A comparative study of the extensor force of the quadriceps between subjects with a normal patella and those with patella alta of neurological pathogenesis.

The authors examined 20 subjects with infantile cerebral palsy, 10 of whom had patella alta, in order to evaluate any difference of extensor force of the quadriceps in the various degrees of flexion of the knee as compared with normal subjects. The objective was to reveal and measure any functional differences between the two groups.

[Environmental lead pollution. An epidemiologic study in road gasoline station workers (author's transl)].

Erythrocyte ALA-D and urinary coproporphyrins were investigated in 29 road gasoline station workers in order to detect a possible abnormal lead absorption. The ALA-D test represents the most sensitive laboratory device to detect both abnormal lead absorption and possible initial lesions due to lead poisoning. Using the above mentioned laboratory tests evidence of abnormal lead absorption was found in five of the examined subjects. Some remarks on prevention of possible lead intoxication are done.
