Pulmonary Function tests were measured in 261 healthy boys and 254 healthy girls in the age group of 6 to 15 years with standard Benidects Roth type recording spirometer and Wrights Peak Flow Meter. The values of Pulmonary Functions were found to be increased with increase in age. For vital capacity this relation was curvilinear. All values were higher in boys than girls. There was significant positive correlation between pulmonary Function Tests Vital Capacity, (VC), Maximum Voluntary Ventilation (MV), peak Expiratory Flow Rate (PEFR) and anthropometric parameters like height, weight and body surface area. Equations were formed for prediction of V.C., M.V.V. and PEFR values in relation to the height. The values of Pulmonary Functions were lower when compared with Western Standards, but were comparable with different Indian Studies.

We report here on the changes in the Alkaline Phosphatase staining reaction in oral mucosa of women in various phases of menstrual cycle. It appears that the highest reaction for alkaline phosphatase is shown just after ovulation (about 15th-16th day of cycle). It is possible to judge the period of ovulation by taking daily smears and staining them for Alkaline phosphatase.

Motor nerve conduction velocity (MNCV) has been determined in seventy five normal healthy male subjects in different age groups in Right ulnar and median nerves respectively. It is observed that MNCV decreases in the older age group. Further it is seen that MNCV is less in the distal than in the proximal segment, the results being significant in the median nerve.

The effects of aqueous extracts of onion and garlic as well as of garlic oil were studied on the process of blood coagulation and fibrinolysis in vitro. Only onion was found to exhibit anti-coagulant and fibrinolytic activity while garlic extract as well as garlic oil were inactive.
