[Separation of high density lipoproteins (HDL) using zonal ultracentrifugation in patients with apolipoprotein AI Milano variant].
Investigations of HDL with zonal ultracentrifugation were carried out in three patients with apolipoprotein AIMilano. HDL in patients with AIMilano apolipoprotein are characterized by the practically total absence of HDL2. The HDL3 peak is broader than normal. In spite of the marked reduction or practically total absence of HDL2, which is believed to be a protective factor against atherosclerosis, our patients show no signs of clinical atherosclerosis.

[Acipimox treatment of hyperlipidemia type II].
The hypolipidemic effect of acipimox, a new inhibitor of lipolysis, was investigated in a double blind crossover trial versus placebo. The trial showed an appreciable and significant reduction in total cholesterol (-14%) and of LDL cholesterol (-20%), a slight but significant increase in HDL cholesterol (+6%), and only a slight diminution of triglycerides and VLDL cholesterol.

Untunnelled central venous catheters in the treatment of acute leukemia.
Ninety-eight untunnelled central venous catheters were positioned in the subclavian or internal jugular vein in 42 patients with acute leukemia. The procedure was feasible at bedside and carried a risk of catheter-related infection of 21%, similar to that of tunnelled catheters. The persistence of exit-point infection is the main route of infection and requires catheter removal.
