The influence of low intensity 50 Hz electromagnetic field exposure on blood Na, K and Cl concentrations in humans.

In this work we investigated the long term exposure effects (average 9 years, 7 hours a day, 5 days a week) to a 50 Hz low level (1-30 microT electromagnetic field. The concentrations of sodium (Na), potassium (K) and chlorine (Cl) in blood plasma and erythrocytes of female factory workers were monitored as quantitative parameters.

[Microalbuminuria in diabetics treated with insulin for more than 30 years]. / Mikroalbuminurija u dijabeticara lecenih insulinom preko 30 godina.

Microalbuminuria was determined in the urine of 6 diabetics who had been treated with Insulin for over 30 years an had a normal kidney function. The values gained by the radial immunodiffusion method (VLC--Partigen Albumin) range from 0.001 gr/l to 0.008 gr/l of albumins in the urine. These values are much below the risky ones (over 0.020 gr/l), which signalize the evolution to the macroproteinuria and the development of the diabetic nephropathy. Over 30 years duration of the insulin-dependent diabetes, with no macroproteinuria pretors on the expression of diabetic nephropathy. 5 locus which is known to have the influence on the intensity of the immunological response.
