Disturbances of the renal function, urolithiasis and hypertension are observed in a high percentage already in the asymptomatic stage of the primary hyperuricaemia. They determine above all the fate of the patient with gout. In primary uric arthritis over-accidentally frequently obesity, steatosis hepatis, hyperlipoproteinaemias, manifest diabetes mellitus and premature arteriosclerosis are found, without up to now proving a causal connection. Also these diseases often coin the clinical picture and demand particular attention in the diagnostics of patients with gout.

Red blood cells obtained shortly before and after a hemosorption session from 12 patients were studied in scanning electron microscope. The patients suffered from chronic renal failure and purulent intoxication consequent to urolithiasis and purulent pyelonephritis (10 cases), renal arteriosclerosis (1 case) and prostatic cancer (1 case). Before hemosorption number of discocytes measured 50.8%, while that of stomatocytes 37.3%. Spherocytes, echinocytes and knisocytes occurred in larger quantities. After hemosorption diskocytes amounted 67%, echinocytes and acanthocytes levels rose. The changes may be due to normalization of blood biochemistry after the hemosorption, and to sorbent effects on red cells.

A 26-year-old Chinese male patient with type I glycogen storage disease presented with chronic renal disease, proteinuria, and urolithiasis. On renal biopsy, focal glomerular sclerosis, increased mesangial matrix and cellularity, interstitial fibrosis, tubular atrophy, and prominent arteriosclerosis were observed. Immunofluorescence microscopy revealed Ig A deposits predominantly in the glomerular mesangium. The possible mechanisms of renal involvement in glycogen storage disease are briefly discussed.

Author presents and analyses informations of non-medical texts of Byzantine historians and chroniclers concerning diseases of Byzantine emperors, concluding that diseases were implicated in certain political and military difficulties. Only one third of the emperors died due to natural causes (i.e. illnesses). Some historians, such as Anna Comnena and Michael Psellos had studied medicine, both of them had excellent knowledge of medical theories of their times. Some diseases in Byzantium were widespread and had high morbidity. This material gives an indication that arthritis (resembling gout) tyrannised a great number of emperors. Contemporary historians maintain that the main causes of gout were overconsumption of alcoholic drinks and food. Other very serious conditions were acute and chronic pyelonephritis and urolithiasis. Relatively frequent conditions of the emperors included pestilential diseases (dysentery, typhoid fever, etc.), psychiatric disorders, epilepsy and arteriosclerosis.
