Although pentamidine might be effective againstB. microti, the evidence provided is not very convincing because parasitemia rates for the several days before administration of pentamidine were either not obtained or not reported. Thus, a decreasing trend in parasitemia may already have begun before drug administration. Our experience with an asplenic patient, who had a parasitemia rate 10 times greater than that reported for the patients of Francioli and associates, illustrates that this trend does occur (2).

Medical liability reform. A conceptual framework
Authors: K. S. Abraham
Journal: JAMA (1988)

IN THE past decade, proposals for the reform of medical liability law have proliferated. These proposals have in some cases merged with the movement for the general reform of tort law generated by the liability insurance crisis that struck broad areas of business and professional enterprise during 1985 and 1986. The result has been the development of a wide variety of approaches to liability reform. This is, therefore, a pivotal time in the history of medical liability reform; the debate over medical liability has now evolved beyond a focus on litigation technicalities and into a fundamental reexamination of basic options. Different medical liability reforms, of course, would have different implications for a broad range of public policy considerations: health care providers' incentives, the quality of care provided, whether to rely more or less on governmental regulation of health care, systems of medical discipline, and the compensation of patients. For example,
MENTAL FATIGUE.
Authors: EDWARD THORNDIKE
Journal: JAMA (1900)

The science of psychology has lately been coming into closer relationship with the science of medicine, and much may be expected from this connection. Psychology, the science of mental phenomena, ought surely to contribute something to medicine, which cares for the preservation and restoration of health to both body and mind. But up till recently the contributions were most frequently the other way around. The greater part of our knowledge of abnormal states of mind has been the gift of medical science to psychology. However, as the latter grows and solves some of her own peculiar problems, she will doubtless turn and try to help medicine, one of her nearest neighbors. As a sign perhaps, of such an attempt, I wish to present the results of a psychologic study of mental fatigue. The word fatigue may mean either a fact or a feeling. By the fact of fatigue one means

CUTANEOUS CANDIDIASIS
Authors: Herschel S. Zackheim
Journal: JAMA (1968)

Some 20 years or so ago it was not uncommon to hear lectures in medical school concerning the so-called thymicolymphatic constitution, a condition which was thought to be the cause of sudden illness or death particularly in children. This concept fell into disrepute, and for a long time thereafter there was little interest in the thymus, which was regarded as a lymphoid structure of doubtful significance, known to involute in man after adolescence. In recent years, however, there has been a renewed interest in this organ, stimulated to a large degree by a growing number of case reports associating various disease states with thymic abnormalities. Current concepts concerning the function of the thymus,<sup>1</sup>based to a large degree on work with laboratory animals, include the following: The thymus appears to be a key organ in the development and function of the lymphoid system and, therefore, in the immunological competence

Genital herpes. Some clinical and laboratory observations
Authors: T. W. Chang
Journal: JAMA (1974)

In comparison to primary syphilis, genital herpes was seen seven times more frequently at the outpatient clinics of the New England Medical Center Hospitals. One hundred one cases were verified by virus isolation within a period of 18 months. The incubation period of initial episode of the disease varied from 3 to 14 days, with an average of five days. It was as short as 12 hours in recurrent cases. Twenty-one isolates were typed by immunofluorescent method. Eleven were type 1; ten were type 2. The unusual frequency of genital herpes due to type 1 virus is probably related to the prevalence of orogenital sex play. The overall incidence of genital herpes among all cases seen in the Skin Clinic during 1971 and 1972 was 0.8%. (<i>JAMA</i>229:544-545, 1974)

Potentiation of Hepatic and Renal Toxicity of Various Compounds by Prior Exposure to Polybrominated Biphenyls
Authors: W. M. Kluwe, K. M. McCormack, J. B. Hook
Journal: Environmental Health Perspectives (1978)

Mice ingesting a standard rodent diet supplemented with polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) were more susceptible to chlorinated hydrocarbon solvent-induced renal and hepatic damage, as well as the lethal effects of CHCl3 and CCl4, than were mice consuming control diet. As little as 0.025 ml/kg CHCl3 caused a significant increase in serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and a significant decrease in renal cortical slices accumulation of p-aminohippurate (PAH) in PBB-pretreated but not control mice. SGOT and serum glutamic pyruvate transaminase (SGPT) were greater in PBB-pretreated mice than in control mice after 0.125 and 0.005 ml/kg CCl4, respectively. Renal cortical PAH accumulation was greatly reduced in PBB-pretreated but not control mice aftter 0.125 ml/kg CCl4. The solvent-induced decrease in PAH accumulation was also greater in PBB-pretreated mice than in control mice following administration of 1.0 ml/kg trichloroethylene (TRI) and 0.15 ml/kg 1,1,2-trichloroethane (TCE).
Brain death in three neurosurgical units.
Authors: B Jennett, J Gleave, P Wilson
Journal: BMJ (1981)

The validity of clinical criteria for diagnosing brain death has been investigated in three ways. A total of 447 published cases were reviewed. In three neurosurgical units (Cambridge, Glasgow, and Swansea) 609 patients diagnosed clinically as brain dead were studied; 326 had final cardiac asystole while still being ventilated, and ventilation was discontinued in the remainder. No patient recovered. The median time in hospital before the heart finally stopped was 3 1/2-4 1/2 days, with 30-40 hours on the ventilator. Analysis of prospective data from three countries on patients with severe head injuries showed that not one of 1003 survivors would ever have been suspected of being brain dead even in their worst state soon after injury. Recovery after supposed brain death has been alleged in patients who were thought to be brain dead but in fact were not and in cases where reflex movements in the limbs were mistaken for signs of life. The safeguards in diagnosing brain death include establishing irreversible structural brain damage, excluding the effects of drugs, and allowing enough time to elapse to establish the diagnosis beyond doubt. The studies reported here show that the clinical criteria used in the United Kingdom are reliable. There is no need for confirmatory tests such as an electroencephalogram provided that all the conditions for clinical diagnosis have been fulfilled and all the tests carried out.

The Physician Workforce and Financing of Graduate Medical Education
Journal: Annals of Internal Medicine (1998)

This paper addresses key issues concerning the physician workforce and the financing of graduate medical education. The American College of Physicians recommends the establishment of a national advisory organization to develop a coherent and coordinated national policy on the health professions workforce. Given the increasing oversupply of physicians, the College recommends that no new medical schools be created, that total enrollment in U.S. medical schools not increase, and that the number of international medical graduates entering residency training in the United States be restricted. All health care payers should share the cost of graduate medical education, funding should be predictable and stable, and funding should include ambulatory training sites. The number of first-year residents should be linked more closely to the annual number of medical graduates in the United States, and Medicare payments for medical education and training should be made only to the health maintenance organizations that actually incur these costs. The College advises that hospitals providing care primarily to underserved populations and indigent persons need stable funding with which to pay for personnel to replace residents. The College calls for research to evaluate the feasibility of establishing a voucher system, in which each resident would receive payment authorization certificates to fund training at accredited residency sites. Additional research is also recommended to distinguish the individual costs involved in graduate medical education from other costs associated with graduate medical education and the costs of care of indigent persons.
