The relationship of dietary fat to atherosclerotic disease.

Atherosclerosis is the Number One public health problem. Many factors have been implicated in the pathogenesis of this disease. Prominent among these factors is the amount and kind of fat in the diet. The evidence now appears to be conclusive that sufficient quantities of polyunsaturated fat in the diet, with proportional decrease in saturated fat, will result in major decrease in blood lipid. Some evidence indicates that such blood lipid lowering produces a desirable effect upon existing atherosclerosis. Much additional time and work will be required to clarify the prophylactic and therapeutic value of this type of dietary approach.

Treatment of diabetic patients; observations on the use of carbutamide and tolbutamide.

Of a group of 32 patients with diabetes, 26 had a favorable modification of the disease in response to administration of butyl-sulfonyl-urea. All but one of the patients who had good response were past the age of 38. All diabetic patients included in this group were those with little or no tendency to ketosis after cessation of insulin administration. No toxic manifestations were noted except for a slight decrease in leukocytes in one case.
