Updated Recommendations for Antimicrobial Prophylaxis Among Asymptomatic Pregnant Women After Exposure to Bacillus anthracis
Journal: JAMA (2001)

The antimicrobial of choice for initial prophylactic therapy among asymptomatic pregnant women exposed to Bacillus anthracis is ciprofloxacin, 500 mg twice a day for 60 days. In instances in which the specific B. anthracis strain has been shown to be penicillin-sensitive, prophylactic therapy with amoxicillin, 500 mg three times a day for 60 days, may be considered. Isolates of B. anthracis implicated in the current bioterrorist attacks are susceptible to penicillin in laboratory tests, but may contain penicillinase activity. Pencillins are not recommended for treatment of anthrax, where such penicillinase activity may decrease their effectiveness. However, penicillins are likely to be effective for preventing anthrax, a setting where relatively few organisms are present. Doxycycline should be used with caution in asymptomatic pregnant women and only when contraindications are indicated to the use of other appropriate antimicrobial drugs.

Circulation: Clinical Summaries
Journal: Circulation (2011)

Clinically, T-wave alternans (TWA), the surface ECG manifestation of action-potential repolarization alternans, is measured to estimate long-term risk of VT/VF.TWA and nonalternans variability (TWA/V) also increases immediately before ventricular tachycardia (VT) or fibrillation (VF) under some conditions.This suggests that TWA/V may warn of VT/VF in implantable cardioverterdefibrillator patients.Recently, we described a method for measuring TWA/V from intracardiac electrograms stored in implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) before VT/VF.In the present prospective, multicenter study, we found that electrogram TWA/V was greater (by a factor of 2 to 4) before VT/VF than during 4 independent types of control recordings.However, improved specificity is required before electrogram TWA/V can be applied as a clinical tool in ICDs.Software that measures electrogram TWA/V on a continuous, real-time basis in ICDs is necessary to optimize specificity of electrogram TWA/V.If VT/VF can be predicted with sufficient accuracy, even with a warning as short as Ϸ15 seconds, adaptive pacing algorithms could be initiated to prevent VT/VF.Warning times of several minutes would permit patients to cease activities such as driving and to avoid fall-related injuries or other accidents.Longer warnings might permit titration of antiarrhythmic drugs during periods of greater vulnerability to VT/VF.See p 1052.

Acceptability of Second-Step Treatments to Depressed Outpatients: A STAR*D Report
Authors: Stephen Wisniewski
Journal: American Journal of Psychiatry (2007)

Objective: Treatment of major depressive disorder typically entails implementing treatments in a stepwise fashion until a satisfactory outcome is achieved. This study sought to identify factors that affect patients' willingness to accept different second-step treatment approaches. Method: Participants in the Sequenced Treatment Alternatives to Relieve Depression (STAR*D) trial who had unsatisfactory outcomes after initial treatment with citalopram were eligible for a randomized second-step treatment trial. An equipoise-stratified design allowed participants to exclude or include specific treatment strategies. Analyses were conducted to identify factors associated with the acceptability of the following second-step treatments: cognitive therapy versus no cognitive therapy, any switch strategy versus any augmentation strategy (including cognitive therapy), and a medication switch strategy only versus a medication augmentation strategy only. Results: Of the 1,439 participants who entered second-step treatment, 1% accepted all treatment strategies, 3% accepted only cognitive therapy, and 26% accepted cognitive therapy (thus, 71% did not accept cognitive therapy). Those with higher educational levels or a family history of a mood disorder were more likely to accept cognitive therapy. Participants in primary care settings and those who experienced a greater side effect burden or a lower reduction in symptom severity with citalopram were more likely to accept a switch strategy as compared with an augmentation strategy. Those with concurrent drug abuse and recurrent major depressive disorder were less likely to accept a switch strategy. Conclusions: Few participants accepted all treatments. Acceptance of cognitive therapy was primarily associated with sociodemographic characteristics, while acceptance of a treatment switch was associated with the results of the initial treatment.
The Alveolar Macrophage
Authors: Drummond H. Bowden
Journal: Environmental Health Perspectives (1984)

The pulmonary macrophagic system is critical to the defense of the lung, keeping the alveoli clean and sterile and responding on demand with an adaptive outpouring of new cells into the air sacs. Under basal conditions alveolar macrophages, in common with other mononuclear phagocytes, are derived from the bone marrow. A population of macrophage precursors within the pulmonary interstitium provides a reserve pool capable of proliferation and delivery of phagocytes in response to unusually heavy loads of inhaled particles. This reserve system also produces macrophages when monocytic precursors in the bone marrow are depleted by diseases such as leukemia. The alveolar macrophage is destined to ingest particulate matter and to be eliminated along the mucociliary pathway; clearance by lymphatics is of minor importance and macrophages probably do not recross the alveolar epithelium to reach the pulmonary interstitial compartment. Although the protective role of the macrophage is dominant, this cell may participate, directly or indirectly, in the genesis of two major groups of chronic pulmonary disease, interstitial fibrosis and emphysema. Such inappropriate responses involve interactions with fibroblastic cells and tissue injury initiated by proteases secreted by the macrophage.
Subclavian vein catheterization during cardiopulmonary resuscitation. A prospective comparison of the supraclavicular and infraclavicular percutaneous approaches
Authors: S. Dronen
Journal: JAMA (1982)

Percutaneous access to the central venous circulation is indicated in the management of some cardiopulmonary arrests. We prospectively studied 89 attempted subclavian vein catheterizations in a total of 76 patients. There were 44 supraclavicular (SC) and 45 infraclavicular (IC) approaches. We found that the percutaneous SC route provides a better technique than the IC approach: it is associated with fewer failures, less difficulty in the mechanics of line insertion, a higher incidence of proper catheter tip location, and much less interference with cardiopulmonary resuscitation in normal, obese, and cachectic patient subgroups. Successful performance occurred despite a documented lack of physician experience with the SC technique, indicating that it should be taught during advanced cardiac life support training courses.

Short boys.
Authors: Medic Ja
Journal: BMJ (1973)

Concern about the slow growth of their child is a common reason for parents to seek medical advice.Anxiety is often greater uhen the child is a boy, and most doctors who deal with children are familiar with the problem of the schoollboy who is small for his age.While mixing with younger children in primary school he may not look or feel out of place, and difficulties may arise only when his secondary education begins and he is surrounded by bigger and more mature children.A youthful appearance with delayed pubertal development may add to his embarrassment and lead to much unhappiness.

New Legionella species caused Windsor, Ont., illness
Authors: C. Macek
Journal: JAMA (1982)

A previously unknown species of<i>Legionella</i>appears to have caused an outbreak of so-called Pontiac fever in a Windsor, Ontario, engine assembly plant in August 1981, according to Epidemic Intelligence Service investigators at Atlanta's Centers for Disease Control (CDC). Pontiac fever, which apparently first occurred in a group of office workers at the Pontiac, Mich, health department in 1968, is a nonpneumonic illness with severe influenzalike symptoms. People with isolated cases of Pontiac fever "would assume that they had a bad case of flu," says Loreen Herwaldt, MD. The cause of the original outbreak, and a couple of subsequent ones, has been established to be<i>Legionella pneumophila</i>. The newest findings concerning the disease were presented at the recent Interscience Conference on Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy in Miami Beach by Herwaldt, currently a fellow in infectious disease at Barnes Hospital, St Louis. She explained that the Canadian Ministry of Health, Ottawa,

Risk in acquiring toxoplasma antibodies. A study of 37 "normal" families
Authors: G. A. Lamb
Journal: JAMA (1968)

<i>Toxoplasma</i>dye-test antibodies were acquired by three of 189 members of a population of 37 "normal" families during a four-year period. The three members were aged 2, 3, and 17 years, respectively. Initially, 5% of those &lt;20 years had such antibodies in contrast with 38% of those ≥20 years of age. Antibodies were equally frequent in males and females. The three infections occurred during 7,176 susceptible person-months, or one per 2,392 person-months of overall observation and one per 1,831 person-months for those &lt;20 years.
Saline Solutions: The Quest for Fresh Water
Authors: Christopher G. Reuther
Journal: Environmental Health Perspectives (2000)

Despite steady advances in the technology, desalination remains one of the most expensive ways to produce potable water. But as water scarcity forces communities to find new sources of drinking water, scientists are developing innovations that may soon make desalination a reasonable option for many more communities. The newest approach to desalination is membrane systems, which include reverse osmosis and electrodialysis systems. Current research seeks to make these systems more effective and less likely to produce environmentally hazardous by-products. Many facilities use traditional distillation to desalinate water, and efforts are being made to combine membranes and distillation for more efficient systems.

Monitoring Operative Risk in the Elderly
Authors: Louis R. M. Del Guercio
Journal: JAMA (1980)

To reduce operative mortality in elderly patients, a system of preoperative staging, based on invasive monitoring, was developed. All of the 148 consecutive patients studied had been cleared for surgery by standard assessment, but only 13.5% had normal measured, hemodynamic, respiratory, and oxygen transport function. Mild physiologic aberrations, not requiring a delay in surgery, or more severe abnormalities, indicative of high operative risk, were found in 63.5% of the patients. Advanced and incorrigible functional defects found in the remaining 23% made them unacceptable risks for major surgery under general anesthesia, and all who underwent the planned operation in spite of the warning died. Invasive preoperative assessment of elderly patients discloses a high percentage of serious physiologic abnormalities requiring a delay in some and cancellation of the operation in others.
