Evaluation of clinical signs and symptoms in active deep venous thrombosis of the calf.

The diagnostic value of 16 signs and symptoms of active deep venous thrombosis of the calf (ADVTC) is analysed. Thirty-nine patients suspected of ADVTC were examined clinically using 16 symptoms and signs, the 125I-fibrinogen uptake test and X-ray phlebography. Active thrombosis was confirmed in 19 patients, in 20 patients the diagnosis of post-thrombotic syndrome was established. The pattern recognition procedure, carried out with the aid of 16 symptoms and signs only by a computer, was able to differentiate both conditions with 95% sensitivity and 90% specificity. The data do not comprise unexamined asymptomatic ADVTC, which type of ADVTC it is impossible to detect. The most important signs for recognition of ADVTC appeared to be (in the order of importance): painful calf pressure, a positive Meyer sign, asymmetrical oedema and a painful Lowenberg test between 80 and 139 mmHg, i.e. a painful calf and asymmetrical oedema.

Circatrigintan (30 +/- 5 d) variations of the cellular component of female urethral expulsion fluid. A biometrical study.

Data on the amount of uroepithelial squamous cells released into the fluid of urethral expulsions were obtained in a 37-year-old multipara by daily five consecutive repeated applications of the digital stimulation technique, carried out over the period of one and a half of her menstrual cycle. During the secretory phase of the cycle the rate of the cellular component was far higher than during the proliferative phase. These quantitative biometrically analysed data provide a complementary picture to the qualitative cytological changes of uroepithelial squamous cells occurring during the menstrual cycle that have been reported so far.

[Quantification of the differential diagnosis of Cushing's syndrome using computers].

The possibility to separate 11 patients with anatomically and histologically proven Cushing's syndrome from those 23 with Cushing's syndrome imitating obesity on the basis of 2 anamnestical, 10 physical and 8 basic laboratory and instrumental examinations was studied with the aid of a pattern recognition procedure by computer. Both groups were well distinguished one from another. The sensitivity of Cushing's diagnosis was 73%, its specificity 100% and effectivity 91%. The most important sign appeared the muscle hypotrophy of the proximal limb girdle.
