Many forms of therapy have been tried for aphthous stomatitis in the past without success. The effect of hydrocortisone was tested because of its anti-inflammatory and antiallergic action. Little benefit was derived from such therapy in a series of 26 patients as far as healing time was concerned but many were noticeably relieved of pain.
Tests were made to determine whether protection against acoustic trauma was afforded by an ear-plug containing a valve designed to close under pressure of intensive noise. The hearing acuity of 34 persons was determined before they participated in target practice on a pistol firing range. Eighteen of them then wore the ear-plugs on the range and 16 did not. Hearing acuity was again determined after the target practice and it was noted that the loss of acuity was considerably less in subjects who had worn the plugs than in those who had not.
