Abstracts. Venereology and Dermatology. Scrofuloderma "bridges" as a rare form of late syphilis .. Schmidt. (Derm. Ztsch. Bd. 57, H. 5) describes a case clinically similar to scrofuloderma, where the picture showed the presence of typical "bridges" - scars. so common in scrophuloderma. However, the study of these scars by sections gave a typical picture for a syphilitic process. The specific treatment of this case was soon brilliant.

A. Jordan and Popova-Bloom (Derm. Zisch., Bd. 55, H. 2) as a result of their observations of 8 cases of this disease come to the following conclusions that m. g. can occur in different parts of the muscles, but more often affect m. sternocleidomastoideus, women are more likely to suffer (the authors have one man out of 8 cases), because this disease is observed in individuals with lues ignorata. M. g. is a manifestation of late syphilis. Diagnosis is fraught with great difficulties and is facilitated only by a positive R. W. The prognosis is favorable, for specific treatment quickly leads to a cure.

Abstract. Objective: We examined predictors and moderators of treatment outcome in mothers and children diagnosed with ADHD in a large multicentre RCT. Method: In total, 144 mother-child dyads with ADHD were randomly assigned to either a maternal ADHD treatment (group psychotherapy and open methylphenidate medication, TG) or to a control treatment (individual counselling without psycho- or pharmacotherapy, CG). After maternal ADHD treatment, parent-child training (PCT) for all mother-child dyads was added. The final analysis set was based on 123 dyads with completed primary outcome assessments (TG: n = 67, CG: n = 56). The primary outcome was the change in each child’s externalizing symptoms. Multiple linear regression analyses were performed. Results: The severity of the child’s externalizing problem behaviour in the family at baseline predicted more externalizing symptoms in the child after PCT, independent of maternal treatment. When mothers had a comorbid depression, TG children showed more externalizing symptoms after PCT than CG children of depressive mothers. No differences between the treatment arms were seen in the mothers without comorbid depression. Conclusions: Severely impaired mothers with ADHD and depressive disorder are likely to need additional disorder-specific treatment for their comorbid psychiatric disorders to effectively transfer the contents of the PCT to the home situation (CCTISRCTN73911400).

SummaryThe natural course of defibrination syndrome caused by Echis colorata venom (ECV) in five patients is reported. All patients developed afibrinogenemia within six hours after the bite. Concomitantly a depression in factor V was recorded. Factor VIII and thrombocyte count in blood were normal in most patients. In the light of the known effects of ECV on blood coagulation in vivo and in vitro it is concluded that the afibrinogenemia is due to intravascular clotting.Four patients had transient renal damage, manifested by oliguria, azotemia, albuminuria and cylindruria, ascribed to microthrombi in the renal glomeruli.After the bite, the natural course was benign, no major bleeding was observed, and all signs of coagulopathy reverted to normal within 7 days. Therefore we recommend no specific treatment for this condition. In the case of heavily bleeding patients, administration of antiserum against ECV and/or heparin should be considered.

SummaryA series of coagulation parameters and lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) were explored in plasma from 40 patients with central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO, non-ischemic type n = 12; ischemic type n = 28) free of local and systemic predisposing factors, 1 to 12 months after the acute event. Forty age- and sex-matched patients with cataract served as controls. Prothrombin fragment 1.2 (FI.2), D-dimer, FVII:C - but not FVII: Ag - were higher and fibrinogen was lower in CRVO patients than in controls. Patients with non-ischemic CRVO had higher FI .2 and FVII:C and lower heparin cofactor II than patients with ischemic CRVO. Lp(a) levels greater than 300 mg/1 were observed in 12 patients with CRVO and in 4 controls (30% vs 10%, p <0.025). Patients with high Lp(a) - consistently associated with the S2 phenotype - had higher FVII:C, FVII:C/Ag ratio, and fibrinogen than the remaining CRVO patients. Plasma FI.2 and D-dimer correlated fairly in controls (r = 0.41) and patients with normal Lp(a) levels (r = 0.55), but they did not in the group of patients with high Lp(a) (r = 0.19), where the latter parameter was negatively related to D-dimer (r = −0.55). There was no dependence of the abnormalities observed on the time elapsed from vein occlusion. The findings of activated FVII and high FI.2, D-dimer, and Lp(a) are not uncommon in patients with CRVO. Increased thrombin formation with fibrin deposition and impaired fibrinolysis may play a role in the pathophysiology of CRVO and require specific treatment

Morgagni hernia is a rare form of diaphragmatic hernia. It is a congenital defect of the diaphragm, often asymptomatic in adulthood and thus usually found only incidentally. Its treatment is predominantly surgical. This article presents three case reports of patients operated in our department.
