[Coccidioidomycosis in soldiers of the federal armed forces].

We give a thorough report on coccidioidomycosis, a systemic mycosis only occurring in the New World. We present microorganism, geography, epidemiology, diagnostic procedures, and therapy. A pilot study on German soldiers trained in the endemic areas of the USA demonstrated by means of a positive skin test that 3.73% of them had been infected.

[Incidence of venereal infections in soldiers of the German Federal Armed Forces].

The incidence of venereal diseases in the German Armed Forces is presented with reference to statistics covering a 20-year period. The chief interest is in gonorrhoea and syphilis. The most new admissions were registered in 1960 and 1971 with 605 and 601 per 100,000 men actual strength. On the other hand, in 1926 the numbers in the German Imperial Forces and in the British and American Armies were about 4,000-5,000. Armies of occupation are particularly at risk. Thus, in 1922 25,400 of 100,000 British soldiers in Germany were infected in comparison with only 7,890 in the German army. The number of venereal infections in the German Forces is lower than ever before in the German Forces. Syphilis infections have decreased steadily for years. In 1977 only 80 cases were reported for the entire Federal Forces, among these latent syphilis was predominant. The epidemiological situation in the civil population ought to be similarly favourable.

[Clinical research on a new corticoid-containing topical drug].

In the present paper, the clinical trial of a new difluorinated corticosteroid suitable for topical use is reported. Because of its proven efficacy in very different dermatoses, it is useful as a new reliable product for external use having a broad spectrum of indications. Altogether, 50 patients were treated for a number of dermatoses (various forms of eczema, neurodermitis constitutionalis among other rare skin diseases). Complications, especially skin lesions due to corticosteroids, were not observed. The availability of the test preparation in three different forms has the advantage that it is not only suitable for the primary dermatosis, but it can also be adapted to the various degrees of acuteness.
