Histone and non-histone proteins from rabbit mammary gland at late pregnancy and early lactation.

The content of non-histone protein in epithelial cell chromatin from rabbit mammary gland increased during late pregnancy and early lactation up to 30%, while the histone content remained unchanged. No qualitative changes, as judged by polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, were found during accumulation of non-histone proteins at the onset of lactation. The chromatin isolated at lactation, assayed either by polylysine or Toluidine Blue binding, contained slightly more available DNA-phosphate than the chromatin isolated at pregnancy.

[Complex treatment of patients with multiple sclerosis].

Comprehensive treatment, including pharmacotherapy, rehabilitation, psychotherapy and ultrasound stimulation of the lymphatic system by the method of Seltzer is given to multiple sclerosis patients at the hospital department for these patients. In the first year of treatment three courses of ultrasound sessions are given with 24 sessions in each course, in the second year two such courses are given, and in the following years one course is given yearly. The present material comprised 45 patients after 7 or 8 courses of treatment in the hospital. The neurological status of each patient was evaluated before the first course and after the last one using a score scale containing the most important clinical parameters. Is was found that these therapeutic methods had only a negligible effect on paresis of the extremities, but it seems that they influenced favourably eye signs, particularly nystagmus, and cerebellar tremor. The greatest improvement was obtained in sphincter disturbances, especially in pollakiuria and urinary incontinence. The effect of ultrasound alone on the obtained results could not have been assessed. Investigations would be necessary for this purpose which are not done in this hospital.

[A case of transverse myelitis with good outcome].

The study presents a case of transverse myelitis in a 22 year old male. MRI was used to establish the diagnosis. It ought to be mentioned that, according to the medical literature, cases with paraplegia and total sensory loss have a rather poor prognosis. Hence the described case is a rare example of transverse myelitis which was successfully treated.
