Cyclic activity of the nasal mucosa: relationship between muco-ciliary transport and local production of secretory immunoglobulin [Attività ciclica della mucosa nasale: relazione tra trasporto muco-ciliare e produzione locale di immunoglobuline secretorie]
The aim of the present work has been to study the existence, presumed on the basis of recollection, of a correlation between circadian changes in SIgA concentrations in nasal secretum and the M.C.T. rate throughout the day. In order to reconfirm previously obtained data, again in this case a fluctuation in SIgA concentration was studied, finding peak values at 4 a.m. and the lowest at 10 a.m. Circadian changes were also witnessed between M.C.T. times, thus making it possible to reveal further information regarding cyclic activity of the nasal mucosa. Comparison of these two parameters showed an inverse rate; in fact, when the SIgA concentration increases the muco-ciliary transport rate decreases and vice versa. In other words, the muco-ciliary transport time is more efficient when the production of secretory immunoglobulins by the nasal mucosa is lower, as though a temporary lack in nasal defense is made up for by simultaneous improvement of the other activity
Studio delle immunoglobuline del secreto nasale in soggetti sottoposti a crenoterapia solfurea
Transtympanic iontophoresis: personal experience
After having described the method of application used for iontophoresis and the results of previous studies carried out by other authors in the hope of finding a definite use for its clinical application, the authors present their personal experience carried out with the use of various chemical substances applied to both the guinea pig and to man. The chemicals taken into consideration were those used in the treatment of otitis media: anti-inflammatory, antibiotic, and mucolytic products. Iontophoresis proved to be a simple and effective method for the treatment of certain middle ear diseases, and offered a more rapid recovery in comparison with subjects treated uniquely by traditional methods
