[Alpha-1 antitrypsin and idiopathic respiratory distress of the newborn infant. Study in serum and lungs].

Serum level of alpha-1-antitrypsin is significantly reduced in newborns with idiopathic respiratory distress when compared to matched controls. This decrease was predominantly due to the group of infants who died from I.R.D., provided that alpha-1-antitrypsin determination was carried out on the first day of life. Alpha-1-antitrypsin was demonstrable by indirect immunofluorescence in hyaline membranes whereas fluorescence was negative in the alveolae of infants who had no hyaline membranes.

[Ultrastructure of the blood platelets in the newborn infant and in the young mongolian child. Study of 13 cases].

Blood platelets from infant and new born mongolians were examined and compared taking into consideration existing or non existing haematologic anomalies, such as transitory leucoblastosis with or without hyperthrombocytosis and acute leucosis without thrombopenia. These abnormalities were correlated with the analysis of control samples from haematologically normal new-born and premature children as well as samples from adult mongolian, patients with other chromosomal alterations (13-15, phi) and new-born or adults with thrombocytosis. The presence of dysmorphic platelets could be observed in variable degrees and numbers in all the mongolian samples. The characters of the morphologic abnormalities, constantly observed with variations due to pathological causes, denote either metabolic or structural thrombopathy.
