Six-day clotrimazole therapy in vaginal candidosis.

Two hundred and two patients with symptoms, signs and mycological evidence of Candida vaginitis were entered in a single-blind trial comparing 6-day clotrimazole therapy with a control group receiving 6 days' nystatin therapy. Adequate data was collected on 69 clotrimazole and 72 nystatin treated patients for analysis. Judged by both the severity of symptoms and signs and the number of patients with negative mycological findings, 6-day clotrimazole therapy produced statistically significantly better results than obtained in the control group. When reviewed 4 weeks after starting therapy, 93% of the clotrimazole treated patinets had culturally negative results for Candida compared with 74% of the patients treated with nystatin. It is concluded that 6-day clotrimazole therapy is effective in the treatment of Candida vaginitis.

Three views. (Planned parenthood).

"I have yet to find I person in the Federation who believes that planned parenthood alone will produce economic development and alone will reduce the birthrate. These might have been real arguments in 1963 or even 1968 but everyone has now had enough experience to recognize how complicated are the problems with which we deal. Could we not agree that there is no priority to be decided between human happiness and human survival - that individual and collective approaches support one another and that our organization is flexible enough to let every association decide to approach this question according to the circumstances in their country? I would plead that we bury this hatchet and get on with the tremendous common tasks we face for the rest of this decade."

A study of vertebral bone powder from patients with chronic renal failure.

Bone powder from patients dying with chronic renal failure of more than 1 yr duration was shown to release less calcium and more phosphate when equilibrated with a buffer solution. pH 7.4 at 4 degrees C. This change persisted after removal of the organic component and was associated with a reduction in the bone carbonate content. Crystal size and surface area showed no consistent changes from the controls and it was concluded that an alteration in the apatite crystal composition had occurred in long-standing uremia with carbonate-phosphate interchange. Support for this was provided by synthesis of apatites which were carbonate deficient and behaved in a similar manner to the uremic bones.
