A 15-17 year follow-up study was conducted on ninety-nine patients who had suffered from infantile eczema. The persistance of the eczema and the occurrence of related conditions were noted. The persistence of eczema was shown to be greater in those patients with a positive family history of eczema and in those who had developed asthma or hay-fever. An attempt was made to see if the persistence of eczema was affected by the position of the child in the family, and some factors provoking relapses were noted. The patients were also questioned with regard to their achievements in academic examinations, and to their social, artistic and sporting activities. The results showed a success rate in examinations not significantly higher than average. It was not possible to show if there is a particular type of atopic personality. There was no constant characteristic in social or artistic patterns. The group as a whole were normal at the milestones of early development, i.e. walking, talking and reading, and also normal with regard to weight and height.

We report 18 cases in which a pruritic, erythematous, papular and vesicular eruption developed on the ears following sun exposure. Four of these patients had, on other occasions, suffered from typical polymorphic light eruption. The clinical features, histological changes, and results of phototesting suggest that juvenile spring eruption of the ears is a localized form of polymorphic light eruption.

Onycholysis following the ingestion of psoralens and subsequent exposure to natural sunlight has been reported on several occasions and was first reported following photochemotherapy in 1978 by Ortonne and Baran from France and in 1979 by Mackie from Scotland. Mackie commented that she hoped to stimulate further reports of onycholysis induced by PUVA photochemotherapy in order to establish whether or not it was a definite complication of such treatment. Since then, there has been a dearth of similar reports. We describe a patient with severe atopic eczema and alopecia totalis who developed onycholysis of all finger nails and a toe nail during PUVA photochemotherapy.

We report the occurrence of scleroderma and autoimmune thrombocytopenia in a patient who took L-tryptophan as a muscle-building adjuvant. This is the first time such an association has been reported.

An aphasic client identified a discrepancy of up to 55% in her ability to understand different professions in a rehabilitation centre. This paper describes how a multidisciplinary training session enabled staff to modify their language to improve the client's comprehension and it discusses the wider benefits that ensued.
