One hundred ana fifty eight cases of Typhoid fever in children are reported as a result of a one year study.Blood Salmonella typhi culture was found in 52.3%, wheereas Widal titer was positive in 57.9% cases. Fever and aneosinophilia were found in all of the 158 patients (100%), While 76.3% had constipation, 59.5% disturbance of consciousness, 98% leucopenia and 33.3% diarrhoea occurring in children below 5 years.The result of treatment with chloramphenicol 75 mg/ kg Bw/day showed that the body temperature retumed to normal in an average of 4.9 days after the administration of the drug, whereas hospitalization lasted 14.4 days (average). Three pat}ents (/.9o/o) died because of perforation :and bronchopneumonia and 5 failures were considered as caused by drug relsistancy.During this study the typhoid fever morbidity rarte in the hospital was 8.1% with the case fatality r.ate as high ·as 1.6%. The higr.est outbreak happened at the beginning of the rainy season.

The incidence of fat malabsorption in neonates with diarrhea was investigated from July until November 1975, by the lipiodol absorption test which used a chloroform solution indicator.In our study we got the following results:- 45.9% out of 24 neonates with diarrhea had fat malabsorption.This broke down to 9.1% with mild, 63.6% with moderate and 27.3% with severe fat malabsorption.- 45% of the patients had mild dehydration and 50% had severe dehydration with fat malabsorption.Usually there is a correlation between the microscopic examination of stools and the lipiodo/ absorption test.The employment of the lipiodol absorption test with a chloroform solution indicator is simpler and easier than with an amylum solution indicator.

A study was camled out on 93 cases of Typhuid fever admitted to the Department of Child Health, Gadjah Mada University Hospital in Yogyakarta.The diagnosis is based on the discovery of Salnwnella typhi in the blood.It is stated that Chloramphenicol pos3esses an immunosuppressive nature ruppressing the titer of antibodies.Chloramphenicol has been administered with a dosagre of 75 mg/kg bodywelght/day.Checking on the titer of Widal war done weekly, beginning with the first week (prior to treatment with Chloramphenicol), larting four weeks (up to approximaJelyone or two weeks after Chlorampheru'col administration was stopped).ln only 91 of 93 cases follow up war possible: the W.idal titer incrt!OSed in 29 cases (31.9%), decreased in 23 (25.i%) cases and was constant in 39 cases (42.9%).

Fifty selected cuses of urinary tract infection ( UTI) were treated with Dibekacinwith the do~age of 2 mg/kg BW, IM. for seren days. Thirty five casesclassified as simple UT 1 and /lie rest fifteen cases as complicured urinary infection. Thirty one cases were injected once a day and the remaining nineteen patients twice a day.The .ciinica!, laboratory und microbiological improvement was 84%, 86%and 62% respectively. Complete improvement was and on 54% cases only. Inthe group of simple UTI, no significant different result was found on differentinterval time of drug injection. Similar result was also detected in the group ofcomplicated UTI. The only significant different result was obtained from thecumparison between simple and complicated urinmy infection when the drugwas given twice a day, either it was separately assessed clinically, latoratoryand microbiologically or combined. Better result was more pronounced in thegroup of simple UTI but we had to be cautious to interpret this finding. Singledaily injection could be reconunended to reduce the dscomfort of parenteraladministration.

Before the introduction of in vivo intestinal biopsy techniques, relatively little was known about the morphology of human intestinal mucosa under normal condition, and still less about its pathological states.The first intestinal biopses were carried out with a modification of the rigid gastnic biopsy tube (Shiner, 1956) and it was only after the introduction of the much more flexible biopsy capsule (Crosby and Kugler, 1951) that the technique of intestinal biopsy became extensively used throughout the world (Greene et al., 1974; Townley and Bernes, 1973). In 1962, Readand his colleagues produced a modification of Crosby's capsule, and a paediatric ver~on of the modification is Received 14th Mei 19!0.now widely used fur small intestinal biopsy lin children (Marketed as WatsonCapsule).

At the Department of Child Health Medical School University of NorthSumatera/Dr. Pirngadi Hospital Medan, a retrospective study for analysis onRabies in Children from 1977 - 1980 had been carried out. We found 29cases consisting of 23 males arul 6 females. The highest incidence was between 6 - 12 years. All was bitten by dogs.Lower limbs were the most common site of dog bite. Twenty of the 29cases were derived from Medan Munic~TJ!e. All of the cases did not receivedpost"exposure immunization. People's alertness to dog control is still unproperly practice and stray dogs are everywhere.

Circulating Immune Complex (CIC) in the serum have been studied in 75patients with glomerular diseases. The highest positive rate in patients with post streptococcal glomerulonephritis and lupus nephritis were respectively 83.3% atld 75%.In nephrotic syndrome: 33.3% (5 jl5) was positive in diffuse mesangial proliferative cases, and in all 3 patient~· with membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis, membranous nephropathy and focal glomerulosclerosis. All of them had detectable immune deposits in the glomeruli.In minimal lesion nephrotic syndrome (MLNS) without glomerular immunedeposits, CIC was positive in 2 out of 17 cases (12%). This support the hypothesis that in MLNS a humoral immune mechanil'im might take part in the pathogenesis of the disease.

In infants and children urinary tract infections are common and reccurent. For the first urinary tract infection elimination of bacteriuria with chemotherapeutic drugs is usually simple and effective. The long-term treatment of patients with urinary tract infection should reflect the individual risk to develop renal damage. Therefore, individual therapy must be picked out of several therapeutic schedules. Observation without chemotherapy, chemotherapy of active urinary tract infection, chemotherapeutic prophylaxis, suppressive chemotherapy, and surgery.
