Suppurative coxitis due to Salmonella typhimurium in systemic lupus erythematosus.

A 36-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) developed septicaemia and subsequently suppurative coxitis due to Salmonella typhimurium. Although systemic treatment with antibiotics eradicated salmonella from the arterial blood, cup arthroplasty and irrigation of the operative wounds with effective antibiotics were needed for eradication of the organism from the affected joints.

The use of tears for diagnosis of GM1 gangliosidosis.

The properties of beta-galactosidase of tears were investigated and the standard assay system was accomplished. The pH optimum was 4.2. The enzyme had a KM of 8.3 X 10(-4) M. The activity was stimulated by chloride ions and slightly stabilized by bovine serum albumin. The activities of normal individuals were 205 +/- 80 (S.D.) nmol/h/ml. The activity in the tears of the patient with GM1 gangliosidosis decreased to about 20% of normal control and this disease could be diagnosed by the assay of beta-galactosidase in tears.
