“…Changes within each group in pregnancy com pared with prepregnant data, data in week 1 2 , or postpartum results were tested with the Wilcoxon matched-paired rank test. For comparison of the serial data in the diet period between the two groups, a distribution-free test described by Koziol et al (14) was used. This test is suitable for the comparison of response curves when missing values are present, For each variable, some women had one or two missing values at dif ferent time points.…”

Dietary sodium restriction is used in the Neth erlands in the prophylaxis of preeclampsia. To study the effects of long-term sodium restriction on the intake of other nutrients and the outcome of pregnancy, 6 8 healthy nulliparous pregnant women were randomly assigned to either a low-sodium diet (20 mmol/24 h) or an unrestricted diet. The diet was consumed between week 14 of gestation and delivery. The dietary intakes of energy, fat, protein, carbohydrate, sodium, potassium, and calcium were esti mated with the dietary-history technique. A low-sodium diet re duced the intake of protein (by «=15 g/24 h), fat (by 20 g/24 h), and calcium (by 350 mg/24 h) and tended to decrease the energy intake (by ^O.? MJ/24 h). The intakes of carbohydrate and potassium did not differ between the groups. The maternal weight gain was less in the low-sodium group (6.0 ± 3 .7 compared with 11.7 ± 4.7 kg). Mean birth weight was not significantly different (3.2 ± 0.5 compared with 3.4 ± 0.5 kg).Am J Clin Nutv 1995;62:49-57.KEY WORDS Sodium-restricted diet, pregnancy, prophy laxis of preeclampsia, energy intake, fat intake, protein intake, carbohydrate intake, calcium intake, maternal weight gain, birth weight, body fat mass

A 2-year, placebo-controlled, double-blind, crossover study was started in 1992 to evaluate cladribine, an immunosuppressive drug, in the treatment of chronic progressive multiple sclerosis. In the first year patients were given cladribine 0.10 mg/kg per day for 7 days as four monthly courses for a total of 2.8 mg/kg or placebo. During the second year patients treated with placebo during the first year were given i.v. infusions of 0.10 mg, 0.05 mg, and 0. Since there is no satisfactory treatment for chronic progressive MS, the use of cladribine was considered because of its relatively low toxicity and the long-lasting lymphopenia that it produces. Open-label feasibility studies were begun in 1990 with a small number of patients. The results in terms of both apparent benefit on neurological performance and lack of toxicity were favorable and encouraged us to proceed with a larger 2-yr placebo-controlled crossover study to further explore issues of safety and therapeutic effect. The first-year results of this study showed a positive effect (7). We now report observations from the entire 2 yr of this double-blind study and an additional 6-mo unblinded follow-up. tTo whom reprint requests should be addressed at: METHODS
