EuroCare 10, Dialysis Center Debrecen, Hungary.
Plasma homocysteine and Cystatin C levels of 360 chronic haemodialysed patients were measured in fasting (191 men, mean age: 55.5 years; and 169 women, mean: 62.9 years).

A pronounced obliterative microangiopathy of the deep cerebral white matter is one of the cardinal features in classical cases of Binswanger's encephalopathy. We have characterised the alterations taking place in the intima, media and adventitia of obliterated arterial vessels in seven autopsy cases of this encephalopathy. The adventitia of fibrosed vessels showed immunoreactive material indicating a marked deposition of normally occurring collagen types, i.

Obliterative bronchiolitis remains the major obstacle to long-term survival after lung transplantation. Herein we provide a brief review of the key literature as well as our own experience with this condition. Obliterative bronchiolitis has occurred in up to two-thirds of all lung transplant recipients.

A score system was used to quantify the arteriosclerotic lesions. The arterial alterations of the examined 90 extremities were studied in the pelvic (common and external iliac arteries), femoral (common, superficial, deep femoral and popliteal arteries) and crural (anterior and posterior tibial arteries) regions.

It has been established that phagocytic cells are integral components of advanced arteriosclerotic plaques but their role in plaque formation remains unclear. Therefore, toxic agents, such as superoxide anion produced by polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNLs) were studied in a clinically defined group of arteriosclerotic patients suffering from obliterative arteriosclerosis of the lower legs. Owing to a close correlation between O2- generation and calcium, the intracellular free calcium concentrations of PMNLs were measured in a resting state and after stimulation with various agents, for example, opsonized zymosan (OZ), the chemotactic peptide f-met-leu-phe (FMLP), and the calcium ionophore A23187.
