“…W/V in normal saline) were given according to the method of Holti (1965). Patients were admitted to hospital an average of four times at 3 to 5 week intervals to receive a continuous infusion of 2 1. dextran given over 48 hours on each occasion.…”

“…Holti (1965) convincingly demonstrated that intermittent infusions temporarily improved digital ischaemic phenomena in ten out of twelve patients with scleroderma and noted that "these patients claimed to be remarkably better in themselves with an increased exercise tolerance and softening of their indurated facial skin".…”

“…Methods of treatment which have been insufficiently tried are the use of low-molecular weight dextran (10%Y Rheomacrodex) by Holti (1965) and of hyperbaric oxygen (Copeman, Ashfield & Dowling, 1967). In patients with systemic scleroderma, improvement has been claimed for several weeks after treatment by either method.…”

“…De même, chez l'homme, si la vasoconstriction périphérique induite par un stéroïde topique est suffisante pour entraîner un blanchiment cutanée visible à l'oeil nu, il est loisible de penser que cette même vasoconstriction provoque une diminution locale de la température cutanée. Déjà lors de l'étude de cas de sclérodermie, Holti [11] a observé une variation de la température cutanée proportionnelle au flot sanguin local. Dans la présente étude, nous avons voulu vérifier s'il était possible d'évaluer l'effet vasoconstricteur d'un stéroïde topique à l'aide de l'enregistrement de la température cutanée.…”
