[Russell syndrome. Report of a case].

A child who presented the typical features of the diencephalic syndrome of Russell is presented. The authors stress the importance of ruling out a diencephalic neoplasm in all infants who present failure to thrive.

A chronic wasting syndrome in a horse associated with granulomatous enteritis.

A case of granulomatous enteritis in a 2 year-old Thoroughbred colt is reported. Clinically the horse showed chronic wasting and subcutaneous oedema of the ventral parts of the body and legs. Grossly the wall of the jejunum and ileum was uniformly thickened. Microscopically the lamina propria, submucosa and the tunica muscalaris of the small intestine were infiltrated with lymphocytes, plasma cells, epithelioid cells and occasional multinucleated giant cells. The granulomatous reaction was most marked in the muscular layers of the gut wall.

These deviations are dominated by restrictive behavior. Epidemiological studies, case histories and transcultural data are scarce. Their obtention would undoubtedly yield more satisfactory therapeutics.

Endocrine function in the HIV wasting syndrome.

We compared endocrine function in patients with the HIV wasting syndrome with other HIV-positive patients without wasting to determine associations between endocrine dysfunction and wasting. Sixty-six HIV-seropositive patients were evaluated by thyroid, gonadal, and adrenal function tests. Fourteen of these patients met the clinical definition of wasting. Total and free testosterone levels were significantly lower in patients with wasting compared with patients without wasting with both similar and higher mean CD4 counts. Prolactin levels were significantly higher, and cortisol levels were higher with borderline significance in patients with wasting compared with patients with similar CD4 counts without wasting. These findings suggest that endocrine function in the HIV wasting syndrome differs from that of HIV-infected patients without wasting, which may have implications about the pathogenesis and treatment of the HIV wasting syndrome.
