E VALUATION OF ADENYLATE CYCLASE ACTIVITY IN MITRAL VALVE PROLAPSE
نویسنده
چکیده مقاله:
The term mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is used for a particular subset of patients with hyperadrenergic dysautonomia. It occurs when part of a leaflet or both leaflets of the mitral valve extend above the plane of the atrioventricular junction during ventricular systole. The adenylate cyclase activity in MVP dys-autonomia was studied by extraction of enzyme from the erythrocytes from 62 normal subjects and 78 MVP patients. Adenylate cyclase activity in the MVP group was increased compared to that in controls [6.51 ±O.38 (mean±S.D., n= 78) vs. 2.76 ±O.12, n= 62, U activity/mg erythrocyte protein, p<O.05]. The determination of adenylate cyclase activity in combination with echocardiography allows a reliable diagnosis of MVP patients.

Marcus-gunn phenomenon is a congenital and sometimes hereditary anomaly, in which a ptotic eyelid retracts momentarily when the mouth is open, or the jaw is moved. These associated movements attributed to abnormal connections between the central mechanisms innervating the pterygoid and elevator muscles. Sometimes this anomaly is associated with dual,s retraction syndrome, duplex kindneys and ur...

For half a century the systolic click and late systolic murmur lay dormant as innocent auscultatory curiosities. The thirteen years since Barlow related these phenomena to mitral leaflet prolapse have witnessed an astonishing information explosion. We have sought to bring together the accumulated data in this review. An Historical Perspective traces the evolution from the now abandoned "pericar...
