[Gamma-glutamyltransferase and alcohol consumption in primary gout].

The behaviour of gamma-GT, an enzyme whose activity is related with alcohol intake, was studied in three groups of patients with primary gout, divided on the basis of alcohol intake. Poor drinkers (A) and good drinkers (B) do not show significant differences in the serum levels of gamma-GT, uric acid and triglycerides. The above parameters are highest in the group of strong drinkers (C), in which the increase in serum gamma-GT activity is statistically significant and reaches values above the normal range.

[Pulmonary aspergillosis. Presentation of an anatomo-clinical case of lobitis].

A case of pulmonary aspergillosis in an elderly, wasted patient is described from the clinical and anatomopathological points of view. The different ways in which pulmonary aspergillosis presents in humans are reviewed and the different factors favouring onset of the disease, which has become commoner in recent years, are considered. Finally, stress is laid on the anatomoclinical aspects of the case which, unlike those typical of aspergillosic pneumonia, also presented cavital zones.

Xanthine oxidase activity in a gouty patient with partial deficiency of HGPRT.

A patient with juvenile gout and partial deficiency of HGPRT is presented. In this subject, hepatic xanthine oxidase activity showed a twelve-fold increase. Xanthine oxidase is a readily induced enzyme and this increased activity is probably correlated with the increased availability of hypoxanthine observed in such patients.
