[Short term effects of carbon disulfide on the intracardial irritation development and transmission in the rat].

Studies were conducted into effects of acute and subacute CS2 application on intracardiac irritability and conduction in rat. Aconitine-induced arrhythmia and the coronary occlusion method were used as pathophysiological models. Under physiological conditions, short-time exposure to CS2 caused deceleration of intracardiac impulse conduction, while under pathophysiological conditions, modified arrhythmia or reduced survival rate was the result.

[Causal treatment of stinging insect allergy].

Allergic reactions following stings by bees and vespids are not frequent but often dramatic. Immunotherapy may be of vital importance and was made up to now by wholebody extracts. Meanwhile we know the superiority of pure venoms. Considering the risks and costs of venom immunotherapy indication must be very strict however. Treatment should be started in specialized centres. 50 patients where treated with Reless -insect venoms. From this experience results the "Darmstädter Schema" of rush hyposensitization. By this schedule accumulate effects become less, maximum dose will be reached in 5 days, patients are not so stressed and treatment costs go down.

[Animal experiments and clinical observations on poisoning with metallic mercury].

Albino rats of an own culture strain exposed to mercury were investigated electroneurographically. A disturbance of the motor nerve conduction of the ischiadic and the tibial nerve could not be established after one year. Workers exposed to mercury of two chemical plants of the district of Halle were examined neurologically and electrophysiologically. The motor nerve conduction was measured on eight peripheral nerves. The measuring values above all deviate from the normal value up to 10% more infrequently up to 20% or more.
