Blue plans Medical Necessity program
Authors: M. J. Shapiro
Journal: JAMA (1979)

ADOLPH et al (JAMA 241:799-800,1979), in their COMMENTARY, protest the policy of the Blue Cross and Blue Shield associations as it applies to phonocardiography, pulse tracings, and apex cardiograms. The writers fear that patients will be denied these procedures when they might be of specific benefit to the patient. The policy they protest denies nothing. It recommends to Blue Cross and Blue Shield plans that payment be made only when the claim is accompanied by a report from the physician stating the indications in the given case. There is nothing in the policy that recommends abandonment of phonocardiography, as implied in the title, and nothing that denies any of the procedures when indicated. Nine of the 11 cardiologists protesting the policy might protest the need to submit a claim by report, but there is no justification for the implication that the policy recommended to the associations by the American College
The chest roentgenogram in sporadic cases of Legionnaires' disease
Authors: G. A. Storch
Journal: JAMA (1981)

We reviewed chest roentgenograms from 17 persons with confirmed Legionnaires' disease. None of the cases was associated with known outbreaks. Pulmonary infiltrates, usually extensive, were present in all cases. The predominant radiological pattern both on initial roentgenograms and those from the peak of illness was distal air space disease, usually in a segmental or lobar distribution. The lower lobes were involved most frequently. Pleural effusion and volume loss were infrequent. Radiological findings progressed rapidly and often cleared rapidly, although slow clearing was also seen in some cases. Legionnaires' disease should be included in the radiological differential diagnosis of segmental or lobar pneumonia. (<i>JAMA</i>1981;245:587-590)

Age trends in autopsy rates. Striking decline in late life
Authors: J. C. Ahronheim
Journal: JAMA (1983)

Age-related autopsy rates were computed from 99,145 death certificates and disclosed a striking decline with advancing age, the peak (82.5%) occurring in the third decade of life, the nadir (2.4%) by age 90 years. The trend was the same for both sexes, although at all ages men were more likely to undergo autopsies than women. There was a significant decline in late life for medical examiner (ME) and non-ME cases. Rates varied according to immediate cause of death. The only causes of death in which there was no significant age-associated decline were homicide, suicide, and transport accidents, where autopsy is mandated by law. For other causes of death analyzed, rates declined significantly with age in both sexes, for ME as well as for non-ME cases. We conclude that low autopsy rates in late life are not artifactual but represent an overall phenomenon deserving closer scrutiny. (<i>JAMA</i>1983;250:1182-1186)

Staphylococcus aureus isolates from patients with nonmenstrual toxic shock syndrome. Evidence for additional toxins
Authors: P. L. Garbe
Journal: JAMA (1985)

Although toxic shock syndrome toxin—1 (TSST-1) has been proposed as the toxin responsible for toxic shock syndrome, its role in this disease has not been proved. To study this question, we examined<i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>strains isolated from normally sterile sites in patients with nonmenstrual toxic shock syndrome for the presence of TSST-1 production. Only 20 (62.5%) of 32 produced TSST-1, compared with 41 (93%) of 44 vaginal isolates from patients with menstrual toxic shock syndrome. Of strains of S<i>aureus</i>from patients with nonmenstrual toxic shock syndrome, TSST-1—negative isolates were more likely to be associated with a fatal outcome and to not be phage group I than TSST-1—positive isolates. Seven of the TSST-1—negative strains were evaluated in a rabbit subcutaneous chamber model of toxic shock syndrome. Fifteen (60%) of 25 rabbits developed a toxic shock syndrome—like illness and nine died. Clinical signs and histopathologic findings in the rabbits were similar to those seen in rabbits inoculated with TSST-1—positive S<i>aureus</i>isolates. These results suggest that other, as yet unrecognized, toxins play a role in toxic shock syndrome, and that TSST-1 production may not be essential to the pathogenesis of toxic shock syndrome.

Journal: Eurosurveillance (2013)

Since January 2013, an unusual increase in hepatitis A cases has been detected in northern Italy. A total number of 352 cases were reported to the integrated surveillance system between January and the end of May 2013 and this represents a 70% increase compared to the same period of the previous year. The outbreak is ongoing and the public health authorities are continuing their investigations to establish the transmission vehicle and to control the outbreak.

Incentive Spirometry and Pulmonary Complications 422The combination of morbid obesity and laparoscopic foregut surgery puts patients undergoing bariatric surgery at higher risk for developing postoperative pulmonary complications.This randomized clinical trial assessed the eff ect of postoperative incentive spirometry on hypoxemia, oxygen saturation, and pulmonary complications after bariatric surgery.The authors found that using postoperative incentive spirometry after bariatric surgery did not decrease hypoxemia or postoperative pulmonary complications.
Isolation of Wild Poliovirus Type 3 Among Members of a Religious Community Objecting to Vaccination—Alberta, Canada, 1993
Journal: JAMA (1993)

During September 1992-February 1993, 68 cases of poliomyelitis occurred among members of a religious community in the Netherlands. Because members of an affiliated religious community in Alberta, Canada, had direct contact (i.e, travel to and from the Netherlands) with members of the affected community, health authorities in Alberta conducted an investigation during January-February 1993 to determine whether this poliovirus had been imported. This report summarizes the results of this investigation.

given to the other.An infusion of 15 mg guanethidine in 30 ml saline was given into the right arm; at the same time the left stellate ganglion was blocked with 8 ml bupivacaine.The improvement lasted about an hour in both arms.The pain relief was slightly better on the side blocked by local anaesthetic into the stellate ganglion, and the im- provement in the sensitivity was better in that arm.The patient could move both arms without inducing much pain.On another occasion 15 mg guanethidine in 30 ml saline was infused into the right arm.The effects were the same as those of the previous infusion of guanethidine but lasted only an hour.On two occasions guanethidine 5%,' was given iontophoretically into the terminal phalanges of the fifth and fourth fingers.The difference in sensitivity between these phalanges and the proximal untreated phalanges was considerable.The terminal phalanges could be stroked, pressed, and touched lightly without any pain being induced.
Necrotizing Enterocolitis
Authors: C. L. Berry, G. C. Fraser
Journal: BMJ (1966)

In humans, age-related declines in vision, hearing, and touch coincide with changes in amplitude and latency of sensory-evoked potentials. These age-related differences in neural activity may be related to a common deterioration of supra-modal brain areas (e.g., PFC) that mediate activity in sensory cortices or reflect specific sensorineural impairments that may differ between sensory modalities. To distinguish between these two possibilities, we measured neuroelectric brain activity while 37 young adults (18-30 years, 18 males) and 35 older adults (60-88 years, 20 males) were presented with a rapid randomized sequence of lateralized auditory, visual, and somatosensory stimuli. Within each sensory domain, we compared amplitudes and latencies of sensory-evoked responses, source activity, and functional connectivity (via phase-locking value) between groups. We found that older adults9 early sensory-evoked responses were greater in amplitude than those of young adults in all three modalities, which coincided with enhanced source activity in auditory, visual, and somatosensory cortices. Older adults also showed stronger neural synchrony than young adults between superior prefrontal and sensory cortices; and in older adults, the degree of phase synchrony was positively correlated with the magnitude of source activity in sensory areas. Critically, older adults who showed enhanced neural activity in one sensory domain also showed enhanced activity in other modalities. Together, these findings support the common cause hypothesis of aging and highlight the role of prefrontal regions in exerting top-down control over sensory cortices. <b>SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT</b> A prominent theory of aging posits that age-related declines in sensory processing across domains are related to a single common neurobiological mechanism. However, the neural evidence supporting this common cause hypothesis has remained elusive. Our study revealed robust age-related changes in three sensory domains across a range of neural metrics. Importantly, older adults who showed increased neural activity within one sensory domain also showed enhanced neural activity in the other two sensory modalities. No such relation among activity in sensory cortices was observed in young adults. Age-related increases in neural activity in sensory cortices coincided with enhanced neural synchrony between the PFC and sensory cortices, underlining the importance of the PFC in regulating sensory processing.

Abstract 3388: Tumor suppressor genes may promote tumorigenesis through allele specific expression
Authors: Evan Clayton
Journal: Cancer Research (2019)

Abstract Cancer has long thought to be a disease which develops from de novo cancer driver mutations in oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes (TSGs). The purpose of our study is to examine how TSGs contribute to tumorigenesis. Accordingly, we studied loss-of-function (LoF) mutations in TSGs within 2504 individuals from 1000 Genomes Project (1KGP) and 233 patients across four different cancer types from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). We found a large fraction of 1KGP individuals were carriers of heterozygous LoF mutations in TSGs. However, compound heterozygosity of LoF mutations in at least one TSG was only found in 20% of our TCGA patients. Further, analysis of allele specific expression (ASE) in these tumors identified several TSGs where the mutant allele is overexpressed relative to the reference allele. This evidence of ASE suggests TSGs have the potential to drive tumorigenesis in the heterozygous condition, if the reference allele is sufficiently repressed. Citation Format: Evan Clayton.

In a recent issue of Hepatology (1982; 2:777), Wu et al. suggested that HBsAg-positive chronic active hepatitis (CAH) patients do better histologically without corticosteroids.However, two points brought out in your editorial of the same issue need emphasis.Two-thirds of their patients had cirrhosis.Histologic features of CAH did not correlate with clinical and biochemical features.It appears from earlier studies that CAH with clinical and biochemical features but without cirrhosis is the group that responds best to corticosteroids.Even in this subgroup, HBsAg-negative patients do better than HBsAg-positive ones.It still remains to be shown that the HBsAg-positive subgroup does not benefit from corticosteroid treatment.
