HEMATOCRIT AND HEMOGLOBIN, ATP AND DPG CONCENTRATIONS IN ANDEAN MAN: VARIABILITY BY SEX, AGE, VILLAGE, ALTITUDE, WEIGHT, SMOKING HABITS AND GENETIC CONSTITUTION

The Departmento de Arica in northern Chile was chosen as the investigation site for a study of the role of certain hematologic and glycolytic variables in the physiological and genetic adaptation to hypoxia.^ The population studied comprised 876 individuals, residents of seven villages at three altitudes: coast (0-500m), sierra (2,500-3,500m) and altiplano (> 4,000m). There was an equal number of males and females ranging in ages from six to 90 years. Although predominantly Aymara, those of mixed or Spanish origin were also examined. The specimens were collected in heparinized vacutainers precipitated with cold trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and immediately frozen to -196(DEGREES)C. Six variables were measured. Three were hematologic: hemoglobin, hematocrit and mean cell hemoglobin concentration. The three others were glycolytic: erythrocyte 2,3-diphosphoglycerate (DPG), adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and the percentage of phosphates (DPG + ATP) in the form of DPG.^ Hemoglobin and hematocrit were measured on site. The DPG and ATP content was assayed in specimens which had been frozen at -196(DEGREES)C and transported to Houston. Structured interviews on site provided information as to lifestyle and family pedigrees.^ The following results were obtained: (1) The actual village, rather than the altitude, of examination accounted for the greatest proportion of the variance in all variables. In the coast, a large difference in levels of ionic lithium in the drinking water exists. The chemical environment of food and drink is postulated to account, in part, for the importance of geographic location in explaining the observed variance. (2) Measurements of individuals from the two extreme altitudes, coast and altiplano, did not exhibit the same relationship with age and body mass. The hematologic variables were significantly related to both age and body build in the coast. The glycolytic variables were significantly related to age and body mass in the altiplano. (3) The environment modified male values more than female values in all variables. The two sexes responded quite differently to age and changes in body mass as well. The question of differing adaptability of the two sexes is discussed. (4) Environmental factors explained a significantly higher proportion of total variability in the altiplano than in the coast for hemoglobin, hematocrit and DPG. Most of the ATP variability at both altitudes is explained by genetic factors. ^

THE APPLICATION OF PATH ANALYSIS TO ASSESSMENT OF IRON NUTRITIONAL STATUS IN MAN

Path analysis has been applied to components of the iron metabolic system with the intent of suggesting an integrated procedure for better evaluating iron nutritional status at the community level. The primary variables of interest in this study were (1) iron stores, (2) total iron-binding capacity, (3) serum ferritin, (4) serum iron, (5) transferrin saturation, and (6) hemoglobin concentration. Correlation coefficients for relationships among these variables were obtained from published literature and postulated in a series of models using measures of those variables that are feasible to include in a community nutritional survey. Models were built upon known information about the metabolism of iron and were limited by what had been reported in the literature in terms of correlation coefficients or quantitative relationships. Data were pooled from various studies and correlations of the same bivariate relationships were averaged after z- transformations. Correlation matrices were then constructed by transforming the average values back into correlation coefficients. The results of path analysis in this study indicate that hemoglobin is not a good indicator of early iron deficiency. It does not account for variance in iron stores. On the other hand, 91% of the variance in iron stores is explained by serum ferritin and total iron-binding capacity. In addition, the magnitude of the path coefficient (.78) of the serum ferritin-iron stores relationship signifies that serum ferritin is the most important predictor of iron stores in the proposed model. Finally, drawing upon known relations among variables and the amount of variance explained in path models, it is suggested that the following blood measures should be made in assessing community iron deficiency: (1) serum ferritin, (2) total iron-binding capacity, (3) serum iron, (4) transferrin saturation, and (5) hemoglobin concentration. These measures (with acceptable ranges and cut-off points) could make possible the complete evaluation of all three stages of iron deficiency in those persons surveyed at the community level. ^

MEDICINE MAN IN TEXAS

The author George (Georgia?) Plunkett Red was the wife of Samuel Clark Red (1861-1940). Dr. Red was the son of Texas pioneer physician Dr. George Clark Red. Dr. Samuel Clark Red was “the county physician of Harris County, one of the organizers of the Harris County Medical Society, a fellow of the American College of Surgeons, and president of the Texas Medical Association.” Not much is known about the author, but given her husband’s position and family history, it can be surmised that she was interested in history and had access to some of the children of other pioneer medical families. There is a brief bibliography for each of the chapters. Part Two of the book consists of biographies of physicians from Texas Counties.

Uso de trampas "Barber" para determinar la diversidad de coleópteros epígeos asociados al cultivo de maní (Arachis hypogaea L.). Córdoba, Argentina

El objetivo fue estudiar la diversidad de coleópteros epígeos en el cultivo de maní, su composición taxonómica y su hábito alimenticio, a fin de aportar conocimientos acerca de especies potencialmente dañinas o benéficas al cultivo. Durante las campañas agrícolas 2004/05, 2005/06 y 2006/07 se colocaron 10 trampas Barber en un lote de maní ubicado en la localidad de Olaeta (Córdoba, Argentina). Se instalaron siguiendo un diseño en "X" dentro del lote en el momento de la siembra del cultivo y se dejaron hasta la cosecha. La colecta se realizó con una frecuencia semanal y el material fue identificado y cuantificado. Se determinó la frecuencia y constancia de cada especie colectada y la riqueza de especies fue calculada a través del Índice de diversidad de Simpson. Se registraron 10 familias y dentro de ellas 19 géneros/especies: los individuos fitófagos representaron entre el 66 y el 71%; los predadores entre el 18 y el 27% y los coprófagos entre el 2 y el 16% en los tres ciclos estudiados. La mayor diversidad (0,80-0,82) se obtuvo entre mediados de diciembre y principios de enero. Las especies fitófagas que se encontraron podrían comportarse como plagas para el cultivo.
