An outbreak of shigellosis in a child care institution in Queluz, Portugal - 1995
Authors: A Suspiro, L Menezes
Journal: Eurosurveillance (1996)

The introduction of shigella into a child care centre carries a high risk of secondary spread from person to person within the centre. We report an outbreak of shigellosis in early 1995 that affected 99 children, 17 of their relations, and seven workers i
Clinical supervision of the initial interview: effects on patient care
Authors: S Jaynes, E Charles, F Kass, S Holzman
Journal: American Journal of Psychiatry (1979)

The authors raise the question of whether the directly supervised initial evaluation of outpatients by psychiatric residents influences the quality of patient care. The charts of 78 patients with direct supervision and 78 patients with traditional supervision were randomly selected for review four months after the initial interview. More than twice as many patients with direct supervision remained in active treatment or terminated after successful short-term treatment compared with traditionally supervised patients in the early intake period. Patients with direct supervision also received a less pathological diagnosis.
Host Factors in Cancer of the Breast and Uterine Cervix and Corpus&lt;xref ref-type="fn" rid="FN1"&gt;2&lt;/xref&gt;

Journal: JNCI Journal of the National Cancer Institute (1960)

Among 910 women with cancer of the breast or reproductive system and 291 controls, a significant excess of Negro women and a deficit of Jewish women had cervical cancer. Ancestry was unrelated to 5-year survival among women with treated breast, cervical, or endometrial cancer. Negro women developed breast cancer 5 years earlier than white women, but age was unrelated to outcome of treated breast or cervical cancer. Age at natural menopause, alcohol consumption, and (with 667 controls) ABO blood type and age at menarche showed no association with cancer. Women with endometrial cancer, much heavier and stockier than age-matched normal women or those with breast or cervical cancer, had somatotypes with increased “endomorphy” (fat) rather than “mesomorphy” (bone and muscle). Those whose uterine corpus cancer developed before age 50 years were less obese and less fertile than those with later onset. White women with corpus cancer included a high percentage (19%) of diabetics, though the diabetics were no more obese than the non-diabetics, and were similar in ancestry. Women with cervical cancer and those responding poorly to therapy of cervical or breast cancer were low in mesomorphy, whereas Negro women with fibromyomas were strikingly mesomorphic. White women with cancer of the breast, cervix, or ovary were more feminine morphologically than normal white women. When compared with breast- or corpus-cancer patients, cervical-cancer patients were more likely to be married and at a younger age, to have more pregnancies and deliveries, to be less often nulliparous, and to develop cancer when married, even though nulliparous

Electronic Endoscopy of the Gastrointestinal Tract
Authors: M. Classen, J. Phillip
Journal: Endoscopy (1984)

We report on 31 endoscopic investigations using a new type of electronic endoscope which has no fiberoptic bundle for imaging. The device carries on its tip a light-sensitive CCD chip which functions as a TV camera. The signals received are transformed by a processor and displayed on a TV monitor. The upper digestive tract was inspected in 23 patients with the electronic endoscope and in the same session, a fiberoptic-endoscopic esophagogastroduodenoscopy was carried out on 16 of them. The information obtained using the 2 systems differed neither quantitatively nor qualitatively. Because of its external diameter, it was not possible to introduce the electronic endoscope past esophageal stenoses in 2 patients. Preliminary experience with 2 types of colonoscopes in 8 patients strongly indicates that these devices are equivalent, in respect of optical quality, to the fiberoptic endoscopes. The quality and color reproduction of the TV image of the upper and lower digestive tract are excellent. Electronic endoscopy offers great potential for consultation, training and documentation. The patients tolerated the procedure very well.

AIDS Research and the “Window of Opportunity”
Authors: William J. Curran
Journal: New England Journal of Medicine (1985)

The urgent effort in the science community to develop a test and a national screening program to detect antibody to the viral agent for the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is nearing completion. The federal government has selected four companies to conduct the complex investigations. Until a reliable test that can screen donor blood for the existence of the antibody is available, the entire supply of blood products used in therapeutic procedures throughout the country will continue to carry the risk of producing disease in blood-product recipients. A recently published study indicates that an initial screening test based on an enzyme-linked . . .

The dexamethasone suppression test in hospitalized prepubertal depressed children
Authors: E B Weller, R A Weller, M A Fristad, S H Preskorn
Journal: American Journal of Psychiatry (1984)

The dexamethasone suppression test was performed on 20 hospitalized prepubertal children who met DSM-III criteria for major depressive disorder. Fourteen children (70%) did not suppress cortisol secretion at either 8:00 a.m. or 4:00 p.m. The 4:00 p.m. value alone predicted 93% of the nonsuppressors.

Psychiatric observations of state and local politicians
Authors: E Messner
Journal: American Journal of Psychiatry (1977)

The author, a psychiatrist and an elected official in a small town, compares his observations of local politicians with a mental health commissioner's observations of politicians at the state level. The author feels that local politicians tend to be more strongly oriented toward relatively altruistic public service. Several factors, including personal ambition and reduced public scrutiny, may contribute to the apparently greater selfishness of politicians at the state level.

Reasoned discourse or a holy war: postscript to a report on ECT
Authors: F H Frankel
Journal: American Journal of Psychiatry (1975)

The author points out that both favorable and unfavorable opinions regarding the value of electroconvulsive therapy have become entrenched in the absence of adequate data. These opinions are discussed in relation to the training, experience, and personal orientation of the psychiatrist. The inability of some psychiatrists to tolerate uncertainty is held responsible for their denial of the validity of alternative methods of treatment. The author recommends that psychiatrists tolerate a certain amount of ambiguity and uncertainty: postponing closure may lead to the conclusion that treatment styles (including use of psychotherapy and ECT) are not mutually exclusive.
Case 29-1977
Authors: Richard C. Cabot, Robert E. Scully, James J. Galdabini, Betty U. McNeely, Homayoun Kazemi, Eugene J. Mark
Journal: New England Journal of Medicine (1977)

Presentation of CaseA 47-year-old woman was admitted to the hospital because of dyspnea.Twenty-eight years previously she began to have attacks of wheezing that were relieved with bronchodilator medication. Six weeks before entry she saw a physician because of fatigue and was found to be anemic; iron was prescribed. One month before admission she began to have exertional dyspnea, which progressed and was followed by dyspnea at rest. On the day of entry her physician admitted her to another hospital, where numerous rales were heard bilaterally. A specimen of arterial blood, drawn while she was breathing room air, disclosed . . .
Effect of diet on urinary MHPG excretion in depressed patients and normal control subjects
Authors: G Muscettola, T Wehr, F K Goodwin
Journal: American Journal of Psychiatry (1977)

The authors studied the effect of a catecholamine-controlled diet on the urinary level of 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol (MHPG) of 6 depressed patients and 6 normal volunteers. The normal subjects showed no change in MHPG levels on or off the diet; the depressed patients showed a significant increase in MHPG while off the diet.
Unusual Radiographic Manifestations of Parathyroid Adenoma
Authors: Daniel J. Hanson
Journal: New England Journal of Medicine (1962)

ALTHOUGH changes secondary to hyperparathyroidism, such as lytic lesions, urinary-tract calculi and characteristic alterations in the bones of the hands, are quite often seen in patients with parathyroid adenoma, radiographic demonstration of the tumor itself is often difficult or impossible, and usually requires special technics. In the following unusual case a mediastinal parathyroid adenoma was easily visible as a mass lesion in the anterior mediastinum and also appeared to have a calcified rim on radiographic examination.Case ReportA 50-year-old woman (M.F.H. 004,350) was admitted to the hospital in December, 1961, for investigation of pain in the hips, legs, knees . . .
PWE-295 Colorectal cancer management in the very elderly
Authors: C Zabkiewicz, R Chatha, T Sabah, A Oliver, T Kelly, G Whiteley
Journal: Gut (2015)

<h3>Introduction</h3> With an increasing elderly population we are more frequently having to address treatment of colorectal cancer in those over 80. Despite this, there is relatively little published UK data for these patients. North Wales has a significantly higher than average elderly population and our aim was to evaluate the treatment of colorectal cancer in those 80 years and older. <h3>Method</h3> This was a retrospective observational study. Data from the north wales cancer registry was used to identify all patients with a diagnosis of colorectal cancer from January 2009–July 2014. Patient case details were then cross referenced with local coding data, clinical/histopathological records and imaging records. We analysed diagnosis, treatment including operation (open versus laparoscopic and elective versus emergency). For those operated on we include 30 day mortality and length of hospital stay. Data for those aged 80 or over was compared to those under 80 using SPSS software. <h3>Results</h3> There were 942 total patients, of which 243 were over the age of 80(26%). 102 of 243(42%) were female. Age range was 80–110(Mean = 85). Significantly less of those over 80 underwent cancer resection (64% vs. 80% p = 0.0000). This was despite no significant difference in disease severity at diagnosis (p = 0.198). Overall 30 day mortality post surgery in the elderly resection group was worse when compared to the under 80 group (12.8% vs. 3% p = 0.0000). Of elderly patients undergoing elective surgical resection, 46% were laparoscopic compared to 52% in the under 80 group. 30 day mortality of the elderly laparoscopic group was significantly worse when compared to the under 80 group (10% vs. 2.6%) p = 0.015, however this difference was less sizeable than in open surgery category. Significantly more of the over 80s presented as an emergency (16% vs. 12% p = 0.008). Three quarters of the elderly emergency patients underwent surgery, for which the 30 day mortality was 23% compared to 6% of the under 80s (p = 0.0001). Length of stay was significantly higher in the over 80 group (p = 0.0001) with the average length of stay at (18.2 days vs. 13.1 days). Postoperative stay in elderly group was significantly more in open procedure than laparoscopic (Mean no days 21.0 vs. 14.4 P = 0.001). <h3>Conclusion</h3> Patients over 80 years old form a quarter of our colorectal cancer burden, and are more likely to present as emergencies and require longer hospital stays post operatively. Despite the perceived increased risks in this age group our data demonstrates we are performing resection surgery for a significant proportion with acceptable outcomes. Our data also supports the benefits of laparoscopic surgery in this age group. <h3>Disclosure of interest</h3> None Declared.
PTH-214 An audit reviewing the impact of a nutrition multi-disciplinary team on wastage of adult parenteral nutrition bags
Authors: S Shah, H Callaby, S Hoey, L Thompson, P Dubois, R Vincent
Journal: Gut (2015)

<h3>Introduction</h3> At our hospital prior to April 2014, patients commenced on parenteral nutrition (PN) were reviewed on a daily basis by the chemical pathology registrar and once weekly on a multi-disciplinary nutrition team (MDT) ward round. PN was prescribed and manufactured in advance where possible to help facilitate the work flow within the pharmacy aseptic unit. In April the nutrition MDT recruited a nutrition clinical nurse specialist (CNS) and introduced twice weekly consultant led MDT ward rounds. In addition, daily reviews of all PN patients are done by the CNS and a pharmacist with the registrar, for daily prescriptions. The aim of this audit was to assess the impact of the enhanced nutrition support MDT on: (1) the percentage of PN bags used for the intended patients, (2) the projected annual financial cost of wasted PN, (3) the percentage of PN bags that have been reallocated where cold chain storage is assured, (4) the cost saving incurred as a result of reallocating wasted PN bags. <h3>Method</h3> Prospective data was collected on adult PN bags over a three month period between October – December 2014. All PN bags ordered from an external provider and standard PN bags from the aseptic pharmacy department were included. Any PN bags from other hospitals and home PN bags were excluded. Information captured included: total number of adult PN bags, type of PN bag, reasons for wastage or return, why bag could not be reallocated, number of bags reallocated and the cost of the PN bag. The price for each PN bag was calculated based on the cost breakdown from the monthly PbR PN reporting for aseptic services. Results were compared to data collected during a previous audit undertaken between April–July 2014. <h3>Results</h3> 627 PN bags were ordered during the audit period. Out of which 91% (n = 568/627) were used for intended patient (an increase of 1%); the financial cost of wasted PN was £6,217 per annum (a decrease of 62%); 69% (n = 41/59) were reallocated (increase of 5%); and the cost saving was £8,926 per annum (an increase of 37%). <h3>Conclusion</h3> The inclusion of a CNS and a pharmacist to the daily ward rounds as well as daily prescribing of adult PN bags significantly improved the utilisation of PN bags appropriately and minimised waste. A system to highlight which PN bags are available for reallocation should be introduced locally to avoid available bags not being utilised. <h3>Disclosure of interest</h3> None Declared.
PWE-391 Post-operative complications following extra-levator abdominoperineal excision (elape): a retrospective audit
Authors: LC Ewan, S Shaw, S Rai
Journal: Gut (2015)

<h3>Introduction</h3> To determine the nature and frequency of general and perineal wound complications following ELAPE using biological mesh reconstruction of the pelvic floor. <h3>Method</h3> This single-centre retrospective audit included 14 consecutive patients from Nov 2012 to Sept 2014. All patients underwent ELAPE for low rectal tumours and had primary pelvic floor reconstruction using Strattice biological mesh. Data collected included tumour staging, neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and post-operative complications. <h3>Results</h3> 14 patients included (M:F ratio 4:1) had a mean age of 65yrs (47–83yrs). All received long-course (n = 12) or short-course (n = 2) radiotherapy. Post-op resection margins were R0 (n = 13) and R2 in 1 case. Tumours were staged at T1 (n = 3), T2 (n = 6) or T3 (n = 5) prior to radiotherapy. General complications included one death due to a urethral injury and subsequent urosepsis. Two patients developed post-operative ileus, one requiring TPN. There were 3 abdominal wound infections treated at the bedside. 12 perineal wounds healed without surgical or radiological intervention with any complications being treated on an outpatient basis. A pelvic collection required percutaneous drainage and 2 superficial wound infections were treated with antibiotics. Wound dehiscence occurred in 6 patients (3 superficial without infection, 1 superficial with infection, 1complete dehiscence with infection and1due to ureto-cutaneous fistula). Chronic perineal pain developed in 1 patient. 5 patients had no perineal wound complications. <h3>Conclusion</h3> Overall 12 patients recovered well with no further intervention. Perineal wound complications were managed on an outpatient basis with no long-term problem with pelvic sepsis or wound healing. No mesh infections have been observed to date. <h3>Disclosure of interest</h3> None Declared. <h3>References</h3> Foster JD, Pathak S, Smart NJ, <i>et al</i>.
