[Erysipeloid on the islands of the Ohhotsk Sea. 2. Landscape types of the natural foci of erysipeloid].

Cases of skin (skin-artericular) form of erysipeloid were recorded in the islands of the Sea of Okhotsk. The natural foci of the causative agent of this infection were polyhostal and polyvectoral in character. The causative agent of erysipeloid exists among the animals habitating on land and sea. Mass species of animals characteristic of the island landscape served as the sources of infection. Their four landscape types (mountaineous-taiga, of sea coast and rocks, anthropurgic settlement, and of water bodies--salt and freshwater) were preliminarily distinguished by the combination of biocenological, epidemiological, and epizootological peculiarities of natural erysipeloid foci.

[Erysipeloid on the islands of the Sea of Okhotsk. I. The sources and vectors of the causative agent of erysipeloid].

The foci of the causative agent of erysipeloid at the islands of the Okhotsk sea were of the polyvector and polyhostal character. There were recorded 92 species of the naturally infected by the erysipeloid causative agent invertebrate inhabitants of the sea, fish, amphibia, reptilia, birds, mammals and ectoparasites of the warm-blooded animals. Gamazoid and ixodes ticks, mosquitoes, horse-flies and flees were found to be naturally infected with erysipelotrix. Ixodes persulcatus were found to be capable of infecting albino mice during blood sucking.

[On the dermal form of erysipeloid in slaughter house workmen (author's transl)].

We described the incidence and clinical course of the dermal form of erysipeloid in 125 workmen of a central slaughter-house in Bukarest. The highest frequency of the illness was observed in summer and autumn (83 cases), especially in the group aged 21 to 50 years (96 cases). Most of the cases of erysipeloid are occupationally acquired by various persons engaged in handling meat, often butchers and workmen in meat, skin, and bone processing factories. The most frequent localisation of the process was at the index fingers and thumbs of both hands.

[A rare localization of erysipeloid].

A female patient aged 56 is described, suffering from a cutaneoarticular form of erysipeloid, that developed after application of raw fat at the site of injury to the third toe of the left foot. The process completely regressed within a week after a single intake of sulfalene in a dose of 2.0 g.

Erysipeloid

Carcinoma erysipeloides.

We report an 83-year-old woman with carcinoma erysipeloides due to an occult carcinoma. Immunohistochemical study of skin biopsies showed reactivity to S-100 protein and human milk fat globule antigen indicating that the tumour originated in the breast.

[Comparative studies of the standardization of erysipeloid immune sera "Dessau" from swine using the mouse-protection test and ELISA].

Different serological methods were used in determining the valence of red murrain immune sera. By using a grow test it is possible to accomplish an immunological differentiation of the immune sera. The used ELISA was tested in comparison to the conventional mouse protective test (PRIGGE, 1950) with regard to its valuation of immune sera. Both procedures have been tested on a possible correlation. In almost all cases a correlation between high titres in ELISA and a mouse protective value over 100 I.E. could be proven. The statistical processing of the test results proved an assumed correlation of both procedures. But it is necessary to carry out further research in order to be able to recommend this procedure as an alternative for the mouse protection test.

[Experimental study on erysipeloid arthritis in the rabbit after blockage of lymph drainage].

The lymph drainage was radically blocked in 29 rabbits. One to three days after the operation Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae was inoculated subcutaneously into the animals. Some control animals were injected with agents of erysipelas and some only with the sterile solution without additional blockade of the lymph drainage. Light and electron microscopy as well as immuno-histological tests showed that the erysipelas arthritis developing in rabbits closely resembles human rheumatoid arthritis with exsudative-necrotising changes of the synovial membrane, proliferation of synovial cells and subsynovial, perivascular plasmacell, and lymphocyte infiltration. The changes were not intensified by the additional blockade of the lymph drainage, when comparing the side with lymph drainage blockade and the non-operated side. The results may be explained by a marked pathogenetic importance of the erysipelas infection in comparison to the relatively mild, lymphostate dependent alterations as well as by mobilisation of macrophages on the operated side.
