[Acyclovir treatment of eczema herpeticum in Darier's disease].

This paper describes two episodes of eczema herpeticum occurring in a woman with Darier's disease. During the first episode, the vesicular eruption represented a primary herpetic infection because there were no IgM herpes antibodies. The second attack suggested a recurrent infection. Herpes simplex, virus type I was isolated from the lesions in both cases.

[Outbreak of hand, foot and mouth disease in a day-nursery. A new clinical form? (author's transl)].

Ten cases of vesicular eruption affecting primarily the hands (4/10) and feet (6/10) occurred in a day-nursery for infants. An enterovirus related to coxsackie A 16 virus was isolated from two vesicular fluids and nine stools. The fact that the outbreak took place in the winter, the rarity of pharyngeal lesions (2/10), the high incidence of foot lesions and the presence of listlessness as only associated symptom lead to a discussion of the relationship between this small epidemic and true hand, foot and mouth disease.

[Detection of rubella specific IgM on gel filtration through Sephadex G 200: use of dithiothreitol and limits with MnCl2-heparine pretreatment (author's transl)].

The detection of rubella haemagglutination inhibiting antibody, in the IgM fraction of the serum, on gel filtration through Sephadex G 200, needs precautions to exclude false results. Treatment with dithiothreitol is a satisfactory method for confirming the content of rubella IgM antibody. The failure of MnCl2-heparin pretreatment to remove non specific inhibitors of rubella hemagglutinin is unfrequent (7/108) and so do be repeated. Rarely (1/108) aggregated IgG fractionates with IgM and yield false positive results.

Antibodies to herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2: a comparative study using indirect haemagglutination in carcinoma of the cervix and in other malignant conditions.

The authors used a technique of indirect haemagglutination to compare levels of antibody to Herpesvirus simplex types 1 and 2 in groups of patients with carcinoma of the cervix, together with other malignant conditions and in comparison to controls. A significant difference in the mean titre of antibody to type 2 virus is revealed between the carcinoma group and the B controls. The significance of the antibody assays is assessed by a study of the specificity of the antibodies found and by an assay of antibody which cross reacts with Herpesvirus simplex type 1.
