[Exchangeable electrolytes, glycoregulation and growth hormone in one case of Bartter's syndrome (author's transl)].

Total body water (T.B.W), extra-cellular fluid volume (E.C.F.), exchangeable sodium (NaE) and potassium (KE) were measured in one typical case of Bartter's syndrome with growth retardation. Intracellular potassium depletion was associated with a slight impaired carbohydrate tolerance and with decreased growth hormone response to arginine infusion and insulin-induced hypoglycemia. These observations demonstrate that impairement of growth hormone responses to stimulation occur in Bartter's syndrome with potassium depletion.

[Pseudohypothyroidism. Complementary results apropos of 4 familial cases].

In a sibship, 4 out of 5 children featured pseudo-hypoparathyroidism. The following points were verified: hypocalcaemia; increase of the serum level of PTH; normal response of bone and gut effectors to endegenous PTH; contrast between normal bone X-rays and lesions detected by histological studies.
