Some modification are proposed to standardize better the staining technique of lipoprotein fractions. These modifications facilitate greatly the procedure originally reported by Colfs and Verheyden.
The effect of a combined test (insulin, TRH, LHRH) on plasma concentrations of LH, FSH, PRL, Cortisol was studied in 18 normal subjects in prepubescent state and in 65 patients in prepubescent state with short stature. In 6 subjects with short stature there was no change of LH, and in 7 subjects with short stature there was no change of FSH. In conclusion the combined test for pituitary stimulation provides an useful method for localizing the lesion in disorders of hypothalamo-pituitary axis.
Skin significantly contributes to water turnover excreting 300-600 ml/Day, this aliquot being under the control of several factors, including psychologic factors. The cutaneous evaporimetry offers semeiological parameters useful to study water balance. Our work is an extension of the classic experiments of G.E. Nilsson and coworkers. In the present report evaporimetric measurements are related to 15 normal subjects at ours climatic conditions.
