[Liver cirrhosis in Israel (author's transl)].

The incidence of death caused by cirrhosis of the liver has increased in Israel during the last 20 years as it has in other parts of the world; still the incidence is much lower than in most countries. Increasing alcoholism and higher rates of hepatitis probably play a role, however in many cases the cause of cirrhosis remains in the dark.

Impotence and peptic ulcer.

Two hundred and eighty male patients were examined for either peptic ulcer or impotence. Thirty-six of these suffered from impotence in association with duodenal or stomach ulcer. Surprisingly, all thirty-six patients, having been afflicted with both conditions, complained about only one of them, those with ulcers not having been disturbed by their impotence and vice versa.
