[Skin and bronchial provocation tests with inhalation allergens in asthmatics].

The examination was performed in 122 asthmatics with mean age of 32 years. Intracutaneous tests with inhalation allergens of 1200 PNU (protein nitrogen units) and bronchoprovocation tests with histamine and inhalation allergens of pollen and homedust. Effects of allergens of homedust and pollen obtained by intracutaneous and bronchoprovocation tests were compared. The Fischer exact test showed no statistically significant relationship between tests (intracutaneous and bronchoprovocation) for allergens of pollen and homedust (p = 0.081, p greater than 0.05, that is, p = 0.702, p greater than 0.05).

[Treatment of porphyria cutanea tarda using plasma exchange].

Results in the treatment of 5 patients with porphyria cutanea tarda by plasma exchange are presented. The procedure was applied every second or third day, 2-4 procedures in total. Saline solution, 5% or 12% albumin were used as plasma substitutes. The treatment lead to rapid fall in urine porphyrin level and improved clinical picture. The treatment was continued ambulatorily by 60 mg of vitamin E tbl. daily and Essentiale tbl. 3 X 1, which lead to further progressive fall in porphyrin level and improved clinical picture. In one patient citrate intoxication occurred which was prevented by Calcium Sandosten ampl.
