[Tuberculosis in the Division of General Medicine: 5 years' experience].

Tuberculosis, yet rare a disease in Acute Medical Units, has to be kept in mind in the medical practice. The Authors reviewed almost five years' experience in an Acute Medical Unit and summarized the clinical aspects of the patients observed. They also highlighted the importance of the history of tbc and predisposing conditions. The usefullness of some investigations in the diagnosis of the disease has been stressed and time from presentation to diagnosis has been evaluated for every patient.

[Screening for anemias in 500 healthy adults].

The clinical cards of 500 healthy adults undergoing check-up have been analysed with a view to picking out clinical and laboratory parameters pointing to anemia. Statistical processing of the data led to a finding of anemia in more than 4% of the people examined. None of the clinical parameters was of assistance in highlighting anemia. Of the laboratory data, the haemochrome finding was the most selective. Further study of information arising out of the haemochrome finding made it possible to identify essentially two forms of anemia: deficiency and microcytic. The study has shown that anemia is a frequent disease and screening is justified. To set in motion a programme of this type, it is enough to carry out a complete haemochrome test; screening is thus cheap and easy to carry out within any health structure.
