Method for conducting a non-invasive screening of the population for carbohydrate metabolism disorders (CMD) has been developed and described. The novelty of the method is that there are no medical standards in the field of endocrinology for the non-invasive type of screening, so the method was based on the results of a clinical study of electrocardiographic abnormalities in patients with CMD, where the method of non-invasive determination of CMD by first-lead ECG was used. During the development of the method, an additional analysis of the ECG sample obtained during the study was performed. As a result of the analysis, it was concluded that the effectiveness of the method (sensitivity and specificity) vary slightly depending on the time of taking an ECG during the day. This means that the patient can come to the screening using the new method of non-invasive detection of CMD not only in the morning and not necessarily on an empty stomach, in contrast to the invasive methods (fasting plasma glucose test and oral glucose tolerance test). To make a decision «there is a suspicion of CMD /there is no suspicion of CMD», the patient only needs to take up to 2 ECGs.

Effective Activator

SummaryThe term “effective activator” of plasminogen is proposed, to denote the resultant of activator-antiactivator interaction, and a method for the determination of the level of these activators is described. By adding axcess plasminogen to the euglobulin fraction of plasma the influence of the level of endogenous plasminogen and of the antiplasmin is eliminated. It is shown that the level of fibrinogen has very little bearing on the results. An effective activator unit is defined as equal to 1 CTA unit of urokinase activity on a fibrinogen-plasminogen substrate.

Plasmin Inhibitors

SummaryA new method for the assay of plasmin inhibitors in human plasma is described. The method consists of determination of the caseinolytic activity of a standard plasmin solution before and after incubation with the inhibitor, with lysine added to the mixture as a stabilizer of plasmin. Using this method, it was found that plasma contains enough inhibitors to inactivate 30 caseinolytic units of plasmin, or 10 times the normal amount of plasminogen in human plasma.

ABSTRACT Various techniques for sensitising erythrocytes and latex particles with gonadotrophins, particularly with HCG, are described. The haemagglutination inhibition reactions are generally interpreted by means of »erythrocyte settling patterns«. By a new method of evaluating these patterns a relatively precise quantitative determination is possible. Latex agglutination inhibition reactions on slides are particularly suitable as rapid qualitative tests. In cases where the maximum attainable sensitivity of the agglutination inhibition tests is insufficient, e. g. for determining LH concentrations in urine, the hormone in the test fluid has to be concentrated or extracted. An alternative method is a modified haemagglutination inhibition test for large volumes which is applicable to unconcentrated urine. Due to non-specific inhibitions the above-mentioned tests cannot be applied to unprocessed serum. Agglutination inhibition tests with HCG are already well advanced, pregnancy diagnosis being their main application. Now that highly purified HCG is available, a satisfactory specificity for these tests can be attained. If the immune system for HCG is used for estimating LH, it has to meet additional specificity requirements. Furthermore, the measure of cross-reaction and the choice of standard merit special attention. Finally, a literature survey is given of test systems in which LH and FSH were used as antigens.
