SummaryA method for the urographies examination of children, especially those in the early years of life, is described. Treatment of the injection site with hyalas (Leo), dissolved in 0.5 per cent xylocaine (Astra), prepared the area so satisfactorily that the subsequent injection of contrast medium caused little pain and the resistance offered to the injection was lessened. The spread, absorption and consequently also the excretion of the dye were thus accelerated. A satisfactory concentration of dye in the ureters was thus obtained.

摘要:

SummaryEightyfive children treated at a children's hospital for asphyxia neonatorum were subjected to a follow‐up examination. Eighteen died during the newborn period. Sixtyfive of the 67 survivals were followed up. Among them 18 showed signs of a permanent cerebral injury (spasticity, mental retardation, convulsions). The late prognosis was correlated to different clinical symptoms during the newborn period. Children with convulsions, changed tonus, bulging fontanel, reduced sucking capacity have a conspicuously bad prognosi

摘要:

SummaryAt follow‐up examination of 61 children subjected to postnatal treatment for asphyxia neonatorum in the newborn period, 44 disclosed electro‐encephalograpliie changes. Grave pathologic findings were only noted in children who, at the follow‐up, showed somatic and mental defects (14), while children with slight electro‐encephalo‐graphic changes (16) have developed well in all respects up to the age at which the follow‐up were performed, in spite of a neonatal asphyxia. The neonatal asphyxia in these cases is supposed to have produced organic cerebral injuries of such a degree or nature as to disclose no clinical, but simply electro‐encephalogra

摘要:

SummaryThe authors subjected a method, presented by P. KALLOS and L. KALLÓS‐DEFFNER, for ascertaining specific antibodies in allergic subjects by applying human O‐blood corpuscles as allergen‐carrying corpuscles, to a control test. In an investigation series (39 cases), no positive results were obtained either in direct agglutination tests or by Coombs' tec

摘要:

SummaryAn account is given of eight cases of congenital elephantiasis with angiomatosis, in which no hereditary history of the disease was found. It is emphasized that a definite diagnosis can be made by means of histological examination, and that soft‐tissue radiography may often facilitate the diagnosis. The prognosis with regard to spontaneous regression is found to be poor, but the functional ability is usually relatively unimpaired. Various forms of therapy are discussed. In one of the four deaths, the cause was found to be malignancy of the growt

摘要:

Summary1. One hundred children suffering from bronchial asthma, aged 2—15, without a hereditary predisposition for convulsive diseases, and without any convulsive manifestations of their own, were examined with regard to the occurrence of EEG changes.2. Pathological EEG of different degrees and types occurred in 36 cases.3. The type of EEG changes comprised partly a slow dysrhythmia — in about 2/3 of the cases most evident occipitally — partly focal spikes or sharp waves, in 3 cases, and general waves and spike episodes in another 3 cases.4. The occurrence of an allergic heredity, the duration of the asthma and the age of onset showed no correlation to the occurrence of EEG changes.5. The degree of severity of the asthma seems to have a certain relation to the occurrence of pathologica

摘要:

Summary and ConclusionsIntestinal parasitism was the chief cause of ill health in children in hospital. Ascaris lumbricoides was the commonest intestinal parasite and the Trichuris trichiura was the second. The incidence of intestinal parasitism rose with each year of life and was extremely high at 5 years and over.Nutritional disorders were common including many cases of fatty liver and oedema as well as of Vitamin A and riboflavin deficiences. A pre‐Bitot pigmentation which was often the precursor of a Bitot and a “gutter” pigmentation of the lower part of the sclera are described. The former was a vitamin A deficiency and the latter was probably due to combined vitamin A and riboflavin deficiencies.Among the respiratory diseases bronchopneumonia caused a high fatality rate in the age group below 5 years.Gastro‐intestinal disorders showed a peak in incidence during the first year of life, the fatality rate was high also in following years. Salmonellosis was a common cause of diarrhoeas in infancy and early childhood.The vast array of preventable diseases is heartrending. All possible forces and resources of the country should be marshalled and put into action in order to reduce the unnecessary suffering and sorrow caused to children by poverty, superstition, ignorance, wrong food habits and pernicious teaching by those who should know
