Growth hormone secreting carcinoma of lung and hypertrophic osteoarthropathy.

Plasma Human Growth Hormone (HGH) was raised in a patient with bronchial carcinoma and hypertrophic pulmonary osteoarthropathy before radiotherapy to the tumour. Though the soft-tissue swelling and pain of hypertrophic osteoarthropathy disappeared two to three weeks after radiotherapy to the carcinoma the HGH plasma levels were still very high at two months and came back to normal levels at six months and remained so at one year. It is suggested that ectopic production of HGH by the tumour in this case was not responsible for the changes of hypertrophic osterarthropathy.

A new method for the production of experimental diabetes in rabbits.

Oral administration of 250 mg hydrochlorothiazide/kg, with previous i.v. injection of 4 i.u. soluble insulin or s.c. injection of protamine-zinc insulin, has been found to produce stable hyperglycaemia in rabbits irrespective of sex. It is thought that insulin helps the selective action of hydrochlorothiazide on the beta cells by removing the protective glucose barrier. Although stimulation of glucagon or some extra-pancreatic mechanism at the initial stage could not be altogether ruled out, the central action of the drug is supported by the finding that the hydrochlorothiazide-induced hyperglycaemia was lowered by the sulphonylurea derivative, chlorpropamide.
