Intramural hematoma of the duodenum associated with peroral small-bowel biopsy
Authors: J. J. Tobin
Journal: JAMA (1966)

PERORAL BIOPSY of the small bowel is now a well-accepted diagnostic technique. Procedures are simple, problems are uncommon, and the yield of information is good. At the present time, more than 15 biopsy capsule systems are available. A review of the various capsules and procedures has been published recently.<sup>1</sup> Duodenal hematoma, although not uncommonly the result of external trauma to the abdomen, has not, to our knowledge, been previously reported as a complication of small-bowel biopsy. <h3>Report of a Case</h3> A 21-year-old white soldier was admitted to a naval hospital in November 1964 with a three-month history of diarrhea manifested by eight to ten watery, foul-smelling stools per day. Initially the diarrhea was painless, but soon abdominal cramping occurred. In four months he lost 10 kg (22 lb). Family history, personal history, and review of systems were not helpful. He was noted to be a thin, pale individual in
THE "ESSENCE" OF SULFONAMIDE QUACKERY
Journal: JAMA (1942)

Physicians have recently been circularized by the Koch Laboratories, Inc., of 8181 East Jefferson Avenue, Detroit, with regard to an item which is called "1:4 Benzoquinone" or "BQ" and described as one of "Koch's Synthetic Antitoxins." The so-called 1:4 Benzoquinone is designated as the "active principle of the sulfonamide series." In the promotional material for 1:4 Benzoquinone appears a statement that it has been in use since 1922.The Journalhas commented frequently<sup>1</sup>on the promotion of Koch's "Glyoxylide," which he claims was introduced at the same time. Since reference to the promotional material for Glyoxylide does not indicate any active promotion for Benzoquinone, this would seem to be essentially, if not technically, a new drug. The promotional material for 1:4 Benzoquinone (Koch) does not contain any references to medical writings to substantiate the claim that this is the active principle of the sulfonamide series. Neither is there any
Electronic management of fecal incontinence
Authors: B. H. Fischer
Journal: JAMA (1969)

Electrical stimulation of the anal sphincter was used in six incontinent patients, resulting in control of fecal incontinence in five patients. One patient was unable to retain the electrode because of improper size and shape of the plug, which was cylindrical in contour. Only the external method was used, ie, variously shaped electrodes were inserted in the anal canal. Best results were obtained when hourglass-shaped plugs were used. It is postulated that control of fecal incontinence was achieved by contraction of the ana sphincter as well as by restoration of the tonus of the pelvic diaphragm. Since all patients had an indwelling urinary-tract catheter, no conclusions were drawn regarding the effect of electrical stimuli upon the urinary pathways. No adverse reactions were noted.

Diagnosis and Treatment of Digitalis Toxicity
Authors: William A. Sodeman
Journal: New England Journal of Medicine (1965)

THE ascendancy of digitalis intoxication in recent years has made this problem and its recognition an ever important clinical consideration in every patient receiving the drug. Much of this increase is due to increased awareness of the clinical entity, increased longevity of the population in general (particularly added numbers of elderly people with cardiovascular disease), use of newer preparations and changing patterns in digitalis administration and newer forms of treatment, such as effective diuretic and dietary therapy, which have added factors of importance tending to precipitate or permit subtle evolution of toxicity. Estimates disclose that of those taking digitalis toxicity . . .
Meta-analysis of empirical long-term antiarrhythmic therapy after myocardial infarction
Authors: L. K. Hine
Journal: JAMA (1989)

SUDDEN cardiac death remains a major cause of mortality and a significant public health concern. At least 40% of sudden deaths occur in people with clinically overt heart disease, and among patients with coronary heart disease, the risk of sudden death is relatively greater for those patients who have had a myocardial infarction (MI) than for those who have not.<sup>1</sup>Approximately 50% of MI-related deaths are sudden and usually caused by ventricular arrhythmias.<sup>2,3</sup>Although the majority of these deaths occur in the earliest phases of MI,<sup>4</sup>the risk of mortality beyond 1 year after MI remains four to eight times greater than that for comparable patients who did not have an MI.<sup>5,6</sup>Approximately 35% to 40% of deaths that occur late after MI will be caused by sudden death.<sup>7</sup> The presence of premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) after MI has been shown to be a risk
Impact of the date of diagnosis on the clinical course of children with primary ciliary dyskinesia
Authors: Folke Brinkmann, Nicolaus Schwerk, Theresa Emmrich, Gesine Hansen
Journal: European Respiratory Journal (2011)

Objective:  Up to now, little is known about the impact of the date of diagnosis on the clinical course of children with primary ciliary dyskinesia (pcd).   Methods:  Over a ten year period all paediatric patients with confirmed pcd in a tertiary centre who could be followed up for more than 12 months were retrospectively included in the study.   Results:  Out of 19 patients 63% had a situs inversus, the median age a diagnosis was 95 months. There was a significant correlation between the date of diagnosis and development of bronchiectasis (p=0,04), but no effect on lung function. 12 months after diagnosis 75% of patients received professional physiotherapy, 88% were on continuous antibiotic therapy, 50% on inhaled β2 agonists and 13% on inhaled corticosteroids.  After starting the treatment, all patients improved clinically, the number of pulmonary complications decreased, especially pneumonias (p=0,03) and bronchitis (p=0,01). Chronic wet cough and rhinitis often persisted and lung function measurements did not improve permanently.   Conclusions:  Late diagnosis of pcd carries an increased risk for developing bronchiectasis. Pulmonary exacerbations decrease with appropriate treatment whereas there is no significant effect on lung function parameters.

Tubal sterilization and subsequent ectopic pregnancy. A case-control study
Authors: V. L. Holt
Journal: JAMA (1991)

<h3>Objective.</h3> —To assess the relative risk of ectopic pregnancy associated with postpartum or interval tubal sterilization. <h3>Design.</h3> —Case-control study using a comparison group of women of reproductive age at risk of pregnancy. <h3>Setting.</h3> —Group Health Cooperative of Puget Sound, a health maintenance organization based in Seattle, Wash. <h3>Participants.</h3> —Cases were 249 enrollees diagnosed as having an ectopic pregnancy between October 1, 1981, and September 30, 1986. Controls were 835 randomly selected enrollees matched to cases on age and county of residence. <h3>Measurements.</h3> —Information on interval sterilization history was obtained from interviews, examination of medical records, automated hospitalization files, and a previously validated algorithm. A logistic regression model was used to estimate relative risks (RRs) for sterilized women compared with women using other types of or no contraception at the reference date. <h3>Results.</h3> —Controlling for age, county, race, smoking, income, gravidity, and prior use of a Dalkon Shield intrauterine device, the risk of ectopic pregnancy in women who had undergone interval sterilization was 3.7 (95% confidence interval [Cl], 1.7 to 8.0) times that of women currently using oral contraception and 2.8 (95% Cl, 1.5 to 5.5) times that of women currently using barrier contraceptive methods. Use of interval sterilization was associated with a risk of ectopic pregnancy similar to that of women using intrauterine devices (RR, 0.8; 95% Cl, 0.4 to 1.7) and a risk lower than that of women who were not using contraception (RR, 0.2; 95% Cl, 0.1 to 0.3). The corresponding RRs associated with postpartum sterilization were lower: 1.2 (95% Cl, 0.3 to 3.9), 0.9 (95% Cl, 0.3 to 2.8), 0.3 (95% Cl, 0.1 to 0.8), and 0.1 (95% Cl, 0.0 to 0.2), respectively. <h3>Conclusion.</h3> —Tubal sterilization provides some protection against extrauterine as well as intrauterine pregnancy. It is likely that postpartum sterilization can be a safe alternative to all types of temporary contraception in terms of risk of ectopic pregnancy, while some types of interval sterilization may lead to an increased risk, in comparison with use of oral contraceptives or barrier methods.

Radioimmunoassay for calcitonin in medullary thyroid carcinoma
Authors: L. J. Deftos
Journal: JAMA (1974)

Basal levels of calcitonin were abnormally elevated in 26 of 33 patients with medullary carcinoma of the thyroid. In three patients with nondiagnostic basal concentrations, calcitonin increased to diagnostic levels after calcium infusion; only a ten-minute infusion was needed in one patient. In some patients, the ratio of calcitonin in veins draining the tumor to that in peripheral veins ranged from 4.3 to 57.0. These studies demonstrate the value of the calcitonin immunoassay in the diagnosis and localization of medullary thyroid carcinoma.
Assessment of Human Exposure to Polychlorinated Dibenzofurans and Dioxins
Authors: Christopher Rappe, Martin Nygren, Stellan Marklund, Lars-Owe Keller, Per-Anders Bergqvist, Marianne Hansson
Journal: Environmental Health Perspectives (1985)

Fires, explosions and other accidents in polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB)-filled equipment can result in possible exposure of firemen, cleaning personnel and regular workers. Inhalation, dermal exposure and ingestion are the possible routes of exposure. An indirect assessment of the exposure can be made by analyses of wipes, air and water samples and clothes. A direct assessment of exposure can be made by analyses of blood samples, adipose and other tissue samples, feces and bile.

Splenosis
Authors: A ARZOUMANIAN, L ROSENTHALL
Journal: Clinical Nuclear Medicine (1995)

At the age of 15, a male patient was injured in an automotive accident. Findings at laparotomy included multiple ruptures of the spleen and a laceration of the left kidney. A splenectomy was performed, the left kidney was sutured and approximately 1500 ml of intra-abdominal blood was aspirated. Thirty years later, he was admitted to the hospital with a left flank stab wound that necessitated abdominal exploration to stem the bleeding. Postoperative investigation for fever of unknown origin included ultrasonography, CT and MRI, which demonstrated two masses in the left upper quadrant, but also two lesions that were apparently in the right lobe of the liver. A radionuclide investigation was performed with liver hemangioma as the provisional diagnosis.

For many years, consensus committees and other evangelists have ignored or misquoted findings unsupportive of the idea that dietary therapy can reduce risk for coronary disease [1]. I wish to correct one of LaRosa's arguments, one which “most dramatically” argues for this idea, to use his own words [2]. The increased coronary risk of Japanese migrants was not associated with dietary fat intake or blood cholesterol level but with cultural factors.

Daily Mortality and Air Pollution in Santa Clara County, California: 1989-1996
Authors: David Fairley
Journal: Environmental Health Perspectives (1999)

Since the last revision of the national particulate standards, there has been a profusion of epidemiologic research showing associations between particulates and health effects--mortality in particular. Supported by this research, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency promulgated a national standard for particulate matter [less than/equal to] 2.5 microm in aerodynamic diameter (PM(2.5)). Nevertheless, the San Francisco Bay Area of California may meet this new standard. This study investigates the relationship between daily mortality and air pollution in Santa Clara County (a Bay Area county) using techniques similar to those utilized in earlier epidemiologic studies. Statistically significant associations persist in the early 1990s, when the Bay Area met national air pollution standards for every criteria pollutant. Of the various pollutants, the strongest associations occur with particulates, especially ammonium nitrate and PM(2.5). The continuing presence of associations between mortality and air pollutants calls into question the adequacy of national standards for protecting public health.

Voice analysis test for detection of behavior pattern. Responses of normal men and coronary patients
Authors: M. Friedman
Journal: JAMA (1969)

Subjects exhibiting a behavior pattern (type A) previously found to be associated with a high prevalence and incidence rate of clinical coronary heart disease (CHD) and patients suffering from clinical coronary heart disease were subjected to a specially designed "voice analysis" test. Approximately 84% of the type A subjects and 76% of the patients with CHD responded to this test in a manner that allowed their differentiation from well subjects exhibiting a behavior pattern (type B) previously found to be associated with a low prevalence and incidence rate of CHD.
