The etiology of underlying liver lesions in 70 autopsied cases of hepatocellular carcinoma.

In 70 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma without history of antineoplastic chemotherapeutic drugs, anabolic and contraceptive steroids, representative sections of nonneoplastic liver tissue were examined for the presence of etiological markers. Hepatitis B surface antigen-positive hepatocytes were found in 16 (22.8%), alpha-1-antitrypsin globules in 3 (4.2%), Mallory bodies in 9 (12.8%), acicular inclusions in 1 (1.4%), diffuse giant mitochondria in 2 (2.8%), copper-binding protein in 25 (35.7%), greater amount of hemosiderin in 9 (12.8%) cases. Thorotrast was not detected. One or more markers were seen in 38 (54.3%) cases, most frequently in association with liver cell dysplasia and alcoholism. The presence of hepatitis B surface antigen in livers with dysplastic foci was highly significant as compared to organs showing no dysplasia. Only the mentioned antigen and the alpha-1-antitrypsin globules were found to indicate the etiology of the underlying liver lesion. The value of the other markers was found inconsistent in etiological diagnosis.

Pediatrical case histories analyzed by means of a computer.

The authors present their first version of the formation of anamnestic case histories (family, personal, epidemiological, and social) by means of a conversation between the physician and the computer. During the recording a set of the means of expression is used, this allows for an exhaustive compilation and recording of various types of case histories. The means of expression called variables make up the questionnaire sentence. The case histories- conversations about them, are presented by the algorithm of the questionnaire in logical sequences which permit suprabound jumps off to other linkages. The created complexes-sentences are verified as a whole and then recorded. Portions of different types of case histories are demonstrated in this paper together with their possible side jumps. The possibilities of computer analysis lie in repeated recording, corrections, in the formation of statistical analyses of various data and, in the future, also in the formation of differential diagnostic considerations with the assistance of computers.
