title: [The clinical and pathogenetic role of erythrocyte catalase activity in diphtheria patients].
abstract: Cataleptic activity of erythrocytes was studied in 31 diphtheria and 10 quinsy patients versus 10 healthy controls. Inhibition of cataleptic activity in diphtheria directly correlated with growing severity of the disease. Such relationship was not found in quinsy.
