Serum angiotensin converting enzyme in the diagnosis of pulmonary sarcoidosis.

Serum angiotensin converting enzyme (SACE) was estimated in 25 normal healthy subjects mean (15.62 +/- 6.5 mU/mL/37 degrees C), 26 patients with sarcoidosis (32.06 +/- 9.7) 15 with pulmonary tuberculosis (16.31 +/- 4.6) and 19 with diffuse interstitial lung disease (11.72 +/- 4.555). Significantly (P less than 0.05) elevated SACE values were seen in active sarcoidosis, and serial SACE levels correlated well with the course of the disease.

Serum ferritin levels in hematologic malignant neoplasms.

Data from 90 patients with a variety of hematologic malignant neoplasms were studied to determine the relation between changes in serum ferritin concentration and the clinical status of the patients. Patients with Hodgkin's disease, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, multiple myeloma, blastic crisis of chronic myelocytic leukemia, acute myeloblastic leukemia and acute lymphoblastic leukemia were found to have significantly elevated serum ferritin levels. Further study of serum ferritin concentration in certain hematologic malignant neoplasms might provide a valuable insight into the role of serum ferritin determination in the diagnosis and follow-up of patients with malignant diseases.
