Under investigation were 151 patients with peptic ulcer (68), postresective disorders (8), non-incarcerated hernias (20), chronic gastritis (11), appendicitis (7), cholecystitis (5) and healthy people (32). The ulcerous disease, especially when complicated, is accompanied by increased activity of the kallikrein-kinin system. Certain deviations are observed in postresective disorders. These disorders were found to increase within the first day after operations on the stomach and in less degree after other interventions. Later these symptoms tended to normalize. The kinin activity was influenced by the severity of the operation trauma and anesthesia. Sufficient preoperative preparation and use of kontrikal resulted in less disturbance in the kinin system.

Aphasia classifications and specialized language batteries differ across the fields of neurodegenerative disorders and lesional brain injuries, resulting in difficult comparisons of language deficits across etiologies. In this study, we present a simplified framework, in which a widely-used aphasia battery captures clinical clusters across disease etiologies and provides a quantitative and visual method to characterize and track patients over time. The framework is used to evaluate populations representing three disease etiologies: stroke, primary progressive aphasia (PPA), and post-operative aphasia.
