[Salivary gland scintigraphy after radio-iodine therapy. Functional scintigraphy of the salivary gland after high dose radio-iodine therapy (author's transl)].

Following high dose radio-iodine therapy, some radiation damage to the salivary glands is to be expected since iodine is taken up by these glands. The great individual variation in the uptake makes it impossible to predict the severity of the damage. T max and maximal excretion capacity after stimulation were therefore estimated by a camera functional scintigram with digital read out in patients following radioiodine therapy (0.

[Investigations on the distribution, cause and prevention of early perinatal morbidity (author's transl)].

These investigations were designed to detect causes of early perinatal morbidity in order to develop methods to decrease the perinatal morbidity in our unit. From October 1972 to December 1974 the most important antenatal, intrapartum and postpartum data on 2210 deliveries were coded. In 98% of the cases continuous fetal monitoring was performed.

[Critical analysis of a high percentage of caesarean section, particularly with regard to infantile morbidity (author's transl)].

Unlabelled: In 354 Caesarean section deliveries during 1972 to 1974 the data of history, course of pregnancy, delivery and postoperative period including cardiotocography before and during birth and the condition of the newborn up to the 7th day were analyzed with a computer.

Results: In two thirds of the cases three or more risks determined the indication for Caesarean section. Identical combinations of risks were rare.

Some remarks concerning the fetal heart rate total dip areas.

It was ascertained whether the sum total of the dip areas 60 minutes prior to delivery is an evaluating parameter for judging the fetal state. The cardiotokograms of 62 deliveries with a normal newborn state (newborn index 1) and forty with a pathological newborn state (newborn index 2 and 3) were digitally computer [5]. By proper programming numerous decriptive dip parameter can be determined, e.
