CLINICAL AND LABORATORY INVESTIGATIONS
Bacteriological Study of 100 Cases of Pyodermas with Special Reference to Staphylococci, Their Antibiotic Sensitivity and Phage Pattern
TV Ramani, PA Jayakar
September-October 1980, 46(5):282-286
PMID
:28218106
One hundred new cases of pyodenna attending King George Hospital, Vishakhapatnam were investigated bacteriologically with antibiotic sensitivity of all the strains isolated and phage typing of coagulm positive staphylocci. Among these 50 had impetigo and 15 each ahd furunculosis and fouiculitis. The remaining included various other clinical entities. Children under 10 years were observed to have high incidence of pyoderma. A total of 88 strains of staphylococci (77 coagulase positive and 11 coagulase negative strains) 25 strains of beta haemolytic streptococci and 3 strains of Klebsiella were isolated. Staphylococci were found to be the commonest aetiological agents either single or in association with other organisms. Of the 76 strains of coagulase positive staphylococci 32 strains were not phage typable and among the 44 typable strains 17 (38%) belonged to group III and 15 (36.5%) to mixed group. Coagulase positive staphylococci showed high sensitivity to garamycin, kanamycin and erythromycin and high resistance to penicillin and streptomycin. Multiple drug resistance was also high among these strains. Coagulase negative staphylococci were found to be more sensitive with less incidence of multiple drug resistance. Most of multiple drug resistant strains belonged to group III phage types. Beta haemolytic streptococci were found to be highly sensitive to all the antibiotics tested.

CLINICAL AND LABORATORY INVESTIGATIONS
Photochemotherapy of Psoriasis with Oral 8-methoxypsoralen (8-mop) and Solar Irradiation (puvasol Therapy)
Leslie Marquis, GM Rangwala, Leslie Marquis, GM Rangwala
September-October 1980, 46(5):287-293
PMID
:28218107
Forty eight patients having psoriasis were studied with puvasol therapy. Pre-treatment haemogram, platelet count, liver and renal functions were done. To begin with 40 mgm of 8 MOP were given at 10.30 a m and at 12.30 p m sunlight exposure for period varying from 5-30 minutes. After 8 to 12 weeks tri, bi and weekly maintenance therapy was given. The sunlight exposure calculated by the photometer was 8-12 Joules/cm2 per day. The grading of response was undertaken on the basis of three different aspects (1) Subsidence of lesions, Grades were given as excellent with 100% subsidence, good with 90100%, fair with 50-90% and poor with less than 50% subsidence (2) Statistical point score as per Wallace's classification and depending on type and morophology of lesions and (3) Response related to duration of therapy. Of 38 patients with psoriasis vulgaris 21 showed excellent to. good response. All six cases of psoriasis e ma (100%) showed excellent to good response. Of the three cases of pustular psoriasis, one showed 90- 100%, and 2, 50-90% subsidence. Puvasol therapy proved to be effective, non toxic and inexpensive in psoriasis. In the erythrodemic and pustular phase for the first time the results were encouraging.

Gross examination of the jejunal mucosal biopsy specimens has only a limited value, as out of 13 cases revealing normal morphology only 5 showed normal histology in psoriasis group while out of 7, only 4 cases revealed a, normalhistology in eryttwodetma group.

relation between the histologic alterations and the age, or the duration of the illness., litpsis to a great extent mucosal changes are related to the extent of skin involvement No such relation could be established in cases of erythroderma. In the absence of clinical features suggestive of derangements of the gastrointestinal tract it istempting to pressume that the, ent Mpathy is secondary to the skin lesions.
