Association of juvenile and adenomatous polyposis with pulmonary arteriovenous malformation and hypertrophic osteoarthropathy.

The juvenile form is the usual type of colonic polyp seen during childhood. However, mixed forms associating juvenile and adenomatous polyps have been reported. A syndrome including the association of generalized juvenile polyposis, pulmonary arteriovenous malformation, and hypertrophic osteoarthropathy has been described in three cases; however, this is the first report of the association of mixed juvenile and adenomatous polyposis, pulmonary arteriovenous malformation, and hypertrophic osteoarthropathy.

Effect of taurine supplements on growth, fat absorption and bile acid on cystic fibrosis.

We have evaluated the effect of taurine supplementation nutritional status, steatorrhea and bile acid in twenty two Cystic Fibrosis patients. Weight increased in fifty per cent and height in forty eight per cent of them. Steatorrhea improved significantly in six patients of group II. Glycine/taurine ratio was reduced. Bile acid malabsorption improved only in the patients with high degree of steatorrhea. Serum bile acid was observed significantly elevated in both groups. This results suggest that taurine supplementation can be useful adjunct from of therapy in Cystic Fibrosis patients with fat malabsorption.

IgG response against infective larvae of Dirofilaria immitis in experimentally infected cats.

Somatic antigens from third stage larvae of Dirofilaria immitis (SL3) were used to detect IgG response against heartworm infection in 8 experimentally infected cats. A moderate specific anti-SL3 IgG response was found one month post-infection. Afterwards, antibodies decreased reaching a basal level 4 months post-infection and remained at this level until the end of the study. 6 months post-infection. Western blot analysis showed specific recognition of polypeptides of 79, 73, 60, 52, 40 and 39 kDa by sera from infected cats 1 month post-infection, but not by sera taken prior to the infection. The low antigenicity of the SL3 antigen in the cat should allow the parasite to escape the host's immune response.

[Oral-facial-digital syndrome in male (author's transl)].

One case of oral-facial-digital syndrome (Papillon-Léage and Psaume) is presented. This is the second one reported on a patient with normal male karyotipe. Clinical data and genetic aspects are commented in relation with this new case in a 46 XY male.

[Chronic diarrhea and intestinal cytomegalic inclusion (author's transl)].

A case of chronic diarrhea resistent to treatment is presented. At autopsy a cytomegalic inclusion disease localized only in the gastrointestinal tract was found. This case seems to be a confirmation to the hypothesis that the cytomegalovirus may be cause of gastrointestinal disturbances in infants.
