Hypoglycaemia in an inner-city accident and emergency department: a 12-month survey.

In a 12-month survey on the causes and frequency of hypoglycaemia presenting to an inner-city accident and emergency department, a total of 86 cases were recorded. A missed meal and/or alcohol ingestion accounted for most of the precipitating causes, being 52% and 21% respectively. As 49% of subjects presented with major clinical manifestations of hypoglycaemia (fit or coma), greater emphasis is required in the instruction on regularity of meal and caution with alcohol in high-risk groups such as the diabetic and also in non-diabetic groups.

Cold sores-an epidemiological survey.

A survey was carried out in a general practice in North Wales to determine the incidence, frequency, duration, and severity of cold sores. Of the 1,855 adults interviewed, 46 per cent gave a definite history of having had a cold sore at some time while 28 per cent continued to have one or more a year. More than half of the latter considered their sores of moderate or severe inconvenience.
