Antarctic Psychology
Authors: Thomas H. Lewis
Journal: JAMA (1988)

This book must be considered at two levels. At the first, as a paperback government bulletin with a strong civil service style and nationalistic flavor, it succeeds passing well. One presumes that the New Zealand contingent (nine to 11 members each year) will welcome publication and discussion of the data they provided. The author is a clinical professor at Victoria University, Wellington. After taking an MS degree, with studies on the psychology of prisoners and with experience as a social worker, he became interested in constructing questionnaires to screen applicants for polar work. He felt it important, he says, to avoid membership on the formal panels of selectors of the Antarctic Division, New Zealand Department of Scientific and Industrial Research. Instead, as an Honorary Consultant, he pursued his individual inquiries for more than 20 years. This book presents the author's test instruments and questionnaires. These are, in his words, "highly

Treatment-induced blood pressure reduction and the risk of myocardial infarction
Authors: M. H. Alderman
Journal: JAMA (1989)

To examine the relationship between degree of treatment-induced blood pressure (BP) reduction and myocardial infarction, the experience of 1765 previously untreated, mild to moderate hypertensives (initial BP ≥160 and/or ≥95 mm Hg) in a systematic treatment program was reviewed. Over an average of 4.2 years, there were 39 morbid or fatal myocardial infarctions. Three types of fall in diastolic BP (final minus pretreatment) were defined: small (≤6 mm Hg), moderate (7 to 17 mm Hg), and large (≥18 mm Hg). By Cox regression, an association was observed between myocardial infarctions and both a large and a small fall, relative to a moderate decline. Age and sex were independent risk factors. Body mass index, cholesterol level, electrocardiogram, race, prior cardiovascular disease, smoking status, initial and final revisit BP, total intreatment BP, and systolic BP were not. Since both a large and small reduction in diastolic BP were associated with a higher incidence of myocardial infarction (relative to a moderate fall), perhaps a moderate reduction in diastolic BP should be the goal of treatment for mild and moderate hypertensives.

THE SYNCYTIUM.
Authors: LAURA HOUSE BRANSON
Journal: JAMA (1907)

<h3>DEFINITION AND EMBRYOLOGY OF SYNCYTIAL TISSUE.</h3> The word "syncytium" is derived from two Greek words, signifying together, a hollow vessel. <h3>1. Biology Definition.</h3><h3>2. Zoology Definition.</h3> —The syncytium is the ectoderm of a sponge. <h3>3. Definition as to place in human anatomy.</h3> —The syncytium is one of the epithelial layers of the chorionic villi. It is of fetal origin; this has been proved by the fact that in men and children neoplasms have been found of which syncytial tissue formed one of the component parts. Peters,<sup>1</sup>Minot<sup>2</sup>and Marchand<sup>3</sup>have demonstrated conclusively that the syncytium is derived from the primitive ectoderm and mesoderm or trophoblast. These investigations have opened the way into a broad field for the scientist; they have thrown a new light on pathologic findings on. the subject
Flammable Fabrics
Authors: Donna Barnako
Journal: JAMA (1972)

This year an estimated 3,000 to 5,000 people will die from burns associated with flammable fabrics. Another 150,000 to 250,000 people will be injured. Children and the elderly will constitute the greatest number of victims. After July 1973, children's sleepwear as large as size 6X must be flameproofed. According to the Commerce Department's new regulation, when the nightwear is exposed to a flame for three seconds, the fire must be self-extinguishing and leave no charring more than 18 cm (7 inches) from the point of contact. This regulation will help, but it will affect only one part of the problem: the new standard will be difficult to enforce, and, according to one manufacturer, will cause the price of such garments to increase by 30%. A number of tragedies associated with two highly flammable items gave impetus to the passage of the Flammable Fabrics Act. The so-called "torch sweaters" and explosive
National assessment of physicians' breast-feeding knowledge, attitudes, training, and experience
Authors: G. L. Freed
Journal: JAMA (1995)

<h3>Objective.</h3> —Previous reports have demonstrated that physician counseling can improve rates of breast-feeding initiation and duration but suggest that physicians are ill-prepared for this role. It is unclear whether residency training for pediatricians, obstetrician/gynecologists, and family physicians provides the knowledge and skills necessary for effective breast-feeding promotion. <h3>Design.</h3> —Survey. <h3>Participants.</h3> —A national random sample of 3115 residents and 1920 practicing physicians in pediatrics, obstetrics/gynecology, and family medicine. <h3>Outcomes.</h3> —Assessment of breast-feeding knowledge, attitudes, training, and experience. <h3>Results.</h3> —Overall response rate was 68%. All groups demonstrated significant deficits in knowledge of breast-feeding benefits and clinical management; for example, less than 50% of residents chose appropriate clinical management for a breast-fed jaundiced infant or a breast abscess. Practicing physicians performed slightly better, but still more than 30% chose incorrect advice for mothers with low milk supply. Residents reported that their breast-feeding instruction consisted mainly of didactic lecture, not patient experience. Only 55% of senior residents recalled even one instance of precepting related to breast-feeding, and less than 20% had demonstrated breast-feeding techniques at least five times during residency. Regarding preparation for breast-feeding counseling, more than 50% of all practicing physicians rated their residency training as inadequate. Overall, physician involvement in breast-feeding promotion was endorsed by 90% of respondents, yet only half rated themselves as effective in counseling breast-feeding patients. The greatest predictor of physician self-confidence was previous personal or spousal breast-feeding experience. <h3>Conclusions.</h3> —In this national sample of residents and practicing physicians in three specialties, physicians were ill-prepared to counsel breast-feeding mothers. Deliberate efforts must be made to incorporate clinically based breast-feeding training into residency programs and continuing education workshops to better prepare physicians for their role in breast-feeding promotion.

Skewed distributions
Authors: P. Sedgwick
Journal: BMJ (2010)

Researchers investigated the trend in sperm counts between 1940 and 1990.1 They measured sperm concentrations in 235 men presenting for stimulated in vitro fertilisation (fig 1⇓) and compared these measurements with reference ranges for the 50 year period. Fig 1 Distribution of sperm concentration in 235 men presenting for stimulated in vitro fertilisation A separate study investigated whether management of depression in UK general practice varied with severity.2 It measured severity of depression using the self completed nine item patient health questionnaire (PHQ-9). Patients obtained a score between zero and 27, with high scores representing greater severity. A total of 1658 depressed patients were assessed (fig 2 ⇓). Fig 2 Distribution of depression severity for 1658 patients in general practice as assessed by the PHQ-9 questionnaire Which of the following statements, if any, are true?
Ultrasonic imaging of pericholecystic inflammation
Authors: M. Crade
Journal: JAMA (1980)

ALTHOUGH the oral cholecystogram has been found to be an extremely reliable method of diagnosing cholecystitis,<sup>1,2</sup>it is unable to document the presence or extent of pericholecystic inflammation. Similar in accuracy for diagnosing gallstones,<sup>3,4</sup>ultrasound in addition can document the degree of inflammatory spread prior to surgery.<sup>5</sup>The following cases illustrate this application. <h3>Report of Cases</h3><h3>Case 1.—</h3> An 85-year-old man had a four-day history of abdominal pain, temperature elevation to 38.8 °C, and a WBC count of 19,500/cu mm. Ultrasound examination showed a stone within the gallbladder adjacent to a debris-filled abscess cavity (Fig 1). At surgery, 150 mL of pus was drained and the perforated gallbladder removed. <h3>Case 2.—</h3> Presenting with fever, a three-week history of jaundice, and a WBC count of 21,000/cu mm, a 50-year-old woman underwent an ultrasound examination for a palpated right upper abdominal mass. Findings were consistent with an empyema of the

Bone lead levels and delinquent behavior
Authors: E. J. Schoen
Journal: JAMA (1996)

<h3>To the Editor.</h3> —The article by Dr Needleman and collegues<sup>1</sup>is based on analyzing bone lead by XRF, a method of unproven clinical reliability. An XRF registry has recently been developed by the lead-testing industry in response to increasing reports of poor and highly variable data quality of XRF analyses for industrial use. Analyses for medical studies should have more exacting requirements. Needleman et al stated in their "Methods" that bone lead and psychological studies were done twice, 2 years apart. They indicated that the bone lead results of the first study were not usable (the lead x-ray levels from even the high-lead phantoms were obscured), although in the second study they were more readily "detectable." What does this mean in terms of specificity, sensitivity, and reproducibility? Further, why did the authors only compare the neuropsychological results of the first study with the XRF results of the second study?
Firearm-Associated Deaths and Hospitalizations—California, 1995-1996
Journal: JAMA (1999)

During 1995-1996, 27% of recorded injury-related deaths in California involved firearms (California Department of Health Services [CDHS], unpublished data, 1995-1996). In 1996, CDHS began passive surveillance of "severe" firearm-related injuries (i.e., resulting in death or hospitalization) with resources provided by the California Wellness Foundation. To characterize firearm-related injuries in California, CDHS analyzed death records and hospital discharge records for 1995 and 1996 (the most recent years for which population data are available to calculate rates). This report summarizes the results of the analysis, which indicate that most of the 21,985 firearm-related injuries and deaths resulted from assault.

Delayed clinical response to hemodialysis in a patient with uremia
Authors: W. W. Smith
Journal: JAMA (1966)

ALTHOUGH THE GENESIS of the toxic state in uremia is not well understood, nearly all of its symptoms may be relieved by adequate hemodialysis. Maximum symptomatic and objective benefit are almost invariably evident within 48 hours of dialysis. This is the report of a uremic patient whose maximum improvement occurred 70 to 96 hours after dialysis. <h3>Report of a Case</h3> The patient was a 50-year-old white male physician who had chronic renal insufficiency from what was subsequently found to be chronic pyelonephritis with papillary necrosis. Symptoms and signs of uremia (nausea, fatigability, azotemia) were first noted in April 1965. He was admitted to Riverside Methodist Hospital in coma onMay 2. Physical examination revealed a comatose patient whose blood pressure was 160/100 mm Hg and no other abnormal findings. The relevant laboratory findings are recorded in the Table. On May 4, a six-hour hemodialysis was done with the Kolff twin
Adolescent Medicine
Authors: Iris F. Litt
Journal: JAMA (1991)

As the decade of the 1980s ends, it is timely to reflect on the health status of the adolescent and on the field of medicine devoted to its improvement, adolescent medicine. In 1990, adolescent medicine moved closer to becoming a subspecialty of pediatrics and internal medicine, pending the vote of the executive board of the American Board of Medical Specialties. With subboard status will come a longer (3-year) and more structured fellowship requirement and board examinations, both of which should improve the quality of research and the training of future pediatricians and internists in the United States. The past year saw an increase in cases of sexually transmitted diseases among adolescents. Syphilis increased in incidence, as did infections with the human immunodeficiency virus, but the major impact of adolescent infection with this virus will not be fully appreciated until adulthood, because of the long incubation period for the acquired immunodeficiency
