The place of the general practitioner in modern medical care--some international comparisons.

Dr J Fry considers the role of medical care in a changing world in relation to social demands and the cost of providing a comprehensive service. A consideration of services in other countries, such as the USA, USSR, Europe and Australia, provides lessons towards improving the NHS and also warnings of the faults inherent in these differing systems of medical care.

Clinical trial of emepronium bromide in nocturnal frequency of old age.

A double-blind cross-over trial of emepronium bromide (Cetiprin) in nocturnal frequency of micturition in a group of elderly women living in their homes showed that the drug was superior to placebo in diminishing urinary frequency, though not every person benefited. It is suggested that the drug may alter the established habit of rising at night to pass urine. Side-effects were negligible.
