[Professiographic studies of physical activity of the carpenter in a Berlin construction industry].

The state of health of carpenters is examined in relation to the field associated with their occupations. In this connection the results of occupational medicine concerning examinations for suitability and of observation, the recognised occupational diseases and notifiable industrial accidents are analysed and compared with those of production workers in the building and construction industry. The reasons for higher rates of findings and occupational diseases by carpenters are discussed and conclusions for occupational medical care are drawn.

[Intensive basic therapy decreases the need for drug treatment and improves glucose control: an important result of the diabetes intervention study].

In a period of five years in the diabetes intervention study (DIS), 1,139 diabetics aged 30-55 years, who in a 6-week screening phase had been classified as dietetically manageable, were treated in a controlled randomized study with intensified non-medicamentous basic therapy and--in a double blind trial--with 1,6 g clofibric acid. The essential components of the basic therapy were a fat-modified diet (so-called prudent diet) and recommendations for endurance training. Thus in comparison to the control group we succeeded in performing a ca. 40% decrease of the application of oral antidiabetic drugs. The fasting blood values were, nevertheless, with 155 mg% significantly lower than in the control group (169 mg%). Clofibric acid had no influence neither on the necessity to use insulin or oral antidiabetic drugs nor to the control of glycaemia.
