[Isolation of bacterial L forms from the joint fluid in rheumatoid arthritis in children].

In the bacteriological study of intra-articular fluid in 22 children with rheumatoid arthritis the L-forms were isolated in 11. Of these, 7 had not been treated with preparations of the penicillin series. The complete isolation of the focus of inflammation from the environment and the presence of the L-forms of bacteria in the children who had not been treated with preparations of the penicillin series gave us grounds for conclusions on the etiological and pathological significance of the L-forms of streptococci in rheumatoid arthritis.

[Preliminary results of a bacteriologic study of the blood and urine of children with nephritis].

Single examination of the urine and blood by the method described in this paper was carried out in 14 children suffering from glomerulonephritis. L-form cultures were isolated in 11 cases. The cultures were isolated both at the active phase and during the remission. Three L-form cultures reverted into streptococci spontaneously. The revertants showed a sharp difference from the L-forms by the cell morphology and also by the colour and morphology of the colonies.

[Certification of medical devices].

The importance and peculiarities of certification of medical devices are analysed. The attention is focused on classification of devices which are potentially risky in application. The application aspects of the EU 93/42 Directive, i.e. a fundamental document in design, elaboration, production, sale and maintenance of medical devices are detailed.
