Maharishi Ayur-Veda: modern insights into ancient medicine
Authors: H. M. Sharma
Journal: JAMA (1991)

AYUR-VEDA is the oldest existing medical system, having its heritage in ancient India. It is recognized by the World Health Organization and is still widely practiced.<sup>1</sup>The All India Ayur-Veda Congress (representing Ayurvedic physicians) has a membership of over 300 000, and 108 Ayurvedic colleges in India grant a degree after a 5-year program. Yet, until recently, Ayur-Veda has been virtually unknown in the West. Current interest in disease prevention and health promotion has led to its investigation by a growing number of Western physicians who are finding it to add valuable knowledge that is complementary to modern allopathic medicine. The word<i>Ayur-Veda</i>comes from two Sanskrit roots:<i>Ayus</i>, meaning life or life span, and<i>Veda</i>, meaning knowledge or science.<i>Ayur-Veda</i>is therefore translated as "the science of life," which emphasizes its orientation toward prevention. The major textbooks of Ayur-Veda, the<i>Charaka Samhita</i><sup>2</sup>and Sushruta Samhita,<sup>3</sup>cover

The Academic Medical Center and the health of the public

Journal: JAMA (1992)

<h3>In Reply.</h3> —Dr Lamb shares our enthusiasm for physical diagnosis and offers comments about other potentially useful signs for diagnosing ascites. He observes that an everted umbilicus is almost always due to ascites and advocates "Myers maneuver" for detecting a fluid wave, suggesting that it is easier to perform and as accurate as the traditional method for eliciting a fluid wave. For detecting small amounts of fluid, he suggests we use a "percussion variant" of the puddle sign. We suspect that other readers have favorite physical examination techniques that they believe useful for detecting ascites. Indeed, these techniques may improve on our existing repertoire of physical diagnosis maneuvers. However, we found no data on these tests in the literature, and unless Lamb has found something we missed, their accuracy is unknown. To separate the wheat from the chaff, we must rigorously test these findings so that the clinician will know
Normal and pathological grief
Authors: J. T. Brown
Journal: JAMA (1983)

Physicians are often called on to care for patients and members of patients' families during the period of bereavement. The grief process serves a psychologically adaptive function and usually progresses in a predictable manner. Under certain unusual circumstances, however, the grieving process may become pathologically delayed or distorted, with serious consequences for the survivor's emotional and physical health. There are three phases of the normal grief process and particular guidelines for physician recognition and management of pathological grief reactions. (<i>JAMA</i>1983;250:378-382)

Variability of House Dust Mite Allergen Exposure in Dwellings
Authors: Thomas Hirsch, Eberhard Kuhlisch, Wolfgang Soldan, Wolfgang Leupold
Journal: Environmental Health Perspectives (1998)

The variability of repeated house dust mite (HDM) allergen determinations at the same site within 3-24 months was evaluated on previously collected samples. Between two and four repeated measurements of Der p 1, a major allergen of Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus and Der f 1, a major allergen of D. farinae, on 46 carpets and 31 mattresses were analyzed. In 90% of carpets and mattresses, HDM allergen concentrations were clinically relevant (at least one measurement >0.1 microg Der p 1 + Der f 1/g dust). The coefficients of variation (CVs) for allergen concentrations in repeated samples over time (55.3-82.0% for the two allergens in beds and carpets) were clearly greater than the CVs for multiple samples collected at the same time (4.0-32.6%). Determination of allergen mass per square meter of surface instead of concentration per gram of dust resulted in an even greater CV (72.3-86.7%). The 95% range of expected values was about 10-fold above and below the result of a single determination. We conclude that single determinations of HDM allergen in dust give very limited information about long-term exposure of an individual to the allergen. Repeated measurements are recommended. Studies of factors that affect HDM allergen exposure must be planned with appropriate sample sizes.

Community Medicine
Authors: Robert L. Berg
Journal: JAMA (1973)

<h3>To the Editor.—</h3> We were thoroughly dismayed by the editorial inThe Journal(<b>224:</b>522, 1973), "Community Medicine: A Concept in Search of Definition," not only because it added to the existing widely prevalent confusion regarding the definition of community medicine,<sup>1,2</sup>but also because it reached conclusions that even those misconceptions could not justify. We believe that<i>community medicine</i>is an appropriate title for a department that professes the specific academic disciplines used in disease prevention and control. It is true that the application of our basic disciplines is so broad that our departments have suffered from excessive titular flux. Twenty years ago, the dominant title was<i>preventive medicine</i>and<i>public health. Social medicine</i>also enjoyed brief popularity and more recently<i>community health</i>has been chosen as the title for a few new departments. This nosologic ingenuity describes differences in focus of application of our disciplines—a healthy characteristic. There

Journal: PLoS Medicine (2010)

Citing two articles published recently in PLoS Medicine that refer to the H1N1 influenza and SARs epidemics, the Editorial published this month highlights the problem of how to share information most effectively in the wake of a rapidly spreading disease, and questions whether journal publishing is an efficient enough mechanism for information sharing during these periods. The editors discuss the potential of the internet for improving the dissemination of information and whether the flow of information in the face of a crisis is truly enabled by publication in medical journals (even online journals) or whether we need new avenues for rapid data sharing.

Immunologic Aspects of Neurological and Neuromuscular Diseases
Authors: Burton Zweiman
Journal: JAMA (1992)

THE NERVOUS system traditionally has been considered an "immunologically privileged" site that is shielded by functional or anatomic barriers from systemic immune responses.<sup>1</sup>However, several lines of experimental and clinical evidence suggest that immune responses can affect and even take place within the nervous system. The nature of the antigen-presenting cells in the central nervous system (CNS) is controversial. Fontana et al<sup>2</sup>reported that astrocytes can present antigen-to-antigen reactive T cells in culture in a major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-restricted fashion. Furthermore, the astrocyte can be induced to express MHC class II antigens after exposure to interferon gamma or viruses. However, others have not been able to reproduce all of these findings and have marshaled evidence for microglia of bone marrow origin as the important antigen-presenting cells in the CNS. There also is increasing interest in the role of various cytokines in the pathogenesis of neurological diseases. Astrocytes secrete

e15521 Background: Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection is one of the most common infections worldwide and is a risk factor for gastric cancer (GC) development. This study was conducted to determinate the prevalence rate of HP as well as presence of vacA and cagA in gastric cancer samples from Peruvian patients. Methods: GC samples were prospectively collected from patients who went to surgery between April 2015 and November 2016. Three types of gastric samples were obtained from each patient: tumoral area (T), proximal healthy (P) and distal healthy tissue (D) samples. HP status through H&amp;E was analyzed by a pathologist. DNA was extracted from tissue, and detection of colonization (ureA and hspA) and virulence genes (vacA and cagA) of HP was performed through quantitative PCR (qPCR). Results: A total of 183 patients were studied with a mean age of 64 years and 51.9% were men. 52.2% had a primary from antrum, 47.8% was HG 3 and 60% were diffuse. Presence of HP through H&amp;E was found in 58.4% (n=107/183). Positive HP cases through qPCR were determinate with positivity of at least one ureA/hspA gene and was found in 89.6% (n=164/183). HP detection rate and its concentration were higher in D (ureA: 62.8%, n=115, [703.58±245.47pg]; hspA: 73.8%, n=135, [42.77±10.17pg]) than P (ureA: 59.0%, n=108, [539.69±121.32pg]; hspA: 71.0%, n=130, [31.90±8.64pg]) and T (ureA: 49.7%, n=91, [296.32±164.98pg]; hspA: 70.5%, n=129, [4.6±1.33pg]) (p&lt;.001). Antrum location was associated to higher level of hspA expression (p=0.047). Neither histology (p=0.45) nor HG (p=0.2) was associated to level of hspA expression. qPCR detected HP in 75% (n=57/76) of cases without evidence of HP by pathology evaluation (H&amp;E) (ICC: 0.77 vs 0.58). cagA virulence gene was detected in 95.8% (n=159/166) while vacAm allele in 85.5% (n=142/166) and vacAs allele in 96.8% (n=160/166). vacA+cagA- combination was found in 0.6% (n=1/166), vacA+cagA+ cases in 95.8% (n=159/166) and vacA-cagA- cases in 3.6% (n=3/166). Conclusions: Our results show a significant presence of HP in Peruvian gastric cancer patients and combination of vacA+/-cagA+/- virulence genes had particular patterns.
Blood donation by the elderly. Clinical and policy considerations
Authors: J. Pindyck
Journal: JAMA (1987)

At present, healthy potential blood donors older than the age of 66 years often leave the donor pool for reasons of age alone, despite the fact that this demographic group is growing, is a potentially willing source of blood products, and constitutes the cohort with highest per capita use of blood and its derivatives. There is no clinical or physiological rationale for this. We performed a controlled study to measure the feasibility and safety of blood donation by healthy elderly donors aged 66 years and older, compared with a younger cohort aged 55 to 65 years of age. A study group of prior donors aged 66 years and older and a control group of prior donors between the ages of 50 and 65 were sent letters inviting them to donate blood. The volume donated did not differ between the two groups. In the older group, there were eight immediate reactions, seven mild and one moderate. The control population experienced seven immediate reactions, six mild and one severe. We conclude that it is both clinically feasible and efficient to recruit healthy prior donors older than the age of 66 years for blood donation. As a group, this population is potentially able to donate large volumes of blood and do so without any difference in immediate or short-term reactions. Further study of hemodynamic variables as more objective markers of safety is needed. (<i>JAMA</i>1987;257:1186-1188)
