[Infections of Salmonella in children aged 0-36 months--clinical and epidemiological aspects].

In this work we presented a retrospective analysis of Salmonella infections in 163 children aged between 0-36 months. The children were treated in IV Department of Pediatrics at Medical University of Silesia (Poland) in years 1987-1998. We analyzed: clinical course, dependence between age of the patients and the type of Salmonella, number of infections and their seasonal incidence during 12 years of observation.

The results of the interference of nitrates and vitamin E in the metabolism in the connective tissue of rat's liver.

We examined 72 female Wistar rats which were divided into 6 groups. The animals were administered sodium nitrate (V), vitamin E or both compounds at the same time. In order to estimate the interference of nitrates in the presence of vitamin E with the metabolism of rat's liver, we determined the composition and the amount of glycosoaminoglycans (GAGs).
