Q: Abstract: Two hundred and seventy-seven patients with advanced prostatic cancer were treated by either orchiectomy or oestrogen. During the 2-year follow-up period, the response to treatment was considered more favourable in the oestrogen group, and this response was particularly emphasised in patients with poorly differentiated tumour and metastases at the time of diagnosis. Further evaluations included the cardiovascular side effects of oestrogen therapy.

Q: Abstract: The effects of dobutamine on hemodynamic and oxygen transport were evaluated in 43 studies on 34 critically ill general (noncardiac) surgical patients. Dobutamine, beginning at a low dose (2.5 micrograms/kg X min) significantly increased cardiac index (CI), oxygen delivery (DO2), and oxygen consumption (VO2), while decreasing mean arterial pressure, pulmonary artery and wedge pressures, and systemic and pulmonary vascular resistances; blood gases, pH, and pulmonary shunt were not significantly changed. These effects were seen in postoperative and septic patients, as well as in patients with normal, low, and high control CI. These responses were poor in terminally ill and hypovolemic patients; however, when the latter were given additional fluids, their responses were markedly improved. The hemodynamic effects of dobutamine are well known, but the DO2 and VO2 effects, which suggest improved tissue perfusion, have not been appreciated.

Q: Abstract: In an earlier report, the authors demonstrated a trend toward progressive hyperopia in radial keratotomy (RK) patients examined between one and three to four years postoperatively. In those 109 cases, the surgeries were performed using a metal-blade instrument. In the following study, the metal-blade series was updated to a total of 225 procedures, and a more recent series of 300 procedures performed on 228 patients was examined in which a diamond-knife cutting instrument was used. Patients had uncorrected visual acuity determination, cycloplegic refractions with best corrected visual acuity measurements and keratometry measurements. The authors demonstrated a hyperopic shift in the distribution of postoperative spherical equivalent (SE) values across time such that higher proportions of cases in both metal-blade and diamond-knife series were at least 1.0 diopter (D) away from emmetropia at 24 and 48 months than was the case at 12 months after surgery. Regression analysis determined that none of the preoperative or surgical variables known to affect refractive outcome of RK (alone or in combination) could account for the changes in refraction seen during the course of postoperative time. In general, changes in keratometry paralleled refractive changes, but were somewhat smaller in magnitude.
