[Idiopathic lung hemosiderosis in a 3-year-old child following ductus ligation in the neonatal period].

A premature girl (birth weight 1 405 g, gestational age 32 weeks) was mechanically ventilated for 36 days because of respiratory distress, pulmonary hemorrhage and ductus arteriosus. The hemodynamically active ductus was ligated on the 22nd day of life. At the age of three years a mycoplasma pneumonia and a pulmonary hemosiderosis developed. The possible etiologic role of the neonatal lung problems and the mycoplasma infection for the pulmonary hemosiderosis is discussed. Because a similar case has thus for not been reported the coincidence may be by chance.

[Peroxidase activity in the paw of animals in adjuvant arthritis and its changes by antiphlogistics in vitro].

The peroxidase activity is increased in the inflamed paw of rats with adjuvant arthritis. The increase is biphasic like for other enzymes. The higher peak occurs during primary inflammation in the injected paw according to the behaviour of polymorphonuclear leucocytes. Of 32 substances tested in vitro, among them 19 antiphlogistics and derivatives, especially the antiphlogistics inhibited the peroxidase reaction. Therfore it seems not unlikely that inhibition of the peroxidase reaction is involved in the mechanism of activity of anti-inflammatory agents.
