Abstract
In the differential diagnosis of primary and secondary thrombocytosis platelet function tests may play an important role. We examined the applicability of a platelet filter test (shear-dependent platelet aggregation) as a tool, to differentiate primary thrombocytosis (cases with myeloproliferative disorders) from secondary (reactive) thrombocytosis. The test was carried out in 53 patients suffering from myeloproliferative disorders associated with primary thrombocytosis and in 21 patients with other diseases complicated by secondary thrombocytosis. Using citrate as anticoagulant, the sensitivity of the O'Brien's test proved to be 77.1%, and its specificity 94.4%. Using heparin as anticoagulant the sensitivity and specificity of the test were found to be also reliably high. Based on these studies we suggest the use of the O'Brien's filterometer as a screening test in the differential diagnosis in patients with elevated platelet count. In the case of normal results, the causes of reactive thrombocytosis should be clarified first, while with abnormal results, haematological examination of the patients should be performed.

Abstract
Thromboembolic complications during pregnancy are the most common causes of maternal death. Here we report on thromboembolic prophylaxis of 60 pregnancies of 32 pregnant women with familial thrombophilia. Long-term Fraxiparine (Sanofi-Chinoin) as thromboprophylaxis was applied in 26 cases throughout pregnancy. UFH (Heparin-Ca inj.) was used in 11 cases, and there were 23 pregnancies without thromboembolic prophylaxis in our patient's case histories. Artificial abortions were not included in this paper. The ratio of successful pregnancies were: with Fraxiparine: 24/26 (92.3%), with UFH (Heparin-Ca): 8/11 (72.7%), without prophylaxis: 4/23 (17.4%). In the patient group treated with Fraxiparine there were no foetopathy, thrombocytopenia or bleeding complication. LMWH is recommended for pregnant women with familial thrombophilia. According to literature data and our own experiences the doses of LMWH in patients with familial thrombophilia, and -antiphospholipid syndrome, and -artificial heart value are suggested.

Abstract
The prevalence of bleeding of the gastrointestinal tract is around 100/100,000 adults/year. These events need special diagnostic and therapeutic approach, which previously was located mostly to surgical departments. At the beginning of 1996 a specialized ward ("gastrointestinal bleeding unit, GBU") was created at the 2nd Dept. Medicine of the University Medical School of Debrecen. The authors give an account about their experiences with the first 250 cases, try to establish the optimal and necessary conditions and analyse the consequences of their newly developed "risk-score" system. The overall mortality was 9% during this period and surgical intervention proved to be necessary in only 10 cases. On the basis of the collected experiences, they are convinced that the described and elaborated model can well be used for the proper, up-to-date management of gasrointestinal bleeding disorders. As next they suggest an overall, regional organisation of such units, together with the correct determination and provision of the financial background.

Abstract
In the differential diagnosis of primary and secondary thrombocytosis, platelet function test can be used. We have examined the possible role of O'Brien's filter test in the differentiation of primary and secondary thrombocytosis in 53 patients with myeloproliferative diseases with primary thrombocytosis and in 21 patients with other disorders complicated by secondary thrombocytosis. By using heparin as an anticoagulant, the sensitivity of O'Brien's filter test proved to be 75%, and it's specificity was 85.7%. In blood samples anticoagulated with citrate, the sensitivity was 100% and specificity 83.3%. Based on these studies we suggest the use of O'Brien's filterometer as a screening test in the differential diagnosis in patients with elevated (> 400 x 10(9)/L) platelet count. In case of normal results, the causes of reactive thrombocytosis should be cleared first, while with pathologic results, haematological examination of the patients should be performed.

Abstract
Prophylaxis of thromboembolism with low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) may offer some advantages over unfractionated heparin during pregnancy. Controlled studies with LMWH for thromboprophylaxis in pregnancy are failing, although according to some recent studies LMWH did not cross the placental barrier. LMWH as thromboprophylactic agent was used in three young pregnant women with familial thrombophilia (two with PC one with AT-III deficiency). According to the bodyweight of patients the applied doses of LMWH were 5,000-10,000 ICU once daily. Laboratory control (determination of anti-FXa activity in plasma samples) was made monthly. The three pregnancies were uneventful, thromboembolic or haemorrhagic complications did not develop. Newborns were healthy, with no coincide of disturbances of haemostasis. The LMWH-demand is certainly increased at the late period of pregnancy. LMWH as thromboprophylaxis is recommended for pregnants with familial thrombophilia. The necessary dose of Fraxiparine may be 70 ICU/kg/day in the first and 100 ICU/kg/day in the second half of pregnancy.

Abstract
Eosinophil leukaemia is a rare and poorly defined entity characterized by neoplastic proliferation of eosinophil cell line. This form of the hypereosinophilic state is considered to be a variant form of CML, although as a diseases entity is not generally accepted. A history of a patients is reported, whose clinical course is thought to fulfill the requirements of eosinophil leukaemia. On the basis of the initial results (pathological lymphogram, eosinophilia, Ph-negativity) lymphogranulomatosis was suspected and explorative laparotomy was performed. However, only marked eosinophilic infiltration of the spleen was detected. After splenectomy his disease was stable without treatment for six months when his leukocytosis and eosinophilia increased. Despite the administration of hydroxyurea the leukocyte count exceeded 100 x 10(9)/l (eosinophil cells 70%), and the bone marrow revealed massive (80%) eosinophilic infiltration. Neither Ph-chromosome, nor cabl and bcr gen rearrangement were demonstrated, but the expression and amplification of c-myc oncogene indicated disease progression. Interferon therapy produced long-term clinical and haematological improvement, but blastic transformation was developed in the second year of his disease. Autopsy showed multiple organ involvement characteristic of CML, but no marked eosinophilic infiltration was found. The feature of this case suggest that eosinophil leukaemia might represent an uncommon form of Ph-negative CML.

Abstract
Monoclonal integration of DNA sequences related to, but not identical to HTLV-I provirus was detected in the peripheral blood lymphocytes of a Hungarian male suffering from ATL. The patient and his parents showed serological cross-reactivity with both HTLV-I and HTLV-II group-specific antigens. Restriction enzyme analysis with EcoRI, PstI, BamHI, HindIII and SacI revealed structural similarity of the provirus integrated in the DNA of ATL cells to HTLV-I but not to HTLV-II. Data suggest that this provirus and HTLV-I are similar to each other along gag and pol regions, but they are different in the env region.

Abstract
Skeletal ages of patients with streak gonad syndrome were determined by the Schinz and TW2 methods as well as by bone scans. Seventy-three subjects were examined. They were classified according to their chromosomal complement, body height, chronological age and previous hormonal treatment. Retarded bone age was a common finding on the hand, wrist, hip, knees and spine with significant coexistence; however, the extent of delay in skeletal maturation on various bones differed considerably. There was no significant correlation between bone age and chronological age, karyotype, body height and previous hormonal replacements, respectively. This finding suggests that retarded skeletal maturity in streak gonad syndrome is neither the consequence of estrogen deficiency nor due to sex chromosome abnormalities and probably is not dependent on growth hormone secretion. Its pathogenesis appears to be multifactorial and remains to be determined.
