The capillary syndrome in hemorrhagic cystitis therapeutic evaluation of bio-flavonoids

Capillary Fragility in Older People. The Evaluation of Bio‐flavonoid Therapy†

“…Among 45 patients with epistaxis observed by us, 30 had increased capillary fragility when checked with the petechiometer. The petechial index was high (up to [35][36][37] in the majority of these cases. Seven aged patients suffering from virus influenza had severe epistaxis; 4 of them were hypertensive and 3 had normal blood pressure.…”

“…It was tested clinically in various conditions in which increased capillary fragility and capillary bleeding occurred. The therapeutic usefulness of this bio‐flavonoid compound has been demonstrated in radiation erythema (32, 33), retinitis (34), bleeding duodenal ulcer (35), bleeding cystitis (36), erythroblastosis (37, 38), habitual abortion (39), tuberculous hemoptysis (40), hemorrhagic diatheses (41), otolaryngologic disorders (42, 43), periodontal diseases (44), and in increased capillary fragility in the aged (45). It also reduces the inflammation in bacterial and viral infections (16, 46–50).…”
