Notes: Summary. An orthopaedic assessment of the joint status of seven severe haemophiliacs (mean age 12.5 y – range 8.9–15.5) on prophylactic treatment (PT) by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and physical examination was carried out. Median duration of PT of these patients was 84 months (range 32–107). A locally designed MRI joint score considering seven parameters (1 – joint effusion,2 – synovial membrane thickening, 3 – haemosiderin deposits, 4 – joint cartilage injury, 5 – subchondral bone erosion, 6 – subchondral bone cysts,7 – osteonecrosis) was used (maximum score = 13 points). MRI scans were performed in 17 joints (nine ankles, seven knees and one elbow): mean MRI scores for the affected joints was 5.1. A poor consistency between physical examination and MRI findings or the real extent of joint damage was found (Cohen kappa index 0.320). MRI is a precise non-invasive tool for the assessment of early joint cartilage and synovium pathological changes still undetectable by physical examination or conventional X-rays in the haemophilic setting.

Description / Table of Contents: Résumé L'incidence de la rage est élevée dans l'Etat de Morelos, en Mexique. L'étude est basée sur des données obtenues d'institutions gouvernementales appropriées. De 1980 à 1990, on a noté une moyenne de 3,3 cas humains et de 1985 à 1990 un total de 3173 cas de rage animale. On en conclut que le programme antiabique en Mexique, en particulier dans l'Etat de Morelos, n'a pas produit de résultats satisfaisants.

Abstract: Resumen La rabia tiene una alta incidencia en el estado de Morelos, México. El presente estudio está basado en datos obtenidos de instituciones del Gobierno. Los datos de 1980 a 1990 indican una media anual de 3·3 casos de rabia en personas y los datos de 1985 a 1990 muestran un total de 3173 casos de rabia en animales. Se concluyó que el programa de control de rabia en Mexico, particularmente en el estado de Morelos, no ha dado resultados satisfactorios.

Notes: Summary Rabies incidence is high in the State of Morelos, Mexico. The present study is based on the data obtained from relevant Government institutions. The results from 1980 to 1990 show an average of 3·3 human, and from 1985 to 1990 a total of 3,173 animal rabies positive reports. It was concluded that the anti-rabies programme in Mexico, particularly in the State of Morelos, has not produced adequate results.
