Psychiatric Ethics
Authors: Robert L. Sadoff
Journal: JAMA (1982)

An important book in psychiatry has been edited by two prominent psychiatrists, both of whom have written extensively in the field of medical ethics. Sidney Bloch, an English psychiatrist, is an expert on ethical and political psychiatry in Russia and on psychiatric terrorism. Paul Chodoff, an eminent Washington psychiatrist, has been concerned about international psychiatric practice and has included in this book of readings on psychiatric ethics a modification of his chapter entitled "Responsibility of the Psychiatrist to his Society," which earlier appeared in the collection on psychiatric ethics by the American College of Psychiatrists, entitled<i>Law and Ethics in the Practice of Psychiatry</i>. <i>Psychiatric Ethics</i>is a collection of 18 chapters written by an impressive group of international scholars and practitioners of psychiatry. The chapters include historical, philosophical, and social aspects as well as the ethics of psychotherapy, drug treatment, sex therapy, suicide, involuntary hospitalization, child psychiatry, forensic psychiatry,
Complexity underestimated?
Authors: Péter Érdi
Journal: Behavioral and Brain Sciences (2003)

Instead of commenting directly on Foundations of Language: Brain, Meaning, Grammar, Evolution, I provide some remarks from an interdisciplinary view. Language theory is examined from the perspective of the theory of complex systems. The gestural-vocal dichotomy, network theory, evolutionary mechanisms/algorithms, chaos theory, and constructive approach are briefly mentioned.
Psychosis after cannabis abuse
Authors: M W P Carney, L. Bacelle, B. Robinson
Journal: BMJ (1984)

The prognosis of the disease appears to be more accurately indicated by the intensity with which Helix pomatia lectin binds to primary breast cancer cells than by lymph node involvement.This binding reflects expression of N-acetyl-galactosaminyl glyco- conjugates in the cancer cells.There may be many different glycoconjugates but it would be interesting to know whether CA 50 contains N-acetyl-galactosamine.Professor Holmgren's group suggests that formation of new abnormal carbohydrate structures may be caused by activation of normally unexpressed glycosyltransferases.The observed changes, however, could be due to increased levels of normal glycosyltransferases.We raised an antibody to sialytransferase isolated from human milk, and found a tendency for primary breast cancer with a poor prognosis to show greater binding of this antibody than cancer with a good prognosis.This finding is also of interest because increased sialic acid concentrations have been implicated in increased metastatic potential.
Allergic reactions to corticosteroid therapy
Authors: J. A. Romankiewicz
Journal: JAMA (1976)

<h3>To the Editor.—</h3> Allergic reactions to corticosteroid therapy are a relatively rare phenomena. This communication describes a patient who experienced allergic skin reactions to two different corticosteroid preparations. <h3>Report of a Case.—</h3> A 55-year-old man with Waldenström macroglobulinemia was admitted to The New York Hospital because of a total body rash. The diagnosis of Waldenström macroglobulinemia had been made nine months prior to admission. Seven days prior to his first admission, elective therapy with chlorambucil and prednisone was initiated for treatment of the Waldenström macroglobulinemia. Within 24 hours, periorbital swelling and an erythematous, nonconfluent, papular, pruritic rash on the neck, upper chest, and upper back was noted. Chlorambucil and prednisone therapy was discontinued the following day. The rash subsequently became confluent, macular, scaly, and involved the total body with exception of the face. The patient was started on a regimen of hydroxyzine orally, 25 mg four times per day; dexamethasone,

Weight Loss in Overweight Adults 667Variation in genotype or diff erences in insulin secretion may explain why some individuals respond better than others to weight-loss diets.Gardner and colleagues randomized 609 overweight adults to receive a low-fat diet or a low-carbohydrate diet and found that neither genotype pattern nor baseline insulin secretion was associated with dietary eff ects on weight loss. CME jamanetwork.com/learning CARING FOR THE CRITICALLY ILL PATIENT Prophylaxis for Delirium in Critically Ill Adults 680In patients with critical illness, delirium is associated with prolonged duration of mechanical ventilation and increased mortality.A randomized trial by van den Boogaard and colleagues for the REDUCE Study Investigators enrolled 1789 critically ill adults in 21 intensive care units and found that haloperidol prescribed as prophylaxis for delirium did not improve survival.In an Editorial, Delaney and colleagues note that nonpharmacological interventions to prevent delirium, such as avoiding excessive sedation, benzodiazepines, and nocturnal noise; mobilizing patients; and maintaining a day-night schedule, remain the standard of care.
Clinical Lectures on Dislocations, Delivered at the Charing - Cross Hospital
Authors: H. Hancock
Journal: BMJ (1845)

Within the last few weeks we have had the following cases of dislocation of the shoulder into the axilla brought to the Hospital, and in all reduction was effected, without difficulty, by the following methods: CASES.Thomas Bamfather, having fallen down whilst intoxicated, injured his right shoulder, and was brought to the Hospital, where he was seen by Mr. Haulton, the House-Surgeon.Upon examination, this gentleman ascertained that the head of the humerus was thrown downwards anid inwards into the axilla, and proceeded to reduce it in the manner related below.You are aware that the benches upon which the patients sit in the surgery have very bigh backs, so that the thick top rail reaches rather higher than an ordinary man's sioulder.Mr. Haulton made the patient sit sideways on the form, with the injured shoulder towards the back, then taking the patient by the wrist he carried the arm over the top rail, and making extension upon the limb, the head of the bone retuirned to its situation.The patient had dislocated his shoulder on five previous occasions.This plan in no wise differs in its principle from the coulstaff, door, ladder, &c., and is liable to the same objections.In careful hands it may suc- ceed, as in the case before us, without any bad results to the patient; but if carlessly employed, if the top rail be not placed well up in the patient's axilla, if the extension be made violently and not quite in the proper direction, it is liable to cause unnecessary injury to tlhe soft parts, and even fracture of the bone, as described by Petit in some of the cases treated by the ladder.White's plan, the knee or heel in the axilla, is, in my opinion, decidedly preferable.Jane Wall, is subject to fits, and whilst in her eciulsions usually dislocates her right shoulder No. I8.April 30, 1845.downwards and inwards into the axilla.During

Dr. Charles Henry Ray. Illinois medical truant, journalist, and Lincoln king-maker
Authors: E. F. Pearson
Journal: JAMA (1974)

... with all my infidelity to medicine as a science, I retain my faith in the specific curative virtues of that article (quinine)... that and sulphur are the only certain remedies in the whole pharmacopoeia.<sup>1</sup> SO WROTE Dr. Charles Henry Ray to his wife, Jane, when he prescribed for his daughter Minnie's fever on March 23, 1854, thus expressing his disenchantment with medical practice of the times. Soon thereafter, this Illinois doctor forsook medicine for politics and journalism. He became editor of the<i>Chicago Tribune</i>just in time to boost Abraham Lincoln in his emergence on the national political scene. Destiny appeared to have attracted many doctors of strong character to Springfield, Ill, during the time that Abraham Lincoln lived there, and several of them had profound influence on Lincoln's health, his philosophy of life, his marriage, his statesmanship, and his political career.<sup>2</sup>Few individuals had more significant influence
Abstract P066: A Refined Carbohydrate Diet Attenuates Weight Loss in Insulin Resistant Individuals
Authors: Kristina A Harris, Sheila G West, Jack P Vanden Heuvel, Penny M Kris-Etherton
Journal: Circulation (2012)

Introduction: Weight loss is attenuated in individuals with insulin resistance (IR) who follow a traditional high-carbohydrate, calorie-restricted diet. However, the type of carbohydrate may modulate this response. We studied the effects of whole grains vs. refined grains on weight loss in individuals with increased waist circumference (M: &gt;102 cm, F: &gt;88 cm) and at least 1 other metabolic syndrome characteristic. Hypothesis: In a secondary analysis, we hypothesized that IR individuals (estimated by a triglyceride:high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio &gt; 3.5) would lose more weight on a hypocaloric diet with whole grains vs. refined grains. Methods: Overweight or obese (BMI 25–42 kg/m2) men and women (n=50) 35–55 yrs were randomized to a controlled-feeding diet with whole vs. refined grains for 12 weeks [6 weeks isocaloric then 6 weeks hypocaloric (∼500 kcal/d)]. Results: [All comparisons represented as IR mean±SEM vs. insulin sensitive (IS) mean±SEM, p-value)]. Compared to the IS group (n=29), the IR group (n=21) was predominately male (14 M/7 F vs. 11M/18F, p=0.04), weighed more (107.5±3.3 vs. 93.9±3.0 kg, p=0.005), and had increased waist circumference (113±2.2 vs. 106±1.5 cm, p=0.02). IR status did not affect overall percent body weight (%BW) lost over the course of the study (−4.0±0.4 vs. −4.5±0.3 %BW; p for interaction, time x IR status = 0.34). However, IR status did affect %BW lost when the type of carbohydrate was considered (p for interaction, time x IR status x diet = 0.04; Figure ). Post-hoc analysis revealed that within the refined grain group, IR participants lost less %BW than the IS participants (−4.14±0.4 vs. −5.84±0.5 %BW, adjusted p=0.04). On the whole grains diet, %BW lost was similar in the IS and IR groups. Conclusion: In conclusion, IR individuals lost less %BW than IS individuals on the hypocaloric refined grain diet. Limiting refined grains may improve the efficacy of traditional weight loss diets in IR individuals. Figure. %BW lost in IR and IS groups on refined grain diet, *p=0.04.
More than a diet
Authors: None The Lancet Planetary Health
Journal: The Lancet Planetary Health (2019)

In an Editorial published in The Lancet on Jan 16, 2019 was declared to be the year of nutrition. And indeed, this announcement was set to coincide with the launch of two Commissions investigating the links between food systems, human health, and the environment. The first, the EAT-Lancet Commission on healthy diets from sustainable food systems focused on identifying the challenges inherent to maintaining food systems that are both environmentally sustainable and beneficial for human health, whereas the second report, The Global Syndemic of Obesity, Undernutrition and Climate Change, was centred around human systems and their role in the interplay between climate, nutrition, and health.

Branched-chain amino acids for hepatic encephalopathy?
Authors: C Gluud
Journal: Hepatology (1991)

After careful analysis of the literature, Eriksson and Conn (1) concluded that branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) therapy does not appear to significantly affect the prognosis of patients with acute hepatic encephalopathy (HE).In a metanalysis of almost the same studies, Naylor et al. (2) reached the conclusion that BCAA significantly reduced the mortality rate.DerSimonian (3), in commenting on the discrepancy, pointed out some of the pitfalls in metanalysis when different data from the same trials are examined.However, it may be hard for physicians to tell from her analysis whether one shouId accept the conclusions of Eriksson and Conn or of Naylor et al.Furthermore, DerSimonian did not include the results of the most recently published double-blind randomized controlled clinical trial on BCAA treatment of HE (4).Table 1 represents a metanalysis of the mortality data extracted by Eriksson and Conn (1) from previous studies (5)(6)(7)(8) plus the data recently published by our group

Lower-extremity arterial emboli from ulcerating atherosclerotic plaques
Authors: R. F. Kempczinski
Journal: JAMA (1979)

Ten cases of lower-extremity emboli originated from proximal, ulcerated atherosclerotic plaques. Two distinct clinical presentations were seen. Embolization of cholesterol-rich debris was usually widespread and lodged in terminal arteries, producing either focal digital ischemia or livedo reticularis of the extremity. By contrast, thrombi arising from mural erosions were larger and produced a picture indistinguishable from emboli of cardiac origin. Biplanar aortography was essential in making the correct diagnosis. Anticoagulation has not prevented recurrent embolization. Endarterectomy or graft replacement of the diseased arterial segment is the preferred method of treatment. Lumbar sympathectomy is a useful adjunct when persistent cutaneous ischemia is present.
