy (RNA)における局所壁運動による梗塞診断率を剖検所見と対比して求めた. RNAの有病正診率は84.1%,無病正診率58.8%,総合正診率70.1%であつた.梗塞のない症例においても,壁運動異常が半数に認められ,特に広範囲壁運動異常を認めうものが多かつた.広範囲壁運動異常を示すものには,心筋梗塞症以外に, cardiacamyloidosisやうつ血型心筋症などの心疾患が認められた.心筋梗塞症例で, LVEF 30%未満のものでは,心臓死が87%に認められ,予後は9.3カ月と他の群に比し有意に短かつた. RNAは心筋梗塞の部位,心室瘤の有無,心機能を把握できるばかりでなく,安静時LVEFは心筋梗塞の予後の推定に有用であると思われた.

Study on organic anion (BSP) transport in Analbuminemic Rat (NAR)

Munehiko Tanno; Hideo Yamada; Sumi Nagase; Jun-ichi Nagashima; Toshio Muraki; Kazuo Chiba

血清中のアルブミンが有機陰イオンの肝摂取にどのような役割を果たしているか調べる目的で無アルブミン血症ラット(NAR)を用いてBSP静注後のBSPの胆汁排泄率につき検討した.その結果,0.5mg BSP/100g体重投与群では,SDラットの場合,15分間の胆汁排泄率は投与量に対して70.7±4.9%であり,NARでは53.7±1.4%と減少傾向を示した.また0.25mg BSP/100g体重投与群でも同様の傾向が認められた.NARにアルブミンとBSPを投与し,BSPの胆汁排泄率の変化につき検討した.その結果,胆汁排泄率に変化を認めなかった.以上の結果より,BSPなどの有機陰イオンの特異的肝摂取には,アルブミンは本質的な役割は果たしておらず,またWeisigerらのいうアルブミンリセプタの仮説は否定的であることが推察された.むしろリガンドのmembrane carrier proteinが重要な役割を果していると推察された.

著者らは当院で過去5年間に生前脳スキャンを受け, のち剖検され, その病理組織像が明らかにされている62例 (脳硬塞55・脳出血7) を対象とし, retrospective study を行い脳スキャンによるCVDの予後判定が可能かどうかを予後の違いによるグループ別に, 脳スキャン陽性度, 陽性病巣サイズ, 病巣部位について検討した. CVD発症後1カ月以内, 2カ月目~6カ月, 7カ月目~12カ月, 2年目以上に死亡した例を各々1群 (6例), 2群 (28例), 3群 (12例), 4群 (16例) とした.脳硬塞においては陽性症例は55%, 陽性スキャン頻度は58%, 経過観察平均スキャン回数は1.5回, 陽性度平均は1.9±1.2度, 陽性サイズ平均5.9±3.2cmであった. 脳出血においては上記の順に夫々43%, 44%, 1.3回, 1.7±1.1度, 6.5±1.7cmの結果であり陽性サイズのみ脳硬塞より高い値を示した.脳硬塞例では発症5カ月後迄が陽性期であり陽性度よりみると発症後4週目に陽性ピークがあった. 脳スキャン陽性度平均は第1群で2.3±1.1, 第2群で2.3±1.2, 第3群1.7±1.0, 第4群で1.3±1.1度と差がみられた. 即ち脳スキャン陽性度平均と予後の長短は相関が認められた. 予後の悪い第1群, 第2群では最初から高い陽性度を示し予後のよい第4群では急速な陰性化を示すことが特長的であった. しかし4群別に検討した経時的陽性度平均の最大値は上記の順に3.0, 3.2, 2.7 3.0度と差はみられなかった. 陽性スキャンの頻度は上記の順に各々75, 68, 68, 33%であった. 陽性病巣サイズ平均は上記の順に各々7.0±5.0, 6.8±3.7, 4.8±1.4, 5.1±2.1cmと重症例程陽性病巣サイズが大きい傾向はみられたがSDが大きく平均値による検討は意味付けが難しかった. 陽性度と陽性サイズに相関があるかどうかを検討した所, 両者の相関はなく陽性度と病巣の大きさの持つ臨床的意義は別である事が分った.

Lung uptake of technetium-99m microaggregated human albumin in the rat after treatment with microaggregated human albumin or macroaggregated human albumin

Hajime Murata; Kenichi Kitani; Masahiro Iio; Hideo Yamada; Kazuo Chiba; Kengo Matsui; Shinichiro Kawaguchi

Marked accumulation in lung and liver of intravenously-injected 99mTc-microaggregated human serum albumin (liver imaging agent) was observed in rats pretreated with the subcutaneous injection of microaggregated or macroaggregated human serum albumin, whereas accumulation of 99mTc-microaggregated human serum albumin was observed only in the liver of rats pretreated with plain human serum albumin or in non-treated control rats. The activity of the intravenously-administered 99mTc-sulfur colloid was concentrated in the liver and spleen only and not in the lung, of rats previously treated with human serum albumin, microaggregated human serum albumin, or macroaggregated human serum albumin.These observations suggest that the specific accumulation of microaggregated human serum albumin in the lung of rats pretreated with aggregated albumin is due to rapid in vivo clumping of injected particles, possibly due to antigen-antibody reaction.
