[The trans-ulnar approach to the elbow joint].

A lateral approach to the elbow joint by ulnar diaphyseal osteotomy, first reported by Lenehan and Nunamaker (1982), is described. The ulna is transsected distally to the elbow joint. After the joint capsule, the caudal crus of the lateral collateral ligament and the annular ligament of the radius are dissected, the olecranon can be displaced medially.

The role of adipose and hepatic tissues in the lipogenesis of the dog.

In order to determine the main organ of fatty acid synthesis de novo in the dog, glucose-C incorporation into fatty acids and glucose-1-C oxidation to CO2 were measured by means of glucose-U-14C and glucose-1-14C in samples of adipose and hepatic tissues of 16 animals. For comparison of the two organs the data were referred to the respective DNA content. The rate of glucose-C incorporation into fatty acids of adipose tissue exceeded that of hepatic tissue about 1000-fold.

[Fully automatic computer-analysis of electrocardiograms in clinical routine (author's transl)].

A fully automated Ecg recording and interpretation system (Hewlett Packard HP 5) consisting of a central computer and two peripheral units was evaluated during a four-month period. Ecgs were transmitted via public telephone lines, as was the report from central station to peripheral recording and print-out unit. Within a few seconds after recording and print-out unit.
