Electrocardiography in athletes
Authors: G. A. Sheehan
Journal: JAMA (1973)

<h3>To the Editor.—</h3> Few professionals in medical care will be dissuaded from routine electrocardiography of athletes by Dr. Gordon Cumming's argument that it is unrealistic both by cost benefit and subject benefit criteria. We physicians know that no decisions today are based on costs or benefit to the patient. In an affluent society, where health is concerned, there can be no economy. I would like to suggest what I consider a more compelling argument against routine electrocardiography— harm to the athlete, the harm specifically being disqualification from sports for alarming, but innocuous variants on the electrocardiogram. This past year I had occasion to review the ECGs of an entire pro football squad. At least 10% of the tracings would have been judged as pathological by inexperienced readers and perhaps even veteran readers not cognizant that such changes can be normal in athletes. One player had previously been subjected to coronary

Axillary block and dialysis
Authors: B. J. Urban
Journal: JAMA (1967)

Heretofore the insertion of arteriovenous shunts using local infiltration has been made difficult by the occurrence of vascular spasm. The changing caliber of the vessels has resulted in leakage and diminished flow at the shunt, necessitating frequent revisions. To obviate these difficulties and to permit more adequate cannulas to be employed, blocking of the brachial plexus was initiated. This technique, using the axillary approach, was undertaken on 30 cases. The resultant vasodilation and analgesia facilitated surgery appreciably. Infrared photography and thermographic examinations substantiating the clinical findings were done. Axillary block of the brachial plexus is regarded the method of choice for this procedure, providing excellent working conditions for the surgeon with a minimum of risk and discomfort for the patient.

Rapid Increase in HIV Rates—Orel Oblast, Russian Federation, 1999-2001
Journal: JAMA (2003)

During 1999-2001, the estimated number of cases of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) reported officially in the Russian Federation increased approximately 16-fold, from 11,000 to 177,000. In 2001, of 49,434 HIV-infected persons for whom a risk factor was identified, 46,274 (94%) were injection-drug users (IDUs). However, the actual number of HIV-infected persons in Russia is estimated to be four to 10 times higher than reported. Rapid increases in HIV have been reported in urban areas (e.g., Kaliningrad, Moscow, and St. Petersburg) and also might be occurring in rural areas. During 1997-2000, HIV seroprevalence reportedly increased 33-fold in Orel Oblast, a predominantly rural, agricultural province (1999 population: 900,000) in central European Russia. To confirm and describe this increase and evaluate the risk for continued rapid increase of HIV, CDC collaborated with the Orel Oblast AIDS and Infectious Diseases Prevention Center (AIDS Center) to assess recent HIV trends and the prevalence of risk behaviors among IDUs in Orel Oblast. This report summarizes the results of that assessment, which indicate continued increases in HIV rates and underscore the need for interventions directed at IDUs and their sex partners to limit further spread of HIV.

Harveian Lectures on the Prognosis and Treatment of Chronic Diseases of the Chest in Relation to Modern Pathology
Authors: J. E. Pollock
Journal: BMJ (1881)

MR. PRESIDENT AND GENTLEMEN,-In reviewing the subject of the treatment of chronic lung-disease, I do not propose to do more than regard it in its relation to modern pathological views.-It is not my intention to take up the subject generally, but to limit our inquiries to those improvements which recent knowledge has developed, and which are rounded on the strict relation of symptoms to structural altera.tions.All our views of treatment should be fbunded on the basis of a knowledge of the structural conditions of disease, and, if possible, on the causes which have led up to them.lVhen we treat symptomS only, we are treating events sometimes of the most short-lived cha- racter; and it is only when they indicate the workings of deeper-seated causes, that they rise into prominence and demand a remedy.If a patient be near destruction from a high temperature-as is, indeed, the case occasionally-we are called on to reduce the temperature by cold baths or quinine, or some of the other means at our command; but, if the elevation of temperature be merely an indication of inflammation or irritation and congestion of a vital organ, we shall not effectually relieve our patient till we have diminished the congestion, when, as we know ftom experience, the temperature will surely fall.In considering the question of treating affections in which structural alterations have taken place, and are likely to extend, we would naturally consider the constitutional or.general symptoms, and the local, or those strictly referable to the affected part or organ.Now, from whatever cause or " constitution" the chronic affections in the lung which we have been considering have arisen at first, it is pretty evident that the, larger part of the symptoms, and certainly the most pressing, as exhausting the patient, are due to the local irritation of the lung.During the active degeneration of morbid products, and the ulcerative processes accompanying, the patient wastes rapidly, and has high temperature and sweatings.On the cessation of such processes

Journal: Endoscopy (2008)

Opening its doors to individual members in 2007 proved to be exactly the right step, says ESGE President Jacques Devi`ere. This increase in network activities is an important part of promoting good endoscopy, spreading knowledge and giving endoscopists in Europe and beyond as many opportunities as possible to attend workshops and symposiums, to increase their skills and contribute to highly valuable research projects. The ESGE is especially proud to have negotiated reduced registration fees for several international workshops. A current list is added in this newsletter.
Incidence of estrogen receptor in benign nevi and human malignant melanoma
Authors: P. K. Chaudhuri
Journal: JAMA (1980)

This study was performed as an initial step to evaluate the possible effects of steroid hormones on benign nevi. Cytoplasmic receptors for estrogen were found in nine (41%) of 21 benign nevi from melanoma patients. Ten (37%) of 27 melanoma tumor tissues also had receptor for estrogen. Benign nevi from 17 normal persons had no estrogen receptor activity. The similar incidence of estrogen receptor in benign nevi from melanoma patients and in melanoma tissue itself, compared with the absence of receptor in benign nevi from a normal population, suggests that steroid hormones such as estrogen may represent a molecular alteration associated with a potential pathophysiologic transformation of a benign nevus to its malignant counterpart.

Objective To test whether standard information for patients using Crunchie and Aero chocolate bars to explain bone health and risk of fracture is robust.Design Observational study.Setting Domestic kitchen in rural west Wales.Participants 10 Crunchie bars and 10 Aero bars.Main outcome measure Fracture after falls from varying heights.Results Both Crunchie and Aero bars exhibited the same T and Z scores for bone density.Crunchie bars had a lower chocolate mass index than the Aero bars.Crunchie bars are more liable to fracture.Conclusions Using Crunchie and Aero chocolate bars to explain bone structure to patients may be visually attractive but oversimplifies the situation. IntroductIonIt is important that information provided to patients as part of their treatment should be comprehensive and accurate.Within our area of practice relating to osteoporosis and fragility fracture we have noticed a tendency to compare normal, healthy bone to the finely honeycombed structure of a Crunchie (Cadbury Trebor Bassett; Bournville, Birmingham) chocolate bar and to compare abnormal, osteoporotic bone to the coarser structure of an Aero (Nestle UK; York) bar (fig 1). 1 2 Although this explanation is readily appreciated by patients and clinicians it struck us that the comparison may not be completely valid as no work has been published on the fracture potential of each bar.This might mean that with best intentions we are advising patients to aspire to a bone structure that is actually more liable to fracture.To enable us to provide accurate data to our patients we studied the fracture risk for each chocolate bar. MethodsWe randomly purchased 20 chocolate bars (10 Crunchie and 10 Aero) from a reputable high street confectioner; the number of bars was limited by research funds and our rural environment.Each bar was measured to provide information on height

In this population-based study, determinants of QT interval prolongation were evaluated among patients with coronary disease.These patients were compared with cases of sudden cardiac death who also had coronary disease to identify risk predictors of sudden cardiac death.Gender, diabetes mellitus, and QT-prolonging drugs were determinants of QT prolongation in coronary artery disease.In addition, diabetes mellitus and QT-prolonging drugs were identified as significant predictors of sudden cardiac death risk.However, QT interval prolongation of unknown origin (in the absence of diabetes or QT-prolonging drugs) was an even stronger predictor of sudden death risk, resulting in a 5-fold increase in sudden death risk among patients with coronary disease.These findings have significant implications for improvement of sudden death risk stratification among patients with coronary artery disease.Risk stratification with the prolonged corrected QT interval may allow us to extend beyond the left ventricular ejection fraction, which we are learning is, at best, a modest predictor of risk of sudden death.Other recent research suggests that relatively common gene variations may contribute to the idiopathic QT prolongation observed among patients with coronary artery disease.Therefore, to optimize the effectiveness of the prolonged QT interval as a risk stratification tool, a continued search for novel determinants of QTc prolongation such as genomic factors is warranted.See p 663.

Poor antenatal care implicated in half of stillbirths 68, 71Poor antenatal care might have contributed to the outcome in up to half of stillbirths recorded in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland during 1996 and 1997, says a report published last week by the Confidential Enquiry into Stillbirths and Deaths in Infancy.The eighth annual reportpublished as part of the enquiry's ongoing remit to identify areas of suboptimal care contributing to the deaths of babies between 20 weeks' gestation and 1 year of age-showed that stillbirth remained the commonest category of death in this age group.Key areas of concern included lack of coordinated antenatal risk assessment and referral practices throughout pregnancy, poor recognition and management of the growth restricted baby, issues related to fetal movement (failure to act on reduced movements reported by mothers), communication (lack of planning, poor documentation), and lifestyle issues (smoking, poor attendance).
