Postsplenectomy viral hepatitis
Authors: H. H. Stone
Journal: JAMA (1967)

THERE has been little agreement with respect to the incidence and severity of various infectious diseases following removal of the spleen.<sup>1-5</sup>Most of the studies have been some type of retrospective review, with particular emphasis on a specific infection. Despite several conflicting reports, the consensus of opinion has been that splenectomy does predispose children to the development of certain bacterial infections, especially those due to the<i>Pneumococcus</i>and<i>Meningococcus</i>. An impaired resistance to viral infections has never been seriously considered. Recent experience with several fatalities due to postsplenectomy hepatitis seemed to warrant a more detailed evaluation of splenic function in viral disease. Accordingly, the charts of all patients who had undergone splenectomy or who had been diagnosed as having viral hepatitis were reviewed at Grady Memorial Hospital for the period between Jan 1, 1948, and Dec 31, 1965. <h3>Clinical Material</h3> During the 18 years, 382 patients underwent splenectomy for

Nitrated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons: a risk assessment for the urban citizen
Authors: L Möller, I Lax, L C Eriksson
Journal: Environmental Health Perspectives (1993)

Nitrated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (nitro-PAHs) are formed during incomplete combustion.Sources include emissions from vehicles (mainly diesel vehicles), heating, smoking, certain types of food processing, and incomplete combustion in general.Nitro-PAHs are direct-acting mutagens, and a number of them have been shown to be carcinogens. 2-Nitrofluorene (NF) represents a model substance for the nitro-PAHs.An attempt has been made to calculate the human cancer risk due to exposure to nitro-PAHs by two different models.In the first model, genotoxic lesions were transferred to units of Gray (y-irradiation), and in the second model a mega study (24,000 animals) on the carcinogenicity of one metabolite of NF was used to elucidate the risk.Gamma-irradiation of the rat liver gave rise to preneoplastic foci in a dose-dependent manner.which was statistically significant.The Gray-equivalents of chemically (NF) induced foci were calculated, and from the human nitro-PAH exposure, expressed in Sievert, a human risk estimate was calculated.In the second model, an extrapolation from laboratory animals to man was performed because tumor data on 2-acety- laminofluorene (AAF), a major metabolite of NF, were available in the literature.The tumor dose-response data on AAF was linear for tested lifetime doses.The results ofboth models agreed, with a risk range of 0.15-49x 10 -i on human cancer risk for an urban citizen.

Intra-articular radioactive yttrium and triamcinolone hexacetonide: an inconclusive trial. Arthritis and Rheumatism Council Multicentre Radiosynoviorthesis Trial Group.
Journal: Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases (1984)

A restricted sequential design multicentre controlled trial of yttrium-90 against triamcinolone intra-articularly was undertaken in patients with rheumatoid arthritis with knee involvement. The trial had to be discontinued because of dwindling recruitment over time. The reasons for this and other features contributing to an inconclusive outcome are noted. This experience lends little encouragement to the idea that yttrium-90 therapy is more or less advantageous than triamcinolone hexacetonide.
Serum creatine kinase in the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction. Optimal sampling frequency
Authors: M. L. Fisher
Journal: JAMA (1983)

To document optimal sampling frequency, we reviewed creatine kinase (CK) myocardial specific isoenzyme (CKMB) results in 314 patients with suspected acute myocardial infarction (MI). In 127 patients with elevated CK/CKMB, peak CK observed using all samples (every four-hour [Q4hr] method) was compared with results that would have been obtained had samples been taken on admission and either twice daily (every 12-hour [Q12hr] method) or once daily (every 24-hour [024hr] method). Although average peak CK was statistically different (Q4hr&gt;Q12hr&gt;Q24hr), major underestimation of peak CK (≥500 units/L) was uncommon (3%) using the Q12hr method, suggesting that Q12hr sampling is a practical, cost-effective approach for patients with suspected acute MI.

Population prevalence of COPDTo the Editors:The study by SHIRTCLIFFE et al. [1] discusses the use of various definitions of abnormal spirometric results to estimate the prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in New Zealand and raises a major question that is not addressed in the analyses.Childhood asthma is common and can lead to a degree of irreversible airflow obstruction in adulthood.In another New Zealand study, based on the Dunedin longitudinal populationbased cohort, SEARS et al. [2] reported that persistent or relapsing childhood asthma was present in 26.9% of 26-yrold study subjects.This is not dissimilar to the prevalence of doctor-diagnosed asthma (24%) in subjects undergoing pulmonary function testing in the Wellington study.RASMUSSEN et al. [3] also reported that airway remodelling, based on an abnormal post-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in one second/forced vital capacity ratio, determined as a ratio o2 SD below the mean for healthy age-and sex-matched individuals, was present in 22% of males and 10.5% of females with asthma at 26 yrs of age.It is likely, therefore, that a proportion of subjects determined by spirometry to have ''chronic obstructive pulmonary disease'' in the Wellington study [1] have asthma-related impairment of lung function.The prevalence of nonasthmarelated chronic obstructive pulmonary disease could be determined by excluding subjects with a history of doctordiagnosed asthma, and if so I suspect the actual prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, especially in the younger age groups, reported by SHIRTCLIFFE et al. [1] as 5.6% in those aged ,40 yrs and 12% among nonsmokers, would then be significantly lower than reported.

Western European responses to physician oversupply. Lessons for the United States
Authors: S. A. Schroeder
Journal: JAMA (1984)

The supply and specialty distribution of physicians in Belgium, West Germany, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom were compared with those in the United States. The numbers of physicians per 10,000 population in 1980 was 24 (Belgium), 22.9 (West Germany), 19.1 (United States), 19.0 (the Netherlands), and 16.2 (United Kingdom). Projections for 1990 were 34 (Belgium), 32.6 (West Germany), 24.3 (United States), and 17.1 (United Kingdom). The United States and the United Kingdom produce about half as many physicians per population but have a much higher proportion (26%) of foreign physicians. The United States has a much higher ratio of specialists to generalists. Official recognition of physician oversupply exists in Belgium, which is restricting specialty training, and the Netherlands, which is reducing both medical school intake and specialty training, but not yet in West Germany. The European experience suggests that the United States' most pressing health manpower problem is an oversupply of specialists. (<i>JAMA</i>1984;252:373-384)

Erratum to: Unexpectedly low pulse oximetry measurements associated with variant hemoglobins: A systematic review
Authors: Madeleine Verhovsek, Matthew P.A. Henderson, Gerard Cox, Hong‐yuan Luo, Martin H. Steinberg, David H.K. Chui
Journal: American Journal of Hematology (2011)

Abstract Pulse oximetry estimates arterial blood oxygen saturation based on light absorbance of oxy‐ and deoxy‐hemoglobin at 660 and 940 nm wavelengths. Patients with unexpectedly low SpO 2 often undergo cardio‐pulmonary testing to ascertain the cause of their hypoxemia. However, in a subset of patients, a variant hemoglobin is responsible for low SpO 2 measurements. The extent of this problem is unclear. We performed a systematic literature review for reports of low SpO 2 associated with variant hemoglobins. We also reviewed unpublished cases from an academic hemoglobin diagnostic reference laboratory. Twenty‐five publications and four unpublished cases were identified, representing 45 patients with low SpO 2 and confirmed variant hemoglobin. Fifty‐seven family members of patients had confirmed or suspected variant hemoglobin. Three low oxygen affinity variant hemoglobins had concordantly low SpO 2 and SaO 2 . Eleven variant hemoglobins were associated with unexpectedly low SpO 2 measurements but normal SaO 2 . Hemoglobin light absorbance testing was reported in three cases, all of which showed abnormal absorption spectra between 600 and 900 nm. Seven other variant hemoglobins had decreased SpO 2 , with unreported or uncertain SaO 2 . Twenty‐one variant hemoglobins were found to be associated with low SpO 2 . Most variant hemoglobins were associated with spuriously low SpO 2 . Abnormal absorption spectra explain the discrepancy between SpO 2 and SaO 2 for some variants. The differential diagnosis of possible variant hemoglobin ought to be considered in asymptomatic patients found to have unexpectedly low SpO 2 . The correct diagnosis will help to spare patients from unnecessary investigations and anxiety. Am. J. Hematol. 86:722–725, 2011. © 2011 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Arterial Embolus
Authors: Joseph R. Thompson
Journal: JAMA (1974)

Right internal carotid and left brachial arterial occlusions resulting from left atrial myxoma occurred in the absence of cardiac findings to explain the embolization. Following surgical removal of the myxomatous emboli, a cardiac source was suspected, and therefore, cardiac surgery was performed. A small, irregular tumor base was found in the left atrium, but no morphologic heart abnormalities were present. When nonfatal arterial emboli occur, even in the presence of a normal cardiac evaluation, an aggressive angiographic and surgical search for the cause may prevent future fatal embolization due to primary cardiac myxoma.
