[The hematocrit values and hemoglobin content of blood and the level of total protein, free fatty acids, glucose, lactate, Ca, Mg, Na, K, Pa, Fe, Fe-binding capacity, Cu and Zn in the blood plasma of newborn calves and their mothers immediately after birth].

Blood samples were collected from 22 calves in three weight classes (A: 29.3 +/- 0.5 kg, B: 36.0 +/- 1.3 kg, C: 42.7 +/- 3.7 kg), 1-3 minutes after parturition and prior to uptake of foremilk as well as 24-26 hours after parturition. Other blood samples were collected from 45 calves, 5-60 minutes after parturition, and from their mothers, 3-5 or 5-60 minutes from calving. Haematocrit and haemoglobin in the blood of the calves, immediately after parturition, were higher the values recorded from adult cattle. Major differences were found to exist between individual calves regarding total protein of blood plasma. Protein levels in 14 calves were below 50 g/l, within 24-26 hours from parturition. Free fatty acids in blood plasma of calves were lower than those in cattle, 1-3 minutes from parturition, and were higher, 5-60 minutes from parturition. Glucose levels in Group C were higher than those in A and B, 1-3 minutes postpartum. Lactate in Group C was higher than that in B. An account is also given of blood plasma levels of Ca, Pa, Mg, Na, K, Cu, and Zn.

[Drug-taking behavior of workers with hypertension in the health service of the Wismut public health district].

In 353 workers with a medicamentously stabilized high blood pressure following an educational lecture on hypertension the compliance was determined by means of a patients' questionnaire. Circa 70% of the hypertensives reported to take regularly the medicaments prescribed, in which cases approximately 50% admitted to discontinue the taking of medicaments without having conferred with the attending physician when the well-being was disturbed. As essential factors influencing the compliance 4 features were determined: the opinion concerning the duration of the treatment of hypertension, the attitude to the prescription of medicaments, the frequency of taking the tablets and the observation of the terms of control of blood pressure, whereas, for instance, age, working place, professional activity and shift work had no remarkable influence. Before long an improvement of the compliance can be achieved by the decrease of the information deficit proved and by an improved motivation in form of the group therapy. A necessary prerequisite is the complete registration and comprehensive treatment in the dispensary of the works medical officer with established control terms, short times of waiting and sufficient time for a talk between physician and patient.

[Epidemiology of chronic bronchitis from the viewpoint of occupational medicine].

In a comprehensive epidemiological study the influence of age, smoking and exposure to dust upon the prevalence of chronic bronchitis could be confirmed and quantified. From the quantified contributing factors it is evident that chronic bronchitis after exposure to dust cannot generally be declared as occupational disease. The relative risk of heavy smokers of 1,9 is of the same order as the relative risk after 20 years' exposure to dust. Individual measures of health control and health care are necessary and should be intensified after 10 years of exposure.

[Content of minerals (Na,K,Ca,Mg) and of trace elements (Fe,Cu and Zn) in 13 different tissues of fallow deer (Dama dama L.) of various ages].

At male deer in the age of 15 and 27 months, at experimentally induced cryptorchids and at castrated animals analyses of the content of Na, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Cu and Zn in 13 different tissues were performed. In the liver of newborn animals solely the content of Fe, Cu and Zn was determined. The significance of the content of the mentioned elements in the various tissues is described. In the liver of the newborn animals stores of Fe, Cu an Zn were identified. The values can be used as a basis for analyses at deer with a growth inhibition caused by a lack of sodium chloride Fe, Cu and Zn.
