[Perinatal fetal distress: correlations between Apgar score at birth and assay of CK-BB in umbilical cord blood].

32 newborn infant's umbilical cord blood CK-BB activity was tested at birth. 14 of them had a superior to 7 Apgar score at first and fifth minutes, whereas 18 newborn infant Apgar score was inferior to 7. The CK-BB activity was significantly higher in newborn infants having a low Apgar score at birth. A low Apgar score at first and fifth minutes together with a high CK-BB activity must be considered a nervous trouble signal and a warning in order to look after children's psychomotor skills more strictly and individual neurological damage.

Multicentre study of soybean protein diet for outpatient hyper-cholesterolaemic patients.

The animal proteins in a low-lipid, low-cholesterol diet were substituted with a textured soybean preparation for 127 outpatients with stable type II hyperlipoproteinaemia selected from eight Italian and one Swiss lipid clinics. Eight weeks of the modified diet reduced plasma cholesterol by 23.1% in the 67 participating male patients and by 25.3% in the 60 females. No significant changes in plasma triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and body weight were recorded. Better reductions in plasma cholesterol occurred in non-familial cases and in very young male patients. The acceptable taste of the soybean preparation used in this study, and its easy handling, indicate that this type of dietary treatment may be suitable for outpatients.
