Electroencephalography--use and abuse.

The E.E.G. is a reliable, safe and readily available test, especially for screening purposes in hospitals where brain scan and EMI scan facilities are not available. Its reliability becomes less when unreasonable demands are made regarding the nature of pathology, precise localisation and extent of a lesion. A detailed clinical history is mandatory for the neurophysiologist to make a useful interpretation of the E.E.G.

Transfer-factor therapy in multiple sclerosis.

The effect of transfer factor prepared from relatives of patients with multiple sclerosis (M.S.) and from unrelated donors on the clinical course of M.S. has been studied in fifteen male and fifteen female patients. Some patients were given transfer factor and some placebo (physiological saline). Results of three independent clinical examinations by different neurologists and subjective assessments by the patients showed no difference between those given transfer factor and those given placebo.
