A series of 3-O-derivatives of 1,2,5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-alpha-D-glucofuranose were prepared and tested for their pharmacological activity in comparison with tribenoside, a well known drug ...structurally related, and with other anti-inflammatory agents. Almost all the compounds had a very low toxicity and few of them showed a notable antiinflammatory and antipyretic activity and were able to clearly decrease the venous wall permeability.

The occurrence during the last year of vestibular disorders, faints and drop attacks was investigated in 150 patients consecutively admitted to a geriatric hospital. The clinical features of these ...episodes were recorded by means of a proper questionnaire. True vertigo and/or feeling of unstable equilibrium were referred by 54,6% of the patients inquired into, whereas episodes interpretable as faints and drop attacks showed by far lower prevalences, respectively 13,3% and 6%. The Authors call attention to the difficulties in differential diagnosis among these three kinds of phenomena in the current practice.
