Since the mid 1990s, several powerful therapies (combinations of antiretroviral drugs) have helped increase length of life in many people with HIV infection. The focus of care for patients with HIV infection has shifted to managing long-term complications and complex drug regimens and their side effects.Recently, doctors have noted that some patients with HIV infection have a problem with the bone in their hip, in which part of the bone dies (osteonecrosis of the hip). The condition can become painful ...

THE STATISTIC EVIDENCES OF THE VALUE OF VACCINATION TO THE HUMAN RACE, PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE.
Authors: EUGENE FOSTER
Journal: JAMA (1896)

"Nothing however beneficent can escape the criticism of the times in which we live. The criticism of vaccination, often passionate and violent, related chiefly to points which, however interesting they may be, leave the main question unaffected. We may speculate about the possibility of the potency of vaccine being exhausted in the human family; we may be surprised to find that people with good vaccine scars sometimes have smallpox; we may dispute as much as we please about the average period when re-vaccination may be considered a prudent safeguard; but after all we find that we rest in a security against the horrid pestilence of smallpox unknown to former generations."—Dr. George Derby. <h3>Mr. President and Gentlemen:</h3> —By invitation of your committee on the celebration of the anniversary of the discovery of vaccination, I appear before you this afternoon. Your greatly beloved and renowned Nestor, Dr. Davis, has most ably and
Future Directions and Research Needs
Authors: William H. Farland
Journal: Environmental Health Perspectives (1991)

In this paper, three perspectives for indoor air issues are considered: a) air inside of our homes and offices is a major component of our overall living environment and has potentially great impact on public health; b) there are important scientific questions raised specifically to indoor air that will require skills and expertise to develop and interpret research and data collection efforts; and c) from a risk assessor's point of view, the types and quality of scientific information is critical to the process of health risk assessment to risk managers to make the best decisions regarding environmental risks from indoor air. The primary focus of this presentation is to highlight suggested future directions and needs of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency that formed the core of a report to Congress on assessment and control of indoor air pollution. The five major areas that constitute the current EPA indoor air research strategy are monitoring/building studies; health effects; source characterization/mitigation; health impact/risk assessment; and program management/technology transfer. Additionally, major trends and research needs are discussed, including greater emphasis on noncancer effects and multiple pollutants at low levels and the need for more sensitive measures for detecting adverse health effects to more effectively characterize chemically sensitive individuals and population subgroups.
Life-threatening ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation induced by painless myocardial ischemia during exercise testing
Authors: R. A. Hong
Journal: JAMA (1987)

The clinical importance of myocardial ischemia without associated symptoms in patients with atherosclerotic coronary disease has not been clarified. We present three patients in whom painless cardiac ischemia was associated with the induction of cardiac arrest and/or ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation. In the two surviving patients, programmed ventricular stimulation did not induce ventricular arrhythmias. In one patient, successful coronary bypass surgery resulted in the elimination of exercise-induced painless myocardial ischemia and associated ventricular fibrillation; the other patient suffered a myocardial infarction after which ischemia and ventricular tachyarrhythmias could not be reproduced with exercise testing. We conclude that painless myocardial ischemia can cause life-threatening arrhythmias and is, therefore, a potentially lethal phenomenon. (<i>JAMA</i>1987;257:1937-1940)

Cardiac Catheterization
Authors: Laurence B. Ellis, Richard A. Bloomfield
Journal: New England Journal of Medicine (1950)

CARDIAC catheterization is now a recognized and accepted procedure and has proved its great value both as a research tool in cardiovascular physiology and as a diagnostic aid in certain types of heart disease, particularly those of congenital etiology. This report discusses the technical aspects of the procedure and describes some of the accomplishments in diagnosis and research. No attempt will be made to summarize the literature completely.Catheterization of the right side of the heart was first carried out in man by Forssmann,1 who, in 1929, performed the maneuver on himself. A year later Klein2 reported 11 successful cardiac . . .
INGUINAL HERNIA
Authors: Walter M. Brickner
Journal: JAMA (1927)

<h3>To the Editor:</h3> —In his article on "Fundamental Principles Underlying the Operative Cure of Inguinal Hernia" (The Journal, February 19), Dr. M. G. Seelig, speaking of the Andrews procedure of suturing the mesial edge of the cut aponeurosis of the external oblique muscle to Poupart's ligament, said: "I believe that in the literature there has been only one formal protest against the procedure. W. M. Brickner (<i>Am. J. Surg</i>.<b>40</b>:73 [March] 1926) called attention to the fact that normally the external oblique aponeurosis is attached to Poupart's ligament, and that therefore the Andrews procedure merely restores structures to the status in which they were before the inguinal canal was exposed by incision of the external oblique aponeurosis. This objection is not easily or convincingly answered." I would not like to be understood to "protest against" this procedure. What I wrote was: "To sew the cut edge of the externus

mentally ill.It would also support their care in the com- munity either in hostels or in the home provided the family burden and the adverse effects on the healthy children are not too great.Nevertheless, the report acknowledges that "it is facile to presume that the long-stay hospitals would not be needed and that hostels would take over their work."Meanwhile it urges that "more resources are given to existing hospitals for the subnormal which are gravely short of money and seriously understaffed."Of equal importance is the problem of the care of the aged with psychiatric disabilities, whose number continues to rise.4The committee emphasizes the importance of pro- phylactic measures to prevent the evils of isolation, mental and physical deterioration, and malnutrition by the provision in the community of clubs, home-help and meals-on-wheels services, and workshops in order that the vital principle of the "need to be needed" is maintained.When hospital care is deemed essential it is stressed that a psychogeriatric assess- ment unit is essential, staffed by geriatricians and psychi- atrists with a special interest in geriatrics.The committee insists that in the planning of geriatric services, long over- due, account must be taken "of the very large numbers in- volved who are at present inappropriately accommodated in psychiatric hospitals."Though with commendable modesty the authors of this report make no claim for comprehensiveness, it is in the event remarkably comprehensive.It ranges widely over virtually the whole spectrum of psychiatric problems, including services for children, the urgent need for some sort of liaison with the Prison Department, and the provision of security where this is required.It discusses ably the func- tion of the general practitioner, the nursing service, the social worker, and last but by no means least the invaluable assistance that can be rendered by voluntary organizations.The new legislation is scheduled to take effect in April 1974- not very long ahead.Sir Keith Joseph will certainly wish to digest all the findings in this admirable report, but in par- ticular he should pay urgent attention to the run-down and closure of mental hospitals while "community care" remains a near-myth.In so doing he would have the support of professional opinion.
Calcified soft-tissue mass in the medial aspect of the thigh
Authors: T. E. Shea
Journal: JAMA (1967)

Dr. Kook Sang Oh: This is the case of a 26-year-old sales manager who had enjoyed excellent health. Three years prior to admission he received a severe blow to the medial aspect of his left thigh from an opponent's foot during a touch football game. One year prior to admission he noted a swelling in the same area which was persistent and occasionally tender. A physician was consulted and conservative treatment to relieve the swelling was started but without success. Roentgenograms of the left thigh (Figure) were then obtained. A mass was locally resected from the thigh, and the patient was referred to this hospital for further management. Physical examination was not remarkable except for small, nontender, palpable nodes in the groin and a fresh transverse scar with a drain site on the medial aspect of the left thigh. Laboratory data were within normal limits. <h3>Discussion</h3> Dr. Laurence L. Robbins
Disclosure of condom breakage to sexual partners
Authors: D. L. Warner
Journal: JAMA (1997)

<h3>To the Editor.</h3> —With approximately 3 million unintended pregnancies<sup>1</sup>and 12 million cases of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs),including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, occurring among Americans each year,<sup>2</sup>latex condom use remains an important component of public health prevention strategies. When used consistently and correctly,<sup>3</sup>condoms are effective for preventing pregnancy and the transmission of STDs and HIV infection. However, condoms occasionally break during intercourse,<sup>4</sup>and little research exists on men's disclosure of condom breakage to female sex partners.<sup>5</sup>We report on men who did not inform their female partners about condom breakage and discuss public health implications of this behavior. During 1993 and 1994, we recruited a sample of male students through advertisements about a research study on condoms posted on the campuses of 2 Georgia universities. Men participated in a standardized interview about their use of condoms and experiences with condom breakage during

Bleeding Peptic Ulcer
Authors: J. N. Ward-McQuaid
Journal: BMJ (1966)

Three cases of severe and irreversible alopecia occurring in patients with common variable immunodeficiency are described. In all three cases, hair loss developed after the diagnosis of immune deficiency; one of the patients also had extensive vitiligo. A fourth patient had vitiligo in the absence of alopecia. No change in the alopecia or vitiligo was noted in any patient as a result of immunoglobulin replacement therapy.
Evaluation in continuing medical education
Authors: S. Abrahamson
Journal: JAMA (1968)

So many words have been written and so many more have been uttered on this topic that an enormous difficulty is presented to anyone invited to prepare a paper. Evaluation has been defined, described, decried, and defended. The lack of evaluation has been bemoaned, bewailed, and bemused. The need for evaluation has been expressed, exhorted, and extolled. Approaches to evaluation have been proposed, proclaimed, and provided. All in all, one wonders how so much effort can have brought about so little effect. Perhaps that last statement is too harsh; in our interest in the well-turned phrase, we often tend to exaggerate. Indeed, there is every indication that the need for evaluation is now widely accepted. There is no question that evaluative approaches and techniques have become more sophisticated over recent years. There is no question that there is a greater understanding of evaluation as a concept and a process. There
A randomized controlled trial of expressive writing for patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC).

Journal: Journal of Clinical Oncology (2012)

9029 Background: Most previous research examining the efficacy of brief expressive writing interventions have used small sample sizes and followed people for no more than 3 months. We conducted a large randomized trial to examine an expressive writing intervention for patients with renal cell carcinoma and followed them for 10 months after the end of the writing sessions. Methods: Two hundred patients with RCC were randomly assigned to either write their deepest thoughts and feelings about their cancer (EW) or to write about neutral topics (NW) on four separate occasions over 10 days for a maximum of 20 minutes at each writing session. Patients completed the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory (MDASI), Brief Fatigue Inventory, SF-36, IES, CES-D, and PSQI at baseline and then again 1, 4, and 10 months after the writing sessions. Results: The mean age of the participants was 58 (range 34-82 years), 41% were women, and staging data were 39% stage I, 15% stage II, 19% stage III, and 27% stage IV. The groups were well balanced on all demographic and medical characteristics. Examination of group differences 1 month after the writing sessions, controlling for the respective baseline measure, revealed decreased IES scores for the EW group (intrusive thoughts: EW, 5.0 v NW, 7.2; p&lt;.02; avoidance behaviors: EW, 6.3 v NW, 8.7; p&lt;.07). By 4 months after the intervention, the EW group reported higher levels of SF-36 Social Functioning scores (EW: 52.6 v NW: 49.7; p&lt;.04). At the 10 month time point, the EW group reported fewer cancer-related symptoms (EW: 20.8 v NW: 30.8; p&lt;.04), higher levels of SF-36 Role Physical scores (EW: 69.6 v NW: 54.0; p&lt;.02), and fewer sleep disturbances (subscale of the PSQI; EW: 1.4 v NW: 1.6; p&lt;.05). Means for the other SF-36 subscales at 10 months were in the expected, but did not reach statistical significance. There were no group differences for CES-D or fatigue scores at any time point. Mediation analyses revealed that IES scores at 1 month mediated the effects of EW on cancer-related symptoms (F= 1.85, p&lt;.06) at the 10 month follow up. Conclusions: These findings indicate expressive writing leads to short-term reduction in intrusive thoughts about the cancer experience and results in long-term improvement in aspects of quality of life.
