Basic Urinalysis
Authors: George D. Lundberg
Journal: JAMA (1979)

One wonders why this book was written. The authors' preface states, "The purpose of this small volume is to produce a readable, practical manual for the medical student, the physician desiring a short review, and the medical technologist faced with the daily operation of the urinalysis laboratory." To this reviewer the book appears to accomplish none of these goals. It is far too technical for the usual medical student, it is not nearly clinical enough for the physician, and the technical features are too sketchy and incomplete for use by the medical technologist. All groups are served better by existing monographs, articles, and sections of major textbooks on clinical pathology and laboratory medicine. An example of the problems in the book is the chapter on the Addis Count. First, the authors say that the Addis Count is of essentially no value and is not currently used. Then, they use 1

Aphthous ulcers
Authors: E. W M A Bischoff, A. Uijen, M. v. d. Wel
Journal: BMJ (2009)

A 25 year old man presents with oral ulcerations that cause him great discomfort. He explains that these ulcers recurred several times last year, but that the current presentation is far more painful. He asks for your advice on treatment and prevention of these burning sores. Aphthous ulcers⇓ (aphthae or canker sores) are painful solitary or multiple erosions of the oral mucous membrane. Aphthous ulcer is the most common condition of the oral mucosa in developed countries, affecting around 20% of the general population, mostly young adults. Diagnosis is based on history and examination (see box). Fig 1 Minor aphthous ulcer of the tongue #### Differentiation of aphthous ulcers from other oral diseases

What contribution has cardiac surgery made to the decline in mortality from coronary heart disease?
Authors: J M Neutze, H D White
Journal: BMJ (1987)

The number of deaths from coronary artery disease is declining in New Zealand as in some other Western countries. It has been estimated that in 1981 in the Auckland metropolitan area there were 126 fewer deaths than would have been expected from the data in 1974. The contribution made by cardiac surgery to this decline was assessed from the known numbers of patients who were operated on, from their survival rate, and from the predicted mortality of the surgical cohort had they not undergone operation. Such mortality was predicted from past studies of patients with similar symptoms, exercise data, studies of unstable angina, and the coronary artery surgical study registry. From this method it was estimated that coronary surgery accounted for 26% to 42% of the reduction in coronary deaths. Two previous studies estimated, from calculations based on the European study of patients with modest symptoms, that the contribution of cardiac surgery was much lower. Extrapolating data from one subset of patients to a second subset with quite different characteristics is a conceptual fallacy.
Intravenous Feeding
Authors: Francis D. Moore, Murray F. Brennan
Journal: New England Journal of Medicine (1972)

THE vision of intravenous nourishment — as ancient as the hollow needle and the venipuncture — was given substance by sterile solutions of glucose in water at the time of World War I. By the late 1930's intravenous protein hydrolysates were under study,1 and within 10 years appeared the first reports of a fat emulsion for intravenous use.2 By 1950, it was evident that synthetic requirements for protein anabolism included the simultaneous administration of an adequate caloric substrate to inhibit the utilization of the administered amino acids for gluconeogenesis, and to cover the energy needs of peptide bond formation.3 Five . . .

Pancreatitis and Lipase
Authors: Lester J. Lifton
Journal: JAMA (1974)

Lipase activity was simultaneously determined with amylase activity in the sera of 30 hospitalized patients with acute pancreatitis. On admission to the study, 70% of patients with acute pancreatitis had increased serum amylase, 63% had increased lipase, and 83% had increased lipase, increased amylase, or both. All patients had either lipase or amylase increase at some time during the course of their disease. Lipase level elevation paralleled the amylase in the majority of cases. There were several instances of earlier elevation of the lipase level. The traditional thesis that lipase level elevation occurs later and lasts longer than that of amylase was not confirmed. Measurement of serum amylase and lipase levels together will improve diagnostic accuracy in acute pancreatitis. (<i>JAMA</i>229:47-50, 1974)
Congenital syphilis in the newborn. Diagnosis and treatment
Authors: W. D. Harris
Journal: JAMA (1965)

It should be emphasized from the outset that prevention and care of syphilis in the newborn starts with adequate examination, diagnosis, and treatment of syphilis in pregnancy. Adequate treatment of the pregnant woman will either prevent infection of the fetus or cure it in the already infected fetus. The earlier the treatment, the better the prognosis. A thorough medical history, a careful physical examination, and serologic tests for syphilis are the minimum essentials in the pregnant woman. These should be done as early as possible during gestation and repeated towards term. Prenatal as well as premarital examinations and serologic tests for syphilis are moreover required by law in most states. A pregnant woman with early syphilis may have frequent episodes of spirochetemia. The<i>Treponema pallidum</i>may reach the placenta and may go through the placenta to the fetus. As the duration of the disease increases spirochetemia becomes less massive and

COLPOPERINEORRHAPHY AND THE STRUCTURES INVOLVED.
Authors: BYRON ROBINSON
Journal: JAMA (1898)

<h3>GENERAL CONCLUSIONS.</h3> To cure sacropubic hernia (uterine prolapse), perform amputation of the (sharp) cervix; anterior colporrhaphy; Tait's flap perineorrhaphy. The amputation of the cervix is for the purpose of removing the sharp cervical point; directing the cervix backward; restoring the uterus to normal position. The anterior colporrhaphy is for the purpose of narrowing the vagina; elevating the bladder, directing the cervix backward and the fundus forward. The Tait flap perineorrhaphy is for the purpose of restoring the perineum; restoring the obliquity of the genital canal; restoring such a central floor as will efficiently support the rectum, bladder, and genitals. If the cervix be not pointed and retroversion does not exist amputation of the cervix may be omitted in the above procedure. If the uterus and bladder be in normal position and the vagina not prolapsed, anterior colporrhaphy may be omitted. The permanent success of Tait's perineal flap operation consists in
Retinoids as Teratogens
Authors: D. R. Soprano
Journal: Annual Review of Nutrition (1995)

Vitamin A is a necessary nutrient in the diet. However, excessive doses of retinoids by pregnant women result in teratogenesis. In this chapter, we initially discuss the occurrence and characteristics of fetal malformations associated with maternal ingestion of natural and synthetic retinoids in both experimental animals and humans. We then tum to an examination of the pharmacology of teratogenic retinoids, focusing on structure-function relationships and pharmacokinetics. Finally, we review the current literature on the molecular mechanism of action of teratogenic doses of retinoids and the role of the retinoic acid receptors and other target genes in this process.

Transplantation and hemodialysis. I. The recipient's response to renal transplantation
Authors: J. E. Murray
Journal: JAMA (1966)

Medical advances force new judgments and evaluations. The ethics, legality, and morality of organ transplantation, a recent and still unpredictable therapeutic procedure, has already elicited editorials, special articles, and conferences.<sup>1-5</sup>A consensus seems to have been reached acknowledging the morality of a voluntary donation of a kidney by a relative or friend and the legality of the donation by a minor under the age of 21.<sup>6</sup>Less thought has been devoted to the prospective recipient. Often his opinion and reaction is only guessed at on subjective evidence. At the present time, if the kidney donor is a living relative, approximately 70% of the recipients will survive for at least one year; if the donor is an unrelated cadaver, the chances for a one-year survival are about 50%. Failure may occur for three reasons: (1) inexorable immunological rejection not responsive to immunosuppressive drugs, (2) adverse drug effect on the
QuickStats: Percentage* of Adults Aged ≥65 Years Who Reported Ever Receiving a Pneumococcal Vaccination,† by Race/Ethnicity§ and Number of 10 Diagnosed Chronic Conditions¶ — National Health Interview Survey, United States, 2014–2015
Journal: MMWR Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (2016)

During 2014-2015, the percentage of adults aged ≥65 years who reported ever receiving a pneumococcal vaccination ranged from 42.6% for adults who had none of the 10 selected diagnosed chronic conditions to 78.3% for adults with ≥4 diagnosed chronic conditions. For all racial/ethnic populations the percentage of adults who had ever received a pneumococcal vaccination increased as the number of reported chronic conditions increased. Regardless of the number of selected chronic conditions, non-Hispanic white adults were more likely than Hispanic and non-Hispanic black adults to have received the vaccination.
Immunoaugmentative Therapy
Authors: Frank D. Wiewel
Journal: JAMA (1988)

<h3>To the Editor. —</h3> As president of the IAT Patients' Association, I must take issue with the validity of the DATTA report on immunoaugmentative therapy (IAT) published in the June 17 issue of<i>JAMA.</i><sup>1</sup>I am in complete agreement with the section of the accompanying editorial by the Food and Drug Administration's Dr Nightingale<sup>2</sup>correctly pointing out the inherent uselessness of a poll of experts evaluating therapies for which no published data for efficacy currently exist. I am concerned by<i>JAMA</i>'s decision to publish such a meaningless surveyand accompanying report, which only serves to fan the flames of emotionalism that have surrounded the use of IAT since 1974. It is especially unwelcome now as the Office of Technology Assessment moves forward with its design of a protocol for the formal evaluation of IAT, which will begin to resolve questions regarding safety and efficacy. I would think the

Ectopic Pregnancy
Authors: Jane F. Desforges, Sandra A. Carson, John E. Buster
Journal: New England Journal of Medicine (1993)

Ectopic pregnancy may be the only life-threatening disease in which prevalence has increased as mortality has declined1. The most prominent theory to explain this phenomenon involves technological advances that allow the diagnosis of pregnancy before menses are missed, combined with a heightened awareness and aggressiveness on the physician's part in acting on increased suspicion. An estimated 88,400 ectopic pregnancies were diagnosed in the United States in 1989; thus, this is a problem commonly encountered by physicians caring for women of reproductive age1. As diagnosis occurs earlier in gestation, the therapeutic alternatives are changing.Laparotomy, once the standard of . . .
