Journal: Circulation (2015)

We updated our regional database for KD patients from 2011 to 2014 to investigate differences in epidemiological, clinical and outcome data between 2011-2014 pts and those diagnosed between 2000-2010 in Emilia Romagna. We had 77 KD patients during last 4 years ( vs 81 pts during 2000-2010), mean age at diagnosis 40 months+- 36,4 (vs 31,2 mths ), 10% were younger than 6 months at diagnosis (vs 14%), male were 60 % (vs 59%). Seasonality was as follows: spring 27 (% vs 33%), winter 25% (vs 28%), autumn 25% (vs 26%), summer 23% (vs 14%). Clinical presentation was complete in 69 % (vs vs 74%), incomplete in 30% (vs 26%), atipical 1 % (vs 0%). IVIG responder were 77% (vs 67%), non responders 16 % (vs 12%), late treatment 2 % (vs 12% P 0.002), not treated with IVIG 5 % (vs 9%). 18/77 pts ( vs 7 of 2000-2010,P 0.004 ) had alteration of ALT ( v&gt; 45 U/) and AST ( v &gt; 55 U/l) and among those with transminases alteration 8 ( vs 4 pts) had cholestasis. Coronary arteries anomalies (CAA) were present in 15% ( 9 % ectasia and 6% (vs 2 %) aneurysms ( mean age 12,6 months, 2 pts non responders to standard therapy, 1 pts with late treatment, 1 pts not treated, and 1 pts well treated. The 2 patients who developed giant aneurysms were both non responder to standard therapy, 1 pts had associated cholestasis. Conclusion: during the last four years we observed an higher number of diagnosis of KD than 2000-2010; incomplete and atipical cases, and non-responder pts were more frequent but we noted a decreased of pts not treated or delayed treated; more cases of cholestasis associated to KD and an increased number of patients with aneurysms.

Peritoneal dialysis for refractory congestive heart failure
Authors: L. U. Mailloux
Journal: JAMA (1967)

Peritoneal dialysis with hypertonic dextrose dialyzing solutions was used to dehydrate 15 patients in refractory congestive heart failure. The clinical improvement which was achieved following this procedure could be related largely to the degree of excess fluid removal and visceral decongestion. In these 15 patients there was an average weight loss of 5.2 kg (11.5 lb) and an average excess fluid removal of 7,285 cc. Circulation times and venous pressures fell to 50% of predialysis values, and plasma volumes were reduced in each instance. Of five patients studied, there was only one who showed a substantial increase in cardiac output; the other four patients showed no significant change. Twelve of 15 patients had restored diuretic responsiveness postdialysis. Serum electrolyte values returned toward normal in all patients studied. We have found peritoneal dialysis to be a safe, effective, and valuable ancillary tool in the management of patients with refractory congestive heart failure.
Adolescent Suicide
Authors: Martin R. Lipp
Journal: JAMA (1975)

This posthumous translation of a 1970 French book engagingly presents the perspective of Dr. Haim on adolescent suicide. Brash, nihilistic, scrupulously honest with regard to his own limitations and that of the whole field of suicide, the author accomplishes his task with a charm that only a genial scholar can achieve. There are four major sections. The first reviews suicide statistics, which the author finds distressingly inaccurate: "Everyone knows they are no more than a partial reflection of an unknown reality." That we continue to use the official figures, quoting them in papers and meetings as if they were valid "may not be without significance." The second section uses this observation as a starting point for exploring the attitude of the adult and society to adolescent suicide. The adult reacts with denial, self-interest and fear; and these features stand as obstacles to greater knowledge about the subject. Next, the author
Occupational rhinitis and bronchial asthma due to morphine: evidence from inhalational and nasal challenges
Authors: S. Uliński, C. Pafczyński, P. Görski
Journal: Allergy (1996)

A case of occupational bronchial asthma due to morphine in a nonatopic 46-year-old woman is presented. The following diagnostic tests were used: a workplace trial with bronchodilator and placebo, and single-blind, placebo-controlled nasal and bronchial challenge with 0.5% morphine HCl. For the nasal challenge, four asthmatic patients were selected as a control group. The nasal washings were done before and 30 min, 3 h, 24 h, and 48 h after all challenges. In the nasal lavage fluid, the total numbers of eosinophils, neutrophils, basophils, and mast cells were counted, and, after the nasal challenge, total protein and albumin levels were measured. During the workplace trial, the PEF variability ratio increased from 5% to 38%. After the challenges, a decrease in the spirometric parameters (VC and FEV1) of about 30–40% was observed, with minimums at 24 and 48 h. An influx of granulocytes with an increase in the relative number of eosinophils and basophils from 3 h until 48 h after the challenge was observed in the nasal lavage fluid. The protein level in the nasal lavage fluid increased from 190 to 1275 μg/ml 24 h after the challenge with an increase of relative albumin level from 24% to 40% at 24 h. In the control group, no changes in relative number of basophils and eosinophils and albumin/total protein ratio in the nasal lavage fluid or in the spirometric parameters were observed after the challenge.
Hazards of subclavian vein cannulation for central venous pressure monitoring
Authors: M. Schapira
Journal: JAMA (1967)

In four cases, serious complications were encountered after the insertion of a central venous catheter into the subclavian veins. Pneumothorax developed in three patients and one had a hemothorax. Two patients who had massive pneumothorax died, the other two recovered. On the basis of the experience obtained by others and ourselves with the measurements of central venous pressure through catheters inserted via the subclavian vein, the abandonment of this technique has been recommended.
The non-neuronal and nonmuscular effects of botulinum toxin: a graceful opportunity for a deadly molecule to treat a disease in the skin and beyond
Authors: S.A. Grando, C.B. Zachary
Journal: British Journal of Dermatology (2018)

Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNT) are proteins produced by Clostridium botulinum bacteria. There are different subtypes of these toxins, named from A to G. The A, B, and E subtypes cause botulism in humans, which is a potentially fatal disease. However, recently types of BoNT have been developed into injectable treatments used to relax facial muscles and therefore reduce wrinkles (for which it is often known by the brand name ‘Botox’). In addition to the well‐known cosmetic effects, types A and B have been used as treatments in various medical conditions, mainly related to muscle relaxation. This review, from the U.S, outlines the many treatments that involve use of BoNT, including skin disorders such as hyperhidrosis, Hailey‐Hailey disease, Darier disease, inversed psoriasis and Raynaud phenomenon. Experimental studies have demonstrated that BoNT/A may be able to help wound healing, decrease thicknesses of certain scars, and even reduce acne.

Hot tub hygiene
Authors: C. M. Rinke
Journal: JAMA (1983)

The emergence of<i>Pseudomonas</i>urinary tract infections and pneumonia related to whirlpool bath exposure, as Salmen, Rose, and their respective colleagues report in this week'sJOURNAL(pp 2025 and 2027), is indeed new. What is not new is that the skin infection<i>Pseudomonas</i>folliculitis has been clearly linked to exposure to inadequately filtered and chlorinated hot bath waters. A flurry of epidemiologic studies in the late 1970s validated the observation that<i>Pseudomonas</i>folliculitis was contracted from contaminated whirlpools.<sup>1-3</sup>By 1981, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Atlanta, saw the public health hazard potential and established standards for maintenance of proper pH, chlorination, and filtration of hot tubs.<sup>4</sup> The whirlpool environment differs dramatically from the static water of swimming pools, explaining why the bacteriainduced folliculitis clinically surfaced with the popularity of spas. Water is mechanically agitated by circulation through pressurized jets. This turbulence, in addition to the increased concentration

Performance on a Virtual Reality Spatial Memory Navigation Task in Depressed Patients
Authors: Neda Gould
Journal: American Journal of Psychiatry (2007)

Objective: Findings on spatial memory in depression have been inconsistent. A navigation task based on virtual reality may provide a more sensitive and consistent measure of the hippocampal-related spatial memory deficits associated with depression. Method: Performance on a novel virtual reality navigation task and a traditional measure of spatial memory was assessed in 30 depressed patients (unipolar and bipolar) and 19 normal comparison subjects. Results: Depressed patients performed significantly worse than comparison subjects on the virtual reality task, as assessed by the number of locations found in the virtual town. Between-group differences were not detected on the traditional measure. The navigation task showed high test-retest reliability. Conclusions: Depressed patients performed worse than healthy subjects on a novel spatial memory task. Virtual reality navigation may provide a consistent, sensitive measure of cognitive deficits in patients with affective disorders, representing a mechanism to study a putative endophenotype for hippocampal function.

Evolution of Environmental Epidemiologic Risk Assessment
Authors: Henry A. Anderson
Journal: Environmental Health Perspectives (1985)

Epidemiology has historically played an important role in the recognition of causes for diseases affecting the health of the public. Initially, epidemiology was concerned with infectious diseases. Later it became involved in metabolic and dietary deficiency diseases. Most recently, epidemiology has addressed the question of the public health effects of chemicals from production facilities, accidental spills, and chemical waste disposal sites. Concurrent improvements in the sensitivity of chemical analyses have enabled the identification of chemicals arising from waste disposal sites in the soil, air, drinking water, and food supplies of neighboring residential areas, albeit usually at very low concentrations. This knowledge has created great concerns among the affected populations and their public health agencies. The responsibility for interpreting the potential severity of the health effects of these environmental contaminants has fallen to those scientists experienced in epidemiology. This has led to a subdiscipline, reactive epidemiology, which describes investigations focused on specific events, usually under emotion-laden circumstances, rather than scientific merit. The reactive epidemiologist is rigidly constrained as to the size, timing, and location of the study. There is a strong requirement for public communication skills. New data bases are needed including

Pain Scale
Authors: E. R. Fenimore Johnson
Journal: JAMA (1962)

<h3>To the Editor:</h3> One of the elements which prevents the practice of medicine from becoming a science is the absence of a precise language common to physicians and patients. It occurred to me that the reporting and charting of pain might become much more accurate if doctors and nurses had a "pain scale" and questioned the patients in accordance with it. As a result, I devised such a scale. Naturally name No. 5 would be recorded by observation, since a patient in agonizing pain cannot report the signs, although some of them could be reported after the pain terminated.

Programmed death-1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) is a coinhibitory molecule that negatively regulates multiple tolerance checkpoints. In the NOD mouse model, PD-L1 regulates the development of diabetes. PD-L1 has two binding partners, programmed death-1 and B7-1, but the significance of the PD-L1:B7-1 interaction in regulating self-reactive T cell responses is not yet clear. To investigate this issue in NOD mice, we have compared the effects of two anti–PD-L1 Abs that have different blocking activities. Anti–PD-L1 mAb 10F.2H11 sterically and functionally blocks only PD-L1:B7-1 interactions, whereas anti–PD-L1 mAb 10F.9G2 blocks both PD-L1:B7-1 and PD-L1:programmed death-1 interactions. Both Abs had potent, yet distinct effects in accelerating diabetes in NOD mice: the single-blocker 10F.2H11 mAb was more effective at precipitating diabetes in older (13-wk-old) than in younger (6- to 7-wk-old) mice, whereas the dual-blocker 10F.9G2 mAb rapidly induced diabetes in NOD mice of both ages. Similarly, 10F.2H11 accelerated diabetes in recipients of T cells from diabetic, but not prediabetic mice, whereas 10F.9G2 was effective in both settings. Both anti–PD-L1 mAbs precipitated diabetes in adoptive transfer models of CD4<sup>+</sup> and CD8<sup>+</sup> T cell-driven diabetes. Taken together, these data demonstrate that the PD-L1:B7-1 pathway inhibits potentially pathogenic self-reactive effector CD4<sup>+</sup> and CD8<sup>+</sup> T cell responses in vivo, and suggest that the immunoinhibitory functions of this pathway may be particularly important during the later phases of diabetogenesis.

<h3>To the Editor:—</h3> I wish to take exception of Dr. Clendening's statements relative to vitamins inThe Journal, September 20. As usual the major premise is taken as being correct. He has taken a group of individuals who are factory workers and have an income. However, how about those on relief, who get $4.80 a week with at least $2 going for lodging? For $1.80 you can't get much to eat. This is self evident. In addition I have seen in hospital experience where doctors would not be able to recognize a simple pellagraderm simply because they are not so minded, yet their statements are taken as being conclusive as not having seen such cases of vitamin deficiency. It must be remembered that the human body can stand a lot; vitamin deficiencies take experimentally in man from three to six months at the earliest to manifest themselves, and most often
