Glycoproteins behaviour in ankylopoietic spondylarthritis.

Glycoproteins behaviour in ankylopoietic spondylarthritis (SA) is studied by dosing sialic acid in blood and urine on 12 patients in comparison with 10 rheumatoid polyarthritis (RP) and 39 other nonspecific osteo-articular disease cases; the values are referred to those found on normal persons. A significant statistic increase of the sialic acid is found in SA. There are also comparatively studied, on the same lots of patients, the ratio albumin/globulin (A/G), the values of the proteinaemia, of the globulins and the blood sedimentation rate (BSR).

Vectorcardiographic analysis of the QRS loop in hypertensive heart disease.

The authors made a quantitative and qualitative vectorcardiographic analysis (Frank lead system) in 47 patients with hypertensive heart disease compared with a control group of 16 normal subjects. The magnitude and the angle of the maximum QRS vector, the sense of rotation of the QRS loop, the magnitude of the maximum posterior deflection (Sz), of the anterior maximum one (Rz), of the maximum leftward one (Rx), and of the maximum rightward one (Qx), the length (L) and the width W) of the QRS loop, as well as the angle of the maximum T vector were measured. A significant difference, in all planes of the maximum QRS magnitude between the normals and the AHT was found, while the maximum QRS angle was not significantly different. The quantitative analysis of the veg made in the horizontal plane revealed significant differences for the Sz, Rx, L, and the relation Rz/Sz. The quantitative analysis made according to Varriale et al. (1966) revealed a prevalence of the cases of type I A (72.3%) and I B (21.3%).
