They report two cases of their own and collect a number of others recorded in the literature. The pain is of the same nature as that of tic douloureaux except that it is located at the base of the tongue and in the back of the throat instead of in the face.Medical treatment is not very effective—it consists chiefly of the inhalations of from 15 to 30 drops of trichlorethylene three or four times a day.

Open randomised trial of intermittent very low energy diet together with nicotine gum for stopping smoking in women who gained weight in previous attempts to quit Commentary: results are unlikely to be as good in routine practice
Authors: T. Danielsson, S. Rossner, A. Westin, K. Jones
Journal: BMJ (1999)

<h3>Abstract</h3> <b>Objective:</b> To determine whether attempts to prevent weight gain will increase success rates for stopping smoking. <b>Design:</b> 16 week, open, randomised study with 1 year follow up. <b>Setting:</b> Obesity unit. <b>Subjects:</b> 287 female smokers who had quit smoking before but started again because of weight concerns. <b>Intervention:</b> Combination of a standard smoking cessation programme with nicotine gum and a behavioural weight control programme including a very low energy diet. A control group was treated with the identical programme but without the diet. <b>Main outcome measure:</b> Sustained cessation of smoking. <b>Results:</b> After 16 weeks, 68/137 (50%) women had stopped smoking in the diet group versus 53/150 (35%) in the control group (P=0.01). Among these women, weight fell by mean 2.1 (95% confidence interval 2.9 to 1.3) kg in the diet group but increased by 1.6 (0.9 to 2.3) kg in the control group (P&lt;0.001). After 1 year the success rates in the diet and control groups were 38/137 (28%) and 24/150 (16%) respectively (P&lt;0.05), but there was no statistical difference in weight gain. <b>Conclusions:</b> Combining the smoking cessation programme with an intervention to control weight helped women to stop smoking and control weight.

Standard vs Modified Antiplatelet Preparation for Preventing Thromboembolic Events in Patients With High On-Treatment Platelet Reactivity Undergoing Coil Embolization for an Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysm
Authors: Gyojun Hwang, Won Huh, Jin Soo Lee, Jay Bautista Villavicencio, Reynaldo Benedict V. Villamor, Seong Yeol Ahn, Junhak Kim, Jun Young Chang, Soo Joo Park, Nam-Mi Park, Eun-A Jeong, O-Ki Kwon
Journal: JAMA Neurology (2015)

Thromboembolism is the most common complication in coiling for an unruptured aneurysm and is frequent in patients with high on-treatment platelet reactivity (HTPR) who are prescribed a standard antiplatelet preparation for its prevention.To evaluate the effect of a modified antiplatelet preparation compared with a standard preparation in patients with HTPR undergoing coiling.A prospective randomized open-label active-control trial with blinded outcome assessment at the Seoul National University Bundang Hospital from May 27, 2013, to April 7, 2014. Patients with HTPR were randomly assigned (1 to 1) to the standard or modified preparation group. Patients without HTPR were assigned to the non-HTPR group. A total of 228 patients undergoing coiling for unruptured aneurysms were enrolled and allocated to the study, 126 in the HTPR group (63 to the standard preparation group and 63 to the modified preparation group) and 102 to the non-HTPR group. Intent-to-treat analysis was performed.The modified preparation (HTPR to aspirin, 300 mg of aspirin and 75 mg of clopidogrel bisulfate; and HTPR to clopidogrel, 200 mg of cilostazol added to the standard regimen) was performed before coiling in the modified preparation group. Standard preparation (100 mg of aspirin and 75 mg of clopidogrel) was maintained in the standard preparation and non-HTPR groups.The primary outcome was a thromboembolic event defined as thromboembolism during coiling and a transient ischemic attack or ischemic stroke within 7 days after coiling. The principal secondary outcome was a bleeding complication according to Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction bleeding criteria within 30 days after coil embolization.The thromboembolic event rate was low in the modified preparation group (1 of 63 [1.6%]) compared with the standard preparation group (7 of 63 [11.1%]; adjusted risk difference, -11.7% [95% CI, -21.3% to -2.0%]; P = .02), which had a higher thromboembolic risk than the non-HTPR group (1 of 102 [1.0%]; adjusted risk difference, 8.6% [95% CI, 1.0% to 16.3%]; P = .03). All bleeding complications were of minimal grade according to Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction bleeding criteria. The bleeding rate was not different between the modified (6 of 63 [9.5%]) and standard (4 of 63 [6.3%]) preparation groups (adjusted risk difference, 5.6% [95% CI, -4.2% to 15.4%]; P = .26).Modified antiplatelet preparation for patients with HTPR compared with standard antiplatelet preparation reduced the thromboembolic event rate in coiling for an unruptured aneurysm without increasing bleeding.Clinical Research Information Service Identifier: KCT0000804.

Association of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus With Uranium Exposure in a Community Living Near a Uranium‐Processing Plant: A Nested Case–Control Study
Authors: Pai‐Yue Lu‐Fritts, Leah C. Kottyan, Judith A. James, Changchung Xie, Jeanette M. Buckholz, Susan M. Pinney, John B. Harley
Journal: Arthritis & Rheumatology (2014)

Objective To explore the hypothesis that cases of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) would be found more frequently in community members with high prior uranium exposure in the Fernald Community Cohort (FCC). Methods A nested case–control study was performed using data from the FCC, a volunteer population of individuals who had resided near a uranium ore–processing plant in Fernald, Ohio during the years of plant operation; uranium plant workers were excluded. Members of the FCC were monitored for 18 years. SLE cases were identified using the American College of Rheumatology 1997 revised classification criteria, laboratory testing, and medical record review. Each case was matched to 4 controls by age, race, and sex. Sera from potential cases and controls were screened for autoantibodies. Cumulative exposure to uranium particulates was calculated using a dosimetry model. Logistic regression with covariates was used to calculate the odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) for the probability of an association between uranium exposure and SLE. Results The FCC comprised 4,187 individuals with minimal levels of uranium exposure, 1,273 with moderate exposure, and 2,756 with high exposure. The diagnosis of SLE was confirmed in 23 of 31 individuals who had been assigned International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision codes for lupus, and was also confirmed in 2 of 43 individuals who had been prescribed hydroxychloroquine. The female to male ratio was 5.25:1. Of the 25 confirmed SLE cases, 12 were in the high exposure group. The presence of SLE was associated with higher levels of uranium exposure (OR 3.92, 95% CI 1.13–13.59; P = 0.031). Conclusion High uranium exposure is associated with SLE, as compared to matched controls, in this sample of uranium‐exposed individuals. Potential explanations for this relationship include possible autoimmune or estrogen effects of uranium, somatic mutation, epigenetic effects, or effects of some other unidentified accompanying exposure.

A STUDY OF THE NUTRITIONAL DEFECT IN WERNICKE'S SYNDROME
Authors: Gerald B. Phillips, Maurice Victor, Raymond D. Adams, Charles S. Davidson
Journal: Journal of Clinical Investigation (1952)

The salient clinical features of Wernicke's syndrome (1) are partial to complete paralysis of extra-ocular muscles (most commonly the external recti), nystagmus, ataxia and mental disturbances. Postmortem examination reveals changes in the nervous structures adjacent to the third and fourth ventricles and the aqueduct. The lesions are characterized by varying degrees of necrosis of both nerve cells and nerve fibers with appropriate reactions of microglia and astrocytes, alteration of the small blood vessels, and in some cases, petechial hemorrhages (2-5). The syndrome is usually associated with chronic alcoholism and for that reason has sometimes been attributed to a neurotoxic effect of the alcohol; but the occurrence of the same clinical sequence in non-alcoholic patients with malnutrition (1, 2, 4-8) has directed attention to nutritional deficiency as the etiological basis. Moreover, similar pathological lesions have been produced in the rat (9, 10), fox (11, 12), and pigeon (3, 9, 13, 14), by maintaining these animals on thiamine-deficient diets.
You are what you eat

Journal: Gut Microbes (2014)

Gut bacteria is now considered as an additional host organ, and it has been shown that they have important influences on host developmental and physiological processes. More recently gut bacteria have additionally been implicated in behavioral processes. We showed that in two species of Drosophila, gut bacteria variation affects behavior, altering partner investment in copulation in relation to whether individuals were familiar (i.e., having developed in the same environment), or were related. This suggests that gut bacteria play a role in kin recognition in these species. We suggest that this phenomenon is associated with gut bacteria influencing the scent profiles used by Drosophila in mate choice.

Israel bans smoking from almost all public places
Authors: Judy Siegel-Itzkovich
Journal: BMJ (2001)

A committee of Israel's parliament unexpectedly adopted regulations last week that make its antismoking laws among the toughest in the world.

Soon after returning from the recess called because of the prime ministerial election, the Knesset's labour, social affairs, and health committee approved the banning of smoking in the public places where it was not already banned.

In three months, when the new restrictions take effect, smoking will be banned in all hospitals and medical clinics, public areas of shopping malls, public corridors or waiting rooms, lecture halls and celebration halls, …

The US Senate Committee on Finance chaired by Democratic senator Max Baucus of Montana held hearings last month on how self styled consultants run seminars teaching doctors how to boost their Medicare and insurance payments.

Dr Kathryn Locatell, a private practitioner from Sacramento, California, testified: “While employed as a faculty member of the University of California, Davis School of Medicine, in early 1998, I attended a ‘mandatory’ seminar about coding and billing for faculty outpatient medical care presented by consultants to the medical …
Impaired IFN-α secretion by plasmacytoid dendritic cells induced by TLR9 activation in chronic idiopathic urticaria
Authors: E. Futata, M. Azor, J. Dos Santos, C. Maruta, M. Sotto, F. Guedes, E. Rivitti, A. Duarte, M. Sato
Journal: British Journal of Dermatology (2010)

Understanding the early events of the immune response, through the activation of plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC) by Toll-like receptor (TLR)9-sensing, could contribute to the evaluation of immune dysregulation in chronic idiopathic urticaria (CIU).We decided to investigate innate immunity in CIU and the mechanisms implicated in the modulation of interferon (IFN)-α production by pDC upon TLR9 activation.Patients with CIU (n = 31) and healthy control subjects (HC, n = 36) were enrolled in the study. Leucocytes cultured with the TLR9 ligand, CpG type A, or with inhibitory-oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN) were used to determine IFN-α secretion by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Enumeration of pDC, intracellular IFN-α and signal transducers and activators of transcription protein (STAT) (1 and 4) phosphorylation were assessed by flow cytometry. TLR9 and regulatory factor-7 mRNA transcripts were evaluated by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Evidence of pDC in the skin lesions of patients was analysed with immunohistochemistry staining.The findings show a decreased IFN-α secretion induced by CpG A by leucocytes, due to the diminished IFN-α expression on pDC in CIU. It was mediated by TLR9-activation since inhibitory-ODN further suppressed TLR9-induced IFN-α secretion. A normal pDC percentage and degree of activation by the expression of costimulatory molecules was observed in CIU, with the rare presence of pDC in the skin lesion. In addition, an increased constitutive STAT1 phosphorylation on nonstimulated lymphocytes and a downregulation of TLR9 mRNA transcripts after CpG A activation were verified in patients with CIU.The findings showed an innate immune response in CIU disturbed by impairment of the pDC response to TLR9 activation.
