Abstract
1. To the criteria already described which can be employed to discriminate between deficiency in the bloodflow (in the hands or feet) due to mechanical causes and deficiency due to vasomotor action, may be added the behavior of the flow when drugs which cause vasodilatation (nitroglycerine, alcohol) are administered.
2. Alcoholic beverages (wine, whisky) cause first a diminution and then an increase in the hand flow.
