Mammography screening should begin by age 50; some experts recommend that mammograms begin at age 40. Women with a history of breast cancer in a mother, sister, or daughter are at higher risk for breast cancer than women without such a history. Many doctors advise women with a family history of breast cancer to begin mammography during their 30s and 40s, but the benefit of that practice is ...

THE WATER SUPPLY IN SHIPS FROM ITS BEGINNING TO THE PRESENT TIME.
Authors: HENRY G. BEYER
Journal: JAMA (1905)

<h3>CHANGES IN OUR PRESENT METHOD OF STORING AND DISTRIBUTING WATER, RECENTLY PROPOSED.</h3> Certain well-marked sanitary defects inherent in our present methods of storing and distributing water on shipboard must have been noticed by every thoughtful naval surgeon, no matter how brief his experience at sea. These defects concern the water tanks, the pipe connections and the scuttlebutt. To begin with, one fundamental difficulty about the water tanks, located as they are, near the bottom of the ship, is, that it is at times almost impossible for a man in the hold to distinguish the one containing merely feed or other utility water from the one containing distilled water for drinking. Since much might depend on this under certain circumstances, measures should be taken to prevent such a mistake from occurring. A radical remedy has recently been suggested by Couteaud and Girard,<sup>12</sup>who recommended the establishment of two separate holds,

Levels of Diabetes-Related Preventive-Care Practices—United States, 1997-1999
Journal: JAMA (2000)

CDC HAS CONTRACTED WITH AVENTIS-Pasteur, Inc. (Av-P) for the production of 9 million doses of influenza vaccine for the 2000-01 season.This additional production ensures that approximately the same quantity of influenza vaccine is available for the 2000-01 season as the previous year. 1,2 The 9 million doses are not intended to substitute for vaccine that is already ordered and expected to be delivered.For the 1999-2000 influenza season, approximately 77 million doses of influenza vaccine were distributed in the United States, of which 3 million doses were returned to the manufacturers.For the 2000-2001 influenza season, distribution of approximately 75 million doses is anticipated, including the 9 million doses contracted by CDC.Av-P will give first priority to orders from providers who plan to vaccinate primarily high-risk persons.Applications for vaccine orders from health-care providers and programs should be sent directly to Av-P beginning November 3, 2000.Wholesale distributors can apply to purchase vaccine starting December 4, 2000, if doses remain available.Once an application has been received by Av-P, notification regarding order acceptance will be provided to the applicant before mid-December.Delivery of vaccine is anticipated to begin December 12, 2000, and end by early January 2001.Additional information about the application process and vaccine availability is available through Av-P, tele-phone (800) 720-8972, or World-Wide Web, http://www.vaccineshoppe.com(click on Fluzone (Registered) Application Form link).Completed application forms can be faxed to (888) 889-7129.Orders for this vaccine will not be taken by telephone.CDC's National Immunization Program (NIP) has developed an "Influenza Vaccine Availability" website that will provide information about the availability of influenza vaccine from manufacturers and wholesale distributors and will list state health departments that may have information about vaccine availability among local providers.This website will be updated weekly.The website can be accessed at http://www.cdc .gov/nip/flu-vac-supply.

Physiology
Authors: Hebbel E. Hoff, H. J. Scott
Journal: New England Journal of Medicine (1948)

An idea of the discreteness of the efferent control via the cortex is given by the evidence reported by Chang, Ruch and Ward, who with fixed routine of stimulation were able to delimit cortical areas controlling separately a single muscle operating at the ankle of the monkey, or even single parts of a muscle. Although it is clear from the work of Sherrington himself on the instability of motor points on the cortex that no entirely rigid anatomic pathway is responsible for these results, it is equally clear that out of a combination of anatomic pathway and stimulation characteristics a . . .

Unruly hair
Authors: P.S. MORTIMER
Journal: British Journal of Dermatology (1985)

One of the difficulties dermatologists encounter when attempting to diagnose rare scalp hair abnormalities is knowing where to start. Faced with a patient presenting with 'frizzy' hair it is helpful to have a systematic approach rather than simply 'thumb through the books'. Price (1979) classifies anomalies of the hair shaft in to those associated with increased fragility which consequently give rise to alopecia, and those which are not thus associated. There is a significant group of disorders which present with unruly hair, and these have been described under all manner of titles, including crinkly, woolly, kinky, crimped, frizzly, steely, spunglass, in an attempt to define their clinical appearance. This only serves to confuse the issue as no one word adequately describes many of these abnormalities. I would like to suggest an approach for categorizing and diagnosing unruly hair forms, based on a review of the literature as well as on experience with such cases. This is a modified and extended version of the only previous classification of unruly hair proposed by Lantis and Pepper (1978). I accept that there are some individual cases which are difficult to classify and remain unique.

Drug imprinting. 1984 update
Authors: W. O. Robertson
Journal: JAMA (1985)

PRIOR TO 1967, no reliable method short of chemical analysis existed to permit rapid, accurate identification of unknown tablets and capsules. Then, Eli Lilly and Co, Indianapolis, introduced an imprint system (Identicode) that used a three-digit alphanumeric code plus its logotype to perform such identification. Field testing confirmed that a better than 98% accuracy was achieved in less than 12 seconds.<sup>1</sup> In the succeeding decade many other pharmaceutical manufacturers adopted the technique; by 1978 more than 90% of the manufacturers illustrating tablets and capsules in the<i>Physicians' Desk Reference</i>were imprinting their products.<sup>2</sup>Nevertheless, some manufacturers declined to adopt the technology, limiting its potential effectiveness in assisting poison centers in identifying tablets or capsules in cases of accidental or purposeful overdoses, in enabling pharmacists to implement effective quality-control programs, and in helping physicians to identify new patients' prior drugs or weekend visitors' expiring prescriptions or to verify nursing

New questions about the old antishock suits
Authors: Kathryn Simmons
Journal: JAMA (1983)

From its inception in the early 1900s to its revival in the 1960s, the pneumatic antishock garment (PASG) has been met with both enthusiasm and caution. Participants in the recent meeting of the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma, held in Chicago, focused on the latter as they discussed several problems and precautions they believe should be noted by physicians and emergency medical technicians alike. The garment, also called "military antishock trousers" or the "G-suit" (because of some similarities to garments worn to protect pilots against gravity forces), is most commonly used to raise the blood pressure of the trauma victim suffering from hypovolemic hypotension in the field, according to Kenneth W. Burchard, MD, of the Rhode Island Hospital, Providence. It is believed to do this by increasing total peripheral resistance of the arterioles. But another use of the garment—for its possible autotransfusion effect—has generated debate. In theory, by
Commentary
Authors: R W Kendrick
Journal: British Journal of Sports Medicine (2001)

Objectives-(a)To determine the forcetime trace that occurs when a spring mounted simulated upper jaw is impacted; (b) to examine if mouthguards of variable quality have significant influence on such force-time traces; (c) to attempt to relate physical events to the profile of the force-time traces recorded.Methods-A simulated jaw, consisting of ceramic teeth inserted into a hard rubber arch reinforced with a composite jawbone, was fitted with various mouthguards as part of a previous round robin study.A clinical assessment distinguished good, bad, and poor mouthguards, and these were each fitted to the jaw, which was then submitted to instrumental impact tests under conditions expected to produce tooth fractures.The force-time trace was recorded for such impact events.Results-The spring mounting method caused two distinct peaks in the forcetime trace.The initial one was related to inertia eVects and showed an increase in magnitude with impactor velocity as expected.The second peak showed features that were related to the diVerences in the mouthguards selected.Conclusions-The use of a force washer within a conical ended impactor enabled force-time traces to be recorded during the impact of a spring mounted simulated jaw fitted with mouthguards of variable quality.The spring mounting system causes an initial inertial peak followed by a second peak once the spring mount has fully compressed.Good fitting guards, which keep most teeth intact, result in high stiVness targets that in turn generate high reaction forces in the impactor.If the spring mounting is omitted, the two peaks are combined to give even higher reaction forces.The force-time trace oVers some potential for assessing both overall mouthguard performance and individual events during the impact sequence.Mouthguards with good retention to the jaw remained attached during the impact event and helped to preserve the structural integrity of the target.This in turn developed high forces in the second part of the force-time trace.Guards that detached during impact and allowed tooth fractures showed lower forces in the second part of the test.The force profile measured oVered some quantitative support to, and agreement with, the observed clinical quality of the mouthguards.
