[Experience with Cascara-Salax preparating children for barium enema].

30 children prepared from barium enema using Cascara-Salax are reported on. The results are: 1. A satisfactory preparation is possible in out-patient children older than ten years. 2. For children aged 6 to 10 years only the half dose early in the afternoon before the X-ray examination is necessary. 3. In most cases the colon is completely clear, if not, the X-ray study is generally not influenced by rests of stool. 4. It should be considered that other--and often unreliable--cleaning manoevers aren't necessary, the Cascara-Salax--method is time--saving and side-effects are not of value.

[The incidence of poisoning by Karwinskia humboldtiana in Mexico].

Intoxication produced by Karwinskia humboldtiana presents a neurological picture similar to that of poliomyelitis, Guillain-Barré syndrome or other polyradiculoneuritis with which it is frequently confused. The purpose of this paper is to report the frequency of this intoxication, by means of the antecedent of ingestion of the fruit and the detection of toxins in blood using a thin layer chromatography method. One hundred fifty four samples of cases with acute flaccid paralysis from 18 states of the country were received. The antecedent of ingestion in 56 of them was corroborated and the detection was positive in 50 of these. In 98 patients there was not antecedent of ingestion and detection was negative in 95 of them. We estimated that the sensibility and specificity of detection method are 89% and 96.9% respectively.
