Sarcoidosis in Europe: a cooperative study.

The data on the epidemiologic situation of sarcoidosis from 24 countries of Europe have been reviewed. The new facts seem to demonstrate that the differences between the frequency of this disease in the north and south are not real. The actual situation is dependent on the general knowledge of this disease and on the extent and intensity of the active detection of its asymptomatic stage. A new prospective cooperative study of the yearly incidence of all forms of sarcoidosis in the total population of at least some European countries would be desirable.

Medical care of athletes in the era of performance enhancing drugs of sport (PEDOS) syndrome.

We have arrived at a watershed in the fight against drugs in sport. This must not be looked upon as a war. War eventually has winners and losers. In the fight against drugs in sport we have a major ethical, educational, financial, health and management problem. The solution to the problem will be complex. At this moment in time there is a suggestion that we move away from sports administering the problem, to governments doing the job of controlling drugs in sport. We must remind ourselves that there is no track record for governments doing the job. Perhaps representatives from the two groups, to include athletes, sports administrators, politicians, doctors with an interest in pharmacology, endocrinology, respiratory medicine, sport, and rehabilitation, pharmacists, lawyers, medical and political administrators and laboratory personnel, under the chairmanship of a compassionate person working together may be the answer.
