[Genital lichen sclerosus].

Lichen sclerosus is a chronic inflammatory mucocutaneous disease which origin remains unknown. Its prevalence ranges from one in 300 to one in 1000 of all patients referred to a dermatology clinic in the seventeenth. Through the analysis of a hospital survey, we outline the epidemio-clinical aspects of this dermatosis.

Affinity precipitation of proteins using bis-dyes.

Based on the principle of affinity precipitation of nucleotide-dependent enzymes using bis-NAD (Mosbach), Lowe et al. have recently mentioned the possibility of synthesising bis-dyes for similar applications. In this paper we report preliminary results obtained using bis-dyes in the sulphonamide form got through carbodiimide condensation of the monomer and its aminohexyl derivative for affinity precipitation.

The angina pectoris threshold heart rate as a prognostic sign. Results of a 5-year follow-up.

The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of angina pectoris threshold heart rate (ATHR) in 300 patients aged 27-65 years, suffering from typical angina pectoris and being under follow-up at our institute for at least 5 years. A multistage symptom-limited ergometric test was performed in all examinees at least twice. The patients were divided into two groups.
