[Septic complications following thermic injuries (author's transl)].

The occurrence of septic complications after burns depends first of all from the surface extension of thermic injury and the age of patient. The expansion of the indication for primary excision doesn't change a great deal the frequence of septic occurences. Insufficient excision and skin covering to the other hand can be the source of lethal infection. Secondary skin grafting is an important mean for eradicating obvious sepsis. From among the parenchymal localisations the septic lung complications take the first place, which fact can be in connection with the thermic injury of the respiratory tract.

[The treatment of burns--an autonomous discipline (author's transl)].

In Europe Hungary was among the initiators to establish specialised surgical departments for the treatment of burnt patients. This new element in the structure of the hospital resulted in specialisation of surgeons for skin replacement and scar surgery. Thus the surgeon treating burnt patients is becoming the "surgeon of wounds" The treatment of thermal injury needs more detailed knowledge of biochemistry, pathophysiology and internal medicine compared with other field of surgery. The specialised thermist is in many respect similar to the intensivist.

The influence of Peronospora tabacina Adam upon the growth rhythm of Nicotiana tabacum cv. Samsun.

The cinematographic method was used for studying the changes of the growth rhythm of the leaves in Nicotiana tabacum cv. Samsun after the inoculation with Peronospora tabacina Adam. The leaves were screened only at the maturing phase when displaying characteristic disturbances of the growth rhythm. The leaves of a healthy plant show a regular growth rhythm, with regular amplitudes of growth spirals and growth rate. The growth spiral increments are elongated regular and even up to the mature stage of the leaf. In Nicotiana tabacum cv. Samsun the original regular rhythm was kept for 130 hrs. after the infection with the conidia of Peronospora tabacina Adam. When the first symptoms of the disease appeared on an inoculated leaf (approximately after 20 hrs.), fructification of the mould occurred, the growth rhythm was retarded and, after the necrotization of spots, the leaf died away.
