[Long-term results of 2-stage flexor tendon grafting].

The authors report the results of 85 two-stage tendon grafts (with Silastic rod preparation and subsequent tendon grafting) in which the evaluation was based upon the classification of Buck-Gramcko. The time between the end of treatment and physical evaluation varied from three to six years. The interpretation of the results was based on the analysis of the preoperative state according to the nature of the lesion and the severity of the injury (Boyes/Hunter).

The transport of D-glucose, L-glucose and D-mannose across the isolated guinea pig placenta.

Studies were carried out on the transport of 3H-D-glucose, 14C-L-glucose and 3H-D-mannose across the isolated artificially perfused guinea pig placenta and the inhibition of these transports by phloretin was investigated. 1. In 10 out of 13 placentas the transfer of D-glucose exceeds that of L-glucose.
