This survey was carried out on 706 cases chosen at random, of cranial traumatism following a fall in children under 4; it underlines the fact that in most cases there is a favourable evolution. However, complications may always occur, even in apparently slight accidents. A clinical examination, although difficult to carry out, reveals important information for the detection and treatment of complications, which are mainly intracranial collections which are not always immediately detectable; this entails a constant observation for at least one week. Complementary tests give information which must be interpreted according to clinical situation.

The 8 villages surveyed in the operational zone of Niarhar (Sine, Senegal, Africa) involved 1,182 children aged 0-14 years. 11.2% of these children showed a positive HB antigenaemia. The percentage of prevalence which was already high in the 0-1 year-old group (5.7%) increased progressively, attaining the maximum of 13.5% in the 5-9-year-old age group. The current theory that a higher frequency of HB antigenaemia is found among boys was confirmed, but there is no evidence that this "androtropism" is related only to sex. The rates of total prevalence vary from 7.1% to 16% according to the geographical regions. It was not possible to prove the existence of a possible relation between the different levels of prevalence on the one hand, and on the other hand the geographical position, size, structure, social and economic typology of the villages and the anopheline activity.

A study has been carried out to detect the frequency of atypical mycobacteria in ganglions belonging to two types of animals: bovine and swine. A total of 250 samples (150 cows and 100 pigs) were studied. The samples were decontaminated by the lauryl-sulfate technique, using two mycobacteria culture media: Löwenstein-Jensen and Coletsos base. 14 pig ganglion strains were isolated (8 M. avium; 3 M. gordonae; 2 M. fortuitum; 1 M. chelonei) and 13 from the cow samples (5 M. avium, 3 M. Kansasii; 2 M. gordonae; 2 M. fortuitum; 1 M. phlei). The most frequently isolated mycobacteria was M. avium (48.14% of total isolated strains). This study confirms the possible importance of these animals in the epidemiology of mycobacteriosis.
已经进行了一项研究,以检测属于两种动物的神经节中的非典型分枝杆菌的频率:牛和猪。共研究了250个样本(150头牛和100头猪)。采用硫酸十二烷基技术,使用两种分枝杆菌培养基:Löwenstein-Jensen和Coletsos碱基对样品进行净化。分离到14株猪神经节毒株(8株为M. avium;3 gordonae;M. fortunum;1例chelonem)和13例奶牛样本(5例avium, 3例Kansasii;2 gordonae;M. fortunum;1 M. phlei)。分离次数最多的分枝杆菌为鸟分枝杆菌(M. avium),占总分离菌株的48.14%。这项研究证实了这些动物在分枝杆菌病流行病学中的可能重要性。
