Race, ethnic group, and disease
Authors: Thomas M. Johnson, Barry J. Fenton, Howard F. Stein
Journal: JAMA (1986)

<h3>To the Editor.—</h3> A recent letter to the editor condemns the common practice of including racial or ethnic group affiliation as part of the patient identification data in medical case reports.<sup>1</sup>While we agree with the assertion that such distinctions are sometimes vague, we take issue with the statement that "the racial distinction of patients by terms such as 'black,' 'white,' 'Indian,' 'Arab,' or others is litigious, improper, and useless." While it may be true that the post hoc reporting of racial or ethnic affiliation in published case reports may not contribute much necessary information (particularly when in tabular form), case reports in the literature often follow directly from the clinical treatment of patients, where assessment of the cultural influences on health beliefs and practices is essential for good medical practice. Indeed, collaboration between medical anthropologists, sociologists, and physicians has resulted in a well-established body of literature cataloging the
INTERN SHORTAGE
Authors: Harvey Poliakoff
Journal: JAMA (1952)

<h3>To the Editor:—</h3> In the past 10 years, hospitals have suffered from a shortage of interns and residents. In many cases, they have tried to solve the problem by increasing the work load of their house staff, increasing salaries, or by unethical competition for persons to fill those posts. These may temporarily solve an individual hospital's problem, but, in the long run, they work to the detriment of the house staff, lower educational standards, and lower general hospital medical standards. It is proposed that committees that regulate and pass on approved residencies and internships attack this exploitation more definitively. It is dishonest for a hospital with nine approved internships to assign all of its patients to the four interns it can attract. Committees have established definite elastic standards of patient load that a resident can carry and have sufficient time for study, conferences, ward rounds, and all the necessities of
Design and Analysis of Studies of the Health Effects of Ozone
Authors: Alvaro Munoz
Journal: Environmental Health Perspectives (1993)

The design and analysis of studies that investigate the effect of exposure to ozone on health outcomes need to define carefully the methods for the assessment of the exposure and to determine precisely which is the outcome of biological relevance.The estimation of sample size for longitudinal studies requires the expected rates of change among the exposed and unexposed, the variance of the outcome, and the correlation of measure- ments taken within an individual.Methods of analysis whose primary interest is in the combination of cross-sectional studies for the determination of the marginal distribution of the outcome are particularly appropriate for biological processes where the effect of exposure is acute.Conditional models are particularly useful for investigating the effect of changes in exposure on changes in outcome at the individual level.In addition, condi- tional models incorporate a dampening effect of exposure that may provide a reasonable agreement with several biological mechanisms.The identi- fication of susceptible individuals and the description of the behavior of their outcomes over time may be better accomplished by using the within-individual variance as the outcome of interest.Discrepancies of the within-and between-individual regressions may be suggestive of chronic effects, and methodological research in this area is needed.Studies of the health effects of ozone exposure need to address the incorporation of missing data, measurement error, and the combination of complementary studies.
甲氨蝶呤是否能有效安全地维持全秃患者的头发再生? 一个经过严格评价议题
Authors: R. Browne, L. Stewart, H.C. Williams
Journal: British Journal of Dermatology (2018)

斑秃(AA)是一种引起脱发的常见疾病,涵盖从斑块脱发到头皮上的头发完全脱落(全秃)或累及所有长有毛发的部位(普秃)。它会造成焦虑、抑郁和自尊心受损。治疗会很困难:虽然选择众多,但是不一定有效且可能出现不良副作用。实际上,头发无需任何治疗也会再生。本研究的目的是评估脱发患者使用甲氨蝶呤药物让头发再生并维持生长的现有证据。作者起初调查了13项研究,涵盖从脱发30%到普秃的226名脱发患者。甲氨蝶呤通常与全身糖皮质激素共同使用,用于让头发开始再生,而不是维持再生头发。据报告,20‐90%的患者会出现从50%到完全再生等不同程度的头发再生。20‐80%的患者会复发(即头发再生,但随后又脱落),而重新治疗后又出现不同程度的再生。7‐60%的患者会出现不良副作用。作者未发现充足的证据能够表明甲氨蝶呤对于大面积斑秃患者维持头发再生是否有用。他们发现,某些证据表明,甲氨蝶呤与全身糖皮质激素结合使用可能会让头发开始再生,但是难以表明是哪种治疗发挥的作用还是头发自发再生。因此,需要进一步试验。
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis. Home treatment with intermittent positive pressure breathing
Authors: A. Farca
Journal: JAMA (1973)

A patient with alveolar proteinosis was treated with intermittent positive pressure breathing (IPPB) using an isotonic sodium chloride solution, heparin sodium, and acetylcysteine. Resolution was demonstrated clinically, radiologically, and by pulmonary function tests. When treatment was discontinued, the disease recurred, but responded again to IPPB used at home. IPPB is recommended for treatment of alveolar proteinosis, since it involves less cost and risk than bronchopulmonary lavage, which has been the treatment of choice.
Clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma treated with immunotherapy: A real-world retrospective study.
Authors: Adel Chergui, Eswar Gadde, Seda Serra Tolu, Ana Acuna-Villaorduna, Rafi Kabarriti, Sanjay Goel, Andreas Kaubisch
Journal: Journal of Clinical Oncology (2020)

557 Background: Advanced HCC is an aggressive malignancy with dismal prognosis. Newer agents, including immunotherapy (IT), have been granted accelerated approval. Information outside clinical trials is scarce. This study is aimed to describe the clinical characteristics and outcomes of HCC patients treated with IT. Methods: Patients with HCC treated with IT were identified using the institutional data-mining software, Clinical Looking Glass. Patient demographics, clinical, and treatment characteristics were collected. Progression-free survival (PFS) was defined as time from treatment initiation to disease progression or death, and overall-survival (OS) as time from diagnosis of advanced disease to death. PFS and OS were plotted using Kaplan-Meier curves. Results: A total of 52 patients; median age 64 years; male predominance (38, 73.1%) were identified. There were 24 (54.5%) Hispanics, 9 (20.5%) Non-Hispanic Blacks, 7 (15.9%) Non-Hispanic White and 4 (9.1%) Asians. Cirrhosis was seen in 41 (83.7%), and median MELD score was 8 (IQ: 7-10). Hepatitis B and C infection were encountered in 12 (24.5%) and 22 (44%) patients, respectively. Imaging evidence of intravascular invasion was seen in 16 (34.8%) and extrahepatic metastases in 7 (14.9%) cases. Local treatment was provided to 29 (59.2%) and radiation treatment to 14 (28.6%) patients. Nivolumab was used in all the cases, as first-line treatment in 17 (32.7%) and as ≥ second line in 35(67.3%). The median PFS was 6.2 (3.1-10.6) months and was similar in first-line and ≥ second line treatment (8 vs 5.9 months, p=0.90). The median OS was 24.2 (18-28) months; there was a tendency towards higher survival rates in patients that were treated in ≥ second line (16.8 vs 25.2 months, 0=0.07). Conclusions: In this multiethnic cohort, the “real world” experience of the benefit of IT in HCC is encouraging, with a median OS exceeding two years. Expanded data may elucidate the differences if any, between use of IT as front vs. second line therapy, in PFS and OS.
Unreviewed Reports

Unreviewed ReportsCrohn's disease, folic acid, and neural tube defects (NTD)If normal maternal folate concentrations are required for neural tube closure, then lowering these might increase NTD incidence.Thus aminopterin caused anencephaly after use as an abortifacient.l We have seen two infants with NTD (one rachischis, one anen- cephaly) born to women with Crohn's disease (one treated with salazopyrine, the other untreated).Over half of patients with Crohn's disease are folate deficient.Blood folate concentrations were normal in both patients but were measured well after neural tube closure.Possibly these cases are coincidental, but any increased risk of NTD in these circumstances should be investi- gated.-

New techniques enable 'heartless' lung transplants
Authors: B. Merz
Journal: JAMA (1987)

RECENT IMPROVEMENTS in immunosuppression, surgical technique, and graft preservation have breathed new life into lung transplantation. The procedure is being revived at Toronto General Hospital, Stanford (Calif) Medical Center, and Harefield Hospital in Great Britain. Joel D. Cooper, MD, director of the Toronto Lung Transplant Group at the University of Toronto, says that the availability of cyclosporine and the use of an omental wrap have made single- and double-lung transplantation viable alternatives to heart/lung transplantation in patients with end-stage interstitial lung disease who have good cardiac function. The Toronto group has performed two successful double-lung transplants since early December 1986 and five successful single-lung transplants since 1983. And surgeons at Harefield Hospital have performed three double-lung procedures since December, but have not reported results. Cooper thinks the recent successes are reversing lung transplantation's dismal record. Single-lung transplantation was introduced in the early 1960s. It was abandoned a decade later after

Toward a brain map of auditory hallucinations
Authors: J M Cleghorn, S Franco, B Szechtman, R D Kaplan, H Szechtman, G M Brown, C Nahmias, E S Garnett
Journal: American Journal of Psychiatry (1992)

This study asks whether auditory hallucinations are reflected in a distinctive metabolic map of the brain.Regional brain metabolism was measured by positron emission tomography with [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose in 12 DSM-III schizophrenic patients who experienced auditory hallucinations during glucose uptake and 10 who did not. All patients were free of neuroleptics and 19 had never been treated with neuroleptics. Nine patients were reexamined after 1 year to assess effects of neuroleptic treatment.Compared with the patients who did not experience hallucinations, the patients who did experience hallucinations had significantly lower relative metabolism in auditory and Wernicke's regions and a trend toward higher metabolism in the right hemisphere homologue of Broca's region. Hallucination scores correlated positively and significantly with relative metabolism in the striatum and anterior cingulate regions. Neuroleptic treatment resulted in a significant increase in striatal metabolism and a reduced frontal-parietal ratio, which was significantly correlated with a decrease in hallucination scores.Auditory hallucinations involve language regions of the cortex in a pattern similar to that seen in normal subjects listening to their own voices but different in that left prefrontal regions are not activated. The striatum plays a critical role in auditory hallucinations.
