Preadmission screening of Medicare patients. The clinical impact of reimbursement disapproval
Authors: T. F. Imperiale
Journal: JAMA (1988)

The clinical impact of a statewide Medicare preadmission certification program was assessed with a retrospective survey of Connecticut physicians. In a three-month period, only 100 (0.37%) of 28 450 Medicare admission requests were disapproved for reimbursement. Following disapproval, 22 patients were admitted immediately, 44 received outpatient care, and eight additional outpatients were not evaluated or treated. The remaining 26 patients subsequently were admitted with preadmission approval due to changed clinical condition or failed outpatient plan. Although some patients had minor problems that their physicians believed would have been avoided by immediate admission, no severe morbidity resulted from admission delay. Many physicians expressed concern about preadmission certification program—related patient anxiety and inconvenience. Although this limited survey provides preliminary evidence that preadmission certification programs can be implemented without major deleterious short-term medical effects, continued monitoring of physicians and patients involved in disapproved admissions is necessary to evaluate potential medical and psychosocial problems.

The incidence of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is increasing in the heterosexual population.<sup>1</sup>A significant proportion of this increase is due to injecting drug use. Nwanyanwu et al<sup>2</sup>stated that of all the cases of AIDS reported to the Center for Communicable Diseases, Atlanta, Ga, up to June 1, 1991, 32% were associated with drug abuse; of this group of cases, 70% were in women and heterosexual men. From 1989 to 1990, the increased incidence of AIDS in drug-abusing women was 15% and in women who were sexual partners of drug-abusing men, 29%. This makes for a large pool of potentially human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)—infected pregnant women and presents the obstetrician with the challenge of identifying and treating these patients. Identifying HIV-infected pregnant patients is not always easy; the only way to identify all patients is to offer HIV screening to all pregnant patients. The need for universal

Don't ignore patients' threats, psychiatrists told
Authors: L. Lamberg
Journal: JAMA (1996)

"I HATE YOU, I hate you, I hate you," a patient shrieks into a psychiatry resident's answering machine. A later message is more ominous: "I'm going to kill you." More chilling still: The resident's program director did not take these threats seriously, said forensic psychiatrist John Lion, MD, who played tapes of the calls at a workshop on the management of threats on the lives of clinicians at this year's annual meeting of the American Psychiatric Association (APA). <h3>Attacks Not Uncommon</h3> Physicians commonly discount risks of attacks by patients, said Lion, clinical professor of psychiatry at University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, adding, "They don't want to think the places they work may be dangerous." But at least 1 US physician is killed by a patient nearly every year, Lion said. About half of the 30 workshop attendees reported having been threatened, physically attacked, or stalked; some even reported

Months of Nephrology CareTo the Editor We appreciate Dr Onuigbo's letter 1 regarding our recent study 2 ; it is humbling to read that the nephrology community at large is interested in our findings.We agree, in principle, that "renoprevention," as Dr Onuigbo counsels, is wise.However, to target a syndrome that is described in his research 3 as irreversible seems at odds with the scope and intent of our study. 2 We cannot discern this syndrome from data contained within the US Renal Data System and encourage dedicated physician-scientists who see a large number of patients in a clinical setting, such as Dr Onuigbo, to identify, synthesize, and describe these trends requiring granular patient information as he has so successfully done.Unpublished data from our analysis show that, of the 312 346 patients initiating hemodialysis with an intravascular catheter in the United States between 2006 and 2010, 134 346 (43.0%) had been seen by a nephrologist at least once, and 103 083 (33.0%) had been receiving ongoing care for more than 6 months (
Testicular tumors. The place of nodal dissection
Authors: W. J. Staubitz
Journal: JAMA (1970)

Testis tumor is not a common disease; it accounts for only 1.5% of all malignancies in males. Although it is uncommon, it is very significant because it is found most frequently in the young adult at an average age of 33 years. The fact that it threatens the life of the patient during his most productive years stresses the importance of the need for an aggressive approach to treatment in an effort to prolong the life of an individual whose contributions to his family and society are vital. In an effort to increase survival rates in patients with testis tumor, much effort has been put forth in the development of surgical techniques for the treatment of this disease. One such effort has been the development of retroperitoneal lymph node dissection. First, the unilateral approach was tried and then later a bilateral lymphadenectomy was developed. This report will outline our experience
Pregnancy following renal transplantation in class T diabetes mellitus
Authors: P. L. Ogburn
Journal: JAMA (1986)

Nine cases of pregnancy complicated by diabetes and prior renal transplantation are reviewed. Maternal and fetal death occurred in a patient with foot and leg ulcers associated with preexisting peripheral vascular disease. Pregnancy-induced hypertension occurred in six cases. Spontaneous weight-bearing fractures occurred in two patients. No episodes of renal allograft rejection occurred. Evidence of fetal compromise was present in six cases. All fetuses were delivered by cesarean section prior to term, with live births occurring from 31 1/2 to 36 weeks' gestation. A single case of hypospadias was the only congenital defect. Prepregnancy screening for complications of diabetes and renal transplantation is advised and euglycemia should be achieved before and during pregnancy. Advanced diabetic vascular disease puts these gestations at significant risk. (<i>JAMA</i>1986;255:911-915)
Occupational Asthma and Contact Dermatitis in a Spray Painter after Introduction of an Aziridine Cross-Linker
Authors: Christopher T. Leffler, Donald K. Milton
Journal: Environmental Health Perspectives (1999)

A 23-year-old spray painter developed contact dermatitis and respiratory difficulty characterized by small airways obstruction shortly after the polyfunctional aziridine cross-linker CX-100 began to be used in his workplace as a paint activator. The symptoms resolved after he was removed from the workplace and was treated with inhaled and topical steroids. Painters may have an increased risk of asthma due to exposure to a variety of agents, such as isocyanates, alkyd resins, and chromates. This case illustrates the importance of using appropriate work practices and personal protective equipment to minimize exposure. Occupational asthma is diagnosed by a history of work-related symptoms and exposure to known causative agents. The diagnosis is confirmed by serial pulmonary function testing or inhalational challenge testing. The risk of asthma attributable to occupational exposures is probably underappreciated due to underreporting and to inappropriate use of narrow definitions of exposure in epidemiologic studies of attributable risk.

Cholesterol carriers in human bile: Are “lamellae” involved?
Authors: D Cohen
Journal: Hepatology (1993)

Cholesterol, a highly insoluble molecule, is transported in bile by specialized lipid aggregates. On the basis of extensive correlations between laboratory-prepared model biles and surgically harvested native biles, it has become generally accepted that biliary cholesterol is solubilized by simple and mixed micelles, single bilayered (unilamellar) vesicles and, under certain conditions, multilamellar vesicles (liposomes or liquid crystals) all composed of bile salts, lecithin and cholesterol in different proportions. Current concepts suggest that in lithogenic biles multilamellar vesicles result from aggregation and fusion of unilamellar vesicles and are a principal source from which cholesterol precipitates to form gallstones. Recent reports now challenge the prevailing paradigm by proposing that the principal cholesterol-carrying particles in human biles are not micelles but are "lamellae" composed of stacked membrane-like bilayers of lipids. In this article, we provide a critical overview of the experiments that led to the established views of biliary cholesterol transport and to the newer lamellae hypothesis. The principal evidence for lamellae stems from negative-stain electron microscopy, an artifactprone technique when used to study lipid-rich fluids such as bile. We show that lamellar structures represent both the electron microscopic analog of multilamellar vesicles in supersaturated biles that presage the nucleation of cholesterol crystals and an electron microscopic artifact of fossilized mixed micelles that are in fact very tiny (2 to 4 nm in radius) by state-of-the-art noninvasive techniques. We argue further that the lamellae nomenclature improperly equates two fundamentally distinct physical-chemical mechanisms for cholesterol solubilization and dispersion in bile on the basis of identically appearing electron microscopic images.

Medical Etiquette
Authors: Robert M. Tenery
Journal: JAMA (1966)

The rules of conduct which have been considered to be in the domain of medical etiquette or manners will also open the way for the mutual understanding, the sharing of knowledge, and the fellowship which are traditional with our profession. The physician who does not enjoy the good will of his colleagues can expect to have a lonesome, unhappy professional life and would do well to inspect his manners. Medical etiquette is almost unknown to many younger physicians because the suggested guidelines for this facet of professional conduct were not labeled as such when the Principles of Medical Ethics was revised in 1957. The Judicial Council has stated that "the 1957 edition of the Principles was not intended to and does not abrogate any ethical principle expressed in the 1955 edition." The 1957 edition of the Principles succinctly expresses the fundamental ethical concepts embodied in the cumbersome earlier document that

Heroin-overdose deaths in Atlanta. An epidemic
Authors: D. H. Huber
Journal: JAMA (1974)

Heroin-overdose mortality in Atlanta increased from 0.4/100,000 population in 1970 to 1.9/100,000 in 1971. Eight persons, most of whom were young black men, died in one 11-day period. Concurrently, 12 heroin-overdose survivors were hospitalized. Both groups in this epidemic reportedly had little or no tolerance for large doses of heroin. Heroin content in consumer packages increased from an average of 8.4 mg per package before, to 12.8 mg per package during the epidemic. Heroin content varied from 3.3 to 33.3 mg of heroin per package during this period, although there was great variation in other months as well. The lack of dose standardization may be one important factor in heroin mortality, placing those who have been abstaining and novice heroin users at particularly high risk of overdose.

Dissecting aneurysm of left atrium following external cardiac massage
Authors: R. F. Romfh
Journal: JAMA (1979)

WE REPORT a dissecting aneurysm of the left atrium following external cardiac massage. Although many types of injuries can occur to the heart from external cardiac massage,<sup>1</sup>we found no reports of dissecting atrial aneurysms in that setting. <h3>Report of a Case</h3> A 73-year-old man who underwent mitral valve replacement in 1972 sustained a postoperative heart block that required placement of a permanent transvenous pacemaker, which required continuous anticoagulation with warfarin sodium. In August 1975 at the time of the pacemaker generator replacement, a chest roentgenogram demonstrated a slight bulge in the upper border of the left side of the heart. On Jan 21, 1977, his pacemaker failed, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation was initiated by allied health personnel. At the hospital a temporary transvenous pacemaker was installed. A chest roentgenogram demonstrated cardiomegaly with a massive bulge in the upper border of the left side of the heart (Fig 1). The
Basic Mechanisms of Ovarian Endocrine Function
Authors: David W. Schomberg
Journal: Environmental Health Perspectives (1978)

This review outlines the current understanding of ovarian endocrine development and regulation with both physiological and biochemical background to provide a framework applicable to problems concerning environmental agents and ovarian endocrine function. Two approaches are used. First, the endocrine regulation of follicle development and corpus luteum function is considered in the classical sense, i.e., viewing these structures as gonadotropin-responsive units undergoing a programmed sequence of development and differentiation. Secondly, a relatively new area of ovarian physiology concerned with intra-ovarian regulation is explored, since this area holds potential for exploration of the direct effects of toxicological or environmental agents upon gonadal endocrine cells.
