[The organization of the cortex in ciliates: an example of inheriting an acquired trait].

Observations and experiments concerning morphology, morphogenesis and regeneration of ciliates impose the conclusion that the cortex plays a determining role in the arrangement of kinetics and that its organization is not commanded by the genome but behaves as an acquired hereditary character.

Treatment of perennial allergic rhinitis by local hyperthermia.

Ninety-five patients with documented perennial allergic rhinitis have been treated with local hyperthermia of the nasal passages in a randomized double-blind trial. The treatment consisted of one series of three 30-min insufflations of humidified air at 43 degrees C at a 2-hr interval. In the active treatment group, 75% (P less than 0.00003) and 68% (P less than 0.00001) of the patients were free of symptoms 1 week and 1 month, respectively, after treatment, compared with a 28% and 17% response in the placebo group. We conclude that local hyperthermia is effective in the treatment of perennial allergic rhinitis.

[Treatment of infectious coryza and persistent allergic rhinitis with thermotherapy].

Local hyperthermia--insufflation in the upper respiratory paths of humidified air at 43 degrees C, three 30 min sessions at 2-3 hrs. interval--cures a high percentage of infective Coryza and exerts a prolonged beneficial effect on an important fraction of persistent allergic rhinitis.
