Potassium citrate and potassium gluconate versus potassium chloride. Experimental evaluation of relative intestinal toxicity
Authors: S. Oley
Journal: JAMA (1967)

IN LATE 1964 a sudden increase in the occurrence of circumferential ulcerating, stenosing lesions of the small bowel was noted both in Europe and the United States. Lindholmer et al<sup>1</sup>in Sweden and Baker et al<sup>2</sup>in this country first suggested the association of these lesions with enteri-coated thiazide diuretic potassium chloride preparations. Extensive experimental and clinical investigations<sup>3-6</sup>quickly identified enteric-coated potassium chloride as the responsible agent, and led to recognition of perforating areas of necrosis as a more severe form of the same lesion. The mechanism of damage is believed to be the release and absorption of high concentrations of potassium chloride over short segments of small bowel acting upon submucosal and mural veins to produce venous spasm or paralysis. The resultant venous stasis causes segmental hemorrhagic infarction of varying severity with ulceration and stenosis.<sup>7</sup> Recognition of this complication of enteric-coated potassium chloride ingestion has

necessary.My experience of local hospital teams is that it is difficult to be placed in a disaster environment when you are used to working in a gynaecological operating theatre.As Dr Nancekievill says, major accidents occur when least expected, and the best plan is to have available staff who are used to dealing with smaller incidents, are readily available and know the area, and can be on site through the ambulance control centre at very short notice.

Participation of High School Students in School Physical Education—United States, 1990
Journal: JAMA (1991)

Regular physical activity increases a person's ability to perform daily activities with greater vigor and may reduce the risk for specific health problems, including coronary heart disease (1), hypertension (2), noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (3), colon cancer (4), and depression (5), as well as lower all-cause death rates (6). In addition to extracurricular activities (e.g., sports and recreational organizations), high school physical education (PE) classes provide an opportunity to ensure a minimal, regular amount of desirable physical activity and help establish physical activity patterns that may extend into adulthood. This report examines the prevalence of self-reported enrollment, attendance, and participation in PE classes by students in grades 9-12.

<i>QuickStats:</i>Percentage of Physicians Who Have Electronic Access to Patient Health Information from Outside Their Medical Practice,*<sup>,</sup>† by State — United States, 2015
Journal: MMWR Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (2016)

In 2015, approximately half (50.3%) of the physicians in the United States had information from other providers outside of their practice electronically available at the point of care. There was wide variation by state, ranging from 34.6% in Idaho to 76.4% in South Dakota. Sixteen states and the District of Columbia were in the range with the lowest percentage of physicians with electronic access to more comprehensive patient information (34.6%-47.2%). Another 16 states were in the middle range (47.3%-57.0%). The 18 states with the highest percentage of physicians having such information electronically available were in the top range (57.1%- 76.4%).

A Use for Criminals.
Authors: None W. R.
Journal: JAMA (1901)

Palmerston, Ontario, Sept. 20, 1901. <h3>To the Editor:</h3> —President McKinley has been laid to rest and his assassin remains to be dealt with by the law as a nuisance to society. Before he is executed might he not be used for some useful purpose? Recent investigations in tuberculosis and cancer, two of the world's greatest scourges, have shown the necessity of the use of a human subject for further research. Already a physician has offered himself as a subject to test whether bovine tuberculosis is transmissible to man. The necessary experiments would not entail any great suffering on the criminal, and public opinion generally would be thoroughly in accord. I can see no objection to this use of desperate criminals. This practice was in vogue when Jenner introduced vaccination to the world, but in the nineteenth century seems to have fallen entirely into disuse.

Use of the Vaginal Smear as a Screening Test
Authors: Herbert L. Lombard, Margaret Middleton, Shields Warren, Olive Gates
Journal: New England Journal of Medicine (1948)

IN VIEW of the current interest in the vaginal smear and the optimistic hopes aroused by recent accounts of its usefulness, a preliminary report of a study being made by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health to evaluate the method may be helpful in clarifying its present status as a diagnostic test.The technic for the detection of uterine cancer by means of vaginal secretions was first described by Papanicolaou1 in 1928. In 1943 Papanicolaou and Traut2 presented evidence of the value of this method for demonstrating carcinoma both in patients before symptoms had appeared and in those in whom . . .
Abstract 631: High BMI in relation to low risk of lung cancer among never smokers
Authors: Hung N. Luu, Renwei Wang, Jennifer Adams-Haduch, Aizhen Jin, Woon-Puay Koh, Jian-Min Yuan
Journal: Cancer Research (2019)

Abstract Background. Lean smokers have increased oxidative DNA damage relative to their non-lean counterparts, indicating their heightened susceptibility to tobacco carcinogens-induced DNA damage. Epidemiological association between body mass index (BMI) and lung cancer is inconclusive. We have reported that BMI is a protective factor for smoking-related lung cancer and so did a recent meta-analysis. Knowledge about the association between BMI and non-smoking related lung cancer is limited as this is rare in Western population. We therefore sought to investigate the association between BMI and the risk of never-smoking related lung cancer in an on-going prospective cohort study, the Singapore Chinese Health Study. Methods. The current analysis used data from the Singapore Chinese Health Study, a cohort of 63,257 middle-aged and older Chinese men and women enrolled between 1993 and 1998. As of December 31, 2015, 2,001 study participants who were free of lung cancer at baseline developed lung cancer of whom 621 were never smokers. Cox proportional hazard regression method was used to calculate hazard ratio (HR) and the corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) for lung cancer associated with BMI in never-smokers. Results. Our results shown that increasing BMI was a protective factor for never-smoking related lung cancer and there is no interaction by gender. The respective HRs and 95% CIs were 0.66 (0.45-0.95) for overall and 0.60 (0.39-0.93) in female for those with BMI&amp;gt;27.5 compared to those with BMI&amp;lt;18.5. Even after eliminating those with exposure to any second-hand smoke in childhood or adulthood, the inverse association between BMI and the risk of never-smoking related lung cancer was stronger and significant (HR=0.31, 95% CI: 0.13-0.75; Ptrend=0.01). There was no difference by histologic subtypes (i.e., adenocarcinomas vs. squamous cell). Conclusion. There was an inverse association between BMI and the risk of never-smoking related lung cancer and there is no interaction by gender for this association. This association was also not different by histologic subtypes. Citation Format: Hung N. Luu, Renwei Wang, Jennifer Adams-Haduch, Aizhen Jin, Woon-Puay Koh, Jian-Min Yuan.

Public Health Service study of Reye's syndrome and medications. Report of the main study
Authors: E. S. Hurwitz
Journal: JAMA (1987)

Between January 1985 and May 1986, following completion of a pilot study, a main study concerning the possible association between Reye's syndrome and salicylates was conducted. Twenty-seven patients with stage II or deeper Reye's syndrome whose diagnoses were confirmed by an expert panel and who had appropriate antecedent illnesses (chickenpox, respiratory illness, or gastrointestinal illness) prior to the onset of Reye's syndrome were compared with 140 controls matched for age, race (black or not black), and type and timing of onset of antecedent illness. Controls were selected from the same hospital, emergency room, or school as case-patients or were identified by random-digit telephone dialing. As in the pilot study, a strong statistical association with ingestion of salicylates during the antecedent illness and prior to the onset of Reye's syndrome was observed (odds ratio, 40; lower 95% confidence limit, 5.8). Analysis of the independent risk of aspirin and nonaspirin salicylates revealed a significant association with aspirin (odds ratio, 26; lower 95% confidence limit, 6.4); the independent risk of nonaspirin salicylates could not be assessed because only two cases were not exposed to aspirin. Assessment of epidemiologic issues of concern, including case-control differences in the severity of the antecedent illness, did not explain the high odds ratios that were observed. The high percentage of patients with Reye's syndrome exposed to salicylates (≥90%) in this and prior studies suggests that, though the reported incidence of Reye's syndrome has declined in recent years, concomitant with a decline in salicylate use among children, a majority of Reye's syndrome cases may be attributable to salicylate use.

Weighing the Risk Factors in Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery-Reply
Authors: Thomas L. Higgins
Journal: JAMA (1992)

<h3>In Reply.</h3> —We thank Dr Kral for the opportunity to correct a misprint in the abstract of our recent article.<sup>1</sup>Increased risk was noted with body weight of 65 kg or less, as is correctly stated in the text and tables. The median weight of men in this study was 81 kg; that of females was 67 kg. Increased weight in either group was associated with decreased mortality, although one could argue for use of a different cutoff point by gender. We also agree with Kral that body mass index is preferable to body weight as a measure of size, but our initial data set did not include height. A multicenter validation of this score is planned, and any update of this model will include body mass index rather than body weight. Risk factors examined separately for men and women were similar except that body weight disappears in multivariate
