Contribution to the early diagnosis of diabetes mellitus.

The authors present the results of an investigation for diabetes mellitus (DM), in a selected group of 9,901 persons at high risk for the disease, using oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). In the group investigated they included 4,753 diabetic blood relatives, 4,123 obese patients and 935 women who delivered big babies. The percentage of diagnosed DM was 30.58 for the entire group, with variations between: 39.47 in the obese, 27.27 in women with macrosomia, and 23.35% in the diabetic blood relatives. The results showed the value of OGTT as a diagnostic tool, the importance of early diagnosis and the necessity of careful long time follow-up of the newly diagnosed diabetics.

[The importance of the early diagnosis of primary persistent hyperplastic vitreous].

The early diagnosis of PHPV is often difficult to be established, because of the frequent opacification of the ocular transparent media. So the echography and the computerized tomography, the early surgical intervention using up-to-date techniques in vitreous surgery is imposed, in order to maintain functionally or anatomically the affected globe.

[The criteria for echographic diagnosis in retinoblastoma].

The paper present an echographic survey on 27 pathological eyes suspected to present retinoblastoma, investigated with the same devices and by the same investigator. The diagnosis of retinoblastoma has been echographically put on 13 eyes. We haven't noticed any error on the investigated set since the diagnosis was histopathologically confirmed on 11 eyes. 2 eyes were not enucleated because they had before the enucleation of the contralateral ocular globe. It is discussed the utility of the echographic investigation for the positive and differential diagnosis of the retinoblastoma.

Subacute subdural hematoma.

The subacute subdural hematoma (SASDH) is an entity which is still to be analyzed because the attention of the clinicians was directed towards the acute subdural hematoma (ASDH) and to the chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH). A series of 69 patients with SASDH was studied outlining the particularities of the affection. A trauma caused the hematoma but it was a milder one. The associated cerebral lesions were generally produced by concussion (34%) and cerebral dilacerations represented only 8.4%. Clinical symptoms were obvious between the third and the fourteenth day after trauma due to the cerebral compression. The consciousness was moderately impaired. The patients with GCS < 8 represented 18.9%. The neurological picture stated with time allowed a programmed paraclinical investigation: a. radiography of the skull revealed cranial fractures in 10.1%; b. carotid arteriography showed a lentiform aspect of the avascular space; c. CT presented variable densities (isodensity--3%, hypodensity--14.5%, and hyperdensity--27.5%) depending on the length of the interval between trauma and admission. The operation evacuated the liquid blood collection through a widened burr hole. Death during operation was 17.4% and 79.8% survived.
