"RECONSTRUCTION AND REHABILITATION OF THE TUBERCULOUS SOLDIER"
Authors: Charles E. Banks
Journal: JAMA (1918)

To the Editor:  —The article by Lieut.-Col. E. H. Bruns of the National Army (The Journal, Aug. 3, 1918, p. 373) on the Reconstruction and Rehabilitation of the Tuberculous Soldier presents in an interesting manner the plans of the Army Medical Corps in the matter of rehabilitation and vocational training of this class of disabled soldiers. As this is a matter largely of departmental or possibly governmental domestic policy, as stated by Colonel Bruns, it is not my intention to enter into any discussion of it except to say that if the plan can be carried out it would seem that the Federal Board for Vocational Education and the Bureau of War Risk Insurance would have little opportunity to exercise the functions delegated to them by law after the Army Medical Corps had decided to order all to tuberculosis hospitals suffering from that disease, and following it by complete vocational

Pneumoperitoneum and Right Upper Quadrant Gas in a Diabetic Man
Authors: Charles F. Butler, Herbert L. Fred, Victor Carlson
Journal: JAMA (1976)

History  An 86-year-old man experienced anorexia and vomiting for three days. His previous health had been good. On examination, he was acutely ill and had scleral icterus, diffuse abdominal tenderness, and fever to 39 C.  His total white blood cell count was 24,000/cu mm; blood glucose concentration, 600 mg/100 ml; and urine glucose, 4 +. Roentgenographic studies included a chest film and a spot film of the right upper quadrant of the abdomen (Fig 1 and 2).  Diagnosis  Emphysematous cholecystitis.  Comment  Chest roentgenogram (Fig 1) shows a right upper lobe infiltrate, air beneath the right hemidiaphragm, and a poorly depicted gas-fluid level in the gallbladder region. To clarify the gasfluid level, the abdominal film (Fig 2) was obtained. Gas outlines the major bile ducts (arrows) and gallbladder.  After receiving antibiotics and fluids for one day, the patient successfully underwent removal of a distended gangrenous gallbladder, which contained foul-smelling pus and a

Aspirin Use, Colorectal Cancer Survival, and Loss to Follow-up
Authors: Anna E. Coghill
Journal: JAMA (2009)

To the Editor: Dr Chan and colleagues reported the results of an observational study of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID) use in the Nurses’ Health Study (NHS), in which a significant reduction in colorectal cancer– specific mortality was observed with regular postdiagnostic aspirin use (odds ratio, 0.71; 95% confidence interval, 0.53-0.95), but not with prediagnostic use. We have concerns about the interpretation of these results because of patient losses to the study population. Research investigating the association between NSAID use and colorectal cancer survival should include all incident colorectal cancer cases to validly generalize results to the larger patient population. All study participants in the study by Chan et al belonged to the NHS cohort; in the colorectal cancer survival study, an NHS cohort member was identified as a diagnosed case of colorectal cancer via the biennial mailed questionnaire. After noting diagnosis of colorectal cancer in the biennial questionnaire, study participants then had to consent to release of medical and pathology records for use in the present study. Due to the potential for significant lag time between diagnosis of colorectal cancer in NHS cohort members and entry into the present study as a participant, a number of colorectal cancer patients may have died before being detected. The result is that information, including both NSAID exposure and vital status, may have been lost from the study. The authors do not include information on how many colorectal cancer cases were expected in the NHS cohort, how many colorectal cancer cases were actually diagnosed, or how many cases were brought to the attention of the survival study for specimen collection and mortality follow up. Much of this information should be available through links with state and national registries. Patient loss before specimen collection and follow-up may have resulted in an analysis population that reflected the experience of patients who survived at least long enough to report colorectal cancer diagnosis to the study, not the general patient population. It is reasonable to expect that this group of longer-term survival patients may have experienced improved survival overall and had disease that was either less severe or affected differently by medications, including NSAIDs. The consequence of losing information on mortality events that occur before full data collection is that the population selected for study follow-up does not represent the general patient population; rather, any observed associations, or lack thereof, are relevant only to those patients who survived long enough to be detected.

Safety of genetically engineered foods is still dubious
Authors: P. Holden
Journal: BMJ (1999)

EDITOR—The editorial by Derek Burke, former chair of the government's Advisory Committee on Novel Foods and Processes (ACRE), certainly had a reassuring tone about it, but it also suffered from a fairly major dose of complacency.1 It would be surprising if a man who had for nine years chaired the committee that authorised the release of genetically engineered seeds for testing in trial plots had any serious doubts about the decisions he made. Most consumers now think otherwise. …

In modern surgical practice amputation should not be regarded as a failure. Once a considered decision has been made to proceed with the ablation of a limb (for whatever reason), it is vital that the principles of preparation, surgical reconstruction, and rehabilitation are understood and correctly applied.

Performing Nondiagnostic Research Biopsies in Irradiated Tissue: A Review of Scientific, Clinical, and Ethical Considerations
Authors: Aaron P. Brown, David S. Wendler, Kevin A. Camphausen, Franklin G. Miller, Deborah Citrin
Journal: Journal of Clinical Oncology (2008)

Purpose Recent development of drugs that target specific pathways in tumors has increased scientific interest in studying drug effects on tumor tissue. As a result, biopsies have become an important part of many early-phase clinical trials. Performing nondiagnostic tumor biopsies raises technical and ethical concerns mostly related to the use of a potentially harmful procedure with no potential benefit to the patient. This issue is complicated by uncertainty about whether performing biopsies in irradiated fields adds significant risk. This article reviews the clinical, scientific, and ethical considerations involved in performing nondiagnostic tumor biopsies in competent adults for research purposes, with a focus on biopsies performed in the setting of therapeutic irradiation. Methods Clinical trials that performed biopsies during or within 4 months of the completion of radiotherapy were identified with a literature review. Results Twenty-nine studies with 2,160 patients were identified. Sixteen of 29 studies reported adverse events (AEs) but did not report active evaluation for biopsy complications. Ten studies did not mention AEs within the study report. At least three studies actively evaluated patients for biopsy complications. Taking this into consideration, 17 (&gt;1%) of 2,160 patients were reported to have biopsy complications, although reporting of AEs was suboptimal in most studies. Conclusion Limited data suggest that biopsies can be performed in irradiated tissues without clinically significant excess risk. Ongoing and future trials including nondiagnostic research biopsies should record and report AEs related to this procedure to provide additional data on safety and toxicity.
Strength of evidence for perioperative use of statins to reduce cardiovascular risk: systematic review of controlled studies
Authors: Anmol S Kapoor, Hussein Kanji, Jeanette Buckingham, P J Devereaux, Finlay A McAlister
Journal: BMJ (2006)

<b>Objective</b> To determine the strength of evidence underlying recommendations for use of statins during the perioperative period to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events. <b>Design</b> Systematic review of studies with concurrent control groups. <b>Data sources</b> Four electronic databases, the references of identified studies, international experts on perioperative medicine, and the authors of the primary studies. <b>Review methods</b> Two reviewers independently extracted data from studies that reported acute coronary syndromes or mortality in patients receiving or not receiving statins during the perioperative period. <b>Main outcome measure</b> Random effects summary odds ratios for death or acute coronary syndrome during the perioperative period. <b>Results</b> 18 studies—two randomised trials (n=177), 15 cohort studies (n=799 632), and one case-control study (n=480)—assessed whether statins provide perioperative cardiovascular protection; 12 studies enrolled patients undergoing non-cardiac vascular surgery, four enrolled patients undergoing coronary bypass surgery, and two enrolled patients undergoing various surgical procedures. In the randomised trials the summary odds ratio for death or acute coronary syndrome during the perioperative period with statin use was 0.26 (95% confidence interval 0.07 to 0.99) and the summary odds ratio in the cohort studies was 0.70 (0.57 to 0.87). Although the pooled cohort data provided a statistically significant result, statins were not randomly allocated, results in retrospective studies were larger (odds ratio 0.65, 0.50 to 0.84) than those in the prospective cohorts (0.91, 0.65 to 1.27), and dose, duration, and safety of statin use was not reported. <b>Conclusion</b> The evidence base for routine administration of statins to reduce perioperative cardiovascular risk is inadequate.

On the Optimization Principle in Phylogenetic Analysis and the Minimum-Evolution Criterion
Authors: Olivier Gascuel
Journal: Molecular Biology and Evolution (2000)

This paper discusses the optimization principle in phylogenetic analysis, in the case of distance data. We argue that the use of this principle cannot be called into question, except for computing time reasons. We show that the minimum-evolution criterion is not perfectly suited for distance data estimated from sequences, and we present another approach, implemented in the BIONJ algorithm, which allows the data features to be taken into account, while being less demanding in computing time. Simulations show that BIONJ significantly outperforms NJ.
