[Salivary electrolytes, digitalis glycosides and cardiac insufficiency].

In a group of 29 patients treated with digoxin for cardiac failure, only 16 showed increased calcium and potassium concentrations in saliva. There was no correlation in the 29 patients between serum digoxin levels and concentrations of salivary electrolytes. On the other hand, in 4 normal subjects treated with digoxin no change in salivary electrolytes was noted. It is concluded that modifications in salivary electrolytes seen in patients with cardiac failure treated with digitalis are not due to this drug. However, a retrospective clinical study showed a good correlation between clinical signs of cardiac failure and increased levels of salivary calcium, potassium and CaX Kproduct. It is suggested that this phenomenon is due to the well-known adrenergic stimulation in patients with cardiac failure.

[Study of critical values of plasma concentration of cholesterol in hospitalized patients by an enzymatic method].

The concentration of plasma cholesterol was measured in 794 women and 832 men by a method of enzyme analysis. The populations studied were composed of patients in hospital. The critical values were drawn up using parametric and nonparametric statistical methods. The serum cholesterol varied in these populations between 3.0 and 8.5 mmol/l and neither age nor sex modified seriously these values.
